Chapter 3
I ran back home and jumped into the shower before my mom woke up. My dad already left for the day, he works from 4 til 2. It didnt take me long to shower, and get dressed for school. As I was getting on the school bus, I couldnt get over the fact that I had met Joe Jonas today. I couldnt believe he lived next door to me. He definitely was much more handsome in person, but he also seemed more normal. I expected the Jonas' to be kind of snotty. I couldnt wait to get to know them better.
I walked into my cosmetology class and took a seat at my desk and started curling my hair. That was one thing I loved about my first perod class, I could just do my hair and makeup when I got here. I had long brunette hair that I loved to try new things with. The teacher started the morning off like usual, telling us how we could do whatever we wanted that day as long as it was productive. I just smiled and continued to curl my hair. I curled m last piece when I saw a familiar face walk into my classroom. I smiled and waved at Joe as he walked over to me.
"Hey. What are you doing here?"
He smiled slightly, and started rubbing the back of his neck. "I need a haircut. I was gonna see if someone could cut my hair, but now that I see that your here, Maybe you could cut my hair?"
I smiled at his nervousness, "Yeah, let me just tell my teacher and ill get you over to the shampoo station."
I walked over to my teacher and told her I had an outside client, and that he wanted a haircut. She nodded her head and went back to grading our booklets. I went and got my cape and shampoo stuff. I directed him over to the shampoo bowl. As the water was warming up, I got the cape situated around his neck. I was starting to wonder why everyone was so calm and quiet right now. Its not very often someone famous comes into small town Centreville. I layed his head back and started washing his hair, kind of freaking out alittle on the inside that I was touching joe jonas' hair.
"So what made you decide to move to little old Centreville?" I asked.
He sighed as I ran my fingers through his hair, and I smiled, "I actually moved here for my parents. They wanted to get the kids back into public school. Nick and Frankie were starting to get alittle to used to the fame so my parents thought it would be smarter to move them somewhere small."
I nodded my head as I dried his hair and sat him up. "That makes sense. Frankie seems alittle young anyways he doesnt need to get caught up in the hollywood drama. Hows Nick handling it all?" I directed him to my chair.
He sighed, "He seems to be acting like a typical teenager. Hes complaining about being in public school again and he doesnt like not being able to carry his emergency meds. But otherwise a normal teen." He laughed. He had such a beautiful laugh.
I chuckled at that, and grabbed my comb and started combing out his hair. "So how do you normally cut it, or how would you like it done?"
He shrugged, "I dont really care it is growing really fast so do what you want with it. Just can you make sure its out of my eyes?" I nodded my head at him and started trimming away. I had an idea of how I wanted it to look and I think it would look really good on him. I started humming away to one of the songs on the radio, Tattoos on this town. My best friend kryssi asked me if Joe if he cared if we turned it up. Which he said he didnt mind it. Kryssi walked over and turned it up and sat down next to us munching on some chips. I started sing along to the song as I started trimming the hair around his eyes. I smiled as kryssi started singing along with me. I asked her to grab her styling gel for me. I was just almost done, just had alittle bit of shaping and layering left. When Kryssi got back she recognized whos hair I was cutting, and tried containing her excitement. I just laughed at her, I was surprised how long it took for her to notice since we had just been talking about who we liked most the day before. I blow dryed his hair and ran my fingers through his hair and I heard him humming as I did this. I smiled and grabed Kryssi's gel and got some in my hands and started running it in through the front of his hair. As I wiped my hands, I messed with it alittle more and turned him towards the mirror. He smiled and loked over at me.
"I really like it. I like how its cut short on the sides but is long in the top. Thank you. How much do I owe you?" He asked, pulling out his wallet.
I shook my head, and said, "Don't worry its on me. Just promise not to sneak up on me again on my morning run." He laughed and nodded his head. He really does have a beautiful laugh.
"I promise. Maybe we could go for a run together?"
I smiled, "Yeah, Id like that very much. So, Ill see you later?"
"Yeah, ill leave you to your school stuff," he chuckled. He got up and looked at me, and then walked away. I smiled and started cleaning up.
Kryssi just stared at me smiling. I looked at her, "What?"
She just shrugged and said, "Oh nothing. When were you going to tell me you knew Joe Jonas?"
"I dont really know him. He just moved into the house next door with his family." I smiled. I handed her her gel back, and she just took it still smiling like a freaking goof. I shook my head. "What now?" I laughed.
She shook her head at me, "Sam I havent seen you smile this much since you and Alex broke up last year. And I saw how he was looking at you. Girl yall like each other. I could even tell you that he really likes you. I mean how did yall meet anyways, it must've been one hell of a meeting?"
