"Hi Joe."
"Hi...uh,_." She's calling me.
"So I asked my mom about the tour thing. She said its perfectly fine that I go on a 3-4 month trip with 5 people I don't know." Her voice was caked with sarcasm.
"Well, if you want to get technical its really 2."
"No, its 5."
"You say that and you're talking to one of them on the phone."
"...okay...4..." I laughed. Its funny how we can have a normal conversation over the phone.
"Okay, well since you're coming I'll give you the details. We've got a month to prepare. So we'll be touring in June, July and August. Then we have little venues and free shows in the beginning of September. Think you can hang with us that long?"
"Please, I live with the Energizer Bunny. i think I can deal."
"Sweet," I chuckled," I'll let Nick and Kev know you're on board." We talked a little bit longer then disconnected. I was in the kitchen looking in the opposite direction of the door. I turned around to call my brother's but...they were already there.
"STALKERS!" They chuckled.
"Who was that?" Kevin asked.
"_"
"What did she want?"
"My body," I smirked," But I told her no."
"Yea right," Nick scoffed," If that ws why she called you wouldn't say no." I laughed, "I will not confirm or deny that. But Seriously, she said she can go on tour with us."
"Awesome." they said simultaneously.
"so what did you guys really want?"
"Not much...just got a photo shoot in an hour," Kevin said.
"What?! Why didn't you say that earlier?1"
"It's fun watching you squirm," Nick chuckled.

Pt.14 Breaking News
"I called Bex, she said she's at _'s.We can kill two birds with one stone," Nick said.
"You called her?" I asked. Nick blushed. Kevin shook his head,"No,I called her. Before I could get a word in, he snatched the phone away." I looked at nick knowingly.
"And to think you make fun of me."
"Oh yea?"Nick retorted,his face still as red as a cherry,"At least I don't come up with stupid plans to get girls I like." The n he smirked," I just get them."
"Why you little--" I lunged for him but Kevin held me back.
"Guys!Stop!Seriously, you're not even fighting over the same girl!" That was true. I straightened up my collar.
"One of these days, my plan will work. I"m driving." I grabbed my keys and went out to my car.
"Joe?You coming or not?"Kevin asked. We were in front of _'s house. I was clutching the steering wheel so my brothers couldn't see my shaking hands.Why is it that every time I come to this girl's house I get nervous?! Maybe its because she hates me.Or she's secretly in love with me and DOESN'T WANT TO ADMIT IT! Yea...let's go with that.
I pried my hands from the steering wheel and managed to get out of the car.Kevin rang the doorbell as I stepped onto the porch. _ opened the door. She saw us and sighed heavily.
"Why is it every time I opn this door one of you is on the other side?" She looked straight at me when she said 'you.' I looked down at my feet blushing.
"Bex is here, right?"Nick asked. _ looked at him oddly.
"...yea..."
"Well...can we come in?" Kevin asked,"We want to talk to the both of you." _'s eyes skitted between us nervously.
"Fine..." she huffed. Nick almost bowled her over trying to get in. He soooo likes Bex Kevin chuckled. __led us into the living room. She had a nice house. It was decorated in black and different shades of tan.
"Hey Bex,"Nick beamed. Bex looked up from the magazine she'd been flipping through.
"Hey Nick,"she said,"Oh, and Joe and Kevin." __ plopped down next to Bex.
"So what do I owe you for this visit?"
"Well..."Kevin says, then he elbows me,"Joe you tell them."
"Ow! What?! No way! It was Nick's idea." Aw...crap!Bad move Nick smirked at me.
"You're right Joe. It was my idea. We want you two to go on tour with us." _ stared at him in disbelief and Bex's mouth dropped open. _ burst out laughing.
"This is a joke, right? Well, you got your laugh. Now bye-bye."
"No,seriously," I said,"We're touring with...Taylor Swift...and Miley Cyrus and they wanted us to invite two fa..friends to share their bus with."
"Are you serious?!!"Bex gasped. She turned to _.
"Ohmigosh! We have to go! I mean seriously, we'll get to go all over the U.S!Its gonna be so much fun!!"
"She's got the right idea."Kevin smiled._ looked unsure.
"I...don't know.I"ll have to ask my...mom.."
"Oh..."Bex dropped _'s hands,"I forgot about your mom. Its gonna be hard to reach her, huh?"
"Yea,"_ nodded,"Give me a week or two and I'll let you know."
"And just how are you going to do that?" I asked. I took my phone out of my pocket and tossed it in the air.
"D@mn...fine!You win,okay?" She threw her phone,not tossed,threw,at me and I tossed her mine.
"Yuo know, its ridiculous how long that took," I said.
"Yea well...can it,Rockstar. Its not like I did it willingly."
"Hey what about--"
"Belle," we said at the same time. _ put her hands over her eyes and sank into the couch.
"I don't think I'll be able to go..."she moaned.She actually sounded like she wannted to go now. Bex patted her knee reassuringly.
"Mom's not going,"Kevin whispered to me.So...He nudged me harder.
"Mom's. Not. Going."
"What does that--"
"Frankie'll be with her. Here. At home." Oh!
"wait!" I said loudly. _ uncovered her eyes.
"Our mom's staying here with Frankie. I don't think she'd have a problem watching Belle." _ jumped up.
"Seriously? Ohmigosh, that's be great!" She hugged me tightly.Did you hear me?She hugged me. I was in shock that she was hugging me, so I didnt hug back. I stepped out of the hhug nervously and somehow ended up on the floor. I jumped up quickly and brushed myself off. I was pretty sure my face was red.
"Well Toma-Joe,"Nick said.Yup, my face is red
"If you're done acting like an idiot,"he continued," We can go home." I cleared my throat,"Uh,yea. Right." I think I ran out of the house. I'm not really sure, I just know Kevin and Nick took forever to get back in the car.
"Dude, what happened in there?" Kevin asked when he finally got in the car.
"Sh-She hugged me."
"Way to stat the obvious,"Nick said from the backseat. I backed out of the driveway and started for home.
"No, you don't understand..."
"Obviously not,"Nick said,"You've hugged before."
"Exactly! I've hugged her. She's never hugged me. I've always had to initiate contact...maybe she just let her guard down. Which would mean it meant nothing...Or! Or, she trusts me enough to let her guard down. I don't know...I'm confused...What does it mean?!"
"It means you're a psychotic lunatic." I gave Nick a confused look in the rearview mirror.Oh crap!Did I say all that outloud?!
"Well...Joe..."Kevin said slowly,"Its nice to finally know what you're thinking." I pulled into our driveway.
"How much did you hear?" I asked carefully.
"How much did we..what?"
"Joe, we've been in the car the whole time. Unlike you, we actually listen," Nick said.I blushed,"Never mind..." I quickly got out of the car and ran into the house.
"Joe's going paranoid"I heard Kevin say.
"Seriously,"Nick replied.
__ called me 3 days later.
"You called her?" I asked. Nick blushed. Kevin shook his head,"No,I called her. Before I could get a word in, he snatched the phone away." I looked at nick knowingly.
"And to think you make fun of me."
"Oh yea?"Nick retorted,his face still as red as a cherry,"At least I don't come up with stupid plans to get girls I like." The n he smirked," I just get them."
"Why you little--" I lunged for him but Kevin held me back.

