Eye Contact
Author's Note: Words in [] are JC’s messages. Words in ** are Lance’s.
JC’s eyes wandered over to where Lance was sitting, frown in place, eyebrows furrowed, green eyes downcast, expression pinched with worry, lips in an unusually straight line.
JC smiled when Lance looked up and their eyes met. [Relax. Justin’s just being a prick. More so than usual,] he seemed to be saying.
Lance smiled back, and the tension in his actions dispersed somewhat. *I know.*
[Love you.]
*Love you more.*
[Not possible.]
Lance almost laughed, *Is so possible.*
[Is not.]
*Is so.*
[Not.]
*So.*
[Not.]
*Are we five or what?*
[Don’t even insult the five year olds.]
Lance did laugh then. *How come you always know how to make me feel better?*
[It’s a natural ability.]
*Oh, sure, Chasez. I believe that,* Lance smirked.
JC raised an eyebrow, [Then I’m guessing the fact that we’re soulmates helps.]
*You know, that might be it,* Lance’s smile softened.
JC grinned impishly, [It probably is, baby.]
“Aww, look at them!” Chris cooed at the couple from across the room, “They’re doing that goo-goo eye thing again! Isn’t it sweet?”
“No, I think it’s sickening,” Justin grumbled.
“J, quit being a diva,” Chris rolled his eyes. “I swear you can be such a pansy sometimes. You act more girlish than C.”
“I do not!” Justin insisted, his pout firmly in place.
Joey sighed and rolled his eyes. “Dear god, why me?”
Chris smiled and batted his eyelashes, “You know you love us.”
“You better pray I don’t stop, Kirkpatrick. Or your ass is the first I’ll go after.”
“Ouch. Way to love a guy!”
“You know it.”
Chris shrugged and grinned before turning back to watch the couple exchange glances. “You know, it’s like they’re actually talking to each other. It’s freaky man.”
Lance laughed then, and even Justin looked up in amusement. “They haven’t said a word to each other, I swear. But it’s like they’re sharing some kind of private moment or joke or something.”
Intrigued, the three men sat on the floor and watched the couple’s exchange.
*Ooh, look, the guys are interested in what we’re saying.*
JC laughed, [Dude, I’m not even surprised. Why don’t we give them a little something to talk about?]
Lance grinned, *Like what?*
JC grinned back and wiggled his eyebrows, [Well, we can come up with a way to pay them back for all the pranks they’ve pulled without even talking… imagine that!]
*Hey! That sounds like a great idea!*
[Of course,] JC smirked. [I thought of it.]
Lance rolled his eyes, before standing and linking his arms with JC, who was already standing. *Whatever.*
JC just grinned and shrugged as they strolled out of the room, [You know I’m right.]
Lance laughed, *Keep that ego in check, Mr. Chasez, before I have to do it for you.*
JC grinned cheekily, [That sounds like fun.]
*Only ‘cause you’re kinky.*
Justin, Joey and Chris exchanged puzzled glances once more as the couple traded amused smiles before disappearing out of sight.
JC held Lance’s hand a little tighter in his as he smiled at his blonde lover, pulling him close. “How was dinner?”
“Perfect,” Lance whispered, his eyes dancing. They had had a romantic dinner at one of JC’s favourite restaurants, and were now sitting on the beach, by the water’s edge, content in each other’s arms.
JC smiled, “Good.”
They were silent for a second, then, before Lance spoke up quietly, “Don’t you find it strange, Josh?” Lance continued hurriedly at JC’s questioning look, “The way we can speak without words… you know, our eye thing. Don’t you ever wonder why we can do it?”
JC shrugged, “No, I don’t really think about it. It… it’s like, it’s just there. It’s right. Like… like magic.”
Lance smiled, “Aren’t you a little old to believe in magic, Josh?”
JC smiled back and leaned in for a soft kiss, “You’re never too old to believe in magic… ‘specially not when you’re in love.”
