Cory In The House – The Fight For Alyssa
Disclaimer – I only own Alyssa and the plot.
Chapter 6 – Jonases In the House
----------------
The next morning, Cory got up and went into the living room. Sophie was sitting on the couch, staring at the TV.
"Hey Sophie, what're you doing?" Cory asked, sitting down on the opposite end of the couch.
"Watching TV, duh!" She replied. "Now be quiet, Hold On is on."
"What's Hold On?" Cory asked.
"A song!" Sophie said irritatedly.
Cory looked at the TV. Three boys were standing in a room, and paper was being flung in their faces. The song was pretty good though. As it ended, Cory looked to see who it was by.
"So those are the Jonas Brothers." Cory said.
"Duh!" Sophie said again. "Only the best singers ever." She stared at the TV to get a last glimpse of them.
"Just curious, which one is Nick?" Cory asked.
"The one on the left." Sophie replied.
"You know, you should ask your dad to ask them to come here.' Cory suggested, a plan forming in his head.
"You know, Cory, that's the smartest idea you've had the whole time you've been here!" Sophie skipped away.
"Why, thank you!" Cory said, then realized what she'd said. "Wait a minute!"
----------------------
Later that afternoon, when Cory was eating lunch, Sophie skipped into the room.
"Hey Sophie, what would you like for lunch?" Mr. Baxter asked.
"French fries and…a grilled cheese sandwich." Sophie said. She sat at the table across from Cory, who had his own sandwich. "Cory, guess what!" She said.
"What?" He asked.
"The Jonas Brothers are coming tomorrow, and they'll be here for a whole week!" Sophie exclaimed.
"Where do they live, anyways?" Cory asked.
"New Jersey, but they're moving to California." Sophie explained. "Why do you care?" Her eyes narrowed.
"Just wondering." Cory looked anywhere but at Sophie and left the table.
The doorbell rang, and Cory went to answer it.
"Alyssa? Newt?" Cory found them at the door.
"Hey, do you mind if we hang around for a while? Our parents are 'reuniting' and it was either stay at church or walk here." Newt asked.
"Sure, come on in." Cory said.
"So, anything new happen in the past…sixteen hours?" Alyssa asked.
"Well, Sophie got her dad to invite a certain band here. They'll be here for a week, and it was all my idea." Cory said proudly.
"Who's the band?" Newt asked.
"Jonas Brothers." Cory replied.
"Ee!" Alyssa squeaked. "They're coming…here, for a whole week?" She asked.
"Yes." Cory grinned. "Please don't scream." He added.
"How did you pull that off, Cory?" Alyssa asked, still smiling excitedly.
"I can't TELL you! Never reveal secrets? Ring a bell?" He joked.
She laughed.
Yes. Cory thought.
----------------
Meena, Cory, Newt, and Alyssa arrived at the White House the next day after school.
"Do I look okay?" Both girls repeatedly asked.
"You look beautiful." Cory said each time they asked.
"Aww, thanks Cory. You're such a good friend." They would reply.
They finally got to the White House, and Meena and Alyssa looked scared to death.
"They're just people." Cory said.
"Amazing people!" They replied.
They dropped their stuff off in the kitchen and Cory asked his dad where the band would be.
"I think Sophie wanted to meet them outside." Mr. Baxter said.
"Thanks Dad!" Cory said, and they hurried out to the garden (A/N: I don't know if there's really a garden or anything at the White House, I just needed somewhere for them to meet, LOL)
Sophie was already with them, and was excitedly hugging each of them.
"It's so great that you could come to visit." Sophie was babbling.
"Anything for America's Angel!" Nick said sweetly.
"Hi Alyssa!" Sophie said. She'd taken an instant liking to her when they met the night before.
"Hi Sophie." Alyssa smiled.
"This is Meena, and Alyssa, and Newt, and Cory." Sophie introduced them.
"Hi, I'm Nick, and this is Joe and Kevin." Nick introduced himself and his brothers.
"We know." Alyssa and Meena sighed.
Joe suddenly jumped and pulled a phone out of his pocket. "Gotta answer this." He said.
"Who is it, your girlfriend?" Kevin teased.
