Chapter twelve is up and I am soo happy. I hope you guys like it. To give me inpiration I even listened to some Jonas Brothers songs.
Special thanks to xtremejbfan, and jbloverforever (you are so sweet!). I love reviews and I am so surprised at how many I've gotten. I know it's not a lot considering some people have like 100 reviews by there fourth chapter, but for my first fan fiction I think that this is pretty good!
Disclaimer: I do not own the Jonas Brothers, or Lerado's.
Claimer: I own Brittney, Jasmine, their mom, and this plot! And Cassidy!
Brittney's POV
It was a Thursday, and I was happy to say that Nick hadn't called me since Tuesday during lunch. I woke up feeling fully refreshed and in a really good mood. Maybe because I hadn't cried since Tuesday or maybe because I was one day closer to it being the weekend, either way I was happy.
I hummed as I took a shower, got dressed, and even ate breakfast. Finally my sister stopped me in the hallway. "Are you okay?" She asked checking my forehead to see if I had a fever. I just smiled.
"I actually feel great today!" I said and smiled at her. Jazz smiled back.
"So, you and Jerry made up?" She asked and my smile faltered for a second, but then stayed on.
"You could say that." I said not wanting to lie to her anymore. Jazz's smile turned into a full grin.
"Good 'cause you guys are soo cute together!" She said and skipped to her bedroom. When she was gone I rolled my eyes and finished getting ready.
Today our mom was able to take us too school, so we didn't have to get ready as fast. So, all three of us took our time. Finally it was eight o'clock and it was time to go. "Girls, get your backpacks it's time to go." My mom called from the kitchen. I grabbed my backpack off my bed and glanced at the mirror. I looked super cute with my curls framing my face.
"Brittney?!" My mom called again.
"Coming!" I shouted and rushed out of my room. I ran over to the front door and pulled on my Adidas tennis shoes. I slung my backpack onto one shoulder and headed over to the garage door.
My sister and mom were already in the car. Since my sister was there first she got shotgun. I sighed and sat in the back. There was more room in the back anyways. I buckled my seatbelt and sat back already wishing that school was over.
Suddenly you could hear a muffled voice saying 'DJ Danga Dj Danga!' I pulled my cellphone out and looked at the caller id. It said Joe. I sighed and rolled my eyes, he could give me away. I looked up and saw Jazz looking at me questiongly; I just shrugged and flipped my phone open. "Hello?"
"Hey Brit it's Joe." Joe said into the phone. Hello captain obvious.
"I know, I could tell by the ring tone." I said laughing. I heard Joe chuckling on the other end.
"Yeah, I thought I would surprise you. Anyways, I was just wondering if you are still mad at us." I didn't say anything for a moment. I was thinking. Was I mad at them? "Brit, are you still there?" Joe said into the phone.
"Yeah." I replied.
"Good. So, are you gonna answer my question?" He asked.
"Yes. And my answer is that I'm not mad at you or K-Paul, but I am mad at Jerry. He humiliated me."
"Why did you call Kevin Paul and Nick Jerry?" Joe asked.
"Because I'm in the car with my mom and sister?" I whispered hoping that my sister wasn't trying to eavesdrop.
"Ooh, okay. Anyways, I got to go. Talk to you later."
"Bye, Adam." I said and closed my phone. I slipped it into my pocket.
"So, who was that?" Jazz asked trying to sound like she didn't care.
"Adam, I said trying not laugh at my lame lie.
"Oh, and I thought you told me that you and Jerry weren't fighting anymore." Jazz said, I could tell she was trying to take the anger out of her voice.
"We were talking about something else." I lied again. "We were playing video games, and Nick cheated." I explained when Jazz still hadn't said anything.
"Oh." She said back and turned back around to face front. I knew she wasn't happy with my answer. Some part of my mind wondered if she was getting suspicious, but I pushed that thought away. She could never believe that I was friends with the Jonas Brothers.
"Okay girls, we're here. I will see you tonight. Love you." My mom said pulling up into the school parking lot.
"Love you." Jazz and I said in unison. We both got our backpack and jumped out of the car. Immediately Jazz walked over to her friends. I turned and searched the crowd for my friends. I saw Cassidy standing over by the front door alone. When she saw me coming over to her she grinned and waved.
"Hola chica!" Cassidy said happily. She wasn't Spanish. She had light blonde hair, and baby blue eyes. She was the farthest you could get from being Spanish. That was just her favorite greeting.
