Okay I'm finally back! I'm sorry everyone I know I havent updated in forever. So this is why I didn't update before: movies (the princess and the frog*, avatar, alvin and the chipmunks, paranormal activity and much more), doctor appointment (=/), christmas (merry christmas!) new year (happy new year!) and MY 18TH BIRTHDAY (today! yay!)
So, that's why I'm updating once upon a love + posting a ONE-SHOT! It's about monsters inc. you must be wondering why, I mean that's really random. Well my sister was watching monsters inc and I got inspired and then things progressed and…blah. It's my first ever so pleeeaaase review!
Also you might have noticed that in the last chapter Alex said "we're at 80 degrees" and you mustve said wtf it's winter. I know it doesn't seem logical RIGHT NOW but, in a couple years it'll be like that, it's already happening. Here in south america it's summer, but it rains like crazy and then the next day it's all sunny, the next day its so cloudy and cold, and in winter it was the same one day it was extremely cold and the next day you wanted to be in underwear. And since my fic is set in the future…and that's what I think will happen in ny because of GLOBAL WARMING the weather will go crazy. So...help the environment, save your planet (it's your home)! :D
* (did any1 realize their was a *? Maybe yes maybe not! Anyway) I LOVEDDD the princess and the frog!! Tiana is officially my fave disney princess. If I have a daughter imma name her Tiana Evangeline =] and if I have a son…well I wanted Louis Raymond but my fiance wants to choose the name so…ok enough about me & onto the story.
Alex jumped when she saw him.
"Sorry Nick, I didn't know you were here! And…well, I haven't changed clothes, so I was just…"
"It's okay… uh…--" but he got interrupted by a crying Dean.
"Aww, baby what hurts? Are you hungry? Ugh where's that silly bottle?"
Nick spotted it and gave it to Alex.
"Thanks Nick. This kid is hungry all the time." She stuck the bottle in Dean's mouth and he sucked greedily at it.
"Yeah…. Well, I gotta go now. See ya Alex," said Nick as he finished his sandwich and walked away as fast as he could so that Alex wouldn't see the pain his face showed. Nick had always been in love with Alex. He had always been positive that he was her soul mate, that he would be perfect for her. They had gone through all the stages; playing together in their play crib, learning to walk on a soft carpet, swimming naked in the pool, cooties, trust, friendship…it only seemed logical that he should be in love with her. But he didn't want to; he just wanted to love her as a friend He couldn't help it, though; he wanted to go and kiss Alex whenever he saw her. It was very hard for him not to. But he managed to control himself because he was afraid he'd scare her away. And, the fact that the pregnancy had make Alex's curves more defined and her breasts had grown didn't make it any easier for him. He wanted to forget Alex, but he couldn't take her off his mind. He was snatched out of his thoughts by his brother Joe.
"Nick? Seriously, just chill. Kevin and I know what's going on. And we really think you should move on, because you know Alex doesn't love you the way you do love her."
"What?" Nick jumped and his eyes widened. He believed his love for Alex was the world's most guarded secret. What if it was so obvious that even Alex knew? He wanted to jump off a building. Get eaten by sharks. Be submerged in acid. Anything. Because he thought it was stupid. Nick Jonas, the great former super star, in love with a girl that did not love him back, while there were more than a million girls that were dying to date him. Funny how the one he truly loved wasn't included in that group. That was probably the reason why he loved her.
"Hey. Sorry am I interrupting anything?" said Alex as she entered the guest room. "I forgot this in here a couple days ago. I'm leaving, I'm leaving!"
"Wait," Nick grabbed her arm strongly and Alex winced.
"Nick let go you are hurting me," said Alex. But he did not let go. Instead, he pulled her closer to him and kissed her. Alex tried to escape by pushing Nick, but he misunderstood the action and brought her closer. Joe and Kevin were too shocked to do anything until they finally reacted and grabbed Nick by his shoulders. Alex gasped for air as soon as she was free.
"Oh please…," mumbled Nick as Alex leaned on the wall for support.
"Nick? Why did you do that? I think the fact that I have a boyfriend is pretty obvious. I told you about him yesterday! Weren't you listening?"
"Yes I was listening Alex, but I've got to tell you something," said Nick, taking a deep breath. Joe bit his lower lip and Kevin shook his head disapprovingly.