__ called me 3 days later.
Pt.13 You're Joking, Right?
Its about a year later since the concert and almost kiss._ and my relationship is just like it was back then.Microscopic.We keep going on theses friendly...group dates, then she ignores me and so on and so forth. Every time I would make a move she would acton it then pull away. I DONT GET THIS GIRL! My brothers don't understand why I don't give up. Then again, neither do I. Maybe its because she's so mysterious.Or maybe its because she knows we have this connection but she doesnt want to act on it and she knows I know she knows I know and...wait..what?I've gone and confused myself.
"Joe!"Nick appeared upside-down in my doorway.
"When did you learn to walk on walls?"I asked.Nick rolled his eyes,"Why don't you turn yourself right side up and ask me that again." Oh, right...I kinda forgot I was on my bed upside down.I sat up quickly and all the blood came rushing back to me.
"Oh...bad idea," I groaned.Nick chuckled.
"Dad's got something to tell us...Toma-Joe."
"Ha ha...very funny." I followed Nick down the stairs and to the living room.
"Where's Kevin?"I asked.
"With Danielle,"Mom answered,"We told him the new earlier." Nick and I sat down across from our parents.
"We're headlining a new tour,"Dad smiled.
"Awesome!"Nick and I said.
"You'll be touring with Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus,"Mom added.
"What?!" Nick and I exclaimed.We looked at each other then back at our parents.
"Isn't it exciting!"Mom beamed.
"You're joking,right?" I said.
"Mom, Dad there's already enough rumors about Miley and me. This won't help the cause,"Nick said.
"Why can't we tour with Forever the Sickest Kids or...All Time Low?"
"Boys,"Dad said gruffly,"That's enough.We won't speak of it again for a month." They stood up to leave. Dad turned back to us before he exited.
"Miley and Taylor would like you to invite a fan, one for both of you. They'll share a bus with them." Then he left so the news could sink in.
"We should invite _ and Bex,"Nick said suddenly.
"You're joking,right? I can barely spend an hour with _ let alone 3 or 4 months!"
"Just a thought," Nick shrugged,"They are our friends."
"Oh please," I scoffed,"Don't act like you're not crushing on Bex." Nick blushed,"Sh--She's a really nice girl. That's it. God, Joe, why do you have to make everything wierd?" He stormed out.Because things never go my way, but they always seem to fall in your lap. Maybe this tour will bring me and _ together. Its a work in progress...
"Joe!"Nick appeared upside-down in my doorway.
"When did you learn to walk on walls?"I asked.Nick rolled his eyes,"Why don't you turn yourself right side up and ask me that again." Oh, right...I kinda forgot I was on my bed upside down.I sat up quickly and all the blood came rushing back to me.

Pt.10 Honor Second Society Date Concert
"I don't want to go.One of you should take her," I said as I adjusted my tie.I had on a white long sleeve,a red tie, a black vest and black skinny jeans.
"No way dude,"Kevin said,"You're the one that's in love with her."
"i am not!" I rolled up my sleeves.
"Just keep saying that,"Nick said,"Hey Kev, we should go."
"Where're you going?!"
"Bowling with Demi and Selena."They set me up. I bet they planned this from the beginning. I glared at them and grabbed my keys.
"Who cares"I said,"I'm better off going to the concert." I heard them laugh as I went down the stairs.As I drove to _'s, the paranoia sunk in, just like it had on our first date.What if she slams the door in my face.Ohmigosh!What if she thinks I planned this!She's gonna hate me even more than she does now...I parked in her driveway and built up the courage to walk to the door.My hand shook like crazy as I rang the doorbell.Moments later, she opened the door.
"oh...its you,"she said sounding disappointed,"What're you doing here?"
"I...uh..I'm here to...take you to the concert," I said quietly.She looked at me wide-eyed.
"You're joking right?"I shook my head then looked down.
"No...Bex said she couldn't go....so she asked you." She rolled her eyes and mumbled something I couldnt hear.
"Hold on," _ sighed,"Let me get my bag." She closed the door.I walked slowly to my car. She came out and I opened the door for her then got in myself. I sighed then drove to where the concert was being held.
"I figured we'd get ther early so you can meet the band,"I said trying to break the silence.She didn't say anything. I sighed.This is gonna be a long night...
I parked at the backstage exit._ followed me inside.I saw Mike first.
"Michael!" I smiled.
"Joe!," he beamed," You made it!"
"Yup.Hey Mike, this is _.She's a friend of Bex." He shook her hand.
"Nice ti meet you _.The rest of the guys are up ahead." We followed him to the hallway where the dressing rooms are.
"Joe!" Andy exclaimed,"You're here!"
"Yea,I am. This is _.Bex's friend." _ waved shyly. I went down the line introducing everyone.
"Is she the---"
"Shut up,Alex,"I growled.
"Am I the what?" _ asked.
"Nothing!" I put on a black messenger hat and my red Ray Bans.
"We should get to our seats. It gets crowded pretty quickly."
"See you afterwards,"Jay said.
"Am I what?" _ repeated.
"Don't worry about it." Just as we claimed our spots, the arena filled in.
"I've never been front row before,"_ whispered.
"Well then,prepare for the experience of a lifetime.You do know the Honor Roll right?"
"The what?" I smiled,"This should be fun."
"Jo--"
"Shh! Don't call me that," I whispered,"Call me Adam."
"Why?" I looked at her in disbelief.
"You do know who I am right? And where we are."
"Yea but whats that got to do with anytihing?" I leaned in close to her, so I could whisper in her ear.
"well, if the thousands of girls around us find out I'm Joe Jonas we'll get mobbed." I leaned back and looked into her eyes.
"Unless you want to.Get mobbed I mean."
"Um...no thanks...Adam" I smiled and the lights went out. Honor Society started their set off with Full Moon Crazy.
"Hey everybody,I'm Michael Bruno,"Mike said when the song was over,"Are you guys ready to party?!Alex! Drop that beat!" They played a lot of their hits like Dont Close The Book and Two Rebels. Every now and then I would look at _ and see a big smile on her face.It made me happy seeing her happy.
"Okay,for this final song, we want a couple people from the audience to help us,"Andy said,"How bout you two." He pointed to _ and I.
"What?! No way!" _ said quietly.I grabbed her hand.
"Come on,it'll be fun." Security led us onto the stage.The arena went completely dark then a spot came on Mike.
"You were always the girl,"he sang. The crowd went crazy! They continued playing See U In The Dark. I watched as everyone did the Honor Roll with us. I laughed when _ stumbled over a step.All in all the show was amazing.__and I went backstage.
"You planned that!" she screamed. I laughed,"always be prepared to dance when Honor Society is in town."
"aint that the truth," Alex chuckled.
"That was embarassing,"__ mumbled. I laughed again.
"Well...I should get you home," I said.
"we'll see you around,Joe," Mike called after us.
I drove _ home and just like the first date, she lingered in the car.We sat in her driveway just talking.I'm not completely sure how it happened,but we both started leaning in towards each other like we were gonna kiss.Our lips were inches away...when she turned her head and leaned back.The little tease!
"Um...bye Joe,"she blushed,"Thanks for...this."She all but jumped out the car and ran inside.
"Ugh!!!"I groaned,"Why is this so hard?!"We almost kissed.Why did she stop?What's going on in her head?I want to know. I need to know!
"No way dude,"Kevin said,"You're the one that's in love with her."
"i am not!" I rolled up my sleeves.
"Just keep saying that,"Nick said,"Hey Kev, we should go."