"Hello girl!" I replied. She laughed. I always translated her Spanish into English.
"I see you got here pretty early." She said making me grin. Since Jazz and I walked to school we were always a few minutes late. Not late enough to get a tardy or detention, but late enough that no one was hanging outside of the school anymore.
"Yeah, my mom dropped us off." I said scanning the crowd. She suddenly saw shaggy sandy blonde hair, and smiled. "You know, I think it's time you ask Chris out. I mean, you've been crushing on him since sixth grade, and now we are freshmen!" I said. Cassidy just blushed.
"Maybe, just not now. I need to think of what I'm going to say." Cassidy said. I decided not to try and push her anymore. Cass was the most sensitive out of the group.
"Okay." Just then the bell rang and everyone started to push into the school. "See you third period!" I shouted and turned the opposite direction that Cassidy was heading. I walked over to my locker and unlocked it. I stuffed my backpack into my locker and began to pull out the things I needed for first period.
Jasmine and I were sitting on the couch watching TV when we heard our mom come home. She walked in and threw her purse and car keys on the kitchen counter. Then she walked into the living room where we were. "Hello girls!" My mom said in her almost always cheery voice. That's one thing I liked about my mom. She was always happy.
"Hi mom, how was work?" I asked her tearing my eyes away from the TV screen. My sister was so absorbed with the show we were watching that she didn't even notice that mom was home.
My mom came and plopped down next to me running a hand through her dark brown wavy hair. "Good. Anyways, I don't really feel like cooking dinner tonight." My mom replied.
"You don't want one of us to cook, do you?" I asked her. We weren't what you would call the best cooks. So far we only knew how to make breakfast foods, and some lunch foods.
My mom just laughed and shook her head. "No! I was going to suggest that we go out to dinner. Do you guys have any requests?"
I nudged my sister into the ribs and she jumped. She turned to face us and gave a confused look to mom. "When did you get home?" She asked. My mom and I just laughed.
"Just a few minutes ago. Anyways, we are going out to dinner tonight. Do you have any requests of where we shall go?" My sister's eye lit up. She loved going out to dinner.
"Yes! Laredo's (don't know how to spell it), I'm craving Mexican." My mom stood up.
"Okay it's decided then. We are going to go to Laredo's in a few minutes. I just want to change first." She said turned and walking into her room.
Jazz and I turned back to the TV and finished watching our show. A few minutes later my mom came back in a nice pair of jeans, and a white blouse. "Okay girls. Let's go!" We followed her out into the garage.
"I call shotgun!" I yelled before Jasmine could say anything. I went and jumped into the front passenger seat while Jasmine sat in the back. My mom started up the car and pulled out of the garage and onto the street.
"How was your day, girls?" My mom asked after a few minutes of silence in the car.
"It was really good today. I got a B plus on my history test!" I said excitdidly.
"As good as a school day can get." My sister said at the same time I spoke. My mom laughed. She knew that we weren't really feeling like talking so instead she turned up the radio. I started to get really into listening to it, and soon we were at the resturaunt.
We walked in and were seated right away. I got a taco, my mom got some Mexican salad, and Jazz got a burrito. Fifteen minutes after ordered our food came. I was starving so I took a huge bit of taco.
"So, let's talk about boys." My mom said suddenly. Jazz and I began to choke on our food. Jazz recovered first.
"O-okay." She said unsurely. I just nodded after taking a sip of my water.
"Jazzy you first, how are you and Austin?" My sister's face lit up. She loved to talk about her boyfriends.
"Well…" She started to talk about her and Austin and I zoned out. Before I knew it my sister was waving her hands in front of my view. I looked up.
"Yeah?" I asked.
"Mom just asked how you and Jerry were." Jasmine said and I got flustered. Now I was going to have to lie to them at the same time.
"W-well, we had a little fight at the beginning of the week, but we made up so everything's good now." I said giving them a fake grin. They both bought it.
"Well, that's good honey. He seems like such a nice boy." At the words 'nice boy' I gripped my fork so hard that my knuckles turned white. Then I stopped gripping so hard and shrugged.
"He is." I said taking a bit of my rice.
We pulled into the garage and got out of the car. "Do you guys have any homework?" My mom asked as we stepped into our dark house. I flicked on the hallway light switch and began to walk toward my room.
"No. We just need to read a few pages of The Outsiders and then we have no homework." I said.
"Okay. We'll, I'm tired so I'm going to go to bed." My mom said walking into her own room.
