I know I just updated this but there was an error pointed out to me and now it's fixed.

Hey everyone! It took me a while to finish this. More like 2 days! Between school and my homework and my other stories, I got kind of sidetracked but here it is. I already have plans for future chapters and hopefully get them done soon. Oh and as I was just about to upload this chapter I saw a review from TeamMindless143. Thnx for the support, I appreciate it. Mindless Behavior is friggin awesome, just saying. Enjoy :)

Taylor

I can't wait to see everyone. I've missed them so much. And I finally get my own room back. I live in the attic of my house, it's really cool in there because it's super wide. I have one area with my bed, a wall and then I have an area similar to a living room with a TV, couches and and a couple chairs and space for my desk and equipment. While I've been away, I took up classes to become a DJ. It's amazing and I'm ridiculously good at it. I played at the school dances and even got credit for it.

It's 7 in the morning. I was asleep for a lot of the ride. Staring out the window of the train, I think about what I'm gonna do first. Hang out with my family. Eat everything in the house. Redecorate my room. Go shopping. See what friends I still have over here...Speaking of friends, Jacob. Or Princeton. I knew he had major talent but I never thought he'd do something like this. Mindless Behavior. Hmmm, when I first heard about them I checked them out, but once I saw him, I almost DIED. I couldn't believe it. My Jacob on TV, although he was in that Gym Class Heroes- Cupid's Chokehold video.

(If you didn't already know, GOOGLE IT, WATCH IT! He looks so adorable :)!)

I haven't spoken to him in such a long time and I've really missed him. My uncle LoZo (Lorenzo) is part off their management team and he tells me different things about what they're doing and stuff like that. Hopefully I'll get to see him, but since they're musicians and everything, I don't think that'll happen very soon.

We just pulled into the station and everyone begins to gather their luggage. I have two bigs ones, my record case (for DJing) and my backpack. One of the people with luggage carts came around and helped me with my luggage. "Do you need a cab, miss?"

"No thank you, I being picked up at the entrance"

He nodded and began rolling the cart in that direction. I remembered when I was leaving to go to school 5 years ago. I was scared and excited at the same time. I was scared because I've never been without my family before but excited because I've never left California and was curious to see what New York was like.

Getting close to the entrance I could see my mother searching for me. My mother was from India. Her name is Padma. I inherited some of her looks, actually I look a lot like her when she was younger. Long black hair, lightly tanned complexion, same body type although I'm a little more toned because I dance. I was beyond happy, so much I felt like I was about to cry.

"MOM" I yelled as I ran to her. Her beautiful smile appeared on my face as she rushed to meet me. I ran right into her arms for a hug. She held onto me tight and didn't let go for a while. Eventually she pulled back a little to get a look at me. "My sweet girl" she said with her accent. I've always loved that about her. Even though she came here when she while she was in college she never lost it.

"Mom, I've missed you so much. I have a lot to tell you."

'Of course you do. But first let's get you and your things home. The luggage cart man followed us outside to the car where my father, Ernesto, was waiting by. I left my mothers side and sped over to him. He picked me up and spun me around. Once my feet touched the ground he hugged me properly. "There's my girl".

"Hi Dad"

I had to look up at my dad, he's pretty tall. I'm 5'7, so right now I'm up to his chest. He's black and Hispanic. I get my height from because I'm taller than my mom, I think she's 5'1 or something like that. He has curly hair that's low and a beard.

Between both of my parents, all of their kids look pretty interesting but in a good way.

My dad got my bags and put them in our car. I was looking at everything that I remembered and saw some new things on the way home. I couldn't wait to see my brothers and sisters. Two of my brothers, Ricky and Steven and my sister Lyssa moved out while I was gone. Now it's only my sisters Hannah, Corin and I along with my brother Keith, Corin's fraternal twin.

We pulled up to the house and it looked the same as when I left. As my dad was carrying my two suitcases to the door, my little sisters Corin 9 and Hannah 12 came running out and almost knocked me over.

"Tay!" they screamed and giggled.

"Hey you two. Look how big you got!"

"I know" said Hannah. Her hair was a dark brown that stopped just above her shoulders and had brown eyes. She looked more like Dad.

"You're not gonna leave again are you?" asked Corin. She was so cute. Her little chubby cheeks surrounded by a mess of brown curls and light brown eyes staring up at me.

I squatted down to her level. "Not for a long time"

"Yay!" she squealed.

Everyone pitched in an carried something inside where I got a suprise. Practically every part of my family was here. My brothers and sisters, cousins, uncles and aunts, my grandparents, and a few of my friends and friends of my parents.

