Brizee was sitting in her bedroom with her three best friends, Leighanne, Kristin, and Amanda. They were dating Nick, Brian, Kevin, and AJ of the Backstreet Boys. Brizee and Nick just got engaged and the girls are throwing a bachelorette party for her while Brian, Howie, AJ, and Kevin were throwing a bachelor party for Nick.

       “Okay, according to Howie, AJ called for a stripper, but Howie cancelled the stripper because we are going to be the entertainment, they are at Howie’s club and we are going to perform for them in our lingerie,” Amanda said.

       “Guys, I don’t know,” Brizee said.

       “We are going to sing Lady Marmalade from Moulin Rouge, I will sing Lil’ Kym’s part, Briz, you get Christina’s part, Kris, you get Mya’s part, while Leigh, you get Pink’s part, girls, we have see the video and seen them perform it, we can do this,” Amanda said.

       “I just don’t know about this, I don’t want to be in front of the guys in my lingerie,” Brizee said.

       “Briz, you prance around them in a bikini, you can do this, think of later on, when Nick drags you to a private room and has his way with you, this is going to be a major turn on for him,” Amanda said.

       “I just don’t know about this,” Brizee said.

       “Briz, it’s perfect, we are going to do this,” Leighanne said.

       “All right, fine,” Brizee said. They got dressed in their lingerie and put clothes on top and went to Tabu. Tommy was waiting for them. They heard music.

       “Howie said it will be just them five,” Amanda said quietly. Brizee went up and peeked out and saw the guys sitting around talking and drinking beer. She saw Nick drinking a bottle of water. She was glad he kept his promise not to drink during the bachelor party. She looked at the girls. Tommy got Howie and he came backstage.

       “Are you girls ready for this,” Howie said.

       “Yup,” Leighanne said. Howie went out and told the guys to face the stage. The curtains opened and they heard Amanda and soon saw the girls dressed in lingerie onstage singing Lady Marmalade. Brian, AJ, and Kevin looked at each other. Nick stared at Brizee and watched her. After they were done, Nick stood up and shook his head and walked out the door. Brizee ran backstage and got dressed and ran out just as Nick drove off. Leighanne, Kristin, and Amanda came out with Brian, Kevin, Howie, and AJ behind them.

       “Briz,” Leighanne said.

       “I told you I didn’t want to do it, this is all your fault, he hated it, I know he did, I wouldn’t be surprised if he called everything off,” Brizee said angrily.

       “Briz, let him calm down and you two can talk about it,” Amanda said.

       “He’ll end the relationship, I know he will, thanks to you, Amanda, this was all your idea, if he ends everything, it will be your fault!” Brizee said. She ran off and ran to the beach and collapsed in the sand and sat there thinking about everything. She went home and went to her room and saw Nick packing.

       “Nick,” Brizee said.

       “It’s a good thing I kept my house, if this were to happen,” Nick said.

       “Nick, it wasn’t my idea to do that, it was Amanda’s, they talked me into it, I didn’t want to do it,” Brizee said.

       “But you did it, you know what it did to me to see you dancing around onstage in your lingerie, in front of the guys, it killed me, because they were seeing you the way I see you every night!” Nick said as he continued packing.

       “They have seen me in a bikini, Nick, I didn’t know seeing me in lingerie would make a difference,” Brizee said.

       “But they did!” Nick said angrily.

       “Is it over?” Brizee asked.

       “I want my ring back,” Nick said grabbing her hand and taking it off. He got his stuff and walked out the door. Brizee sank to the floor crying. She heard footsteps.

       “Briz,” Leighanne said.

       “It’s over, everything is over,” Brizee said crying.

       “Oh god, Briz, I’m sorry, we thought he would be happy,” Leighanne said. She looked up at her. She saw Amanda and Kristin behind her.

       “Happy, watching his fiancée prancing around onstage in lingerie in front of his friends, and that would make him happy, no, it’s the opposite, he is mad, he broke off the engagement and left me, thanks a lot you guys, some friends you are, get out, leave me alone!” Brizee said. Amanda, Leighanne, and Kristin left. Brizee laid on the bed and cried. 

Chapter 2

Three months have gone by. Brian, Howie, AJ, and Kevin have tried to get Nick to realize what he was doing but he wouldn’t listen. The girls have been trying to talk to Brizee but she wouldn’t talk to them. Finally Leighanne got through to her and they talked and got together.

       “We were suppose to get married tomorrow,” Brizee said.

       “Briz, the guys can’t get through to Nick,” Leighanne said.

       “I don’t see what the problem was, I mean, the guys seen me in a bikini, they didn’t care,” Brizee said.

       “I know, they don’t think of you differently,” Leighanne said.

       “I wish Nick would come through that door and beg me to take him back,” Brizee said.

       “Better yet, sing a song to him, he’ll be at Tabu tonight and it’s open mike night, let’s sing a duet, and then you can sing a song to him,” Leighanne said.

       “Like what song?” Brizee asked.

       “Find one that will make him want you back,” Leighanne said.

