Chapter 1

     Anndee walked down the stairs. In a decent mood, she had been pretty depressed for the last few months. As she got to the last stair she looked up. "Oh my god!" She said. It was him. He was standing right in front of her. It had been months since she had seen or heard from him, granted she wouldn't take his phone calls, but he was actually there in her living room!
     "Hi" he said.
     Just the sound of that one word coming out of his mouth brought back memories. Days of taking naps with one another, of holding hands, of walking on the beach, of long phone conversations when he was on the road, of just being the happiest she had ever been. "Get out" Anndee said.
     " I am NOT going anywhere, DeeDee!" JC said.
     "Don't call me that" She said, "and yes you are, you don't belong here!"
     "I belong were ever you are." He said.
     Her heart that had been cold and broken and unmoving for months, suddenly moved with a pain so bad she wanted to cry. But she had been crying for months, and no more tears would flow. "You belong with the group," said she. "they need you!"
     "And I need YOU!"
Oh dear god she thought, I love him so much. She wanted to scream with the pain that was engulfing her. "JC you better leave" she said, "I'm expecting someone soon."
"Oh really, who?"
"A date" she said. That wasn't really a lie, her best friends Cori and Shanna were coming over to try to get her out of the house, like they have done every Thursday for the last few months. The pained expression on JC's face nearly killed her. "Did you really think I wouldn't move on?" she said.
     "No, I guess not" he said.
     Well your wrong, she thought. "I am going to go upstairs and when I return I want you gone." She started up the stairs.      "I love you" he said.
     She stopped, I love you too she thought, but said instead, the truth, "well you shouldn't." and walked upstairs.

Chapter 2

     "Oh god, I can't take this anymore" Anndee sobbed in Cori's arms.
     "Then why do you?" Shanna asked.
     "All you have to do is go to him" Cori said.
     "He loves you" they said in unison.
     "You know he would willingly give up his career for you." Cori stated.
     "That's the point Cori" Anndee said between slowing sobs.
     "You would never have been in this mess if it wasn't for that guy from Transcon" said Shanna.
     "All that guy did was state the truth" Anndee said, "if I stayed with JC his career, and the rest of the guys careers would be in Jeopardy!"
     "So your willing to go through all this pain to save their careers?" Shanna asked.
     "You've asked this question before."
     "We have been through this whole scene before, Anndee!"
     "Then you already know my answer."
     "Yes," Shanna and Cori sighed, "we do."

Chapter 3

Flashback-One year ago

      Anndee was sitting in a beach chair watching the fire works over the ocean. She suddenly got the urge to sing something patriotic. "For beautiful, for spacious skies, for amber waves of grain...for purple mountains majesties, ABOVE the fruited plains. AMERICA, America, god shed his grace on thee..."
     "That's pretty sissy"
     "Thanks Cassie," Anndee said to her little sister.
     "Sing amazed Gracie" said Cassie.      Anndee laughed to herself, "You mean Amazing Grace, sweetie, ok. Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me... I once was lost but know I am found, was blind but know I see..."
     "Hey that was pretty good"      "Huh?, oh thanks" Anndee turned to see who had spoken to her.
    "Sing something else" he said.
     "I don't have a trained voice or anything" she said, "I just enjoy singing"
    "So Sing" he said.
    Anndee sang some other patriotic songs and a bit from phantom of the opera, at the request of Cassie.
    "You are REALLY good" He said. "I own a company called Transcontinental, My name is Lou Pearlman, I'd like to sit down and talk with you"

Chapter 4

   Anndee walked out of the Airport and into a cab. "Transcontinental Records please" she told the driver. I can't believe this is happening to me, she thought, I've got a record deal and top notch management, and I am gonna finally get some voice lessons to put some finess to my voice. And Hell she thought, I'm in Florida, I wonder if I'll get to go to Disneyworld?
     She was deep in a daydream about Jeff from 98 degrees when she felt the cab stop. She looked out the window and saw it, Transcontinental Records. "I'm here" she said, getting out of the cab.      "Yeah and 15 bucks go here" said the driver with his palm out.
     Anndee dug the $15 dollars out of her purse and handed it to the driver. The driver left and Anndee with bags in tow walked into the main office.
     "Hi I'm Anndee Claracuzio, Mr. Pearlman is excepting me" she said to the lady at the desk.
      "OH yes hello, just leave your bags here and someone will take care of them, and come with me."
     A half an hour later Anndee was sitting in a room with her new vocal coach on her way to a dream she didn't know she even had until about a week ago. I can't believe it she thought, this is so amazing.

