Disclaimer: I only own the Jonas Brothers on days that don't end in 'Y'.

A/N: This chapter is entirely Nick's POV. I had intended to switch it half way through but I was having fun with him and then I found a good spot to end it. Some things happen in this chapter that the JoBros would probably not do, but remember that it's fiction and I can make them do anything I want. Muahaha.

Nick's POV

Angie walked out of the room and we all stared at each other until we heard the door close at the top of the stairs.

"What was that?" Kevin asked.

"That was us talking to Angie and answering questions and making Nick uncomfortable," Joe replied while getting off the floor to sit on the couch opposite us.

"I wasn't uncomfortable," I stated which was slightly untrue.

"No, I mean, how does she know?" Kevin reiterated.

"She doesn't know," I reminded him, "She doesn't even really know if there is anything to know, she only thinks that there is."

It wasn't a big deal, even if she did find out. Who would she tell? Angie would be one of the last people I could see going to the tabloids about us.

"But she seemed pretty determined to find out," Joe commented, staring at Kevin.

"Guys, don't even worry about it," Kevin started, forcing himself to not appear bothered by anything. "If worse comes to worse, I'll just drastically distract her and make her forget about knowing."

Yeah, right.

"Don't worry Kev, I already have her distracted, about everything," I bragged, knowing that it wasn't really true.

"Sure you do," Kevin doubted me. "Because an hour with her this morning definitely did it."

"Probably not, but all night in her bed would," I shoved in his face.

I figured, what's the harm in telling them? Nothing happened, and we did agree to civil with each other about everything. It was all in good fun, right? Not.

Kevin's jaw dropped while Joe just kept on with a goofy smirk.

"What do you mean, in her bed? What did you do, Nick?" he demanded.

"I told her I had a nightmare so I slept in her bed," I grinned, proud of myself.

"And she just let you?"

"Yeah, well, she was sort of asleep but she didn't yell at me when she woke up," I continued. "Nothing happened, nothing like… that… so don't freak out just because I'm getting a head start."

Joe was looking back and forth at us throughout the conversation but it was over as soon as Kevin leaned back and shook his head, almost amused.

"Alright, whatever," he finished.

That's right. Hide your jealousy. Hah.

"So what are you going to do about Angie's mission?" Joe asked Kevin.

"You should probably just tell her," I added. "It's not like you've done anything that she hasn't done. Remember, her and Dom hooked up?"

"Yeah, what does that mean?" Joe intruded. "So they like… fucked or whatever?"

I laughed as Kevin turned to Joe with an astonished face, probably at his wording.

"Get with the times, bro," Joe smiled at him.

"I don't know," Kevin answered finally. "I'm assuming that that's what it means, but I won't ask her."

"You asked her about it in the first place," I reminded him. "You just expected her to tell you all the juicy details."

I was right, of course but he wouldn't admit it.

"Nick, why are we doing this?" he asked, coming out of nowhere.

"What?"

"Why are we doing this? Having this… competition, whatever you want to call it, why are we making a big deal over a girl that we met yesterday and have to say goodbye to in less than a week?"

So, what, we were getting all ethical now? Truth was, I didn't fucking know.

"Truthfully, Kevin," I began, not even knowing what I was going to say next. "Because I've never felt the way that I felt when I looked at her for the first time. And I'm guessing that for you, it was something similar. And if it wasn't, I really hope that you'll let it lie and give up because I'm not joking."

Where the hell had that come from? Never-the-less, I looked right at him and he returned my stare.

"Wow, Nick," Joe offered, "that was deep."

There was silence for a few more moments and I went from being embarrassed for saying what I had to hopeful that Kevin would back down to fearing that he was going to punch me in the face. There were so many emotions running across his visage that I lost track of what he may or may not have been thinking.

"I respect that Nick," Kevin said finally. "But I know that I felt some sort of connection with Angie and I can't let it lie until I know for sure whether or not she felt it too."

God damn it.

We really were getting in way over our heads, both of us. What I wanted to know though… why were both Kevin and I admitting to such things and getting in the direct path of pain, because we both knew that we had to leave in just a few days?

Sure, there was this fantasy that was playing in my mind, Angie would realize that I was amazing and worth loving so she would leave her life to come on tour with me and be with me forever. That would be fantastic. But there were two things that were itching at my whole body. One was that she would realize that she liked Kevin more. The other was that there was no way in bloody hell that she would leave everything that she'd worked so hard for.

Not to mention her ridiculous claim at professionalism when it was obvious that she wanted to throw it all away and jump my bones. Wasn't it?

"Then I guess, brother, we'll wait and see what happens," I said.

Kevin nodded. "It seems so."

"But there won't be any hard feelings over anything, right?" he double checked.

"I'll try," I promised. I couldn't lie and say that I wouldn't be bitter if Angie did somehow, miraculously get with Kevin.