That night, Brizee was backstage. Leighanne was with her. Brizee peeked out and saw Nick sitting at the bar talking with Brian and AJ. Amanda went over to Nick.

       “Hey, Nick,” Amanda said.

       “Hi Amanda, where’s Briz at, she wasn’t home, I tried calling, but no answer, I miss her so much, I knew I should have been happy to see her up there, it was much better than seeing a stripper,” Nick said.

       “She’s around,” Amanda said. Nick looked at her.

       “You mean she’s here?” Nick asked. Amanda nodded to the stage. Nick turned and saw Brizee and Leighanne standing there with microphones and the music to Does He Love You started up and Leighanne and Brizee sang the song together.  After the song was over, Leighanne left the stage. The music to Trisha Yearwood’s song, How Do I Live, started up and she sang the song looking at Nick. After the song was over, he ran up onstage and pulled her into his arms and kissed her deeply. Everyone clapped.

       “I’m so sorry, I was a jerk, I just got jealous because everyone saw you in what I saw you in every night and I just got upset,” Nick said.

       “They don’t get to see me in anything less than lingerie or bikini, only you, Nicky,” Brizee said. He got out the engagement ring and slipped it on her finger.

       “I never want to let you go again, I hope you didn’t stop with the wedding plans,” Nick said.

       “The girls wouldn’t let me, they continued planning without me, and they told me what they did and they knew how I wanted everything,” Brizee said.

       “Everyone, Brizee and I are engaged!” Nick said. The crowd cheered. Leighanne, Kristin, and Amanda ran to Brizee while the guys went to Nick.

       “Thank god, you came to your senses,” Brian said.

       “Yeah, man, what made you thought that we would think of Brizee different, I mean, all the girls were up there, not her, none of us thought anything different,” AJ said.

       “Yeah, I didn’t go after Leigh or Amanda, and Brian and AJ didn’t go after Kris, there was nothing to worry about, Nick, we know Briz is your girl,” Kevin said.

       “I know, man, I don’t know what I was thinking,” Nick said.

       “Just think, now, she’s yours forever,” AJ said.

       “Yeah, I know, officially tomorrow, she’ll be my wife,” Nick said. The guys smiled.

After the club closed, the girls were pulling Brizee away from Nick, but she wouldn’t budge.

       “Briz, the wedding is tomorrow, you can’t see him until tomorrow,” Leighanne said.

       “I know,” Brizee said as she and Nick continued kissing. Brian and AJ pulled them apart.

       “You two have the rest of your lives to kiss and other stuff, but tonight, you two have to be apart,” AJ said.

       “Who cares!” Nick said.

       “It’s tradition!” Leighanne said as they pulled Brizee out the door. Nick looked at Brian and AJ.

       “It is tradition, to be separated the night before the big day and not see each other until the wedding, you’ll see her tomorrow, man,” Brian said.

       “I know, I just want to hold her all night,” Nick said.

       “You will get to do that for the rest of your lives, Frack,” Brian said.

       “I know,” Nick said. They went to Brian’s house.

Chapter 3

The next day, everyone was at the church getting ready. All the guests were arriving. Leighanne, Kristin, and Amanda were helping Brizee get ready.

       “I can’t believe this is happening,” Brizee said smiling.

       “You will be marrying the man you love,” Leighanne said.

       “I love him so much, I can’t wait to be Mrs. Nickolas Gene Carter,” Brizee said. She looked at her engagement ring and smiled. They continued getting ready for the wedding.

An hour later, they were at the altar. Brizee and Nick were married and shared their first kiss as husband and wife. At the reception, Leighanne, Kristin, Amanda, and Brizee were talking.

       “Oh great, the ex-girlfriends,” Leighanne said as she saw Brian’s ex, Samantha with AJ’s ex, Marissa, and Nick’s ex-girlfriend, Willa come in.

       “What are they doing here?” Kristin said.

       “Girls, it’s showtime,” Amanda said. Kristin went to listen in and came back.

       “They want Nick, AJ, and Brian back,” Kristin said. They went onstage. Howie talked to them.

       “Ladies and Gentleman, would Samantha, Willa, and Marissa come to the front of the crowd, please,” Amanda said. They came up front and looked at them.

       “Okay, what do you want!” Marissa said.

       “This song is dedicated to you three girls, from me, Brizee, and Leighanne,” Amanda said. They performed Dream’s song, He Loves You Not. Brizee had Melissa’s part while Amanda sung the lead part. Brizee was also glad she changed into black knit pants and a black shoes and a tank top. After they were done, Willa, Samantha, and Marissa came over to them. Brizee and Willa stood nose to nose, as did Marissa and Amanda, and Leighanne and Samantha.

       “I want Nick back, Brizee,” Willa said.

       “Why, so you can hurt him again, did your record deal fall through, Willa, there is no way you are getting him back, he is my husband now,” Brizee said.

       “AJ was mine first, Amanda, let him go,” Marissa said.

