This is purely a fanfiction story meant for reader's enjoyment and nothing else.
Authors Note: Okay, I'm having way too much fun writing JONAS LA fanfics. This is my second Nick and Macy one! Please review it and let me know what you think! Your comments motivate me to keep writing and I think I'll write my second Joe and Stella story soon, so let me know what you think! I hope you like reading these as I love putting them together! This is a short story by the way in three parts. It would be a lengthly one shot, so I decided that I'd upload it in three chapters because it naturally breaks at these parts!
Do you remember as a kid ever playing 'House' or 'Princesses'? Maybe you were even a super hero saving the world from an evil villain? As a kid, I did all of these. I would watch Cinderella over and over again for weeks straight and scream when my mom demanded I change out of my princess ball gown costume so she could wash it. I never wanted to take off my dress up clothes. I went through phases like many kids did from princesses to make believe games and then came my preteen years. I started obsessing over all things pop culture. My mom swears I've never grown out of that stage either. It wasn't long until I fell in love with the boys of JONAS. I'll be the first to admit that I was a hardcore fan girl of the band for many years. I still remember the day I realized I had a problem.
My mom walked in my room one day with a dry erase board calendar as a present for me that she wanted me to hang up on my wall to help me stay organized with my sport practices and school work. She stood at the center of my room spinning around trying to find a spot on my covered walls to put it.
"Macy Misa! What are we going to do with you? Your room is full of that JONAS band… I think it's time to reorganize your things and get rid of some of these hundreds of posters!" She had told me. Being a teenager, I rolled my eyes at her and turned back to my laptop to keep working on the JONAS website I was setting up for the fans.
I was like that for quite a while and I kept falling into a deeper and deeper obsession. It probably wouldn't be a surprise if I revealed that I had a JONAS shrine in the back of my closet. Once I started seeing Kevin, Joe and Nick around school, I tried really hard to act normal around them and to keep my fan girl tendencies under wraps, but it was no use. I am pretty sure that the boys purposely steered clear of me because I somehow managed to act like a clown around them and always seemed to be injuring them. It wasn't my fault that I got all clumsy around three of my idols. Have you heard their music? It's so inspirational and I could listen to it all day long every day… Okay sorry, back to my story before I get too carried away.
So, naturally I had a crush on Nick of JONAS. I loved Kevin and Joe too of course, but something about Nick made me fall for him the minute I first saw him in person. He was a lot better in 3D and not just captured in a picture on a band poster. My best friend, Stella, was supportive of my small crush, but she tried very hard to get me to break my obsession with the band. She often told me that the boys would like me a lot better as a friend if I wasn't trying to claim I found their lookalikes in random pieces of food or claiming that I knew more about them then their selves.
I didn't listen to Stella until the Lucas boys left for their tour. I felt lonely without them and I know that's incredibly cheesy to say, but I finally realized that their friendship meant more to me than a stupid little obsession over the band. So, I did the unthinkable. I went to my room and tore down every single poster of the band, minus my favorite one, because that one I couldn't part with no matter how many times my hand reached to take the tape off. I put all the items from my JONAS shrine in a cardboard box and brought it to the attic. Without my JONAS obsession defining who I was; I was just Macy Misa. No one had seen only this side of me and so I had the opportunity to reinvent myself. Bring on Macy Misa version 2.0!
Disguise # 1: Macy Version 2.0
It wasn't difficult to reinvent myself. Now that it was summer, I could wear the outfits I wanted instead of the dull school uniforms. Stella was more than happy to supply me with some gorgeous summer clothes and we had treated ourselves to several rounds of retail therapy whenever we were bored without the guys. I had started to wear my hair down and was pleasantly surprised when the sun gave it a few natural highlights. I had gained composure and control over my emotions and had practiced enough to believe that I could stay calm in any situation involving a JONAS member. I loved the new and improved me. With a smile on my face, I had already turned the heads of several boys around town. The best was yet to come though. The new me needed a fresh start in a place where she wasn't labeled the 'crazy, obnoxious fan girl'.
This new place happened to be Los Angeles, California where Stella and I were invited to spend the summer with Kevin, Joe and Nick, who had successfully completed their tour a few days ago. Stella and I were excited and jumped around a couple of times before we packed up and headed off to L.A. excited to be greeted by warm weather, sandy beaches and a whole bunch of new experiences. I left New Jersey with the attitude that L.A better be ready for the all new Macy Misa and I could tell that Stella was impressed too.
"Do you think the boys will notice that you've changed?" Stella asked me while we were in our seats on the airplane.
"I'm not sure, boys can be so unobservant sometimes," I answered and we both laughed over the truth of my comment.
When it came time to meet up with the boys at their 'House Party', I was a bundle of nerves. My stomach was in knots. What if all I had worked hard to create came tumbling down like a wall of bricks? I hadn't seen the Lucas brothers in over two months and maybe my new image and personality was too fresh to withstand the sight of them. I took a couple breaths and reassured myself that they would love this new Macy and be relieved that the obsessive fan girl was gone. I was nervous, but excited to see them all again and I did a good job at keeping my composure while talking to them.
Though it was difficult at times to not shriek from excitement when Nick hugged me, told me it was nice to see me again or declared he wanted to spend more time with me when he noticed that I had changed, I held my ground. Every time that I successfully stayed calm, I could feel the old Macy fading away for good. I loved the new me and it seemed like everyone liked this version of me better than my old self especially Nick. I started feeling comfortable in my skin again and focused on having the summer of my life.
