I don't own NBB.

Episode 2: "Wolff Brothers Cry Wolf"


Nat and Alex are in the bathroom. Nat is attempting to fake cry for their music video "Sometimes I'll be There."


"Nat what are you doing?" Alex asks while walking into the bathroom seeing his brother trying to fake cry.

"I'm trying to fake cry. The director wants me to do it at the end of the video," Nat says.

"Well it looks like your laughing," Alex says bursting his brother's bubble.

"It does?" The older brother asks dissapointed.

"Yeah, your scrunching up you face in a smiley way." His little brother said carefully not to hurt his brother's feelings.

"Whatever, I bet you can't do it." Nat said defensively.

"I can too, but wait I want to show you something first," Alex said excitedly before going up to the mirror and smiling. "See I finally perfected my smile, not to much, not to little, just right." Alex said.

"It's good, now lets see you cry." Nat said boredly and wanting to learn to cry.

"It's good?" Alex said unbelievingly. "That's all you can say? It's a lot better than your stupid rock star look." He added.

"Hey, my rock star look isn't stupid, the girls love it." Nat said while doing his rock star moves.

"You mean Ally likes your rock star look." Alex smiled knowingly to his now blushing older brother.

"Shut up and show me how you cry." Nat said wanting to change the subject.

"Fine but first lets make a bet." Alex said mischiviously.

"What kind of bet?" Nat asked hesitantly.

"That I can get whatever I want by fake crying, 10 bucks plus I get to use your electric pencil sharpener whenever I want." Alex said wanting Nat to take the bait.

"Fine." Nat said. Then out of nowhere Alex starts crying and Nat is impressed. Then later that night Nat is kept up by the sound of Alex sharpening pencils on his electric pencil sharpener.


After A full day of shooting and re-shooting everyone is getting frustrated. "Cry now, come on cry!" Yelled the strange director from Transilvania at Nat.

"I can't okay! I just can't!" Yelled Nat storming off the set to his dressing room after failing to cry again.

"I will never win my obilisk award without a crying genie!" The forgien director whined to cooper who was just as frustrated as him. That was until he got a briliant plan.

COOPER POV (THE NEXT DAY)

"Alright everyone gather around I have an announcement to make." I said smiling at the thought of my genius idea coming to action.

"Whats up cooper?" Asked quassim as everyone came to see what was going on. Thomas on the other hand was smiling like an idiot about what was about to happen.

"Due to some certain circumstances out arabian princess will now be played by Ally Batuello." I explained while everyone clapped as Ally walked up to me smiling. Nat on the other hand did a spit take with the water he was drinking at the time. Wow! You should have seen Nat's face when Ally walked in. It was halarious! Maybe this will help him express his feelings to her. After everyone went back to work Nat pulled me to the side. "Hey Nat whats up?" I asked a very shocked Nat.

NAT POV

"Don't whats up me man, whats Ally doing here?" I asked cooper freaking out. Of course I love Ally and like hanging out with her but not now when I'm acting like an idiot because I can't cry. I don't want her to think that I'm insensitive.

"Didn't you listen, she's the new arabian princess in the video." Said cooper like it was nothing.

"Dude, why? I said still freaking out and causing a scene.

"Nat, calm down it just happened that way and Ally volunteered to step in," cooper said trying to calm me down.

"Really, Ally volunteered?" I asked kind of happy. Ally really volunteered to be my princess? I wonder if this means that she likes me. Then I snapped back to reality and got freaked out again by the thought of my crush seeing me fail at acting. "What about Rosalina? Why did she back out?" I asked frantically trying to find a way out.

"Nat, calm down. Everything is going to be fine. I thought that you would be happy to have Ally playing your love interest in the video," cooper said while walking away probably annoyed with me. He's right I should be happy. I mean the girl of my dreams is playing the part of my princess.

ALLY POV

OMG! This is so exciting! I am going to be in a NBB music video. Although I do think that its weird that Rosalina just suddenly dropped out and cooper thought to call me for the part. Hmm . . . Oh well. I love my arabian princess outfit, its like Rosalina's except mine is red. After I got my hair and make up done I headed down to the set. Once there I saw Nat in his genie costume and waved. He looked so cute.

