Chapter One

She knew her chances were one in a million; like winning the lottery. She thought what the hell as she read the contest rules. She looked it over and the application process was complete. She pressed send knowing her chances were slim to none. She has never wanted to win a contest as bad as she did now. Her life was less than glamorous and she was just an ordinary girl trying to figure out the right steps to take to make her dreams come true.

She sighed as she heard her phone go off, she glanced at her phone and winces with the latest twitter updates from her old college roommate. She just graduated with her doctorate degree this was supposed to be Annalee's dream; it was supposed to be her dream. Instead she dropped out of college and decided to become a dancer. It turns out she wasn't a very good dancer and quit her job and then she decided to move to Nashville to be the next Country star. It turns out Nashville is flooding with pretty girls wanting to become the next big thing.

So she did the only natural thing; she moved back home and accepted defeat. Annalee was always confused and always wanting more out of life. She always thought that the grass was greener on the otherside. She was always searching for that otherside, the greeness. Luckily her parents that were very forgiving of her messed up choices. That was until she decided to quit her job and not do anything. Ronald and Martha weren't happy about that;What parents would be. Six months ago she came home and found a note saying that her parents were selling the house and going to travel the world with the camper they just bought. So she had to find a place to live. Like that her parents cut her off and went to live their dreams. They kept in touch through email, they had no cellphone and were living off the grid, except for email.

So now Annalee is working at a local hooters searching for answers to her life she always known she was meant to do good things, fun things. Life was supposed to be fun, it was supposed to be exciting not this every day grind of 9-5 Monday thru Saturday. I guess she got her love of life through her modern day hippy esque parents.

Annalee looked around her one bedroom appartment she was the only 30 year old woman she knew that still had her kitchen in her bedroom. She sighed as she looked in the mirror and and brushed her brown curly hair dressed in short black shorts and a tight black T-Shirt that said Hooters.

She felt like she was one step away from dancing in the female version of Magic Mike except it would be called Magic Annalee. She chuckled at the thought as she put on hooker boots and grabbed her keys and locked appartment 69. How fitting she thought, although she could cook Kraft Dinner in her bed, and her table was her nightstand, it was home for now.

Meanwhile...


Chapter 2

Nick sat at his lap top drinking his orange juice looking through all the applications, normally he would have his assitant do this for him except this project was his baby so this person had to have all the qualities he was looking for.

He made his fans a promise and he needed to make sure he kept this one. He wasn't in the mood to do this though Him and Lauren broke of their engagement earlier this year. It was for the best, they didn't see each other as often as they would of liked and they drifted apart and it broke his heart when the last fight they had she threw her ring in his face.

They haven't seen each other in months and thats when he knew it was over. The ring symbolized it and she accused him on a daily basis of sleeping with fans at the after parties. He was nothing but faithful to her and it wasn't enough she asked him to choose between A.J, Brian, Howie and Kevin, and most importantly the fans.

So Nick picked the Backstreet boys, and his fans over her. She wasn't going to have it that way anymore so they ended it. Nick started an indigogo plan for a movie and really buried himself into it the last months. Being single and 34 isn't anything like being single and 26. Nick wasn't looking for the quick fuck in fact he wasn't looking for anything.

Little did he know the Woman that was going to make all of his dreams and fantasys come true was right there in the stack of papers.

Annalee came home exhausted she locked her front door and through her keys on her nightstand kicked her shoes off of her feet opened up the fridge door and poured herself a glass of wine. She pulled her clothes over head leaving a trail behind her to her washroom, it wasn't a very big trail because the appartment was so small it jutst looked like a pile.

She turned on her small stereo in the bathroom and grabbed her vanilla bubble bath and turned the lights down low, so their was just a small soft glow illuminating the room. She shut of her phone so she she could ignore the outside world. After the day she had random married men oggling her body and starring at her chest instead of into her eyes like the “real” gentleman of the world were trained to do. Not these so called men of today.

She sunk her body into the bubbles and felt the stress of her day melt away with the steam and evaporating bubbles.

Meanwhile...

Nick was still looking through contest applications the other fellas already picked their contest winners. Him and the boys are doing a reality series that is only available to fan club members on the backstreet boys website. The winner of the series gets to be in their newest video and gets a role in Nicks new horror flick evil blessings, ohh and gets the title of being named the biggest fan. Make one's dreams a reality. Not to mention a free VIP pass to a BSB cruise.

Nick was interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone “Lo” he answered his voice was muffled as he took his reading glasses off and blinked his eyes. He couldn't believe he has been at this for hours...he just wasn't seeming to find the right fit for the show. He wanted something real, something he was searching for in real life as well.

“Hey Wanksta” Nick rolled his eyes. “Hey Aje, whats up?”

A.J sat outside sneaking a smoke, he tried to quit but it just wasn't something he was ready to give up. A.J blew the smoke out and you could see the smoke spiral into the dark night sky.

“So, hows it going? Did you find your girl yet?” Nick let out deep frustrated sigh as he rubbed his hands through his hair. “No, there are so many”

A.J laughed “The one time I was happy to not be the golden one”

“Mhhmm...” Nick replied scarcastically. “How did you pick yours?”

“Rochelle and I wrote down everyones name and drew five names out of a hat, and picked the one I felt I had a the biggest connection with.” You could here the innocence in Alex's voice. “All of our fans are pretty special.”

“So do you have it narrowed down at least? We need to announce the winners tomorrow by 6:00p.m.”

“Ahh...I know, fuck why do I have be such a procrasinator. I mean I want someone I can stand to be around, not someone who is going to go all fangirl on me.”

A.J grinned “ I know right. So did you get any nakey pics?”

Nick couldn't help but smile his cheeky grin. “Ohh did I, its not about that though. I thought this thing was censored.”

“Our fans are crafty man” A.J's voice became excited “Save the pictures man, Rochelle found my porn stash and heeved it.”

