“I cannot believe you made out with him last night and did not wake me up to tell me.”Colleen said as we pulled into the parking lot of Chastain Amphitheatre for the soundcheck. I didn’t tell her we had sex. I thought she may have a heart attack if I did.

“I don’t think there was any waking you up, you were pretty fucked up.”I said walking towards the will call window. We were late, very late for this soundcheck on account of being hung over and puking every hour.

“Our names should be on the list.”I said handing the guard our IDs. “You guys are pretty late, but since Nick put you on here himself I guess I’ll let you through.”he said and I smiled. I couldn’t wait to see him again.

“Thanks!”I said as we walked past him towards the front of the stage where the guys were already taking pictures with the fans. We had missed the soundcheck. I stood in line watching Nick flirt with one of his fans whispering something into her ear. She was gonna be his girl for the night, not me tonight. God I am pathetic aren’t I? That was kind of a downer I thought noticing the guards let her backstage. I kinda just wanted to leave now before he spotted me, but I knew Colleen wouldn’t.

“Come on let’s keep the line moving.”the guy said as we stepped up to the guys to get our pictures made. Nick acted like he did not even know me. “You’re late.”he whispered as I smiled for my picture.

“Sorry.”I said quietly sighing.

“You okay?”he asked slipping something in my hand.

“Fine.”I said and had to be moved along so that the next people could get there pictures. I looked over at Nick as I opened the piece of paper in my pocket. There was two tickets for front row center inside and one pass for backstage.

“Thanks.”I mouthed to him and he smiled.

This is thanks for an awesome night. – Nick

That’s all the note said with the two tickets. I guess those forums and fan sites were right. Nick knew how to make you feel like the only girl in his life for one night. I had been used and we both knew it.


~~NICK~~

Ugh, I had just wanted her to be my fuck for last night. I have never and I mean NEVER given a girl seats for the next show, or let them backstage, nothing like that after we did it. What are you doing Carter? You’re fucking up. I watched her and all the rest of the fans leave and remembered I had let that other girl go backstage. She would be waiting in my dressing room.

“Hey we um we gotta rehearse some more stuff for tonight, sorry you’ll just have to go back and wait in line.”I said, not knowing what I was doing. This girl was hot, but for some reason I couldn’t stop thinking about Caroline.

“Are you sure?”she asked looking up at me. I paused for a minute. I just couldn’t do it.

“Yea.”I said looking away from her as she walked out the door literally into Caroline.

“Hey.”I said smiling. She didn’t look very good, kind of upset. “Feeling okay from last night?”I said holding out my hand for her.

“You mean from all the screwing around or the liters of jack daniels I took down?”she asked and I laughed as I held onto her hand.

“Both.”I said and she smiled.

“You look beautiful.”I said looking her over.

“Stop it.”she said blushing as I rubbed my hand up her arm. My phone rang beside me, I knew who it was, I had ringtone ID.

“Aren’t you gonna answer that?”she asked giving me a weird look.

“Nah I’m looking at who I want to be talking to.”I said. Man I was slick sometimes.

“You’re sweet.”she said as I leaned my forehead up to hers and kissed her lightly.

“Listen let’s say we skip the afterparty tonight and me and you just go do something.”I said. I always liked taking normal girls out. That sounds awful doesn’t it. It’s just since I’ve been dating Paris it’s just been nuts and I just wanna do something without having to be the center of attention.

“Are you asking me on a date Nick?”she asked smiling.

“Something like that.”I said smiling back at her. Something was different about her, I could already tell.

“Put your number in here.”I said handing her my Iphone.

“You’re never gonna call me.”she said disbelieving.

“Don’t believe everything you read online.” I said smiling as she started to punch in her number.

“Your baby is calling you.”she said handing me the phone. God dammit. Not only did it say baby it had Paris’s picture on there as well.

“Ignore.”I said trying to cover up what was going on. I handed the phone back to her and let her put the rest of her number in. “Now you have mine too…so if I don’t call you you can still get in touch with me.”I said calling her phone to prove her wrong. I mean she right…in most circumstances…but it was different with her, like I said, I could already tell.


~~CAROLINE~~

“How ya’ll doing?”Nick said walking around on stage. The spotlight was on him and he was wiping the sweat off of his face with a towel. He was all smiles, always was onstage. “I’m gonna come on down here a little closer…”he said stepping off the stage. Of course, the screams were deafening again.

“Ya’ll can see me right?”Nick asked walking past me pulling the camera with him for the jumbo screen onstage. He looked at me and smirked. I looked at him back everyone here just thought I was another fan…this is exactly what I had always hoped my life would be. I felt his hand on my face and he kissed me in front of everyone. The girls next to me went crazy and just as fast as he did it he was back onstage smiling.

“I wish I could kiss all of you guys!”he yelled into the microphone. More screams, oh good Lord I am light headed. He looked back over at me and winked. Everyone in this audience still just thought I was that lucky fan. He just got carried away, ya know, God he was awesome! I don’t give a shit if he is just using me. He just made me feel like a new person. As they started Unsuspecting Sunday Afternoon, I thought how perfect the song was and realized that’s why he had kissed me just then…

~~NICK~~

The people walking by don’t have a clue
That I kissed your face
Til the sun was in our eyes
Til the afternoon arrived
And I can’t explain
Last night I saw the fireworks
The kind of pain that never hurts
The one you hate to love
Is made for you……

I watched Brian sing his verse to this song…we had wrote this song so long ago,but it was so perfect. I had planned doing that right before this song…I didn’t know if she would get the message or even if I wanted her to understand, but I couldn’t take my eyes off of her and I stumbled to get the first words of my verse on cue. I laughed as I missed it and then got back on track. This would be posted on youtube for sure…labeled as Nick Carter fucks up words on stage. Why do people need to embarrass me like that?

LATER THAT AFTER THE SHOW

“Wassup?”I said pulling out my phone calling Caroline. I was pathetic, she probably had not even left the arena yet.

“We’re still sitting in our seats waiting on all these people to clear out.”she said as I rubbed the sweat off my face with a towel.

“You know what is a perfect way to waste time.”I said smiling.

“What?”she replied.

“Hanging out with a Backstreet Boy in there dressing room.”I said making her laugh.

“You still have your pass right?”I asked taking off my Run DMC costume changing into normal clothes.

“Yea…let me just go with Colleen to her car and then I’ll come back there.”she said.

“Okay just tell Marcus to let you through…he knows who you are.”I said and then thought about how weird it was the way we were talking to each other, like we had known each other for along time.

“Okay bye.”she said and hung up the phone. I was actually anticipating seeing her. Let me explain this, I do NOT anticipate meeting girls. I use them. I will admit it, but they are offering and willing, and so was she, but I like her for some reason. We just click, something happened last night, and I’m scared but I like it.
