No One's POV
Brittney's phone went off the morning after she went to the Jonas Brother's concert. With a groan Brittney rolled over in her bed and took her phone off of her nightstand. "Hello?" She said groggily into the phone snuggling deeper into the warm blankets. She wasn't a morning person at all. "Hey Brit, it's Nick." Brittney's eyes flew open and she sat up a bit. "Oh, hey. What's up?" Brittney asked a little confused. Since when did he call her Brit?
"Did I just wake you up?" Nick asked and Brittney blushed happy he wasn't right there to see her.
"Um…Kind of."
"I'm sorry; Joe and I just wanted to know if you wanted to go have some breakfast somewhere?" Nick asked sounding hopeful. Brittney looked at the clock, it was nine thirty in the morning.
"At nine thirty?" She asked her eyes widening.
"Well, yeah. Why?" Brittney groaned and pushed the covers off of her and got out of bed.
"I don't eat breakfast until twelve on the weekends. Hell, I'm not even awake by eleven on the weekends." Brittney said laughing a bit. Nick laughed with her then fell silent. "So do you?" He asked a bit nervously.
"Sure." Brittney said opening her dresser and looking through for something cute to wear. "Cool, we'll pick you up in a few minutes."
"Okay, see ya then." Brittney said and hung up. She only had a few minutes to get dressed; she didn't even have time to shower! Brittney threw on grey sweats and dark blue tank top. She put her hair up into a ponytail and washed her face. Just as she was finishing brushing her teeth she heard a car drive into her driveway. She washed her mouth and ran down her stairs and over to the front door. "Mom, I'm going out to breakfast with some friends." She shouted slipping on her tennis shoes and opening the front door.
"Which friends?" Her mom said coming out from the kitchen. Brittney hesitated before speaking. She couldn't tell her their names so she had to make up something.
"Oh, just these guys I met yesterday. They're home schooled and are really nice." Her mom was about to say something when Nick walked up to the front door. He had the same hat he had worn yesterday on and his red aviators on. You couldn't tell it was him at all. "Hey Brit, you ready?" He asked stepping into the house. Brittney nodded and was about to walk outside when her mom walked forward and stuck her hand out.
"Why hello! I'm Lori, Brittney's mom." Nick took her hand and shook it.
"Hi, Lori, I'm Jerry." Nick said it so smoothly it was like he rehearsed it. Brittney was happy that he wasn't really telling a lie. It was part of his name, even if it wasn't his first. Brittney's mom smiled and spoke. "Are you two going out?" Brittney blushed a deep red and Nick laughed a little uncomfortably.
"Um…Yes, we are actually." Nick said. "What, Brittney didn't tell you?" Nick turned and looked at Brittney as if to say 'I can't believe you didn't tell her'. "Brittney and her sister don't really like to tell me this stuff. I usually find out when they come over." Brittney's mom said laughing. "Well anyways, you two have fun!" She turned and walked back into the kitchen.
"Ready to go?" Nick asked and Brittney nodded. She was still surprised at Nick's answer. She followed him to the car like a lost puppy. Nick opened the back door for her and she stepped into the car and sat down. He closed the door and got into the passenger seat at the front. They both buckled up and Joe spoke. "You guys took forever! I'm starving!"
"Hello to you too sunshine." Brittney said sarcastically and Nick laughed. Joe pulled out of her driveway and began to drive down the street. "So where are we going?" Brittney asked starring out of the windows at the houses passing by.
"Only the best place ever to go eat pancakes! The Pancake Café!" Joe said as excited as a little kid. Brittney laughed.
"I love that place! They have really great chocolate chip pancakes. I get them every time I go there."
"Every time?" Nick and Joe asked at the same time.
"Yeah, we don't go there a lot and we don't make chocolate chip pancakes a lot so it's like a real treat, ya know?" Brittney said with a sigh.
