A/N-I DO NOT OWN THE NAKED BROTHERS BAND!
Hey guys!
Soo...I'm starting to think about how to end this story ): Sad, I know, but it's got to happen sometime but that means I can write MORE STORIES FOR YOU GUYS! Lol. I've gotten a lot of positive feedback too about my new story, so I'm excited, because I know exactly how that story is going to go. This story, however, still escapes me... oh well. I hope you guys like this chapter!
"When is Cooper coming over?" Rosalina asked the next morning as they were cleaning up from breakfast.
"Cooper's coming over?" Alex asked, looking at Nat.
"Yeah, Cooper's coming over with Dad's will," Nat said, looking at his brother. "And I want you to be here when he gets here."
Alex looked a little surprised but tried to play it off. "But…why?"
"This affects me just as much as it affects you. Plus, he was your dad too. You deserve to see it."
"Wow…cool, thanks Nat." Alex smiled and walked out of the kitchen.
"You're a good big brother Nat," Rosalina said, smiling at him.
He grinned. "Yeah, I know."
…
"Okay Cooper, so what's up?"
Cooper had finally come over and he, Nat, Rosalina and Alex were all sitting around the table in the kitchen. Cooper pulled a file out of his briefcase and slid it over to Nat.
Nat cautiously opened it. (A/N-Probably none of the following is accurate because I know nothing about legal stuff.)
Cooper, Rosalina and Alex all watched as Nat looked up and down the pages and cautiously turned them. After a little while, Nat looked up at his friends. "Uncle Miles is our legal guardian."
"So what does that mean?" Alex asked.
"It means that you might be able to get some money from your aunt," Cooper said. "Is that all you wanted to see from your dad's will?"
"It just says like where is his stuff goes, what…," Nat trailed off. "What happens to him when he passes, stuff like that." He looked up at Cooper. "I don't want to read any of that. It's over and done with." He closed the file and pushed in Cooper's direction.
Rosalina took Nat's hand.
"Okay, if that's all, I'm going to take this back and see if I can get your uncle's will."
"And if you can't?" Nat asked, looking at Cooper.
Rosalina squeezed his hand.
"Then we'll have to figure out a day we both can go and try to get to it. They may give you access if they know he's your legal guardian. It's close enough to a parent."
"Okay…thanks Cooper, for everything."
"Anytime," Cooper said, getting up from the table. "I'll call you if I find out anything."
After Cooper walked out of the apartment, Alex looked at his brother. "What do we do now?"
Nat sighed. "Well…we're going to have to wait until we hear anything from Cooper. I hope Emma hasn't moved yet."
"I doubt she has," Rosalina said.
"Did you see her apartment when we went? It was practically empty!" Alex said.
"Moving houses takes a lot more than just packing boxes, Alex. Trust me, I know," She said.
"I don't like where this is going," Nat said, standing up from the table.
Rosalina stood up too. "What do you mean?"
"What if Emma's moved already? How are we supposed to contact her? And even if we are supposed to get some money, what if she spent it already or something?"
"Nat, relax. If she moved, we'll find a way to contact her. And if she owes you guys money, she'll probably be ordered by law to pay you back," She assured him. "Don't over-think everything. You'll stress yourself out."
"I know, I know. I'm just worried."
"What time do you have to work today?"
"Same as yesterday," He sighed.
"Maybe today will be better," She said.
"You always say that."
"I'm going to play video games," Alex said, getting up and hurrying out of the kitchen.
"What else do you want me to say?"
"I don't know." Nat ran his hand through his hair. "I just wish I didn't have to go."
"Why so you can sit around the apartment all day? At least it's something to do."
"I guess you're right. Let's just hope there aren't any rude customers today."
"I'll cross my fingers for you," She said, as she leaned in and kissed him. She tried to pull away but Nat pulled her to him. "Nat." She pulled away. "Shouldn't we go somewhere a little bit more private?"
He nodded as he took her hand and led her to his bedroom. Once they were inside, he shut the door behind them. He kissed her passionately, pushing her up against the door as she ran her fingers through his hair.
Suddenly, she pushed him back. "Wait."
"What is it? What's wrong?" He asked worriedly.
"Are you okay?" She asked, looking him in the eyes.
"Yes, I'm fine. But it's not me we're worried about here, it's you. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine but I was thinking…about something."
"What is it?"
"Well…we've never…really…kissed like this…ever. It's only happened…when you're stressed about something. And then I started wondering…if you really mean it or if it's just…I don't know…" Rosalina walked away from him and sat on the bed.
"Rosie," Nat said, sitting next to her and taking her hands in his. "I'm sorry it seems that way. I guess that I've…felt more confident about it at this point…I'm not sure how to explain it. But I promise you, that I mean it. I love you, Rosie. I always have and I always will. I know that for sure."
"Thank you…I don't know why I ever doubt that, I just…"
He kissed her forehead. "It's okay, Rosie. As long as you know now that I love you."

"Hey Rosalina, is Nat home?"
"Nope, he's at work. Sorry Coop. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah, everything's fine. I just had to talk to him because we're going to need to figure out a day when he and Alex can come with me to get their uncle's will."
"Oh, so you weren't able to get it?"
"Unfortunately, no. But I do have some other, better news too. You know Alex's song?"
"All I Needed?"
"Yeah, well it got so much notice that you guys are going to perform it live at a hotel next weekend as a part of a radio station's concert series."
"Next weekend…wow. That's after we go back to school right?"
"Yeah, that's why I got it on the weekend."
"So that means rehearsals as soon as possible, right?"
"You got it."
"Okay, I'll tell Nat you called."
"Thanks Rosalina. I'll talk to you guys later."
"Okay, bye Cooper." Rosalina hung up the phone.
"What did Cooper want?" Alex asked, glancing at Rosalina.
"He said that he needed to talk to Nat about when you guys could go and get you're your uncle's will."
"Oh…"
"Yeah, and he also had some good news about your song."
Alex dropped the video game controller. "What is it?"
"He said that your song was so good that a radio station asked if we could perform it next weekend at a hotel. I guess they're having a bunch of concerts and they wanted us to perform."
"That's great!" He said, jumping up from the couch. "That's awesome! I gotta go tell Juanita." Alex ran out of the living room.
Rosalina's phone vibrated. She opened the message from Nat and read:
I got a call from Emma. Didn't turn out well.
She replied:
What'd she say?
He responded:
We'll talk about it when I get home.
She sent him one last message quickly:
Good. Remember no matter what she says, we'll fix this!
A/N-Hm...that was a bad ending...
But what do you guys think?
Leave a review? (:
