Okay so this chapter is dedicated to my first reviewer for this story tabithascobra. I hope this clears everything up. Christina is thinking about all this as she waits for Nate to get back to the house.

Okay so since I'm in school and volleyball practice for endless hours, i have a lot of time to think about where I want this to go. And I have decided to make this one and possibly another chapter flashbacks, to clear things up and to answer any questions you may have.

Also, If I called Nate Nick at one point, it's because this was originally a regular Jonas fic. I had to go back and change all Names when I was in school. So if I miss one, don't worry about anymore.

ok now onto the story...

August 9, 9 years ago:

"Happy Birthday" a seven year old Nate said to a now seven year old Christina.

"Thank You. What's your name?"

"Nate"

"I'm Christina. You wanna go over on the swing?"

"sure"

Christina and her family was new to the neighborhood and was now living next door to the Grey family. Both mothers became fast friends and Carmen (Christina's mom) invited the Grey's over for Christina's seventh birthday so all the kids could meet.

"So how old are you Nate?" Christina asked.

"I'm seven"

"We're the same age"

"But my birthday was first"

"So, it doesn't matter"
"Yes it does"
"No, it doesn't"

"Yes it-" They were both stopped by a 10 year old Shane throwing water balloons at them. Christina and Nate looked at each other and started chasing Shane around the backyard, causing everyone to laugh.

That night, instead of staying in the house after cake and everything, Nate and Christina decided to sit outside in the grass.

"Can I call you Natey?" Christina asked, completely random.

"why?"

"Because everyone calls you Nate. I don't want to be like everyone else" she says. Nate thinks for a second.


"Ok, but only if I can call you Tin" he says. Christina looked confused.

"Why would you call me Tin? It doesn't even sound close to my name" she says.

"Because I want to be different. Everyone calls you Chrissy or Tina. I want to call you something that no one else does. And, tin is in your name" he says, not looking at her, but at the sky. Christina thought about it.

"On one condition" she says.

"what?" Nate asked.

"You become my best friend" she says. Nate smiles.

"deal" he says.

November 12, 4 years ago:

"Natey you can't just take my soda from me and run. You're gonna shake it up" A laughing twelve year old Christina said while chasing Nate down the street on their way to school. Nate was faster than her but he tripped and dropped the soda as soon as she managed to catch up with him.

"Natey are you okay?" she asked asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine" he said. She helped him up and he went to pick up the now busted soda can and throw it in the trash. When he came back, Christina had a pout on her face.

"What are you pouting for?" Nate asked.

"Now, I don't have a soda" she said. Nate laughed.

"Tin, you don't need sugar in the morning" he said. That caused Christina to pout more and Nate to laugh more. Nate started to walk but noticed that Christina wasn't moving.

"Tin, come on or we will be late for school" he said. She still didn't move.

"Ok then, I'll do anything you want to make up for the soda" he said. this caused a smirk to form on Christina's face.


"Anything?" she asked.

"Anything" nate said. Christina stood quiet for a minute while rocking back and forth on the balls of her feet. She'd been thinking about one particular thing for a while now and thought that now was the time to bring it up.

"Well...there is one thing" she said.

"what is it?" Nate asked.

"umm..." she didn't really know how to say this.

"Tin, what is it?" Nate asked again.

"I want...a kiss" she said while looking at the ground.

"why a kiss?"

"Because...I think I like you...as more than a friend...But it's okay if you don't want to kiss me, I would un-" Nate cut her off with his lips. He pulled back with a smile.

"you know...you talk too much" he said.

"HEY!!" Christina yelled.

"Calm down Tin" He kissed her once again. "I think I like you too. Would you be my girlfriend?" he asked. Christina looked at him, not being able to form words.

"umm...I would...lo...ve...yes!!" she said and threw her arms around him. He laughed.

"Okay, good, now lets get to school, we're already late" he says.

"Okay" she says and grabs his hand.

June 12, 3 years ago

"Hey Natey" Christina yelled when she walked into the schoolyard.

"Hey Tin" he said and kissed her.

They didn't get much time to talk because Nate had to go to an early football practice. This was their last year in middle school and Nate was getting the schools mvp award for eighth grade. Christina watched him leave but turned her attention away when one of her friends came up to her. She started talking, but she did notice the school's head cheerleader, and biggest slut, Melanie run up to Nate on the field but didn't think anything of it. She just walked inside the school for the eighth grade graduation practice. She knew Nate wasn't going to be there because he was at the football field, but when she went there, the coach told her that he went home already.

Christina walked home and decided to stop at Nate's house which was right next door. She didn't have to knock because she had a key. The house had become her second home to her so the family gave her a key. She walked in and noticing that Nate wasn't downstairs, she headed up the stairs.

When she got closer to the top of the stairs, she heard sounds coming from Nates room. She walked over to the door quietly. It was open a crack. She peeked in a little to find Nate, shirtless, on top of a shirtless Melanie. Christina gasped loudly but tried to hide it. Nate heard and saw her at the door. She had tears in her eyes. She turned and ran down the hallway.

"Tin wait!!" Nate yelled and got up to chase after her, leaving Melanie. He caught her when she reached the door. He grabbed her arms.

"Tin listen, I'm sorry. I don't-"

"NATE SHUTUP!! I DON'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU EVER AGAIN. I HATE YOU. WE'RE OVER NATE" she yelled. Nate didn't know what to say.

"Tin-"

"How could you do that Nate, after all we been through. You know that she only did that to make me mad...and it worked. She doesn't like me Nate, and she doesn't like you. She's only using you...but if that's what you want, don't let me stop you. Just don't talk to me anymore" she said and walked out the door.

Nate didn't even follow her, he knew there was no changing her mind so he didn't even try. He wanted to but something possed him not to. Instead...he went right back upstairs to his room...where Melanie was.

Ok so I hope that clears up everything up to the big fight. If not let me know.

Reviews make me happy
