"And even when you look away I know you think of me."

"You did a great job today, Jayne."

"I know, thank you."

"I forgot how arrogant you can be."

"I'm not arrogant! I said thank you, didn't I?" Jayne smiled innocently as Claire examined the girl's expression carefully. Something about her niece was very different, but she couldn't put her finger on the reason why. She seemed so much more happier. She spent more time out of the apartment and more time outside. Even the aura around the girl was brighter than it usually was.

"So, what are your plans today?" Claire asked the young girl curiously as Jayne thought for a moment.

"Honestly, I have no idea. I never really have a plan at the moment."

"Really? That's very surprising seeing as you hate being unorganized."

"…It's not like I'm unorganized, I just wait to see what my options are going to be," Jayne defended as she nodded her head at her statement. She did not want to think she was being unorganized, it would kill her. Her aunt shook her head as she chuckled, the two climbing out of their black car. The two waved a goodbye to their chauffeur, the driver smiling and nodding his head back in reply. As they approached the lobby elevators, the doors opened revealing four rather loud and energetic boys. The two stopped walking as the four did the same.

"Hey, Jayne," the leader of the four called out as he smiled a bit. The other three with him waved and said their hellos as Jayne replied back with her usual polite smile. Kendall mentally sighed; he needed to teach the girl how to actually smile at people and mean it, but that would be a mission for another day.

"Are you done for the day?" the more formal boy of the group asked as another voice piped in.

"Because if you are you should come hang with us!" the helmet wearing boy stated. The brunette chuckled and nodded her head; she still couldn't get used to the fact that Carlos almost always wore his helmet everywhere.

"I just finished up," she stated as the four nodded their heads.

"Come to the pool when you're done then, we can finally spend some quality time together and get to know each other, what do you say?" James asked smoothly as he wrapped an arm around Jayne's shoulders. The other three boys rolled their eyes and chuckled as Jayne shook her head with a nervous smile. The aunt of the sixteen year old girl cleared her throat as she gave James a knowing look. The teen singer laughed sheepishly as the woman smirked and made her way to the elevator.

"I'll meet you guys when I'm done," Jayne stated as the four nodded their heads, waving a goodbye to the two females.

"So," the twenty-seven year old started as the elevator doors closed. "I see why you've been out so much."

"Out so much?" Jayne asked, not really understand where her aunt was trying to take the conversation.

"You've been hanging out with those boys, haven't you?" Claire asked with a smirk, which caused Jayne to blush, very badly.

Jayne was a rather innocent girl. She didn't have boys that were just friends. She mostly had friends that were girls. Where she was from, unless she was matched to get married to some man, she had no interest in being their friend. She just couldn't seem to click right with the male species. They confused her and aggravated her to no end. Not to say that Kendall never or didn't get on the girl's nerves. In fact, though the two could easily say they were now a strange kind of friends, they still bickered constantly and argued over the smallest, littlest details; that would never change. What did change was the fact that they enjoyed it. It was fun to annoy the other and try and purposely irritate the other, but now the two were able to come to a least some sort of agreement.

After signing the unspoken truce, Kendall had finally been able to introduce Jayne to his closest friends, along with Camille, his mother and Katie. She was polite as ever with everyone, and everyone seemed to get along with her well. She especially got a long with Camille, though it wasn't hard to; the girl was always a friendly person, just as long Jayne steered clear of her beloved one then the two would be just fine.

"They're all just my friends, they're actually not so terrible," Jayne simply stated as she cleared her throat, the elevator doors sliding open, releasing the two from the car.

"They're pretty cute!" Claire joked causing Jayne to roll her eyes. "Especially the tall one."

"..James?" Jayne recalled, trying to match his face to his name.

"Sure, we'll go with that," Claire stated as the two approached their room door. "But I guess they're all cute," Jayne's aunt concluded as the younger girl sighed, shaking her head.

"Why don't you try sticking with people your own age."

"Ouch, one-zero Jayne," the older woman joked as Jayne smirked a bit, shaking her head and walking into her room. After taking a few minutes to change into her swim suit, she pulled on a pair of caprice and a tee-shirt and slipped a pair of flip-flops on. She walked out of her room, calling out to her chaperone.

"I'm going down to the pool!"

"Play nice!" the woman replied back making the sixteen year old mentally scold her. She grabbed her towel and walked out of the apartment room, shutting the door quietly behind herself.


"Hey, Jayne! Over here!" Said girl smiled as she waved to her newest friend, who had saved her a lawn chair under the shade of the trees.

