Author's Notes: Based on a phone conversation we (Tess and I) overheard in Stockholm during the NG tour. From what we could tell, Drew called Nick, woke him, and later in the same conversation asked where Howie was.
Nick Carter put down the phone and lay back down on the bed. Still groggy he turned so he was lying face to face with AJ McLean.
“Who was it?” AJ asked, his feet half dangling off the bed.
“Drew” Nick answered, squinting to see AJ better, rubbing sleep from his eyes. AJ hadn't been there last night, he thought. And it also seemed AJ was clothed. He moved his naked foot, feeling the denim of AJ's jeans. Yep, he was clothed.
“What are you doing here?” he asked, trying to remember new details from the previous night in order to explain AJ's presence on his bed.
“I was looking for you. What did Drew want?” AJ replied, grinning at Nick.
“He wanted to tell me to get my ass moving. Apparently we have get going. He also asked about Howie.” He paused, waiting for AJ to say something. When AJ didn't he said “Now, not that I mind or anything, but why are you here, on my bed?” He half motioned towards AJ's body lying on his bed, and got a grin in return.
“I told you. I was looking for you.” He got up off the bed and started for the door. Halfway there he turned and fixed his eyes directly on Nick.
“Howie let me in. He's in the bathroom by the way. Hurry up now you two. We don't wanna keep Drew waiting.” With a laugh he left the bedroom, closing the door behind him.
Nick sighed and got out of bed, shaking his head as he made his way to the bathroom.
FIN.
