Yes! For the very first time I've managed to upload a whole story! I just really love the Jonas brothers. Anyways, everything here is fiction (Of course) I hope you like it and sorry if there are some wrong grammars. I'll gladly appreciate if you guys give comments :)
Anyways, as I was making my characters (Yeah, they're mine) I thought of some celebrities that could portray them:
Marissa Willoughby (Hayden Panettiere)
Selma Willoughby (Michelle Pfeiffer) sorry if its wrong spelling
Gertrude Washington (Lauren lane)
Grammy (The grandmother of luke in the movie "Me and luke")
Milo Williams (Ralph Fiennes)
Violet Hamilton(Selena Gomez)
Wend Milton the sister of drew Barrymore in "Music and Lyrics"
Ricky Thompsonthe partner of matthew Broderick in "The producers"
I couldn't think of a celebrity that could portray Lila, so better imagine yourself
I don't own the Jonas. Hehe.
CHAPTER 1: THE FLIGHT
Not everyone is born having a big mansion up Beverly Hills or dozen of cars or even celebrity friends. Well, not this one girl named Lila Williams. We could say that that her life is like Paris Hilton's. In other words, she can have anything she wants because her father is a multi billionaire. But even if their family is filthy rich, Lila is no spoiled brat. She actually buys her things in department stores or anywhere cheap. That's what Lila Williams learned from her mom; simple living is better. Of course, rich people also have their ups and downs once in awhile. Take Lila as an example, her mom, Clarisse, died at the age of 35 when she was only 13, so much to start her teenage years with no mom.
Now at the age of eighteen, she just started going to college. She'll leave their Beverly mansion at 7 a.m. with her usual style. She'll tie her wavy shoulder hazel brown hair in a high pony, brush her side bangs to the right with long strands at each end. She will wear a simple shirt, blue jeans and sneakers like any ordinary girl and that's it! That's how billionaire Lila Williams starts her day. But, not now. It is their summer vacation, so Lila is looking for fun things to do around the house.
She went outside her room wearing a zipped pink jacket, white jogging pants and a pair of white sneakers. She ran down the long white stairs happily, greeting each maids and butlers a good morning. She passed by the living room where maids wipes the vases, chair and furniture while the others separated the curtains to shed some light in the room.
Lila looked around searchingly then finally heard laughter at the back terrace. Their house is on top of a small hill that has a nice view of the beach from the back terrace. Toast, strawberry jam, and a pitcher full of fresh cold orange juice are served by the maid to a man and three women at the terrace.
"Here you are, sir. Fresh juice" the old fat Latina maid said as she puts down the glass in front of the guy.
The guy puts down the newspaper he's reading and fixes his reading glasses.
"Why thank you, Gloria" the guy said politely with a British accent.
Tall, tan and handsome might be the words that describe Milo Williams, Multi billionaire, the best. He has these short yellow sandy locks like a hot surfer guy and clear blue eyes underneath the glasses. A British man who migrated to the states to start a new life fortunately became one of the richest guys. He's already 45 and the father of Lila.
Milo crosses his legs as he reaches for the glass of juice when Lila suddenly appeared.
"Good morning, Dad!" she greeted excitedly then faces the three women at the side of the table. "Morning mom, Marissa, and Aunt Gertrude"
Yes, it's true. Lila called one of them "mom". The girl was next to Milo, eating toast bread. She's very pretty wearing a red sleeveless dress with the wind blowing her long blonde locks. Her name's Selma Willoughby and an owner of a known recording studio. She met Milo a few months after Clarisse's death. After some time, Milo opened his heart once again and married Selma, who is now Lila's step mother. To be honest, it was hard for Lila to adjust and call someone else "mom". But, as time goes by, she got used to it and is even happy to have a step sister.
When Selma married Milo, it wasn't her first time. She was married to an actor who passed away. He left Selma with a beautiful daughter named Marissa. Eighteen, Marissa has long blonde hair like her mom's and green eyes like her father's. Like Lila, she's no spoiled brat, but she buys branded stuff for special occasions. When she found out that she'll have a step sister, she was so happy!
