We went inside, heading towards the stairs to wake everyone up.
"Nick, can you tell everyone breakfast is ready?" Denise said as we passed the kitchen.
"Sure, Mom." We went upstairs to find everyone except Jesi and MJ still asleep. "YO GUYS! WAKE UP!" Nick shouted, "BREAKFAST'S READY!" Everyone slowly started waking groaning at how early it was.
"It's like, 7! It's too early to be up." Joe groaned.
'Come on. We have the show today. You're gonna be my lucky charm, right?" MJ said, kissing Joe. Joe jumped off the bed.
'Okay! Awake!" everyone laughed.
"You are so whipped." Kevin said. We went back downstairs, where we had a huge breakfast. We got ready and piled into the car. Joe, Nick, and Kevin had things to do, so they stayed, saying they would come later. We got to the church where we were performing, and started our day of rehearsal and getting ready.
"During our lunch break, the boys came in wearing the blue polos.
"Hey!" I said, running over and hugging him, "Nice shirt."
"Do you like the back?" he turned around, and on the back, in big letter, it said, "Official Sabrina Fan"
"Oh my gosh! Is that why you guys didn't come earlier? You were making shirts? So Joe's says official MJ fan, and Kevin's says?"
"Official Rondalla fan." We heard a scream, and saw MJ spazzing over Joe's shirt. "Can't say that was unexpected. So what's happening for the rest of the day?"
"Umm, after break, we have last minute rehearsals, getting ready, then the show." We spent the rest of the afternoon preparing, during which all of the parents complimented the boys on their shirts.
"Twenty minutes! We're going upstairs in fifteen!" Elsa, our director said. Karina, Katrina, Jesi, MJ and I went into a corner and did our before show prep.
"Inas!" we said as we did campfire. We were called the inas because we all had "ina" somewhere in our name.
"Hey, Sabrina, you might want to take off the ring if you don't want to get killed by the Titas." Karina said. The Titas, were all the moms. Tita is like the word aunt, except you used it regardless if they we're related to you.
"Um, I can't." I said.
"Why not?" MJ asked. "Is it religou—OH MY GOD! I wanna see it! It's so pretty!" MJ grabbing my right hand, figuring it out that it was a promise ring. The other three were still clueless.
"It's a promise ring. Nick gave it to me this morning." I said, blushing.
"It's pretty. Is that real?" Karina asked.
"Yup. Isn't that sweet?" I asked.
"YES!" MJ said, "I'm jealous. But you can keep Nick." Nick stepped into our circle. "Joe's hotter."
"I agree." I said, joking.
"I feel so unloved." Nick wailed, joking also. We all cracked up.
"Come on! Everyone upstairs!" Elsa said.
"Good luck. See you after." Nick said, giving me a hug and kissing me on the cheek. We stood backstage, waiting for them to call us out.
"The Boston Rondalla!" I walked out, and saw Nick sitting right in front of me. I smiled at him.
The first half went smoothly, and we went back downstairs to change costumes. Then, we went on for the second half. When we got to the song, "Ikaw Ang Mahal Ko", MJ and I shared a smile. "Ikaw Ang Mahal Ko" means "It's You I Love". MJ started doing her choreography. She was the pretty girl all the guys like, and she started flirting with the five guys in front, then rejecting them, and looking for a guy in the audience. Joe hadn't sent he choreography, so he didn't know what was happening. At the end of the song, MJ sat next to him. Everyone started clapping once we finished.
"Ow Ow!" I said from the stage. We finished our set, and walked off the stage after the applause. We went to where the reception was, and saw the guys waiting for us. Each of them was holding a bouquet of roses.
"OMG! Thank you!" We took the roses, and thanked them. Kevin gave Katrina, Karina, and Jesi their own bouquets. I saw my dad walk in. I groaned. "We have to go say hi to my dad. I'm so glad he's leaving right after the reception." I said, making a face. "Wanna come?"
"Sure." I put my instrument away, and started walking towards my dad, still holding the roses, with Nick walking next to me.
"Hi Daddy." I said.
"Hello. You did good."
