I’m trying hard not to repeat authors here, but there aren’t that many Choey authors out there, so you will see some repeats after all.

Characters: Chris, Joey, Lance.
Prompt: 17. Jealousy
Rating: PG
Length: Long (4 parts)
Brief summary: Confession time. This is actually a Lance/Joey friendship story, that happens to revolve around the fact that Chris and Joey are in a relationship. But that doesn’t mean it’s not a Choey story, and a beautiful one at that. Lance and Joey have an accident and, while waiting for rescue, start to solve the breach between them since Joey told Lance he was with Chris. The way [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] manages to convey Lance’s feelings, that go from actual jealousy from missing his best friend, to his deep convictions, is amazing.
Lance settled into his seat and smiled out the airplane window. This trip had been such a great idea-- both for business and personal reasons. He and Joey had taken off for a week to British Columbia, scouting locations for A Happy Place. Since Joey and Chris had become a couple, Lance hadn’t spent much time with his best friend. He knew that the distance was his fault but sometimes he still felt a left out.
The past week had allowed them both time to catch up with everything going on in their busy lives. It was easier to stay connected when they were on tour but during down time, even the closest of friends could lose touch. Lately, Joey seemed to spend most of his spare time with Chris and Brianna. Not that Lance could blame him, he’d never seen Joey so happy in the seven years they had been friends.
Lance couldn’t help the little smile that turned the corners of his mouth when he thought of Joey happy. Joey was his best friend and he loved him more than his own family sometimes.

Title: Twelve Days
Author: Scooter (Tina)
Characters: Chris, Joey, Lance, JC, Justin
Prompt: 42. Holiday
Rating: G.
Length: Medium.
Brief summary: Christmas fic. A bit of a cliché, Chris is feeling lonely and left out when he heads to JC and Justin’s Christmas party, after the band’s separation, when he starts receiving anonymous gifts inspired in the “Twelve Days of Christmas” song. But not only it is sweet –a common theme in my recs, I’m realizing that now- there’s actual thought behind each gift, and a reason why Joey is hinting at his feelings like that, which is more than some similar fics in other fandoms manage. Also, I’m not exactly a fan of the Justin/JC pair, and this fic made me go “AW!! How cute that they’re together!” and that’s quite the achievement.
The lid folded back to reveal a thick layer of bubble wrap. It was the good stuff, too, with the economy sized bubbles, not the tiny ones that barely made any noise! Like a three-year-old more interested in the packaging rather than the toy inside, Chris spent a good ten minutes popping bubbles and terrorizing the poor dog until the oven timer went off again and he had to retrieve his cookies. The pug emerged from her hiding place beneath the microwave cart, relieved that the noise had stopped and returned to her inspection of the box.
Cookies transferred safely to cooling racks on the table and filling the air with mouth-watering aromas, he finally turned his attention back to the package. Beneath the bubble wrap was a card, his name scrawled across the envelope in unfamiliar handwriting.
He read the message written across the inside of the card. ‘I’m starting this a few days early, before Christmas than on Christmas Day itself. There’s a reason for that, which you’ll discover later. So, here you’ll find gift one of twelve. I hope it brings a smile to your face. Those have probably been rare as of late. Merry Christmas. Your “Secret Santa”.”
Curiosity peaked, Chris dug into the box and pulled out…a tree? Well, duh! he thought. Twelve days of Christmas. Partridge in a pear tree and all that. “Please tell me there’s not a live bird in here somewhere!” he muttered, carefully unwinding layers of tissue paper from the delicate foliage..