       “Why, so you can hurt him, you broke up with him because he broke promises, but he has never broke one to me so buzz off,” Amanda said.

       “I want Brian back, he’s the only one for me,” Samantha said.

       “I thought you two moved on with your lives, you were happy without him, he is mine now,” Leighanne said. Brian, AJ, and Nick looked at each other. The guys got onstage and performed Get Another Boyfriend. Then they performed Don’t Want You Back. They danced to both songs. After they were done, Willa, Samantha, and Marissa walked out.

Chapter 4

       “Girls, we have to keep our eyes open, they want our guys back, so we have to hold onto them tighter than ever,” Amanda said as she, Leighanne, Kristin, and Brizee talked after Marissa, Willa, and Samantha left.

       “I know, I just got Nick back yesterday, I’m not letting him go, not now, especially since he and I are married,” Brizee said. They didn’t see Nick, AJ, and Brian go out the door. Kevin and Howie went after them.

       “Brian and I are deeply in love, I can’t imagine my life without him,” Leighanne said.

       “Yeah, J and I are so good together, my life would be empty without him,” Amanda said. Kevin and Howie ran up to them.

       “Hey,” Kevin said.

       “Hi honey, everything okay?” Kristin said.

       “Willa, Samantha, and Marissa kidnapped Nick, Brian, and AJ, outside, they went out to make sure the girls were gone, they dragged the guys into a limo,” Kevin said.

       “What,” Leighanne said.

       “The limo drove off before we got to it,” Howie said. Brizee passed out. Kevin caught her and held her. He got her to wake up and she looked at him.

       “Hey, it’ll be okay, Briz,” Kevin said.

       “Kevin, you guys have to find them, you have to find Nick, it’s our wedding night, he can’t miss it!” Brizee said as she started to cry. Kevin hugged her.

       “No one will give up until he is back with you, Briz,” Kevin said. She cried as she held onto him.

Three days went by and no sign of Nick, Brian, and AJ, or Marissa, Samantha, or AJ. Leighanne, Amanda, and Brizee were at Brizee’s house. Brizee refused to get out of bed.  Kristin came in.

       “Anything?” Leighanne asked.

       “No, Kevin and Howie have been to Marissa’s house, nothing there, nothing at Willa’s and Samantha’s houses, it’s like they disappeared,” Kristin said.

       “Brizee refuses to get out of bed until Nick comes home, which will be who knows when,” Amanda said.

       “Amanda, he disappeared from their wedding reception, they didn’t have a honeymoon or a wedding night,” Leighanne said.

       “I know, okay, I have a heart, but it’s not here, Marissa has my heart somewhere, I want my AJ!” Amanda said crying. The phone rang. They stared at it. They heard it picked up. They went upstairs and walked into the bedroom as Brizee hung up the phone.

       “Briz,” Leighanne said.

       “That was Nick, he said he filed for an annulment, he wants Willa back, and he told me to tell you that AJ is back with Marissa, and Brian is back with Samantha, we lost them, guys,” Brizee said.

       “This has to be a mistake,” Leighanne said.

       “Nick never lies to me,” Brizee said lying down. She began crying. Kristin called Kevin. Leighanne and Amanda sat down on the bed in shock.

Meanwhile…at the hiding place in Willa’s basement of her house in New York. Nick sat there looking at Brian and AJ.

       “I hate this, I should have been on my honeymoon now,” Nick said as he tried to get free from the ropes. They were tied to chairs.

       “I hope the girls realized that we were forced to break up with them,” Brian said.

       “If anyone will figure it out, it would be Mandabear,” AJ said.

       “I don’t want an annulment,” Nick said.

       “We know you don’t,” Brian said. Willa came downstairs and went over to Nick and kissed him deeply.

       “I got the annulment papers to be sent to Brizee, all she has to do is sign them and your marriage to her will be no more,” Willa said. Nick glared at her.

       “You are sick, you know that,” Nick said.

       “Yeah, and you are the only one who can make me feel better,” Willa said. She straddled Nick’s lap and unzipped his pants and freed his length and stroked it.

       “I’m not wearing anything under this skirt, you know what you are going to do now,” Willa said.

       “Yeah, throw up,” Nick said.

       “Nope, you are going to fuck me,” Willa said.

       “Don’t make me throw up,” Nick said. She guided him inside her and she moved against him. Nick didn’t even look at her. She came around him.

       “You were suppose to come,” Willa said.

       “Yeah, well, I didn’t and I never will, because I didn’t feel anything, you make me sick, Willa,” Nick said. She fixed his pants and stood up and slapped him.

       “Willa, don’t slap them,” Marissa said.

       “I wanted to fuck with Nick, he didn’t come!” Willa said.

       “You didn’t make him come because of his weakness, now will him come to save his precious Brizee,” Marissa said.

       “Marissa!” AJ said.

       “Yes, AJ,” Marissa said.

       “You leave them alone!” AJ said.

       “Don’t boss me around,” Marissa said.

       “You are a bitch,” AJ said. She got on top of him and straddled him.

       “You are going to fuck me and you will come inside me,” Marissa said.