It took a couple of hoursbefore everyone was really satisfied with my being back and decided to leave. Now it's just past noon and I started to get hungry.

"Mom what's for dinner" I asked while walking into the living room.

She chuckled. "You just got home and your already trying to clean us out?"

"Hey it's not just me, Ricky and Steven haven't stopped eating since I got here."

"Well, I'm not sure. What do you want?"

"Actually I was hoping I could make my lasagna."

My parents and my sister Lyssa looked at me funny.

"What?!"

"You can cook?" Lyssa asked.

"Yes and very well if you must know."

"Let's put your skills to the test then, because I getting hungry myself."

"Ok you and Lyssa go get what you need from the supermarket." She said while reaching for her purse.

She handed me 50 dollars. "Thanks mom. Come on Lyssa"

Princeton

I was so nervous on the way to Taylor's house. I don't know why though. I mean she's my best friend, I should be excited. I guess I'm nervous to see what's she's like now, since we've been apart for so long. Also because I wasn't sure how she was gonna take the whole MINDLESS BEHAVIOR thing.

It was 1:30 when we pulled up to the house, I calmed down only slightly because I was familiar with the house. The rest of the guys, my mom and I got out of the van. My mom was in the front, walked up to the door and rang the bell. A moment later the door opened and behind it was Taylor's mom.

"Alicia!"

"Padma!"

They hugged and laughed.

"Its been so long"

"Too long. Come in" Mrs. R said

She shut the door and turned to look at us and her eyes fell on me. "Hello Jacob"

"Hi Mrs.R, it's nice to see you."

"You too. You've grown into a handsome young man"

I smiled. " Thanks"

"And who are your friends?"

"Oh this is Ray- Ray, Prodigy and Roc Royal"

"Hello ma'am" they all said

She had an amused look on her face. "I've heard those names before. My daughters listen to your music. But those aren't your real name are they?"

"No ma'am. I'm Craig"

"I'm Chresanto"

"And I'm Raquan"

"Well it's a pleasure you. But I know why your here. Taylor went to the store with Lyssa. She plans on cooking tonight. Would you like to stay for dinner?"

We all nodded "yes"

"Good. I'll just call them and tell to bring in some extra food." she began walking away but turned back, "Go on outside or in the living room until she comes."

Mom walked away with her into the kitchen.

"Come on" I said and they follow me. I knew every inch of this house. We made our way to the backyard where Taylor's older brothers were. I introduced everybody and we hung out.

Taylor

"Mom called, she said to pick a little more supplies because we have 5 extra people for dinner" I told Lyssa.

She left the cart with me and doubled back to get some more of the things we already picked up. We walked up to the cash register and waited in line.

I knew two of those guests were Jacob and his mom. And I'm guessing the three were the other guys. I was excited to meet them. From what I say on TV and YouTube, they seem like they're a lot of fun.

I was getting impatient and so was the cashier. This old man in front of me was taking forever trying to sort through the stack of coupons he had. As he handed over the pieces of paper his wrinkly hands trembled.

Soon we're in the car on our way back home when Lyssa interrupted by daydreaming.

"What?"

"I said are excited to see Jacob?" she asked

"Yeah"

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see her looking at me funny.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"No reason. I was just wondering if you still had a crush on him."

I didn't respond. I was trying not to blush. I couldn't believe she still remembered.

"I know what you're thinking. I wouldn't forget something like that or any of the talks we would have"

"I do still like him. But it's not like I can do anything about."

"You could still tell him" she offered

"No I can't. He's my best friend and I don't want to make it awkward between us"

"You have a point. But don't you think you'd feel better if you told him?"

"Maybe, but I don't want to risk it. I'd rather be friends than to ruin our friendship"

Princeton

I had to go to the bathroom so I went into the house and used the downstairs bathroom near the kitchen. Once I was done I washed my hands and opened the door. As I was closing the door back, I heard a giggle behind me.

When I turned around, I was met with a pair of bright green eyes. Taylor... she looked...amazing. She was wearing black skinny jeans, a black tank top underneath a flannel shirt with the sleeves rolled up to the elbows, black and white Adidas and her hair was tied up with her bangs going across her right eye. Along with some rubber wristbands with words on them and a silver heart shaped necklace. I've always had a crush on her from the time we first met. I was too nervous to say anything before. But maybe I could now. I just stood there staring at her with my heart bouncing around in my chest.

She noticed me staring and broke into a huge grin.

It took me another second before I said something. "H-Hey Taylor"

She giggle again. "Hey Jacob. Or is it Princeton?" she said smiling. Her teeth were perfectly straight and white.

