Emma woke up well rested. She rolled over and almost screamed. There was another person in her bed...

Joe looked very peaceful next to her. His arms were around her waist. WOW. How did that happen? She must have really been out. She rolled her eyes then sighed. She blew air into his face softly, watching his hair go up. She giggled softly. That was really cute.

'Pancakes!' Carli called from downstairs. Joe awoke. Emma knew this because he tightened his grip on her and pulled her closer, not that that was really possible. He opened his eyes slowly. He smiled at her. 'What are you doing?'

'Watching you sleep.'

'Uhhh... Deja Vu much?' Joe laughed and closed his eyes again. Emma squirmed. 'Uhhh... Joe?' She asked. 'Mhm...' Joe answered. 'Can you let me go...?'

'Nuh Uh.' He pressed her to his chest like a teddy. Emma felt sparks but...

'Joe i want pancakes.'

'No... '

'WOW. Joe Jonas refusing pancakes. This is a first. It'll be in the headlines tomorrow.' Emma laughed. Her stomach grumbled, but Joe didn't let go. 'Joe...' She said softly. He opened his eyes.

'Wah...' He wasn't awake enough to say one word without drawing it out.

'Joe let me go.'

'Nahhhhhh... You're warm...' He smiled and Emma felt his legs entangle with her own. Ohhhh... His skin was warm too... She started feeling sleepy. She wrapped her own arms around Joe's torso. 'Joe?' She mumbled.

'Uh huh...'

'Don't worry.'

He smiled and closed his eyes again. Emma rested her head in the crook of his neck and started falling asleep...

'Emmm...' Joe whispered. Emma woke up suddenly. Ugh... There was drool on Joe's T-shirt. Whoops...

'Can i kiss you now?'

Wait. WHAT?

Emma looked up. Joe's eyes were wide open and he had that look again. The one that he had yesterday... Emma took a deep breath, forcing herself to wake up a bit.

'Joe...' She whispered back. He looked so cute, with his hair all mussed up like that. She could've just kissed him... Oh wait, she can! Joe looked down at her lips and then back up to her eyes. Now that was sexy.

And they both jumped backwards when there was a thump very close to them. 'What?' Joe was confused. Emma shrugged. Then Kevin came into view, blushing. 'Hey... Ahhhh... Sorry to interrupt...' He didn't look very sorry. In fact, he looked kind of pleased. 'Mom wants you down for lunch.'

Lunch?

Emma looked over Joe's shoulder. 12:06. Where did time go? She heard Joe reply. 'Yeah, we'll be there soon.' Kevin nodded and stood up.

Hang on.

Stood up?

….

'Kevin... Can i talk to you?' Emma asked.

'Sure.' Kevin said smoothy and walked out. Joe looked sad as Emma detached herself from him. 'Go get lunch.' She said, and left. He watched her leave, already wishing he could hold her again.

Nick looked at Carli. 'What do you want to do?' He asked.

Carli shrugged. 'Something.'

'Well you're helpfull.'

'I try.'

They sat in silence. He reached over a grabbed his ipod and offered Carli one earphone, which she accepted. He was scrolling down the music when Carli snatched it off him. He huffed and she poked her tongue out at him in response. He heard a song blast into his ear. Oh boy.

They went to the bathroom, since it was the only room in the whole bus with a actual door.

'Kevin, how long were you on my floor?' Emma demanded while she watched Kevin rotate his head to get all the kinks out of his neck.

'Uhhh... About the whole night and the whole morning.'

Emma blanched. 'Why?' She asked. Kevin shrugged. 'I wanted to see if you were okay... You seemed pretty out of it last night.'

'Oh.' That was so sweet. 'Thanks.'

Kevin just slid down the wall so he was seated on the floor. Emma joined him and sighed, resting her head on his shoulder, thinking about how it was only day two and she was already in a mess. Kevin lightly rested his head ontop of hers. They just sat there in silence for a while, each lost in their own thoughts - of each other.

'Emma?' Asked Kevin suddenly.

'Mhm?'

'You know what would be funny?'

'What?' Emma asked.

'If we could convince Joe that we were dating. Imagine his expression...'

Emma chuckled at the thought. 'Yeah.'

'So do you want to do it?'

Emma was shocked. 'What?'

'C'mon, Em. It'll be fun...' Kevin pleaded. He put his hand ontop of hers. 'Will you go out with me?'