       “I rather be sick,” AJ said. He twisted in his chair and sent her to the floor. He turned to see Willa fucking Nick again. He heard Nick moaning.

       “Nick, don’t you dare come!” AJ said. Nick cried out.

       “He came because I know his secret, his special spot,” Willa said getting up and fixing his pants. Marissa and Willa went upstairs. AJ and Brian glared at Nick who had his eyes closed.

       “Nick, how could you come inside her, if she wasn’t on birth control, she could have your baby and you will lose Briz,” AJ said.

       “I tried, okay, but she found the spot, that makes me come, god, what have I done, I should have been stronger, for Briz,” Nick said as he began to cry.

       “Do you want Willa back,” Brian said.

       “Hell no!” Nick said angrily.

Three weeks went by. Nick, Brian, and AJ were still in Willa’s basement. Willa came downstairs smiling.

       “Nicky, guess what, I’m three weeks pregnant with your baby, we are going to be a family, oh and Brizee signed the annulment papers, so you are single and free to be with me,” Willa said.

       “You bitch,” AJ said.

       “Willa, you won, I’m yours now, you can untie me, baby,” Nick said in a nice sweet tone. Willa smiled and untied him and he stood up and stretched. He pulled Willa close and hugged her. Then before she knew it, she was tied to the chair and looking up at him.

       “How does it feel,” Nick said. He untied Brian and AJ. Brian called the police. They arrived and arrested Samantha, Marissa, and Willa.

Meanwhile…at Brizee’s house

       “Briz, why did you sign the annulment papers?” Leighanne said. Brizee smiled.

       “They were fake, I worked all night and typed up fake ones, the real papers have the Florida State Seal on them, the fake ones don’t,” Brizee said.

       “You mean, you and Nick are still married,” Leighanne said.

       “Yup!” Brizee said. The front door opened and closed. They looked at each other. Amanda, Leighanne, and Brizee looked at the doorway of the kitchen and saw Brian, AJ, and Nick standing there. Leighanne ran to Brian and hugged him. Amanda jumped on AJ and hugged them. They left. Nick stood there. Brizee went to him and hugged him.

       “Welcome home, Nicky,” Brizee said.

       “Why did you sign the annulment papers,” Nick said.

       “How did you?” Brizee asked.

       “Willa told me,” Nick said.

       “Well, she didn’t know that the papers I signed were fake ones,” Brizee said.

       “What,” Nick said.

       “I sat up all night one night, typing up fake annulment papers, the difference was that the real papers had the Florida State Seal, but the fake ones didn’t.” Brizee said. Nick smiled and kissed her deeply. He carried her upstairs and went to take a shower and came out and laid beside her and removed her clothes and made love to her. Afterwards they went to sleep holding each other.

Chapter 5

Five months later, Brizee decided to go to the state prison where Samantha, Willa, and Marissa were sent to. They were going to be there for 10 years. Brizee sat at a table waiting to see Willa. The guard brought Willa in and sat her down and went to stand by the door.

       "Hello Brizee," Willa said.

       "Are you still wanting my husband," Brizee said.

       "You mean ex, since you signed the annulment papers," Willa said.

       "Nope, those were fake, I burned the real papers," Brizee said

       "Well, then, you might want a divorce, because the whole time Nick was with me, we had hot sex, and here's proof," Willa said. She stood up and showed her belly.

       "I'm having your husband's child, at first he didn't want to come, he wanted to be strong but he couldn't do it, he had to come, he couldn't hold it in, it was hot, steamy, sex, the result, a baby," Willa said. Brizee stood up.

       "You raped him," Brizee said.

       "Nope, he wanted it, he said so himself, why else would you find out this way, why hasn't he told you about this," Willa said. Brizee walked out the door and ran to her car and got in and collapsed against the steering wheel and cried. She drove to a lawyer's office and talked about divorce papers. She told the lawyer where Nick was and left. She drove to her parent's house. She went up to the door and went in and her mother hugged her. She went upstairs to the guest bedroom and collapsed on the bed and cried softly.

Chapter 6

Nick, Brian, Howie, AJ, and Kevin were at the studio recording. They were going over music when a man came in.

       "Nick Carter?" he asked. Nick looked up.

       "Yes," Nick said standing up. The man handed him an envelope. Nick opened it and pulled out the papers and read them.

       "Divorce papers, what the hell is this," Nick said.

       "And here is a restraining order, you are not allowed in 100 yards of your wife, if you do go near her, you will go to jail," the man said. He left. Nick stood there. He read the papers.

       "Nick," Brian said.

       "I don't understand, everything was fine when I left, we hugged and kissed, she said see you when you get home, I don't understand this!" Nick said. He threw the papers down and went crazy and started throwing things. Kevin and Brian sat him down and Brian held onto him.

       "God, what did I do to deserve this!" Nick cried. AJ hung up and came over.

       "Willa," AJ said.

       "What," Nick said.

       "Brizee went to see Willa, she found out about the baby," AJ said. Nick felt sick and ran into the bathroom.

