A/N Okay so I've had a lot of questions asked in the reviews so I'll do my best to answer them without giving away too much.
Is Emma like Emma Watson?
No, I actually just used the name Emma because that's some girl I hate at school. But then I realized that Joe has like this mad crush on Emma Watson so I can see where that question would come from. But the answer is still no.
Why is Joe so evil?
I know he's being a complete jerk right now but everyone can change.
Will Mel end up being with Nick?
I've been asking myself that for a while now too and I've made up my mind. You'll just have to read to find out: D
If there are any other questions don't be afraid to ask! And thanks for all the reviews, I LOVE getting them!
Chapter 7
When I woke up Nicks arms where wrapped around me and my head was resting on his chest. I didn't want to move from this spot, ever. But I really had to pee. It took all the effort I could muster up in the morning to get out of bed without waking Nick but somehow I did it.
When I was done in the bathroom he was still sleeping, I thought since he was so nice to me last night that I'd go get us some breakfast. I didn't want him to think that I had gone home so I left him a note.
Nick,
Went to go get us a little something to eat. Be back soon!
Melody
I put it on the bedside table and quietly left the room. The Dunkin Donuts was not even a minute walk from the Inn since both were located in the "downtown" area. I went in and there was a surprisingly huge line. Consisting mostly of little kids wanting something special for their Sunday morning breakfast.
I thought it would be better if I wasted a little time in CVS while I waited for the Dunkies line to calm down. I went into CVS which was right next door and headed for my favorite isle. The magazine isle, I was completely addicted to the teen trash ones like Popstar and J-14. As I picked up the latest issue of M it finally hit me, if Joe was using Emma for publicity then how come I had never seen any pictures of them together.
I was flipping through when the words "Are Emma and Joe dating?" there was a whole page article about it. It was mostly quotes from their publicists saying they were just "good friends" followed by at least 5 pictures of them together out and about in LA.
I turned the page to be caught off guard yet again when the article said "Joe may not be dating Emma but he seems to have a new love triangle." And there was a picture of me and Emma shaking hands with our big fake grins and dirty looks on our faces with Joe standing in the background smiling like an idiot.
Underneath there was a quote from an "inside source" that said "I herd the new girl say 'Oh me and Joe had, so much fun last night' and trust me she meant sex."
I could feel the tears well up in my eyes. I knew it was just a rumor but living in a small town like this one a single rumor could ruin your whole high school career. And what would my parents think? What would my friends think? Worst of all what would Joe think? Would he be mad that I said that to Emma? And what about Nick? He'd knew nothing had happened but he could still get mad at me for being so mean to Emma.
I threw down the magazine and headed back for the hotel. I almost walked by Dunkies but no matter how mad I was I needed to repay Nick for what he did last night so I went in and got us some breakfast.
Nick had awoken when I returned and he had the biggest smile on his face when he saw the Dunkin Donuts bag.
"Good morning sleepy head." I said trying to not to give away all the thoughts about the magazine going through my head.
"Dunkin Donuts?!?! Do you know how much I love Dunkin Donuts?!?"
"Ha-ha no, Nick please enlighten me, how much?"
"This much!" He said giving me a big fat kiss on the lips.
"Okay, sorry maybe that was uncalled for." He said instantly regretting his random streak of spontaneity.
"Don't worry about it. I was kiss people who bring me Dunkin Donuts." I put the food down on the table and we started our breakfast. He must have noticed that I was being unusually quite because he kept giving me weird looks.
"Okay, enough tell me what's wrong." He caught me off guard, I hadn't even thought about if I should tell him what I saw in CVS or not. But eventually he'd find out so why not.
"Well this morning I was in CVS and-"
"Nick did you see this article? It's bogus!" Joe said bursting though the door. How ha he gotten the key??
"Joe, how'd you get in here?" Nick must have read my mind. He seems to have that ability.
"Your door was propped open."
"Oh, let me see the article." My heart sunk when I saw that it was M magazine. His eyes quickly scanned the page and he didn't seem too shocked.