"Thank You." I turned around, and we walked away. Once we got out of earshot, I leaned into Nick. "Glad that's over." He put his arm around me, and we walked towards everyone. "Yay! Now we can have fun!" I jumped up, and stumbled as I landed. Nick laughed. "Remind me not to jump in heels." We reached everyone else, and had fun, taking crazy pictures. Once we ran out of energy, we sat down on a table in the back corner. A few guitars were sitting on the other tables.
"Sam, Francis, we're borrowing your guitars!" I called to them. They turned and nodded. Nick and Kevin each grabbed a guitar. We just started singing random songs we all knew. We finished one of the High School Musical 2 songs, and heard clapping. We whirled around, and found a few adults clapping.
"You all have wonderful voices." One said.
"Thank you." We chimed, blushing. We talked to them a bit, thanking them for coming and answering their questions.
"Okay guys, go get changed. We're leaving now." Elsa said, coming up to us. We changed into our dresses for the after party at one of the host's house for the performers. After changing we put our instruments and costumes in Jesi's dad's car, since we didn't need them anymore. We went back in the Jonas car, and got to the house, and went down to the basement, where they had and awesome DDR set. We spent the night hanging out and dancing. Then, at ten, Mrs. Jonas came downstairs to tell us we had to go. We went upstairs, and said bye to all the parents. Then, when we got back to the house, we all changed into PJs and hung out again. This time though, MJ and I passed out within the first 10 minutes.
"Guys, I'm gonna go bring Sabrina to bed. She can't really be all that comfortable right now." Nick said, looking over at me.
"Yeah, I'm gonna bring MJ too." Joe agreed.
"'Kay! Goodnight love birds!" Karina said. Joe and Nick each picked up MJ and I bridal style, and carried us to separate rooms. Nick put me down on one of the beds, and I woke up.
"Nick?"
"Hey, go back to sleep. I thought the bed would be more comfortable."
"Okay. Can you stay with me?" I hated being alone. Nick smiled and lay down next to me. I snuggled up to him, and he put an arm around me.
STUDMUFFINSTUDMUFFINSTUDMUFFINSTUDMUFFIN"No! I want to take the next one!"
"But you took the one of MJ and Joe!"
"So?" I opened my eyes to see Jesi and Kevin at the side of the bed fighting over a camera.
"Guys? I'm awake."
"Smooth move!" Jesi said, smacking Kevin.
"OW!"
"Quick question, what were you guys doing?"
"Taking pictures of you guys asleep. And making sure you weren't doing anything." Kevin informed me.
"Kevin, we're in your house." I said.
"Exactly." I heard Nick chuckle.
"What?" I asked.
"It's funny listening to you conversations."
"Oh yeah, and just so you lovebirds know, we're leaving for the farewell brunch in an hour." Jesi said, as they started walking towards the door.
"Okay. By the way, can I see the pictures?"
"Sure. Just give the camera back to me later." Jesi handed me the camera, and she left with Kevin to get ready. I turned the camera on, and flipped to the picture of Joe and MJ."
"Aw, they look cute together." I then flipped to the picture of us.
"I don't know about you, but I think we're cuter than MJ and Joe." Nick said, looking over my shoulder.
"Yeah. I'm gonna go and get dressed. See you downstairs." I went back to my room, and started searching through my suitcase for clothes.
"So, what happened last night?" I asked Kat and Kari, who were looking for things too.
"Nothing. We just talked to Kevin." Kat and Kari exchanged a look. We got changed and brought our stuff downstairs. The boys came down, and put our stuff in the car.
"Have you told her yet?" Denise whispered to Nick. He shook his head. I gave him a questioning look.
"Later." He mouthed. We got in the car, and drove to another host house for a brunch. We got out of the car, and Nick took my hand. "Come on, I'll tell you now." He brought me to the side of the house, away from everyone else, but still in their view. "Well, you know how we're going on tour for the rest of the summer, then in the fall and winter with Miley?"
"Yeah…"
"Well, um, do you want to come with us?"
"Seriously?" he nodded, "Oh my gosh! Yes! Wait, but what about school? And my parents? And when do we leave?"
"Whoa, slow down. My parents already talked to yours, they said okay as long as you get Bs or higher in everything, and Mom'll teach you too. And we leave in two weeks, and get back in January. Then, we get a break, and you go back to school."
