JONAS – She's Different
The Tales of Nick & Macy
No.10 – Those Caring Words (Finale Part 1)
(Macy's POV)
"Hey guys, this might be asking a little much… but could you give us and Nick a little bit of privacy for just 5 to 10 minutes?" I asked, trying not to sound too rude or bossy. I needed time with Nick, since I'd been away from him and kind of avoiding all our feelings. I'm still freaked that he told me he loved me. I'm not even sure if I feel the same way! I'm not ready to tell him. But there are a few things he needs to know.
My mom looked at me and smiled, "Sure honey… perfectly understandable." She gave me a wink and gathered Stella, Joe and Kevin to walk with her. Stella gave me a slight smile and then rolled her eyes. I giggled at both of their reactions, obviously they understood. I watched them as they walked out, noticing that Kevin and Joe were arguing. I rolled my eyes and carried on giggling at everyone's silliness. Nick turned to face me and chuckled, "Good to see you happy, Miss Misa."
"Yeah I know; it's good to be back in California." Nick gave me his usual calm smile, and automatically connected his hand to mine. "So, what did you get for Stella?" I thought for a second, trying to remember what I got her. I squeezed my eyes tight and tried to memorise what I bought in Florida, I mean I must have bought something! "I can't remember at the moment, I think it was something big though." Nick nodded and then replied, "Cool. By the way, don't tell Stella… but we have a surprise party for her. In fact, we haven't mentioned much of her birthday at all today. She seems confused so, don't say anything."
I nodded, "Gotcha. Sooo, where is the party?" Nick then let go of my hand to get a chair, seems like he needed that since he had been standing a lot. "Well, we hired the Uptown Night Club on Telegraph Avenue... you know, in Oakland?" I thought for a moment again, trying to think if I had been there. Hmmm… oh, erm, yeah! I know where that is. "Oh yeah, isn't that over the Bay Bridge?"
"Yeah that's right. We should leave early though from our place, because it could take a while." I bit my lip. Hmm, wait… that's mean we have like only 3 hours till the party! Crap, which must mean I need to start getting ready now. Generally I wouldn't need 3 hours, just about an hour and half… but with these crutches, I'm going to need to take my time. I gasped, "Oh no… I must start getting ready now!" Nick's eyebrows rose, "Yeah that's right. But I think we'll have to wait until they've come back."
I felt a bit worried, but I knew they wouldn't be long. "Okay, I guess we can wait 5 minutes." Nick smiled at me again and placed his hand on me, staring into my eyes. I suddenly breathed shakily, lost in his dark brown irises. He began to get closer to me when I noticed out of nowhere his eyebrows lowered. Nick was frowning for some strange reason, whilst looking down towards my neck… oh no, has he seen it?
"Macy…" He mumbled, still looking at my neck. He has, he's going to ask about it. Damn it, I really need to be more careful about not showing it. "Yes Nick?" He pointed to it, the metal chain hanging down. The necklace I didn't want him to see, nor in fact any of my friends. How stupid of me to wear it before I came back. "Can I see your necklace?" I gulped. I couldn't let him see it; it would be too painful to see his reaction.
"What necklace?" I asked, trying to act dumb. He gave me a look and said, "Don't act stupid Macy; I can clearly see there's a chain hanging on your neck." I rolled my eyes and sighed, "Fine… but please, don't freak out." I took my dog tag necklace out from under my shirt and held it up for Nick to see. He looked closer at it, he's mouth slightly dropping and eyes widening. "Oh my god, is that what I think it is?"
"Yes, yes! I have diabetes too… I have to wear a dog tag from time to time. Please don't be freaked out." Nick was clearly shocked, barely able to speak. I didn't want him to know yet, it seemed too soon. This was going to change everything, I am such an idiot. He stood up. After a minute or so of waiting for him to say something, he did. He looked back at me and said, "So, you have diabetes like me… this is no joke, right?" I nodded, "No joke." I could see that Nick was desperately trying to make sense of all this.
"Is that why you're always careful about your diet?" I then replied with a simple, "Yep, pretty much." Nick looked down at the floor, frowning again. "Wow, and I never knew. Does Stella, Joe or Kevin know?" I shook my head, "Nope… just my mum, and you now." Nick scratched his head, "This is a lot to take in." I twitched my mouth and felt a bit sad, I wanted to tell him, not let him find out by himself. I just hope he feels I can trust him, because of course I can.