Pt.10 Coming To You LIVE!
Andrew said they were going to do a live chat and wanted us to be their special guests.
"Sounds fun,"Kevin had said. I agreed, thinking it might get my mind off of Bex and _.
"Okay,"Jason said,"In 3,2,1." Mike, Andy, and Jay were sitting around a laptop in the living room. They sent out a tweet half an hour earlier and 2000 people were already there.
"Hey guys," they said,"We're Honor Society."
"Wait...hold on guys,"Jay said,"That sounded weak. Are we missing someone?" They looked around.
"Alex," they said at the same time.
"What?" he said coming out of the kitchen.
"Oh! you already started. My bad." It was hard for me and my brothers to hold in our laughs. What these guys were doing was pure comedy.
"What are you eating?" Mike asked.
"Lasagna."
"Where did you...that's why you kicked me out of the kitchen?" Andy exclaimed. Alex shrugged,"Secret recipe. I can't have you blabbing them to the world."
"Excuse us a minute," Jay said. He,Mike and Andy got up and went into the kitchen.
"well this is nice,"Alex chuckled,"I'm just sitting here alone while the world watches me stuff my face." The other 3 came back moments later with platefuls of lasagna.
"And we're back," Andy said.
"So you all know about our concert tomorrow," Mike said,"We were out hanging with some of you earlier and we had some special friends with us. We've got some guests that...should be here soon."
"Here they are now." We got up and sat around Honor Society.
"Hey guys," Kevin said.
"Whoa," I said,"Did you hear that?"
"What?" Jay asked.
"All the virtual screams." We laughed.
"Its the Jonas Brothers!" Alex exclaimed,"Hey, we've uh, got some lasagna in the kitchen."
"Sweet!" Kevin jumped up.
"Bring me back a plate!" I shouted.
"Hi to Emily, Rachael, Chelsi...um,"Andy said. Jay leaned into the screen.
"Karissa, Melodie and Carly," he said. Kevin came back with the lasagna.
"And everbody else,"Mike laughed,"Let's get some questions. JB you guys answer too."
"This is amazing," I said over a mouthful of lasagna. Everyone looked at me.
"What? I can't compliment the food?"
"Movin on," andy chuckled,"First question: What's your favorite dance?"
"I'm just gonna flat out say the Gayne Wetsky," alex said.
"Alex, why don't you demonstrate,"Mike joked. ALex stood up and did this ridiculous dance. The rest of the band chanted 'Gayne Wetsky' as he danced. That's pretty much what we did the whole time. They sang some songs; we sang some songs. We answered questions and joked a lot. Then...a question came for me.
"Joe, this one's for you," Mike said.
"hit me."
"Since you've broken up with Camilla---"
"Next question," I said slightly tensing. They laughed. i wasn't joking though.
"since the break up, have you set your eyes on anyone else?"
"Next question," i repeated.
"Come on, Joe," Nick pushed,"Your fan base wants to know."
"Uh...I plead the fifth.
"Joe, come on, its a yes or no question. And maybe counts as yes, "Kevin said.
"Fine..."I said giving in,"Yes I have but she doesn't really like me back...so its a lost cause." I glanced at the screen. The following massages popped up:
Who is it?
Is she famous?
How can she not like you?
She's an idiot.
"Whoa!Whoa!Whoa! Calm yourselves,"I said. I got up and sat closer to the screen.
"I'm not going to tell you who it is. But I can tell you she's not famous and I want to respect her privacy."
"If she was famous he still wouldn't tell you," Nick added.
"Thanks for that...And she's not an idiot. I'm the idiot...shut up,Nick," I quickly added. he chuckled.
"Am I in love with her?"I luaghed as I read the comment,"Please,I barely know the girl."
"There's always the soul mate principal,"Jay mumbled.
"You do talk about her...a lot," Kevin said. I turned toward them.
"What is this? Discuss Joe's love life day?And I do not!"
"Well...maybe not outloud..."
"You snoops! You went through my stuff again!" I turned back to the screen.
"Excuse me while I kill my brothers." I got up and went after them. I chased them all through the hotel room.
"Aw, Joe's in love,"Andy said.
"I am not!"
"Sorry, I'm just reading comments."
*Well this is jsut great. Now the whole world knows i'm crushing on someone. i'm not gonna get off easy on this one...This is more embarassing than when I fell on the AMAs.
"Sounds fun,"Kevin had said. I agreed, thinking it might get my mind off of Bex and _.
"Okay,"Jason said,"In 3,2,1." Mike, Andy, and Jay were sitting around a laptop in the living room. They sent out a tweet half an hour earlier and 2000 people were already there.
"Hey guys," they said,"We're Honor Society."
"Wait...hold on guys,"Jay said,"That sounded weak. Are we missing someone?" They looked around.
"Alex," they said at the same time.
"What?" he said coming out of the kitchen.
"Oh! you already started. My bad." It was hard for me and my brothers to hold in our laughs. What these guys were doing was pure comedy.
"What are you eating?" Mike asked.
"Lasagna."
"Where did you...that's why you kicked me out of the kitchen?" Andy exclaimed. Alex shrugged,"Secret recipe. I can't have you blabbing them to the world."
"Excuse us a minute," Jay said. He,Mike and Andy got up and went into the kitchen.
"well this is nice,"Alex chuckled,"I'm just sitting here alone while the world watches me stuff my face." The other 3 came back moments later with platefuls of lasagna.
"And we're back," Andy said.
"So you all know about our concert tomorrow," Mike said,"We were out hanging with some of you earlier and we had some special friends with us. We've got some guests that...should be here soon."
"Here they are now." We got up and sat around Honor Society.
"Hey guys," Kevin said.
"Whoa," I said,"Did you hear that?"
"What?" Jay asked.
"All the virtual screams." We laughed.
"Its the Jonas Brothers!" Alex exclaimed,"Hey, we've uh, got some lasagna in the kitchen."
"Sweet!" Kevin jumped up.
"Bring me back a plate!" I shouted.
"Hi to Emily, Rachael, Chelsi...um,"Andy said. Jay leaned into the screen.
"Karissa, Melodie and Carly," he said. Kevin came back with the lasagna.
"And everbody else,"Mike laughed,"Let's get some questions. JB you guys answer too."
"This is amazing," I said over a mouthful of lasagna. Everyone looked at me.
"What? I can't compliment the food?"
"Movin on," andy chuckled,"First question: What's your favorite dance?"
"I'm just gonna flat out say the Gayne Wetsky," alex said.
"Alex, why don't you demonstrate,"Mike joked. ALex stood up and did this ridiculous dance. The rest of the band chanted 'Gayne Wetsky' as he danced. That's pretty much what we did the whole time.

Pt. 9 Honor First Society Date?
"Hey Bex," I smiled,"Glad you could come."
"No problem," she smiled as she walked inside.
"Nick and Kevin should be down soon." I led her into the living room and we took a seat on the love seat as we waited for my brohters.
"Thanks again for inviting me,"Bex said.
"Sure," I said.
"But I want to get one thing straight,"she said. Okay?
"No offense to you,Joe," she continued,"But I'm a Nick fan." I rolled my eyes and stood up.
"Of course..." I mumbled,"More than half of the female population likes Nick." I walked over to the stairs.
"Kevin!Nick! Let's go!" I called up. Minutes later, they came down the stairs.
"I'm driving," Nick smiled.
"I call shotgun!" I said,"Ready Bex?" She stood up and nodded. She followed Nick outside to his Mustang.
"This is a lost cause," I mumbled. kevin heard me.
"What is?" I looked back at him.
"she's a Nick fan," I sighed. Kevin chuckled and walked outside. I shuffled behind him closing the door behind me.I sat up front with Nick and Kevin gets in the back with Bex.Is someone out to get me? Is there a reason my plans keep backfiring? We arrived at Honor Society's hotel. We got out of the car and went up to their room. Mike Bruno opened the door.
"Hey guys," he smiled,"Come on in." We walked inside ans I noticed Mike eyeing Bex.
"Oh, this is our friend Bex," I said,"Its cool that she's hanging with us right?"
"Sure, come on. I'll introduce you to the rest of the band." Andrew Lee and Jason Rosen were in the living room.
"Where's Alex?"Mike asked.
"In the kitchen,"Andrew answered,"He's making something top secret. He kicked his sous chef out, so I'm currently looking for new employment." Mike laughed,"I"ll get him." Moments later, Alexander Noyes came around the corner with Mike.
"Alex this is Bex.She's a friend of the JBs."
"Hey! nice to meet ya," he smiled. Nick sat down between Andrew and Jason.
"So what's the plan today?" Kevin asked.
"Same plan we had during the Full Moon Crazy Tour,"Jason said.
"Hang with the fans," Honor Society said together.
"Oh Joe,"Andrew said,"Here's your backstage passes. As per your request." He tossed them and I caught them.
"Um...Joe...can I talk to you?"Bex said quietly.
"Uh, yea. Sure.Let's go in the kitchen." We started for the kitchen.
"Don't look in the oven!" Alex yelled.
"Okay, I will," I joked.
"About the concert," she said once she was sure no one could hear.
"Yea?"
"I can't go, so _'s gonna go in my place," she said quickly.
"You can't...__'s gonna..." I said trying to understand what she was saying. My eyes got wide when I figured out what she was saying.
"What?! She's what?!" I yelled. I saw 6 heads appear around the corner.
"I can't go...so...___offered to go. Okay she didn't so much as offer as i did bribe her."
"You're joking, right? This is some sick, cruel joke!"
"Well, on the bright side, she doesn't know you're coming."
"What?! That makes it worse!" I turned away from Bex. This just kept getting worse and worse. I'm supposed to be making _ jealous. But I can't do that if she's the one I'm going with!
"Joe...are you mad?"
"No," said through clenched teeth,"I'm frustrated."
You could always take a walk,"Nick suggested. I looked up and glared at him.
"Not helping eavesdropper,"I said. The six of them came fully into view.
"Besides Nick,"Kevin said,"We're not at home. I won't have the same effect."
"What does that mean?" Alex asked.
"Well, when he and Camilla broke up he went on a walk and---"
"Shut up, Kevin!"
"Anyways,"Nick continued,"He met this gi--"
"Shut up! Shut up! Lalalalalalala!" I put my fingers in my ears and walked out of the kitchen. I was pretty sure Nick and Kevin were telling them everything, well...except for 'The Plan.' Ten minutes later, Bex came put of the kitchen.
"That explains why you don't want to go with her," she said.
"I don't want to talk about it," I pouted. Mike came in the living room.
"Hey, you ready We've got an hour to get to our first location."
We went with the guys of Honor Society to meet thier fans. They were shocked JB was with them. We hung with the fans at Pinkberry, the local mall and outside a museum. Later, we took Bex home and rejoined the guys at their hotel room. We had one more thing to do for the fans.
"No problem," she smiled as she walked inside.
"Nick and Kevin should be down soon." I led her into the living room and we took a seat on the love seat as we waited for my brohters.
"Thanks again for inviting me,"Bex said.
"Sure," I said.

