Brizee and her best
friend, Alicia, were in London on vacation. They walked down the street looking
at the sites.
“Did you know BSB
is in town?” Alicia said.
“Yeah, I know,”
Brizee said.
“Wish we could go
see them and NKOTB,” Alicia said.
“We did see them
when they were touring the states, Ali, this
is our vacation, not chase after the guys,” Brizee said.
“Wouldn’t
it be cool if we were just walking along and bumped
into them,” Alicia said.
“Ali,” Brizee
said. She looked around and continued walking. What
Alicia didn’t know was that Brizee knew Nick very well. They were secretly
married and no one knew, not even the guys. Brizee left Nick over three years
ago and now he has a girlfriend. As far as Brizee knew, the marriage was never
dissolved. Brizee realized that she was still very much in love with Nick and
was afraid to go back or see him again.
Meanwhile….
Nick and Howie walked
down the street in London in their disguises. So far no one saw through them.
They were able to see the sites without any fans bothering them.
“You okay, Nick,”
Howie said.
“Yeah, just thinking
about some stuff,” Nick said.
“Like what,”
Howie said. Nick looked up and saw something
that made him froze. Howie looked and saw two girls standing there looking at a
tour guide book.
“Nick,” Howie
said.
“Oh god,”
Nick said softly.
“Do you know them?”
Howie asked.
“You could say I
know one of them,” Nick said.
“Nick,” Howie
said.
“It’s a long
story,” Nick said. He watched them leave and
lost sight of them in the crowd of people. Nick sighed and they headed back to
the hotel. Nick went to his hotel room and saw Lauren sitting on the couch.
“Hi sweetie,”
Lauren said.
“Hey,” Nick
said sitting down.
“You okay, you seem
distant,” Lauren said.
“I thought I saw
someone I knew a long time ago but I don’t
know,” Nick said. He got a text message.
“Band meeting, just
the guys in Brian’s room, be back later,”
Nick said. He went to Brian’s room and walked in and saw Brian, AJ, and Howie
sitting there. He sat down.
“What’s up,”
Nick said.
“That’s what
we like to know, Howie said you saw someone you
knew and wouldn’t say how, he could tell you were hiding something, Nick, so
talk to us,” Brian said.
“About what,”
Nick said.
“He said you saw
two girls today and you said you knew one of
them and it’s a long story, so talk, Nick, you know you can tell us anything,”
Brian said.
“What if I don’t
want to,” Nick said.
“Nick, man, it’s
us, your bandmates, your best friends, your
brothers, who you can talk to about anything, we won’t judge you or get mad,”
Brian said.
“You sure about
that,” Nick said.
“Nick,” Brian
said.
“No, Brian, you
got mad and wouldn’t speak to me when I said
I was going to do a solo cd, now everything is back to normal, but I don’t know
about it after this,” Nick said.
“Nick, we have all
grown up and we will not turn our backs on
you, we will be supportive and be there for you,” Brian said. Nick looked at
them.
“Four years ago,
I met this girl, we fell in love, we
secretly got married, I got married and never told anyone, not you guys or my
family, no one knows but me and her, and the justice of the peace who married
us,” Nick said.
“You got married
without anyone there,” AJ said.
“It was a spur of
the moment thing and we got married three
weeks after we met, okay, that’s why we didn’t say anything to anybody, you
guys know how I like to keep my private life private, that was then, now they
know Lauren and they still don’t know I got married to someone else, no one
does,” Nick said.
“Nick, you have
to tell Lauren,” Brian said.
“I can’t,
okay, I don’t want to hurt her,” Nick said.
“Is the marriage
over, are you divorced?” Brian asked.
“No, she left me
three years ago and I couldn’t find her and
I had no clue where she went or why she left, there was no way of ending the
marriage without her signing divorce papers so I was stuck, I didn’t tell
anyone about it and went on with my life,” Nick said.
“And now you see
her in London and you lost track of her,” AJ
said.
“She was with another
girl and they disappeared into a crowd,
they never saw us or looked our way,” Howie said.
“Nick, do you have
a picture of her,” AJ said. Nick got out
his wallet and got out a picture that he hid after his wife left. They looked
at it.
“We will get people
looking for her,” Brian said.
“I don’t want
anyone knowing she’s my wife,” Nick said.
“Nick, you know
we won’t say anything about that, we will
just say that she is someone we would like to speak to,” Brian said. Nick
nodded.
“We will see about
staying an extra couple days since we have
to next two days off,” AJ said.
“I’m sorry,
guys,” Nick said. Howie hugged him.
“We understand,
Nick, but you should have told us, we would
have kept the secret,” Howie said.
“What was her name?”
Brian asked.
“Brizee,”
Nick said. They did a group hug and Nick went back
to his room where Lauren was.
“Everything okay?”
Lauren said.
“Yeah, just had
to talk about some things with the tour, we
are staying in London for the next couple days since we have them off,” Nick
said.