"Hi, Camille."

"How was practice?" the method actress asked as Jayne sat down, setting her towel up to her liking.

"It was fine, tiring, but fine," she stated evenly as Camille smiled and nodded her head.

"Where are the-"

"WOO!"

The two girls turned and watched as four rather loud boys leaped into the pool for their second time, hoping that their splash would be bigger than the last one they had created.

"Never mind," Jayne stated with a smile as she sat and shook her head.

"How are your auditions going?" the tired girl asked curiously as the actress smiled and nodded her head.

"They're going really well!"

"Yeah? Landed any parts yet?"

"Well, that's a little bit of a rollercoaster."

Jayne smiled at her acquaintance's respond. She sighed as she stared up at the blue sky, feeling content for the hundredth time that month.

It was strange, Jayne couldn't remember a time where she had felt so at peace with herself before she had met the boys of BTR. It continued to baffle her. She normally didn't make friends really well and she tended to stray away from boys especially, but somehow she was spending the day with the craziest people of Palm Woods, and she was enjoying herself.

"Um, Jayne?" Said girl raised an eyebrow as she looked over at Camille, who wore a playful smile on her face.

"What-"

"Jayne, why is it you always come to the pool yet you haven't swam in it once?"

The brunette looked up, squinting through the sunlight as she stared up at the four boys now hovering over her.

"I don't know. I don't really swim much."

"But this pool is the best!" Carlos exclaimed as he motioned toward the hotel's best accessory.

"He's got a good point!" Logan added as he nodded his head.

"I don't really swim."

"Huh. Well, boys," Kendall stated as he stood up straight, letting the droplets of water from his hair land on the concrete. "I think we're going to have to take care of some things." The other three boys exchanged smirks as they nodded to each other.

Before the brown haired girl could react to the situation set upon her, Jayne was lifted from her chair, her surprised yelp being ignored by the boys. "P-Put me down!"

"I'm afraid we can't do that, not until you're close enough to the pool," Kendall stated as he held firmly to the girl's arm, fighting against her jerks and pulls.

"Seriously! Put me down this instant!" she snapped as she tried to free herself from the rather strong grips of the boys. "Camille!"

"Sorry! I'm not getting dragged into this!" said girl stated as she laughed a bit, shaking her head. She watched as her friends carried the brunette to the pool, her snaps and shouts not getting through to the singers.

"Don't do this!"

"One..."

"Think about what you're going to do!"

"Two..."

"Put me down, you morons!"

"Three!"

Jayne took a quick breath, knowing there was no way to escape the inevitable. The former Minnesotans laughed as they leaped after her, creating the biggest splash yet.

They really are the worst! Jayne snapped to herself as she pushed air out through her nose. She kept her eyes squeezed shut, but stiffened a bit as she felt a firm hand grab on to her forearm. She gasped a bit as she reached the surface of the water, coughing a bit, and caught a bit of her breath. She blinked the droplets of water out of her eyes and refocused her vision, the sight of the dirty blond she used to despise making her smile against her will.

"Not so bad, is it?" Kendall asked with a smirk on his face. He laughed a bit as the girl rolled her eyes, splashing him a bit.

"You are seriously irritating beyond belief."

"I'll take that as a compliment," he replied back as he glanced around to see his friends resurfacing from their jump. He nodded to his friends as they laughed, receiving splashes from the now soaking Jayne.

"I didn't even have time to take my clothes off!"

"At least your swimsuit was underneath!" Kendall said, trying to remedy the situation; it didn't work. He laughed a bit more as Jayne splashed him once more, shaking her head at him. He loosened his grip on her arm but continued to hold on to her, though he didn't know why.

Jayne sighed as she glanced over at the other three boys and watched Carlos dunk Logan's head, James laughing and running his fingers through his soaked hair. She shook her head as she turned her attention to Kendall, who was smiling at her. She raised a brow as she did her best to keep her chin above the water.

"What are you so happy about?"

"Nothing," Kendall stated simply as his smile grew a bit more.

"Doesn't the water feel better than being hot and sweaty?" he asked as Jayne shook her head.

"Whatever."

"Don't be like that!"

Before the conversation could grow, Kendall pulled his green eyes away from Jayne's blue ones, Camille calling out to him.

"Your phone's ringing," she said as the blond nodded his head. He released the girl's arm, swimming to the edge of the pool, and pulled himself out of the water. He grabbed his towel, drying his face and hands off.

"Hello?"

