Wow last challenge already, dang it went fast. It's December already as well, can't believe how fast time flew.
So I saw the new challenge and "It's official" and this came in my mind.
"It's official the hot group JONAS has split up" she read in a sad voice.
It was six am and four teenagers were huddled under an umbrella by a newspaper stand. The blonde, who was holding the paper looked up and at the two boys beside her.
It had made the headlines. They knew when they reported it in, it would be huge but they never pictured it hurting so much.
Stella Malone looked up from the paper at the two now Ex JONAS members.
"Do you really think this will work?" she asked. Joe and Kevin glanced at each other.
"I don't know Stella" Joe answered, trying hard not to cry.
"But its been a week and he hasn't come back, what else can we do" he added.
Everyone made mistakes. That was life, making mistakes. Theirs made their brother disappear though.
Music was their life, but so was their brother. It was a no brainer decision, they couldn't do it without him.
If only they knew that a week ago. If only they asked to help. Too bad you can't think back time. Everything always makes sense after the mistakes.
Macy shook her head. "Nick will come back Joe, he has to" she said.
The three nodded sadly and walked back to the dry car. They had to go to school, without him again.
Joe and Kevin shared another quick look. They never realized how much they both loved and depended on their kid brother.
The girls got in the back seat. Kevin closed the back on Macy and went to the drivers side and Joe touched his arm.
"This will work right?" he asked. Kevin saw the fear in his eyes and for a brief moment hugged his little brother.
"I don't know Joey" he answered. "Don't say that Kevin, we need Nicky, he's the leader, he's our president" Joe cried. Tears had finally fallen from the middle brothers eyes.
It had been a week. He wanted Nick back now.
Meanwhile at a diner.
"It's official the hot group JONAS has split up" he read in a steady voice.
He couldn't believe it was on paper, soon the world would see it.
"What did you two do?" he whispered. What did he do?
Nicholas Lucas sighed into his hot chocolate.
At first he just wanted a break. A break from his brothers, his life, everything.
He found a good hotel and stayed. By a few days later, he still couldn't leave.
Nick found a job two days after his disappearance. He had no doubt it was because of he was but he didn't care this time.
He wasn't Nick of JONAS anyway. That was the past. The paper now proved that.
He was Nicholas Jerry Lucas, an independent sixteen year old. A sixteen year old who was getting lonely.
He just couldn't turn around though. He couldn't face them, not after what happened. He couldn't face any of his family again.
Nick sighed and closed his eyes.
Flashback.
The trio walked in to find their mom holding the mail. Least part of it. She had a letter anyway.
The look on her face made them stop. "Your grades came today" Sandy Lucas began and Nick froze.
"Kevin and Joe you did better, both maintaining your B average" she went on.
"Nick….why are you so low? You have a C average" she said and he shrugged.
"Been busy…I'm passing though" he answered. He couldn't keep eye contact. He was ashamed and Sandy saw that.
"Your smart though Nicholas. You got A's easily before" she went on.
"What do you want from me? I'm trying the best I can!"
Nick winced as he heard himself. He screamed at his own mother. It only then got worse.
Nick quieted and bolted for the stairs. Joe and Kevin followed.
"Dude! When did you get all high and mighty?" Joe asked, impressed and ashamed of his brother.
"Shut up Joe! I don't need your stupid sarcasm" Nick yelled. "Nick…"
"Don't Kevin…I don't need either of your lectures now" Nick cut him off. He dove into his bed and sulked.
His mood never improved. By the time dinner was done he had snapped at his mom again, gave a death glare to Frankie and snapped at his dad when he tried to talk to him on his bed.
"Nicholas, what is going on with you?" Tom asked when Nick yelled at his mother.
"Nothing…I'm doing the best I can dad" he snapped and Tom left.
His family didn't speak to him after that when he went downstairs ten minutes later for juice.
By morning he was gone.
End Flashback.
Nick opened his eyes and looked at the headline again.
"It's official then, JONAS is done" he whispered. He then put his head in his arms on the table and sighed.
Shall I write more?