I laughed. "For you it's Jacob"

Before I could say anything else, she was hugging me. I didn't react right away, but soon I was hugging her back. We stayed like that for a while. She pulled back first and I saw that she looked a little sad.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing. I just really missed you"

"I missed you too. How are you?"

"Good. Boarding school was actually pretty awesome. What about you?"

"Same for me. The group is doing really well. Actually they're outside, you wanna meet them?"

"Sure, let's go"

She grabbed my hand and started walking outside. I swear it just got hotter in here. My heart jumped again.

When we got outside, the boys were hanging around the basketball court she had back here. She was still pulling me until we got a couple feet away from them and stopped suddenly. She looked a little nervous.

"Are you worried they're not gonna like you?"

"No. It's like before, I'm not that good with new people so..."

Now it was my turn to pull her. "Come on"

As we got closer the first one to notice us was Prodigy. He walked over to us.

"Prod this Taylor"

He was looking at her funny and I didn't like it.

"Hey, I think I've seen you on YouTube"

"Really?"

"Yeah, you have videos of you dancing and doing different stuff with music, right?"

"Yeah"

"You're on YouTube?" I asked her

She nodded. "I took dance classes at school and me and a bunch of my friends ended up forming a group and posting the videos. And I had music lessons for different instruments and singing and my favorite, learning how to be a DJ"

Damn this girl is just full of surprises today. "Wow. You've been busy"

"I know but it was so much fun."

By now Roc and Ray-Ray came over. "Hey" they both said

"Hi, I'm Taylor"

"What are you guys talking about?" asked Ray-Ray

"Taylor. I've seen some of her videos on YouTube" said Prodigy

"What kind?"

"Dancing, singing, playing instruments. And then my friend has a channel where he does short films and I'm in some of them."

"Cool. Can we see any?" asked Roc

"Sure. Follow me"

She started walking towards the house and we followed her. She brought us up to the attic. I've never been up here before, it looked pretty cool up here. There were a lot of seats, a flat screen, and desk with a Dell computer on it.

"Have a seat"

She walked over to her computer and started typing then turned the TV on. She came over and sat on my right on the couch. She had the laptop in her lap so I'm guessing it's hooked up to the computer.

A video came up with her and some other people dancing to Runaway by Kanye West. They were doing moves in time with the beat, starting off slow then getting faster, flips and a mix of different dance styles. They were really good but most of my attention was on Tay.

She had a lot of talent and I don't know if she really noticed but she was like the center of attention, and that's a little different than the girl I knew back then but people do change.

A couple hours went by, Tay went down stairs to cook. We were using her computer and watching TV when Roc asked me, "Do you know if she's single?"

"No. And don't even try anything" I said looking at him seriously

"What? I was only asking." he said

"Sure"

I could feel him looking at me. "What?"

"Do you like her?"

"No. Why?" I hope he couldn't tell I was lying.

"Well you got a little defensive"

Prodigy and Ray-Ray jumped. "You kinda did man" and "He's right"

I narrowed my eyes at them. "I don't, end of story"

They looked like they didn't believe me but dropped the subject.

Soon Taylor came up and told us dinner was ready. She made lasagna and there was garlic bread to go with it. There were people scattered all over the kitchen sitting at the table or the island or anywhere with a seat.

Everyone had plates and I swear on everything that when everyone, including me, took their first they all made that satisfied moan when you taste really good food and it was REALLY good.

Once the initial shock wore off, everyone started chowing down. Slowly people sunk down into their seats. Tay broke out laughing. "You guys are so fat" and that made everyone else laugh.

"Well that was fantastic. I think I'm going to bed now." My dad got up and kissed my mom goodnight and said he see her upstairs.

I chuckled as he hugged her and said goodnight to the others.

Eventually people started leaving. Tay's older brothers and sister left and promised to come back soon. Her little sisters were sent to bed. Now it was just my mom and her mom talking, and the guys and I and her playing around.

I got up to go ask my mom a question. "Mom, do you think I could sleep here tonight?"

They both smiled. "I figured you would. Just in case I put a bag with some things in the back of the out and get it."

"Thanks mom" I said and ran out to the car. Sure enough there was a bag in the back of the van on the floor.

As I got back inside, the guys were getting ready to leave. "I'll see you guys later. Bye mom"

Taylor

I was so excited. Me and Jacob were having a sleepover just like we used to. And like old times we sleeping in my room. It was so funny today when he saw me. I could tell he was shocked and he ended up staring. I wasn't surprised for obvious reasons, but he so much cuter in person. His hair grew A LOT but it was incredibly adorable. He was only slightly taller than me. He had on a blue v-neck and cargo shorts with some Jordans along with a dog tag necklace.