"Why would I even listen to you?" she said as she left the room and slammed the door behind her.
"She forgot what she was supposed to take," said Kevin, picking up a box. Joe opened it and found a picture of Alex, Dean, and their son, probably the day he was born. He quickly put it back and started whistling absentmindedly. Kevin looked at the different pictures that hung from the walls in the room.
"What was in there?" asked Nick.
"Uhm, nothing…"
"Tell me"
"You don't want to see it," said Kevin.
"Really?"
"Yeah," said Joe.
"Well, guess what; I do want to know what's in there."
"Now, now, calm down little bro," said Kevin, patting Nick on the shoulder.
"You won't like it," reassured Joe.
Nick gave up; there was no use in arguing with his brothers when they were both against him. He buried his anger beneath happy thoughts and changed the subject. He'd have plenty of time to get angry, but later.
"Oh you know what? I'm just gonna go get something to eat, then I'll probably go to the mall to sign a couple autographs."
"Mind if I come?" asked Joe and Kevin in unison.
"Of course not," said Nick, as he looked away and rolled his eyes. He just wanted to stay away from the house, and especially, from Alex.
"I can't believe he did that! I still can't!"
"You just need to relax Alex. It wasn't that bad. At least he did not rape you," said Harper as she rocked sleeping Dean back and forth while Alex laid on her bed, crying.
"It feels like I cheated on Dean. I'll never forgive myself! I'm horrible."
"You need to get that idea off your mind. You didn't cheat on him. The only way you could have been cheating would be…if you actually kissed Nick back."
"No! I didn't kiss him back! Didn't you listen? I tried to push him away, but he brought me closer! I was practically choking!"
"Okay, did you listen to your own words?"
"Hmm…," Alex thought about it for a while, and then wiped the tears of her eyes and smiled, "oh God…thanks Harper. Really. I'm very grateful. You're such a good friend." Alex hugged Harper carefully since she was holding Dean. He woke up confused and whined a little. Alex smiled at him and took him from Harper's arms. She kissed his forehead and hugged him closely. "Oh baby I'm so happy; I'm glad I didn't cheat on your father. It would have been horrible for the three of us, don't you think?" Just then her phone vibrated and played her favorite song. She smiled as she saw the caller ID. She picked it up.
"Hey Dean,"
"Everything okay Russo? How are you? And the baby?"
"We're all good, and we miss you tons."
"I have good news," Alex stood up and rubbed her red puffy eyes as she waited for Dean to speak, "I'm going to visit you all this weekend. I only need to find a place to stay, because I've already packed and everything."
"Gosh Dean! How can you say such thing? You know you can stay at my house."
"But aren't the Jonas Brothers staying in the guest room?"
"Oh…right," Alex was thoughtful for a while and then finally spoke. "We have no choice then. You'll have to sleep with me. My parents will understand if it's only for two nights."
"Alright then. Can't wait to see you again Alex."
"You just have to wait two days that will fly by."
"Yeah. Love you."
"Love you more," she said, and hung up. Dean laughed and pulled on Alex's earrings. She smiled down at him. Harper yawned.
"You sleepy Harper? You can sleep on my bed. I'm taking Dean for a short walk around the block."
"Thanks Alex, I-" but she didn't finish her sentence because she fell asleep on the bed.
"Uhm…you're welcome?" Alex and Dean were giggling as they left the room. Alex placed Dean in his stroller and left the house. Since it was winter, she had used magic to heat up the weather around them a bit, nothing other people would notice. She went to random places and ended up in the hotel where her son had been conceived. She smiled as she remembered. Dean saw her staring blankly at the hotel and made baby noises. Alex shook her head and picked him up from his stroller. He reached for her cheek and stroked it. Alex smiled and looked at her watch. It was pretty late so she headed home.
Alex woke up excitedly and headed for the bathroom. She brushed her teeth and put on a nice comfy outfit. She dressed Dean up in winter clothes herself, since she was trying to get used to the idea of not having magic. She let her hair loose and grabbed the keys to her parents' car. She had told her parents Dean was coming, but not when or where he'd stay. She started the car and headed to the airport.
She was the only one in the airport that was waiting for that flight. It was going to arrive in 5 hours, but she couldn't bear to wait.