"Hey Lila, good morning! Where you up to today?" Marissa asked and munched on her bread.
Lila leaned over the chair where her dad is sitting and took the bread Selma offered to her. "Walk at the beach, I guess. I'll do something entertaining for myself"
Ahahaha! They all looked curiously when the woman at the other side of the table, all alone, couldn't help it and let out a short startling laugh.
The last person that Lila would not want to be with is her; Gertrude Washington. Eldest sister to Selma and 'witch' for Lila. She has this short blonde bob cut hair, blue eyes and red lips. She's very tall and thin because she was once a model. Still single, Selma and Milo decided to let her live with them. Even without Gertrude saying anything, Lila knows how much her aunt hates her. Just think of Gertrude snarling every time she hears the name Lila or shares pessimistic outcomes whenever near the young girl. It's like she wants Lila gone so that they'll be a perfect family of blondes.
Back at the breakfast table, Gertrude picked up the table napkin from her lap and patted it on her lips.
"Sorry, but I think what Lila just said should be rephrased with 'I'll make trouble today'" Gertrude said, emphasizing the intonation on the name Lila.
It can't be denied that Lila is a troublemaker. Well, not really. She just tends to be a little clumsy at some point. Lila leaned her hand at her dad's chair and tried to calm herself with a forced smile.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure not to entirely break anyone's head" Lila said, but deep inside she felt like strangling the old hag.
Milo went back to his paper and shouted, "No bringing of boys over!", when Lila walked away from the terrace.
Muttering words angrily, Lila stomps across their lawn with a long chain leash on her hand. She approached two gray dog houses: the small one with the name raisin and the bigger one with the name peanut. Lila kneeled in front of the bigger one with a big smile.
"Hey peanut, raisin. Let's go for a walk" she said.
Usually, when she says that, the two dogs will jump at her and knock her down.
Lila just stared curiously at the big dog house then leaned on her right to look at the smaller one, but it was pitch dark. As Lila, being the curious one, she crawled into the bigger dog house just to check if they were just sleeping or something. She started groping for a fur, but she can't feel anything but speck of dirt. While she's leaning on her knees and hands busy, as in literally concentrating on what she's doing, someone bangs the walls of the dog house. It made Lila squeal and jump that made her bump her head on the roof so hard. She slowly retreated and sat on their grassy lawn with legs apart and massaging her head.
"Ouch" Lila mumbled then she heard someone chuckle.
She looked in front of her and saw three guys standing behind the big dog house.
"You know, you look good inside a dog house" the young man in the middle said, carrying a black Labrador puppy. "You look like a little puppy"
Vacation is starting pretty bad for Lila, especially seeing the devil right in front of her.
"Joe. Why am I not surprised to see you?" Lila said sarcastically, standing up on her own and taking the puppy from the young man.
Joe? Sounds familiar, isn't it, especially when the name Nick and Kevin are also mentioned. Yes, the Jonas brothers are a friend of theirs, if it wasn't for the Willoughbys. Long before Selma married Milo, the Jonas already knows the Willoughbys because of Selma's recording studio. And oh yeah, Joe is the boyfriend of Marissa.
"So, where you going doggie?" Joe teased and started barking.
Showbiz is so different from real life; Lila thought and wants to strangle Joe too.
Lila looked at them in annoyance, "Somewhere far so that old witch won't bug me!" she shouted angrily.
The oldest of the Jonas, Kevin, took off his shades and looked at her in a concern way, "Is Gertrude still hating you?"
Other than the Jonas being simple, another thing that Lila loves about hem is having Kevin. For her, Kevin is like an older brother that cares for others so much.
"Well, yeah." Lila mumbled while caressing the puppy's black fur. "She thinks I'll be making trouble"
"Well, aren't you?" Joe butted in.
The youngest, actually the same age as Lila, got annoyed and pinched Joe so hard that mad him yell. "Don't pay any attention to those jerks, like my brother. It'll make you look old" Nick suggested.
