A/N: I've been wondering, where do I put my "just Jonas" stories? I mean, without any Hannah Montana or Camp Rock? And warning, I really cried when I wrote this. But then again, a lot makes me cry…

Disclaimer- I own nothing but the plot
I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
Nate remembered the times he would push her away.
After his grandparents passed on, how he slammed the door in her face, yelling that he wanted to be alone.
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side
But finally, when that wish came true, it didn't seem as sweet. Each ticking of the clock, tore another hole in his already shattered heart. The teddy bear he had given her a couple months before at a carnival fair lay untouched. The one she would hold close every time she was with him, or when she just needed to sleep in his arms, had not been caressed since that day.
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
He remembered the sound of a sob tearing from her throat. Her perfect innocent eyes distorted with the hurt. But most of all, he remembered how she turned around and walked away.
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
He made one mistake, one broken heart, and one baby. And everything but the latter was hers. After he found out it was a prank, he called her again and again. It never worked.
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you
He needed to hear her laugh. To see her face. To kiss her lips. Everything he needed was what he couldn't have.
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
He could barely walk outside anymore. Every little aspect of the city would bring him back to one moment they had together. Every single detail was followed by a painful memory.
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do
She had brought her favorite sweatshirt with her that day and left it lying on his bed, where it still remained, crumpled in a heap. It was navy blue, with a cartoon penguin on the front. She always loved penguins. Nate reminisced as a tear slowly found its way down his cheek.
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
The tears flowed freely now.
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you
Nate couldn't live without her. He no longer felt the need to eat, drink, or sleep, he would just stare blankly out of his window, as if she would burst through his front door at any second.
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah
Gut-wrenching sobs escaped his mouth as Nate lost his will to live. He lost the will to keep fighting. With trembling fingers, he reached for a plastic bag and slowly pulled it over his head.
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you
In the paper the next day: 19 year-old man, Nathaniel Gray, former member of Rock Band, Connect Three, found suffocated in apartment building, with one mail envelope in his mailbox from 19 year-old citizen, Miley Rae Stewart. The letter in the envelope containing the three words, I love you.
