A/N: GAH! I HATE LITTLE BROTHERS! My four year old brother deleted everything of this chapter that I had so I had to rewrite it, but it ended up coming out way different. And better! Anyway… I wish I owned it, but I don't. Meh.

20 minutes later

Joe dropped me off and I walked into the house and into the dining room. "Lillian, what took you so long?"

"I had to explain why I needed to leave school to the secretary at the desk so I could be excused." I lied. I wasn't about to tell him that I skipped.

"Very well. Your mother is in the intensive care unit at the hospital and I am going to visit her. You will stay right here until I get back. You will not call your friends, you will not leave, and you will not do anything that can be considered unproductive. Understood?" I nodded and walked up to my room.

I barely made it to my bed before I passed out.

The Next Day (Tuesday, in case you didn't know), 5:35 AM

I swear, I'm going to kill Joseph Adam Jonas.

He decided that he needed to wake me up at 5:30 AM because he was bored! "Joseph!" I growled. "I am going to beat you to death with nothing but a pair of Converses and a toothbrush."

"...why a pair of Converses and a toothbrush?" Joe asked, completely ignoring the death threat, as usual.

"Because it's what popped into my head." I glared at him through barely cracked eyelids. "Now either get off and let me get up so I can kick you out and go back to sleep or get out so I can go back to sleep!"

"How about I just stay here and annoy you until you get up?" Joe grinned and I knew there was no way he was going to leave me be so I could get more sleep.

"All right! I'm getting up. But you better at least let me shower and have coffee!" I shoved him off and grabbed some clothes and headed to the bathroom.

Half an hour later, I was dressed in my usual attire and sitting at my kitchen table with coffee while watching Joe bounce around like a rabbit on crack. "Joe! What did you want?"

"I wanted to see if you'd come to the park with me." He replied as if it was the most natural thing in the world to want to go to the park at 5:30 in the morning.

"Joe, I love you and all, but there's something you need to know." I gestured for him to come closer so I could whisper in his ear. "YOU'RE INSANE!" I shouted and he jumped. "Ha. Next time, don't wake me up at 5:30 AM." Joe nodded with his eyes wide like he was afraid I was going to shout at him again. "All right. Now let's go."



"Yay!" Joe grinned and grabbed my hand and then we were sprinting off to the park.

At the park, ten minutes later

"Joe! Stop! I can't go any further!" Just as I finished, I collapsed into a giggling mass on the ground.

"What?" Joe looked a bit confused. "What's so funny?"

"Nothing!"

"What's so funny? Just tell me!"

"Fine."

"Thank you. Now what is it?"

"Your pants have a big hole in the butt."

A/N: I thought a bit of a funny chapter before it gets a little sad but then it'll be happy again! Remember, review!