"Hey Nick, take my hands." I whispered to him. He sat back down and took them. He looked up at me, "I'm sorry you had to find out by seeing my dog tag. I would have told you eventually, I just wasn't ready." I looked down and he pushed my head back up and smiled at me, "It's alright Macy. I just want you to be happy." I gave him a weak smile, "Well, I'm glad you know to be honest. I hate keeping things, but my mum thought it would be best to wait a little."
He nodded, "I totally understand. My parents taught me to be strong, even though I was petrified when I first found out. I even got worried that I might die. So, the doctor reassured me and told me that as long as I take the insulin I need, keep my shape and diet healthy, I should be fine. Still though, I do get the occasional blurriness and thirst."
"Yeah, me too… in fact, I remember what happened to me still before I found out. For about a fortnight, out of nowhere, I started vomiting, losing weight and endlessly going to the toilet. My mum had no idea what was wrong with me, so in the end my mum had to take me to hospital, otherwise I probably would have fainted. I got really pale and everything. That day I was officially diagnosed with type 1 diabetes."
"How old were you?" Nick asked, still looking flabbergast. "Hmm… I think I was 11, or 12?" Nick nodded, "Wow, had it longer than me… how did you manage not to show any symptoms when we were around?" That is quite extraordinary actually, it's weird how I never seemed to faint or get blurred vision when Stella or the bros were around. Perhaps I just got lucky. I shrugged, "I don't know, maybe I just got a little luck on my side. Then again, perhaps when I was a fan girl, I could have been fainting because of my diabetes instead."
"Yeah may… wait. Oh, that's a shame. I kinda miss the old Macy." he smiled at me and stroked my hair. I giggled a little and smiled back. I then said, "I'm going to go talk to the doctor now, see if he'll let you out now." I nodded and he walked out. That's when Stella, Joe, Kevin and mom reappeared. "Hey Mace, you okay? Where did Nick head off to?" My mum asked, giving me her caring sympathy smile.
"Oh he just went to go speak to the doctor about letting me out." My mum nodded, "I see, I doubt he'll let you out now though." I bit my lip, "Oh really? I was hoping he would." My mum rolled her eyes and stepped closer towards me, "Oh honey… you are a tough cookie aren't you?" I shrugged and just gave her a smile. Then Stella, Joe and Kevin came towards my bed and Stella sat down. "Macy… I feel like we haven't spoken in ages." Stella said, smiling at me.
I nodded, "Yeah I know." She moved her chair closer towards the bed and then said, "You're officially staying here now, right?" I chuckled and said, "Of course Stell, I can't leave here. I had no idea what I was thinking." She giggled a little. "Yeah Mace, what were you thinking?" Joe asked, crossing his arms. He flashed me a grin. I rolled my eyes and shook my head with laughter. Joe was such a goofball sometimes.
"Joe, stop talking." I said jokily. He gave me a little frown and growled at me. He then appeared with another grin, obviously meaning his frown as a joke. Kevin then begged a little saying, "Hey Macy, don't go to Florida." I smiled at him, "Don't worry… I decided not to go. I only felt like it because I was going to miss you guys when you go to London." Stella then made a cooing noise and gave me a hug, "Aww Macy… we are going to miss you too."
"2 more days… and you're gone, for 3 months." I whispered, sadly. Stella looked at me with sympathy, I hated how there was nothing she could do.
(Stella's POV)
Ugh, I hated seeing Macy sad. I didn't want to leave her for that long. I wish I could do something. Maybe I could beg for Tom to let Macy come with us. I would hate to come back and she's all different, perhaps even close friends with other people. Stop it Stella, don't think things like that. "Hey Macy you're coming to my movie night, right?" I looked at her with a bleak smile. She looked confused but then replied, "Oh right yeah, of course… if I get let out today." Huh, she was acting weird too. The guys were and Macy was.
Why is everyone acting strange? Was it because they wanted it to be their birthday? Why can't they be happy for me! Well, I will find out what's going on soon enough, they know it's hard to keep things from me. Anyway, I hope Macy will be let out; I want her to be there for my birthday and to spend as much time with me as she can before I head off to London with the brothers. Speaking of which, I hope I don't get grossed out by their burping contests and all sorts of creepy non-girl stuff.
