Respect

This series is about respect.

It starts with

Gaining Respect

Then comes

Giving Respect

Last comes

Self Respect

This story was written backwards. Meaning that Gaining Respect actually comes after Giving Respect and Giving Respect comes after Self Respect in order of actual events. Self Respect will start off before Gaining Respect and will finish off in the present.

This story is not an AU but I do take many liberties with the timelines and production credits. I know that JC didn't really produce "What's Going On" but it worked for the story line so I used it. Giving Respect is a bit brutal on Lance in the beginning but Self Respect explains why.

I do not own NSYNC, U2, O-Town or The Backstreet Boys. I make no money from this venture, so don't bother suing me.