Nick couldn't control his laughter “You are so dirty, man. Those are our fans.”

Nick could practically see Jay wiggle his eyebrows. “I am dirty. My nic name was Bone.”

“Don't I know it. The first time I heard a chick cum. It was from the back of our tour bus. You were friggin on the bottom bunk.” Nick shut his laptop and walked to the Kitchen were Nacho permanently resides- not very far from his food and water dish. Nick opened up the freezer door and took out an orange popsicle.

“You learned from the best.” A.J snickered “Well I gotta go man. Ava is up and its time for Rochelle to have some mommy time. She is going out with her friends from beauty school.”

“Strippers again?” Nick grinned

“Probably- Later” Nick heard the phone click and bit the last of his popsicle and through the stick. Washed his hands at the kitchen island sink.

Okay back to the grind... Nick said outloud. He flicked the lights on to better concentrate.
5 hours past and the time said 4:30 a.m. There I have it narrowed down. Nick wrote down the names, and he was going to sleep until noon and get up and make his final decesion.

He looked at the names he typed in.

Jordan, Kyrie, Hazel, Annalee, Brina, Juju... “One of you are going to make a dream a reality.”

Chapter 3- My Girl
Annalee woke up hours later the bathroom was dark; the once fluffy bubbles that were covering her body now have disapered and her body turned into a human sponge. She shivered as she un-steadily climbed out of the tub and turned on her phone to give some sort of light to maneuver in she glanced at the blue numbers They read 2:30 a.m. She couldn't believe she fell asleep in the tub again, 'What normal person does this?'

Annalee, dripped a trail of water to the other side of the tiny bathroom, as she felt along the flowery wall paper sliding her hand along the cracks showing the buildings age. searching for the light switch “Aha” she flicked the switch “There shall be light” she said ouloud. She looked at herself and thought she looked like a 80-year-old Woman. She was pruney from the water. She grabbed the towel that was hanging by the 70's style green sink. She wrapped the fluffy towel around her petite frame and dried herself off and brushed her teeth and the knots that were forming in the bottom of her brown wavy now matted hair. She winced as she tried to comb it out.

She sauntered her way to her closet and grabbed her pink fuzzy slippers and grabbed her fluffy oversized housecoat and the bag of food that was sitting on the counter and opened her window, the only window in the appartment overlooking her sink. There was absolutely no view to be seen just some local graffati art which isn't bad but its not over looking the ocean like her childhood home. She would never understand how her parents could leave such a santuary like that Gardens, pools, ocean views. They did though and now she is here and her only view is a moon and stars that only come out when their isn't any smog. Tall concrete buildings with some black spray paint and other colors. 'Who really cares if the world knows Desean wuz here'. She chuckled to herself none the less this place was home but she couldn't help but feel trapped and lonely. Of course she had friends, but they are all on different paths, paths that don't always lead her way.

“Psss” She waited for the familar shuffle. “Psss” Still nothing. She heard the familar prancing footsteps and the thud as she heard 'Mystery' jump down and come running towards her at the sound of the ruffling bag. Mystery bounded in through the window. “Hi babygirl, Momma missed you today.”

The black four legged creature started purring and Annalee closed the window and made sure she locked it. She always had to mess with it to get it to lock properly. She closed the brown curtains and shut out all the lights and headed to bed, with mystery following close behind her. Annalee curled into her fuzzy white comforter and cocooned herself in the blankets with mystery lying next to her. Even though she hated her job, she was optimistic everyday is another day. A step towards changing her life. Little did she know her last thought before sleep succumbed her that tomorrow might really change her life. Possibly not for the best.

-Later-

Nick woke up earlier than he ever planned to Management called and said they needed his contest entry fast because they needed to start advertising and get the girls here asap to shoot the commercial for Fox to air to gain interest. Nick wasn't sure how five hours was going to make a difference. He didn't feel like arguing though. He was far to tired and was awake now.

Once he was awake he often couldn't go back to sleep. Unless it is after sex, if its after sex he can sleep on command. Nick made his way to the living room where his laptop remained, on the glass coffee table. Nick rubbed his eyes trying to wake up he sat down and read his choices they were all perfect but one stood out above the rest.

Hi Nick,

So... I am not really sure how to write. This I am not even sure if you will get to read this. Or if you have picked the winner yet. So these may be just empty words on a imaginary peice of paper in the land of google.

Nick chuckled as he read the letter he grabbed his now cold coffee and took a sip. He continued reading.

I am not going to tell you that this would mean the world to me and im not going to tell you that meeting you and winning the chance to meet you guys would be life changing ( It would be) But im not going to tell you something you already know.

I am also not going to tell you that you have changed or saved my life in anyway, because truth be told you haven't. I just really enjoy your music and have been a fan for years. Since the begining right when your voice was going through all that akwardness and I was just starting to get boobs (I was an early bloomer). I still really loved you and your music and your personna...

Nick couldn't help but wonder what this person looked like, she must be a little younger than he is. He was intrigued. He really like her wit and could see him working with someone like this. He continued reading.

I even still liked you during your “bad boy phase” you know the one. The one where you are best friends with Tommy Lee, and snort coke and take extacy, and dating Paris Hilton. ( I went through a bad girl phase too- Have the tat to prove it)

Nick grinned he wondered where and what the tattoo was and the story behind it. He kept reading to the end of the letter. He had to read some of it over again just to make sure he read it right. He has never had a fan letter quite like this. This one stood out above the rest.

You were then and still now on my elevator list. (Just kidding) Well who am I kidding I think you are on everyones elevator list. That doesn't mean I would act on it. I feel I am your biggest fan because I feel like I understand you- the real you- the one that has closet secrets, the one who came from a broken family, or the you that you portray to the world. I don't know, honestly it would just be really fucking awesome to meet the boy that was the star in so many of my fantasies, and see if you are anything like I think you are. I mean we all have what if moments...What if the moment you meet me. That moment is life changing?