The brothers are great and all, but sometimes I need my girl talk with my bestie. I need my gossip, nail manicures and chatting about every cute guy that walks by. Well, we don't do that so much since I'm with Joe at the moment and Macy is falling for Nick, they are so cute together. I hope Macy will tell her feelings before we leave. I know she can't live without him, always happy to see him, and couldn't think of being with anyone else.
She seems too satisfied with Nick rather than anyone else. In fact, I have seen her more happy with him sometimes than with me! Luckily, that's only once in the blue moon… because well, best friends before men that's all I say! But then again maybe it's more different with them because they're not as stubborn and difficult to show emotion. I don't usually admit it, but yes, I can be very stubborn. I am rubbish at showing Joe how much I love him.
I have never said it to him yet, because it's really hard to do so. I still worry that if I did say I loved him he wouldn't say it back. So I keep it all to myself, only Macy knows. Yes, I told her… by accident. I mean, I would have told her eventually, but not straight away! She kind of found out herself anyway. I still remember that day; it was a rather hectic day actually…
As I sat in the full classroom, I got really bored instantly. I didn't like Maths, it was so uninteresting. I would rather much be in Art or Textiles right now. But unfortunately, some of the classes we still have to take. We have to take Maths, Science and English. Science is okay and English can be a drag, but Maths is definitely the worst. I mean, it wouldn't be so bad if I was good at it… but eh, I guess you can't everything you want.
So as Mister Preston droned on and on about some kind of Maths strategy, I quickly got my phone out and started texting Macy a message, hiding the phone under the table. "Meet me at our usual table after class." Seconds later I got a reply back saying, "Sure… see you in 10 minutes." I saw that the guy next to me noticed, but he didn't care, he was just as bored as I was. He was a typical jock, who I think had a slight crush on me. I wish he didn't though, I don't like going through the whole 'I'm not interested' game… it's so awkward and I never like hurting people's feelings when they don't deserve it.
I mean, don't get me wrong, he's not bad looking… I just well, like Joe. I can't help that, I think I have for a while now. Were all seniors now and I think I may have liked him more than a friend about a year ago. I don't know what it is about him, he makes me happy most of the time and is stupidly charming. But most of all he's a great friend. He can annoy me though too, with his complications and thoughtless ways.
The bell rang, finally… lunch. This day had gone so slow today and I haven't see Joe actually. Hmm, maybe he's sick. I quickly rushed out of Maths and suddenly bumped into Macy. "Oh jeez, sorry Mace, I was coming to look for you!" I exclaimed, noticing her books. She replied, "It's alright Stella. You okay?" I shrugged, "Yeah I suppose…" She frowned at me; I was crap at hiding how I felt when I wasn't in a brilliant mood.
Macy brought out a fake laugh, "Ha-ha… you're not okay, I can tell. What is wrong?" I shrugged, "It doesn't matter…" Macy didn't stop. As I tried to walk away from her she pulled my arm and turned me round to face her, "It does. You're my best friend and I want you to be happy, you usually are… but it seems like you haven't been today or yesterday. So now, WHAT is the matter, Stella?" I gave her a weak smile, giving in to her persuasive ways.
I sighed and rolled my eyes, "Fine, fine, fine. It's about a guy." Macy chuckled a little, "Ahhh I see… let me guess, Joe of Jonas right?" Macy then started laughing, but I couldn't laugh… because she was scarily right. After a few seconds she realized that I wasn't laughing with her. She looked back at me with slight panic, "Whoa, did I get that right?" I gave her a look as if to say 'I know right'. I gave her a slight awkward smile.
Cannot believe that was 6 months ago, it only seemed like yesterday. Yeah I know, I've liked Joe for ages now… it's insane. In fact, I think I liked way before 6 months ago. Perhaps when I started 9th grade actually, I just didn't realize it until a few weeks ago. I'm so glad were together now, even though Joe can be a real pain in the butt… he's so sweet. Not to mention he's a good kisser. I don't mention that usually, because it's slightly embarrassing and would just boost Joe's ego.
