Kevin Lucas yawned loudly, stretching out his tired limbs and rolling over. Mistake. He rolled right off the edge of his bunk and flopped onto the ground. He moaned, pulling his sleeping mask off. "Smooth." A tired voice scoffed, chuckling. He sat up, rubbing his eyes.
"What time is it?"
"9:47."
"AM or PM?"
"AM." He yawned, causing Kevin to do the same.
"What a power nap." Kevin said, grinning as he stood. "Joe still sleeping?"
"Dunno." He shrugged, picking something up - a book? - and chucking it at Joe's bed. There was movement and indescribable mumbling. Nick rose, strutting over as Kevin did the same. Nick's jaw dropped.
"What?" Kevin said, confused, squinting. His eyes widened and he did the first thing that came to mind. Scream.
Macy was at a beach, a lonely, quiet, empty beach. No one was there, although she wasn't sure why. It was a beautiful day, after all. She stretched her legs out, taking in the sun. "Macy!" A voice yelled. She turned, jaw dropping as Joseph Lucas appeared in front of her. Totally shirtless. Hot damn. "Sup, Mace?" He asked nonchalantly, sitting beside her.
"Nothing." She said simply. "Just working on my tan." She flashed a smile. He returned the gesture.
"I love you." He said. She blinked as he grew closer. She found herself on the warm sand, him straddling her. She gaped, shocked.
"I-I love you, too." He smiled, leaning down and-
"AHHHHHHHH!" She flew into a sitting position at the sudden outburst. She realized Joe, who she'd somehow forgotten she'd slept beside, had done the same. She looked around, confused, taking in Nick and Kevin's shocked expressions. Oh no.
"What happened? What's going on?" The boys father yelled, running in and swinging a JONAS baseball bat around. He blinked, straining his eyes at the young girl. "Macy?"
"Joseph, all I wanna know is what on EARTH made you think it was okay to sleep with her!" Their mother scolded. Macy sat shamefully in the kitchen room, hearing every word of it.
"It wasn't exactly sleeping with her, though. We only fell asleep...together. In the same bed." Mrs. Jonas sighed angrily. "Mom, it's my fault. Don't blame Macy for this, alright? I asked her to stay."
"Nothing happened? You swear? Because if I find out something went on up there..."
"Nothing like that happened." He shook his head. "I promise, mommy." He smiled.
"Okay. Just, if wanna have a sleepover. Tell us?" He cringed.
"I will." He mumbled, blushing in embarrassment. She kissed his forehead. "I love you."
"Love you, too." She said, leaving the room.
"Dude!" Kevin yelled, coming in, Nick and Macy hot on his tail. "I can't believe you didn't get in trouble!"
"It's not a big deal, Kev." His eyes drifted to the only girl in the kitchen. "Macy.."
"I-I have to go home. My mom's probably freaking out." She said quickly, running for the door.
"Macy, wait! Macy!" He called, but she was already gone.
"Looks like someone's crushing on our biggest fan." Nick smirked.
"I am not."
"Are to."
"Am not."
"Are to."
"Am not!" Silence. He sighed, grateful. "I-"
"Are to."
"AGH!"
"You slept with him? My gosh, Macy!"
"We only fell asleep in the same bed, Stell."
"With his arm on your waist and your head on his chest! It's so romantic!" She gushed into the phone. Macy sighed.
"I don't know what to do now."
"He totally likes you." She scoffed. "Obviously, Mace. Go get your prize!"
"I can't do that! He's Joe of JONAS! I'm just Macy of school."
"Joe of JONAS happens to be crushing on just Macy of school."
"Whatever. Stell, I'm gonna go. I'm, uh, tired." She lied. Ha. Tired. She just had the best sleep of her life. "Bye." She pressed end, not waiting for a response. She flopped backwards on the bed, covering her face with a pillow. The smell of her shampoo drifted to her nose. She had already showered and blow dried her hair. If she had been more quiet, her mother wouldn't even had noticed her sneak in. Not that she didn't notice her disappearance last night, she just assumed she was with Stella. So that was the story she stuck with.
"Macy!" Her mother yelled. "You have a visitor!" She cursed slightly. It was probably Stella. She groaned into the pillow, not bothering to move it. Her bedroom door opened and closed.
"Macy?" She shot up, the pillow falling into her lap.
"Joe? Wh-What are you doing here?" She blushed.
"I wanted to see you." He smiled.
"Why?" She asked, confused. He shrugged, plopping down next to her. "Uhm, Joe, listen.."
"About what happened." He started before she could. "I'm sorry. I guess I didn't think about it, y'know?"
"It's okay. I can't blame them. It's not every morning they find a girl in their son's bed." She stated, leaning back on her pillows. Joe shifted, and he lied down beside her. She turned on her side, facing him. He stared into her eyes, a soft smile on his face. She returned it, cheeks heating up. He chuckled.
"I like when you blush." Her head tilted. "I mean, you look cute. And stuff." She giggled as his cheeks tinted pink.
"When you blush, you're cute and stuff, too." His eyes narrowed.
"Are you making fun of me?"
"Me? Make fun of you? Psh. Never." She grinned. He rolled his eyes as he wrapped an arm around her, pulling her close.
"Now, why does this feel familiar?" She laughed into his shoulder. After a moment of silence, Macy remembered something.
"Hey, Joe?"
"Hm?"
"Before we fell asleep...You said something."
"Mhm.."
"You said...Uhm, you said that you.."
"Loved you?"
"Uh, yeah."
"What's your point?"
"Di-Did you mean it?"
"Yup." He answered simply. "You said you loved me, too." He grinned foolishly, looking down at her. She blushed, hiding her face in his chest. "Do you?"
"Maybe." She whispered, listening to his heartbeat.
Not the most amazing update, but it'll have to do for now. :P