Jayne watched curiously as she glanced over at the boys and decided to join them in their new game of bounce the beach ball around. She smiled as Logan bumped the ball in her direction. She hit the ball in Carlos' direction, who head bumped the ball to James. She chuckled, letting her eyes dance toward Kendall's direction for a short second. She watched as he smiled, hanging his phone up and setting it back on the table. He dropped into the pool, standing beside James, and bounced the ball out of the pretty boy's hands and toward Logan.

"That Jo?" James asked curiously as the bushy browed boy nodded his head with a happy smile on his face.

"Yup, she'll be down in a few seconds."

"So I finally get to meet her?" Jayne asked with a smile on her face. Kendall nodded his head as he looked toward the lobby doors.

"Yup, you guys will definitely get along," he said as Jayne nodded her head.

"Hey!"

"Speak of the devil," said Kendall as he smiled at his approaching girlfriend. He pulled himself out of the pool and opened his arms to pull his girlfriend into a bear hug. Jo laughed as she hugged the soaking boy back, kissing his cheek with a sweet smile on her face. She ignored the fact that she was now a bit wet and chuckled at her boyfriend.

"I see you've been having a good time."

"As a matter of fact, I have," Kendall said back with a smile. He turned to the pool, quickly pulling Jo toward the edge.

"Jo, I want you to meet Jayne," he stated as he held his hand out toward the brunette.

"Hi, I'm Jo. It's nice to meet you," the blond girl said with a friendly smile on her face. "I've actually heard a lot about you," she said as she knelt down and held her hand out.

"I've heard a lot about you too," Jayne replied back with her usual polite smile. She shook her new companion's hand, the two nodding to each other. Kendall smiled as he watched the two talk a bit, the conversation going quite well. He nodded to himself, happy with the fact that the two were getting along so quickly. He walked toward his chair, drying himself with his towel, his three friends joining him and doing the same.

"Well, guys," Kendall said as he looked over at his best friends. "I think today was a success," he said as he watched his girlfriend and girl friend talk, Jo now sitting beside Jayne, their legs dangling in the water. He smiled before turning to his friends.

"Lunch?"


"So that's you in that new show?"

"Yeah, it's a lot of fun filming."

"I've seen a couple of episodes, it's actually a pretty interesting series."

"Well, those two seem to be getting along really well."

A thick brow raised itself a bit as green eyes looked over to meet a pair of chocolate brown eyes. "Hey, Logie, where are the others?" Kendall asked curiously as he watched his best friend walk up to his table and take a seat across from him.

"James went to practice a skit with Camille for her next audition and Carlos is looking for his helmet."

"Lost it again?"

"Yup."

The leader of the four boys chuckled as he shook his head. He released a content sigh as he watched his girlfriend and Jayne, who was now completely dry, talk and laugh about something he had no clue about.

"I'm actually surprised they're getting along so well," Kendall started as his companion raised a brow.

"Weren't you the one who thought they would get along really well?"

"Yeah, but I mean, they just get along super well is all," he stated as he and Logan both watched the two walk over to them.

"Hey, guys."

"Hey, Jo," Logan said as she smiled at him, nodding her head.

"What are you two doing?" Jayne asked curiously, noticing the absence of the other two best friends.

"Nothing really, just talking," Kendall stated as he smiled at the two girls. "What were you ladies doing?"

"Nothing really, just talking," Jayne mocked slightly. She smirked a bit as Kendall smirked back; there was no way he could have been able to stop himself from doing so.

"Actually, me and Jayne have a lot in common," Jo said as she took a seat next to her boyfriend. She smiled at her new friend as Jayne stood beside a seated Logan.

"We both really like ballet and ice skating."

"That's good!" Kendall said with a cheerful smile as Jayne chuckled, nodding her head.

The four sat at the table, talking amongst themselves for a good hour before the brunette of the group sighed, glancing at the time. "Alright, I think I should head back now."

"You sure? You're going to miss Logan's thrilling talk about something that has to do with science."

"Hey!"

Jayne laughed as she nodded her head, giving the genius a pat on the back. "Yeah, I have a few things to do upstairs anyways," she said as the three nodded their heads.

"It was really nice to meet you," Jo said as Jayne smiled and nodded her head.

"You too, we'll definitely be seeing each other again," she said as Jo nodded her head with her kind smile.

"Definitely."

