"Excuse me. What are these 'Jobros' doing here." A manager guy asked me.

"They are my guitarists for today. Mine have the flu."

"Oh, well they can't be!"

"Why is that sir?"

"Well, they belong to a different band…" I cut him off.

"And, your point is?"

"Well, well, they, um-"

"Exactly, bye now."

He stormed off the stage, and I felt proud.

"So guys, let's go!"

"Alright, what songs are we doing?"

"The ones from my first CD, Brianna: pains and heartaches."

"Alright, well we should practice before the show."

"Yep!"

"So, let's get started then."

"Okay…" I opened my mouth to start singing, but was interrupted.

"HEY! Wait for me!" Nicole screamed then, Joe did as well.

"Okay, come on guys!"

After our practice, and the real deal, we decided to go party. Well, actually my birthday party.

"Brianna, can we talk?" Nicole faintly asked.

"Um? Sure."

"Look, this is going to sound weird, coming from me, but I think I saw Nate tonight."

"Huh? Is that even possible? The guy from my dreams, the one I met?"

"Yeah…plus I like Nick again."

"Good for you. I think you should ask him out. Where did you see Nate?"

"At the show tonight, and I think I will."

"Great! And I like Nate."

"Like, like like?"

"Yeah. I mean, when we hung out for that moment, I felt a really strong connection to him. I don't know how to explain it."

"What about Joe? You going to dump him?" her eyebrows rose.

"No! Absolutely not! I love Joe, you know that."

"Well, that's a relief! You guys are perfect." She ended with a sigh.

"What's wrong?"

"I just wish I had a guy as perfect as…"

"Hey, awesome show huh guys?"

"Yeah, the best!" Coco answered for me.

"Brianna, honey, are you alright?" Joe looked concerned.

"Um, yeah, I just…never mind."

"Ok?" Joe walked away confused.

"What was that about?" Nicole scared me with her harsh tone.

"It's just that he is perfect." I looked at her, and her face tightened.

"Thanks for rubbing it in! Why can't all of us girls have someone as perfect as Joe? I don't think that's fair!"

"No, Coco, I didn't mean…"

"Forget it. Anyway, why were you speechless in front of your boyfriend?"

"I don't know. It's just that I'm lucky…that's all."

"Oh…" she rolled her eyes. The usual effect when she's upset.

"I'm sorry Coco…don't be sad. You'll find someone."
"I'm not sad!" she yelled.

"Ok, calm down. Go get Nick, please, before you explode."

"I will!" she stormed off.

Well, that plan was foiled. Nicole chickened out! She really needs to talk to Nick before someone else snatches him up.

"BOO!"

"Ahhhh! I jumped like a cat that just saw a dog.

"Got you!" a voice echoed through my head. I turned around in surprise, as I was in the clutches of a familiar face.

"Yay! I thought I wouldn't see you ever again! Jake, it's awesome to see you!"

"Well, I'm here. I'm happy to see you too, I've missed you!"

"Aww!" I looked up into the eyes I will never forget.

"So…a singer? A lot has happened since I left." He looked down upon me. He was about three inches taller then I.

"Yeah…you shouldn't of left." I whined.

"I'm sorry. But, I had no choice." He wiped tears from my eyes.

"But, you left me behind." I stopped crying. Even though it was hard I didn't want to cry in front of him.

"I didn't want to. You know that Brianna."

"Yeah, I do." I smiled. He smiled back. I've missed that smile forever.

"Brianna!" Joe walked in, and I quickly pushed Jake away.

"Joe, hey, up what's?" my words were all tangled.

"Who's this?" he immediately turned to the tall monster standing next to me.

"Oh. This is Jake. He's my best friend."

"Nice to meet my girlfriends old crush." Joe laughed at him.

"Oh, girlfriend?" Jake glared down in betrayal.

"Yes, girlfriend, she's my girlfriend, she's all MINE!" Joe blew his top.

"Ok, Joe, I think he gets it."

"Yeah I get it. I guess I'll go then…" Jake started to walk away.

"No! You can come party with us!"

"Really?"

"Yeah!" I yelled then Joe yelled…

"NO!"

"Well, which is it?"

"Yes."

"Ok…I'll be right back."

"Joe! I'm so happy!

"I'm mad Brianna!"

"Why?"

"Him!"

"Joe, seriously?"

"Yes." Is all he said. Then he left; left me alone.

A few minutes passed. Then, Jake rejoined me on the stage.

"Are we going to party, or what?"

"Jake…look…I know we were a thing, but I have a boyfriend. I don't want to loose him, or you for that matter. So…"

"Brianna…I understand that we haven't seen each other, and that you're dating. So, chill…it's cool."

Then, out of the blue, someone else unexpected showed up.

"Brianna, hey!"

"Hey Tyler!"

"Hey! How you been?" he said in his New York accent. He has always reminded me of Dean from "Wizard's Of Waverly Place". Same smile, same accent, same personality, the "bad boy" type.

Jake sat there confused. I never talked to Tyler when he was still here.