"Maybe." Joe glared at him and walked away.
"Gosh, they're doing this on purpose." Nick said when he felt his phone vibrate, took out his phone, which was playing Please Be Mine, and walked in the opposite direction as Joe.
They came back after a couple minutes.
"They thought we were still driving." Joe explained.
"Who thought you were still driving?" Sophie asked.
"Our girlfriends, Katie and Lily." Nick replied. (A/N: That's not REALLY their girlfriends; I'm using the ones from my other story, Everyone Likes Nick.)
"We can call them back later." Joe said.
"Yeah…they were calling because Jason's over." Nick replied.
"You and Katie must talk like, a mile a minute. I said hi, Lily said hi, I said I had to go, she said bye, I said bye, end of conversation." Joe said.
"That's because you and Lily have the simplest conversations in the world." Nick said.
"Boys! It's time to play tea party!" Sophie said in a sing-song voice.
Nick, Joe, and Kevin looked at her, horrified. "You know, Sophie, tea party isn't really our thing." Joe stuttered.
"Time to play tea party." She said, giving them the death glare.
"Sophie, how about I play tea party with you and we can practice those Bahavian dances again!" Meena suggested.
"Okay!" Sophie instantly turned her attention from the boys to Meena, and grabbed her hand, dragging her off to her room.
Meena turned around and winked.
"Thank you." Joe mouthed.
"So…what should we do?" Kevin asked.
"We could show them the band room!" Newt suggested.
"Yeah!" Cory and Alyssa agreed.
"Wait, no transportation." Alyssa said. "I'll call my mom and beg her to bring the van down here."
"Band room?" Nick asked.
"Newt's got this awesome room we use for our band." Cory explained as Alyssa walked away to call her mom.
"Ohhh." They said.
"You have a band?" Joe asked.
"Yeah! And we ROCK!" Newt declared.
"No one's doubting you." Alyssa returned. "My mom's on her way. Wonder what she did with Danny and Drake…"
"Probably with our dads. I'll bet they're still 'reuniting.'" Newt replied.
"Next thing we know, they'll be down at a lake fishing." She joked.
Alyssa's mom drove up the driveway.
"Okay, Newt's tallest, so he'll sit in the front." Alyssa said, and everyone followed her to the car.
----------------
"Dude, this is AWESOME!" Joe cried when he saw the room.
"That's what everyone says!" Newt replied.
"Hey, you said you have a band. Let's hear a song." Kevin suggested.
"Okay!" Cory said. Alyssa tugged his sleeve.
"One, Meena isn't here, two, I can't perform for the Jonas Brothers!" She whisper-yelled in Cory's ear.
"BUT, Meena isn't here. So, we can't." Cory said to the brothers.
"Oh, that's too bad. Maybe another time." Nick said.
"But maybe you could perform for us?" Alyssa asked cautiously.
"Sure!" Kevin replied.
"I officially LOVE these guys!" Alyssa squealed under her breath.
"Any requests?" Joe asked into the microphone, jumping a little at how it echoed.
"Hold On." Alyssa said instantly.
"Okay then!" Joe said, and they started the song.
-------------------
"It was the best day ever. I can't believe you couldn't be there." Alyssa gushed over the phone to Meena. "The only bad thing was, Nick has a girlfriend."
"Well, you still have Newt." Meena teased.
"Meena! We've been best friends since we were five! I can't want to go out with him; it might ruin our whole friendship." Alyssa said. The phone beeped, and Alyssa looked at the caller ID. "Hey Meena, I'll call you back, this is the third time Cory's called me." Alyssa said, and hung up on Meena. "Hello?"
"Alyssa, we forgot to call the record deal guy!" Cory cried.
"Oops. We can call him tomorrow. Just don't let me forget." Alyssa said.
"Okay." Cory replied.
"Well, I'm talking to Meena, so I have to go!" Alyssa switched back to talking to Meena.

A/N: Jonas Brothers! It's like I can't keep them out of my stories ;). Hope you liked the chapter, please review! Oh yeah, if you're going to review, please be nice. Constructive critism is absolutely wonderful, but if you're just being mean, it's really rude. You know who you are.