"Yeah, I know. Our parents are like that with some things. It can suck." Nick said just as the pulled into the parking lot of the Pancake Café. Joe got a parking space close to the restaurant and they got out. Brittney hoped to God that no one would recognize them. As they walked into Brittney was happy to find that it wasn't really busy. She hated waiting, when it came to food she was a very impatient person. They were seated right away and Nick and Joe looked carefully at their menus. Since Brittney already knew what she wanted she sat and waited for the waitress to come take their orders.
The waitress came over with a pad and a pencil. "Hi, I'm Maggie and I'll be your waiter today. Are you ready to order?" They all nodded and Maggie turned to Brittney.
"I'll have the chocolate chip pancakes." Brittney said and Maggie wrote it down.
"Anything else?" She asked and Brittney shook her head. Maggie turned to Nick who sat on Brittney's left. "I'll have the strawberry waffles with a side of bacon and toast." Nick said closing his menu and handing it to Maggie.
"White or wheat?" She asked almost automatically.
"Uh…Wheat, it's healthier." Nick said smiling. Maggie wrote it down and turned to Joe. "And you?" Joe grinned.
"I would like the French toast with bacon and eggs, sunny side up, on the side. Oh, and a small glass of orange juice." Maggie wrote it down and took his Menu.
"I will be back with your food soon." Maggie said and walked off to the kitchen. Joe stood up and spoke. "I gotta go to the bathroom; I'll be back in a sec." He turned and walked away. Brittney took this moment alone with Nick as an opportunity to talk to him about earlier.
"So about earlier, why did you tell my mom that we were dating?" She asked and thought she saw Nick blush, but it went away so quickly she wasn't sure. "Well, why else would you be hanging out with a guy so much. Alone. Then you don't have to lie to your mom and say you hanging out with your friends, and to tell your friends to tell your mom that you were hanging out with them. So it's easier." Brittney saw the reason in what he said and nodded. They both fell silent and Brittney suddenly became very interested in her nails.
Joe came back a few minutes later and filled up the silence with his craziness instantly. After he had sat down he reached across the table and took some of Brittney's hair. He looked at it and played with it a bit. Then he began to pull the curls down and letting them go. He watched them bounce back up and laughed. "Nick, you got to try this. It's actually really fun." Brittney blushed a little and Nick shrugged. He gently pulled down one of her curls and watched it bounce back up. He laughed. "For once, you are right Joe. This is fun." Brittney laughed and Joe looked up and glared at Nick. "Hey! I'm right a lot!" Nick opened his mouth and was just about to say something when their food arrived.
Brittney poured some maple syrup onto her pancakes and began to eat. She loved eating chocolate in the morning. She always felt happy after eating it. They were all very hungry so they didn't eat anything for the first minutes. They just ate. Finally Joe managed to say something between bites of food. "Huh?" Brittney said.
"I said, do you think you are gonna be able to finish your pancakes?" He had obviously noticed that she had slowed down.
"Maybe, I don't know yet. We're just going to have to see." Brittney said taking another bit of her pancakes. Joe shrugged and just kept eating. A few bites later, Brittney pushed her plate toward Joe and sat back in her chair. "It's all yours." She said rubbing her stomach to indicate that she was full. Joe smiled and brought the plate closer to him. He finished his food and began to eat the rest of her pancakes. A few minutes later he had eaten all of her pancakes as well.
"Damn, he eats like a pig." Brittney said under her breath and Nick laughed. Brittney looked over at him smiling; he had heard what she had said. "What's so funny?" Joe asked looking from Nick to Brittney.
"Nothing." Nick and Brittney said at the same time and stopped laughing.
"Whatever." Joe said. He went over to the front desk and paid. He motioned for Brittney and Nick to come over. They walked out of the restaurant and walked over to the car. They got in and they're song S.O.S. came on. Brittney almost squealed. "This is my favorite song of yours." Brittney said smiling and began to mouth along to it.
"Really?" Nick said and looked back at Brittney. Brittney nodded. Nick turned back to the front and began to sing along to the song. It gave Brittney confidence so she began to sing along too.