Cupid strikes Lila again when she heard Nick talking to her. Obviously she's been crushing on Nick ever since they met. Well, what's not to like? He's cute, sweet, and not a jerk like Joe. The sun is so high and Lila is so sweaty already under her jacket and jogging pants. In the front door, Milo is wearing a white polo shirt, brown shorts and shoes, when he saw Lila on the lawn with three guys.
"LILA! What's the meaning of this? I said NO guys!" he shouted angrily as he runs to them.
The three hid behind Lila and she tried to explain, "What? Oh no, it's the Jonas. See?" she explained nervously and pointed at the three scared guys.
The Jonas stiffly waved at Milo and grinned, "H-Hello Mr. Williams"
One thing that scares the Jonas is Milo. Well, he's not really the scary type of guy, but hut his monster side unleashes when he mistakenly thought that the Jonas bothers were flirting with his daughter. The old good looking man took off his glasses and wiped it with his white pressed polo. He wears it again and looked closely at the three guys. He suddenly smiled when he started to recognize them.
"Oh, it's you guys. Sorry, I thought it was some jerks after my baby girl" he explained with his british accent.
The three guys forced themselves to giggle, but deep inside they were really scared. They remembered the one time they were goofing around with Lila in the mall and Milo saw it. He started to be skeptical. He ran after the three guys around the mall with a baseball bat. It became headline for a week.
He showed a big smile, which looks like a "grinch" type. Creepy. He grabbed his sweaty daughter's wrist.
"Come on in, guys. I have good news for everyone"
He was about to walk inside the house, but Lila wouldn't budge. She looked at her father quite serious while the puppy in her arms wags its tail.
"Dad, I haven't left yet. I'll still go to the beach" she explained and started to have an accent like her old man.
"What? Nonsense! Look at yourself. You're so sweaty from jogging and peanut! She looks so tired"
The big golden retriever lied on her back, acting very tired. Joe squatted to massage her tummy.
Inside, Lila is so irritated. She hasn't gone to the beach, but her father thinks she did. "But dad, I was just here because Joe -"
She never gets to explain anything to her dad. Every time she starts, Milo will place his index on his lips and shush her down. Just like now.
"Now, now. No more excuses and put raisin down and get in the house" he said and went ahead.
The little puppy called raisin, ran around the lawn as soon as Lila placed him down. Lila shacked off the fur on her jacket and Joe approached her coolly with a grin, and smoothly wrapped his arm around her tight.
"Aww, Too bad. The little girl can't go for a walk" Joe said acting very sad in a sarcastic way.
The sun's heat mixed with Lila's frustration. She's already thinking of biting off the arm wrapped around her or wrestles him down. It would be a fun thing for her to do, but she can't. With Nick around. It might, not really might, but a major turn off!
Lila pushed Joe's hand away and stared at the smiling Joe's eyes, angrily. "I don't know what you do and you get lots of fans" she said whispery and walked away.
Everyone gathered on the living room and Joe started flirting with Marissa that, of course, disgusts Lila. Marissa is a pretty and nice girl ever since the first time she met her new step sister and father.
"How come she ever ended up with such a jerk!" Lila whispered angrily, leaning back at the sofa in a slouchy way.
Kevin sat beside her in the same position and chuckled softly. He's the closest to Lila because he has a crush on her and he's the only one who knows how much Lila's hatred for Joe is.
"Come on, he's not that bad" Kevin said nicely, trying to defend his younger brother a bit.
Amused by what Kevin said, Lila laughed and leaned her elbow on the sofa and faced Kevin. "Are you being serious or sarcastic? I couldn't tell" she asked curiously with a sly smile.
"I think it's both" he said, "There are times he's super nice-"
"- and there are times that he's really annoying" Lila ended his sentence, leaving Kevin with his mouth half open.
"I can't really believe that he has a nice side, because he's never been nice to me"
"Are you sure?"
"Well, I don't really remember. So, he's still a jerk for me and I pity my sis"
Everyone is busy chatting with each other when Milo arrived from his study room, carrying a cordless black phone. "Okay, I think you're going to love this news I have" he shared and everyone looked at him and listened. "I just had a talk with my mum and she wants to meet the new members of our family"
"We'll go see Grammy in London?" Lila asked excitedly that made her place her hand on Kevin's lap. Kevin got nervous and sweats a lot.