I am a fan but I am not going to wear an I love Nick Carter T-shirt, or hold a sign up or get you to sign my breasts. I am honestly just an ordinary 30-year-old girl looking for that magical moment in life. That is absolutely life changing. When I say normal- what is normal? I live in a bachelor appartment, I work at hooters, I often fall asleep in the bath with a glass of wine next to me, My best companion in life right now is Mystery- A stray cat that I sneak in and feed. So am I normal, who knows but I know I am meant for greatness.

Please pick me I think we would make great partners in crime...

Sincerely,

Annalee
xoxooxxo

Nick called up his managment team and toasted a bagel and went and sat outside and put his feet up and took a bite of his bagel.

“Jenn, I found my biggest fan”

Jen smirked on the other end and sighed a sigh of relief “Thank god. I was beginning to worry.”

Nick rolled his eyes “Where is the faith?” He asked dramatically.

“Ohh..I have faith in you, So who is the lucky lady?”

“Annalee” Nick grinned determined his girl was going to win the contest. His competitiveness was going to come out.

“Just Annalee?” Nick could picture Jenn's look of dissaproval. Her and the guys are always telling him he doesn't pay attention to the smaller details.

Nick shrugged his shoulders “She didn't say, but I have her e-mail.”

“A girl wants to enter a contest and doesn't follow the rules for entering the contest.”

“I don't care- shes my girl. She is the winner.”

Nick could hear Jenn mumble something under her breath all he got was “You are perfect for eachother”

Nick hung up the phone happy about his choice and he didn't need to call in for reinforcements.

Annalee woke up that morning with the sound of her newlywed neighbours fighting about paint colors again. Annalee shoved her head under the pillow. The walls were more than likely insulated with shredded news paper. So she had her noisy neighbours to the left and someone above her who never takes of their heels above her. It was nearly impossible to sleep in on her days off.

She threw her pillow off the bed in frustration “Oh my god, trying to sleep here.” Annalee succumbed defeat she got up and started her day. She sleepily walked over to her Tassimo coffee maker she pulled the tab off and threw the tab into the “fake” steel garbage can with a broken foot peddle that she bought at an apartment sale downstairs from apartment 39.

She decided she would check in with the world see if the world is as gloomy as the noisy neighbours seem to make it. Annalee got her favorite coffee mug out of the cupboard with a crack in the bottom of it. It was the first thing she ever bought herself when she moved out on her own. It has some sort of strange symbolic meaning for her. She always liked to be outgoing and fantastically different.

She checked her emails one from here mom , Matchmakers, kept scrolling down and three E-mail's from JennBSBcontest@backstreetboys.com. She completely forgot she even applied for the contest she never thought it would go anywheres. She checked the date it was a week ago the first email was sent.

She opened the first E-mail. She could see the reflection in the mirror. Her smile was large and eyes were huge as she scanned threw the e-mails. She couldn't believe the words she was reading, she was handpicked by Nick.

Hi Annalee,

I am begining to think maybe we have your email wrong. Unfortuanately if we don't here from you by tomorrow. We cannot hold the contest for you any longer. The show must go on.

Jenn
Management

Annalee looked at the calendar on the wall and saw that it was on the month of January. Annalee rolled her eyes. “Wait a minute, its now June.” Annalee frantically flipped through the calendar pages . So she looked at the clock on the computer and it says it is June 30, 2013 @ 8:00 a.m.

Annalee desperately typed an email back. She typed it so quick she didn't have time to check her spelling. After she typed the e-mail she was practically chewing her cuticles of her nails it was such a bad nervous habit. She might of lost her chance of making her biggest fantasy a reality.

Meanwhile...

Nick was taking a short weekend vacation with his phone and computer and the great open waters, a fishing rod and a bottle of sunscreen. Nick has been playing phone tag with his bandmates and a very angry Jenn and management. It was supposed to be a quiet weekend on his boat by himself and the solidarity of nature. Not the ringing of his cell phone and blinking ofemail messages that havent been read.

Nick grabbed the towel and towel dried his hair. It was getting hot on the boat and he could feel his skin burning. He caught the phone just in time to miss it. He checked his messages.

“Nick...Your girl is as irresponsible as you. She didn't apply for the contest in the right way and we can't get ahold of her you need to make another decesion and we all know how tough it was for you to make this one. Nick we have all the crew on hold for this and the fans want to know if they are winners you need to pick someone else.

Nick sighed...He didn't want to go through the process again when he already picked the perfect fit for the show and for him right now. All of these other contestants are great but he didn't feel the connection and if he is going to spend the next three months with an absolute stranger it is going to be someone he is comfortable with.

“Hi Nick its Jenn, the one you have been avoiding your girl has until midnight if you don't chose we will pick for you.”

Jenn was sitting in her office knee deep in papers. Papers piled high when she heard her phone ring.

“Ahh so he does know how to answer his phone.” Jenn sneered into the phone.

“Hi Jenn, sorry no cell service on the water.” Nick raised his eyebrows knowing he lied, but it wasn't a complete lie. There usually isn't very good cell service out on the water.

“Right, well I take it you got my messages. Nick this Annalee girl isn't working. She isn't replying back. I mean if she doesn't write back how big of a fan can she be.” She sighed into the phone.

“Send another e-mail Jenn.” Nick took a drink out of his corona while leaning against the stainless steel part of the boat. Looking at sun and the water. It was probably one of the nicest days he has seen on the boat.

“Nick, Look I have people I have to answer to. Yes, I know you are hugely important and this wouldn't be possible without you. But the backers are talking about canning this little project it is already late and their is a lot of money on the line for them. They are paying film crew people, and food and hotel accomodations. It is out of my hands. Not to mention the angry twitter publicity. Nick she has 1 hour.”

