Please enjoy

James Stevens

Damn

Nick PoV

I stared at the name, Stevens, like Angel's last name, it was her father. Damn it, her father had escaped from prison.

Why, when everything was just going good, something would ruin it completely.
I finally, we all finally thought Angel was safe with us. She was, but would she be so certain about that.

I looked at Angel. Her own arms hugging her tightly, but she had a very soft expression on her face.

'You okay?' I asked her. She nodded and moved to the notepad, still lying on the table.

I'm not going to let him hurt anyone again. Not you, not me, I refuse to…

I shot her look, I was so proud of her. I knew she was probably scared to death, I mean, I could feel it.

Still, she tried, maybe a little for us. To be strong. I vowed right then and there, never ever to let anything hurt her. Not her father, not anything.

Joe, Stella, Kevin and Macie all glanced over my shoulder. 'Aww, Angel!' Stella smiled.

Kevin just hugged her softly, while Joe high fived Macie, I mean, you could call this some sort of a break through.

A soft tear ran over Angel's cheek. She looked at me; I saw fright in her eyes. I winked, and I hoped I gave her a look that told her what I just vowed.

Once again she wrote something on the notepad, thanks, but your choco is getting cold and I want to know what's in the article. Please?

I smiled, realising she didn't want to talk about her father and walked back to the table, Angel following close behind. We both grabbed a side of the paper and found the article they probably wanted us to read.

It was an article about the CCC's! Our names were in it a lot! Even Angel, Stella and Macie were in it!

I glanced aside, Angel was still reading, but finished the story short after me. She beamed at me. She knew this had been my dream for like, forever!

I glanced at the clock, talking about concerts, we had one tonight and we were supposed to rehearsal some songs and moves in the stadium in about an hour.

Luckily it was a concert right here in LA. 'Guys, we probably should get ready, we got to go to the rehearsal.' I said to Kevin and Joe.

I didn't like leaving right now, but we needed to rehearse with the dancers.

'You're right Nick, we should.' Kevin said and immediately after that answered Macie's unspoken question. 'Sorry girls, I don't think Thom will like you coming, but I have to be really wrong if he doesn't have 3 little backstage passes for tonight.' He said and winked.

I looked at Angel, eyes wide. I remembered this was probably going to be one of her first concerts ever. Coming with that it also was our first concert with her. I smiled; I'd love to let her hear some of our songs. Right there, I got a brilliant idea

Kevin PoV

We sat in the limo, Joe Nick and me. On our way to the lightning stadium. We were supposed to give a concert, organised by Disney.

We had rehearsed before, but I hadn't thought about it since the day Angel got in our lives.

She owned us, owned us I tell you.

We got greeted by Thom and the technical crew. Thom let us work hard, that was why he was Thom and no one else.

We did a lot of songs and practised some dance moves we had to do. They had to be done good, if we wouldn't move the right way we would get in the way of the dancers and not funny close to the fireworks.

All the songs went pretty well, although I had to get used to the new guitar I was using. Joe's voice was a bit hoarse, so I got him a protein drink when we got a break from Thom, who was distracted by Nick. Nick had some or another request, I didn't know what, but knowing my little brother, it would be good!

I brought the protein drink to Joe, along with a banana. 'Thanks man.' He thankfully accepted the drink, but frowned at the banana. 'Where'd you get that?'

I pointed at the table with drinks on it. 'They got a fruit basket.' Joe looked thrilled at my answer. 'Really, that's so cool!'

He looked at the table and his eyes widened. 'aaaaaaah!' He half screamed.

'What?' I asked worried, maybe he hurt himself. 'There's a kiwi in that!' he pointed at the basket.

I immediately understood, Joe hated Kiwi's, deeply, deeply hated them. I rolled my eyes 'It's just a kiwi Joe. Get over it.'

Joe was now glaring at the kiwi, as if it was going to fade away if he just kept looking at it. 'I could get it for you, so you can throw it away?' I asked.

He just waved my question away and stood up, leaving the protein drink behind. He walked towards the table and the fruit basket.

'AAAAH! NO! THERE ARE TWO OF THEM!!!' He yelled after he glanced at the basket, quickly half running away from it.

I grabbed his drink, rolling my eyes again and followed him.

After we were done with the rehearsal, we got back with a normal car. I was driving, Nick in the passengers seat and Joe in the backseat.

'The concert tonight is going to be awesome!' The backseated person said.

I agreed. 'Yeah, I hope the fans will like it.' I put my vision back to the road.

'Definitely, but I want you guys to learn some more then the songs we rehearsed today.' Nick said in a mysterious voice. Getting confused looks from me and Joe.

He just smiled and held up some papers.

'Read it, like it, dream it if you have to. Just learn it, please?' he said. I shrugged, I always liked to play guitar and play new songs. This was probably a new song Nick wanted to try out. Of course Joe wanted some more explanation.

'Why on such a short note, bro?' he asked, leaning in between our seats.

'You'll see, it's just something to make sure Angel likes her first concert with us.' I looked aside. What he said was true, I hadn't even thought about it like that.

'Smart one, lil' bro.' I said, looking back at the road, we were almost there. 'Joe, will you take my paper from Nick, you can give it to me later.'

'Sure.' He said and put the papers in his bag as we stopped at the house. We all jumped out, Nick first, of course.

'I hear music.' Joe stated, tilting his head to the right, listening.

I also heard a familiar tune coming from inside the house. 'That's live to party…' Nick said. He was right, that was our song.

We walked inside, finding Angel sitting next to the CD-player. She obviously was listening to one of the CD's dad gave her.

