Nick Carter moves to Nashville to take a break and just get away for awhile this is the story of what happens when he meets his neighbor who just happens to be single and she's a Backstreet Boys fan.
It was another hot summer day here in Nashville and even though my air is on the lowest and coldest setting it will go it's not helping at all. I go upstairs to my bedroom pull out a black bikini then change into it and go to my closet in the hall and grab a towel Mac looks up at me from the floor he gives me a wag with the look in his big brown eyes I couldn't say no he knew he wasn't allowed in the pool but today I would make an exception for him since it was so hot outside. "Want to go for a swim boy?" His tail wags faster and he barks I smile "come on boy." I walk to the back door and open it Mac runs outside just as I go to step outside I hear knocking at the front door I sigh and think to myself so close yet so far away. I put my towel down and walk through the house open the door and see Nick standing there "Hey Nick what's up?" He looks at me "I..... uh.... Hi.... I thought.... Um I wanted to see if you would like to go to lunch somewhere?" I look at him "I was just fixing to get in the pool you can join me and we could have lunch later?"

Nick's POV
She was in a black bikini that fit her just right and it was making me tongue tied I couldn't even form a simple sentence. She was showing off a lot of skin I really liked it I wanted to see her like this more often then I start thinking about something else and it turns into multiple things the first thing I wonder how soft her skin is and what it would feel like under my fingertips. Then I think about the things I want to do as my eyes run over her body and I notice she turns red under my gaze I wanted to touch her, I wanted to taste her skin and see what she would do as my lips traveled down her neck, I wanted to have her in my arms I wanted to touch all of her. I look up at her as she asks me a question and I realize that she just invited me over to swim and have lunch later I cough then run my hand through my hair "Sounds great I'd love to let me go change and I'll be back in a few minutes." She smiles "See you soon." I go back to my house and change I needed to get it together and control myself or something would end up happening between the two of us.
Mallory's POV
Nick and I get in the pool then we start playing around and splashing each other eventually he picks me up and throws me after we play we just swim for a while. Later on Nick and I are in the middle of the pool he grabs me by the waist and pulls me to him and I feel his fingers against my skin I look up at him and meet his eyes I wrap my arms around his neck and my fingers go to his hair. He starts leaning in I feel his breath against my face then just before our lips touch we are covered in water Nick steps back and looks at me "Thanks for inviting me over but I better head back home see you later Mal." Nick leaves and I go inside and get dressed then I sit down on my bed and run my hands through my hair Nick and I almost kissed that had to mean something. I get up and go to the living room and glance outside no sign of Nick anywhere I don't know if this messed something up between us or ow it would change things between us I just hope that it wasn't much. I sigh then go back in my room and go back to thinking about Nick.
Nick's POV
I walk in the house and change clothes then go to my living room and sit on the couch where Mallory slept the night she stayed during the storm. I start thinking about her and I examine my feelings about her I really liked her we had spent a lot of time together plus today I had almost kissed her I just wasn't sure if it meant something to me and if it meant something to her she wanted to kiss me I remember her hand on the back of my neck and her fingers in my hair. I haven't been her long only a few weeks I came here for a break I wasn't sure if I was ready for a relationship yet is that what I wanted? Did I want a relationship with her I was starting to think that I was but there was something else that I started thinking about, Was Mallory ready for a relationship did she want a relationship with me? There was a lot that came with being in a relationship with one of us I might like her and she might like me but I wasn't sure if she would be happy with me even though I know I would do whatever it took to make her happy I wouldn't know unless I tried.