Chapter 5

A month and a half later

     "Tell me why did you have to go, tell me why I feel so alone.....Tell me you love me."
     "Cut, print, I think we got it" Max Martin said into the mic in the booth.
      Anndee smiled and put her headphones down.
     "We have a weak to put four more tracks down" He said.
     "But we only have 3 more written" Anndee responded.
     "No we don't we have four"
     "We DO?"
     "Yes, we are gonna put "Eternity" on the album."
     Anndee gave Max a puzzled look, "but that's a duet, who are we gonna get to sing with me?"
      "Another Transcon Artist" Max said.
    "Who?"
     "Ever hear of *N Sync?" he asked.
     "Like duh, Max!"
     nbsp;"Well we asked JC if he would do it."
     "JC you asked JC Chasez to sing with me?" she asked in shock.
      Hey all agreed to do it, but he has the best voice out the 5 of them so we chose him, why would you rather have Justin?" he teased.
     "No no JC is fine, He's more than fine."she said. She stood there a moment then, "OH MY GOD, I am gonna sing with JC Chasez, YEAHHHH!" she yelled as Max laughed.

Chapter 6

Almost one week later

     Anndee was sitting on a stool in front of the mic, with her headphones in her lap. Max was in the booth, "I wonder what's taking him so long?" Max questioned.
     "I'm sure he has his reasons," Anndee stated.
     As soon as the words came from her mouth JC burst into the room, "I AM SOOO SORRY! Stuck in traffic."      "It's okay," Anndee assured him, "but it's nothing compared to the traffic in South Cali, the North 405 on a Friday afternoon is like a test of wills and sanity, and I almost always loose."
      JC looked at her with a smile, She has the prettiest blue eyes I have ever seen, he thought.
     "Yes," she said.
     "Yes what?" JC asked coming out of his daze.
     "Yes they are contacts, you were staring," she answered.
     "Oh I'm sorry, so they're colored?"
     "No tinted" she replied.
     "What's the difference?"
     "Tinted contacts enhance the color of my eyes, instead of changing the colors of my eyes," Anndee answered.
     "Oh okay, I got it," JC exclaimed, "so that's why you wear contacts, to enhance the color of your eyes?" he asked.
     "NO, so I can see objects, I would run into otherwise," she stated.
     He laughed," but you could always wear clear contacts."
      "Then they would be harder to find when I drop them, and I have the tendency to to that a lot." She smiled.
     "I shouldn't assume things," he laughed," I apologize."
     "No need to I'm used to it."
"Well if it helps any," he said, "you REALLY do have pretty eyes."
     "So do you," she said.
     "Thanks," he replied.
     Her eyes widened with surprise," I said that out loud didn't I?" she asked.
      "Yes you did," JC and Max said together, laughing.
     "Oops," Anndee replied.
     "Why don't you to get to know one another better," Max suggested as he stood up, "while I go find Lou."
      "Well after all that and you still don't know my name, how rude of me," Anndee said.
    nbsp; "Actually, I do," JC responded, "Lou told me about you your name is Anndromita."
     Anndee grimaced. "I guess I'm gonna have to have another talk with him," she said," PLEASE call me ANNDEE!"
     "No prob, I kinda like Anndromita though, it's unique," he said, "by the way I'm...."
      Anndee interjected, "I know who you are, I haven't been in orbit or anything for the last few years!"
     He laughed, "No I guess not."

Chapter 7

A few days later

Lou Pearlman and Max Martin sat in the booth in total awe as they listened to JC and Anndee sing.
    Anndee: all of the days
    JC: all of the hours
    Both: all of the minutes with you...
    Anndee: Oh, I would give
    JC: I would give
    both: My life
    Anndee: to spend
    JC: to have
    both: an eternity with you...
     "That was great guys" Lou exclaimed as everyone in the booth applauded.
     "I can't believe it," Max said," each time you sing it, it just gets even better." Anndee and JC smiled at one another.
     "There is just some sort of magic that goes through the air when you two sing together," Max exclaimed," I don't know if you had noticed?"
     "But we sure do!" Lou interjected.
     Anndee had noticed and it both scared and excited her.
     "Anndee I have a proposition for you." Lou said.
     "What?" she asked.
     "JC and I have been talking and we think it would be a good idea if you toured with the guys before you went off on your own." Lou said.
     "What do you say?" JC asked.
     "NO WAY, like I would wanna tour with *N Sync, " she responded sarcastically," Like duh, of course I would!"
     "Great," Lou said.
"Fantastic," JC replied.
     "I mean hey," Anndee quipped, "it worked for Britney."

