The Wedding

"Hello?" Joe Jonas said sleepily into the bedroom phone as it rang.

"Hey, it's Nick; can I ask you a huge favor?" Nick, Joe's brother, asked.

"Sure, what is it?" Joe said, looking at the clock on his nightstand, pressing the button to show the time, which read '5:45 AM'. He looked over to right to look at his girlfriend Lilly to make sure that she was still sleeping before he slipped out of the bed and walked into the kitchen to make some coffee.

"Meet me and Kevin in the food court of the mall in ten minutes." Joe's eyes widened at the time. Was the mall even open at that time? In addition, he lived quite a ways away from the mall.

"Nick, I live seventeen minutes across town, from your house, when there is absolutely no traffic. It would take me at least twenty-five minutes to get to the mall; and I still have to get dressed and shit. By the way isn't the mall closed right now?" Nick sighed before saying:

"Don't worry about that; just haul ass and get here in thirty-five!" Nick shouted in exasperation before abruptly hang up on his older brother. Joe's eyebrows furrowed together when he heard the dial tone, and pulled the phone away from his ear. He shook his head, dismissing Nick's frankness and anger before getting ready to leave, and pouring himself a cup of coffee.

(Forty-five minutes later)

"Joe, finally, you're late!" Nick shouted across the food court as Joe walked through the main entrance. Joe shook his head, at his brother's behavior; it was not like him to be angry.

Joe quickly made his way over to Nick and said, "I'm only ten minutes late, and I believe I explained that it would take a while for me to get here. Now what is all this about? Oh, hey Kevin." Joe said, waving at his older brother. Kevin waved back.

Nick took a deep breath, held it, and then released before continuing, "I'm sorry, it's just that I'm a little nervous today."

"Would you please enlighten us as to why? Because I don't like being woken up at 4:30 in the mourning and being dragged to the mall, with out a reason." Kevin asked his baby brother in a slightly hostile voice.

"I'm planning on asking Miley to marry me tonight, but I still haven't gotten her a ring yet. I was hoping that you guys would help me pick one out."

"Nick, of course we'd want to help you. Anyway, how are we even in here right now? I know the mall doesn't open until ten; and why did you wake Kevin up at 4:30 and not call me until 5:45?"

"What! He waited until then to call you. Nick!" Kevin exclaimed, "Maddie kept Erin and me up all night. Why couldn't you have called me later?"

"Sorry Kev, but I forgot that you moved and thought that you still lived farther away, my bad. Anyways I called both of you early because I didn't want Miley to know that I had left, so she wouldn't ask questions and then get suspicious."

"Ok, but how are we here right now?" Joe asked.

"I might have paid the mall to open up early, and then paid even more to the owner of the jewelry store to open and be here this early.

"Nick!" Both Joe and Kevin exclaimed.

"What I'm sorry, I didn't any paparazzi to see what we're up to; and then have Miles hear about it on TV before we even go out for dinner." Nick explained. His brother's sighed, each slightly annoyed with the fact that their brother did what he did; but they understood where he was coming from.

Joe shook his head before saying, "Alright little bro, let's go get you a ring." Joe put his hand on his brother's shoulder and the three of them headed toward the jewelers.