Milo nodded his head in agreement and points at Lila with the phone, "Yes and mum wants to see you so much! I know this is all of a sudden, but we're leaving tonight!"
Grammy is Lila's favorite grandmother of all. Every time she, Milo, and her mom would visit her, she'll have these freshly baked cookies for her. Lila hurriedly stood up "accidentally" stepping on Joe's foot and then grabbing Marissa by the hand. Lila felt like her arm got disjoint when she pulled her step sister so hard. Marissa wouldn't move! She has this sad eyes again and her hand holding Joe's.
"Dad, do we have to? I mean I wouldn't see Joe for awhile"
"Didn't Joe tell you anything?"
Marissa shook her head in disagreement then looked at her adorable boyfriend with a hot smile
"We're also going to London for a concert"
A strayed thunder struck Lila in the head (Figuratively speaking) and her jaw really dropped, but it was different for Marissa. She couldn't explain how happy she is and hugged him so tight.
"So much for my vacation" Lila mumbled and walked on her way to the second floor in a glumly way.
The second floor's right corridor is very long and filled with doors. Actually, some of the rooms there haven't been opened yet. Five people occupying an enormous house haven't got the time to wander around their own house.
Lila reached the end of the corridor and went in behind the door with a sign named 'Lila'. We could say that she's still annoyed with the idea of having vacation in London with the Jonas. She kept muttering words as she knelt down and grabs her checkered red trolley from under her bed. She carried it with both hands and opened it as soon as she placed it on top of the bed.
Marissa followed Lila and peeked inside her step sister's room and heard some clinging hangers beside. "Lila, are you here?" she called out.
Lila slowly backed off from her closet, carrying a pile of clothes that she couldn't see Marissa anymore.
"Yep. And could you give me a hand?"
Like any nice sister, Marissa went in and took half the pile of clothes from her arms and placed it on the trolley. Lila also placed the ones she's carrying, in the trolley and sat down at the bed and so did Marissa.
"Aren't you going to fix your things yet? We'll leave tonight" Lila asked while she folds some of the jackets she'll be taking.
Marissa drew a breath and looked at Lila with a worried smile.
"Do you think your Grammy would like me?" she asked.
"What? Of course she will. You're the greatest step sister I could ever have! Don't worry about it. This will be a fun vacation"
"Yes, it will. Especially that Joe will be with me"
Lila rolled her eyes and went back to folding, which Marissa noticed. Downstairs, Selma is talking to Milo saying how nervous she is to meet his mother, Gertrude not wasting another moment and locked herself in her room to pack and then there's the Jonas. Nick's and Kevin decided to go ahead in their nice silver convertible while Joe decided to have a minute with his girl. He fixed his pink shirt a bit so that if he bumps to Marissa anytime, he'll look presentable. He went up the stairs skipping one step at a time, to get up faster. He also turned to the right corridor and stopped at the first door, which obviously meant it was Marissa's. He was about to open it when suddenly he heard her voice coming from the room at the end of the hall.
The door is open and Joe decided to surprise Marissa. He walked sneakily near the wall with a grin.
"Why do you hate Joe so much?" Marissa suddenly asked and of course Joe heard it. It seems that her girlfriend isn't alone. Luckily, Joe controlled himself and didn't barged in. instead, he started eavesdropping from the corridor. It was time to tell the truth for Lila and she let go of the pink jacket she was about to fold. She looked around her white well- organized room before answering. "It's not that I don't like your boyfriend"
"Then what is it?" Marissa asked again, but sounds very calm.
"It's just that we don't get along well. I don't know why though. He keeps annoying me, to be honest"
"Really? Do you want me to talk to him?"
"NO!" Lila answered sharply and raises her index. "A talk between couples some times ends up with breaking up. AND I don't want to be the reason if ever that happens. For you, my beloved sister, I'll cope with your guy"
Marissa felt touched with what her sister said and hugged her tight.
