"Nick you ok," Aj asked pulling on his friends arm.
"Yeah," Nick shuttered.
"Brian's gonna be fine man," Aj said smiling.
"Bone, it's the exact same thing over again don't you see that?"
"Nick," Aj sat next to his friend. "It's not the same, Rok's doin' fine, doc just told us."
"Nick, are you ok," Lauren asked.
"Yes, I'm fine." Nick muttered standing up. He walked casually into Brian's room. He didn't care if it was allowed or not, he had to see his friend.
"Hey Rok," Nick took his friends hand.
"Hey Nick," Brian said weakly.
"How ya doin'?"
"Better, I hope."
"Me, too." They both chuckled.
"The doctors say it was just a mild one. Nick I have an idea." Brian finished out of breath.
"What?"
"I think we should sing..just one last time."
"What do you mean?"
"Backstreet's Back Alright," Brian said weakly before he fell back asleep. Nick smiled to himself. He had wanted to sing BSB again, years ago. Brian never showed any interest in it. Nick knew Aj wanted to be back on stage again. Howie had locked himself away after the death of Kevin and Nick knew they would never be the same, but at least they could try.