       "AJ, what happens now," Kevin said.

       "Brian, you and I will go to Brizee, Kev, you and Howie, take care of Nick, don't let him be alone," AJ said. Brian and AJ left.

Chapter 7

Brian and AJ went to Brizee's parents' house. They rang the doorbell. Brizee opened the door and saw them. She let them in and closed the door. They sat down in the living room.

       "Briz, Nick didn't want to sleep with Willa, she had him tied to a chair, she did everything, she tried once but he wouldn't come so she went for his spot that makes him come, it was her doing, he didn't want it, he loves you," Brian said.

       "Briz, this happened in front of me and Brian, we are not lying to you, he wanted to come home to you, he didn't want her," AJ said.

       "She's having his baby," Brizee said.

       "He doesn't want it, he wants a baby with you," Brian said.

       "Briz, he loves you, he got the divorce papers and went crazy, he was throwing things, when I found out why you sent the papers, he got sick, girl, he loves you more than anything and he can't be without you, he needs you, baby, you need to go to him and you need to forget about the divorce and restraining order and be with him!" AJ said.

       "AJ's right, Briz, if you don't go back to him, who knows what Nick will do, he needs you, Briz, he loves you, I know my best friend, he can't go on without you," Brian said.

       "You guys aren't lying to me, are you," Brizee siad.

       "Brizee, no, we aren't, if we lied to you, Leighanne and Amanda would kill us, we would never lie to you," AJ said.

       "You know we would never lie to you, Briz," Brian said. Brizee made a call and hung up.

       "Where is he?" Brizee asked.

       "We'll take you to him," Brian said. They left and AJ called Kevin and Kevin told him they were at his house. They went to Kevin's house and got out and went inside. Kristin hugged Brizee and told her that Nick was asleep in one of the guest rooms. She told Kristin to get the girls and she told the guys to get Nick to Tabu and left with Amanda, Leighanne and Kristin. They were backstage and Brizee told them her idea. They smiled and decided to stay in their clothes for the song. Leighanne peeked out just as Brian, Howie, AJ, Kevin, and Nick came in and sat down. She was glad they were the only ones there. The curtains opened and Amanda stood there. The music started up and they came out and performed Lady Marmalade. Nick watched Brizee as she performed. After they were done, she got offstage and went to him and kissed him hungrily.

       "I'm so sorry," Brizee said.

       "No, I'm sorry, I should have been stronger and not let her use that spot to make me come, I didn't want to, god, I want to go back and change it," Nick said.

       "Nicky, let's put the past behind us and move on, let's start over fresh, baby," Brizee said.      
       "I'm all for that," Nick said. They kissed deeply.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Okay, I know that you hate it when I have dreams but I'm sorry, it makes the stories more interesting but confusing at times! It's back to Chapter 1 after their performance.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The girls went backstage and put their clothes back on and went out to the guys. Brizee looked at Nick. He took her hand and pulled her into one of the private rooms and looked around and closed the door and locked it. He pushed her against the wall and kissed her deeply.

       "Do you have any idea what it did to me seeing you up there dancing in your lingerie?" Nick asked.

       "No, but you could tell me," Brizee said as he kissed her neck.

       "It made me so hard that I need to be inside you," Nick said removing her clothes and saw her lingerie. He growled and pulled off the lingerie. His clothes went flying and he pressed her against the wall and she held onto him as he made love to her. She buried her face in his neck as he went fast and hard. He came inside her, spilling himself deep inside her. He let her down and kissed her deeply.

       "I can't wait until next week, when you are my wife, and our wedding night, where I can have my way with you all night long and the night after that and the night after that and so on, god, I want you again," Nick said picking her up and made love to her again. After coming inside her, he let her down and kissed her deeply and passionately.

       "I love you, Nicky," Brizee said.

       "I love you, too, baby," Nick said. They kissed and held each other.

Chapter 8

A week later, it was the night before the wedding. Nick was going to go stay at Brian's. Brizee and Nick were kissing as Brian was trying to pull him out the door.

       "God, Frick, hold on!" Nick said. He kissed Brizee hungrily.

       "Nick, come on!" Brian said.

       "Just wait, I want to say bye to Briz," Nick said.

       "You have, now come on!" Brian said.

       "Just hold on!" Nick said pulling away from him and holding Brizee and kissing her deeply.

       "I'll see you tomorrow," Brizee said between kisses.

       "I can't wait, I love you," Nick said.

       "I love you, too," Brizee said. They kissed again and Nick was dragged out the door by Brian. Brizee closed the door and locked it. She went to bed knowing that the next day, she will become Mrs. Nick Carter.

Nick stood in front of the mirror at the church the next day. He looked at himself and smiled. Brian came in with Howie, AJ, and Kevin behind him.

       "Looking good, Nick," Kevin said.

       "I can't believe this day has finally come," Nick said.

       "You will be marrying the woman you love," Kevin said.

       "God, I can't wait, is she here?" Nick asked.

