// WHAT THE.... //


"Are you ever going to speak to me again? I'm sorry. So sorry. How
many times can I say it? Lance, are you listening to me?"

"Yes."

"Please look at me. Please."

"I'm too angry, Justin."

"Then look at me angry. Just, please, don't not  look at me. You're
scaring me."

" I'm  scaring  * you *? What the fuck just happened out there?"

"I…don't …know."

"What the fuck does that mean? `I don't know.' You're the one who did
it."

"I know, Lance. How many times can I say I'm sorry?"

"Sorry ain't nearly enough, Justin. What the fuck are we supposed to
say now? How are supposed to explain that?"

"I ….what did Johnny say?"

"He said `Sit tight and don't say a word.' And that's just what we're
going to do even if we have to stay in here forever."

"Lance, please, I'm…"

"Do * not * even say it, Justin or I swear, I will strangle you."

"Lance, are you going to forgive me?"

"I just don't understand what happened, baby."

"Well, that interviewer was going on and on  with you and the
sunlight came through the window and it hit your hair just so…."

"Justin, you are fucking nuts."

"No, seriously, the light hit the blond streaks and something
happened. I thought about running my fingers through it when we have
sex and I thought about how it looks when you're wet from the shower
and I thought about how all those girls that think I'm sexier than
you are assholes."

"Justin?"

"Stop looking at me like you think I'm making this up. I * was *
thinking all that and more. I was thinking that I love you and how
lucky I am and I wish we could touch in public and dance sexy in
clubs and not have girlfriends hanging all over us…."

"So you decided that everyone should know. Today. The whole fucking
world."

"No, I didn't decide that. I didn't decide anything."

"But you…."

"I know, but I didn't decide to do that. I just forgot where we were
and I kissed you lightly on the nose and…."

"…suddenly there was no more secret."
