Friends Or More

~Chapter 1~

Why I never told him in the first place I will never know.  It would have saved us a lot of time and heart ache.  The fact that we were both dating someone else didn't really help much either.  We have been friends for so long. Yet we never told each other how we felt until now.  It only brought more confusion and we really didn't need that.  Here's my story
------------
My name is Amy.  I'm 22 years old and live in Orlando Florida.  I have known the Backstreet Boys for about 2 years now.  They are all my best friends.  They are more like brothers to me than anything else. 
Brian had to be the one I could trust the most.  I could just tell him anything.  A.J. meant a lot to me.  I don't go to him with secrets though cause he can?t keep his big mouth shut.  But when I had that sudden erg to party he was the one I would take with me because he was always fun to party with. Nick is the one that I would go hang out with when I didn't want to do anything because he was pretty much always home.  Howie is the one that I could also talk to but for some reason didn't that much.  We never seemed to get along all
that well.  I guess we are just too different.  Kevin is the one that I would go to for advice.  Like Brian I really trusted him and could also tell him almost everything.
I live about 5 minutes away from Brian.  That is pretty much why I am really good friends with him.  Since he was the closest to me, I would always go over there when I had nothing better to do.  My room mate Michelle thinks I have a crush on him.  I glare at her every time she says it.
"I do not have a crush on him!  He's like a brother to me!" I argued.
"OK you just think that."  Michelle said.
"OK I will because I know I don't have feelings for him.  I have a boyfriend.  Why would I have feelings for anyone else when I am dating the most wonderful guy on earth?  Besides I think you have the hots for him."  I started laughing, then dodged the pillow that she had thrown at me.
"I do not!  I have a boyfriend too!"  She said.
"Yeah well still I think you like him.  And you are just accusing me to hide it. Geez Michelle you really like that family don't you?  First Kevin and now you like Brian."  I said.  I opened the door and said.  "Well I am going to go see Troy."
"See ya.  And I do not like Brian!  Kevin is a lot better!"
I closed the door laughing and got into my green mustang. Troy his my boyfriend.  We have been dating for almost a year now.  He's 24.  He's the sweetest guy in the world, but for some reason Brian didn't like him all that much.  I didn't really care what anyone thought about him, but it bothered me that Brian hated him so much.

~Chapter 2~

I pulled into Troy's driveway and walked in the door.  His friend John was there as always.  John really annoyed me.  He was just so loud and rude.  We never got along.
"Oh it's you again."  John said glaring at me.  "Why are you always here?  You don't live here."
"Neither do you!  Where is he?"  I asked.
"In his room."  he answered.  "I think he's sleeping or something.  I haven't seen him today."
"Then why are you here?"
"Because I am waiting for him to come down here.  I don't have anything else to do."
"Oh yeah that's because you don't have a job!"  I walked up the stairs before he could say anything else.  I really hated talking to him.  He is such a dumb ass.
"Hey hun."  I said as I walked into the room.  He was on the computer and quickly got off when he saw me.  I didn't think anything of it.  He got up and kissed me.
"Dumb ass is downstairs just so you know."  I said.
"Please don't call him that."  He said.  "I wish you two would be nicer to each other."
"Yeah well I'm sorry but I don't think so.  He just really bugs me and he doesn't know the meaning of nice."
"Why are you here?"  He asked changing the subject.
"Well I have off today and I thought that we could do something for a change."  I answered.
"Sorry babe, but I have a class today and I really can't miss it.  I have to leave right now too."  He kissed me again and we both walked downstairs and outside.
"I'll talk to you tonight."  I said as I got into my car.
"I won't be here tonight.  John and I are going out."  He replied.
"Oh, well then I just talk to you whenever."  I started my car and headed for Brian's.  I felt like talking to him for awhile.  For some reason Troy has been pushing me away a lot lately and I didn't know why.

~Chapter 3~

I walked into Brian's house and saw that he was sleeping on the couch.
"I love doing this."  I said to myself.  I walked to the couch and plugged Brian's nose.
"Hey."  He said gently smacking my hand off his face.  "I'm up I'm up.  I hate it when you do that."
"Yeah but I like doing that."  I smiled at him.  "So why aren't you out having fun with your girlfriend?"  I asked sitting on the floor next to him.
"Kristine?  Oh she had to work today."  He answered.  "Hey I thought you were going to spend the day by Troy's."
"He supposedly had to go to a class.  I think he is cheating on me.  Or he just doesn't feel the same towards me anymore.  He's pushing me away."
"Well have you talked to him about it?"  he asked.
"Well how can I if he leaves after about 5 minutes?"
"I don't know."  Just then Nick walked into the door.
"Hey guys."  He said.
"Hey."  We both said.
"What's up?"  Brian asked.
"Oh nothing I just got sick of sitting in the house."
"Oh my got Nicky got sick of sitting in the house!  Call an ambulance this boy is sick!"  I said.
"Funny."  He said and sat in a chair.
"Wanna shoot some hoops?"  Brian asked.
"Sure."  Nick said.
"OK you and Amy against me." 
"Why are we on the same team?"  I asked.
"Because I am better than both of you two put together."  he answered.
"Sure Rok you think that." I rolled my eyes.
"OK I will."

