Chapter 1

Hello!! How've you all been? Here's a new story, since I don't really feel like starting To the Ends of the Earth (sequel to D.S.N.), so I've started this. A tragic little two-shot. Joe is 26 (not in the memory), Lilly, Miley, and Nick are 23, and Kevin is 28, along with Ashley. Also, I don't usually use bad language, but since this is a criminal talking, I had to. You'll get it when you read it. Oh, and just to tell you, I got this idea at around 2:00am. Enjoy!!

Disclaimer: I don't own the Jonas Brothers (sob!), any characters from Hannah Montana, Smallville, or CSI: Miami. Oh, and I don't own Starbucks either.

Prologue

Lilly and Joe were the picture perfect couple. They were both happy; they dated 6 years and are on their 2nd year of marriage. Lilly once got pregnant, but, long story short, she had a miscarriage. It was probably the worst day of their lives. Now, they've gotten over all that and have moved on.

Nick and Miley had just gotten engaged, and Miley wore the ring Nick gave her with as much pride as she had when she got the role of Hannah Montana 9 years ago. Nick had never loved anyone as much as he loved Miley, and Miley never stopped thinking of Nick when they were both 19 and starting to fall apart. Luckily, they realized their true feelings for each other.

Kevin and Ashley had a rock adventure, but made it through and had just finished their honeymoon. Kevin once was married to Aly, but soon got a divorce after they had their son together, Tyler, because he realized that he really didn't love her as much as he thought he did. She accepted and now Aly and Ashley are very close.

Joe and Lilly Jonas sat on their black living room couch, alone watching the new episode of Smallville on a Thursday night. The episode came on.

"What?! But, what, what!?" Joe cried, as his favorite TV show ended with a cliff hanger, until the next Thursday night. Lilly giggled at her husband's reaction.

"Hey, this is not funny Lilly!!" He complained. She sighed,

"Act your age hun," She replied, "Now come on, I'm tired," She said standing up and pulling him up from his sitting position.

"Fine," Joe muttered as he followed Lilly upstairs.

"Hey, Joe, do you remember when you proposed…?" Lilly asked once the two were settled in bed, Lilly holding her book, and Joe grabbing his note book. It was their before-bed-routine. Lilly always read a chapter or two of the book she was currently reading, and Joe always tried to come up with a song. He laughed,

"How could I forget? That was the best day of my life!" Lilly laughed as both thought back to the memories…

Joe honked the horn on the steering wheel twice. Lilly made her way out of her house, which she shared with her mom, whom had cancer, and walked toward her boyfriends car. He couldn't stop smiling. He sweared he had stopped breathing when he saw Lilly walk out of her house. She was wearing a colorful dress. It was blue, purple, and pink. There was some sort of funky pattern on it, that Joe couldn't quite specify, but it looked stunning on her. Lilly's almost-elbow length silky blond hair was down around her shoulders as it bounced up and down when she walked. Joe couldn't help but grin. He was the luckiest man in the world.

"Hey!" She said as she got into the car, planting a small kiss on Joe's cheek.

"Hey," He replied as she put her seatbelt on. He stared at her, not being able to let her beauty soak in.

"What?" She asked innocently as she noticed Joe was staring at her.

"Nothing," He replied shaking his head. She sighed,

"Where are we going?"

"You'll see. It's a surprise,"

"Aw, please Joe? Please, please, please?" She begged.

"Nu uh,"

"Fine, just drive," She replied facing the front window. After 15 minutes of begging they finally reached the beach.

"Joe, you told me to dress up just to come to the beach?" She whined.

"We're going some where after. Don't worry. Now, come on," He responded and undid his seatbelt walking around the car to open the door for Lilly. She got out when he opened the door and they walked in silence for a bit. After around two minutes of silence, Joe finally stopped.

"Lilly, I love you, okay?"

"I love you too Joe,"

"And I'm never, ever going to stop loving you,"

"I know Joe. Me neither. Now, what are you trying to get at here?" Joe bent down onto one knee.

"Lillian Abigail Truscott, these last 6 years, have been the best 6 years of my 24 and half years of living. So, please…Will you marry me?" Lilly's mouth dropped as she heard the best 4 words of her life (apart from 'I love you') and she felt the tears streaming down her face. It seemed like her voice was lost in her tears, so she nodded as fast as she could and put her left hand out. Joe slid the 2.5 karat ring on her 4th finger (2.5 because the main diamond is 2 karat and there are diamond rhinestone things along the ring). Joe stood up and embraced his now fiancé into a hug. She pulled away and leaned in for just about the most passionate kiss ever.

"I love you Joe," She whispered once her tears had stopped.

"I love you too Lilly," He replied.

Lilly sighed, as her daydream ended. Joe was staring at her. She put her book down and crawled onto his lap as he wrapped his arms around her and closed his eyes as he gave her a soft kiss on her blond hair.

The Jonas Brothers had the day off that day, so Joe was home lounging on the couch while Lilly was making their lunch. Nick and Miley came bursting through the door.

"Um, ever heard of knocking?" Joe complained. Nick and Miley both ignored.