"Me too," he said.

"Good, now that that's over," Joe said, pretending like he was just waking up.

Sometimes, I was really grateful that Joe was my brother. Like seriously, he knew the exact right moments to add in some comedy. Of course, he did it at the wrong moments too, but I always knew that Joe would be there to say something funny. It was great, you know?

I smiled at him before throwing a couch pillow towards him.

"Hey, buddy," he responded, "this aggression is not appreciated."

"Should we go help them?" Kevin suggested.

I nodded and stood to walk upstairs with my brothers behind me.

Angie was at the counter again, researching on the laptop and Lesley was next to her chatting away on the phone. There was the distant sound of a screw gun but you could only hear it when Lesley took a breath.

"Do you need help with anything?" I asked Angie once I was standing next to her.

"No, don't worry about it," she responded. "There's not that much to do. The guys went to get planks and some others are going to bring in all the deck chairs."

"So what should we do?" Joe asked while rocking back and forth in place.

"Hang out," she told him with a grin.

"By ourselves?" I asked. That was just a ridiculous idea. Angie was going to have to hang out with us, that's all there was to it.

"No, I'll hang with you," she said. Yessss!

"So, what should we do first?" I asked, really excited. "We can braid hair or paint fingernails or get in the Jacuzzi naked."

See what this girl does to me?

"I can braid your hair?" she asked, her eyes going wide. "Would you let me do that? You should let me cornrow it, that would be awesome."

"Umm…. I was sort of joking," I replied. Although the thought of fingers in my running through my hair did sound pretty nice.

"You can braid my hair," Joe offered and Angie gave him a high five.

"You are, by far, the best Jonas for letting be do that," she said, giving both Kevin and me looks.

"Now just wait one second," I said. "I was joking but that doesn't mean that I won't let you."

"Angie, you can definitely braid my hair if it makes you happy," Kevin told her with a wink.

Bastard.

"You guys are so funny," she said with a laugh. "If I asked you to jump in the pool with all your clothes on right now, would you?"

"You want me to right now?" I asked, turning towards the door to the deck.

She grabbed my arm and pulled me back, laughing the whole time. See? I made her laugh and she wanted me to stay. Nick J was doing just fine.

"What about that Jacuzzi idea though, that sounded pretty appealing," Kevin added.

I tried not to glare at him as Angie turned to face him and studied him for a moment.

"You know," she started, "that does sound really nice right now. But the only one big enough is in the Orange bathroom so I'd have to ask Astrid and Bethany and this one over here."

She pointed to Lesley who was still sitting there gabbing away animatedly.

Joe winked at Angie and moved over to lean towards Lesley and give her some puppy dog eyes.

"Oh, Les," he said in a innocent voice. "Do you think it would be alright if I took a Jacuzzi with your lovely homeowner?"

She just nodded and winked at him before going back to her conversation which I think had turned to whether Prada or Coach was better.

"Lesley says it's okay which means that the others will say okay too, so let's go!" Joe demanded while pulling Angie by the arm towards the stairs.

"Okay, but we can't be naked, that's against Jonas rules," she teased.

"What?" Kevin exclaimed, "That was the best part!"

"You guys are so bad," she laughed. Joe was pulling her up the stairs and not wanting to miss a thing, Kevin and I were both following closely.

"I'm wearing a bathing suit," Angie continued. "You guys can go naked if you want."

"I never said anything about us being naked," I joked with her. Listen to me, Nick Jonas, bad boy extraordinaire.

"Let's make a deal," Kevin tried. "I'll tell you my secret if we go naked."

He wasn't being serious, I knew that much but it was a clever move.

"So you do have a secret!" Angie exclaimed as she forced Joe to stop so she could turn around and stare at him. But Joe, being Joe, didn't realize that she'd stopped and was pulled backwards by his grip on her arm and fell into the wall.

"What the fuck was that?" he said while standing quickly and brushing off his shoulders.

I burst off laughing and took the opportunity to steal Angie by putting my arm around her shoulders and leading her down the hall.

"Nick, we need to go upstairs to get clothes," she reminded me while still laughing at Joe.

"No we don't, we're going naked," I told her, giving it one last shot.

"I am not going naked," she said while poking me in the side, trying to get away. Got damn me being ticklish.

She did, she got away but Kevin grabbed her as she tried to run past him. He took hold of her waist and threw her over this shoulder which gave me a great view of her ass, I must say. Angie couldn't even pretend to be mad, she was laughing so loud and only partially trying to hit his back to let her down.

I should have thought of doing that.

He ran with her to the Orange bathroom and Joe shut the door after we were all in.

"Kevin, let me down," she begged.

"We're going naked," he replied with a chuckle.

"We are not!" she screamed. "You boys would never get naked all together, don't even say that you would. Let me down."

She had a great point, but she didn't know for sure.