       "Yup, she arrived a half hour ago and the girls are busy getting her ready, the guests are arriving," Brian said.

       "I love Briz so much, I can't imagine my life without her, guys, we have to sing Drowning, I want to sing it to her, " Nick said.

       "We will, Nick," Kevin said.

       "Thanks, guys, for being here for me, for everything, I don't know what I would do without you guys, you four are truly brothers, my best buds," Nick said. They did a group hug.

       "Nick, we wouldn't miss this for the world," AJ said. The door opened and Jane came in. Nick turned and looked at his mother. She smiled and came over to him.

       "My big boy, you look so handsome, I can't believe this day has come, my first son is getting married," Jane said. She hugged him.

       "Mom, thanks for being here and everything," Nick said.

       "Honey, I wouldn't miss my oldest son marrying the woman he loves, and who your father and I love as well, we can't wait to have her as a daughter-in-law, I can tell that she is your soulmate," Jane said. Nick hugged her.

Chapter 9

The ceremony began. Nick stood there with Brian, AJ, and Aaron and watched Leighanne, Kristin, and Amandd walk down the aisle. Then the wedding march started and Nick looked and saw Brizee walking down the aisle escorted by her father. They stood in front of him and Nick took Brizee's hand and they faced the minister. They exchanged vows and rings. Nick and the guys went over and Brian turned on the stereo and the music to Drowning started. Nick came over during his part and sang to her. After they were done, Nick came back over and stood beside her and took her hand.

       "I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss your bride," the minister said. Nick turned and lifted her veil and cupped her face in his hands and kissed her tenderly. Everyone clapped.

       "Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Nickolas Gene Carter," the minister said. Nick and Brizee walked up the aisle. Once outside the doors, he pulled her close and kissed her deeply.

       "We did it, baby," Nick said.

       "Yes we did," Brizee said grinning. They went to the reception. Leighanne and Kristin came up to Brizee.

       "Briz, what's wrong," Leighanne said.

       "I have this feeling that something will happen, I can't lose sight of Nick, I'm scared that he'll disappear," Brizee said.

       "Brizee, you think he would just disappear, girl, you two just got married," Leighanne said.

       "I know, but I have this feeling that three ex-girlfriends will come in and ruin everything," Brizee said.

       "Well, maybe you are right, Marissa, Samantha, and Willa just walked in," Leighanne said.

       "Kris, distract them, Leigh, get Amanda and you two get AJ and Brian into hiding until they are gone, I'll get Nick," Brizee said. She went over to Nick and pulled him into a private room and looked around and closed the door and locked it and leaned against it.

       "Baby, what's wrong," Nick said.

       "Willa is here, with Marissa and Samantha," Brizee said.

       "What," Nick said.

       "Shh, I can't let Willa find you," Brizee said.

       "Baby, you have nothing to worry about," Nick said.

       "Nick, please, just stay here with me, please, I have this bad feeling that something will happen and I will lose you," Brizee said.

       "Briz, you won't lose me," Nick said.

       "Nick, please, just stay with me, here," Brizee said hugging him.

       "Okay, I will," Nick said. He held her close.

       "I just love you so much, I can't stand the thought of losing you," Brizee said.

       "I love you, too, baby," Nick said. They kissed deeply. He pressed her against the wall.

       "God I want you," Nick said kissing her neck.

       "Nicky, wait until we are in our honeymoon suite," Brizee said.

       "I can't wait, I have to have you now," Nick said. They heard Kristin's voice.

       "Briz, Leigh, Amanda, they are gone and won't be coming back or bothering you all anymore," Kristin said from the hallway. Brizee opened the door and came out just as Leighanne and Amanda came out with Brian and AJ behind them.

       "Are you sure?" Brizee asked.

       "Yeah, Briz, they just wanted to wish you all the best, Willa is dating one of her dancers and they are really in love, Samantha is still with Stephen, and Marissa is dating her mother's friend's son, you missed meeting them, even Kevin and Howie saw how they were, you have nothing to worry about," Kristin said. They went out and enjoyed the reception.

Chapter 10

Nick and Brizee got on a plane for Hawaii. When they arrived, they went to the hotel and went to the honeymoon suite. Nick opened the door and picked Brizee up and carried her into the room. He closed the door and locked it. He put her down and kissed her hungrily.

       "I love you, Mrs. Carter," Nick said.

       "I love you, Mr. Carter, now you can have your way with me," Brizee said stepping back and pulling her dress off to reveal a sexy nightie. Nick stood there and gazed at her. He picked her up and laid her on the bed and removed his clothes and he pulled off the nightie and they slowly made passionate love. He collapsed on top of her and smiled.

       "I love you so much," Nick said.

       "I love you, too," Brizee said. He kissed her hungrily and they made love again.

A week later, they returned home and got into married life. Nick had to go to LA with the guys to start recording the new album. They were kissing goodbye.

       "God, I wish you could come," Nick said.

       "You wouldn't get anything done if I went," Brizee as he kissed her neck.

       "I just want to hold you every night," Nick said.

