1. Howie loved the way his voice and Nick's would BLEND in the monitors.
2. Howie examined the STAIN on his white carpet, then called his cleaning service.
3. Howie and Nick loved to eat small, intimate meals at the ISLAND in Nick's kitchen.
4. When Nick started complaining about being humgry, Howie offered him an APPLE to hold him until lunch.
5. At AJ's yell, Howie sighed, put down his PAPER, and headed toward the living room.
6. Howie loved to RELAX at home with Nick or one of the other guys to keep him company.
7. One fall, during a break, Nick drove Howie north, and the spent the weekend driving and watching the LEAVES turn colors.
8. The fans' response when Howie, Nick, AJ, Kevin, and Brian took the stage was PROOF that Backstreet was neither dead nor washed up.
9. Howie was tired of the press treating him as the UGLY Backstreet Boy.
10. Howie knew that many fans thought he was a closet intellectual, but the last BOOK he had actually read was a paperback murder mystery, whose name he couldn't tell you if his life had depended on it.
11. Howie didn't BROOD often, but occasionally he resented not being one of the "stars" of the group.
12. Howie could never understand how AJ could publicly wear things like MESH shirts.
13. Howie thought he had never felt lips as SOFT as AJ's.
14. At Howie's request, Nick placed their new acquisition on the one SHELF that Christopher couldn't reach by jumping.
15. One thing Howie missed about the individual busses was having some time ALONE to destress.
16. If there was one thing Howie knew, it was how little it would take for him to FALL in love with AJ.
17. Both of the rings that Howie and AJ exchanged were simple gold bands fahioned into a lover's KNOT.
18. Just once, Howie wished, he could go somewhere or do something without having to play to the CROWD that inveitably gathered.
19. It wasn't that Howie was in DENIAL; it was more that he was afraid admitting he was in love with AJ would screw up the group and everything they had worked for.
20. AJ looked at Howie calmly, and noted "D, that TRAIN left the station long ago."
21. Although Howie didn't much believe in wearing FUR, one of the first gifts he gave his mother was the mink stole she had always wanted.
22. Howie's kitchen was a sleek affair, with lots of CHROME and glass surfaces.
23. The guys often took advantage of the fact that Howie had a big HEART where they were concerned.
24. It was Howie's INTENTION to stay closeted for as long as Backstreet lasted.
25. Howie knew that Nick would PUSH himself to the limit when rehearsing, regardless of what his body was telling him.
26. Howie was afraid to LOOK directly into AJ's eyes; if the answer was rejection, he was afraid it would destroy him.
27. Unlike the others, Howie had watched his WEIGHT during the hiatus, so he had little problem getting back into shape for the "Never Gone" tour.
28. Howie and Kevin regarded the band as caught in the SPIDER-like web of improprieties Lou had woven.
29. Even though Howie was expecting AJ, he threw a ROBE on before answering the door.
30. Given the sudden downpour, Howie was glad he had stored a small UMBRELLA in his car.
31. Howie knew his brother was home by the papers strewn over every flat SURFACE in his living room.
32. Many of the fanfic writers felt that IDEA for putting the band together was originally Howie's.
33. The others knew that under the sweet demeanor, Howie was actually as hard as a DIAMOND.
34. Howie told himself that he must have been BLIND to not notice exactly how much of a man Nick had grown into.
35. Howie sat on the beach, and watched the tide FLOW out.
36. Howie thought he would scream if they rehearsed that particular MOVEMENT one more time.
37. After everything that went wrong at rehearsal, Howie and AJ wondered what MORE could happen that day.
38. Howie hoped the HONEY he was stirring into his tea would soothe his throat.
39. One thing Howie loved about both Florida and California was the consistent niceness of the WEATHER.
40. Howie wished that, just once, the costume designer would put him in BLUE instead of red, orange, or yellow.
41. Howie expected the profits from his newest resort hotel to DOUBLE during the holiday season.
42. Now that Howie's hair was short, he would never have to let the stylist BRAID it again.
43. One glance at Nick, and Howie knew he had lost the THREAD of the conversation.
44. Howie and Kevin spent hours considering which ANGLES they wanted their suit to come at Lou from.
45. Now that the tour was over, Howie and Nick could take a few weeks to DAYDREAM and make plans.
46. After the NIGHTMARE that working with Lou, then Jive, had been, Howie felt that the Never Gone tour was pretty much a piece of cake.
47. Howie had started the Dorough Lupus Foundation to HONOR his sister's memory.
48. Howie wanted a vacation somewhere with PALM trees, pink sand, and drinks with little paper umbrellas.
49. Howie knew that if he didn't SCREEN his calls, one day he would say the exact wrong thing to the exact wrong person...like his mother, or a fan.
50. Curled in the WARMTH of AJ's embrace, Howie knew what home meant to him.