"I can't let you down Angie, this is a matter of life or death," he said. "Either we go naked or we all die."

She stopped squirming and went a bit limp.

"You know, you'll get tired pretty soon," Angie told him. "Either that or I could just bite your ass really hard, I'm in the perfect position to do so."

With that, Kevin swung her forward and set her on her feet.

"My ass is much too precious to be bitten."

Once she had her balance back, she ran into the next room and slammed the door with a loud 'hah!'

Clever thing.

"I'm borrowing one of Lesley's suits," she called. "So if you all want to be naked together, that's fine but I won't be."

Shit. She had us, she'd won.

"God damn it," I said. "Kevin, you're a dick, why'd you let her down?"

"I was scared she was going to bite my ass, she seems like the type that would," he said honestly.

"You should have taken the sacrifice," I told him with a smirk.

"Yeah, like you would have," he said.

At this point, Angie came back in wearing a bikini. Good god. I'm pretty sure that all three of us were staring at her with out jaws dropped.

"What?" she asked with a small smile. "You've never been to the beach and seen a girl in a bikini?"

She turned the water on and waited until it was full, all the while none of us saying a word.

"Well, are you coming in?" she asked as she stepped into the water.

I immediately ripped my shirt and socks off and tried to look out my peripherals to see if Joe really was going to go naked. He kept his boxers on and so did Kevin, thankfully so I followed suit and we all stepped in. It wasn't that big and our knees bumped into each other but I made sure to position myself so I was sitting next to Angie and Kevin did the same for the other side.

It was like Joe knew, he shouldn't get involved. Two of us was more than enough and there were plenty of other girls to flirt with in this house. If only Kevin would realize that too.

"Okay, ready?" Angie asked while leaning over the side to turn the jets on.

I was very aware that our thighs were touching but I tried to relax as water shot into my back and calves.

"This is a little piece of amazing," I commented.

"True story," Angie agreed while playfully bumping Joe's knees out of the way so she could scoot further down.

"Angela, I'd like to let you know that your knees are dangerously close to my… package," Joe commented, making us all laugh.

"Don't pretend that you don't like it," Angie shot back at him. She closed her eyes and leaned her head back against the edge before raising it up again, apparently dissatisfied with the positioning of it.

"Here," I volunteered, putting my arms around her shoulders so she could lean on it. Such a sacrifice for me to make, but I'm just such a sweet guy.

"You're a doll," she said, approving of her new pillow.

"So," Kevin began while taking hold of her hand and lacing her fingers with his. "I don't believe that you finished through on the deal we had."

Good show, man, excellent idea.

"That's very true," I added. "I didn't get to ask you the amount of questions that we agreed upon."

"Oh man, here we go," she said, pretending to sound aggravated but she opened her eyes to wink at me.

Score Nick Jonas! Score!

"Don't pull that, you love to be interrogated," Kevin informed her.

"Do you realize that I am in a Jacuzzi with the Jonas Brothers, all of whom are wearing only boxers?" she asked.

"I was pretty sure that that was the situation," Joe said.

"Yeah well, that's crazy," she said.

"Hey, there are a million girls that would eat babies to be in your position right now," Kevin said.

She gave him a funny look before smiling and returning to resting her head on my arm with her eyes close.

"But I'm supposed to be professional about all this and--"

"Oh, drop that whole act, we see right through it," I teased her. "You're pleased as punch and you want to tell us everything."

"I'm pleased as punch?" she asked me with a smirk on her face. "I didn't know that punch could be pleased."

"You know what," I said, poking her side under the water, trying to tickle her.

She sat up and slapped me playfully.

"Hey, I'll go sit with Joe," she threatened, but I knew that she was just joking.

"No no, that won't be necessary," Kevin said quickly, pulling her against his chest. "I'll protect you."

He'll protect his own ass, more like.

"Fine, fine, I'll give in," she relented.

"Yay!" I said, not caring if I sounded silly. Hey, a guy could say yay, right? Ollie said to be myself. I say yay sometimes.

"Me first," I added.

"Alright, Nicholas, what do you want to know," she asked, leaning back to sit upright again.

"Everything," I responded.

"That's not a question," she said, giving one of her faces that she does. How do I describe it? It was almost sultry but… not at the same time. I just liked it, that's what I knew.

"Everything?" I asked again, making the word sound like a question.

She giggled and tapped my cheek playfully.

"Kevin could always go first," she teased.

Was it just me, or was it almost impossible to keep my eyes on her face? I mean, I'm a nice guy and I try to be respectful but I couldn't help it. They were just right there, staring me in her face, her… what's the correct term? Nungas? That's a good one. Her nungas, just hanging out, almost literally.

Ah, lovely. I smirked at her and asked one question that I've been dying to ask.

"Who's your favorite Jonas Brother?"

"Joe," she said instantly.

Aw, what the fuck?
