Chapter 1:
“Where is she?” Nick paced back and forth in the airport, light flashing at the speed of light as fans caught glimpses of their favorite Backstreet Boy at the airport. He was waiting for his girlfriend of 5 years. Well, the next day was their anniversary. Jess had finally agreed on moving in with him down in Orlando. The 20 yr old waiting impatiently to see her again. The door opened and out came many passengers. Nick darted toward the door, leaving the other four waiting. She put her things down to fix her hat and people knocked into her. He caught glimpse of her long layered light brown hair, streaming as people pushed her forward. “Jess!” He screamed and her face shot up, searching through her glasses for her boyfriend. She slowly made her way through the people although she wanted to run. It was a clear break and she dropped her stuff, knowing the guys would grab it for her. She made a clear break and sprinted to meet him. He opened his arms up and she jumped into his embrace, his arms closing the second their bodies touched. “Angel.” He said, joyfully. Behind them the other four picked up her bags and found their way to the exit, stopping for a few autographs. The two parted and he put her down. With one hand he took her glasses off to reveal a black and blue around her gorgeous blue eyes. He gasped. “Wha..”
“Nick, we’ll talk about it later, right now I don’t want this published.” He nodded and put her glasses back on. He smiled and so did she. He quickly kissed her.
“Sorry I couldn’t wait.” He laughed. “I missed you so much, angel.”
“Nicky, I missed you too.” She smiled. “Let’s go before it's too late. Do some autographs.” She said, she always loved the fans and most of the fans accepted her as his girlfriend. He nodded and kissed her cheek. They turned around, hand in hand and walked away both smiling. Nick stopped for autographs and fans screamed out for Jess to get into the picture with Nick. Smiling she did and Nick’s arms wrapped themselves around her.
One fan asked her, “Can you take your glasses off?”
“I’m sorry but I had a reaction to the perfume a passenger had on the flight, so my eyes look terrible. I’m sorry.” Jess said, she gave the fan a hug. They made their way to the exit and went to the limo, arms linked together. A camera catching this moment, taping for another video for the boys. She poked her head in the limo, taking off her glasses, forgetting about the black eye. “Hey guys.” She said as the guys looked at her with concern. Nick got in beside her and the door shut.
“Alright, Angel. What happened?” Nick asked, putting his arms around her.
“Chad came back.” She said. Chad was her birth father, her parents had split and he came back drunk and hit her.
“That son..” Nick began.
“Nick. Cursing won’t help it. I was on the phone with Lizzy at the time and she heard me scream. She didn’t hang the phone up but used her cell to call the police. Chad’s in jail now.” Jess said.
“Thank god.” Brian said. “I’m sorry he came back but am sure glad that nothing else happened.”
“Jess, you gotta tell me when this happens.” Nick said. “You know I’m always here. I’m so glad you’re here now, out of danger.” His eyes sparkling as she looked into them.
The other guys expressed their concern and Jess smiled at them. “Thank you guys. I’m so glad to have ya’ll as friends.” Nick kissed her cheek and the guys turned on the radio, everyone began singing along.