"Weather's been bad…sucks, I like sun." Tyler tried to break the awkward silence.

"Yeah, everyone does."

"So, Brianna? You still single?" his question was as random as his appearance.

"Um? No. I have a boyfriend."

He stepped away, and gave me the same look as Jake.

"Oh…I didn't realize…sorry." He quickly walked away, so I followed.

"Wait up! Come to my party! Please?"

"Thanks Brianna! I'll be there."

"Hola…me llamo Nate!"

"Nate!"

"Hey Brianna!"

"Hey!" I nudged him, thinking this day couldn't get any better, but I was wrong.

"BRIANNA!" Joe came skipping in.

"Yes babe?"

"I have a surprise for you!"

"Really? What is it?"

"Grab my hand, close your eyes, and let me lead the way…"

"Alright!" I grabbed his soft gentle hand.

I walked a few feet. My eyes closed, and my hand in Joe's.

"Okay. Open your eyes honey." He said with the sweetest voice.

I did what I was told, "Oh…Joe…it's… I don't know what to say!"

"I knew you would love it!" he squeezed me.

"Joe? What exactly is it?"

"It's a Japanese dress."

"Oh. It's beautiful! Isn't our next show in Japan?"

"Yes, oh, wait! One more thing…" he pulled out a fan with Japanese writing on it.

"What's it say?"

"I'll always love you…" Joseph smiled, "the rest I kept in English so you could read it…turn it over."

"I'll always love you…no matter where life takes me, I know I'll meet you there. We'll always be together for ever, and always, you'll be mine."

"I wrote it yesterday…do you like it?" his face was stuck in wonder.

"No…I love it!"

"I'm going to make it into a song…it's going to be about you."

"Aww, thank you!" I held him close.

I couldn't believe that he was going to write a song about me. I wonder what the finished product will sound like.

"Joe, our anniversary is on Friday."

"Yup…we've been together for three years, two months, and ten days!"

"Wow Joe. I didn't think you were keeping track."

"Yes I am! But, sweetie we have to get to your party." We raced to the bus, Joe behind me.

"Ah! I beat you!"

"Yeah by like a millisecond."

"Still beat you!" I gasped for air, and then I took a seat on the counter in the bus.

"Brianna?" Big Rob more asked then said.

"Yes?"

"Do you know him?" he pushed Jake forward.

"Yes! He's cool, thanks Rob."

"No problem." He walked away staring down the new person aboard.

"Are we ready to party?" my driver asked.

"No! Wait Chris, we are waiting for someone."

"Okay…five minutes tops!" Chris answered.

Where is he?

"Knock, Knock!" Nate said.

"Oh, good, you're here!"

"Can we go now?" Chris sighed, getting impatient.

"Wait one more minute!!!!"

"Fine, but only one. Sixty, fifty-nine, fifty-eight…" he started to count down.

I sat there praying, and he continued, "twenty-nine, twenty-eight, twenty-seven!"

I got nervous, and started to twiddle my thumbs, "Brianna! Only ten seconds left!"

I couldn't believe he didn't show.

"Time to go Brianna, sorry." Chris's voice went low.

"Fine, go ahead."

He started to pull away, when I looked back, "Wait! Stop!"

"Hey! Sorry, I had to run to the building a few blocks over, but I'm here." Tyler said.

"Glad you could join us." I looked over at Joe, and envy toke over his face.

"Joe? You alright?" Tyler looked scared to see Joe infuriated.

"Yes, perfectly fine!" his fists tightened.

"Dude, you're acting like I'm here to steal Brianna away from you. Chill, I'm not."

"Oh, well thanks for the insight. Hey, don't to comfortable here, you're not staying!" Tyler sunk in his seat, and Jake's eyes widened.

"So, Jake, when did you move back?" Tyler broke the silence.

"Um? A couple of days ago. I heard Brianna was having a show tonight, so I bought tickets to come see her. Lucky me, the day I move back, she has a show." He smiled at me, and that made Joe even more ill tempered.

"Speaking of lucky, Joe, you seem to be the luckiest guy around. I mean, having Brianna by your side and all; she's the perfect girlfriend. Isn't she?"

Joe relaxed, "Yes, she is."

"Wish I had her…" Tyler's head dropped.

"Guys, I'm flattered, but can we please drop this subject?" I begged.

"Yes, please…drop it!" Joe declared.

"Haha. What ever you say man." Tyler sat down next to me, "so, where's this party?"

"It's right there." I pointed at an enormous building that was towering over us from inside the bus.

"Well, let's go then!" he pulled me down from the counter, and rushed me to the front doors to the building called, Black Mascara. As he pushed the big glass doors open, his jaw dropped to the floor, "Whoa! This is gonna be tight!" Tyler cackled.

The dance floor was the size of a million living rooms, the floor was black and glittery, and the stage had purple curtains. The lights shining above it were multicolored, for when somebody performed.

"You really think so?" I felt good impressing him, "well, you can get this kind of stuff when you're famous, like me!" I sounded like a snob.