I did tell Macy about our first kiss though. Our first kiss was really sweet and his lips felt so soft, I actually felt a slight spark too. The shame was that the kiss didn't last long and I ended by not quite being able to keep my cool by leaving with a melon and then suddenly realizing it wasn't my purse. Gosh, I looked like an idiot, but he always thought that was cute when I got confused. We've been dating for a good couple of weeks now and I'm hoping we'll stay quite long.
Anyway, back to the state of normal… I need to start thinking about the rest of the stuff I'm going to pack tonight, since we only have less than 2 days till we leave. I'm probably going to pack quite a lot since I'm a girl and was going for a month. God, I better not be that long away from Macy! Ugh, I guess webcam and chatting online is sort of okay.
I then heard Macy began to speak again, "Stella, we need to get…" Out of nowhere there was a slight bang of the doors and the doctor reappeared. He was looking slightly down at a clipboard, pushing his glasses slightly back up. As he stood there checking through the paperwork on the clipboard for a few seconds, Macy looked hopeful. The doctor frowned for a moment and then looked back at Macy with a smile, "Sorry Miss Misa! I have come back to inform you that yes, you can leave now."
Macy smiled and replied, "Thank you doctor." Macy's mother smiled too. The doctor then said, "If any problems do occur though… make sure to come back." Macy nodded and he left, whilst her mother went to go speak to the doctor. Nick then clapped his hands together and said, "Well, we better get to that club." I frowned at the words, what club? What was he talking about? Aren't we going back to Joe, Kevin's and his house to watch movies? I walked up to him and I asked him suspiciously, "What club?"
Nick froze, he looked suddenly worried. "Err… we needed to, erm… hand back this disco ball that we borrowed from this night club." He didn't sound very convincing, what was going on?
(Kevin's POV)
I checked my watch, astonished by the time. Oh my god, we have to go! "Whoa guys, have you seen the time!" Nick frowned at me and then checked his watch, he made the same expression and then he looked back up to Stella who was giving him an evil look… man, she's not impressed. Poor Nick. We may as well just get going now into some party clothes; we'll just have to ignore her questions. "Nick… what's going on?" Stella asked.
I looked at Joe with fear, then at Nick, then at Macy. We all looked at each other and then we screamed, "Take her!" Stella frowned and we all picked her up and took her. "Guys, let me go!" Stella exclaimed. Macy's mom (MUM hehe) looked confused too but followed us. We ran out the hospital, realizing we must be quiet as we saw doctors shushing us. I was surprised they didn't know us. Hmm, maybe they just don't listen to our music. Soon as we left the building we rushed to the car and gently put Stella in. There wasn't enough to fit us all so Macy went with her mom. (I'm only saying 'mom' because this is based on an American TV show, I'm British… I say 'mum'.)
I got into the car and grabbed my keys out of my pocket. I put the car key into the ignition and pulled up the gearstick and slowly began to un-park the car and drive on out of the car park. I tried to be as fast as I can, but I was kind of getting distracted thanks to the three of them arguing in the back. Stella was real mad, we all knew it wasn't going to be easy trying to convince Stella of watching movies at our house… but of course, my 2 brothers just decide on it anyway and never listen to any of my plans. Typical, just when I was going to tell them about the plan with the monkey.
So here I am, possibly being the only sane one out of the 4 of us… and it's ME who has to drive. I bet you any money I could sort this out way better than Nick and Joe; it's really annoying sometimes how they pity on me. I swear they think I'm stupid or something. So that I didn't get a headache, I decided to put on the radio, which of course… had one of our songs on. It was 'Drive', which certainly seemed like a coincidence.
It didn't make much difference though, they were still arguing. I rolled my eyes and pulled over on the side of a pavement, on a quiet street. I had enough and I was hoping that stopping the car will get everyone's attention, since Macy was really not doing well to get the other three to stop. I guess it's up to me, big old Kevin to sort everything out. They all then realized that I stopped the car, I'm glad. I undid my seatbelt and stood up on the driver's seat and turned to face them.