Still standing at the corridor, Joe feels kind of weird inside. As if he is feeling guilty about the way he treats Lila. He took a deep breath and knocked softly on the open door, three times. The sisters let go of each other and Lila started to have that annoyed expression of hers. Again.
"Speaking of the devil" she murmured, and Joe didn't mind.
"Well, I just wanted to say goodbye to you" he explained to his girlfriend.
Marissa stood up from the bed and hugged Joe so much while Lila felt disgust.
"You're sweet as always" she said sweetly and held each others hands. "Oh, I want to give you something"
"What? Now?"
"Yes! Wait here"
The blonde girl ran out of the room, leaving the two with each others presence. Joe just stood there with his hands inside his blue jeans pocket while Lila zips her trolley close and puts it in a corner.
They were completely quiet, not minding each other. Lila walks on the other side of the room to open her desk and Joe. He is still standing beside the door. For some reason, it just made Lila more frustrated.
"Come on, you're killing me!" she finally exclaimed.
Joe turned to the brown haired girl, getting confused. "Woah. I don't get it. I haven't done anything to you"
Lila walked towards Joe, whose two inches taller than her, with arms folded. "Exactly! You're not annoying me at all which is kind of weird for me"
"-or you're weird"
"Ok, my bad. You're still a jerk" she said coolly and went back to the desk, but Joe followed her to the other side who wants to clear things up.
"What is wrong with you? If I annoy you, you'll get mad. If I don't annoy you, you still get mad!"
Adrenaline all over Lila and she raised her hands with her fingers all together as if she's holding a piece of nut. It's something she does when she's mad. For her, the fingers drain away her anger which makes her feel relieved inside. She turned again to her most hated person and calmed a bit. "Yes, I'm officially weird right now. I'm just in a panic that we'll go to London with you guys"
"Ok, why would you panic about that?"
"I- don't know. Just do me a favor and go to Marissa's room, please?"
Joe drew a deep breath, placing his hands on his waist, still confused about Lila. "O-kay, weirdo. buhbye" he said teasingly and closed the door on his way out.
She closed her drawer with her hips since her hands are occupied with laptop, notebook, ipod and cellphone. Lila carefully placed it down on her soft bed and went back to her big white closet. Her closet is very organized; jackets are all hungered; t-shirts, sleeveless tops, skirts and pants are all folded in their specific racks and so are the flip flops, high heels and sneakers. But, that's not what Lila is looking for. She looked at the shelf on top of the closet where she stocks all types of bags. Whether it's a shoulder bag, hand bag, back pack, any kinds of bags! She stood up with her toes to reach the shelf and carefully pulled the green body bag. Of course when you're traveling, you'd want to separate the valuable ones with another bag. And that's what she did.
At last! She has finished packing and she went straight to her bathroom and is going to take a nice hot bath.
Downstairs, the family's luggage are aligned beside the stairs and the butlers take them one by one inside the van. Selma is already ready for the trip wearing a red turtle neck long sleeved shirt, black pants and red pointy shoes. Gertrude is also ready for the trip. Actually very excited, wearing all her branded clothes. A beige blouse from Dolce underneath a checkered coat from Louis Vuitton, a pair of black pants from Calvin Klein and black high heels from Chanel. So much for being simple. The two of them are in the living room and Marissa is so excited yet nervous since she's about to meet her mother- in- law.
"Gertrude, I'm so excited! Aren't you?" Selma said and stopped walking around and approached her sister with hands clasped.
Gertrude folded her hands. "Why of course, dear. This is London we're talking about" she answered.
"Yes, you're right. But, I'm also nervous. What if Milo's mom doesn't like me?"
"Nonsense, she'll like you. And speaking of Milo's mother, we can persuade her to leave Lila there!"
Selma's eyes widened with what she heard and couldn't really it.
"Gertrude! How can you say that?" she said angrily, but in a whispery voice.
"Well, sister. Look at her! She's a trouble maker and she's an embarrassment, all we want is a happy family of blondes. She's like Dennis the menace- but for real." Gertrude debated with an evil sly smile.