Emma thought long and hard about it, occurring another minute of silence. 'Do you like me Kev?' She asked him.

'Yes.' Kevin said unfaltering. Her heart melted.

'So let me get this straight. We're gonna convince Joe we're dating when we're actually not and meanwhile you get to take me out on a date which you want to anyway coz you like me and i'm stuck feeling guilty because i'm hurting Joe but laughing at the same time that he actually believes us.' Emma said fast and took a huge breath at the end. Kevin laughed. 'Yeah, pretty much..'

Emma had a thought. 'Kevin, what if we have to kiss?'

Kevin shrugged. 'Then we kiss.' He said as if it was no big deal. Emma raised her eyebrows and looked at him. 'Kevin, I-' She was about to tell him her secret when he put a finger on her lips. 'Shhhh...' He said. That look was back. The same one Joe had. What was it with the Jonas Brothers and looks like that?

Kevin smiled and leaned in then stopped so that their noses were touching. This made Emma giggle and blush. There was a loud bang on the door. 'Oi!' Joe yelled. 'Some people actually want to use the bathroom!' He banged again. Kevin smirked and Emma rolled her eyes. 'Hang on...' Kevin called. He leant down and kissed Emma on the cheek then took her hand and helped her up. Her skin on her cheek and hand tingled. He opened the door and it took Joe just a few seconds to see what was going on. He stared at their intertwined hands and looked hurt. 'What...?' He asked softly.

'We're dating.' Said Kevin bluntly. Emma thought that was harsh but went along with it anyway. Joe's mouth dropped open and they both fought back a laugh. Then Joe looked angry. 'Emma?' He asked. But Emma just stood to one side and said, 'The bathroom's free now, Joe.' He just stayed static, squinting his eyes suspiciously. 'This isn't some sort of prank is it?' Kevin sighed convincingly. 'No, Joe. Emma and I are dating.' He raised her hand to his mouth and kissed the back of her hand. This made Emma smile. 'See?' Kevin said annoyingly.

"its true.'

It was the first time Emma had spoken up on the topic and Joe seemed to believe her words more than anything Kevin did. He looked crushed as he entered the bathroom and shut the door. Emma and Kevin went to Kevin's curtain room. 'I feel so guilty...' Emma put her hands over her face as she lay down on Kevin's bed. 'He looked so hurt...'

Kevin lay next to her. 'Don't worry. He'll get over it.' He soothed. 'It was just the shock.' He stroked her arm.

Emma did worry though.

5 days later, at dinner, there were glares all around. Emma had trouble thinking straight while they said their thanks. It might of been because the thoughts were not hers.

Have we come across the Bass sister telepathy before? I think we have.

Did we mention that they can go so far as to have thought conversations?

Quite Literally. It seems insane, and that's why they don't tell anyone.

(Emma is in bold, Carli is in Italics)

Why didn't you tell me? Are you insane!

What are you on about? And aren't you supposed to be giving thanks right now?

Em, stop being smart. You know what i'm talking about. And since when do we give thanks?

Since we started touring with the Jonas family. Now shut up.

Carli huffed, but obediently shut up till they started eating.

You're insane.

And this is coming from the girl who tried to go UP the water slide when she was 10?

Shuddup. Just coz I wanted to try something different...

And got stuck halfway up the water slide as a result!

Carli glared at Emma and Emma laughed silently.

Shut up! Stop going off topic! You have gone insane! You like Joe!

Apparently not...

Explain...

'Emma and Carli, you're being very quiet tonight. Is everything OK?' Mrs Jonas asked. Oh, she was so caring.

'Just thinking...' Carli said.

'...About the concert.' Emma finished. Carli nodded. 'Yeah that works. Let's go with that.'

I'm dating Kevin...

Carli looked at her sarcastically wide eyed.

NO! I NEVER would have guessed. With all the hand holding and hanging out in his room...

Emma sighed. Kevin looked at her. 'You okay?' He asked. Carli glared at her once more. 'Yeah... I'm fine. Big day, you know.' Emma sighed again. Kevin nodded and smiled at her.

If looks could kill, Emma would be dead a thousand times over.

You're supposed to be with Joe!

Who said?

Uhhh... Let me think... YOU! About ten hundred thousand times before we met the Jonas Brothers! You ALWAYS liked Joe!