Nick felt like a kid that got scolded and put in the corner. “Okay- I'll start looking. Send me the email again.”

“Maybe it just wasn't meant to be.” Nick mentioned to the invisible person standing next to him. As he heard the dialtone.

Annalee was in the middle of her Thursday Wee morning working out. Alongside a tall glass of orange juice and cinnamon and sugar toast. It has always been her favorite meal ever since her grandmother made it for her when she stayed over as a kid.

Annalee checked her heart rate and it was right where it should be. She grabed her bright pink face cloth and whipped the sweat off her while she paused the game and took a bite of her morning delight.

"Alright game on." She mumbled to the old lady avatar. She had on the headset that allowed her to talk to the avatar. She was a 54-year-old retired teacher from Spain. They have been at this same game for months. Trying to out do each others high score.

"Come on Annalee you know you can't beat me today. You need to get a perfect score." She huffed into the receiver.

"I am distracted today Marg" Annalee pushed herself harder.

She heard a beeping on the kitchen table she was going to ignore when she looked down and saw it was an unknown number but the area code is California.

"Hey Marg I got to go got an important call coming through."

"Booty call?" Marg asked.

"Marg" Annalee says shocked. She still couldn't believe this 54 year old talks like this. She became a pretty good friend to Annalee even if it is a virtual friend.

"I don't know let me go and I can see" Annalee smiles taking a large drink of her orange juice.

Bye with that she answered the phone "Hello" She answered slightly out of breath.

"Hi, I was wondering If I could speak to Annalee?" The slightly familiar voice asked on the other end of the phone.

"This is Annalee. Is everything okay? Its not my family is it?"

Annalee sat down sitting this could be serious. The female voice on the other end of the line.

"Ohh everything is more than okay. Annalee you are one hard person to get ahold of."

Annalee sighed into the phone "Look, I know I owe you money, If this is the credit card company I am just a few days late I sent it in the mail on Tuesday."

Jen chuckled on the other end of the phone "You worry to much. "My name is Jenn and I am calling to tell you that you are Nick Carter's choice. You won the contest. So if you can we would like you to hop on a plane to Florida were you will meet the rest of the contestants and of course Mr. Nick carter, Richardson, MacLean, Dorough, Litrell."

"I think I have to sit down, your shittin me right. This can't be real."

Jen chuckled sitting next to her was Nick and he smiled. "Its real hunny you almost missed the chance of a lifetime."

"Ohh wow, so much better than a booty call. I will have to tell Marg."

Jen looked at Nick and shrugged her shoulders as she turned up the volume on the speaker phone sitting at the large glass meeting table with a room full of windows.

"Okay-well you will have to do that Annalee."

"Wait- are you sure this isn't a joke." Annalee asks concerned.

"You sure do worry and have some trust issues. This isn't a joke. You are the winner now you and Nick will have to prove the world that you are his biggest fan."

"Im sorry- Its just those past life booty calls are part of the reason I have so trust issues. Also, I was like a closet so to speak nerd and got picked on a lot. Still working with all of those. I can honestly say I don't have daddy issues though." Annalee spat out really fast.

"Ooookkay so the plans for travel" Jenn tries to change the subject, she looked over at Nick and he looked highly amused. He mouthed to jenn 'she is the one.'

Jenn rolled her eyes at Nick. Nick was like a kid brother to her. "Im sorry im just really excited and astonished that I was picked. I think I should apologise for being so out of breath. I was playing Wii live video game, and Marge is a 54-year-old virtual nemesis."

"Its okay- thanks for clearing that up but you didn't have to."

"I didn't want you to think I was a sexaholic that waits on bootycalls."

Jen laughed " Its cool so I'll have a car pick you up at the Orlando International airport at 2:00am. Im sorry its so late but you are a hard one to get ahold of."

"Sorry-honestly I didn't think I would win and it was past cut off when I finally checked my email... I sent the email back on a whim. Thank you very much for sticking with me."

Annalee's nerves were fading with every word she wasn't as nervous now speaking with Jenn.

"It wasn't me it was all Nick he was adamant on picking you. I can now see why. You are like the female version of himself."

"Well thank you. I'll be sure to thank him."

"I better go and pack and tell my work I am going to be sick for a few days."

"More like 3 months..." Jenn smiled

"Mmm...I think I am going to have to find a new job, huh? I mean they have maternity leave I guess I could say I was with child. Probably more believable than im going to be on a Backstreet Boy reality TV show."

Jenn chuckled "Good Luck."

"You know maybe ill tell them the truth, I mean I hate liers. I will tell them to tune into the silver screen."

"Bye Jenn, see you soon."

"Bye"

"So-" The blonde said.

"Nick you are right she is scary perfect for you and the show."

"I know and she likes Video games."

"Nick how old are you."

"Shuddup" Nick grins well its time to make the official announcement, we better get the guys together and start our action plan.

I was walking off of the plane my legs were so stiff from sitting in one spot for so long and bracing myself for the horrible landing I knew was coming. This pilot must have just received his license because it was not a smooth landing what so ever. Nobody clapped at the end of the flight everyone just had the same look of relief on their faces.

Im sure they mirrored my own.
None the less we landed so it could have gone much worse. I was limping off the plane to meet Jen the manager of the group well one of the many. She said she was bringing a special guest with her, I wasn’t sure who though. I had an idea but that more than likely would not be happening already, would it?

I missed the cut off I am not going to get to meet any other contestants of this reality web show . I am acutally not going to meet any of them until Tuesday according to the email I read over, and over again. I missed the promo pics but apparently Nick was adamant on me getting this part so he had to pull a lot of strings to get me here.

