A Place In This World

Chapter One

I sat down in the chair my teacher pointed out for me, next to my somewhat friends, in my AP World History class, I was still getting used to the place, I had just transferred a few weeks ago as of some issues in my last school. Now, let me introduce myself, my name is Alisha Jonas. Yes, as in the Jonas Brothers, Jonas. They're my brothers, whoopee! Note the sarcasm. Now don't get me wrong, I love them but, still, anyone who has brothers will understand, especially now I'm 15. I have long thick, curly hair, of a similar colour to that of my family, it was the trademark hair of a Jonas. Now, for those of you who have no life, and do not know of the Jonas Brothers, I will give you some pointers.

I am the only daughter of Denise and Paul Jonas, sister to Kevin, 23, and his wife Danielle, also 23, Joe, 21 and Nick, 18. All three brothers were very over protective, which officially means I have never been able to have a boyfriend, apparently not until I'm 17. Great, thanks guys. I also have a little brother, Frankie who's 10. Now, this is the cool part, Nick, Joe and Kevin are all in a famous band called The Jonas Brothers.

So, being related to them automatically made famous to, which was pretty cool I guess. Though, I do often get issues of stalking, which means I have to have someone with me everywhere I go. My parents have even talked about a personal body guard as I can be used as a hostage if kidnapped. Freaky stuff. I also write most of their songs, along with Nick, but I have a knack for it. Secretly, they don't know I write them for myself to, no one but Nick knows I like singing, but he's never actually heard me sing. Just to let you know, people at my school didn't know who I was, they thought my surname Jones, not Jonas, and I wanted my identity to stay that way.

As the bell rang to signal the end of lessons, I jumped out my seat and ran to my locker. Placing my books in it and grabbing the ones I needed for homework, I shut it with force before spinning round and smacked into someone. I looked up to see Caroline Sparks, the school slut, I mean head cheerleader. She hates me.

"You freak! Watch were you are going!" She hissed at me, bending down to pick up the papers she dropped.

Having been raised to help anyone, I bend down also and helped, when I came across a paper I wasn't surprised to see.

"You like the Jonas Brothers?" I asked, stifling my smile.

"I do, and I will meet Joe one day and he will fall in love with me." She stated proudly, as though it was guaranteed. I snorted with laughter, covering it up as a cough.

"Think it's funny do you?" She remarked at me. "Urmm.. No I..." I began.

"At least I know they would like me. They would either ignore you or take pity on you, I mean who could actually like someone who is as big a loser as you?" She drawled. I felt like I'd been slapped in the face.

I abruptly turned on my heel and stalked out the door, tears streaming down my face as I walked to where my brothers were to pick me up. Approaching the car I hurriedly wiped as many tears of my face as I could, though I knew you could tell I had been crying. Nick and Joe gave me questioning looks as I climbed into the back seat, next to Nick. Looks I ignored. To say the beginning of the ride home was awkward would be an understatement. About 5 minutes in to the drive I plucked up the courage to speak.

"Do.. do you guys like me?" I asked quietly. Both my brothers looked at me incredulously.

"What?" Nick breathed from next to me. "Do you actually like me or do you take pity on me?" I repeated.

"Ali of course we like you, we love you, your our baby sister, we couldn't love anyone more." Nick insisted.

"Did someone at school say something?" Joe asked. I sat in my seat looking down on my lap when I heard Nick begin to speak.

"Alisha, has that happened before?" Yes. I thought. "No." I heard my mouth say.

Nick sighed in frustration. "If it does, we want you to tell us Leesh, I mean, we're your brothers."

Joe's voice came from the front. "At any rate tell Nick." He continued.

Joe knew that me and Nick were closer than I was to any of my other brothers. But Joe and Kevin didn't care, they understood that me and Nick had a connection, they were just as protective. I watched as a smirk made its way on to my older brothers faces.

"What?" I asked, eyes narrowed. "There's a surprise for you when we get home." Nick smirked at me. I growled under my breath.

When Joe pulled in to the drive of our home, I flung myself out of the back seat and to the front door, yelling for my mum as I did so.

"MUM! Nick and Joe are being mean to me again! They said I'm adopted!"

At that point said brothers stumbled through the door holding on to each other for support as they laughed at me.

"DUDES! Seriously you know you shouldn't say that stuff to her! You know how sensitive she is!" Came a feminine voice from behind me, followed by the sound of my brothers being hit on the back of the head. I smiled in satisfaction, turning round to look at them.

"If you knew my surprise was Tammy then you should have known not to annoy me." I smirked at them, raising my eyebrow at the grinning girl stood in front of me.

Tammy was my best friend. Always has, always will be. She knew me before my bro's were famous and didn't care in the slightest. This is the first time I've seen her in a while since we had to move from New Jersey to L.A for the boys. Her shoulder length curly auburn hair bounced as she ran towards me and her hazel eyes, that were similar to my brothers, shone with happiness as she tackled me to the ground.

"ALI!" She screamed into my ear. "TAM! What are you doing here!" She climbed off me, grinning.

"I live here, duh." I scrunched my eyes in confusion. Tammy laughed at my facial expression and helped me out.

