THE FAN
Two

�You PROMISE you�ll give her a chance?� JC persisted as their plane landed at LAX.
�JC, for God�s sake, yes. I�ll be the picture of politeness,� Justin promised.
�Justin, I don�t want you to be �the picture� of anything. I want you to be yourself.�
�Okay, okay,� Justin grumbled.
They got off the plane and went to the car rental counter. JC had wanted this trip to be as low-key as possible, and they hadn�t even brought bodyguards with them. JC picked up the keys and tossed them to Justin. �You drive. I�ll navigate.�
Justin got behind the wheel and they were soon on the freeway. �I hate L.A.,� Justin griped.
�Will you just relax?� JC asked. �See how nice and relaxed this is? Lara�s a normal person, so we can just veg and have fun. No need to put on a performance or anything.�
�You�re really pushing this whole fan thing,� Justin teased.
�I just want you to see past it,� JC said. �Give her a chance.�
�I will. I mean it,� Justin said sincerely.

�There. The building on the left,� JC told Justin, consulting the directions Lara had emailed to him. Justin slowly drove through the apartment complex. JC�s face lit up. �There she is.�
Justin pulled into a space and JC flew out of the car as soon as it stopped. He swept someone into his arms and kissed them passionately. Another girl, a girl with brown hair and brown eyes, stood by and laughed. She looked at Justin as he approached. �Hi. You�re Justin? I�m Shelly.� She looked back at the couple. �And that person that JC is currently smothering is Lara.�
�I missed you,� JC murmured into Lara�s long hair. He finally looked over at Justin and blushed. �Oh, uh, Justin? This is Lara. Lara, Justin Timberlake.�
Lara pulled back and Justin was surprised to see tears running out of her blue eyes. He then realized that she and JC hadn�t seen each other for over a month. �Hi,� he said.
�Hi,� she said, giggling through her tears. �It�s really nice to finally meet you.� She held out her hand and he took it. �C�mon inside. We have lunch waiting for you guys.�
�You�re what looks good enough to eat.� JC snuggled close to her as they walked up into Shelley�s building. Justin rolled his eyes.
�Is he always this mushy?� Shelley asked him. Justin shook his head.
�I have never seen this side of him.�
�She�ll eat it up with a spoon,� Shelly informed Justin. �Lara�s a diehard romantic.�
The men sat down at the table, and Shelley served them chicken pitas and fruit salad. Lara sat down and just watched JC eat. �He�s not gonna disappear,� Shelley said, amused.
Lara sighed and blushed. �I know. I just�I missed him.�
�Hello, you don�t have to talk about me like I�m not here,� JC said.
�He missed you, too,� Justin told her. She blushed again.
�So�where are you guys staying?� Shelley sat down on Justin�s other side.
�We have a couple of suites in the city,� Justin told her. She smiled and played with a placemat, then looked at Lara.
�So�you packed?�
�Huh?� Lara looked confused.
�You�re staying with him for at least a few nights, right?�
�No! I�m staying with you. I�m here to visit YOU!� Lara protested. Shelley rolled her eyes.
�Puhleese. You guys NEVER see each other. I�m always here. Go. Stay with him. In fact, go upstairs and pack a bag right NOW.� Shelley pinched Lara�s arm. Lara looked at JC, who winked at her over his pita. Lara got up and ran upstairs.
Justin looked at Shelley for a long moment. He knew that if someone had come to stay with Britney, then decided to crash with her boyfriend, Britney would have been personally insulted and quite furious. He admired Shelley for this attitude.
�So, Lara and I thought maybe the four of us could get together for dinner some night?� JC said. �What do you guys think?�
�I�m free any night,� Shelley said. �I work until four, but I�m home by about quarter to five.�
�Where do you work?� Justin asked.
�I�m a teacher at the community college. My last class is done at four,� she replied.
�I think it�d be nice,� Justin said. �Dinner, I mean. I know I won�t see much of you,� he gently teased JC. JC rolled his eyes.
�God. You make me sound like some kind of horndog.�
�Aren�t you?� Shelley and Justin said together. Shelley laughed.
�It�s unanimous,� she said. She got up and cleared away their plates. �I have some apple pie here if you want dessert.�
�We don�t want to eat all your food,� JC began.
�I made it special�for the two of you,� she told them. She cut two slices and served them.
�This is SO good,� Justin mumbled around his pie. He couldn�t remember the last time Britney had made anything in the kitchen. He wondered why he was so busy comparing Shelley to Britney.
�Okay.� Lara came into the kitchen with a duffle bag. �I�m ready.�
�Are you moving in for a month?� JC said in disbelief. She slapped him.
�Maybe there are all kinds of sex toys in here,� she said with a sly grin. JC stood immediately.
�Let�s go.�
Justin rolled his eyes as he got up. �Shelley, it was nice to meet you. Thanks so much for lunch.�
�My pleasure. You call if you need anything, okay? I�m sure you know L.A., but I�m also sure I know it better.� Shelley walked them to the door. �Lara has my number�actually, JC should, too. If you get bored this week, call.�
�Thank you,� Justin said. He followed the couple out to the rental car and they drove off.
Shelley closed her front door and slid down it, legs shaking. She couldn�t believe that Justin Timberlake and JC Chasez had just eaten in her kitchen. She made herself go out and clean up the kitchen, debating on whether she should put Justin�s leftover pita up on ebay. She laughed at herself and dropped the leftovers into the trash.