Chapter 8

A few days later

     JC, Justin, Lance, Joey and Chris are rehearsing for their upcoming tour. "And 1, 2, 3..."
     "Break time," the choreographer yelled.
     All 5 of them collapsed to the ground at the same time.
     "So?" Justin asked, " Is this Anndee Clarawhatever gonna open for us this tour?"
     "Claracuzio and yes," JC replied.
     "Cool" Lance responded.
     "Claracuzio, that's Italian, AWESOME," Joey said.
     "Oh No, is she pretty?" Justin asked.
     "WAIT," Chris yelled," ding ding ding ding ding, I know the answer to this one."
     The guys all laugh.
Chris stood up and began to melodramatically recite," She has the most beautiful blue eyes, even if they are contact enhanced, the prettiest smile and long silky brown hair," he stops and sits back down," in other words yes."
     Justin and Joey laugh, while Lance smiles at JC with a knowing look.
     "Wait a sec," JC said," How do you know?"
     "Oh c'mon JC, you've only been talking about her and her attributes for the past week." Chris stated.
     "I mean c'mon man," Justin said," I haven't even met her yet and I already know that her eyes are a deep sapphire!"
     "When she has her contacts in." Joey added.
     All but JC laughed. "What are you trying to say?"
      "You like her man." Lance answered.
     "Of course I do, she's nice."
     "No not like that," Justin responded," You REALLY like her."
     "I don't know her well enough to really like her."
     "DUDE," Chris interjected," you have SO got a thang for her!"
     "Breaks over boys!" the choreographer yelled to them.
     As JC got up he stated," We'll see."

Chapter 9

later that week

"Oh my god, Chris is soooo FUNNY!" Anndee said into the phone.
     "What about Justin?" Shanna asked.
     "What about Lance?" Cori quipped.
     "What about your boyfriend Cori?" Anndee asked with a laugh, "and Shanna I thought you had a thing for Nick Carter or is it Drew Lachey again?"
     "We were just asking" they both said from ends of the phone.
     "Ok, Justin and Lance are both really nice."
     "Well that's detailed for ya." Cori responded.
     "Besides Lance is 3 years older than you Cori."
     " And I should have romantic thoughts about a younger man." Shanna stated.
     "What do you mean Justin is older then you!"
     "I keep forgetting that were not the same age." Shanna said.
     " I hit legal way before you did sweetie!" Anndee stated.
     "What about Joey?" Cori asked changing the subject, she was younger than both of them. "Joey is the biggest flirt," Anndee answered," JC makes fun of him all the time!"
     "103" the other two stated.
     "103 what?"
     "103 times you have mentioned JC in the last half hour or so," Cori answered. "You like him don't you?" Shanna asked.
     "Maybe" Anndee answered.

Chapter 10

1 month later

     "Great Job out there Anndee" Lance said as he hugged her off stage.
     "Wonderful" Justin said as he gave her a peck on the cheek.
     "AWESOME" Joey said as he engulfed her with a bear hug."
     She made her way down the conveyer belt of good tidings,      "GIRL, you were DA BOMB!" Chris yelled as he swung her around.
     "Never had any doubt," JC said as he gave a her a peck on the cheek and a hug.
     God this feels so good. They both thought.
     "Girl, your gonna give me a run for my money aren't ya!" Anndee turned to see who had spoken.
     "Hey Brit." JC said.
     "Hey Guys"
     "Are ya scared?" Anndee asked.
     "No," Britney answered," It gets lonely at the top, I would enjoy the company."
     "Good, I plan on coming over real soon."

later that night

     "Man did you feel that?" Chris asked.
     "Feel what?" Joey questioned.
     "Whatever that was when JC and Anndee sang "Eternity"!" Justin stated.
     "It's there everytime they sing it." Lance asserted.
     "Do you think that they feel it?" Joey asked.
     "Yes," Chris answered,"But I think it has more to with than just music for them."
     "Like what?" Justin and Joey asked.
     Lance answered, "Like love."
