Chapter 3: There Might be More Than You and Me, There Might be More than You Can See..

The next afternoon, Joe had to stay at the school to do an assignment with a group from his English class, and I decided not to go home because I had minimal homework again obviously, come on, the second day of the semester is the biggest joke next to the first day of the semester.

I decided to hang out with Nick, since his offer from the night before to be friends had made me feel a little sorry for him, I knew being new must have been hard for him, and it didn't seem like he'd made too many friends yet. After finishing my worksheet that I swear I could have completed in grade five, I watched Nick finnish up his.

I was laying on Nick's bed as he sat beside me doing his homework chewing on his pen cap, he looked irresistible when he concentrated. What the hell Rae? Don't think like that it's creepy.

I laughed at his face expression causing him to look up from his algebra.

"What?" He asked, smiling back at me.

"Your face."

"Oh thanks, Rae." He looked playfully hurt.

"No, the expression on your face actually, you look pretty confused." I added

"Yeah well, Algebra to me is like trying to understand someone speaking German, It's pretty hopeless and I have no idea why I'm even trying.

"Well good luck with that." I chuckled

He turned back to-wards his text book and began concentrating again.
My fascination wasn't such a mystery anymore and I was glad I was getting to know him. I laughed out loud again, this time because of my thoughts. Why did I refer to him in my head as my fascination?

"What? I can't help it that my face looks like that when I'm trying to do algebra! It's a really messed up concept." He whined.

"No, that's not what I'm laughing at this time. I informed him.

"Well what are you laughing at?"

"I don't really want to say, it's more like an inside joke with me and my mind." I informed him.

"Just tell me."

"Alright, I was laughing because in my head I like to refer to you as my fascination and I just realized how ridiculous that sounds." I looked up at him and laughed.

"What? Why?"

"Okay, well, the first time I saw you in class I didn't know anything about you, you seemed very mysterious. I wanted to figure out who you were, and what you were all about, it bugged me not knowing, basically you fascinated me. Hence my fascination."

"Wow Rae, I'm not going to lie thats a bit creepy," he laughed at me, "but I guess in a small school where you know everyone it's normal to want to figure out the new kid."

"Of course." I laughed, and he just stared for a while.

"What?" I was wondering about the look I was getting, it looked as though Nick was half amused yet his gaze was growing intense, and it confused the hell out of me.

"So I fascinate you huh?" He moved over top of me on the bed and our faces were just inches apart, lets just say this position was exciting my senses.

"Ohh-well-uh-you did, but I think I'm starting to figure you out." Why did I always have to stutter when he got close to me? Wow learn to speak Rae.

"Ohh really?" I could feel his breath against my face, as he inched closer, his arms supporting himself over my body. " I think there are a lot of things about me that you don't know." His voice was low and soft.

"Ohh like what Jonas." I couldn't help but call him that it was a habit for Joe that I was slowly developing for Nick too.

Instead of a verbal reply, his lips connected with mine pulling at the bottom lip then at the top, making his way past my teeth, the kiss was long and hard and full of passion, and oh-soo-good. My hands tangled into his curly dark locks, and his hand wandered around the small of my back.

"Hey Nick, so I guess we're not doing that project anymore, because Matt forgot the camera, I can't believ--

Ohh, sorry." I looked up and Joe was already gone but I had heard his tone of voice, he was embarrassed and shocked at what he had just witnessed, and I felt awful. I didn't even hear him come in, and by the time Nick and I jumped apart it was too late, Joe had obviously already seen us.

I looked over at nick and without even thinking jumped off the bed to go after Joe. He was my best friend, and I needed to talk to him about this, even if I knew it shouldn't matter to him, I owed him at least an explanation. I found him sitting on his bed, and immediately sat down beside him.

"Joe, I'm really sorry about that." I didn't really know what else to say to him because I'm sure the awkwardness of his brother and I making out on his bed was pretty heavy.

"Why? It's fine Rae don't worry about it." He looked over at me and surprisingly gave me a small smile.

"Are you sure?" I questioned raising an eyebrow at him. "Because I know if I was in your position that would have been a pretty awkward moment, and I might even have been mad seeing as it's my brother and all."

"Of course I'm not mad at you Rae, as long as your happy nothing else matters." Leaning over he grabbed me in a warm hug, leaving me in disbelief of how amazing my best friend was. Any one else might have a problem with the fact that their best friend was rolling around on a bed with their brother showing affections previously unannounced, but Joe would of course find the positive side to the situation, and make sure I didn't feel like shit about it. God I loved him.

"Ohkay well I should probably go talk to Nick, because to be honest with you I don't really know whats going on with us." I confessed while getting up and walking to-wards the door.

"Yeah sure, I think I'm going to get to bed though." He gave another warm smile as I walked out of the door frame leaving him alone in his room to ponder his thoughts, and I was pretty sure I knew what the dominating portion of those thoughts were.
