Author's Note: got this idea from the radio, believe it or not…
Cupid flew outside the Nsync tour bus, his wings flapping powerfully. He looked in the window, seeing Chris and Justin watching TV. 'Hmm…' he thought, laughing to himself. He had an evilly twisted idea, and he found it hilarious.
Cupid adjusted his toga as he pulled out a shimmering golden arrow. Then he wiped some sweat from his head as he took the bow off his shoulder. Even with all the flying he did, he wasn't in shape at all. Just hovering there was killing his back. He sighed, then put the arrow next to the bow and pulled back, taking aim.
Then his wings gave out and he fell to the ground. "I swear, this holiday sucks. I can't even get one minute off and this kills my back…" he muttered, picking himself up off the ground. Cupid jumped, and his wings lifted himself back in the air again.
Once again he pulled back on the bow, took aim, then fired the magical arrow. It shot through the window, hitting Chris square in the chest.
Then Cupid laughed and clumsily flew off to a safe distance to watch the fun.
~o0O0o~
"OW! What the hell was that?!" Chris yelled, rubbing his chest. A funny, tingly feeling came over him, and he felt sort of dizzy. But strangely happy.
"You okay?" Justin asked, concerned.
Chris stopped rubbing the sore spot on his chest and looked at Justin. Suddenly he realized how hot Justin was. "I'm fine. And so are you!"
"What?" Justin asked, confused.
"Don’t deny it, you are hot! I can see why all the girls like you the best!"
"Chris, you're scaring me…"
"Don’t fight it Justin, it's true love!" Chris said, moving closer to the freaked out Justin.
"I'm gonna fight this all the way! What's wrong with you?" Justin said, pushing Chris away.
"Nothings wrong! For the first time in a long time, I feel great!" Chris said, forcing himself closer to Justin.
Justin turned and brought his legs up in between himself and Chris. "Get away from me!" Justin said, pushing Chris away with his feet.
"What's going on?" Joey asked, getting out of the bathroom and hearing Justin's yells.
"Joey! Help! He lost it!" Justin yelled, still pushing Chris away.
"Justin, you can't dodge fate!" Chris replied.
"Chris, what are you doing?" Joey asked, concerned.
"HE LOVES ME!" Justin yelled, getting off the couch.
"Chris, is this true?"
"YES!" Justin and Chris exclaimed together.
"Dear Lord, I think I should have stayed in the bathroom," Joey mumbled.
"When's J.C. and Lance getting back?" Justin asked, hiding behind Joey.
"I don't know," Joey said, holding Chris back. "But whatever you did to him, you better fix before they get here."
"It wasn't me!" Justin argued.
"It is you!" Chris yelled, pushing past Joey. "It's always been you!"
"Joey, help-" Justin was cut short as Chris wrapped his arms around Justin, squeezing the air out of him.
"Chris, come on man, cut it out, that just ain't right!" Joey said, prying Chris off Justin.
"But I love him!" Chris replied.
"No you don’t!" Joey and Justin yelled together.
"I don’t know why I haven't seen it before…" Chris trailed off.
"Hey, Chris, if you really love me, will you take your pants off?" Justin asked, mischief in his eyes.
Joey looked at Justin in shock as Chris replied, "Of course!"
Chris practically jumped out of his pants and handed them to Justin. Justin smiled. "Now go wait outside and I'll be there in a second."
Chris smiled seductively and went out side to wait.
Joey turned to Justin. "What are you doing? Have you gone homosexual too? We don’t need another homosexual boy band in Florida-"
"No, it's not that," Justin smiled, locking the door. "I just want J.C. to see this. Chris will never live it down…"
Joey understood. Then they both laughed their heads off.
~o0O0o~
Cupid also sat in laughing his head off. 'That was the best trick I have ever played!' he thought, almost falling out of the tree. He watched Chris wait outside patiently, although no one was coming.
Cupid wiped some tears of laughter from his face and got an even better idea. 'It's a good thing I got time to spare,' he thought, laughing again. He waved his hand, lifting the spell from Chris.
Then he sat back to watch.
~o0O0o~
J.C. and Lance pulled up, seeing Chris standing dazed and in his boxers. J.C. got out, concerned. "What the heck happened to you?" he asked, stifling a smile.
Chris wasn't sure himself, but he was sure it had to do with Justin. The last thing he remembered was sitting there watching TV, the he was out here half-naked and Justin and Joey were inside laughing at him. So he lied. "Justin and me got in a fight, and he hit me really hard. When I woke up, I was out here and my head hurts really bad and they're laughing at me and I think I may have brain damage now."
"What!? Justin hurt you? Are you okay?"
"No, my head hurts really bad…" Chris mumbled, sticking his bottom lip out slightly.
J.C. looked at Lance. "What the hell was he thinking? I'm going to talk to that boy…" J.C. growled, banging on the door.
Lance looked at Chris, who was smiling behind J.C.'s back. "Be careful he doesn't hurt you too," Chris said, making his voice quiver.
"He won't lay a hand on me," J.C. said, pushing the door open as soon as Justin opened it.
"Hey J.C., man, am I glad you're here-"
"What is your problem?" J.C. asked, pushing Justin. "We're a group! That means you don’t beat other group members senseless!"
"What are you talking about?" Justin asked, confused. He looked at Chris, who smiled triumphantly. "I didn't do anything!"
"Don't play dumb, Justin, I know it was you that hurt me and took my pants. Lord knows what you did to me while I was knocked out."
"What?! You gave me your pants! I didn't touch you while you were knocked out!" Justin said, turning red. "Wait, you weren't even knocked out!"
"Then how did I get out here with my pants off?" Chris said, turning to J.C.
"I think I'll go watch TV," Joey mumbled, slinking off.
"Justin, you better explain this," J.C. said, confused as the rest of them.
"Chris was sitting there watching TV with me, then the next thing I know, he's hitting on me! He gave me his pants and I told him to meet me outside so you could find him and laugh at him. I didn't touch him!"
J.C. looked at Chris. "Is this true?" he asked.
"No! Why would I be hitting on Justin? I'm not gay! Justin did something to me!" Chris yelled, getting upset. What was going on?
J.C. sighed. "Look, I'm going to let you two work this out. Come on Lance, let's go get something to eat."
Lance nodded his head, baffled by the situation. "I'm with you on this one," he said, walking to the car with J.C.
Justin and Chris looked at each other. "Did I really do that?" Chris asked.
"I swear to God," Justin replied.
"Hmm," Chris sighed. "Well, Happy Valentines Day!"