I walked into my room and left the door open a little bit. Then I zipped open my backpack and pulled out The Outsiders and lay down on my bed. I opened up to page thirty and began to read. I just had to read to page forty and then I was done.
A few seconds into the chapter I thought I heard a noise. I stopped reading and sat up. I sat there for a few minutes listening, but the sound didn't com again.
I shrugged figuring that it was just my imagination. I lay back down onto my bed and settled in again. I opened up the book to page thirty-one and began reading again. I liked the beginning of the book, but at the part where we are now I don't really like it.
A few minutes later I was finally done reading the pages I was supposed to. I put the bookmark into the book and put it in my backpack. My thoughts were still wrapped around the book as I began to change into my pajama shorts. I changed into my pajama shirt and then walked into the bathroom.
I put my hair into a low ponytail and washed my face. Then I brushed my teeth and headed back to my room.
I sat down on my bed and looked around my room. My clock read nine o'clock. I knew that I should be going to sleep since it was a school night, but I wasn't tired. I had already read all the books that I had, so I had nothing to do.
Suddenly I heard a knock on my window. I let out a shriek and jumped off my bed. Then I saw Nick standing outside my window. I put a hand on my heart to try and slow my heartbeat. "Are you okay Brit?" I heard Jazz call from her bedroom.
"Yeah, something fell off of my dresser and scared me, that's all." I replied keeping my eyes on Nick. He gave me a small smile and motioned for me to open the window. I stood there frozen for a second. Part of me wanted to open the window, the other part of me wanted to close the blinds.
Finally I slowly walked over to the window and opened it. Nick took a few steps back and I started playing the guitar. I gaped. I didn't even notice that he had been holding a guitar. Then he started to sing.
"Take my hand tonight
We can run so far
We can change the world to anything we want
We can stop for hours just staring at the stars
They shine down to show us
That you know when the sun forgets to shine
I'll be there to hold you through the night
We'll be running so fast we can fly tonight
And even when we're miles and miles apart
You're still holding all of my heart
I promise it will never be dark
I know we're inseparable
We could run forever if you wanted to
And I would not get tired
Because I'll be with you
I keep singing this song until the very end
We'd have done all these things
You know when the sun forgets to shine
I'll be there to hold you through the night
We'll be runnin' so fast we can fly tonight
And even when we're miles and miles apart
You'll still holdin' all of my heart
I promise it will never be dark
I know we're inseparable
I would give it all
And never let you fall
Cause you know we're inseparable
I would give it all
Just to show you I'm in love
Cause you know we're inseparable
You know when the sun forgets to shine
I'll be there to hold you through the night
We'll be runnin' so fast we can fly tonight
And even when we're miles and miles apart
You'll still holdin' all of my heart
I promise it will never be dark
I know we're inseparable"
I stood there not sure what to say. I had never been serenaded before. Nick put down his guitar and walked closer to my window. The screen was the only thing keeping us apart. "I'm so sorry for hurting your feelings. I really do like spending time with you. I just hope that you can forgive me." He said looking me in the eyes. When I didn't say anything he looked down at his feet. "I would feel much better if you would say something." He said.
I snapped out of my trance and turned and walked out into the hallway. I snuck down and over to the front door which I unlocked and stepped outside into the cold night. I had forgotten to put shoes on so the grass was cold on my bare feet. I shivered as I slowly made my way over to him. He was still standing at my window looking into my room. He looked like a sad little puppy.
I walked up to him as quietly as I could, then I tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around and just starred at him. I smiled at him. "I forgive you." I whispered and he smiled back at me.
Suddenly his arms were around me. I hugged him back and laid my head on his chest/shoulder. "I have a present for you." He said quietly, and fished two tickets out of his pocket.
"These are for you and your sister. There's also backstage passes. 'Jerry' will even take you there." Nick said grinning. I took the tickets from him my eyes huge.
"Thanks! Jazz will be very excited." I replied. I felt so good being in his arms. Reluctantly I pulled away. "I have to go. I have school tomorrow. Plus Jasmine might walk in to say goodnight, and she will surprised to see that I'm not in my room, or in the house for that matter." I said laughing. Nick laughed to.
"Okay, I'll see you on Friday then." Nick said.
"Yep." I said, and before he could say or do anything I reached up and kissed him on the cheek. Then I turned and sprinted back into my house. I snuck back into my room and set the tickets on my dresser. Then I got into my bed and pulled the covers over me. I fell asleep with a smile on my face.
