"Well, it's been two weeks since the record released. As you know, we went with a test release in a few select areas." Isaac, (The guy who gave us our record contract.) said as he had us all sitting down for the news of how our record was doing on it's own. "And I would like to conclude, that it is doing fantastic!" He said practically jumping up and down. My heart jumped.

"Really?" Jackson asked. "How many copies have been sold?"

"We sent out five hundred copies to ten local stores. We have sold four hundred-fifty of those copies." It made sense. With my brother's promoting at his store, the three concerts we had done in the past two months, including playing one local dance, we had the desired outcome.

Isaac smiled. "Since the huge successes locally we are sending it out nationwide. We are also dabbling with the idea of you guys doing a music video for promotional reasons."

"A music video?" Harris said, his eyes wide open. "Like, MTV?"

"Exactly. We have several connections there, but we have never had one of our bands do a video for MTV." He sat down at a table in the conference room. "If your record does very well nationally, we are looking at music videos, radio and TV spots, and maybe even a national tour."

"A national tour?" I asked, worried. What if I couldn't finish school. I have to finish school.

"Well it's only natural. I would say we wouldn't tour until at least summer" He said smiling.

I sighed in relief. "Sounds great."

We finished a few things up and before you knew it I was with kissing him as we had stopped for a "rest stop" on the way home.

"So you excited?" He asked.

I laughed. "Do I act not excited?"

He kissed my mouth. "Not at all." He was so cute when he was sarcastic."So I was thinking, since we are going through a ton right now, you don't mind that we aren't getting married right away right?"

"Why would I care?" I asked. "I wasn't planning on us getting married for a little while anyway. I would love to be out of high school."

"Yeah, I would too." He smiled. "I guess I wasn't planning on us getting married right away either."

"Ok." I said smiling.

I went home to school that night and I was going to surprise Victory with the good news. I was waiting for the elevator when the doors opened. I realized Skip had beat me to it. There was Tinkerbelle and Skip macking it out right there on the elevator. My eyes widened. They suddenly noticed I was there.

"I'll take the stairs." I smiled and walked away. Well, they were making out now.

I went to my room and shut the door. I fell back onto my bed. It had been a pretty good day. Touring, that had to be amazing. I could just see myself singing on stage in front of a new crowd everyday. Being with Jason and the band almost every day.

Why was Jason so worried about us getting married though?

I looked down to my ring and pulled it off and put it beside my bed on the nightstand. I sighed. He wasn't having second thoughts right? He had never brought up the fact we couldn't get married right away. We were just engaged and knew we would eventually get married. It had of course been my plan. I always assumed he wanted to get married sooner than I did. Yet, he said he hadn't planned on us getting married right away. That was not like him. Or was it?

"Mind stop thinking." I said smacking my head. I needed to get this out of my friggen head. I want to get married. I do want to get married right?

I got ready to take a quick shower, my mind still racing about Jason. We had to use public showers/restrooms now that I didn't have a roommate. That was the only suckish part.

I went to the restroom and noticed no one else was there. I smiled. "Thank God!" I went over to the shower and closed the curtain. I took off my clothes and put them on the shelf outside the curtain.

I turned on the shower and soaked myself into the water. I needed to forget the issues of today.

"Hyde." I heard Tinkerbelle's voice and I put my head against the side of the shower. "Are you in here?"

"How'd you know?" I asked.

"Your Jamming Jena shirt is out here on the shelf." She said with an embarrassed voice.

"Great." I said reaching for my shampoo.

I heard her step into the shower beside mine. "So, I'm sorry you caught us."

"I've seen much worse." I laughed.

"It was awkward though. Is it always awkward the first time you make out?" She asked. "I mean it wasn't hellacious, it was actually kind of rad. I just felt so awkward to the max."

"Well, making out the first time is not nearly as bad as when you loose your virginity." I said rubbing my vanilla smelling shampoo into my head. Maybe Jason isn't excited about getting married because we had already had sex? I shook my head, stop thinking about it.

"Gawd, is getting horizontal that awkward?"

"The first few times anyway." I said washing the rest of my body. "But get used to making out first."

"Alright." She said with a sigh.

I smiled and turned off the shower.

"So when did you like first make out?"

"I was thirteen." I said thinking suddenly back to Carl. I wrapped my towel around me and got out of the shower. At least I had Jason now. If he still wanted to marry me."I was also drunk."

"Gag me with a spoon!" She asked as she got out of the shower in her heart covered robe. "You like drank at thirteen."

"Yep." I said combing through my hair. Is it because I drink? He drinks though too. "Shouldn't have too. Are you happy to be making out though?"

"Well it's totally wicked." She smirked and flipped her hair. "I am like so into this whole thing. I just hope I'm not being a Joanie."

"You probably aren't." I said before putting my robe on. I had no Idea what a Joanie was, but I bet she wasn't one. I finished getting dressed, wished Victory goodnight and went back to my room. My brain would not shut up though. All I could think about was Jason.

I looked over to the clock. 9:00 PM. It wasn't too late yet. I needed to talk to someone about this, someone who knew what to do and generally what men thought about marriage. Also, someone who was on my side about getting married to Jason.

I picked up my phone beside my bed. I dialed the number and my brother picked up the phone.

"Hello." He said almost more gruffly than I was used to him answering things.

"Steven, it's Jena." I said taken aback slightly.

"Oh, hey. Is everything ok?" He asked suddenly worried.

"Great, I was just wondering if I could talk to Jackie?" I asked. "I'm not disturbing anything right?"

"Nope." He said just as gruffly as he did when he answered the phone. "Jackie!" He called out. I heard some light grumbling in the background.

"She's getting it in the other room. Love ya Jen." He said as I heard Jackie pick up the line.

"Hello?" Jackie asked.

"Hey Burkhart, it's Jena."

"Hello Jena, is everything ok?" She asked the same as Hyde did, slightly worried.

"Yeah, fine. I just needed advice." I said rather hesitantly.

"Ok. If it's about clothes, no you should not wear those chucks. Or those sunglasses, and definitely not one of those poor looking band shirts." She said with the same Jackie heir that normally annoyed me.

"No, it's not about fashion, but thanks for the advice." I said biting my lip. "It's more about wedding stuff."

Her voice suddenly perked up. "Oh, really? Did you set a date or something?"

"No, the opposite." I then proceeded to tell her my problem.

"Oh my gawd, he loves you." She said almost to straight forward. "He is giving you exactly what you want. If he said he guesses he wanted to wait a while, it means he doesn't, but he is doing it for you."

"Really?" I asked with it finally making sense. "Are you sure?"

"Absolutely. It seems you and Jason are great together." She said speaking a little louder, almost projected.

"Give me a break Jackie!" I heard my brother mumble in the background.

"Is everything ok?" I asked.

"Just fine." Jackie said sweetly. "Well, you have to get to homework. Bye Jenifer."

"Bye Jackie." I said hanging up.

I laid back on my bed and crawled under the sheets. Were Jackie and Steven fighting? They were so happy.

I flipped over and closed my eyes as I turned off the lamp.