Apparently I am so special I get to do my promo pics with nick and the other guys and their families. I don’t know I feel like a huge burden to everyone already. My plane was late getting in, my luggage was lost on my flight and isn’t reaching my connecting flight, Im tired and cranky because my flight isn’t just a little late it is a whopping ten hours late.

Did I mention I hate flying… I know I am being the biggest neg bomb right now. But im nervous I feel like I can smell myself, im tired, I can only wear these clothes until my last cheque comes in from work. So all the money I have right now is all I have until Thursday when I get paid.

I uprooted my life and had to leave Mystery behind and I just need a hug. I am so tired , I just want a shower and bed. That’s when I saw a sign with my name on it. I walked over to the sign and saw them hiding behind it. Jenn, and Nick in the flesh.
I was not expecting any of them let alone both of them…I smiled and gave a small wave as I approached them. Jenn spoke first

“Hi Annalee” she walked up to me and chuckled “How was your flight”?
I tried not to yawn “do you want the truth?” I looked at her and scrunched my nose. “I was never so happy to land”
Jenn smiled and Nick chimed in and greeted me and gave me a hug and Jenn excused herself she has been waiting to go to the washroom for awhile. We were standing side by side when Nick broke the silence.

“You ready to be my perfect fan?” He was so fucking attractive he was wearing jeans and runners and a hoodie but damn did he ever look good. Was I ready to be his perfect fan hell yes.

Was Nick flirting with me? He did that raised eyebrow thing. I got a little closer and somewhat flirty I bit down on my bottom lip my reply was simple “What does a fan have to do to be a perfect fan?” I whispered somewhat huskily.

Nick gave me a sideways glance and grinned at me “ Your already doing it..but my room is 1208 if you want to disuss some ideas with me.” He whispered as jenn was coming closer.

Okay so did I just get propostioned? This is going to be one interesting few weeks.

The car drive wasn't even that long but it felt so very long. I don't know if it was because I thought all my 15-year-old sexual fantasies were going to come true tonight or I was so un-belivably tired I just wanted my head to the hit the pillow and hard.

I couldn't help but think of all the naughty things I wanted to do to Nick. Im normally not so forward thinking like I at least to like to be wined and dined a little. I like a little romance. I couldn't help the fact that Nick kept licking his lips he looked so in depth in his game.

Why did he have to be so sexy... The bad thing is I think he knew just the effect he was having on me. He kept looking over and winking and turn back all of his attention to what I could only assume was his game.

when we got back to the hotel Jenn was saying that the three of us have to meet up tomorrow and discuss our contract but with the delay it would be best if we all just went to sleep and re-grouped in the morning.

So here we were Nick was in 1308 and I was in 1310 literally across the hall from where he showers, sleeps, has sex with number one fans. i giggled I never giggle. I giggled at the thought. Nick looked up at me and motioned for me to follow him to the elevator.

"So Annalee..did you come up with any ideas yet?" he wiggled his eyebrows at me.

I blushed "You have to stop being so damn fucking sexy" I was blunt and straight to the point.

Nick practically choked on his bottle of water. Nick looked around innocently. Like he had no idea what I was talking about.

"Umm..Im lost" He moved closer to me and looked at me like I had to heads.

"You. Stop licking your lips, kinking your eyebrow, whispering sexily to me. Stop, Or I am not going to be able to do this contest with you without sneaking into your room everynight." I sighed exhasperatedly and moved to the other side of the elevator.

Nick blushed " Im sorry. I didn't mean anything by it. Im just a natural flirt and I guess I wasn't really expecting you to look like you." He looked at me sheepishly.

"Well this is awkward" I mumbled "Im sorry I kind of took it as you wanted to do things with you that only a perfect fan would get to do..."

Nicks eyes widened " wow...well okay I didn't really mean it in that sense but now I kind of wish I did." He came closer to me.

“Nick… that can’t happen. It just wouldn’t be right.” He was staring into my eyes now. We were still riding up the 13th floor. I could hear the dinging of all the floors we were hitting.

“Why?” He questioned as he pushed me up against the wall both hands above my head and was about to kiss me when I wiggled away.

"No Nick this isn’t right I don’t even know you. As much as I would love for you to make my fantasies come true. I just need an incredibly cold shower."

Nick smirked knowing the effect he had on me already like a power. Although, I could tell that maybe he was going to have me in one of his fantasies tonight. “you passed”

“I didn’t know there was a test.” I scoffed “What do you mean I passed” I glared at him.

“Most woman can’t resist me and I can’t do this with somebody where this is all the want.” Motioning his hands up and down in front of him.

“You’re a first class jerk Nick. That’s really not fair to toil with ones emotions like that especially 15 year old pent up emotions. “ I sigh and try to slow down my heart rate some and move away from Nick.
Nick chuckled

“Were going to have to be with eachother 24-7 were going to have to laugh about this.”

“Annalee, im sorry what can I do to make it up to you?” I tilt her chin so shes looking at me. I wasn’t lying earlier. I didn’t realise I was flirting with her as hardcore as I was, but she was so sweet and not innocent at all. She is me in fucking pants. Which could be the best thing or the worst decision of my life, the jury is still out on that call. She was beautiful and what is really scary if she didn’t pull me away. I really don’t know what would of happened in the elevator. All of these thoughts are crossing my mind while im staring her in the eyes.

“Nick, please don’t. I am so embarrassed right now and annoyed, cranky, hungry and tired. Im really not in the mood for you and your shenanigans right now; I know I must be stupid to believe you would of got with a fan like me.

Nick pulled away “Im sorry. I didn’t mean to hurt you and if it makes you feel any better. I would have been more than happy to get with a fan like you, like this, right now right here. My motto is business first pleasure somewhere in between. He leaned down and kissed my cheek. “See you in the morning” . with that he left me and I was even more confused.