I grabbed the guitar standing close by the door and started playing with the song. Joe fell in immediately.

Angel looked up, surprised. The music just got live.
Her face broke into a typical man-I'm-so-glad-to-see-you kind of face. She got up from the floor and jumped in Nick's arms. For a few seconds she looked like one of those cute monkeys, hanging on to their mothers, their safety. She quickly let go. Bits ashamed of her enthusiastic greet.

Still she hugged me and Joe too, before going back to the CD player. The next song was play my music.

I noticed Nick tapping his foot to the beat and Joe swinging his hips just a little. Hmm, idea!

I started to dance, really crazy like to the music. They at first looked weird at me, but Joe quickly joined me.

Angel laughed, mouthing, not singing the words from the song.

She and Nick also joined us, and before we knew it we were all dancing to our own songs.

Not like we had rehearsed today, just for fun and really crazy. Just the four of us. I grabbed Angel's hands and swinged with her from side to side. She even spinned a few times. She reacted to touch so much better these days. Sweet little thing.

We had a lot of fun, until Angel fell down exhausted on the couch. We all stopped and laughed at her. Her face was just so, happy looking right now as she laid there, small and heavily breathing from the dancing. I sunk to the ground also. I saw Joe sit against the couch and Nick sat down next to Angel. She wrote something on her little notepad.

Music helps… it said.

Yeah, it did…

That night, Macie and Stella came over early; normally they would stop by after dinner. Today they were here early, earlier then we expected. The show wasn't supposed to start in another 2 and a half hours. They said they were coming for Angel.

Why, they didn't tell us, but I could figure out the great lines by the look on Stella's face, she always wore that look when she had made a really great peace of art out of one of her clothes.

I had been right. About an hour later they came down again, Angel with them. Looking, like Angel, Stella did her job well, but different.

She was wearing skinny jeans, tighter then the ones she usually wore, but the fabric looked soft, so her wounds should be able to bear it.

She wore grey with purple converse and a long sleeved white top.

She was pretty stunning and perfect for going to our concert.

Stella had already picked our outfits quite a time ago, so that wasn't a problem.

T-shirt with jacket, skinny jeans and sneakers for Nick. Blouse and jeans with boots for Joe and for me; a button up shirt, a pair of black pants and leather-white boots. Fake, of course.

We took the limo, naturally and it was one hell of a stunt to actually get to the stadium. The place was covered with people.

I saw Angel looking out of the window, amazed and maybe even a thrilled expression on her face.

I hope she could handle the screaming.

Macie, seating in between me and Joe, just looked happy she was here with us in stead of out there. Not that she hadn't liked back out there, but you get the point.

Stella was calm, she was used to it.

We all got backstage and we made ourselves ready for the concert, it was going to be great!

I saw Angel 'talking' to Nick. I hated the fact that she didn't talk, but understood it also. I just wanted to hear what her voice was like. Right now she was probably writing about the concert, I hoped this would make her forget a bit about her father and the fact she didn't talk a lot.

I hoped Nick's surprise or whatever it was, turned out good.

'Oh yeah!' Joe sang the last words.
The concert had been great, the fans were fantastic and I got one of my old guitars. One I was used to.

I saw the girls standing half hidden backstage. Looking at the concert from there. I gave them a wink.

Stella laughed, Macie only had attention for Joe and Angel seemed to enjoy her self by softly mouthing the words to the songs.

I played one more note and the song ended.

Wow, this was so great!

'Hey everybody!' Nick said in the microphone so the whole stadium could hear him. 'So guys, you enjoying?' He asked.

The stadium went nuts. 'Yeah, I thought so too!' Joe cheered.

'So, you guys don't know the next song. It's completely new, to you anyways, but it is dedicated to a really special person. She came in our life a while ago and we all embraced her in our hearts, you would do the same, I swear!' Nick went on with his story. 'This song belongs to her, our little sis', the new Jonas sister and our lovely Angel. We love you, enjoy her song everyone.'

The crowd cheered enthusiastically. This was new to them and I could tell the were really excited, about the new song and Angel.

We started to play the song he gave us this afternoon. I recognised the tune.

I thought I was cool
But I just looked a fool for so long,
Now you're gone, now you're gone,

Don't speak to me,

don't speak to me

I recall all the fights
Most of all, all the times where you would lie in my arms
Now you're gone, you're gone
Don't speak to me, don't be lying

There's a lot you don't notice
when you read between the lines
The future's out of focus,
when you're blinded by the light.
It's a hope for all the hopeless
In the worst of trying times
I resort to being speechless
Cause our love won't survive
Our love won't survive

Don't speak a word
Don't speak to me,

don't speak to me

There's a lot you don't notice
when you read between the lines
The future's out of focus,
when you're blinded by the light.
It's a hope for all the hopeless
In the worst of trying times
I resort to being speechless
Cause our love won't survive

Nick ended the song, all of the fans screamed their lungs out, like it seemed.
I looked to the side again and saw one of the most wonderful images ever.
Angel was standing there, tears in her eyes, but also, the brightest smile ever on her lips.
She had recognized the song, her song.
I had to sweep away a few tears to. Saw Joe do the same, but Nick made no attempt to.
He was just looking at Angel, a smile on his face and I realised what this song and him singing it must mean to Angel.
Damn was I proud of my little brother!

Yeah, happy chapter, I knew I could do it!
So the kiwi thing actually happened to me today. Only not with Joe Jonas, but with me and my friend Mesh.
I really do hate those disgusting things, no offence.
I'm really proud of this chapter; I think I needed to dig a bit in to Angel's happiness after breaking through her wall.