They all carried for a second and I crossed my arms. "GUYS… Come on, quit fighting already!" They all looked up at me and Stella replied to me, "I will once everyone tells me what the heck is going on?" I sighed and I began to tell her when Macy spoke, "Okay Stella, we had something else planned… but it was meant to a surprise. You'll find out fully later, we just need you to get into this dress…"
Macy opened the lid of a silver box that was under her feet and gently got out a, well… lovely looking thin strapped night blue dress with what seemed to be gold patterns. It looked really nice and I'm sure will on Stella. Stella gasped and beamed a smile, she obviously liked it. She grabbed the dress off Macy and stared at it with glee and gave Macy a look and said, "Aww… thank you Macy, this is an awesome dress."
Macy smiled at Stella, "No problem." Stella still carried on looking at the dress, "If I need to get this on, where am I going to go?" I carried on listening, Macy replied, "Oh don't worry about that, once we get to the place we need to get to, then you can put on the dress there." Stella looked at Macy suspiciously, "Wait… dress, nightclub, are we going to a party?" She suddenly smiled and Macy just said in a relaxed tone, "You'll find out soon…"
Stella rolled her eyes and I sat back down in my seat. I turned my head back towards everyone and said enthusiastically, "Okay… get ready for the ride of your life!" My smiled dropped, "Because we're stuck in this car for over 2 hours." I looked at Macy and she slightly giggled. What? It wasn't a joke. Oh well, I guess I'm just that funny to everyone. I felt Joe pat my back and I gave him a look. He frowned slightly and smiled.
It's weird, because I don't know why Stella sat in the back. I suppose it must be because Joe's in the back, but why is Macy sitting with me? No room must be. I don't mind her sitting at the front though, she's like a little sister I've never had… she's awesome too, perfect for Nick. The funny thing is, I'm not too sure if Nick will actually be the 'pants' in their relationship… could be Macy instead, she can be really sassy sometimes.
In fact, no joke, she has been quite frightening, especially when she shouts at someone with anger; like an insult. Jeez, she can really scream and yell. I'm sure Nick will get frightened if they ever fight in the future. But eh, let's not think of that, I'm sure they won't fight often. They don't seem like the two to shout at each other, more like whisper. Man, I really need a girlfriend… I'm beginning to sound so much more like an obsessed fan of them being a couple, not cool. I'm happy for them, but I don't want to get all giddy about them like a silly little girl.
An hour later…
Oh great, another hour or so until were there. You know, being the driver kind of sucked. You don't get to talk to people much, since you have to focus on driving so that you don't crash. Makes sense of course, but there's just you… if I did crash the car, it would just be my fault, no one else's. That is unless someone else in the car distracts you, then it's the other person's fault. Macy was occasionally talking to me though, since she was in the front with me too. She tried to make me laugh with bad jokes, they kind of did. My jokes were bad too though, Macy giggled.
Joe was being his usual stupid self, making Stella laugh and Nick shake his head, he slightly chuckled. Joe then moaned at me, "Kevin… are we nearly there?" I rolled my eyes and yelled back to him, "Joe, stop asking! You've asked me like 5 times now… we still have an hour and a bit to go, okay?" Joe then groaned, "Can we stop to go get a bite? I'm seriously hungry." I sighed, "No Joe… we will eat later at the p...lace." I gulped a little, I almost said 'party'. Good thing I didn't otherwise that would spoil the surprise for Stella.
Then Stella asked me, "Why are we going to a place that is so far away?" I shrugged and tilted my head a bit so she could hear me clearly, "Why not?" She then leaned over closer to talk to my ear, "Well… couldn't we go to a good place for my birthday that's nearer to where we live?" This wasn't my idea; it was Nick and Joe's. I don't even know why they chose the place. What was the point? I'm sure there were loads of other nightclubs we could have hired instead of one that is 2 and a half hours away! I just shrugged again and said, "I suppose… it wasn't my idea though, ask Nick or Joe."
(Nick's POV)
Grr, Kevin! Make it easier for us, especially when were trying not to get Stella to find out. Ugh, why did he have to say that… it's clearly not going to help? I squinted my eyes at with slight anger, which was Stella turned towards me and Joe. She was giving us an eyeing look, her eyebrows raised. I gave her a slight awkward smile and nudged Joe to answer her. Joe also did the same but began, "Well… we-we thought that we could err… go to a place that is a lot better than the places we already know."