"She's Milo's precious daughter and my step daughter. So, better be careful with what you're saying"
Just in time, Milo is coming down the stairs in a faded blue polo, gray pants and black shoes. Selma fixed herself and gave her sister a sharp look. "Don't ever talk about Lila like that" she whispered
She approached her husband with a big smile and gave him a warm kiss on the lips while Gertrude just rolled her eyes and went out of the house. The two love birds stood in front of the stairs, giving each other those sticky mushy looks.
"Do you think it's okay if we go to the airport now?" Milo asked with a grin.
He must be really excited to get to London for him to persuade his wife to go this noon when he knows very well that their departure will be at six in the evening. Selma giggled and wrapped her arms around the British guy's shoulders. "Well, if that's what you want." She said sweetly and kissed him.
"Get a room" somebody shouted and the two stopped and smiled at the stairs direction. It was Lila who shouted, looking adorable as ever. She tied her hair up in a ponytail and is wearing a v-necked red long sleeved shirt blue jeans and a pair of red sneakers with white stripes. Alongside Lila is her beloved sister, Marissa. She also tied her hair up and is wearing a floral spaghetti strapped blouse with plunging neckline, with the colors blue, yellow and white. For the bottom, she's wearing blue jeans; she borrowed from Lila and a pair of yellow heels. Their parents are really amazed with how the way they look and opened their arms for them. And there they were, standing in front of the stairs, having a group hug.
"This will be the best vacation we'll ever have!" Milo told them.
"Yes, it will and I'll show you, Marissa, the greatest shopping centers in London" Lila said to her sis with a grin.
"Okay,okay. Let's talk about it inside the van. Let's go" Selma said and forced them to go out. They went inside their silver van and Gertrude was already inside, sitting beside the driver, reading a magazine. The four also get in and is already on their way to the airport.
A few hours later, they were already away from their Beverly mansion and have already arrived at the airport. They looked outside and were thrilled to see a lot of screaming girls with posters and placards of the Jonas brothers. "Hmm. Their flight is early" Lila said and watched the girls go crazy.
Marissa joined her and gave her a grin, "Actually, they'll be in the same plane as ours. I just told Joe to come early because we'll be early"
"Huh. I should've known"
They went down the van with their luggage and went in the airport. Marissa suddenly left her luggage to Lila as soon as she saw Joe looking hot with an orange shirt, blue jeans and big shades. She jumped at him and gave him the sweetest kiss in the world. Lila walked passed by them, feeling like hurling, carrying her green body bag and her checkered trolley along Marissa's pink trolley.
She approached the other two Jonas with a big smile, because Nick is there. Kevin kept his game boy as soon as he saw Lila. Like Joe, he's also wearing a shirt, but a green one with a Scooby doo print on it, then a black jacket with white stripes at the sleeves, black jeans and green chucks. Nick, on the other hand, is wearing a white shirt with 'I'm a rock star' printed on the middle and instead of a jacket, he's wearing an open faded blue collared polo. And for the bottom is a pair of blue jeans and white chucks.
"I can't believe that we're going to be waiting here for five hours" Lila said, really bummed about it.
"Yeah, hours of boredom" Nick answered and of course, Lila melted.
Lila placed her luggage and Marissa's beside the Jonas' stuff and she sat down. It felt creepy that most of the girls in the airport are giving Lila an evil look. Maybe it's because Kevin and Nick are sitting on both sides of her. "Thanks for sitting beside me and now every single girl here wants to kill me" she told them and leans back at the chair.
The two Jonas just smirked and Kevin remembered something and reached out for something inside his jacket's pocket.
"I almost forgot. Here" Kevin said and handed Lila a long box wrapped in gold wrapper and with a ribbon.
Lila took it. "What's this?" she asked curiously, pulling the string while Nick watched in excitement.
"It's a little present from our parents. They said it's their way of thanking you for being a good friend to us"
Lila already opened it and doesn't want to believe what she's really seeing and it could be seen from her reaction that she's truly surprised. Her hazel eyes widened and her jaw slowly dropped yet with a smile. She took out whatever was inside the box; it is sparkly. It was a silver necklace with an aquamarine pendant.