"My dad got a promotion and we had to move to L.A, we're your new next door neighbours." She exclaimed.

"NO WAY!" I screamed, my brothers covered their ears. "Yepp, and I get to go to your high school to."

My unusual midnight blue eyes watered and I flung my arms around her, sobbing into her shoulder. Nick and Joe's eyes widened and ran to us on the floor.

"Leesh? Ali, sweetie what's wrong?" They asked frantically. A new voice joined us.

"Guy's calm down, she's just happy to see Tammy, they've been separated for a while." Kevin, my oldest brother, replied for me.

I laughed as I climbed of her, grabbing her hand, I pulled her upstairs to my room and shut the door behind me. We sat in silence for a while. Tammy broke it.

"Do they know?" She questioned. I shook my head knowing what she meant. "Why haven't you told them?" She implored.

"They will be disappointed." I mumbled, ashamed. "Ali, you can't not tell them, they have to know..."

"I KNOW, Okay?" I burst out. "I can't, Tammy, please understand." I whispered, broken.

Tammy sighed. "Well, what about the singing thing?" She beamed at me. I just couldn't help laugh at her face.

"Well, they don't know, but the high school is doing a production of Camp Rock, ironically, and I'm gunna try out, then if I get it, I'm gunna surprise them." She squealed.

"Oh! I'm gunna try out for Caitlyn then!" She giggled. "They will hate whoever is Shane."

I giggled along with her. They would skin alive the boy who would play Mitchie's love interest. It only took me and Tammy two hours to catch up on everything I had missed back home.

Soon there was a knock on my door and Kevin poked his head round it. Me and Tammy shared a look before bursting into fits of laughter.

"We... just remembered... the time when... you fell... down that well!" I gasped out between laughs. Kevin turned bright red.

"What's this about a well?" Danielle or Dani, as she like to be called, asked from behind my older brother. She was Kevin's wife since this year. I grinned slyly at Kev.

"I'll tell you later Dani." I promised. Kevin cleared his throat obnoxiously.

"Awww, don't worry Kevo, I'm sure she won't love you any less once she hears." I grinned.

"Anyway, Mum says tea is ready." He told us. We nodded acknowledging him, as he shut the door.

A few minutes later me and Tammy bounded down the stairs and joined my family for dinner, when the topic of Kevin's, urm, incident was brought up by Dani.

"You told her?" Joe exclaimed. Him and Nick had began laughing the moment the words Kevin and well were put in the same sentence.

"No, but I will now. Well, about ten years ago, me, Joe, Kev and Nick decided to go and play hide and seek in this creek by our house in New Jersey. So we made Joe count and the rest of us ran off to hide. About an hour later, Joe found me and told me Kevin has gone missing, so we got our parents we all started to look for him. About 3 hours later we found him. Whilst looking for somewhere to hide, he had tripped, rolled a mile down a hill and ended up stuck in an abandoned well!" I chortled.

All us kids had tears streaming down our faces, even Frankie, who hadn't actually been alive at the time, and Dani was just as bad. My parents were even trying to hide smiles. It may not sound that funny, but it was fricking hilarious!

"But then, when we got to him he had thought he was gunna be stuck there forever and we would just leave him to die. Of course he forgot his cell could actually ring people and had been playing pac man on it the entire time!" I screeched.

We all burst out laughing again. "And that was just one of the brainless things old Kev has done." Concluded Nick.

"Okay." My mom hushed us. "Alisha and Kevin, dishes." Me and Kev groaned but got up and grabbed the plates of my family. Tammy came up and hugged me before she left for home.

Me and Kevin had a routine, he would wash and I would dry. Whilst I was drying I began humming on a new tune that had got stuck in my head recently. Kevin looked at me, intrigued.

"Something new?" He questioned. I nodded happily. "I think it's gunna be my best yet!"

"When can we hear it?" He asked. I frowned. "Not sure yet, I've got the tune, but the words don't seem to fit." Kev patted my shoulder as we walked out the kitchen and to the family room.

"I'm sure it'll be great, they always are." He told me. Hugging my oldest brother I looked up at him appreciatively. "Thanks, Kevin."

"Nothing makes sense! Nothing makes sense anymore! Nothing is right, nothing is right when you're gone!" I sang loudly, dancing round my room as I got ready for bed.

Nick's song, Who I Am, blaring from my speakers. I pulled on one of said brothers jumpers before dancing out my room to say good night to my family and get Frankie so I could put him to bed, when I crashed into one of my family. Looking down I screamed in his face.

"Nicky!" Nick looked at me sceptically. "ALI?" He yelled back.

"I love your music. Who I Am is pure genius." He laughed as he helped pull me up. "Well, the person who wrote it isn't. She's a loser."

I stuck my tongue out at him as I walked away from him. "Real mature there Leesh!" His voice yelled after me.

"NIGHT!" I screamed as I jumped in to the lounge. My family stared at me incredulously before they got up and hugged me one at a time. I grabbed Frank's hand, pulling him with me as I went up the stairs.

"Come on Frankster, time for bed." Frankie groaned but complied. When I eventually fell on to my bed after brushing my teeth, pulling the covers up around me, I smiled to myself. Things were starting to look up.