Pt.8 operation Friend Tag: Phase Two
_ and Bex had jsut walked in. Belle was blur, running past in search of Frankie.
"Basement," Nick yelled helpfully.
"Glad you made it," I smiled,"Our studio's this way." _ rolled her eyes and followed reluctantly. Kevin looked back at me. I looked away.
"So Bex, what do you want advice on?" I asked.
"Um...how about the keyboard?"
"Excellent! Something I'm good at."
"That's a first,"Nick mumbled. Bex giggled.
In the studio, Bex marveled at our collection of guitars. She walked around the room in awe.
"Wow! This is amazing.Ohmigosh! _ this one's signed by John Lennon!"
"Oh joy...can I go home now?"
"Actually,"I said turning towards her,"Maybe you should go. Your negativity isn't helping anything." _ looked at me with her eyebrows raised. She mumbled something inaudible and plopped down in a chair in the corner.
"On second thought, I"ll stay," she mumbled.Bex screamed.
"You know Bon Jovi?!" she squealed.
"That day was amazing," Kevin said.
"Reminisce later,"Nick said,"She came here for a private tutoring session. I suggest we get started."
"Ooh Mr.President is in business mode," Kevin joked,"Come on, Joe." For the next two hours we helped Bex perfect her key technique. Kevin even taught her how to play Turn Right. Kevin, Nick and _ went to get snacks. Bex stayed behind with me to put the instruments and stuff away.
"Thank you again," she said.
"Hm? Oh, no problem. It gives us something to do. Besides, you're pretty cool, so its all good." She blushed. I put the last sheet of music in a manilla folder. I sat down on a stool and watched Bex.
"Hey Jo---oh!" she turned around and saw me staring at her.
"Um...do you...need something?" she said blushing.
"I was just wondering...would you like to go out sometime?" Bex looked at me with wide green eyes.
"Say wha?!"
"My friends from the band Honor Society are in town.If you want to go, I can easily get us tickets," I smile.
"I'd be crazy to pass up this oppurtunity. Absolutely yes!"
"Great! The concert's in two days, but we're hanging out with them tomorrow.You can come too...if you want."
"sure! Can _ come?"
"I don't think that's a good idea,"I said quietly,"She doesn't seem to like me much and maybe I should just put her out of her misery."
"Are you crazy?! She---"
"Hey, what are you two talking about?" _ said walking in. She what?! SHE WHAT?!! I looked down. Bex looked over at me.
"Nothing,"Bex said,"Nothing you'd be interested in."
"Try me."
"We were talking about our favorite bands. And he was telling me about the people he's met and---"
"Stop.I've lost interest.anyway, I"ve gotta take Belle home. You ready?"
"Yea.See you tomorrow, Joe."
"tomo...what?" _ glared at Bex then she glared at me.
"Nothing!" Bex said quickly,"Let's go."
"Fine..."she said sadly. Then she composed herself and followed Bex out. All the while throwing daggers with her eyes and the back of Bex's head. I smiled to myself. She likes me She came back into the room and marched up to me.
"I don't know what you're doing,"_ said,"But you better stop whatever you're doing. Because its not gonna work." I tilted my head to the side, much like a confused dog. _'s cheeks slightly went pink.
"What won't work?" I asked.
"I...I don't...know," she turned abruptly and left.
"Bye _,"I heard Kevin say. Then I heard the front door slam.
"Well...we've discovered she can feel jealousy," Nick said as he and Kevin came back in the room.
"I can't believe its actually working,Joe,"kevin said.
"I told you it would. My ideas are great!"
"your ideas are pointless," Nick chuckled.
"Basement," Nick yelled helpfully.
"Glad you made it," I smiled,"Our studio's this way." _ rolled her eyes and followed reluctantly. Kevin looked back at me. I looked away.

"your ideas are pointless," Nick chuckled.
Pt.7 Operation Friend Tag: Phase One
It was a whopping 2 weeks before I saw _ somewhere with a friend. I was at the mall with my brothers and I saw her walk out of Forever 21. She was laughing at a joke they were sharing.
"Here we go," I said quietly. I started to walk towards them but Nick pulled me back.
"Are you sure you want to go through with this?" he asked.
"What if it doesn't work," Kevin added.
"It will.Stop doubting me." I started toward the two girls with my brothers close behind me.
"Hey _." She and her friend turned around.
"Oh...hi..Joe," _ said.
"Ohmigosh!" her friend gushed,"You know Joe Jonas?" _ shrugged," He lives nearby. I saw him at the park...once."
"Wow..." I said suddenly,"You have the most gorgeous green eyes." I was looking straight at her friend.
"_, who is this?" I asked.
"This is my friend Rebecca. But everyone calls her Bex." I stepped back and took a good look at Bex. She had black hair chopped into a pixie cut with a single indigo streak in her bangs.She had emerald green eyes. She came off as a rocker, but I could tell that she was definitely more pixie like and girly. She didn't overdue her makeup or have too many piercings. She was genuinely beautiful and had a unique style.
"Its a pleasure to meet you, Bex," I smiled. She blushed slightly.
"I'm sure you know of my brothers, Nick and Kevin."
"Hi," they both said.
"Wow..." Bex gasped,"This is amazing! I...do you...do you think you could give me some tips? I'm in a band and I would love any advice from you guys."
"Bex, I don't think---"
"That's a great idea," I said interrupting _,"You can swing by our place later today or anytime. We'll help you out."
"What do you play?" Kevin asked.
"A little bit of everything," Bex answered.
"Like me," Nick smiled. Bex nodded and blushed again. I saw _ roll her eyes. She grabbed Bex's arm.
"Come on,Bex," she grumbled.
"Um...okay...bye guys. I'll come later today. _'ll come too!"Bex called as _ dragged her away.
"I will not!"
"Bring Belle!" Kevin said.
"Frankie's been asking about her," Nick added. _ turned and glared at me. I gave her a wide smile in return.
"Phase One...complete," I said as I watched them walk away.
"If all else fails," Nick said," You can always go out with Bex. She seems nice.
"Here we go," I said quietly. I started to walk towards them but Nick pulled me back.
"Are you sure you want to go through with this?" he asked.
"What if it doesn't work," Kevin added.
"It will.Stop doubting me." I started toward the two girls with my brothers close behind me.