The next day, the guys
put on their disguises and hit the streets looking for Brizee. They had some of
the crew at the bus stations, the airport and the train station with Brizee’s
picture. They walked down the street and looked around and Nick looked up and saw
Brizee walking towards them with her friend. They were talking. Nick stopped
the guys and Brian looked at Nick. He nodded. Brian talked to two of the
bodyguards and they went over to Brizee and her friend while the guys went to
the hotel and went to Brian’s room. They walked in and saw Leighanne and
Baylee.
“Hey guys,”
Leighanne said. Brian talked to her and she
nodded and they went to Nick’s room. The guys went into the bedroom and took
off their disguises. The bodyguards brought Brizee and Alicia into the room.
“Please have a seat,”
Billy said. Brizee and Alicia sat down.
They looked around.
“What is going on,
why are we here?” Alicia asked.
“My boss asked me
to bring you here,” Billy said.
“Who is your boss?”
Alicia said. Nick walked out of the bedroom.
“Me,” Nick
said. Alicia’s eyes widened. Brizee sat there
frozen still. She knew Billy but couldn’t let Alicia know that. Nick walked
over and stood in front of the girls.
“Hi, I’m Nick,”
Nick said shaking hands with Alicia.
“I’m Alicia,
this is Brizee,” Alicia said.
“I know who she
is,” Nick said.
“Briz,” Alicia
said.
“You mean she doesn’t
know,” Nick said.
“No,” Brizee
said.
“What is going on?”
Alicia said.
“I know Brizee really
well, she’s my wife,” Nick said.
“What!” Alicia
said.
“Ali,” Brizee
said.
“You are married
to Nick and you never told me, we are best
friends, we never kept secrets from each other, but you were keeping this from
me, how could you!” Alicia said.
“I’m sorry,
okay, I met you after I left him, I never told
anyone,” Brizee said.
“No one but me and
her knew we got married, I didn’t even
tell the guys until yesterday, I saw you two out yesterday,” Nick said. Alicia
looked at him and she looked at Brizee.
“Why did you leave
him, Briz?” Alicia said.
“That’s what
I want to know,” Nick said.
“That’s what
we all want to know,” Brian said as he, AJ, and
Howie came out of the bedroom.
“I honestly don’t
know why I did, at first I thought it was
going too fast, or I hardly knew the real Nick, but I honestly don’t know anymore,”
Brizee said. Nick sighed and sat down.
“So what are we
supposed to do now, I’m with someone else and
you and I are still married, since you are here now, how about a divorce,” Nick
said.
“How can we divorce
without anyone knowing,” Brizee said. Nick
groaned.
“She’s right,”
Nick said.
“Nick, you know
what you have to do,” Brian said.
“I know, I’ll
be back,” Nick said. He left the room.
Leighanne and Baylee came in and Brian went with them to the bedroom. Brizee
sat there looking at her hands.
“Briz,” Alicia
said.
“I’m sorry
I didn’t tell you, Ali,” Brizee said.
“It’s okay,
I understand,” Alicia said. They heard a door
slam and AJ looked out and saw Lauren heading for the elevator with her bags.
He came back in.
“Lauren left,”
AJ said.
“I can’t believe
this,” Brizee said.
“Brizee, it’s
not your fault, he wasn’t honest with her,”
Howie said.
“But it is, if I
hadn’t of left him, she wouldn’t have a
broken heart,” Brizee said.
“Maybe you should
go talk to him,” AJ said. Brizee went to
Nick’s room and knocked on the door. He opened it and saw her and pulled her in
and closed the door.
“AJ saw Lauren leave,
I’m sorry, Nick,” Brizee said.
“Are you really,”
Nick said.
“I’m sorry,
okay, I’m sorry you are hurting because she left,
none of this would have happened if you hadn’t had Billy drag me here, we could
have gone on with our lives with no problems,” Brizee said.
“There is a problem,
we are still married and I couldn’t
marry Lauren if I wanted to!” Nick said.
“How about this,
we get a divorce now and you go after her,”
Brizee said.
“It’s too
late, okay, I lied to her, she can’t forget that or
forgive, it’s over, for good,” Nick said.
“I’m sorry,
I don’t know what else to say,” Brizee said. He
came over and pulled her to him and kissed her hard on the lips.
“Say you want to
come back to me, that you won’t leave me
again, she left because I’m still in love with you,” Nick said.
“Oh god,”
Brizee said as she kissed him softly. He deepened
the kiss and he lifted her up and carried her into the bedroom and clothes went
flying and they collapsed on the bed and they made love. He laid beside her
afterwards and pulled her close to him.
“Just as good as
I remember,” Nick said.
“Yeah,” Brizee
said.
“Briz, please don’t
leave me again, it almost destroyed me
last time,” Nick said.
“I won’t,
I promise, it feels so right this time, it is like
we are meant to be together,” Brizee said. He kissed her forehead.
