Pairing (so to speak): Nick Carter/JC Chasez/Brian Littrell/Justin Timberlake
Disclaimer: The young men who comprise the Backstreet Boys and *NSYNC are their own people. The author has not met anyone here described, nor does the author mean to suggest that these people act this way in real life. These writings are works of fiction. I make no money from this venture.
Dedication: This slashfic is for Ewan McGregor and the Savage Garden slashers.

"You can't!" Even coming in mid-conversation, JC worried at the fear in Justin's shout. "You can't, Carter-"
"Carter? What happened to 'Oh, Nick,'" Nick moaned. "'Oh, Nick-'"
"Shut up! Go to hell, go to-"
"Don't you turn away from me, bitch. Oh, that's right, cry. Cry, you spoiled bitch baby. You've been playing us all and it stops today."
"I-"
"What? What is it, spoiled brat, what do you want to say to me?"
"You can't do this," Justin said, his voice rich with pain.
"The fuck I can't," Nick said. "And who do you think they'll choose?"
"They love me," Justin said, but that was no answer.
"Brian's my best friend, we're Backstreet Boys, you think he'd walk away from me?"
Justin made a noise of protest.
"And you think JC would rather be with me and Brian, or you? You think you can ever be enough for him anymore?"
"You-"
"You're gone, baby. Go."
The front door slammed.