pt. 6 The Truth Hurts
"You see...I do like you,Joe," _. She said next to me on the couch. She folded her hands in her lap and looked down at them.
"But...I don't think it could work between us." KERSPLOOSH!!!! Do you know what that was? Those were my dreams crash landing back to Earth.That was my hope for the future.
"Um...ouch!" I said.
"I'm sorry,Joe. But it---"
"Shh! I think you should go now. I mean... you're okay.I'm okay. I bet you're just dying to get home." I dtood up and headed for the stairs.
"Joe,I'm sorry but---"
"Hey, can one of you guys take her home? I just suddenly got tired," I said sarcastically.
"Joe..."
"Later! See ya when I see ya." I went up the stairs and sat on the top step.
"wow..."Kevin said.
"He's mad...isn't he?" _ asked.
"No, not at all,"Nick said,"Girls just break his heart on a regular basis.
"I didn't mean to...its just that...you guys are rock stars. It could never work."
"Never say never,"Kevin said,"Anything is possible."
"I'm...going to get Belle..." I heard footsteps retreating.
"Personally, I don't see what he sees in her.Sure, she's cute, but there's nothing else that speaks out about her," Nick said.
"So she keeps to herself...what's so bad about that?" Kevin asked,"You do too."
"Not like that! Since she's been here, what do we know about her?"
"She...uh...had an abusive boyfriend...and turned down Joe."
"Exactly! She doesn't let anything slip. She's hiding something."
"But what?"
"I don't know...but we're gonna need Joe if we want to find out."
"Hey guys, which one of you is taking me home?"_ asked.
"Kevin will. I'm going to talk Joe." I jumped up and ran to my room. I opened the door and jumped on my bed. I turned over so I was facing the cieling. About 5 minutes later, Nick came in.
"Hey, you okay?"
"I'm fine," I said," I'm just trying to figure out how to spend the rest of my days now."
"Joe, she had no right to say that. You're a great guy and any girl would be luckyto have you." I sat up and stared at Nick.
"Are you getting soft on me, little brother?"
"No," Nick laughed. Then I pounced and tackled him with a hug.
"Joe..."he grunted,"Get. Off. I don't like...people touching me."
"I'm not people. I'm your brother," I said still hugging him. Nick continued to try and break free. I eventually let him go. Nick got up and stood by the door.
"Anyways...are you seriously okay?"
"Yea," I nodded,"Her thinking will turn around sooner or later. Preferably sooner."
"You have a plan," Nick said matter-of-factly. I smiled deviously.
"Spill," he said.
"We just have to see her at Starbucks or something."
"That's it? You had me going. I thought it was this big, elaborate—"
"It is. We have to hope she's with a friend. A female friend. Then I work the Jonas charm."
"You are a cruel person."
"Once she sees what she's missing...she'll come around."
"If you say so." Nick left the room shaking his head. *It'll work...I know it will...It * has* too*
"But...I don't think it could work between us." KERSPLOOSH!!!! Do you know what that was? Those were my dreams crash landing back to Earth.That was my hope for the future.
"Um...ouch!" I said.
"I'm sorry,Joe. But it---"
"Shh! I think you should go now. I mean... you're okay.I'm okay. I bet you're just dying to get home." I dtood up and headed for the stairs.
"Joe,I'm sorry but---"
"Hey, can one of you guys take her home? I just suddenly got tired," I said sarcastically.
"Joe..."
"Later! See ya when I see ya." I went up the stairs and sat on the top step.
"wow..."Kevin said.
"He's mad...isn't he?" _ asked.
"No, not at all,"Nick said,"Girls just break his heart on a regular basis.
"I didn't mean to...its just that...you guys are rock stars. It could never work."
"Never say never,"Kevin said,"Anything is possible."
"I'm...going to get Belle..." I heard footsteps retreating.
"Personally, I don't see what he sees in her.Sure, she's cute, but there's nothing else that speaks out about her," Nick said.
"So she keeps to herself...what's so bad about that?" Kevin asked,"You do too."
"Not like that! Since she's been here, what do we know about her?"
"She...uh...had an abusive boyfriend...and turned down Joe."
"Exactly! She doesn't let anything slip. She's hiding something."
"But what?"
"I don't know...but we're gonna need Joe if we want to find out."
"Hey guys, which one of you is taking me home?"_ asked.
"Kevin will. I'm going to talk Joe." I jumped up and ran to my room. I opened the door and jumped on my bed. I turned over so I was facing the cieling. About 5 minutes later, Nick came in.
"Hey, you okay?"
"I'm fine," I said," I'm just trying to figure out how to spend the rest of my days now."
"Joe, she had no right to say that. You're a great guy and any girl would be luckyto have you." I sat up and stared at Nick.
"Are you getting soft on me, little brother?"
"No," Nick laughed. Then I pounced and tackled him with a hug.
"Joe..."he grunted,"Get. Off. I don't like...people touching me."
"I'm not people. I'm your brother," I said still hugging him. Nick continued to try and break free. I eventually let him go. Nick got up and stood by the door.

Pt.5 Paparazzi
This past week,I'd been hanging out at the park with _. Okay, technically we're babysitting, but no one needs to know that. _ started warming up to me, little by little.
"So you seriously didn't eat anything orange when you were little?" I laughed. _ shook her head.
"Nope.I didn't eat carrots, oranges or orange flavored popscicles...none of it. Now, I only eat carrots if I can't taste them and you couldn't pay me enough to eat the orange popscicles."
"That's hilarious!"
"It is what it is," she shrugged.
"What about—"
"_! I thought I'd find you here." We both looked towards the speaker . I frowned, I recognizedd him as the guy from Starbucks.Also known as _'s boyfriend.
"Terry? What're you doing here?" _ said quietly.
"What? I can't see my girl when I want to? Who's your friend?"
"Terry, this is Joe...Jonas."
"No way! One of those gay singer dudes." My eyes narrowed at him.Just keep giving me reasons to beat you to a pulp...
"He's not gay, Terry. And neither are his brothers." Did she just defend me?
"You know I'm babysitting. What do you really want?" _ sounded annoyed. Terry sat down next to _ and put his arm around her shoulder.
"I was thinking you could ditch the kid and we could do something fun." It was making me nauseous watching him nuzzle her neck. I stood up and went to play in the sandbox with Belle. I could still hear them from over here.
"Are you crazy? She's my sister!"
"Let your buddy watch her."
"NO!"
"Hi Belle," I said. Belle looked up at me and smiled widely.
"You're a lot nicer than him," she said. I gave her a funny look. i sat down on the edge of the sandbox.
"Oh uea? How?" I asked.
"He makes Sissy cry."
"He what?!" Belle shrugged like it was nothing.
"Sometimes he comes to our house and yells. ITs scary; Sissy cries. I saw him hit her once. They thought I was sleep, but I wasn't."
"Belle!" I scrunched down to her level," Why didn't you tell your mom and dad?"
"Mommy's never home. We don't have a dad." Well, that explains why _ always evaded my question about her parents.
"Sometimes Mommy stays home. Then Sissy goes places with him." I looked back at the 'couple.' They were still arguing.
"I am not leaving her here," _ hissed.
"Then leave her with the gay guy," Terry insisted.
"No! I will not leave her with Joe. And he's not gay!"
"Are you sneaking around with him? Is that why you don't want to go with me?'
"Have you lost your mind?"
"You're cheating on me!" Terry stood up. What happened next happened so fast, yet it was in slow motion. Terry stood up. then he reared back and slapped _. I jumped up and tackled the jerk to the ground. He punched me in my face, knocking me back. I heard clicks and flashes. I stood up and punched Terry back. More clicks and flashes.
"Now look what you did," I yelled," You've sent the paparazzi running!" I turned my back on him just as he stood back up.
"Are you okay?" I asked _.she nodded.
"Get away from my girl," Terry growled. I glared back at him.
"As of now, she's not your girl anymore. She's mine." I stood and helped _ up.
"Belle!" I called," Come on!" Belle grabbed her shovel and pail and ran towards us. My mood lifted slightly when I remembered I drove to the park today. We started for the car, but Terry grabbed my shoulder and spun me around. He punched me and I saw blood spray from my mouth. I staggered a bit, then he punched me in my nose. This guys was really getting on my nerves. He tried to punch me again, but i grabbed his hand with my right and punched with my left. He fell to the ground. I grabbed _ and Belle's hands and led them to the car.
"Joe," _ said worriedly," You're bleeding." I ignored her and started the car.
"I'm taking you back to my place. We need to get some ice on that." I drove down the street; we were at my house in no time.
"Kevin! Nick! Somebody! I need ice stat!" I yelled as I opened the door. _ gingerly sat on the couch. Belle sat down on the floor in front of her. Kevin and Nick came running down the stairs.
"Joe what're you---Holy crap!" Kevin exclaimed.
"What happened to you?!" Nick blurted. I shook my head,"Don't worry about it. Get me some ice for her cheek. Now! Please..." Kevin ran down the stairs and into the kitchen. Nick ran back up the stairs.
"Joe...your nose," _ said.
"stop worrying about me," I said," I'm fine." Kevin came back with an ice pack and Nick had several wet wash cloths. _ ignored the ice pack and reached for the towels.
"_ what're you---"
"Shut up, Joe!" she said sternly. She started to clean all the nastiness off my face.
"I think he damaged your brain or something..." she mumbled," You are sooo not fine."
"Who's this?" nick asked.
"Guys this is _ and her sister Belle. Oh, speaking of which...where's Frankie?" I asked.
"In the basement with the Wii," Kevin replied.
"Take Belle down there, if you don't mind." Kevin nodded. Belle jumped up and grabbed his hand.
"Is he gonna be okay?" she asked him quietly.
"Oh yea," KEvin said," Joe'll be fine. He's part super hero you know."
"You're gonna bruise like a peach," I mumbled.
"Will you can it?!" _ snapped, "He just slapped me. He could've done a lot worse. He could've done to me what he did to you."
"What happened?" Nick repeated as he sat down in a chair.
"Yea, I'd like to know too," Kevin said leaning against the wall. _ sighed and recapped what happened. I chuckled when she finished.
"What?" everyone asked. _ put another band aid on my face.
"I can't wait to see the tabloids tomorrow."
"There," __ smiled," All better."
"Thanks---OW!" She had pinched me.
"What was that for?"
"For being an idiot!" she yelled,"I'm a big girl, Joseph .I can take care of myself."
"If you say so," I scoffed.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Belle told me this isn't the first time he's hit you."
"Well...little kids lie. Where's your bathroom?"
"Down the hall to your right, second door on the left,"Kevin said. _ stood up and left. Kevin and Nick stared at me.
"So that's her," Nick said. I nodded.
"So that's the girl that's got you head over heels?" I nodded again.
"So that's the girl you decided to just be friends with, but now that plan has odviously changed because you beat the crap out of her boyfriend."
"Hey, if I saw him hit her I would have done the same thing," Kevin admitted,"She's cute."
"Cute?" i said." Cute?! She's not cute. She's gorgeous! I'd give her a rose, but she'd make it jealous."
"Dude, you are head over heels," Nick said in disbelief.
"Yea well...what am I supposed to do about that? I doubt she likes me like that." Suddenly _ appeared.
"You never know," she mumbled.
"So you seriously didn't eat anything orange when you were little?" I laughed. _ shook her head.
"Nope.I didn't eat carrots, oranges or orange flavored popscicles...none of it. Now, I only eat carrots if I can't taste them and you couldn't pay me enough to eat the orange popscicles."