"This is so awesome! Is MJ coming too?" Nick sadly shook his head.
"She can't because she has to work for college, and she has to do applications and such."
"Oh, so who's going? You guys, me,"
"My mom, dad, Frankie, the band, Uncle Josh, Kayla, and then later Miley, her dad, and her band."
"Oh. How are the buses being split?"
"Us, you, our family, and Uncle Josh on one, our band on another, then Miley and her dad on one, and her band on another, then one more for all the instruments."
"Wait, you can fit eight people on one bus?"
"Yeah. We got this family bus that can fit ten people.
"Oh. You're getting five tour buses?" he nodded, "Wow, that's a lot." He nodded again.
"So you guys are stopping by my house, then leaving?"
"Yup."
"OH MY GOSH! THIS IS SO AWESOME!" I started jumping up and down. Joe and Kevin ran over, thinking I knew from my happy jumping.
"Dude! We're gonna be stuck together for seven months!" Joe started jumping, and I stopped, my eyes big.
"Seven months stuck with you?" I asked. He nodded. "How am I going to survive?" I wailed dramatically, "Just kidding." We had brunch, and too soon, it was time to go.
"Jesi! Let's go!" Tito Joe, Jesi's dad said. We transferred our stuff into Tito Joe's car, and said our goodbyes. I gave Kevin and Joe each hugs, and stood in front of Nick. He wrapped me in his embrace.
"I'll miss you. We'll be at your house on June 8 at around 5 PM. That's in two weeks. Okay?"
"Okay. I'll see you in two weeks." We stood there, not wanting to let go of each other.
"Okay lovebirds! Let's go!" Jesi said loudly. We broke apart.
"I love you."
"I love you too." Jesi, Katrina, and MJ sat in the car waiting. I got in the car, and the door closed. I waved as Tito Joe backed up and drove away.
"So, what did Nick want to tell you?"
"Well, you know how they're going on tour for the rest of the year?" Jesi nodded, "They asked my parents, and I'm going with them! I just have to do well with the tutor. But it sucks that MJ can't come." I gave her a hug over the back of her seat, "I'm gonna miss y'all. MJ, you need to teach me how I'm gonna survive seven months with you boyfriend. I'm going to go insane!" MJ laughed.
"When are they coming to pick you up?"
"Um, June 8. You should come to my house the day before, and help me pack. Cuz I know I'm going to procrastinate." MJ nodded. We spent the rest of the ride sleeping, writing, reading, listening to music, and texting our friends. For the next two weeks, I finished up school, packed, and said goodbye to my friends. No one knew I was going except for The Inas, a few of my best friends, and my teachers so I wouldn't be bombarded with questions from people. Then, it was the day to leave. I sat in my room IMing and texting people goodbye. MJ was sitting with me, looking through my magazines. The doorbell rang, and we rushed downstairs. I pulled the door open.
"Hey! Hi Mr. and Mrs. Jonas." I knelt down, "Hey Frankie." My parents stood behind me, and MJ had gone on the bus with Joe. The parents greeted each other and we went into the kitchen.
"So, Sabrina will always be chaperoned, right?" My dad asked. Everyone nodded. "Good. Sabrina, we have something for you." My dad reached into his wallet, pulled out an envelope and gave it to me. I ripped it open, and pulled out a debit card.
"Really?" I asked excited. They nodded together.
"We'll put in one-hundred a month. Don't spend too much though."
"Okay! Thank you!" I ran over to my parents and gave them both hugs. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
"Okay, just use it wisely."
"I will! Don't worry." We brought my stuff outside, and Nick and Kevin put it into the luggage compartment. MJ and Joe had come out to say goodbye. "Bye! I'll call and email often." I gave my parents hugs. "Bye MJ." "I'll miss my older 'sister'. I mean, how else will I become corrupted?" MJ laughed. "I'll post loads of pictures and videos on facebook." MJ nodded.
"I'm gonna miss my 'lil sis." She gave me a hug. "And if anything happens, you better tell me." She whispered. I nodded. We all climbed onto the bus, and as the bus backed out, I waved goodbye to my home and parents, preparing for the best and most impacting six months of my life.