       "You need to concentrate, baby, I'll be fine, Leigh, Kris, and Manda will be here, we all are going to stay here so we all won't be alone," Brizee said. He kissed her deeply.

       "I just love you so much, we just got married a week ago, and now I'm leaving you," Nick said.

       "We have forever together, Nicky," Brizee said. He smiled and kissed her.

       "Forever isn't long enough," Nick said between kisses. The front door opened and Leighanne, Kristin, and Amanda came in with their bags. Brian, Kevin, and AJ followed.

       "Nick, time to go," Kevin said. Nick groaned and continued kissing Brizee.

       "Nick, now!" Kevin said.

       "Fuck off, Kevin!" Nick said. Kevin stormed out the door. Brian went after him to talk to him. Nick hugged Brizee.

       "I better go, I love you, and I'll call you every night," Nick said.

       "I love you, too," Brizee said. Nick left with AJ.

Chapter 11

(**means dream)

The girls sat down in the living room and talked. The girls asked Brizee about her honeymoon.

       "We never left the bed, I wouldn't be surprised if I became pregnant," Brizee said.

       "You are so lucky to be married, Briz, Brian never has talked about marriage," Leighanne said.

       "Neither has Kevin," Kristin said.

       "Or AJ," Amanda said.

       "I'm going to go rest, I'll be back down later," Brizee said. she went upstairs and laid down and went to sleep.

**The doorbell rang. Brizee got up and opened the door and saw two police officers standing there.

       "Mrs. Carter?" one officer asked.

       "Yes," Brizee said.

       "I'm Officer Davis and this is my partner, Officer Martin, may we come in?" Officer Davis said.

       "Uh, sure," Brizee said. She stepped aside. The officers came in. Brizee closed the door and led them in the living room.

       "These are my friends, this is Leighanne Wallace, Kristin Willits, and Amanda Latona," Brizee said.

       "Hi," Leighanne, Kristin, and Amanda said.

       "Mrs. Carter, we have some news about your husband and his bandmates," Officer Davis said.

       "Brian Littrell is my boyfriend," Leighanne said.

       "AJ McLean is my boyfriend," Amanda said.

       "Kevin Richardson is my boyfriend," Kristin said.

       "What about them, Officer Davis?" Brizee asked.

       "The private jet they were on crashed after takeoff, there was no survivors, I'm sorry, Mrs. Carter, girls," Officer Martin said.

       "No, there has to be a mistake," Kristin said.

       "I'm sorry, there was no mistake," Officer Davis said holding up Nick's wedding ring. Brizee took it and recognized it.

       "NO!" Brizee cried as she sank to the floor. Leighanne hugged her as they cried. Kristin and Amanda sat there crying. The cops left them alone and the girls were faced with the loss of the guys they loved and knew nothing would ever be the same.**
Brizee sat up and looked around and saw she was in her bedroom and  she grabbed the phone and heard Brian's voice.

       "Yeah, we are on the DLS Foundation jet," Brian said.

       "I miss you already," Leighanne said.

       "Yeah, where's Brizee, Nick is like dying to talk to her," Brian said. Brizee smiled.

       "She's sleeping, I think Nick wore her out on the honeymoon," Leighanne said.

       "I'll have Nick call back later," Brian said.

       "Brian, I'm here," Brizee said.

       "Brizee, I thought you were asleep," Leighanne said.

       "I had a bad dream and woke up and I was going to call Nick and heard you two talking," Brizee said.

       "Here's Nick," Brian said.

       "Brizee," Nick said. Leighanne hung up the phone downstairs.

       "Nicky, god, I miss you so much already, I had this bad dream that you guys were on a private jet and it crashed after take off," Brizee said.

       "Oh baby, I'm fine, the plane is fine, we are over Texas right now, nothing to worry about, honey, it was a dream, that's all, I'm fine, the guys are fine," Nick said.

       "I love you," Brizee said.

       "I love you, too, I'll call you when we land, okay?" Nick said.

       "Okay, bye Nicky," Brizee said.

       "Bye baby," Nick said. Brizee hung up and laid down and smiled.

Chapter 12

Three days went by and Leighanne went to check on Brizee and found her gone. She went downstairs.

       "Briz is gone," Leighanne said.

       "Maybe she went out," Kristin said.

       "Yeah, maybe," Leighanne said sitting down.

Meanwhile....

Brizee's plane landed in L.A. She went to the studio and saw the guys talking. Brian looked up and saw her and nudged Nick. Nick saw her and grinned and ran to her and picked her up and swung her around and hugged her tight. She buried her face in his neck.

       "Baby, I missed you so much," Nick said.

       "I missed you, too," Brizee said.

       "Why are you here, baby," Nick said.

       "I need to see you, I was going crazy, I kept having those dreams, I couldn't take it anymore, I had to see you," Brizee said. He held her close. She rested her head on his chest.

       "Briz," Brian said. Brizee saw him and smiled and hugged him.

       "Hey Brian," Brizee said.

       "Did the girls come with you?" Brian asked.