This was not the Nick Carter I thought I would be spending man, many hours with. As much as I pretended to be mad. I couldn’t be I haven’t had any excitement in my life really for months and if Nick wanted to play games. We will play games within games.
I got to my room and after I had my cold shower…I changed into my comfy pajamas and dialed 1308.

“Hi” Nick answered “Whos this.”

I smiled into the phone he had such a sexy voice “Nick. I just wanted to let you know game on. Im not sure what kind of games your playing or who you think I am. Eventually you are going to want me, just cause well you are. I am not going to be there.”

“Sweet Dreams Nick” I hung up feeling like I had the upperhand. I then heard a knock at my door. There was Nick wet chest and black jaw string jogging pants with his pants hanging lower exposing the top of the V shape.
He chuckled “You were saying.”

I winked at her fuck it. I really wanted to pick her up and make her scream my name I know its not very professional but I feel like it would get rid of the sexual tension. Its been so long for me and im single isn’t this what the single life is all about?

“Nah-unh Carter” I pushed him out the door. Feeling his rock hard abs against my fingertips was like a fantasy come true.

“Okay Nick Truce- we will just forget about this and go on like we don’t want to roll around in the sheets with eachother.”

Nick couldn’t help but smile at her and held out his hand “Truce. Sounds like a plan. I will see you in the morning.”

“Night Nick” I waved and bit my lip

“Don’t bite your lip its sexy as hell Annalee.” I left the room feeling like I met my match. I really have no idea what has gotten into me im normally not this vocal with a fan. She really was a perfect fan. I can feel she is going to become a big part of my life in more ways than one.

Annalee isn't normally someone to wear a lot of make-up she isn't someone who really has too she has naturally flawless skin. Except she is one of those people who shows that she didn't get a whole lot of sleep the night before.

Dark circle cream and eye concealer is her best friend on this particular morning. She finished off with some moisturizer and a little bit of bronzer and some tinted blistex and made her way to the front door. She had to meet Nick and Jenn in a few minutes and she really didn't want to be late.

Just as she was about to open her door she saw Nick open his at the same exact time so she quickly closed her door and hoped to god he didn't see her.

She didn't really want to walk next to him let alone be alone in a elevator with him. Last night was awkward, weird and completely un-expected. Annalee really wasn't 100% sure what that was. There was certainly some pent up tension. She laid awake all night and couldn't get Nicks wet chiseled shirtless body out of her mind, or his grin, or his eyes. He haunted her all night.

Annalee pushed her back against the door and took a couple deep breaths praying he didn't see her. Just as she was about to turn around to open the door again she heard a knock at the door.

Annalee looked through the peephole "Shit, shit, shit she muttered under her breath- thats him." She couldn't help but check herself out in the mirror one last time before opening the door.

She was greeted with a freshly showered Nick with spiky hair it even looked like he shaved the stuble that was on his face. He had on black pair of shorts, white and black runners and a grey t-shirt with a simple homemade necklace around his neck.

Annalee gulped at the sight of him. Remembering last night’s events. “Good Morning Annalee, you ready for breakfeast?”

He flashed his million dollar smile literally. His smile and charisma and talent got him wear he is today.

“Morning Nick.” Annalee responded she didn’t want things to be any more awkward then they already were. “ So about last –night?” They both started at the same time. Annalee nervously laughed and nick rubbed his hair through his short hair.

“Ladies first” gestured her to go first on both accounts. They started walking down the hall where they were meeting Jenn for breakfast.

“I think it was a lot of fun but I mean it can’t happen that way.”

Annalee stated keeping up to nicks pace a friendly distance away side by side. Nick couldn’t help but notice how naturally beautiful she was just like a morning sunrise or sunset. Simply beautiful without trying to hard. He figured he was picking his perfect partner for a contest but not the perfect partner for him.

Nick couldn’t help himself he wanted to really get to know her and she was really fun to flirt with.

“Okay then how can it happen and what can’t happen us becoming really , reeeallyy good friends”

Nick put the emphasis on the last really. Finsihing it off with a wink just to get his point across.
Annalee rolled her eyes at his cockiness and forwardness

“Nick, you know what can’t happen.”

Nick pushed the elevator button to head down to the lobby and they both walked in crazy enough they were the only ones in there. “Whatdya mean?”

Nick grinned he liked it when she bit her lip and he loves that he has that effect on her and he has only known her for not even 24 hours.

“Nick just stop were here to win a contest. Im going to show why nick carter fans are sooo much better than AJ,Howie, Brian, and Kevin fans.

Annalee wrapped her hands over her chest and glared at him. “Okay, okay, okay…What happened to playful Annalee from last night? You know im just playing right.?

“Nick, we have a job to do. You hate to lose right, so do i?” She put her hand behind her ear and rolled her eyes in annoyance.

“right so what ideas do you have?” Nick asked me as we stepped out of the elevator.

“I don’t know I have few ideas I can show you when we get a few minutes after breakfast. I wrote them down in my notebook last night when I couldn’t sleep.

“Sure sounds like something we could work out.” Nick smiled before they reached their table where they were meeting Jenn, he placed his hand on my arm and lightly tugged me back. “Were cool right? I didn’t mean for things to get as un-professional as they did."

“Yea we are great why wouldn’t we be? "Also, as you said last night work first play later right.” Annalee smiled a wicked grin and left nick standing there wondering what the hell just happened.

Nick sat there watching Annalee at breakfast she talking to Jenn about ideas that she had for show and her family some, and what she liked to do for fun. Her favorite job and opportunities that came her way and she let slide because she didn’t want to compromise who she was and what she stood for.

Just to get a job. She mentioned she was told to lose weight for a singing a role that wasn’t even guaranteed she didn’t want any of that. So she told them to stuff it. Nick really liked that quality about her and was glad he picked her to be his perfect fan for their web show.

“Annalee I really like those ideas they are going to go over really well with other Nick fans. “

“Thanks. Jenn it really means a lot coming from you. I think this is going to be so much damn fun. Ill be sad to see it end”.