~Chapter 4~

Nick and I beat Brian by 2 points.  He wanted a rematch but Nick and I didn't want to play again because we knew that we wouldn't be able to win again.  Brain wouldn't have gone as easy on us.
"Oh come on just one more game."  Brian pleaded.
Just then Kristine and my other room mate Lauren pulled into the drive way.
"Hey guys."  Kristine said as her and Lauren got out of the car. 
"Hey."  Brian said and kissed her.
"God do they have to make out every minute they are together?"  I whispered to Lauren.
"They're not making out."  she said. 
"Then what do you call that?"  I pointed to them still kissing.
"Saying hello?"  she said.
"What are you guys talking about?"  Nick asked.
"Nothing."  I replied. 
"Is Amy jelious?"  Lauren teased.
"Are you talking about Frick?"  Nick asked.
"Why would I be jelious when I already have a boyfriend?"  I said ignoring Nick.  He was so nosy.
"Because you like him."  Lauren said.  I turned around to look at Brian who was still kissing Kristine.
"God I hope they get stuck like that."  I commented.  This was the first time that I got mad when I saw Brian having a small make out session.  Why is that?
"Awe Ames has the hots for Frick.  I think you two would make a cute couple."  Nick said. I was about to say something when Brian and Kristine walked over to us to see what we were talking about.
"Who would make a cute couple?"  Brian asked with his arm around Kristine.
"No one."  I said looking at Nick and Lauren kind of warning them to keep their mouths shut.
"OK.  Well Kristine and I are going to take off."  he said.
"Is it ok that you get a ride back with Amy?"  Kristine asked Lauren.
"Oh yeah that's fine."  she replied.
~Yeah don't ask me if it's ok that I take her.~ I thought.
It's not that it mattered.  Lauren did live in the same apartment but something about Kristine really bothered me.
~Oh my god!~  I thought.  ~I do love Brian~

~Chapter 5~

*At the apartment*

I was in such a bad mood now.  I was grouchy to anyone that crossed my path.
"Well I'm going out with Howie tonight see you later." Lauren said.
"Why?"  I asked.
"Well let me see......He is my boyfriend.  Buh bye now!" She walked out the door.
"Well I'm leaving too.  Going out with Kevin.  Oh let me answer for you.  Because he is my boyfriend.  See ya!" Michelle said.  She walked out the door before I could say anything.
"Ok everyone is going out but me.  This is going to be some night."  I said to myself. 
~What am I going to do tonight?  Oh yeah sit here like I do every Friday night.  There is something up with Troy.  Is he cheating on me?~
I decided to go for a little walk.  You know, have some fun all by my self.  Not.  I got up and walked out the door.  I walked into a park that is about a half a mile away from my apartment.  I walked around there for awhile, not seeing anyone at all.  Then I saw a couple making out up ahead of me.  One of them looked like someone I knew.  I slowly walked a little closer.  It was Kristine. 
~Oh great.~  I thought.  ~Another fun make out session between Brian and Kristine.~  I started to walk the other way when I saw that it wasn't Brian that was with Kristine.  It was Troy.

~Chapter 6~

I ran the other way so that they wouldn't see me.  I wanted to see if Troy was going to continue lying to me about doing something else.  But there was one thing I had to do.  Go to Brian's house and tell him what I saw. 
When I got the apartment I got into my car and drove to Brian's house. I saw that A.J. and Nick were over there since their cars were in the driveway.
"Hey guys."  I said as I walked into the house.
"Hey."  They all said.
"Umm Brian can I talk to you for a sec?  Alone?"  I asked.
"Yeah sure."  he said and we went into his room.  It was pretty messy in there but hey he's a guy.  It was mostly just clothes all over the floor.
"What's up?"  he asked.
"Well.............Hey why aren't you out with Kristine tonight anyway?"  I asked.
"She also had to work the late shift tonight.  This isn't why you wanted to talk to me is it?"  He asked.
"Well kind of.  I went for a walk in the park tonight, and I saw Troy there."
"Yeah and....."
"I saw him kissing another woman."
"I told you he was no good."
"I'm not finished.  I saw him kissing..........."
"Who?"  he interrupted.
"Kristine."  There was a long pause.
"Kristine."  he said.  "That can't be right.  You're just seeing things.  She wouldn't do anything like that to me."
"Well she did."  I argued.
"The park was dark.  How do you know that was even her?"
"I would know her anywhere."  I answered.  "Brian you have got to believe me.  I wish I wasn't the one telling you this."
"Then why are you telling me this?  I know that can't be her.  She is working."
"Well Troy said he was going out with John.  I'm sorry but I didn't see him making out with John!  I saw him with Kristine."
"Amy, she isn't cheating on me!  What kind of a friend would say something like that?"
"A real one because it's true."
"No it's not."  He said.  "Now please leave and stop trying to ruin my life.  We love each other and I know she wouldn't do anything like that."
"I thought the same with Troy."  I said looking away.  I could feel the tears coming.  "But I was wrong.  I'm sorry for trying to be a good friend Brian.  I'll go."  I walked out of his room and tried to slip out the door before Nick and A.J. could see me.  It was too late.  They did see me.  I didn't stop.  I just ran out the door but A.J. stopped me.
"Hey why are you crying?"  He asked.
I opened the car door.  "Ask your friend."  I said and left.