“No one is going
to know unless word leaks out and then we
will have to hold a press conference and tell the truth,” Nick said. Brizee
laid there.
“I don’t want
anyone to hate us for this,” Brizee said.
“If they hate us,
they aren’t true fans,” Nick said.
“You don’t
think Lauren will go to the press with this, will
she,” Brizee said.
“She may be upset
and hurting, but she knows what to do,”
Nick said. Brizee looked up at him.
“So I guess I better
get my stuff and join the tour,” Brizee
said. Nick stroked her face.
“Yup,” Nick
said.
“What about Alicia?”
Brizee asked.
“She can come with
us,” Nick said. She smiled and they kissed
before making love again.
The next day, they went
to Brian’s room to meet everyone. They went in and sat down.
“We are together,”
Nick said.
“Okay,” Brian
said. He introduced Leighanne and Baylee to
Brizee.
“She and Alicia
are joining the tour,” Nick said.
“Cool,” Alicia
said.
“Nick,” AJ
said.
“What, AJ, she’s
my wife, she is going with me and Alicia is
her best friend,” Nick said.
“It would be easier
if Alicia went too, AJ,” Howie said.
Three weeks later, they
were in Paris. News got out about Brizee and Nick’s marriage. Lauren had told
one of her friends who went to a reporter. The guys held a press conference and
Nick confessed that he and Brizee were married and introduced her to the world.
He explained everything and so far there has been no negative press or hate
mail. Fans have met Brizee at the meet and greets and were very nice to her and
some of the fans wanted a picture with her or her autograph. The guys had
introduced the girls to the guys with New Kids on the Block and Alicia hooked
up with Donnie. Brizee laid on the couch in Nick’s dressing room. She wasn’t
feeling good. Nick came in and closed the door.
“How are you feeling?”
Nick asked.
“Not good,”
Brizee said. She felt sick and ran into the
bathroom and threw up. Nick came in and held her hair back as she threw up in
the toilet. He got a wet washcloth and put it on the back of her neck.
“Maybe we should
go to the doctor,” Nick said.
“Why,” Brizee
said.
“Briz, you’ve
been like this for two days, this isn’t a 24
hour bug,” Nick said. She nodded and they went to the hospital and she was in a
room with Nick. He sat there holding her hand while the doctor ran some tests
and left the room. Nick sent a text to Brian about where he was. The doctor
came back in.
“The tests show
that you are pregnant, three weeks to be
exact,” the doctor said. They thanked
him and went back to the venue and went to his dressing room. Brizee laid on
the couch. Nick sat down beside her and stroked her cheek.
“Must of happened
when we got back together,” Nick said.
“Yeah,” Brizee
said.
“We better tell
everyone,” Nick said. Brizee nodded.
“Can you tell them,
I’m tired,” Brizee said. He nodded and
kissed her softly and went out the door and found the guys and Alicia hanging
out in the game room.
“Guys, Ali, I have
some news, Briz and I are having a baby,”
Nick said. They all looked at each other.
“Congratulations!”
they said hugging him.
“Where’s Briz?”
Alicia asked.
“She’s tired,
she’s laying down in the dressing room,” Nick
said. She went to see her best friend and sat down.
“Hey,” Brizee
said.
“Congratulations,”
Alicia said.
“Thanks,”
Brizee said.
“You okay,”
Alicia said.
“I’m just
tired, was throwing up most of the night,” Brizee said.
Alicia nodded.
“And where was your
hubby?” Alicia said.
“Sleeping, Ali,
they had a show last night, remember,” Brizee
said.
“I know, but I thought
he would be up with you,” Alicia said.
Brizee shook her head.
“He needed to sleep,
Ali, he works hard out on stage with the
dancing and singing, he is exhausted when the show is over,” Brizee said.
“Well, I better
let you rest, I’ll get Nick back in here with
you,” Alicia said. Brizee nodded and closed her eyes. Alicia went out and got
Nick and he went back to his dressing room. He went in and saw her lying there
resting. He went and climbed on top of her. She opened her eyes.
“Hey,” Nick
said.
“Hey yourself,”
Brizee said. He smiled and kissed her softly
before moving to where he was lying behind her and he held her close and she
rested against him.
“This is much better,”
Brizee said closing her eyes. He
rested a hand on her stomach.
“Yeah,” Nick
said kissing the back of her neck. His cell
phone rang. He pulled out his phone and saw it was Lauren.
“Hello, what do
you want, oh really, no, you chose to leave,
I’m still married and staying that way, no, you blabbed it to a friend who told
a reporter and now everyone knows I’m married and who my wife is, you betrayed
my trust, no, I trusted you to keep my private life private but you had to open
your mouth, no, Lauren, we are done, you said so yourself and I accepted that
and I’m with my wife and staying with her for better or for worse, til death do
us part, that was the vows and that’s how it’s going to be so have a nice life
and don’t call me again, goodbye,” Nick said. He hung up the phone.