"Ooh, this is and S.O.S. don't wanna second guess this is the bottom line it's true! I gave my all for you, now my hearts in two and I can't find the other half! It's like I'm walking on broken glass! Better believe that I bled!" Brittney looked up to see Joe and Nick starring at her. Luckily they were at a stop light so they wouldn't get into a car crash. "What?" Brittney said blushing a bit; she never should have started singing! She was a horrible singer, even if her sister and mom said otherwise.
"You are a really good singer!" Nick said.
"Why didn't you tell us that you could sing?" Joe asked. Brittney smiled and blushed even more.
"I didn't know I did. I'm in choir and all that, but I never thought I was a really good singer." Nick and Joe looked shocked at this.
"Well you are! You should sing with us sometime!" I shook my head.
"But then my sister would find out. Everyone would find out!" Nick and Joe looked disappointed.
"Yeah, I guess your right." Nick said and they both sat forward again. The rest of the car ride back to her house was silent. When the pulled in Nick offered to walk her up to her front door. "Sure." Brittney said and they both got out of her car.
"Do you want to hang later today?" Nick said once they reached her front porch. Brittney shook her head.
"I wish I could, but I promised my mom I would do chores around the house and boring stuff like that. Oh and by the way, sorry about my sister freaking out and saying I love you to you guys during the meet and greet." Nick laughed.
"It's okay, we get that a lot. But if you had said that I would have been really surprised." Brittney smiled.
"I thought I told you one Friday that I wasn't like that." She opened her front door and walked in. She waved good bye to Nick and closed the door. She wished that she could let Jasmine know everything, but she couldn't. She promised Nick, Joe, and Kevin that she wouldn't. She sighed and walked over to her sister's room.
Jasmine was lying on her bed reading a magazine. When she saw Brittney walk in she sat up. "Where were you?" She asked.
"Nowhere." Brittney said smiling.

It was Monday morning and Brittney was in her first period class. She had had such a busy weekend it felt like she hadn't been in school for weeks. She was bored out of her wits and kept zoning out. Brittney gathered her things and walked out. She walked over to her locker and opened it. She stuffed her folder and notebook in and was just about to take out her math binder when her cell phone vibrated. Turning her back to the hall Brittney took her cell phone out and looked at it. It was Nick. "Hey Nick, what's up?"
"Can you hang?" Nick asked Brittney could hear Joe and Kevin laughing in the background.
"No, I can't." She said closing her locker.
"Why not?" He asked sounding disappointed.
"Because today is a Monday, and I have school on Mondays! And Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, all the way to Friday!" Brittney said and heard Nick laugh.
"Oh yeah! I can't believe I forgot. I am so happy I don't have to go to school." Nick said and Brittney scowled.
"Yeah, you are so lucky. Um, I gotta go. I can't be late to second period or I get detention."
"Okay, bye." Nick said and Brittney hung up. She stuck her phone in her pocket and looked up to see Jasmine and some of her friends walking over to her.
"Were you talking to your boyfriend?" Jasmine said looking totally pissed off. Brittney blushed and spoke.
"Did mom tell you?" She asked ignoring her Jasmine's friend's whispers.
"Yes! And how do you think I felt hearing that you have a boyfriend from mom! You should have told me right away. This is your first boyfriend after all!" Jasmine almost shouted. Brittney winced.
"Sorry, I didn't really want to tell anyone right away. It's just that mom met him when he came to pick me up." Jasmine looked even madder. She just turned and walked away making Brittney feel like she wanted to cry. She and Jazz never fought, and now Jazz was really mad at her. She turned and walked into Math class.
Most of Jasmine's friends were in her class so she was almost battered with questions during the whole period. She tried to ignore them and finally couldn't take it. "Do you think that if I didn't tell Jasmine about this that I will tell you?" She asked glaring at them. They fell silent and went back to work. When Brittney turned back around she could hear them whispering. She knew that what she had just said was going to be repeated back to Jasmine. She had to find a way to make this up to her. She hated when people got mad at her.
Suddenly she had a brilliant idea. She knew just the way to make Jasmine forgive her. It was totally fool proof. She smiled and silently began to work things out in her head. This was all going to blow over and they would be like best friends again, instead of worst enemies.