NAT POV

I was on set in my very green genie outfit when I saw Ally walk in. I swear I think my jaw hit the floor. She was in this red gypsy outfit that showed her stomach with gold make up that complimented her hair and made her blue eyes stand out. I have got to remember to thank cooper later. "Hey Nat," Ally said snapping me out of my trance.

"Hey Ally, you look amazing," I said nervously.

"Thanks, I'm really excited to be in one of your videos," she said. Before I could reply the creepy neck biter director came in to give us directions. Where is he from anyways?

ALLY POV

"Okay kiddies . . . whay are you so green?" The scary director asked while looking at Nat's clothes. Me and Nat laughed a little at the director while he complained to the costume lady. We stopped laughing when the director gave us a look then he spoke to the lady. "Do you think that the beautiful princess would be in love with only a genie head?" he said.

"That would be creepy," Ally said.

I looked at her with fake hurt and said, "You would dump me for a little problem like that." She nodded "But I'm a genie. I could grant you wishes, wish for me a body," I said to her playing along.

"Nah, I'll save those wishes for something more important," her angelic voice laughed. Just then the director came to take me away from my princess to change.

"Your very cold princess, you better watch out or that genie head won't grant you any wishes at all," I said befor leaving. As I walked down to wardrobe I thought about what just happened. Usually I'm so nervous around Ally but this time I was cool and made her laugh. I love her laugh, I just hope that I get to make her laugh a lot mor times.

THE NEXT DAY . . . ROSALINA POV

I was walking down the hall of the producing studio with Ally when we saw Nat walking in out direction. Ally saw him coming and instantly went to fix her hair and I rolled my eyes. "Hey Nat," I said.

"Hi," Ally said shyly.

"Hey, I haven't seen you with your with your arabian princess thing in awhile," he said to Ally.

"Yeah, I haven't seen you in your genie costume for awhile," she said. Then there were moments of silence. You could feel the awkwardness in the air. A few more quiet moments. Someone please say something! "Oh Nat I forgot to tell you earlier but I really like this song we're doing, its so mysterious and emotional," Ally said to Nat who was listening to her every word.

"Mysterious, emotional," muttered Nat. "I wrote it when I was bored in history class." At that answer I face palmed myself. That was not the right thing to say.

"Okay well I guess I'll see you later," Ally said before going into the wardrobe department room. I gave Nat a look of 'are you crazy' before following her. Right before I closed the door I heard Nat call himself stupid and I quietly laughed.

NAT POV

Studid, Stupid, Stupid! "Stupid! Why did you say that?" I yelled at no one in particular. This is just great. I blew it.

"Whats wrong Nat?" Cooper asked me.

"Whats wrong? I'm not wearing my costume thats whats wrong. Whenever I'm in my costume I say the right things to Ally, when I'm not I don't say the right things its as simple as that," I walked to my dressing room as I ranted to Cooper.

"What did you say?" He asked.

"I told her wrote my song when I was bored in class. So now she thinks that I wrote that song without any feelings and that I'm insensitive. I mean I'm a deep guy right?" I asked.

"Yeah, your deep," was Cooper's simple relpy.

"Girls like deep guys," I said.

"Its true," he added.

"Alex is a deep guy," I remembered our bet and how I now owe the little liar 30 bucks.

"Alex?" Cooper said not believing what I just said.

"Yeah, if Ally told him that his song was mysterious and emotional he'd cry," I said kind of angry about how Alex gets what he wants by fake crying. "Okay, now I have my costume on so I can talk to Ally without making a fool of myself. Check to see if she's coming," I said fixing the tuban on my head.

"She's coming," Cooper said. I rushed out of the room hoping that I wouldn't blow it again.

ALLY POV

As I walked down the hall to find the guys I saw Nat walk out of his dressing room . . . with his costume on? "All hail the arabian princess," Nat said to me.

I giggled and said, "Are we supposed to be in costume yet?" To tell you the truth I was kind of confused.

"Uh, No, I was just going around and granting wishes and talking about some deep things like my song," He said. Is it just me or does he seem a little nervous.

"Your song?" I asked keeping the conversation going. I really enjoy talking to Nat. While talking about the song I think he started laughing. "Are you laughing?" I asked laughing a little myself.

"Um Yeah," he said.