       "I came alone, they don't know I'm out here," Brizee said.

       "Guys, I'm going to go talk to Briz alone," Nick said taking her hand and they went to his hotel room.  Nick closed the door and locked it and turned and saw her standing at the window. He went over and stood behind her and wrapped his arms around her and rested his chin on her shoulder.

       "Baby, I'm okay," Nick said.

       "I'm scared, Nicky, that I will lose you," Brizee said.

       "You will not lose me, Briz, we are married," Nick said.

       "I just have this feeling that I'm going to lose you, Nick, I can't get rid of it, no matter what, I can't get rid of it," Brizee said.

       "Briz, look at me," Nick said turning her around and looked at him. He cupped her face in his hands.

       "You are not going to lose me, baby, I love you too much to let you go, you are my life now, besides music," Nick said.

       "Please don't leave me, Nick, I can't bear it if I lost you," Brizee said. Nick kissed her hungrily.

       "You are NEVER going to lose me and I am never going to leave you, baby, I promise with all my heart and soul," Nick said.

       "Prove it to me, Nicky," Brizee said. He picked her up and carried her to the bedroom and closed the door and locked it. He put her down. He removed her clothes and removed his clothes and picked her up and laid her on the bed and laid on top of her and he kissed her deeply. He slowly and gently made love to her.

       "I love you, baby, and I could never let you go," Nick said. He laid beside her and pulled her close.

Chapter 13

The next day, Nick took Brizee to the airport. They kissed goodbye.

       "I'll see you when I get home, and I will call you every night, baby," Nick said hugging her tight.

       "I love you, Nick, so much," Brizee said.

       "I love you, too, baby," Nick said. He kissed her deeply and she got on the plane and went back to Florida. Nick went back to the studio and saw the guys.

       "Nick," Kevin said.

       "Kevin, don't start with me, okay, this is so not fair, after a couple weeks of marriage, I'm pulled from my wife by you to come out here and record an album, you said you wanted it done, well, you could wait until I had time to spend with my wife, I'm sick of you thinking that you are the boss around here, you are not the only one in the group, there are four others who are in the group, that's including me, the newlywed, I hate that you think you are the boss around here, I'm sick of it, I don't want to quit the group but if you keep this up, I just might," Nick said.

       "Nick, calm down, I was just going to tell you that we talked and agreed that we should take two weeks off from recording and spend time with our families," Kevin said.

       "Yeah, we will be off for two weeks and then come back for two weeks to record and then take two more weeks, and so on," AJ said.

       "Can I go home to my wife?" Nick said.

       "We will be leaving in an hour, let's get our stuff together," Kevin said. They went to the hotel.

Meanwhile......about seven hours later.....

Brizee sat there. Leighanne and Kristin stood there. Amanda sat there. Brizee looked at them.

       "I'm sorry, I had to go see him," Brizee said.

       "Briz, we aren't mad at you, but we wish you would have told us so we could go with you and see Brian, AJ, and Kevin," Leighanne said. Brizee looked at her.

       "I know, I'm sorry," Brizee said. They heard the door open and close and Brian, Kevin, AJ, and Nick came into the living room. Brian and Leighanne left. So did Kevin and Kristin and AJ and Amanda. Brizee jumped on Nick.

       "Hey, what's up," Brizee said.

       "We are going to record every two weeks, two weeks home, then two weeks recording, then two weeks home, and so on," Nick said.

       "Cool," Brizee said. They kissed deeply. They collapsed on the couch and kissed hungrily. He got up and locked the front door and closed the windows and the blinds and laid on top of her. They removed each other's clothes and they made love. He laid on top of her and kissed her deeply.

       "I love you, baby," Nick said.

       "I love you, too," Brizee said. They laid there holding each other.

Epilogue

Four weeks later, Nick came home for the two week leave. Brizee hugged him as he came in.

       "I missed you so much," Nick said.

       "I missed you, too," Brizee said. Nick hugged her.

       "You okay?" Nick asked.

       "Yeah, just that I have some news," Brizee said.

       "What is it," Nick said.

       "I'm pregnant," Brizee said.

       "What," Nick said.

       "I'm pregnant, Nicky, I conceived on our honeymoon so I'm five weeks along," Brizee said. Nick hugged her close.

       "God, I love you so much," Nick said.

       "I love you, too," Brizee said.

       "We are having a baby," Nick said.

       "Yes we are, would you do anything for me?" Brizee asked.

       "Baby, I would!" Nick said smiling.

       "Take me upstairs and make love to me," Brizee said. He picked her up and carried her upstairs and down to their bedroom and laid her on the bed and laid beside her. He removed her clothes and removed his and he gently made love to her. Afterwards, he laid beside her and held her close.

       "Baby, I would do anything for you, always," Nick said.

       "I love you," Brizee said.

       "I love you, too, you and I are never going to be apart, we are together forever, baby," Nick said. She smiled and hugged him. They called everyone and told them the news and everyone was happy for them and Brizee knew that Nick was never going to leave her.