"Oh my gosh! This is very beautiful. Thank you so much!"
Kevin volunteered to put it on her and Lila quickly turned around. She didn't need to move her hair since it's tied up and it doesn't touch her nape. She waits there patiently with a huge smile as Kevin puts it on her. Her eyes looked around and could see people gossiping. And she knows it's about her. "I bet the they'll think that Kevin is my boyfriend"
Of course, inside Kevin's mind, he liked the idea so much. He's been crushing on Lila since they met her.
Kevin had placed it already and Lila touches the precious stone, then Nick faced her with a grin and his eyebrow rose. "I'm sure they're not thinking of that"
"You sure? It looks like they've already took a picture of Kevin putting the necklace on me"
"Well, it would change"
Lila didn't' really understood what Nick meant, except when he made an event. He quickly wrapped his arms around Lila so tight and gave her a long smooch on the cheek. Everyone was so startled and excited as they take pictures of them. Now Lila knows what Nick was trying to say. Kevin and Lila wouldn't be the talk of the town, but Nick and Lila. Lila screamed so loud that made Milo, Selma, Marissa, Joe and even Gertrude, running to see what happened.
"Lila, what's wrong?" Milo asked worriedly, but it looks like he didn't really need to worry.
The young girl's face is all so sweaty and cherry red. She's just sitting there slapping Nick continuously on the arm. The weird thing is, she's smiling! Actually, all the emotions had mixed up already. She likes it because her crushed kissed her yet she got nervous; she feels awkward about it, she's worried that the fans would get mad at her and it will be shown t.v. and mad at Nick for doing it on public.
"I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!" she squealed continuously as she slaps Nick, who just kept on laughing and does a high five with Kevin. Kevin is also laughing along Nick, but deep inside, he was really jealous.
Selma squatted and caressed Lila on the arm, "What's the matter?" What happened?" she asked worriedly.
Lila looked at her step mom and the others with her worried red face. The people in the airport have all their eyes on Lila and she can't help it, but feel really embarrassed. She leaned her head on her lap and won't look at them and started moaning.
Nick finally managed to stop laughing and wrapped his left arm around his aching stomach.
"Okay, sorry. It was my fault" Nick admitted with a smile. He was holding off his laugh. "I kissed her on the cheek"
For a minute there, everyone became quiet while Gertrude walked away, thinking that it was a waste of time. It's quite surprising for the others because Lila's never been kissed before by any guy other than her dad. Joe raised his hand and chuckled a bit while he talks, "Dude, that's cool! You're his first kiss!"
As if she was registered to do it, Lila kicked him on the leg without changing her position. Joe felt weak and nearly fell on the floor, but he's lucky Marissa is there to support him. Feeling relieved that it wasn't anything serious; Milo gently patted his only legitimate daughter on the shoulder and went back to his waiting area with his new wife.
Five hours later, the box of pizza that Milo ordered was completely wiped out up to the smallest crumb. And Lila hasn't moved from her position and Nick felt quite guilty. He smoothly leaned forward to Lila's level and wrapped his arms around her once again, "Hey, I'm sorry already. Please talk to me now" Nick whispered and acted extra humble.
"Well, let go. Before others misunderstands us again" Lila finally mumbled and sat back up. She looked at Nick with a shy smile, still with a red face and Nick smiled back.
Passengers of flight 011, please get ready. Passengers of flight 011, please get ready. The announcement goes on and on all over the terminal and the passengers did what they're told. Lila stood up and gets her luggage ready. While she was busy checking out her things alongside Kevin, Marissa walked towards them with Joe's arm around her shoulder to get her pink trolley. They were starting to flirt with each other again, kissing, which gave Lila Goosebumps.
"I don't get it. They always talk to each other or ALWAYS together, why is it that they act as if they won't be seeing each other anymore?" Lila protested and started walking with Kevin.
"I guess that's just how couples are" Kevin shared, but not really sure with what he's trying to say. Like Lila and Nick, Kevin is also single, maybe that's why the three of them gets along so well.