Jayne gave the three one last wave goodbye before she entered the hotel lobby, her polite smile replaced with a frown. She stopped walking for a second, glancing over her shoulder, and watched as the three continued on with a new conversation. Her eyes landed on the dirty blond, who wore a very content smile, his arm wrapped securely around Jo.

Weird, she thought to herself as she made her way to the elevator. She's a really nice girl, Jayne said to herself as she pressed the button number two. And we really do have a lot in common, not to mention I like her sort of attitude,'\ the brunette stated as she waited patiently to arrive on her floor.

"But something just isn't right," she said out loud as the doors slid open. She stepped out of the elevator and made her way toward her home. She opened the door, but before she called out for her aunt, she stopped. She walked up to the kitchen counter and picked up a small piece of paper.

"Went to do some grocery shopping. If you need me just call! Love, Clay."

Jayne sighed as she tossed the note into the trash, walking into her room to change. She threw her towel into the laundry bin, doing the same with her clothes.

"I should really like her, and I should want to hang out with her more…but," Jayne frowned to herself as she shook her head. "Something about Jo makes me want to slap her!" she exclaimed to herself as she stared at herself in the full-length mirror. She shook her head in disappointment, walking away and jumping into the shower.

She's really pretty, Jayne thought to herself as she let the warm water splash on to her. And she seemed pretty intelligent, definitely not doesn't match the whole dumb blonde stereotype, she stated in her mind.

After a few more minutes in the shower, she stepped out, drying herself and going on with the day. She stretched, walking out of the shower, and made her way toward the couch in the middle of the living room. She sat down, crossing her legs, and switched the TV on. Trying to forget about her strange disdain for Jo, Jayne decided to try and watch something interesting, though she gave up after a few minutes. She groaned as she gently tossed the remote on to the coffee table. She sighed as she closed her eyes, laying across the couch.

"Why?" she shouted to herself as she shook her head. It was driving her crazy. She didn't know why she didn't like Jo. She knew that the two would get along really well, and the long conversation the two shared was a good one, but while she had been talking to the blond she had also been thinking in the back of her mind that she was slightly irritated with her. She covered her eyes with her arm, shutting them for a few seconds.

Knock Knock

Jayne jumped as she blinked a few times, her eye sight refocusing. She yawned, standing to her feet, and made her way to her door. She opened it and her eyes widened, shocked at the visitor.

"Hey."

"Hi, where's Jo?" the brunette asked curiously, noticing the blonde girl absent from Kendall's side.

"She's down in the lobby, actually everyone's down in the lobby. You want to go get some dinner with us?" he asked as Jayne raised a brow.

"Dinner? It's only," she stopped to check the time and her eyes widened. "It's already seven?"

"You didn't know?" Kendall asked with a chuckle as Jayne sighed, shaking her head.

"I must have fallen asleep," she explained as the dirty blond nodded, pretending to think deeply for a second.

"Well, seeing as you just woke up, you're going to need to get food in your system now."

"What kind of logic is that?"

"The greatest kind of logic," Kendall retorted back with his trademark smirk. He grabbed the girl's wrist as her eyes widened. She quickly grabbed her keys off from the table, shutting the door behind herself and locking it.

"What if I had been busy?" Jayne snapped playfully as Kendall thought for a second, the two walking on to the elevator.

"I would've dragged you down anyway," the dirty blond stated evenly as the brunette scoffed. She smiled a bit as the boy beside her gave her a happy smile. She chuckled at the sight as she turned to the opening elevator doors, revealing the boys, Camille, and Jo waiting patiently in the lobby.

"I've retrieved the runaway," Kendall said as Jayne shook her head.

"Ready to eat?"

"Yeah, I'm STARVING!"

"You're always hungry, Carlos."

"Nuh uh!"

Kendall shook his head at his friends with a wide smile on his face. He walked up to Jo, wrapping an arm around her shoulders.

"Are we all ready to go then?" the leader of the group asked. Everyone nodded in response as everyone made their way out of the hotel.

Jayne lingered behind, her eyes flickering toward Kendall and Jo ever so often. She frowned a bit, the sight of the two together making the hairs on the back of her neck rise a bit. She jumped a bit as she felt an arm wrap itself around her own shoulders.

"You can sit next to me during dinner if you want."

"James, don't scare her."

Jayne chuckled as she watched Logan and James jump into a petty argument like they usually did. She smiled and mentally nodded. She was going to push the strange thoughts aside and enjoy her life and friends. She wouldn't let something as ridiculous and petty as her weird feelings get in the way of that. Besides, her feelings weren't permanent.

So she hoped.
