“Settle down, J,” Joey says. He settles himself on the couch, comfortably close to Justin, and Justin looks at him. “It's just a game.”

Chris and Lance are celebrating, loudly and obnoxiously, on the other side of Justin's pool room, shooting champagne and hollering. Justin knows it's just a game, but he's still pissed that he lost. That they lost.

He could blame Joey. But Justin took that last shot, and missed.

Joey slips an arm around Justin's shoulder. “Lance may have won the game,” he whispers, leaning in close. “But I bet Chris won't suck his dick tonight.”

Summary: Justin's just a kid, really.
Warnings: Boybands, RPF
Also: Unbeta'd.

It's moments like these that Joey remembers Justin's still a kid; the youngest, not even sixteen. It's January, though – almost Joey's birthday; almost Justin's, too – and they've finally gotten their first day off in weeks. It's snowing.

Chris, of course, is making snowballs, although Joey doesn't realize until one hits him square in the back. Joey turns and drops into a crouch to gather some snow of his own. Soon the other guys will notice, too.

For now, though, JC and Lance are sitting and talking. And Justin is grinning to himself, alone, on his back, making a snow angel.

the 2nd one is my favorite. i love where you chose to put the last line in the first paragraph. because it sounds sort of sudden as it's usually the sort of description people would put right at the beginning. i liked the way you described actions/movement too, simple but really clear.

Oh, nice. There's something so friendly and familiar about this pairing, and you've managed to get that across in two very different ways here -- but with an interesting theme of isolation. Lovely!

Awww!! Justin is such a sore loser. And still a kid. And I love these :)

The first is my fav. I bet Joey is right!

Aww, the first one is so typical Justin, but on the other hand, the second one! Eeee! Snow angels! *squishes baby justin*

It's such a rare pairing and reading these I can't understand why because the combination is just sweet!

very nice - the second one, especially, is crystal sharp.