Annalee grabbed her iced tea from the table and took a drink and sat it back down. And glanced at the dessert menu that was just handed to her by one of the waiters.

Nick couldn’t help but glare at the waiters they were all staring at her chest and flirting with her. Except the only tip they wanted was their tip inside of her.

Nick couldn’t understand why he feels so protective over her In such a short amount of time. He was jealous that they were getting her dimpled smile and he wasn’t at the moment.

“I don’t think your going to have to worry I can see your going to be around the longest. Nick has a huge fanbase and well the only reason you wont be around is if they don’t vote for you guys.” Jenn chuckled

“I can’t believe you are going to order dessert” Jenn shook her head

“Are you sure shes not A.J’s perfect girl. He loves his sweets too.”

“No she is my girl and were going to win.” Nick smiled and put out his hand for a high five, “we got this Annalee.”

Annalee smiled and winked “We sure do. Were going to have a lot of fun in the process though.”

“I stand corrected- you flirt like all of the BSB. You are nicks perfect match for the show.” Jenn rolled her eyes.

Annalee smiles to the waiter “Ill take the double chocolate lava cake with three spoons. Please and thank you.”

“Why three spoons?” nick and Jenn both stared at her like she was crazy.

“I can’t eat all of it myself plus its rude not to share desserts.”

Annalee looked at both of them like its common knowledge and its written in stone somewhere and in the bible as the 11 commandment. ‘Though shall share dessert always.’
The waiter brought the lava cake and lingered a little to long for Nick’s liking and stared at her. Like she was a trophy.

“Well as much as I would love to stay I can’t eat chocolate this early and I have to meet with the other guys and girls.
So im going to be eating a lot today- more than one should.”

Jenn pulled out her chair and said that she would email Annalee her schedule and that is all she needed to do today.

“Go out. Explore. Have Fun” With that and a wave of her hand she was gone.

“Perfect” Nick rubbed his hands together that means I have more time to get to know you a little better and licked the whip cream off of his lips.

Annalee smiled “What did you have in mind?”

“Well I was thinking…we are really close to a marina I can take you on a boat.”

“you want to take me on a boat don’t you have some other people you might want to spend your day off with?”

Nick watched as she licked every inch of chocolate molten lava off of the three pronged fork. He felt his heart start beating nervously.

“Isn’ t it every fans dream to go on a boat with a shirtless me?” Nick pushed his chair back and took a sip of his ice water.

“Cocky Much Nick?” Annalee shook her head she wanted nothing more to kiss the whip cream right off his lips. That can’t happen though she is just a fan.

“So I have been told.”

Annalee laughed “Actually Nick. It is every Nick Carter fan’s dream to be doing any of this, but mostly you naked.”

“It could be arranged only if that said fan would do it too.” Annalee started to choke as her Iced Tea went down the wrong way.

“Nick- you are such a flirt.”

“Im just saying the truth im a single guy now. I mean if the feelings were there and the moment was right. It could happen. Im not saying I would to just anyone but im human too you know. “

Annalee grinned “I know. Something tells me you are pretty shy too and Im not most fans Nick.”

Nick smiled “ Depending on the situation and the person I can be pretty shy. I am pretty sure if you were a crazy fan I wouldn’t be here eating breakfast with you. I would be in bed eating breakfast with you. Im usally not this forward with any woman let alone fans, but with you Annalee. You are something special.”

Nick watched as a shy smile creeped up on her face and her cheeks turned crimson “You think im special? Why?”

Nick squinted at her through the sunlight coming through the curtain “The fact that you haven’t jumped on the opportunity to jump on me, be alone on a boat. When I have feeling you want to.

Your special the fact that you want to win a contest first rather than sleep with me and make things awkward. Most of all you offer to share your dessert your special.” He whispered so the tables around them couldn’t hear their conversation.

Now Annalee was really blushing “Thanks Nick. For the record since we are being open and honest. I am a bit of a wild child in a sense but im a huge romantic. Of course I want to sleep with you- I need to make sure its for Nick Carter the man. Not the Nick Carter the backstreet boy you know.

I want to get to know you and I don’t feel comfortable being alone on a boat with you knowing that there is no one to see us. I can’t be held responsible for what I might do to you on a boat.”

Nick smiled “See your special.”

“What would you like to do then?” Nick smiled

“Truthfully?” Nick nodded in Response

“ I would like to go buy a bathingsuit and a ball cap, and a beach blanket, and football and hangout at the beach all day and read a book a listen to the ocean waves and possibly fall asleep and relax.”

“Done- lets go get our day started that sounds like some well needed R&R” Nick smiled and held out his hand to help me up from the table.

Nick held Annalee’s hand a little to long but it felt right “I can see this being the start of a beautiful fanship” Nick chuckled “Friendship Annalee.”
“Yes Friendship with the occasional benefit.” Nicks eyes looked hopefull

“Maybe…we will see.” Nick smiled “Lets go rent a car, it has to be in your name though.”

Annalee looked at Nick “I’ll pay for it Annalee but it can’t be under my name- long story.”