Stella then let out a groan, but it wasn't an angry groan… more like a frustrated whiney groan. "Come on guys! You're killing me with your vagueness… just tell me where the heck we are going?" I sighed and said, "Sorry Stella, we want it to be a surprise." She then sat back on the car seat; I heard a huffing sound coming from her mouth. She was clearly sulking, and Macy was finding this hilariously funny. I glared at her and stuck my tongue out. She giggled and shone her tongue back at me. Jeez, even when she was being a slight pain… she was still incredibly adorable.
I want to just wrestle her now, but in a friendly way. Then kiss those soft looking lips of her, those same ones that I ever so firmly touched that night of us running down the field of the local park, laughing at each other and talking loads of rubbish like we always do. The kiss was more than just 'kinda awesome', and the thought of properly kissing her almost blew my mind. Bad Nick, I say. That is too many devilish ideas.
I then find myself beginning to snap back to reality when I found Macy snapping her fingers in front of my face. I shook my head and realised I must have been practically gawking at Macy… I think I just blushed, I swear I felt it. She still looked at me with confusion, "You okay Nick?" I shook my head once more and replied, "Yeah, yeah… I'm fine." I blinked too many times. She slightly frowned at me, her hand circling and brushing my dark brown curls. She gave me a warm smile, her eyes all relaxed.
I then gently took her hand away, "You can stop fiddling now." I gave her a fierce grin, her shoulders dropping. She gave me a grin back and narrowed her eyes at me. She then began to bring her hand back to my locks of hair, but I pushed it back away. She attempted to force her strength back at me, she didn't try hard enough. Until then, she really did… and whacked my arm away. I frowned at her gave her a shocked expression. "Damn you Misa…" I mumbled, still grinning like the idiot that I was.
I know for sure now I am a total hopeless romantic. I'm glad that I'm not intense any more, I don't need to be when I get on with Macy really well. But if I lose her, I'll have to start all over again. I don't think of that though, especially since I'm not even officially with her. Were kind of like 'friends for benefits' but not really at the same time. I know that clearly does not make sense, but it does for me and Macy. I guess we just decided on it for a little while… until Macy has thought it through. I hate being inpatient, but I slightly am.
I just want to be with her now; but I had to respect her choice. If she doesn't feel the same way, I'll have to try and move on, even though that'll be the hardest thing ever I'd have to do in my life. Yeah I know, harder than when I get writer's block and I have to write a song about my broken heart! Anyway, enough of my drivel… I think were possibly 45 minutes away from the club. Thank goodness, everyone was getting bored of Joe's stories. Not to mention, his attempt of jokes. Okay sure, he's funny… but when he tries too hard, his humour comes out terribly.
We all just pretended to laugh, which luckily, got Joe slightly convinced. Huh, maybe he's dumber than Kevin. Yes I know, I can be real harsh to my brothers… but eh, they're not the cleverest people ever, rather stupid sometimes. I'm stupid though when I'm lovesick. This makes sense though; I've become more of a fool for Macy. In fact, I couldn't be any more of a fool than I am now; that's like looking for the impossible.
That was when Joe, after a good minute, suddenly found us suspicious. "Wait a second, did you guys just pretend to laugh?" I then said sarcastically, "Course not Joe." I patted him on the back and gave him my general sarcastic sympathy smile. He frowned a bit and decided to say nothing. He probably realised that was best. Then Kevin said we had less than 40 minutes until we would get to the club. Yeah, we all knew that. I know he's driving and all, but it would be best if he paid a little attention to our conversation too, just in case he needs too.
Oh well, it doesn't matter now. I couldn't care less about the party now. I know that sounds selfish, but I was more worried about what on earth I was going to say to Macy when we leave! How is our relationship going to work when I'm in London for 3 months? Was Macy going to get tired of waiting and meet someone new? Ugh, I don't wanna picture that. Macy should be with me, and only me. I cannot see myself being with anyone else. But unfortunately, it's likely that she'll herself with someone else.
I hate relationships, they're so frigging complicated. It darn pisses me off so much. I wish that could be easy… you know, Macy and I would fall in love with… wait. I said 'love'? Jeez, I really do love her. Damn, nothing's fair in life. But that is life though. But yeah, I kinda see a future with Macy. I'd love to live with her. Of course I couldn't have… you know what… I'm a Catholic and have a purity ring. But sex is not everything in a relationship. Ugh, forget I mentioned it. Stupid me, I shouldn't mention that yet. Were not even together!