"Yeah what's the big deal, they think you and Emma are going out. Hm maybe it's because you are."
"No! Turn the page."
"Oh" He said.
"Uh oh, this can't be good. Melody is this what's been bothering you?"
"Yeah. I saw it this morning."
"I have to go tell Kev. He'll now what to do." And with that Nick had left the room leaving me and Joe alone.
"I'm sorry Joe. I really didn't mean for that to happen. Oh gosh, this is all my fault." The tears had left my eyes and made their way down my cheeks.
"No, no it's not. I should have never brought you there to met Emma. Honestly, I don't even like her. Nick was right; I'm just using her for publicity." I was completely taken a back. I would have expected Joe to be really mad, but here he was bearing his soul. It's like he became a different person over night.
"Joe, why would you use her for that? I mean you guys are already huge."
"I know but it was always Jonas Brothers publicity, it sounds selfish, but I just wanted some of my own. I was wrong though it was a bad decision on my part."
"Well everything will turn out okay. You'll just breakup with her and all your fans will be super happy you're single."
"Oh, I broke up with her yesterday. After Nick talked to me I realized something really important."
"Yeah, what's that?"
"I love you."
"Wha- what?"
"I know! I know! I've just met you 2 nights ago but I've never wanted to be with somebody so badly. I was hoping that by introducing you to Emma you'd be jealous and want to be with me even more. Look like my plan backfired. And that's why I yelled at you last night when you said wouldn't go on tour with us. I'm not dumb, I knew it was because you hate me but I was just so hurt by it that I yelled at you. But I guess after today you never have to see me again so you don't even care about anything I just told you."
"Joe. You didn't have to make me jealous to make me want you. Trust me I already do. And I don't hate you, I could never hate you. It was just something I said in the heat of the moment. And I think I'll be seeing you a lot more. I'm going to accept the tour offer."
"Really?"
"Yes, really."
"But aren't you and Nick kind of like together?"
"For a little bit I thought we would be but I just can't be with him. It would be like dating my best friend, and we all know that never seems to work out."
"Yeah but I'm sure he'll be crushed, he really likes you."
"Who really likes you?" Nick said coming back in.
"Um Nick I think we need to talk."
"Yeah, I'll see you guys later. Oh wait what'd Kev say to do about the article?"
"Oh he said not to worry about it, he'd call M and tell them that if they didn't publicly announce that the article was false then we'd never do an interview or photo shoot with them again."
"Oh, sounds easy enough. Well see you guys later." Joe said and left the room.
"Nick, you don't want to date me do you?"
"Huh?" Nick said completely surprised.
"I know you really like me, and I really like you but I think we both just confused our feeling last night. We were both hurt and thought that we could be a couple but we really can't be"
"Well I mean yeah I guess it would be nice to be a couple. But are you saying were better off as friends?"
"Well yeah."
"Okay, I guess I understand. Its Joe isn't it?"
"Yeah, he explained to me why he was being such a jerk lately and well I kind of still really like him. I mean I think I love him."
"Well I hope you two are very happy together."
"Nick, don't be like that. I know your hurt but I really think that it's for the best."
"Yeah your right." He said and gave me a hug.
"Oh but I didn't even tell you the best part yet!" I said remembering the record deal and the tour.
"I'm going on tour with you guys!"
"Really?!?!"
"Yeah!"
"Mel, that's great! I've always wanted to go on tour with one of my best friends."
----
I was happy that Nick had accepted me and Joe. I could tell he was a little sad about it but would get over it soon enough.
Mr. Jonas had brought me home because he wanted to talk to my parents about the tour.
I was told to stay in my room while he talked to them. I had told him they'd probably be resistant but he assured me that he could get them to change they're mind. I was sitting in my room texting Joe when I herd the worst sentence to ever leave my fathers mouth.
"I'm sorry Mr. Jonas, but my 16 year old daughter will not be going on tour, especially not with three teenage boys."
A/NUh oh! Will Mel be able to go on tour?!?! The more reviews I get the faster you'll find out!
