Chapter 22
By Katie

Nick sat on the ground, staring dumbfounded at the door where Casey had walked out on him. "I can't believe this." He said to himself but then he got a plan. If she was going to have some fun, why couldn't he?

He picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID...good thing the number was still there. He dialed the number and let it ring for a little while. When someone answered, a small smile appeared on his lips.

"Hello Vanessa? It's Nick Carter. Yes, it's me. I was wondering if you had any plans tonight?"

The phone rang and Casey jumped up trying to get it in time. "Hello?" She asked breathlessly.

"Hey girl. Catch you at a bad time? You and Nicky having a party?" Casey crumpled up her face in disgust.

"Hey Aj. No, we weren't doing anything. In fact, the asshole is still downstairs."

"Oh, you haven't killed him yet?"

"Nah, oh hey, Jane and Bob are out of town...they took the kids to try and get Nick and I to 'work things out'. Since we're obviously not going to be doing that, would you like to come over for some fun tonight?" She wiggled her eyebrows even though she knew that Aj couldn't see her.

He chuckled slightly. "Are you sure that Nickay wouldn't have a problem with that?"

"Oh, I'm sure he would, but that's all more the fun. Come on over tonight at around 11:00?"

"Ya know, I could never turn down an invitation from a beautiful lady. See ya then."

"Bye Aj." She hung up the phone and smiled to herself. She needed something, anything, to keep her mind off of Nick and their conversatoin, and Aj was going to be that something.

Casey walked down the stairs, waiting for Aj to come. It was already 11:15 and he still hadn't arrived. She hadn't heard from Nick either. Not like she was complaining but she just hadn't heard from him.

"Maybe he left." She smiled to herself. "Good, Aj and I wil have the house to ourselves"

She was just about to go back up the stairs when the phone started ringing.

"Hello?"

"Casey? I can't make it tonight. I'm sorry, something came up. But are we on for tomorrow?" Aj asked and Casey sighed.

"Sure Aj. The Carter clan won't be home for a couple more days so we'll still have the house to ourselves."

"Good. Thanks for not being mad. Don't worry, I'll make up for it later, if ya know what I mean." Casey smirked.

"Oh you better Aj, you better." She hung up the phone and looked around. It was 11:20, no one was home, and Aj wasn't coming over. What the hell was she going to do?

Casey sighed and walked towards the fridge. After raiding the fridge for about three minutes, she grabbed a coke and an apple.

Walking towards the TV, she sat down in front of it and shuffled through all the movies that they had.

"Men in Black? Nah, that's old. There's something about Mary? Nope. American Pie? Okay, I haven't seen this one yet." She said to herself and sat down on the couch to watch her movie.

Halfway into the movie, Casey heard some noises coming from upstairs. A little scared, Casey picked up her coke and tip-toed up the stiars to investigate. As she walked around the hall, she realised that the sounds were coming from Nick's room.

Laughing quietly to herself she leaned her ear up against the door. She heard Nick moan. "That freak is jacking off." She giggled to herself and continued to listen.

"NICK!! HARDER!!"

"HOLY FUCK VANESSA, I'M GONNA CUM!" Casey's eyes widened, she dropped her coke, spilling it all over the white carpet, and covered her mouth in shock.