Things change.

Ohhh, that's HARSH! Considering I know Joe's feelings haven't, by the way he's looking at you right now..

'Shut UP! Stop tormenting me!' Emma yelled, clamping her hands over her face. Realising that she had said it aloud, she peeked out from behind her fingers. The whole Jonas family was staring at her and Carli was smirking. Frankie dropped his fork in shock. Great. Just... Great. How the hell do you explain something like this?

'Sorry about Emma. She hears voices when she feels guilty.' Carli offered, almost laughing but managing to keep a straight face. Emma glared.

Yeah, YOURS!

'We tried taking her to the doctor but they said there was nothing they could do. Tragic, really.' Carli sighed dramatically.

You're welcome.

Emma huffed. There was no better cover up she could think of, so she ran with it. Oh yes, being deemed mad is just SO fun...

'Are you OK?' Mr Jonas asked Emma. 'Yeah i'm fine...' Everyone was looking shocked. Well, almost everyone.

On the bright side, Joe looks happier.

Emma growled at her sister, slamming her hand onto the table. Growled? Oh gosh. Now they would really think she was insane...

Kevin took her hand. 'Are you sure you're OK?' He asked, looking deep into her eyes, searching. Searching for what? The fact that her sister was thought-torturing her?

'Yes, i'm fine.' Emma said, snatching her hand away guiltily. Both Carli and Joe looked extremely pleased with this. Kevin looked hurt. Emma looked down at her plate to avoid his eyes and started shovelling food so that she didn't have to talk. Stupid Carli.

I'm impressed.

Shut it, Carli. Haven't you done enough damage already? I can imagine the headlines already...

You refused your boyfriend's help! Who does that? Only a guilty person. Only someone who doesn't actually-

Emma's chair scrapped the floor as she stood up. The Jonas family didn't notice this time, they acted as if it was just natural. Maybe they felt as if they might discriminate the mad girl if they made too big of a fuss.

You're only leaving because you know it's true. You can't run from the truth. You can't run from me, either. Funny that.

Emma sat back down, just to prove her sister wrong. But all she saw was yet another smirk on her face. Honestly. Emma was ready to slap her. She would have, but she was on the other side of the table. She notice Joe looking between her and Carli. Uh Oh. Emma thought fast and "accidentally" knocked over the salt. Unfortunately, it spilt all over Kevin. Emma gapped. 'Kev, i'm so sorry! I'll go and get some-'

'Don't bother, Emma.' Kevin said harshly and stood up, spilling salt onto the floor. He walked away and Emma put her face in her hands once again. Not good.

This is so entertaining. It's like, a very dramatic soap opera. You should be on TV or something. Like, "Everybody hates Emma" or something... I'd SO watch that!

Ahhh... Sisterly love. Isn't it great?

'CARLI!' Emma screamed. Now that did not go unnoticed. Everyone stared. Carli did her best innocent look. 'Yes?'

'I... Need your help.'

'Gladly.' Carli smiled.

She had won.

You all thought that Emma was soooooooo lucky.

Well, apparently not. But that could change. I dunno, i'm making this up as i go along.

Also, i'm very disappointed. The table scene in the last chapter. Did NOBODY suspect foul play? I mean, honestly. Nah i'm just joking! I was going to have Joe spike her drink, but then i realised that no Jonas would stoop that low so i left it to sleepiness. Kinda sad... Would've been interesting. Oh well. End result is the same... lol

Wow. I just RE-read this chapter. There's a WHOLE LOT of twists and turns... a bit confusing... oh well. I hope you guys are following. Closely!

Haa i loved the sisterly love bit. Carli can be so annoying, but she can be so right.

Poor Jonas family! They must be SOOOOO confused right about now...

... And what about Kevin? Remember, he actually likes her. A lot.

I think a public appearance may be in order. Maybe a date. And a kiss (or two!).

Wait, what?

Will Emma feel too guilty and go back to Joe?

Or will Kevin and Emma kiss and make up?

What about Nick and Carli?

All in the next chapter of 3 in a Million! :D

(Man, i feel like a TV show host right now...lol)

VOTE: SHOULD EMMA BE WITH JOE OR KEVIN?

(So far Kevin's winning 3 to 1...)

Please Review! Please Please Please Please Please Please Please Please! The more reviews I get the faster the chapters come... xD

Love ya all !
