So I got a review so you get an update! grrr stupid thing won't let me dedicate it to the person i was going to dedicate it to! -_-

Disclaimer: Yes of COURSE I own JONAS I also obtained the rights to iCarly so look out for the crossover episodes based on my crossover fic iJONAS… okay I don't so that's not going to happen. Be warned though if I ever got my hands on those shows iJONAS would be turned into episodes, Sam and Freddie would be together, Gibby would rule the world and Joe would finally kiss Stella (and macy and Kevin would get together along with Nick and Carly) that is all for my rambling!

*******************************************

The second time they kissed it was because he needed her…

It had been three weeks since the 'experiment' and they hadn't spoke of it since. Oh they'd thrown the odd flirty glances and Joe still drove her home every night just they'd never spoken of their kiss like it was some huge secret which to them it was everyone knew Joe used to like Stella and they thought he still did they also thought Kevin and Macy were a sure thing. So telling everyone they kissed wouldn't be the smartest idea.

The day it was mentioned was the day the boys walked in school. Well Nick and Kevin walked in Joe was being dragged in by his older and younger brother. Macy got a good look and saw his eyes were red and swollen he was paler than she'd ever seen him.

"Stella? Stella what's the matter with Joe?" Macy asked the blonde girl at her side.

"Huh? Oh him? Something about family emergency. I had to blow off my date with Timmy to look after Frankie" Stella said acting like missing a date with that idiot was the biggest tragedy since Romeo and Juliet.

Macy sighed Stella was acting so… so… blonde lately it was driving her nuts. She jumped up from her chair, dropping her hockey stick in the process, and running down to the three boys.

"Guys why are you dragging Joe?" She asked skidding to a halt in front of the trio.

"Cause if we don't he'll run home.. oh man I'm late for maths."

"Í'm late for English. Mace can you look after him?"

Macy nodded as the two ran in different directions. Thanking God she didn't have a lesson yet Macy grabbed Joe's wrist and dragged him into an empty class room.

"Sit." She ordered pointing at a desk.

Joe walked dejectedly to the desk dropping down onto the chair.

Macy closed the door and walked over to the boy usually so full of life.

"Joe?" She whispered pulling out a chair so he was looking right at her. "Joe? What is it?"

And that's when Joe Lucas world famous rockstar broke down he wrapped his arms tightly around her and sobbed into her shoulder.

Macy was shocked she'd never seen him like this scratch that she'd never seen ANYONE like this.

"Joe." She whispered again rubbing soothing circles on his back trying to calm him down. "Joe what's happened I wanna help."

"Y-You can't help Macy." Joe muttered against her neck his breath tickled but she ignored the butterflies it caused.

"Why not?"

"Because unless you can fix people who've had a heart attack you can't do much." Joe whispered and Macy felt him bury his face back into her shoulder.

"What do you mean?"

"My mum she… she had a stress induced heart attack Mace. And and I don't think she's getting any better sure Kevin and Nick and Dad tell me she is b-but when I see her she's so pale and weak and… broken."

And Macy heart broke for the sobbing boy in her arms. She'd felt a loss like that. You never get over loosing your mother she should know. But Joe hadn't lost his yet…

"Joe being negative like this won't help" She whispered pressing her lips against his cheek it tasted bitterly of tears.

"You try being positive while you're loosing your mother!" Joe told her angrily unwrapping his arms from around her to glare through eyes still sparkling with unshed tears.

"I have done and I continue to Joe! You think you're the only person who's lost or is losing their mother? Well guess what? You aren't! You think you know how hard it is to stay smiling when you're around people when all you want is to curl up in your mothers arms and cry but knowing that you can't because when you get home all you've got is a father that replaced your mother with a newer model three months after she died? And a step mother who doesn't give a damn about you? Of course not cause when you get home you have three brothers who love you, you have a father who'd do anything for you guys and would never replace your mother and you've got a billion fans who'd jump in front of a bullet for you. So grow up Joseph you're mother's going to be fine spare a thought for the poor souls who's mothers are gone." Macy had been shouting at him now she was standing with her back pressed against the door fighting back the tears that she'd hid so well for the past years.

"Macy I-I'm sorry I didn't know." Joe whispered walking towards her.

"Of course you didn't no-one does not even Stella." Macy whispered as Joe closed the small distance that had been left he wrapped his arms around her again but not to seek comfort but to give it.

"Macy why didn't you tell anyone?" Joe asked as Macy snuggled into his chest.

"Because I didn't want pity." She whispered her voice muffled.

"Mace there's a difference between pity and comfort." Joe whispered into her ear

"What?" Macy asked looking at him.

"If I pitied you I would be telling you not to cry but I want to comfort you so I think I should tell you it's okay to cry Mace."

That's all Macy needed she buried her head into his chest again sobbing her heart out onto his shirt.

Joe didn't care that his shirt was being ruined as he hugged her closer as he sat on a chair he pulled her onto his lap.

"I'm sorry Mace. I'm so so sorry" He whispered kissing her cheeks her nose her forehead. Macy tired of him dancing around she grabbed his hair and pulled his lips onto hers.

When they pulled apart Macy sniffled.

"Thanks Joe. I needed some one to do that." She whispered.

"No one's ever told you it's okay to cry?"

"Like I said dad is preoccupied with her and she doesn't care about me. Joe you're the only person I really trust. Can I trust you not to hurt me like ever other person in the world?"

"I'll never hurt you Mace. Promise you'll look after my heart?"

"Why?"

"Cause you stole it."

and because she needed him as well.

*******************************************

I think Joe's going to end all of these chapters with an incredibly cheesy (to me any way) line.

Well what did you think? This was actually two chapters in one. It was going to be 'the second time he kissed her it was because he needed her…' and the third was going to be 'the third time they kissed was because she needed him…' but I saw a chance to fit them together and I took it 

Hope you liked it. That's all for now.
