Told ya I'd update today!! Aren't I lovely?

Nice to know it's not just me that thinks Taylor is being over the top.. cos, let's face it, the break-up's publicity has gone too far.

"Who didnt hear her say that rubbish about joe? im going through 'teardrops on
my guitar' withdrawl, but i will NOT listen to it until she apologises
publicly for being stupid!"- GirlMarauderJonas = Yes, she really needs to apolgise.. I only own "Love story" as I'm in the UK, but I'm still refusing to listen to it.. serves her right!

Have you seen Joe's response/explanation.. it is so sweet.. and so true!! Relationships are two-sided and you have to both be happy.. yay!

So will Lucy and Nate ever get married? Find out soon...

Chapter Twenty-Nine

Lucy

I groaned; my head ached. I sat up and opened my eyes. I was in my bedroom, lying on my bed. Why wasn't I in my vocals class? Maybe it was all a dream...

"Hey, you're up." Joe smiled, appearing in my doorway.

"What...what happened?" I asked, feeling confused.

He sat down next to me, handing me a glass of water. "Well you fainted in class and then you woke up when the nurse came, saying you felt faint. So I brought you back here and you fell asleep."

"My head kills." I groaned, as he handed me some paracetmol.

"You must have hit it when you fell."

I swallowed the tablets and my water. "That should get me back to normal in no time."

"Good." He smiled.

"Hadn't you better get back to class?"

"Well the other girls just walked off, so that's my only lesson today." He glanced over at my songbook. "So that song was really good. Is it new?"

"Yeah, I've written a load of new ones."

He opened my notebook and began to scan the pages. There was one song I had started that I didn't want him to see, so I quickly tried to snatch it away from him. Too late.

"I'll keep you my dirty little secret
Don't tell anyone or you'll be just another regret
My dirty little secret." He looked up at me.

I blushed. "I...er...I..."

"Hey, it's okay." He leant forwards and kissed me passionately. "It's a good song."

I smiled. "But that's all I have of it..."

My phone rang, so I jumped up. "Hello?"

"Lucy, my dear, how are you!?" John, our agent, chimed down the phone.

I laughed. "I'm okay thanks, yourself?"

"Fantastic!" He replied. "Look, I have a proposition for you."

Joe put his ear up against the phone, listening in on the coversation.

"Okay.. carry on." I said, feeling confused.

"I've been getting heaps of letters and everyone thinks you and Joe should do another song together."

Joe smiled at me.

"Erm.. okay then."

"But the market wants something more upbeat and full of spice this time."

I burst into giggles. "Okay..."

"And you have an interview with Hot Tunes magazine on Saturday.. they want both of you, as you are recording a song together."

I raised an eyebrow. "How did they know that so quickly...?"

"Because the editor is sitting with me currently.. so, ten o'clock on Saturday... and get working on a song! Bye!"

The line went dead and I put the phone down.

"Well this is interesting." I said, looking at Joe.

"Yeah, he's sleeping with the editor of Hot Tunes Magazine." Joe smirked.

"So, we're doing another song.. hadn't we better start thinking of-"

He interrupted me with a passionate kiss, sending shivers down my spine.

"Hey, we can do that when we have ideas for a song mister." I told him off with a frown.

Joe

I smiled at her, making her giggle. I knew she couldn't be angry with me for long.

"We already have an idea." I replied.

"We do?" She raised an eyebrow.

I nodded at her songbook. "How about this?"

"Is that such a good idea?" She looked worried.

"Look, it's just as song as far as anyone's concerned.. words on paper without a meaning.. except to us." I smiled, kissing her cheek.

She picked up her guitar and began to strum.

"Let me know that I've done wrong
When I've known this all along
I go around a time or two
Just to waste my time with you." I sang, making her frown. She stopped playing her guitar and I kissed her nose. "Hey, it's a song about love, passion and hate, is it not?"

"Fine." She pouted.

"Look, I love you, so I don't mean it.. I'm just acting."

She began to play her guitar again, singing her new lyrics.

"Tell me all that you've thrown away
Find out games you don't wanna play
You are the only one that needs to know."

"There we go." I smiled.

This was going to be fun...

Nate

It was Lucy's free lesson and she had been sent back to her room after fainting, according to the girls from her vocal class. I walked into her dorm, as the door was unlocked.

I could hear laughing coming from bedroom, so I walked over.

There my fiancee sat, giggling, next to Joe.

"What's going on!?"

Dun dun dun! How will he react!?