"You guys, Kevin, Ashley, Aly, and Tyler were supposed to come over to our house at 11:00am and now its 12:15pm!!" Nick yelled.

"Chill! I'm sure they're just running late," Joe replied.

"Kevin, Ash, and Aly never run late! I'm worried. They said they were going to stop at Starbucks on their way to our house, but I'm sure it won't take an hour and 15 minutes!" Miley jumped in. That's when Lilly started getting worried.

"A-are you sure? Maybe…maybe there was…maybe there was an incident or something…" Lilly trailed off.

"Kevin and Ashley are responsible. They would've called by now," Miley objected. Lilly's cell phone rang.

"Okay, that was freaky," She said.

"But, why would they call you when they were supposed to come to see us?" Miley asked.

"Just answer the phone!" Joe exclaimed. Lilly picked up her cell phone when she saw 'Kevin' flash across the screen.

"Hello? Kevin?" She answered.

"This isn't Kevin, but I have him, and Tyler," Someone on the other line replied.

"W-who are you?! Where's Ashley and Aly?" Lilly asked trying to sound confident. Nick, Joe, and Miley all went over to Lilly.

"I don't know. I got Tyler, and then that bastard came looking for him," The man on the other line answered.

"Lilly!" Kevin called in the background.

"Shut up!" The mystery man yelled.

"I-what do you want?" Lilly asked cautiously as she put the phone on speaker and placed it on a free surface of the kitchen counter.

"You. I want you to come here, to the Starbucks on 32nd avenue, and I'll exchange you for Kevin and his stupid son," The man answered. Joe's jaw dropped.

"W-what?" Lilly asked.

"You heard me. Are you coming, or not?"

"I…"

"2 lives for one," He whispered.

"Oh…okay." She replied.

"Smart choice. Now get your ass over here. And don't bring anyone. 32nd avenue," The line went dead and Lilly's face turned pale.

"Why'd you agree to go?!" Joe cried.

"Joe, I have to," Lilly whispered as she walked towards the door with Miley, Nick, and Joe following her.

"Lilly, we should just call the cops," Nick suggested.

"No, we can't. Who knows what the people will do to Kevin and Tyler if the cops come with us?" Lilly replied. Joe sighed.

"Lilly, please!" Miley begged.

"No!! You guys, I have to go. I have to risk my life for Kevin and Tyler. I have to,"

"No, no you don't,"

"You can come, and say bye, or stay here," She said ignoring the fact that the mystery man said not to and walked out the door.

"O-okay." The whole ride there was silent. When the four got there, they saw a man in black who indicated for them to follow him. They followed him into a dark alley. He stopped and left. Another man came out.

"Why, hello…"

"What?! Larkin? Larkin from 10th grade? What are you doing here?"

"Ha! All those years of suffering from watching the six of you live your happy lives, I'm finally getting back at you! AND I told you not to bring anyone! Why are they here?!"

"I…I wanted to bring them. Where are Kevin and Tyler?" Lilly demanded.

"Bring'em out, Mark!" Out came Kevin and Tyler. Kevin had a black eye and Tyler looked scared to death. He saw Miley and ran to her.

"Come on blondie," The man said.

"Lilly, you can't do this," Joe whispered fighting back tears that were blurring his vision.

"I have to Joe," She whispered and gave him a hug. Probably their last, and gave him their last kiss.

"But…"

"I love you Joe,"

"I love you too Lilly," Now, both their faces were covered in tears. Lilly moved on to Nick, who gave her a tight hug, and moved on to Miley who was sobbing.

"You were the best friend anyone could ever have Lills," Miley said through her tears.

"I love you Miles," Lilly whispered.

"'Love you too Lills. You know, we never got to be sisters," She replied letting go. Lilly went on to Kevin who was looking down.

"This is entirely my fault," He muttered.

"No, it's not," Lilly started, "I chose to do this exchange. I'll miss you Kev. Keep out of trouble," She said and gave him a hug. She moved toward the man, but Joe stopped her, pulling her into one last hug. She sobbed into his chest.

"Hurry the hell up!!" The man barked. Lilly pulled away from the love of her life and whispered 'I love you' one more time, until she finally reached the man.

"Wait. Where's Ashley and Aly?"

"I don't know. All those Jonas' or once Jonas' were distracted, so it was the perfect chance to take that kid, and I knew he would come after him, and the girls stayed. Now, let's go," He roughly pulled on her arm and led her toward a white van that had just pulled up to the end of the alley.

"Goodbye, Lilly," Joe whispered letting the tears stream down his face.

"Goodbye, Joe," Lilly also whispered while being pulled away from her love. Miley burst into tears and Lilly did too as soon as the man shoved her into the white van. Lilly sobbed in the back scared of the journey ahead of her. This was it.

Miley, Nick, Joe, Kevin, and Tyler watched as one of the closest girls they've ever know disappeared into the unknown road ahead of them.

Oh, my gosh. That was, I think, the best thing I've ever written. A huge thanks to Queen of Reality for editing. Would you like the second part to this?? Will Lilly live? What's going to happen next? If yes, review please.
