I groaned and lay flat on my bed as I changed the TV channels, bored to heck. "......and Lucas dating...." I sat up, eyes wide as I switched to that
one channel and listened. Hey, when there's a JONAS-related thing on TV, I'm awake. "Yes, the rumors seem to be true. Besides Kevin and Danielle
dating, it looks like 19-year-old Joe Lucas has found someone too." Oh, gosh. This is good if it was..... "The lucky girl is Peggy Jonson." I let go of my
hair and cocked my head. "Who the irk is Peggy," I questioned myself. "She's some chick from the new music video and your favorite Lucas Brother's
new gf," I heard Stella answer, coming up to me. "...........I FREAKIN' HATE HER," I screamed. "So do I, but I don't think Joe will like you anymore if
you kill her, Macy." "I was hoping for Sonny, since I hate Peggy; she's too old, not really that good at her job, ugly, and her eyebrows make Joe's
eyebrows look normal," I reasoned. "That I agree with, but don't say anything," Kevin said. "You," Stella asked, "You? His older brother? Doesn't like
who he's dating? Amazing." "And weird," I commented, "Anyways she better find a good hiding spot 'cause any fans who like Joe and I are gonna kill
her," I promised, "Doesn't Joe know he's being used: 'They're all the same, they all want the money. They're all insane, they live for fame honey.
They laugh at you when you're not even being funny.' She another video girl. I mean, he can do better that this." "He's blinded by love," Kevin
sighed, hugging me. Tears started streaming down my cheeks. "Doesn't he know he's breaking everyones hearts, but mostly mine?" Stella handed
me a tissue, saying, " If only Joe knew you loved him more than a friend. He just doesn't know it." "At least he doesn't hear you ranting about how
you're gonna hunt down Peggy," Nick said, walking in. Kevin raised an eyebrow and questioned, "Even though you like her. That's a shocker." "I
figured out she was a video girl once she started laughing at Joe. When he didn't say anything. And also when the paparazzi showed up at the
perfect timing. I mean, COME ON! The paparrazzi doesn't get that many pictures in a week." Stella agreed. "True." I spoke up, saying, "I really do
love him. I love him so much, I just want to protect him." Kevin let go of me, confused. "What do you mean, 'protect'?" I sat up. "I don't know exactly
why, but I have a feeling in my spine that it's gonna be opposite day when they break-up." Nick cocked his head and asked, "How so?" I sat myself
on my desk then continued, "Well, for one thing: I never heard of Peggy until Danger started dating her. I mean, I want to be happy for him, but
she's just a little too conceited about herself. Besides, I think Peggy is using Joe for the fame; and once she's done, it will be worse than the Susan
break-up. Remembered what happened after that?" "Yeah," Kevin replied, "Joe was depressed for months, which made Macy depressed "Yup. I can
tell he really loves her. The way he looks at her, takes her out in public. I'm not ready to see him miserable shattered, and heart-broken again."
*ring* Stella looked around, then asked, "Who's phone was that?" "I don't know," Kevin said, sarcasm in his voice, "Maybe someone by the name of
Joseph Adam Lucas?" "Thank you, Paul Kevin Lucas The 2nd aka Captain DUH." Nick and I crept behind the door and listened since Joe's
cellphone was on speakerphone (hint: not exactly the best idea if you're going for a private conversation). "Hi, Peggy," he groaned, trying to sound
happy. "Hi Joey," she answered in that stupid voice, "I was thinking for dinner, we should go to-" "Listen, Peggy," he interrupted, " Is the paparazzi
gonna be there, 'cause everywhere we go, they're where we are." She scoffed, saying, "Probably not this time." "I hope so too, cause well,
sometimes I need some privacy." Peggy started laughing and said, "You are so funny, Joseph." I saw Nick roll his eyes, then kept listening. "I have a
question to ask," she continued, "Do you want come over and... you know?" "Macy, close your mouth," Nick whispered. "WHAT, NO WAY," he replied,
very loudly. "But if you truly love me, you would have said yes." "I have a purity ring, which means I won't have it, until marriage." "Forget the ring."
"Okay, my brothers and friends are right, you are a video girl." "Fine. I AM a video girl. I dated you for the fame and money, making your fans
jealous, especially that creepy one who stalks you guys. In reality, you are so not funny or cute. So we're through." Nick and I heard the phone
disconnect, close, and then his running footsteps going to the fire pole.