Nick felt like he has known this girl forever. It was one of those things where there was an instant connection. She really wasn’t like the crazy fan girl obsessive get mad and disapointed if she didn’t get his full and un-divided attention. She was pretty cool they spent all of the early afternoon doing some running around together.
Nick couldn’t help but smile at her as she held open the doors for some elderly people and chased after someone when they dropped their camera and map. To let them know it fell out of their bag. Annalee was sweet, quick witted, and kind hearted. Kind hearted was something that he didn’t see a whole lot of in the world anymore. Especially the entertainment industry. Not that people aren’t kind just sometimes everyone is always on a tight schedule.
“Hey, sorry about that. I thought they might need their map and camera. They are obviously tourists.” Annalee smiled sheepishly as they were walking around the stores on the hunt for a blanket, beach-ball, football, and sunscreen.
“Oooo im going to look in here they should have something.” Nick was walki Annalee theng next to annalee discussing what they wanted to do for lunch cause they were both really hungry especially cause they just past a little street meat cart. Next thing he knows she disappeared again. They were walking along the waterfront going into touristy trap shops. Nick didn’t care though money really wasn’t an issue and Annalee wanted to take a look around the little shops her mom collects spoons and dolphin figurines so she wanted to pick something up for her.
“Oooo im going to look in here they should have something.”
“Would you stop doing that” Nick explained slightly annoyed “ At least tell me when your going to look into a shop so I don’t lose you. “
See that kid over there nick pointed to a mother and son who had one of those kid leash things. “Im going to get you one of those.”
Annalee rolled her eyes “ Who knew Nick Carter was so impatient, thanks for looking around with me though. I love this kind of stuff.”
Nick chuckled shaking his head “Obviously- I was fine until the tenth store. Now im just getting hungry and grumpy.”
“Sorry- am I that bad?” Annalee looked up with puppy dog eyes. As she was standing in line to pay for the limited edition spoon and dolphin figurine.
“No- not really its just I really don’t want to get recognized again today.” Nick Whispered just lound enough for her to hear and close enough to her ear to send shivers throughout her body.
“ I just want to do a little surfing and through the football and relax on the beach and get to know you a little better. Before all chaos of the contest starts.” Nick said in a slightly whiny tone Annalee could have sworn he stomped his feet a little too.
“Me too a day of relaxation is well needed.” Annalee smiled as she approached the cashier
“Thanks for waiting we had our main guy call in sick today and its crazy a cruise ship just got in and things are busy today.”
“Meh- its no worries. Your doing a great just remember that.” Annalee smiled and told her to keep the change and get herself an icecream on the boardwalk later or coffee.
Nick opened the door for Annalee and nick was soon to follow aside her “ That was really sweet of you.”
“What?” Annalee shuffeled her bags from one shoulder to the other shoulder to adjust the weight.
“Just you you’re a sweetheart”. Nick winked at her “ I dunno. Im just me. Nothing special.”
“Well I think your pretty special along with the young girl inside. She looked like she was having a bad day and you made it turn around for her.” Nick playfully pushed me. Annalee looked up at him and the connection that we had just kept getting stronger.
“Ohh that… I worked in the service industry many times. Sometimes that one little thing can change your day around. I also believe in Karma.”
“ Karma, Eh? What about this place its smells good and they got pitchers of beer and wings.” Nick pointed to the eatery sand bar across the street.
“Sounds perfectly delicious.” Nick watched as Annalee licked her lips.
“Before we head to the beach do you think we can drop this stuff off I don’t want it to break. I am a huge clutz at times.
”Yea no issues.” Nick flagged down the waiter with his eyes and gave a peace sign but really it just meant a table for two.”
We followed the really attractive girl to the table she looked like she just walked off of a magazine cover. Nick didn’t even seem to notice. Normally the guys I hang with make comments like ‘that booty though’ , or Damn, or just plain drool. Nick wasn’t like that at all. Didn’t even notice her it was like he had blinders on.
“We will start with a pitcher and whatever the pretty lady wants.” Nick winked at me “Im hoping she wants me but ya know.”
I kicked him from under the table “Ouch” He muttered under his breath.
“Pitcher sounds great. Thank you. Would you mind bringing a glass of water with lemon as well too please and thank you.”
“Was the necessary?” Annalee rolled her eyes after the waitress walked away.
“Your disguise of sunglasses and a hat aren’t really that great. There are going to be rumors that your dating someone.”
Nick shook his head “You already know we want to fuck eachother.” Nick grinned as he saw her turn the color of the ketchup bottle that was sitting on the table placed in a basket next to the salt and pepper and vinegar bottle.
Annalee practically spit her water all over him “Nick-that’s”
Nick cut her off “that’s what not the truth?” He smiled his carter grin that makes all the ladies crazy his come hither look. “Cause it is. I want to and you want to were both single so whats the problem?”
“Whats wrong with getting to know each other while having sex it works in the movies.” Nick grinned as he finished off his beer and poured himself another one.
“I don’t know just it doesn’t seem right. I barley know you.” Annalee blushed
Nick was confident and cocky “I know enough about you that after all the good deeds you have done today. I can do a couple good deeds of my own.” Nick winked and ate a chicken wing that was on his plate.
“Nick- were doing this contest thing together. I am a fan.”
Nick chuckled “ So…just cause were working together doesn’t mean we can’t explore eachother sexually.”
Annalee smiled “ No it doesn’t. But someone is going to end up getting hurt.”
Nick rolled his eyes. “Well, maybe so, but who knows we might end up falling in love too.”
Annalee sighed deeply as she ordered two shots of tequila and when the waitress brought them over she slid one over to Nick. “ Why me? “
Nick grinned knowing he was getting to her “Why not? Your sexy as hell inside and out.” Nick stole one of her fries and dipped it in her gravy “ I have a question for you- Why me?”
Annalee shook her head and giggled “ Your good Nick. I don’t know your charming, funny, musically talented, have a kind heart, always been a fantasy of mine.”
“Trust me I want to. Just not the right time.” Annalee smiled her cheeks red from embarrassment and alcohol flowing through her veins.
Nick sheepishly grinned “Just so you know. Im not always this forward. Im very intruigued by you and ever since I read your letter I needed to meet you and now that I met you all I want to do is get to know you, and make you scream my name.”
Annalee felt her mouth start to go dry “Maybe- we could start slow. Like a kiss on the lips.”
Nick looked at his food then straight into her eyes “ I can do that. I am very good kisser what if you want more.”
“Then stop me.” Annalee grinned and licked her dessert spoon dry.”