I felt my face get hot and sat in my chair. "So I went running this morning like usual, and I felt like someone was following me and I glanced over my shoulder and I see this guy following me and so I ran faster and I realized he was keeping up with me. Well he grabbed my shoulder and I kinda punched him in the nose. I noticed it was him and I felt extremely bad. So we went back to his place and I got him an ice pack and I left that was it."
She looked at me shocked, and after what felt like forever she started cracking up laughing. I chuckled and hung my head, covering my face. I was so embarrassed and I just couldn't imagine my first time meeting a celebrity being any worse. I mean he was one of my biggest crushes of all time. I still listen to their music. I mean I felt like it was totally unreal.
After awhile of her still laughing at me, Kryssi finally settled down, and just looked at me. I pulled oout my sketch book, and started drawing one of th projects she wanted me to do. I was working on a piece for her little sister, pokemon. She really loved the old pokemon so I was working on get her some hand sketched photos. I looked over to Kryssi and she finally decided to say something.
"I just want you to know, that you have one hel of a way to get a guys attention. But seriously that guy seems to really be into you. And I saw the way you looked at him. I want you to be careful. I dont want to see you get hurt again. After Alex, it was really hard to get you out of it. I mean, ya know I love ya and youre my sister. Just be careful okay." She came over and gave me a hug.
I nodded my head. "I know. And I think you got this one wrong. There is no way a guy like joe would ever be into me. I wont get my hopes up."
I turned back to my work. I heard her say under her breath, "you are what every boy thinks of. Youll always be worth it."
I continued working on my artwork, and the bell rang just as I was almost done with the bulbasaur. I packed up my stuff and headed into my third period. I had biology. One class I really wasnt looking forward to, since I was ahead of the class. Being a senior I wanted to make sure I was ahead and got all my school work done. I did not want any excuse to not graduate. The sooner I graduated the sooner I could move out. I wasnt even paying attention when I walked into class who was sitting right next to my desk. I sat down and started getting my head phones out. When I looked up I noticed someone was trying to get my attention. It was Nick Jonas. Of course two Jonas' in one day. What are the olds.
I looked over at him, and said, "Hi im Sam. Whats up?"
He just smiled, "Hi im Nick. I was wondering if you could help me out I am trying to figure out where we are. I just started today. "
I smiled and nodded my head. I pulled out my notebook and started showing him where we were at. It didnt take very long. He seemed to get it all.
I looked up at him when I was done and told him, "If you need any help at ll I have no problem helping you out."
He nodded his head, "Thank you I greatly appreciate it. So you didnt seem very surprised to see me when I spoke to you. I was curious why, I mean its just you have one of my songs playing on you ipod so I know you know who I am." He chuckled. I just hung my head.
I was pretty ure I seemed like some huge fan now, which I didnt mind at all. I looked up at him and said, "I actually am not surprised. I ran into your brother this morning. Actually I kinda punched your brother this morning."At that he threw his head back laughing. I laughed myself. I had a feeling I wouldnt be living that one down with anyone anytime soon.
Once he settled down, he turned to me and said, "I have got to hear this story. Please tell me he did something stupid, and deserved it."
I sighed, " Actually, no he didnt. I went for a run and I thought someone was following me and when I realized someone was I ran harder, and joe caught up to me and put his hand on my shoulder and I punched him in the face. I felt so bad once I realized who it was."
He chuckled, "Yea, he deserved it. He shouldnt have snuck up on ya like that. But technically you did do the right thing. I remember when I was with Miley, she used to jump at the slightest touch, anything would scare her. But dont worry, us jonas' are built strong. He can take it."
I smile, "I appreciate that. But no I actually do love listening to yalls music, and to be honest, I figured yall deal with enough crazy fans, I didnt need to add to that pile."
He sighed, and said, "yeah the fans can get alittle crazy, but I wouldnt trade it for anything. Its nice knowing youve always got someone who cares, even when your down."
I nodded my head, I never really knew that feeling myself until I moved here and met Kryssi. She had become my best friend and I couldnt imagine my life without her.
The techer started the lesson right then and I put my headphones in. The rest of class flew by pretty quick. As the bell rang Nick asked me if I could show him where the nurses office was. I had no problem with that since I normally dont go to lunch anyways. I walked him over, told him goodbye and headed straight to my forth period, cyramics. One of my favorite classes ive ever taken. We were currently working on our last project. Which is why I skip lunch. I really wanted to see this done. We had to create a monster and incorborate things that we liked into it. I had created a pumpkin with bat wings. I was working on the last parts of it which were a clown nose, because I was terrified of them, and books. I loved coming into this class and getting my hands dirty. It was my favorite part of the day. Which usually means it ends pretty quickly. As the final bell rings I put my piece away and head out the door. I start heading towards the buses when I see Joe sitting on his car waving me over. I smiled and headed over there.