(The next day at rehearsals, during their water break…)
[I’ve got a surprise for you at my house, baby.]
*You do? What is it?*
[If I told you, it would kinda sorta probably defeat the whole purpose, wouldn’t it now?] JC grinned wider.
*Tease.*
[You know it.]
*Josh! Just a little hint?* Lance made his best puppy dog look. *Please?*
[Nuh uh. All I’m saying is that you’ll like it.]
Lance sighed in defeat. *You’d better hope I do.*
[If you don’t… I’ll make it up to you. Later. Tonight.]
Lance grinned, *I’ve already decided not to like it. You might as well tell me what it is.*
[Nice try, my green-eyed lover. But no. And either way I’ll make it up to you tonight. Once for teasing you, and maybe twice if you don’t like it.]
Lance smiled coyly, *I’ll probably say I won’t like it anyway, just so you have to make it up to me.*
[We’ll see about that,] JC laughed, [We’ll see about that.]
“I love to hear you say that you love me
With words so sweet
And I love the way with just one whisper
You tell me everything
And when you say those words
It’s the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard
But when your eyes say it
That’s when I know that it’s true
I feel it; I feel the love coming through
I know it; I know that you truly care for me
Cause it’s there to see
When your eyes say it
I love all the ways that you show me
You’ll never leave me
And the way your kisses; they always convince me
Your feelings run so deep
I love the things you say
And I love the love your touch conveys
But when your eyes say it
That’s when I know that it’s true
I feel it; I feel the love coming through
I know it; I know that you truly care for me
Cause it’s there to see
When your eyes tell me
I know they’re not telling lies
They tell me; all that you’re feeling inside
And it’s just so right
When your eyes say it
And your words they say take my breath away
So soft, never sounded so sweet
I love every word that they say to me
But when your eyes say it
That’s when I know that it’s true
I feel it; I feel the love coming through
I know it; I know that you truly care for me
Cause it’s there to see
When your eyes tell me
I know they’re not telling lies
They tell me; all that you’re feeling inside
And it’s just so right
But when your eyes say it
That’s when I know that it’s true
I feel it; I feel the love coming through
I know it; I know that you truly care for me
Cause it’s there to see
When your eyes tell me
I know they’re not telling lies
They tell me; all that you’re feeling inside
And it’s just so right… so right.”
JC looked up as he finished the song. He’d had a wonderful dinner with Lance, and now they were sitting on the old swing in the backyard of the house they both shared. He’d just sung a song he’d written for Lance, and he wanted desperately to know what the younger man thought.
“Josh… that was…” there were tears in his lover’s eyes, and that was all the answer JC needed.
“I… I’m glad you liked it,” he smiled, almost shyly.
“I loved it. I love you.” Lance pressed a gentle kiss on JC’s lips. “So very much.”
“It’s… it was an answer. To your question the other day. About why we can do the eye contact thing. Sort of. It’s why I don’t wonder. Because it feels so right. And… it’s just there. Some sort of higher power. It doesn’t need to be questioned. It just is.” JC blushed at himself, suddenly finding the grass very interesting.
Lance wrapped himself around JC, smiling. “You’re right. You’re so right.”
Green eyes met sparkling cerulean.
*Thank you.*
[Don’t thank me, baby. We’re soulmates. That’s just how it is.]
*I love you.*
[I love you too. Pause. Sooooo… do I have anything to make up for?]
*Nothing baby. Nothing in the world.*
[Then let’s start planning our revenge on the guys.]
*Sounds perfect to me.*
[As long as we’re in this together, baby, it is perfect.]
*Sap.*

Author’s Note: The song used was Britney Spears’ “When Your Eyes Say It” and was not, in any way, written by JC. Unless they’re having a private affair that no one knows about and JC decided to write songs under Britney’s name so she’d have a few really good ballads.
…
Nah… didn’t think so either.