As we were going up the stairs, my mom told us not to go to bed too late. But we would anyways.

I changed in the bathroom connected to my room and Jacob came in when I was finished. I was wearing a purple tank top that said "Cool Story, bro" in white letters, black shorts and I took the thing off my hair and left it in the braided bun I put it in. He had on a black wife beater and blue basketball shorts. We had a whole bunch of junk food and decided we would watch movies and play video games. Soon a little rivalry began which resulted in a tie. After that we started talking about the years we've been apart and what we plan on doing.

I don't know exactly when it happened but I was sitting on one of the couches with my feet resing on the table in front of me and Jacob was laying down with his head in my lap.

There was a comfortable silence between us before he broke it.

"Whatcha thinkin' 'bout?"

I looked down at him. "Just...I still can't believe my best friend is famous. I mean I should have expected it but...it's still hard to believe"

"I understand. What do you think about us?"

"I think you guys are really good. All of you have so much talent and are special"

"Awwwww you're making me blush" We both laughed

"I bet you just love all of those girls screaming for you at all of your performances"

He chuckled. "Of course, it's any normal guys dream to be wanted by so many girls. But seriously, there's only one girl that I want" Shit. Did I really just say that?

"Ok, this I gotta hear. Who is she?"

He looked at me like I was crazy. "Who said I'm telling you?"

"Well I'm your best friend so..."

"Sorry but I'm not saying anything"

I sighed. "Puffles..."

He acted like he was annoyed but I could see it in his eyes that he wanted to laugh. "Don't call me that..." he whined

"I'll call you that as much as I want"

"Stop calling me that it's embarrassing."

"Too bad"

"I'm serious"

"If you such a big problem with it...make me" I challenged with a smirk on my face.
He gave me "Oh really" look and stood up. "You asked for it" he said before he started tickling me. I was laughing really hard by now. I managed to get away from only for a second before he chased me and tackled me onto my bed. I could hardly breathe from laughing so much.

"Jacob stop!" I begged. He laughed at how out of breath I was.

"Fine"

I decided to get him back so I knocked him off the bed but he pulled down with him where I ended up beneath him. We started laughing hysterically at ourselves. He pushed himself so that all of his weight wasn't on me.

We calmed down and I tried to get my breathing back to normal. My eyes were closed and I could feel him staring at me. Slowly I opened my and met his brown eyes. His eyes were so sexy. Did I really just think that. I guess I should just stop denying that I like the boy.

We just looked at eachother for what seemed like an eternity until I had the sudden urge to play with his hair. I started twisting a curly strand around my finger.

He smiled down at me. "Having fun?"

"Yep. Your hair is awesome"

"I know"

We were quiet for a while and once again we began looking into each other's eyes again. We sat up, facing each other and before I could stop myself I hugged him again. This time he reacted way quicker and brought me close. I buried my face into his neck and we stayed like that for a few minutes.

When we pulled apart he asked me, "What was that for?"

"I don't know. I'm just happy"

"Me too"

Suddenly I got an idea. "Wanna know a secret?"

"Sure"

"The reason I wanted my room up here is because there's a hidden room"

He looked confused. "Really? Where?"

"Up" I said getting up and practically dragging him with me. I pulled him over near my closet and pushed into a panel in the wall. I made a motion for him to follow me and we went inside. There wasn't that much room but it was big enough for me to put some cushions on the floor and for both of us .to fit in here comfortably.

"Nice. How'd you find it?"

"I bumped into the wall and fell in one day." she said blushing

"Klutz" I teased her

She smacked my arm. "Look out that window you dork"

He grinned at me before he turned to look through it. Outside the window was this amazing view of the city. You could all of the lights downtown and on certain nights, a perfect view of the moon.

"Wow...that's amazing"

"Exactly" I plopped down on the cushions in the corner. They were really soft and comfortable. Jacob came and sat next to me. I leaned against him with my head resting on shoulder. He moved him arm so it was around me. He was warm. I began to get sleepy but I had enough energy to start fiddling with a loose string on his wife beater. He reached for my hand and held on to it. Since he interrupted me I started flicking his fingers and soon we were having a little fight. I giggled a little and felt my eyes getting heavier.

Jacob found the blanket I kept in here and pulled it over us. As I was drifting off I could of sworn I felt him kiss my forehead. I dreamed about him that night, just like I did every night.

I know, I know. It was ridiculously long but I couldn't stop myself, it just kept coming. Anyways...what did you think about this chapter? I'd love to know what your predictions might be as to what will happen between them. Let me know.