Okay, okay… Nick, hold it together. Think about something else; like, like erm… the party! Yeah… okay, the party. I'll have fun I suppose. Yeah, I'll have fun! I'll dance, I'll mess around with my brothers, I'll dance again, with Macy. No! I have to stop thinking about Macy. Grrr, I hate everything. Well no, but I wish Macy could come with me to London. I love my fans, but I love Macy a little bit more.
35 Minutes later…
We were here in Oakland; it was rather busy tonight too. Lots of people were getting drunk on the streets and having fun. I'm not much of a person to drink, I'm only allowed at Christmas times. Only Joe and Kevin are allowed, since they are at the right age of 21 and over. I think it's kind of annoying, but then again, alcohol doesn't do much justice. I'm 18, I would be allowed in London. Maybe I could drink some then, but I don't want to get drunk, I would hate the feeling of hangovers and throwing up, not pleasant at all.
Also, another thing that I didn't find pleasant nor good, was finding out Macy has diabetes. I could barely talk when I found out. I kept the shock in, I want to open up my whole feelings but I was worried if I did, I would be smothering her with my love… I don't want her to think I'm a total sap. Stupid illness, she doesn't deserve to have diabetes like I do. I wish she didn't have to suffer. She's so brave. In fact, she's like one of the bravest girls I have ever met. There is so many good things I could tell you about her.
She's funny, cute, brave, smart, beautiful, charming and all sorts of other stuff. I would explain more, but we'd be here all day. So yeah, we are here and Stella is blindfolded for good reason. We did it a few minutes before we got to this road so that she wouldn't recognize that were in Oakland. I mean, she knows sort of that we are in Oakland, but not specifically where. Yeah I know, we really thought of this surprise thing. Stella can be real difficult to tackle when it comes to hiding things from her.
So we walked into the nightclub all together, Joe and Macy holding each of Stella's arms. I walked in with Kevin and we all looked around, Bigman was guarding the doors along with another bodyguard of ours called Dave. We went through the double doors and the lights seem dim. I could slightly see people hiding under tables and behind doors. It was huge in here. I already knew though from checking out the place the other day. We figured it should be perfect for Stella, especially colourful decoration.
We quickly un wrapped the blindfold from Stella's eyes and Macy switched on the many-eth lights, which lead to every single one of our friends shouting out, "SURPRISE!" Stella jumped, her mouth open wide. We all could tell she clearly wasn't expecting this. I just smiled, proud of the work we all put into surprising Stella with a big huge disco party. Actually, not quite 'disco' theme, since everyone was wearing tuxedos, suits and dresses. Yeah, we made it sort of Hollywood style.
There were disco balls hanging on the walls, a velvet vertical red carpet spread from this side of the room to the other side and strobe lights. It was quite a dark room. Suddenly there were was a bunch of confetti thrown at us and people were smiling at Stella. Stella was still in slight shock, but with a big wide smile on her face. She put her hands in front of her mouth and looked in astonishment of the club.
The DJ walked in from another part of the club and stepped into the platform where all the mixers and music equipment was placed. The guy was tall, dark skinned and big, wearing a t-shirt and track bottoms. He was also wearing some 'gangster' jewelry and a cap. He picked up the microphone and instantly turned it on. "IS EVERYONE READY TO PARTY!" He shouted and everyone in the crowd yelled a "YEAH!" back. He then said, "WELL LET'S… TURN… THE MUSIC UP!" Then everyone cheered and clapped, including me and the others.
Macy smiled at me and I smiled back with pleasure. She kept with the eye contact for a few seconds and then looked away when Stella went to hug her. I just kept my calm smile spread on my face and just enjoyed everyone having fun. I wasn't in the mood to dance quite yet, but Kevin and Joe grabbed me on to the dance floor anyway. I rolled my eyes and figured why don't I just have some fun?
A/N: Phew, that's done now. Took me a while I know. So, what do you think will happen? Will Macy and Nick finally tell their feelings? If so, can they make it work while JONAS goes on tour? Perhaps Macy might be able to go to London after all… but you'll have to find out next chapter. The final chapter! Maybe you can pitch a few ideas (:
Let me know! And yet again, please… review.