ALLY POV

Reading scripts are kind of boring. Okay I am totally bored. At least the orange sodas are good. As I was reading the script and drinking my soda while leaning against the wall I saw Nat and Cooper out of the corner of my eye. When I went to take a sip of my soda I thought I saw Nat picking his nose! No, no, no I was just seeing things right? "Nats not a nose picker," I reassured myself. Oh man! After almost doing a spit take I got some soda on my script. Oh well, reading this thing was boring anyways.

COOPER POV

After Nat tried to cry by eating hot sauce he actually started choking instead so the paramedics had to come and pump his stomach. It was really gross. Anyways he came back in and Ally instantly rushed to his side. She obviously likes him. I don't know how Nat doesn't see it. "Nat, are you okay?" Ally asked worryingly.

"I'm fine," Nat assured her. I walked off after that to find the director so we can finish shooting.

DAVID POV

Oh my gosh! That was wicked cool. The paramedics had to come and pump Nat's stomach! It wasn't cool for Ally though. She looked really worried about Nat. She so likes him. Once Nat came back in me, Thomas, and Quassim ran to him. "Dude, that was so cool seeing the E.R people pump you stomach. It was rally gross," Thomas said excitedly.

"Yeah, I bet it's going to be in all the papers tomorrow," I said joining in with Thomas.

"Can we just forget it!" Nat snapped and walked away. Whats his problem? It probably has something to do with Ally. While the guys and me along with Ally and Rosalina were talking we suddenly heard Nat yell, "I was not picking my nose!" Well, that was random and embarrassing. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Ally blush and look down at her feet. Okay . . .

ALEX POV

Man, I can't believe how worked up Nat is this week. He's really freaked out about how I get what I want by crying. Acting tears baby, gotta love them. "Okay, people time for big wedding of beautiful princess and evil sultan. Think obelisk people. Wardrobe, fix that green shirt," our weirdo director said. Oh now I can fool Ally and that will really get Nat mad. Plus it will get me another 10 bucks.

NAT POV

I can not believe this! I can't believe he did that! How is he doing that? Alex, out of the blue during rehearsal started crying and Ally along with the rest of the band went to comfort him. How is Alex crying? I just don't get it and don't get me started on Ally. Alex knew that it would drive me crazy if Ally went along with it. On top of that I just lost 10 more dollars. Arrg!

ALLY POV

Once the song was done being shot it was time for Nat's big crying scene. I honestly don't get how they expect Nat to just start crying randomly. I mean I guess its possible but it seems really hard. While I was lost in my thoughts and my carrot sticks I was eating I heard Nat yell cut. Whats that about? He seems to be really stressed out lately. I hope he's okay. "I'm sorry okay, I'm sorry guys. I know you wanted to win your obelisk for this one but I can't okay. I can't cry. I'm not deep and I have no talent!" Nat yelled acting very stressed. Awww, all I want to do now is give him a hug. 'Cut it out Ally, he doesn't like you like that.' I told myself.

NAT POV

After going on my little rampage the director came up to me. "Of course you have no talent," Harsh. "That is why I bring in acting tears," he finished.

"Acting tears?" I asked curious. Then he started talking about the old country and how acting tears work. It's actually pretty amazing. Once he got the bottle and tried putting some in my eyes he found the bottle empty and started complaining.

"I'm sorry sir, Alex has been borrowing them," the costume lady said. Wait! Alex has been what? He's been cheating his whole! I'm gonna kill him!

ALLY POV

I watched wide eyed as I saw Nat chasing Alex all around the set. What is going on? I am so confused right now, unlike guys who were just laughing their butts off. Boys ugh! Then just as I turned back to watch Nat and Alex, Alex dropped the cement grapes on Nat's foot. That's got to hurt. In the end the director got the tears he wanted so all is well.

NAT POV

Later that day I sat in our lounge room at the studio icing my foot. Why you may ask? It's because my idiot lying brother dropped cement grapes on my foot! I'll get him later for that. Then I heard a sound and turned to see Ally come in and sit by me on the couch. "Hi Nat, is your foot okay? It looked like it really hurt," she said. I love how she's so caring. It's just one more thing to love about her.

"Yeah, it's okay now," I said to her while looking into her beautiful blue eyes.

"That's good. I just wanted to let you know that I think that your a deep, sensitive guy and that you have a lot of talent," she said smiling at me. After a moment of silence she got up and left, leaving me to process what she just said. After it got through my head I just smiled. She will always be my princess.
