Chapter 6
After leaving the stage everybody broke out in the streets. Music was booming out of speakers and people were dancing and laughing, just having a good time.
As I walked up and down the streets tons of people were telling me what a good job I did and I had an amazing voice. I just smiled and thanked them. After a while I found Selena and Mac, holding hands. I smiled at her, “Hey girl.”
“Hey girl”, she said back as she smiled and blinked twice at me, “you did amazing! Oh and Joe was looking for you by the way.”
“Really?” I asked eagerly and felt my heart jump. I settled down and smiled, “Oh really? Well where did he go?”
Selena smiled mischievously, “He went that way.”
I smiled and thanked her, “Oh and your staying at my place tonight, ok?”
Selena smiled, “Fine with me.”
I walked past them and worked my way through the crowd. People started to die down and no one was really around. I looked and sighed, “Maybe he left.”
Suddenly I felt something hit the back of my head. I looked around, something hit my neck. I spun around in a complete circle, not seeing whoever threw it. I finally felt one hit my forehead and looked up, Joe was in a tree, throwing skittles at me. He smiled, “Why don’t you come join me?”
I looked down at my white dress and back up at him, “I’ll be up in a minute.”
I walked towards the tree and slipped my shoes off. I grabbed a hold of the first branch and pulled myself up. Once I reached the third branch I started to crawl out towards Joe, “This is crazy.”
“Crazy is what crazy does”, Joe said as he smiled. I looked at him, “You’re crazy.”
I say again”, Joe said as he helped me sit next to him, “crazy is what crazy does.”
I looked around, “So what are you doing up here?”
“I heard a farting squirrel”, Joe said with a big smile on his face. I giggled. He shook his head, “Naw I’m just kidding. But I was hunting.”
“Hunting?” I asked, “For what?”
“Oh this girl with dark brown hair and eyes. Have you seen her? She’s about five foot two inches and she’s wearing a white dress with a red ribbon tied around her waist. Amazing girl, you should meet her.”
I smiled at him, “I was looking for you too.”
“Really because sometimes I think girls want to run away from me”, Joe said with a smile. I shook my head, “Why would I run away from a guy like you?”
Joe smiled and leaned closer to me, “There’s something above your head.”
I looked at him, “If its bug get it off.”
Joe laughed. “It’s not a bug”, he said as he pulled a rose down and placed it in front of me, “Will you be my valentine?”
I smiled and accepted the rose, ‘Of course.”
Joe smiled, “You know, you have an incredible voice.”
I blushed, “Thanks. That means a lot coming from you.”
Joe smiled, “Well… I was talking to some producers and stuff for the movie my brothers and I were telling you about and they want you to come and try out.”
I looked at him, “Me? Seriously?”
“Yes seriously”, Joe said as he touched my hand. I felt a jolt shoot up my arms and make me blush about three different shades of red. Joe smiled, “I want you to try out too.”
I bit my lip as I looked down at his hand on mine. He leaned in closer to me, our lips were almost touching. Suddenly we heard someone call, “Hey, that’s Joe Jonas!”
It scared me and him, but Joe was the one that jumped and started falling backwards. I watched as he slipped off and hit the ground hard, listening to him moan, “I’m okay.”
My mouth dropped, “Joe…”
“I’m really okay”, Joe said as he just laid there. I started to climb down when I saw Natashia come running up and kneel next to him, “Oh Joe, you’re so funny. You know you’re a little too big to be climbing trees.”
Joe looked at her and back up at me, “Darling…”
“Coming sweetheart”, I said with a smile. Joe smiled back up at me and gave me a wink, we were so bad. I carefully climbed down and helped him up, he leaned on me and kissed my cheek, “Thank you, love.”
I smiled and kissed his cheek, “You complete me.”
Joe chuckled and Natashia started turning red with anger. We carefully walked away, Joe leaning in and whispering in my ear, “You complete me… that’s good.”
I looked at him and smiled, “Well ‘darling’ want to go out on the lake?”
“You got a boat or something?” he asked. I nodded, “ A small row boat.”
Frankie came running up, “Can I go out too?”
Joe looked at him and sighed. “We’re gonna need a bigger boat”, he said with a smile. I laughed as we began to walk towards the lake.