pt.4 Just Friends
I was curled into a ball under my blanket. Pathetic, I know. i didn't feel like doing much of anything. I heard my door open then three bodies plop down.
"C'mon Joe, it wasn't that bad," Kevin said.
"That was probably her brother,"Nick said.
"When are you gonna play games with me again?" Frankie asked.
"It was that bad," I mumbled,"She doesn't have a brother and I don't know..."
"Joe, seriously, Mom's getting worried," Kevin said. I pulled the balnket off my head.
"She should be," I said,"I'm a mess. I stink and I'm pretty sure I'm living without a heart now." Kevin looked at me angrily. He was about to say something but Nick stopped him.
"Why don't you go for a walk," Nick suggested," That seemed to clear your mind before."
"Yea...because—"
"Just do it," he hissed," But you might want to shower and change first. You've been up here for a week."The three of them stood up and left me alone again.I decided to get up because I had a feeling Nick would probably drag me out by force. I took a long shower then I put on some jeans and a t-shirt. I popped my head in Nick's room.
"Do you think—" I began. Nick looked away from the book he was reading.
"Will you just go!" he snapped.
"Nevermind then..."
I had planned on walking in the opposite direction, but my feet weren't listening to me. I ws just about to walk past the park when I heard laughing. I backtracked and went into the park. _ was there, with her sister this time. They were chasing each other on the slide.
"Hello _," I said walking towards them.
"Oh. Hi...Joe," she said," I...haven't seen you in a while."
"Oh yea," I laughed shortly," Well this past week I've been in hibernation. But, the week before that I've been here."
"Well that's funny," she smiled," I have too and I haven't seen you."
"You don't have to lie," I said. She was taken aback. "Um..Belle. Why don't you go swing for a while." Belle ran off for the swings.
"What makes you so sure I'm lying?" she said.
"After that first night you told me you were always, since you wouldn't give me your number. Funny thing is...you weren't here at all. So I figured you were avoiding me. I go out to Starbucks with my brothers and I see you. And you're not alone."
"I..."
"Why don't you just stop trying to think up a lie and tell me the truth?" She sighed and sat down at the foot of the slide. I sat down on the small steps.
"Fine...if you must know," she started,"I was with my boyfriend, Terry."
"Why didn't you just tell me you had a boyfriend?" i asked sadly.
"If you were me and a celebrity asked you out, would you turn him down?"
"Probably not," I admitted,"But I wouldn't not mention that I was already seeing someone."
"Well," she said throwing her hands up," I guess that's the difference between me and you. i tend to keep things to myself." I looked over at Belle. She was still swinging. She lifted her hand and waved over at us. i waved back.
"How about this," i said,"We'll just be friends.No dates or anything."I must like you if I'm saying this. _ looked up at me and smiled slightly.
"I'd like that," she said.
"I could help you watch, Belle. I'm not doing anything else since the tour's over."
"Okay." I smiled and started to walk away.
"Oh wait!" i said turning back,"Since you won't give me your number, here's mine." Bold move, Joe. I gave her my number then walked home. Of course when I got home they were waiting for me.
"Dang it! Nick, it didn't work!" Kevin exclaimed. I stopped in the doorway and lookedat them strangely.
"It worked the last time," Nick said.
"What are you talking about?" I asked.
"Your walk," Kevin said,"You're not happy; you're indifferent."
"What happened?" Nick asked. I sighed and sat down in a chair.
"Well," I said leaning forward and folding my hands," She has a boyfriend."
"No way!" Kevin said. I nodded.
"And?"
"We're...just going to be friends..."
"Who re you and what have you done with my brother?" Nick demanded.
"What?" I laughed.
"The Joe Jonas I know wouldn't give up that easily," he said. I stood up and smiled.
"Who said I was giving up?"
"C'mon Joe, it wasn't that bad," Kevin said.
"That was probably her brother,"Nick said.
"When are you gonna play games with me again?" Frankie asked.
"It was that bad," I mumbled,"She doesn't have a brother and I don't know..."

"Who said I was giving up?"
Pt. 3 Heartache In The Suburbs
I'd been to the park on more than one occasion and _ wasn't there. Was she avoiding me? I was back to sulking in my room. On top of that Nick and Kevin wouldn't leave me alone. Right now, I was trying to watch TV. Keyword: trying. My room was getting boring.
"She broke up with you, didn't she?" Nick asked.
"No," I said through gritted teeth. I switched the channel.
"Are you sure?" nick asked," you haven't been out much lately."
"Neither have you," i countered.
Touche," nick nodded," So are you planning on doing anything at all today?"
"I'm doing it."
"Great! Kev! Joe's coming with us." He got up and left the room.
"What're you talking about? I agreed to nothing!"
We ended up going to Starbucks. Kevin's addiction. I should've known.
"Really? Starbucks?" I said.
"What's you expect?" Kevin asked," If we go anywhere else we get mobbed."
"That's true" Nick added. I breathed in suddenly and choked on my coffee. Kevin and Nick looked at me with a worried expression.
"You okay?" kevin asked. NO!
"Yea," i coughed," fine." I was so not fine. Because guess who walked through the door, and she sure as hell wasn't with Belle.
"We should go," i said. Kevin looked at me like I'd grown 2 heads.
"We just got here!"
"And we should leave. What if the paparazzi comes?"
"Dude, we're regulars here. I think they have enough pictures of us at Starbucks," Nick said.
"Fine. then just drive me home and come back," i said.
"do you know how much gas is?!" kevin exclaimed.
"Fine..."i said through gritted teeth,"ill walk" i stood up and froze.
"I thought you were worried about papparazzi?" Nick said," Walking will send them running." Right as i stood up, __ looked my way. She was laughing at whatever the guy next to her was saying. When she saw me the laughter caught in her throat. She stared at me in shock, surprise and horror. then she quickly looked away. I slowly sat back down.
"Joe?" Kevin asked," Are you ok?" I shook my head.
"No...no i'm not. Can we go...please?" kevin and Nick exchanged a glance then quickly got up. We walked out and I made sure not to look at _.
Once in the car, i layed across the whole backseat.
"So..."Nick began," you want to tell us what's going on?"
"No."
"Then how are we---"
"you can read about it in my journal. but i warn you it won't be pretty."
"She broke up with you, didn't she?" Nick asked.
"No," I said through gritted teeth. I switched the channel.
"Are you sure?" nick asked," you haven't been out much lately."
"Neither have you," i countered.
Touche," nick nodded," So are you planning on doing anything at all today?"
"I'm doing it."

