Live Like We're Dying

I want to leave California

It had been at least a five days since our trip to the bar, and I hadn't seen Nick since. In the time in between I had done nothing, absolutely nothing. The most exciting thing that happened to me was an ad in the mail for some lame store. I'm not even sure what they were selling. But it's okay because today we are going to Nevada! Do you know what that means? VEGAS! God I'm so excited, I spend my past few hours just packing my favorite clothes. I heard my cell phone ring.

"Hello?" I asked still shoving clothes into my suitcase.

"Hey Miles, you ready for an epic weekend?" A familiar voice said, on the other end of the phone.

"Um, yes!" I shouted to excited to contain myself. Nick chuckled. We talked for a while, about our plans, what casinos we were going to go to first and lastly, life.

A FEW HOURS LATER

We drove from my house the border of Nevada. He pulled the car over and got out. I was a little confused so I joined him.

"Nick what are we doing?" I yawned because of my nap in the car.

"We are at the border line, between California and Nevada" he faced me, I couldn't help but smile. He did so much for me. "come on we have to make this official!" He called walking over to the state sign. Of course I followed, I was too excited not to! I skipped over to the large sign.

"Welcome to Nevada." I mumbled to myself.

"turn around so we can get a picture!" he shouted from behind me. I turned around, and stuck my tongue out. "Aw come on smile." He whined, so I smiled my best smile and waited for the flash.

"okay come on Nick I'm cold."

In Las Vegas

After hours of driving we arrived at the glorious city. There were buildings everywhere, and everything light up. It made the night feel like day, only better because there were so many colors, especially my favorite color, purple. After a couple minutes of driving in circles we found our hotel. The place was like a castle, and I felt like a princess. I wonder who my prince is, maybe Nick. I smiled to myself. We got our key and went to our room. When I walked in I immediately noticed there was only one bed.

"What? I asked for two twins!" He dropped his suitcase and walked to the phone is our small room.

"Nick it's not that big of a deal, really." I jumped up and fell on the queen sized bed letting my leg fall off the edge. After a few silent minutes I decided to get dressed. I wore a simple black dress and he wore a blue button down and khaki pants. We were ready for a night full of drinking and gambling.

We went to a few bars and clubs, and even one casino but honestly that's the last thing I remember. I remember Nick carrying me into our room, then, nothing. When I woke up I felt like I was going to die, but not real die just worst headache in my entire life die. Even the little light coming into our room egged my massive hangover on.

I sat up and noticed my clothes scattered across the small room. My heart started to race as I looked at the man next to me. As I looked over the shoulder I noticed his short curly hair. I immediately thought of Nick, but I was a drunk mess last night, I could be anyone.

"Nick? Nick? Nick!" I nudged the sleeping man next to me only to be face to face with my best friend, Nick Jonas.

"What happened last night?" Nick rubbed his forehead and looked around the room, just as I had. I got up to get my clothes when I felt like I was being watched. I turned around and say that he was watching me.

"Close your eyes!" I screamed grabbing all my clothes and running into the bathroom, without looking back.

"If I think what happened last night happened, then I don't think me seeing you naked will be a problem!" he shouted through the door. I poked my head through the door and smiled at him. He was so cute that I forgot about the whole, well sleeping with Nick thing.

"Do you really think we did…" I paused "it?" he laughed at me and wrapped the thin sheet around his waist as he grabbed his clothes. He shrugged and said,

"I guess we killed two birds with one stone huh?" I looked at him weird. "You know, we came to vegas to leave California but I think you also lost your, um you know." It made me giggle that he couldn't say virginity. Was it something to be ashamed of? Well it doesn't really matter since I lost it last night. "Come on start packing. We've got a long trip home."

"okay, okay whatever kill joy!" I laughed and shoved random clothes into my small suit case. "Um Nick?" I whispered, he grunted as if to say what? "I'm glad you were my, um first." He smiled and wrapped his arm around me.

He is too perfect!
