Hey Guys, this is the next chappie, review!!
Laila's face went pale, as she heard her mother's manager talk on the other end of the phone.
"Is mom there?" Laila asked, Nate sat down next to her. She took his hand, forgetting that she was angry. "What were you thinking?" Laila said to her mother.
Nate could hear her mother on the other end because of her closeness to her.
"I am in love honey." She said.
"I get that mom, but could you not have waited? At least until I was there?"
"I am sorry honey, but I had to do this, soon."
"Did you even care about me? How could you do this to me? I am seventeen years old; you are thirty five years old."
"What are you trying to say? I am too old for this."
"No, I am too old for this. I am seventeen mom, I can't have a sibling now."
"Well, you are going to have one, and you have a new father."
"Marco is not my father, I don't have one." She hung up.
"Do you want to tell me about this?" Nate asked her. She slid into the bunk and sat cross-legged, he sat across from her. They were both in her bunk and they closed the curtain. Mitchie and Caitlyn decided to leave, so they could have some privacy.
"My mom is pregnant." Laila said first, "With her manager's baby, she got married two months ago and decided to tell me just now."
"I'm listening..."
"I don't care if the are married, they really love each other...but I wonder if my mom thinks about what effect her actions are going to have on me. I am seventeen years old, and I am going to be a sister. I had a sister, I wonder if she ever thinks about her..."
"What do you mean you had a sister?" Nate said. Laila looked up at him, no one knew the story, it all happened before she was five, before her mom was famous. Her mom never expressed the need to tell the press what had happened, so Laila was forced to keep the secret.
"My mom had twins, me and Lucky...she died when we were four. She had leukemia." Laila looked down.
"So why are making it sound like your moms fault?"
"Because my mom didn't want to put her through the pain of the treatments, so she died." Laila started to cry. "I think she didn't want her, this was her way of easily getting rid of her."
"Babe, it's not like that...maybe it was the right thing to do...all that treatment probably would have killed her because she was so young." Nate said, Laila looked down again. She knew he was right. They sat there for a few minutes before Nate started talking.
"I didn't ask before, how exactly did Shane find out about us?" He was trying to stray from the subject of her sister's death.
"Okay, full story, but you have to promise not to kill Shane."
"Are you going to give me a reason to kill him?"
"Maybe, but you are going to get some better news after that...something that might make you thank him." Laila got his promise and continued. "Do you remember what day today was?"
"Seven years ago, Shane's parents died." Laila was surprised by the look on his face.
"I forgot." He said.
"Well, he was pretty bummed out about it before the concert, he was crying...and he sorta got closer to me and kissed me." Nate took a deep breath, "And that is when he told me he loved me, but when he said that...he made me realize that...I love you." Nate looked up at her. "I love you Nathaniel Jonas."
"I love you." He said leaning as far as he could to kiss her, she leaned the rest of the way. After they finished kissing they laid down next to each other, Laila was on the inside, being squished between Nate and the wall.
"Okay, I want to face you." Laila said trying to turn around, "Oh!" She screamed when she saw Nate fall through the curtain and fall with a big thump on the floor. She quickly drew the curtain and saw Nate lying on his back. She bit her lip trying not to laugh.
"What happened?" The rest of the group came running in.
"Oh..." Caitlyn said starting to laugh. Mitchie joined in and so did Jason, but Shane gave him a glare.
"That hurt," Nate said sitting up and subbing the back of his head. "And you are all laughing."
"I'm not." Shane said, he held his hand out helping Nate up.
"So what were you two doing in the same bunk together?" Mitchie asked raising her eyebrows.
"Uhm...just talking...I am serious, we were just talking." Laila said after looking at four unsure faces.
"Okay, well I'm starving." Laila said moving towards the kitchen part of the bus.
They all ate and laughed a lot, except for Shane who stayed unusually quiet. It was eleven thirty when they had finished eating. Caitlyn turned on the TV.
"News just in...Stacie Logan secretly got married to manager Marco Vega, she also says that they are having their first child. How will Laila react to this? Pop star Laila Logan just turned seventeen and is going to become an older sister. Some surprising news, Robert Underwood was released from jail today. The names Stacie and Laila were frequently heard in his speech. He was also talking about someone named Lucky, could it be an old fling? Or someone he wants revenge on? This is Marcia Ferrera, Hot Tunes TV."
Then Connect 3's music video, Burnin' Up played on TV.
"What the heck was that?" Caitlyn asked. "What does Rob Underwood have anything to do with you and Stacie?"
"He is my biological father." Laila stared at the TV screen.
"That's him?!" Mitchie yelped.
"I have a feeling he is going to come after me again..." Pale in the face, with eyes widened Laila said.
"No, we are here, he can't do anything...plus he can't follow us everywhere." Nate assured her.
"He wants revenge for Lucky." Laila said, everyone was beginning to worry, because she was talking in monotone.
"Who is Lucky?" Shane asked, he was scared too.
"My sister." Laila choked.
"You have a sister." Jason said surprised.
"She had a sister," Nate took the liberty to talk for her, "She died from leukemia when she was four." They looked at her with sympathy. "Her dad and mom split up, and he tried to kidnap Laila, he killed Stacie's boyfriend and now he is out of jail."
"And I think that he is going to kill my mom, or even me. He said he would get revenge for Lucky's death." Laila said, she rested her head into Nate's chest. He rubbed her back, and ran his hands through her hair.
No one talked to her the rest of the night. She fell asleep with Nate on the couch.
She woke up at ten in the morning with Nate stroking her hair. "Why didn't you wake me up?"
"You had a rough night, you needed to sleep." Nate said, "We just got here like twenty minutes ago, Mitchie, Shane and Jason are signing autographs outside. Caitlyn's just waiting out there. The fans think we are sleeping."
"I love you." Laila looked into his big brown eyes.
"I love you too." He kissed her forehead, they got up and got dressed and ready to get out of the bus.
"Laila do you have anything to say about our mother? What happened ten years ago with your father? Are you afraid of what your father might do next?" The press mobbed her when she stepped out of the bus.
She planted her feet firmly on the ground and answered, "I am happy that my mother is going to experience the joy of having another child with the man she loves, ten years ago Rob Underwood was convicted of murder and sent to jail, I am not afraid of what he will do next, because if he has any concern about his daughter, then he will not make another mistake."
She walked away, head up high, dragging Nate by his jacket.
They did their share of signing autographs in the main lobby and the retired to their day suite.
Nate pulled her into the bedroom and gave her a long passionate kiss.
"You know you could have done that out side."
"I think it is best he didn't." They heard that familiar voice and shot their heads towards the open doorway.