"Fine. then just drive me home and come back," i said.
"do you know how much gas is?!" kevin exclaimed.
"Fine..."i said through gritted teeth,"ill walk" i stood up and froze.
"I thought you were worried about papparazzi?" Nick said," Walking will send them running." Right as i stood up, __ looked my way. She was laughing at whatever the guy next to her was saying. When she saw me the laughter caught in her throat. She stared at me in shock, surprise and horror. then she quickly looked away. I slowly sat back down.
"Joe?" Kevin asked," Are you ok?" I shook my head.
"No...no i'm not. Can we go...please?" kevin and Nick exchanged a glance then quickly got up. We walked out and I made sure not to look at _.
Once in the car, i layed across the whole backseat.
"So..."Nick began," you want to tell us what's going on?"
"No."
"Then how are we---"
"you can read about it in my journal. but i warn you it won't be pretty."
Pt.2 Privacy? I think NOT!
Its finally Friday. It seemed to take forever for it to come. I really hope _ could come. I really wanted to see her again.
"Why are you so dressed up?" Kevin demanded. I turned away from the mirror to look at the door. They have their own rooms. Why are they always in mine?
"I'm not dressed up."
"You're wearing a suit jacket," Nick said coming from behind Kevin.
"Its called a fashion statement," I said annoyed," Why do you care anyway?"
"We're just trying to figure out what happened," Kevin explained,"ONe day you're still depressed about Camilla and the next you're happy."
"Not happy," Nick corrected,"Giddy. He's giddy."
"I am not giddy," I protested. They ignored me.
"I'm telling you," Nick said as he started to walk away," He met a girl on that 'walk' of his."
"Yea...you might be right," Kevin said following him," It would explain the giddiness and the suit jacket."
"I can hear you, you know!" I called after them. Geez! Even when we have our own rooms, there are no secrets in this house.
I drove up to the park at 5:45. I took the car for two reasons. One: If I walked Nick and Kevin would know where I was going. Two: Its a hassle walking everywhere. I parked the car and entered the park. I didn't see her yet. Then again, I am here 10 minutes early. I went to the swings,hoping to clear my mind. It didn't work. I was checking the clock on my phone every 5 seconds. I sighed once I realized what I was doing.
"I must be paranoid," I laughed softly," Now I'm quoting my own songs. And talking to myself...not a good sign." I tried swinging again. But the higher I got, the more paranoid thoughts I thought.
What if she can't come? Or what if she can come, but she brings Belle. That's better than her not coming at all, I guess. She's not coming...I knew it! My star status is intimidating. I'm just a normal guy, really. I just have a big house, nice cars, and mon---
"Joe?" It was her voice.The swing jerked to a stop. I slowly look towards her, half-expecting Belle to be with her. Instead I find her in this light blue dress that made her look even more beautiful, if that was even possible.I knew there was a reason blue was my favorite color
"_ you came!" I said happily. She looked away shyly.
"Yea...my parents thought I deserved a night off." I smiled and that made her blush even more. I got off the swings and walked toward her.
"Great! I was thinking we could get dinner then go on a Twilight Boat Ride. Seriously, that's what its called." She laughed softly. She followed me to my car and we were off. I was very much aware of her sitting next to me, or maybe that was just the adrenaline coursing through my veins. I took her to a five-star restaurant and she gaped at its glory.
"Joe...this place looks...really expensive," _ said.
"Don't worry about that. I asked you out, so its on me," I smiled at her. She blushed again. She fascinated me.I was beginning to think she didn't go out much. I think her parents must think of her as their own personal live-in babysitter. Which sucked, because it meant I wouldn't get to spend as much time as I would like with her.
After dinner, I found out that Google is a liar and should not be trusted. When I looked up this place it claimed it was up and running. More like down and walking. The boats were in bad shape. And everything was run out of a shack! There was no way I was letting _ set foot in one of those death traps.
"Um..." I said nervously," Maybe we should---"
"Go back to the park," she finished. I smiled and nodded.
"that's exactly what I was thinking." I drove back to the park and we walked. As much as I wanted to, I resisted the urge to grab her hand in mine. She told me about her sister and funny things she has done. I told her about funny moments with my brothers. I tried asking about her parents, but she always found a way to steer the conversation in a different direction.
It was close to midnight so I offered to take her home. I was happy when she didn't refuse. She directed me to her house. I told her goodnight, resisting the urge to lean over and kiss her. She lingered in the car. Did she want me to kiss her?
"Thanks for...asking me out," she said. She looked up at me and smiled.
"I had a lot of fun tonight." Whoa... I blinked. Her smile had temporarily stunned me.
"Um...yea...time good I too had a," I said flustered,"I mean...Maybe we could do it again sometime."
"That'd be great."
"Well, i'll need your number then." Her smile faltered.
"Um...maybe we should just meet at the park. I'm always there," she laughed unsteadily.
"Oh...okay."
"Bye Joe!" She got out of the car and walked up to her house. I waited till she was inside then I drove home.
"There's something about her," I mumbled as I unlocked the door.
"Where have you been?"
"Its past your curfew, young man."
"What is this?!" I said flicking on the lights. Kevin and Nick were sitting on the couch facing the door.
"Do you know how worried we were?" Kevin asked.
"We thought you died; got in a car crash," Nick added. I sighed in aggravation and ran a hand through my hair.Yea, right. You guys were waiting up for me and you know it.
"No privacy, whatsoever," I mumbled. I started for the stairs and they got up and followed me.
"So who is she?" Nic asked.
"Go away!" I groaned. I slammed the door in their faces. They opened the door right back up. I collapsed on my bed and covered my face with a pillow.
"If you don't tell us," Kevin threatened,"We'll just read about it in your diary." I shot up. I glared at them suspiciously.
"I don't have a diary," I hissed. Kevin put his hand under my mattress.
"What do you call this then?" he asked. He waved a thin, green book in my face.
"Its a journal. Give me that!" I jumped off the bed and lunged for Kevin. He threw it at Nick.
"Hmmm...the last few entries are very angry worded. Shame on you Joe!" Nick said.
"Stop reading it!" I went for Nick, but he ran out and closed the door in my face. I opened it quickly. Nick was already at the bottom of the stairs. What did he do, slide down the banister?
"Ah! Here we are," he said,"I never knew a walk could be so fulfilling."
"NO!" Nick ran off but continued to read.
"I stopped at that small community park a couple blocks up. I saw this beautiful girl playing with her sister."
"STOP READING IT!!"
"I bucked up the courage to ask her out," Nick read laughing,"She told me she wasn't sure if she could. I hoped she could. Her sister's name is Anabelle. And her's is _.I'll never forget her name." I finally caught up with Nick, but it was too late.
"That,"Kevin said fake crying,"Was so moving!" I snatched my journal out of Nick's hands.
"I strongly dislike you both with a passion," i grumbled. Nick and Kevin laughed loudly.
"NO PRIVACY WHATSOEVER!! I'M PUTTING A PADLOCK ON MY DOOR!!" I yelled as I went up the stairs.
"Why are you so dressed up?" Kevin demanded. I turned away from the mirror to look at the door. They have their own rooms. Why are they always in mine?
"I'm not dressed up."
"You're wearing a suit jacket," Nick said coming from behind Kevin.