The passengers formed a line and gets in the plane one at a time. Lila clutched onto her green body bag filled with valuable things and to her plane ticket. She was about to follow Nick and Kevin to the line, but someone suddenly called her. She turned around and saw her father approaching her with a brown leather bag on his hands.
"Oh, hey dad" Lila said with a smile.
"Hi, darling. Are you excited?" Milo asked.
"Of course I am. It's been a long time since we've visited Grammy"
"Yes, yes. You're right. Well, I just found out that I'll be sitting with Selma and Gertrude. Arte you sure you'll be okay sitting with a stranger?"
Lila might be eighteen, already an adult who can manage for herself, but for Milo, she's still his baby girl.
He'll remember the younger times of Lila together with Clarisse. Clarisse was the most beautiful girl Milo ever met in his entire life. She has a long wavy hazel hair, brown eyes and tan complexion. The three of them would always go to London every summer and have the time of their life.
Milo blinked when Lila held his hand, "Dad, I can handle myself. Don't worry" she cleared and gave her dad a smack.
The line was getting shorter and Nick and Kevin has gotten in already. On the front, the model looking stewardess with her orange hair in a bun, took the old lady's ticket and smiled, "Just take a left and another flight attendant will show you your seat" she said professionally.
Next in line is Lila, who politely handed her ticket to the stewardess with a smile.
"Your seat would be at the right and another flight attendant will show it to you"
"K, thanks" Lila said softly.
She walked in the aisle, passing by a lot of people who's placing their small luggage on the upper cabins. She looked seat A3 and she found it easily. Not only that, she also found out who she'll be sitting with.
"You've got to be kidding me" Lila said very annoyed.
Once again, she bumped to Joseph Jonas, the last person she wanted to see. Joe is putting his things on the top when he heard the familiar annoyed voice. He pulled his shirt down a bit and gave Lila a smile. "Hey, doggie. It looks like we're sitting together" he shared.
Lila just rolled her eyes and stood up close to him, giving him a sharp serious look.
"Please, don't even think about annoying me"
"Well, let's see about that. Now, come on. Give me your bag so we can place it on top"
The young girl took off her body bag and carefully handed it to Joe. "Please be careful with that"
"Fine"
Before putting it on top, Joe can sometimes be a gentleman to Lila. Well, it's actually the first time he ever did. He moved back, gave a bow to Lila with a smirk an he lets her sit first. In their row, an old man is occupying the seat next to the window, so Lila is in the middle and Joe in the aisle.
Everyone puts on their seat belt and the plane is starting to move already. Lila reached inside her pants pocket and got her black ipod nano out. "Finally we're going" she said and untangles her earphones. Joe also took out his identical ipod, except that instead of an earphone, his are headphones. He turned to his seatmate and smirked as he places his headphone around his neck.
"Well, someone's eager to be away from home" Joe said and for the first time, he has said something right.
"Totally eager. I like it better in London to be honest. I even wish I could just live there"
"Then why don't you?"
"Well, if you haven't noticed my dad and I have a new family so there" Lila ended and puts on her earphone.
The two of them minded their own business, rotating their ipods, picking a song to listen to.
"So, watcha listening to?" Joe asked curiously.
Lila took a sigh and showed the screen to him. She's listening to S.O.S. by them, the Jonas Brothers.
He can't help it and smirked at her, not expecting that the person he irritates a lot listens to their songs. "Wow, I never knew you listen to our tracks"
"I can't believe it too, but I'm a fan. Tsk. So, where's Marissa sitting?"
"She's with Nick and Kevin all the way at the front"
"So, do the both of you have any plans when we get there?"
"Well, after concerts and press cons. I'll find some time to be with her"
"Ooh. Good luck with that I'll take a rest now, I'm very tired" Lila said as she covers her mouth while she yawns.
"Night, doggie" Joe added and he received a slap on the lap.
At last, they're up the starry sky away from the U.S.A. Lila couldn't wait to get down already and start her vacation. for her, this would be different from the past vacations, especially that she already knows the Jonas brothers personally. Which means free concert in her dictionary.