He started to hum one of my latest releases, "L8r in time", "Yeah, I know you're famous." He laughed his adorable laugh.

"So, um, you like my songs?"

"Oh, yeah. My favorite is 'L8r in Time'"

"Oh…" I blushed, and then jumped to the sound of Joe's voice.

"Brianna, we need to talk!"

"Ok honey!" he grabbed me, and basically drug me to the back of the stage.

"What?"

"What do you mean what?"

"Joe, is this because I'm chilling with my guy friends?"

"No Brianna, this is because your guy friends are flirting with you!"

"Joe, I can't help that! Guys just flirt, it's like their natural habit. Joe, do you think I would ever leave you?"

"I don't know. You might."

"Joe what has gotten into you?"

"I'm just a little worked up, sorry."

"Joe, just forget about it. Now, my friends are arriving, let's go have some fun!"

"Calling Brianna to the stage! Friends are waiting!" a boss of this joint, pleaded for me to come handle my friends.

"Well, hello friends of mine!" I longingly looked over the large crowd of faces. Familiar ones, and also unfamiliar ones. The unfamiliar ones were my fans. One of my friends that have been with me through everything was in the front row of the crowd. Her name is Ashley L. I looked at my, practically sister, and smiled.

"So, you guys still trying to figure out who my boyfriend is, right? Well, wait no more, here he is!" Joe came out wearing a Halloween mask.

"Who wants to unmask me?" he said deeply.

Fans in the way back screamed. One girl stood out the most; wearing a bright yellow shirt. I picked her. She raced up on stage, so happy to figure out who my prince charming was.

"Okay on the count of three."

The crowd roared, one, two, three! The girl slipped off the rubber mask, but she covered her eyes, like she was afraid there would be a real monster underneath it. The crowd silenced.

The girl finally uncovered her eyes, and the two pools of blue lit up, "Joe Jonas?"

The little girl left the stage, and I finally got a chance to look at the crowd that death glared me.

"Okay, before you all kill me for dating a Jonas Brother…well I just want to say that…I can't help it when two people like each other!"

Everyone let me slide, and started to dance to Lady GaGa's song, "Just Dance".

"Brianna, want to dance?" Jake asked.

"Yes I would!" I grabbed his hand, and walked him to the middle of the dance floor. He spun me around, and I placed my arms around his neck. A slow song came on; perfect timing.

"Jake, why exactly did you move in the first place?" I was the one to start the conversation.

"Well, my dad thought this place was unhealthy for me. He said it was killing me from the inside out." Jake shook his head.

"Why would he say that?"

"Because I left my girlfriend behind when we moved here. But, he didn't know that she dumped me, and he didn't know I met you. So, he decided it would be better for me to go back, but he was wrong. He took me away from you…"

"I know Jake, but we we're only friends. I mean sure, you were cute, and fun to hang out with, but I never thought of you as my boyfriend." I tried to explain my true feelings.

"I always thought you liked me. Guess I read the signs wrong." He let me go, and walked off the dance floor.

I stood there in silence. Everything in the room disappeared, and all I saw was Jake. I hurt him; broke his heart. What was I thinking?

"Jake! Wait, come back here!" my voice sounded robotic over all the noise, but he heard me.

"What?"

"I didn't mean to make you feel bad. I just wanted to be honest."

"See, this is why guys are always feeling like crap. Girls tell them they don't like them, but the guy is secretly crushing on her. The guy makes attempts, but they all fail, and he doesn't know what else to do! Why does it have to be so complicated?"

"Jake, now you're making me feel like crap."

"Well, now you know how I feel." He was taking all his anger out on me.

"Jake! What do you want me to do? Lie to you, and say, you know what I do like you? Cause' that's not true!" I was channeling his negative energy.

"Brianna, no I don't! I want you to keep telling me the truth, even if that means for the other half of my heart to be tore to pieces."

"Jake, can't you just let this go? We're still friends, so there's no need to be more."

"Yeah, I guess. Look, I'm sorry. I'll be on the bus."

"All right..." he walked away once again.

I started to walk to the V.I.P room, all the way in the back of the building. But, on my way, someone ran into me, and knocked my to my butt.

"Hey! Watch where you're going!" I screamed at the silhouette standing above me, "Tyler?"

"Oh, Brianna, hey. I was looking for you…uh, sorry." He yanked me up with one hand.

"Well, what?"

"I wanted to dance...that's all." He got an indignant look on his face.

"Aren't you seeing someone?" my question made him look more down to Earth.

"Well, yeah I am. She's so amazing. Her name's Pinnellapi! Thanks for asking!"

"No problem. When will I meet her? I want to try to hang out with her sometime."

"Really? Oh, that would be awesome! She's actually here, but to many people to find her. I'll try to introduce you some other time."

"Ok…" I was disappointed he didn't even try to look for her.

He walked to the dance floor, and started to feel the beat of the new song. He gestured me over, but I didn't want to go. It felt like an invisible rope was pulling me closer. I hesitated to start walking, when Joe walked in. Luckily, Joe cut the rope.