Pt.1 Walk It Off
"Another tour finishesd," Kevin sighed. Nick sat off quietly in the corner. Off in his own little world.
"Yea," I agreed, "We finally get a break."
"I thought you like the limelight,Joe," Kevin joked.
"I'm not pig-headed," i snapped. Kevin lifted his hands in surrender. I stood up and walked upstairs to my room. I was so sick of people claiming my fame had gone to my head. That was why Camilla broke up with me.A couple fans came up to us one day; they asked if I was going to do any other movies after Camp Rock 2. I told them I would like to. After they walked off Camilla turns to me and says she needs a break. I'm thinking she means she's tired; we'd been walking a while. She explains herself then she walks away leaving me standing there like an idiot.
Its been a few weeks since the break up and I'm still up here sulking in my room. I just want to know where the pig headed rumor came from. Its bad enough peole think we're gay. Now I've got this on my shoulders.
"All girls are the same," I mumbled. Nick poked his head in my room. Even though we don't share anymore, he likes to come in unannounced.
"Hey Joe," Nick said,"Me and Kev are gonna head up to Starbucks...wanna come?" I got up from my bed and looked out the window. It was a nice day today. Sunny...not too hot or cold.
"No thanks," I said,"I'm gonna take a walk. I need to clear my head." Nick nodded slowly then retreated. I heard the front door open and close minutes later. Then Kevin pulled out of the driveway and drove down the street. I left minutes after. I would've disguised myself, but it was too nice a day to be in a stuffy hoodie. I put on my white Ray Bans and started my walk.
I had only been walking for about 10 minutes when I saw her. She was absolutely gorgeous and I thought I was imagining her for a minute. She was in the park on the swings. My feet seemed to have a mind of their own.Before I knew it, I was walking towards her. There was a little girl with her, her little sister maybe? I was close enough to say something, but just as I gained the courage, she walked away from me. I stood there for a good five minutes with my mouth open. I then noticed the little girl had dropped something. It was a small brown bear. I picked it up and ran to catch up with them.
"Hey, wait!" I called,"You dropped something." They both stopped and turned around. When they saw me they just stared wide-eyed.
"Holy Chicago," she gasped,"You're...you're..."
"Joe Jonas? Yea...I get that a lot," I smiled. Remembering the bear in my hand, I held it out to the little girl.
"Thank you," she said quietly. She snatched the bear out of my hand and went to hide behind her sister.
"Anyway," I said,''I'm Joe, and you are...?"
"I'm _. Thanks for um...getting her bear. She would have been up all night without it."
"No problem." It gave me an excuse to talk to you.
"It was um...nice meeting you," she said backing away slowly, " I have to get Belle home."
"Wait!" Do it! Say it! "Would you like to go out sometime?" _ stopped in her tracks.
"Don't you have a girlfriend?" I shook my head,"Not for the past couple of weeks. I'm actually surprised its not all over the tabloids."
"Well...I'm not sure. I might have to watch Belle." I admit, I was disappointed. Suddenly, a light bulb turned on in my head.
"Okay...well today is Wednesday...so how bout you meet me here Friday at 6 if you can come," I said voicing my plan out loud. I saw the faintest blush on her cheeks.
"Um...well...o-okay. I...we gotta go," she stammered. She turned around quickle. Before I turned to walk away, I heard Belle say, "If you marry Joe can I have your stuff?"
"Anabelle! Shh!" _ said quietly. I chuckled lightly to myself and started to walk home.
Kevin and nick were back, I noticed. I walked in and they just stared at me.
"What?" I asked.
"You look...happy," Kevin said slowly. I shrugged and couldn't help smiling.
"Why?" Nick asked.
"Sometimes its good to take a walk," i laughed. I was still laughing as I went up the stairs to my room.
"Yea," I agreed, "We finally get a break."
"I thought you like the limelight,Joe," Kevin joked.

My Girl Berii
Beautiful; in both the inside and out
Equally artistic; both musically and artistically
Rebel; she dares to be different
Intelligent; she really is, I learn lots from her
Independent; she likes to work solo, but I'm glad she lets me in

Moving On
You didn't want me
Now I'm done with you
Get out, Go away
Now I don't want you
You keep pushing through
And I'm pushing you back
Leave me alone
Let me live my life
I did nothing to you
Then you started hatin' on me
I don't know what I did
But I no longer care
You hurt me, Threatened me, Deserted me
And all you can say is sorry?
No way. I'm done.
Through with you, like you were with me
Don't talk to me; Stop calling me
I'm moving on, and so should you
Now I'm done with you
Get out, Go away
Now I don't want you
You keep pushing through
And I'm pushing you back

Friends
There's these people
I call my friends
I love them so much
They're like my family
I'd die without them
That's how close we are
My friends are my life
And that's no lie
I call my friends
I love them so much
They're like my family
I'd die without them
That's how close we are
My friends are my life
And that's no lie
Raven Rose Rodgers
Remember when we first kissed?
After I won a giant trophy
Victory was all but mine when our lips
Entwined. I dare say I will
Never forget the day I first say you.The sun
Rose and you basked in its glow
Once I saw you smile, I
Saw you in my future
Eternities we spent together
Roaming the world, hand-in-hand
Over mountains,over rivers. I
Don't care where I am.As long as its with you
Guide me to your heart, dear Raven
Eat my love like cherries
Rest your head upon my chest and
Say you love me too
After I won a giant trophy
Victory was all but mine when our lips
Entwined. I dare say I will
Never forget the day I first say you.The sun
Rose and you basked in its glow
Once I saw you smile, I
Saw you in my future
Eternities we spent together
Roaming the world, hand-in-hand
Over mountains,over rivers. I
Don't care where I am.As long as its with you
Guide me to your heart, dear Raven
Eat my love like cherries
Rest your head upon my chest and
Say you love me too

All I do, is think of you
Never once, have I doubted you
Guiding me here, guiding me near
Entranced by your prescence
Loving you, is all I can do
Never once, have I doubted you
Guiding me here, guiding me near
Entranced by your prescence
Loving you, is all I can do
You're Not Sorry
I thought we were friends
Best friends til the end
Now I see I was wrong
Shocking, I know
You turn around and say those nasty things to me
Then you still try to walk over me
Now I know I didnt know you
Just like you dont know me
You say youre glad I'm out of your life?
Why do you keep messaging me?
I have a life
Now get your own
I don't need you weighing me down
Now that youre gone
I no longer feel like Atlas
The weight of the world is off my shoulders
Best friends til the end
Now I see I was wrong
Shocking, I know
You turn around and say those nasty things to me

Coffee =.=
I make a pot
The pot comes back
I fill your glass with water
Another pot
Decaf this time
I fill your glass with iced tea
Another pot
What's that I see?
Coffee grounds have escaped me!
I stand there strainer and filter in hand
Eliminating all grounds
But wait there's more
Yet another pot before I walk out the door
Just one more pot
And I will make no more
The pot comes back
I fill your glass with water
Another pot
Decaf this time
I fill your glass with iced tea
Another pot
What's that I see?
Coffee grounds have escaped me!
I stand there strainer and filter in hand
Eliminating all grounds
But wait there's more
Yet another pot before I walk out the door
Just one more pot
And I will make no more
What I've Been Looking For
I'm looking for a man
A man who can
Love me for me
And cause me jubilee
I'm looking for that one
That one who's tons of fun
He'll bring me chocolate
And oh, quite a lot of it
He'll be wanted for stealing my heart
But he'll never break it apart
He'll know the exact moment to phone
Those days I'm all alone
Too bad for me
My perfect man is imaginary
A man who can
Love me for me
And cause me jubilee
I'm looking for that one
That one who's tons of fun
He'll bring me chocolate
And oh, quite a lot of it
He'll be wanted for stealing my heart
But he'll never break it apart
He'll know the exact moment to phone
Those days I'm all alone
Too bad for me
My perfect man is imaginary
