| Just Friends {Episode 9} Part 2Tue, 06 Jan 2009 18:10:38 -0800 by Alexagjbfan1214After what could've been mistaken as forever, people started heading out of the venue. There were bawling girls, clutching their souvenirs and clinging to each other and yelling out: "GO JONAS BROTHERS!" The concert was over. I watched as all of the happy faces filed past me. Suddenly my phone vibrated. It was Kevin.KEVIN: Where are you? We're about to leave soon.ALEXA: I'll be right there..I stood up and headed backstage, showed the security guard my pass, and went to the dressing room. I knocked on the door and not even a millisecond had passed before the door flew open and Kevin barked, "Where were you?""I was..outside," I said, walking into the room. I looked at the ground. "We didn't see you during the last few songs. Did you leave the venue?" asked Joe. I nodded and then looked around and didn't see Nick. Where was he? As hurt as I was, he was the only face I wanted to see at that moment. "Why did you leave?" asked Kevin. His arms were crossed and he looked angry. I felt really bad. "It was getting loud and I felt nauseous. That's all," I said. Once again, there was another half-truth, half-lie. I've been saying a lot of those lately. "Well...okay," said Kevin. Joe didn't say another word. He sat on the sofa and looked at the floor. I turned to Kevin, holding back tears."Where's Nick?" I asked."We don't know," said Kevin. "As soon as we got off stage, he went off somewhere."As if on cue, the door opened and Nick walked in, wiping his eyes. His face was flushed and he was sniffling. He looked up and saw me and then looked away. "I didn't..expect to see you..in here," he said, sitting on the sofa next to Joe."If you want..I'll leave," I said, softly. "We have to go anyway, guys. Come on," said Kevin. "Be prepared to run into some screaming fans on the way out." "Great," mumbled Nick. I stood by the door, watching Nick gather his things and then he looked up and saw me watching him. "Do you need anything?" he asked.A miracle would be nice, I thought."No, I don't need anything. I was just..seeing if you were okay. You seemed upset and-""-and I cried on stage," he finished for me. "I know. It's nothing. I've just..got a lot on my mind." He stared into space for a few minutes before gathering the rest of his things. I felt really bad now. Maybe I should just forget about the note thing..I hope I didn't mess anything up for him. Just looking at him made me want to drop to my knees and cry. I really wished I had a time machine so I could go back in time and start this vacation over. I'm such a self-centered little brat. I could feel my throat closing up and a huge lump took place. I swallowed hard, not wanting to have a breakdown in front of Nick.Nick looked up from what he was doing and gazed at me intently and said, "Are you alright? You look like you're going to cry."When he said that, it made the tears want to come faster. I managed to nod my head and choke out, "I'm fine."He set his stuff down by the door and walked over to me."Hey, don't worry about me," he said sincerely, placing his hands on my shoulders and looking into my eyes. "Everything's going to be okay. Trust me." He patted me on the shoulder and then walked out to the black SUV with Kevin and Joe a little ways ahead of us. A few screaming fans were shouting out their usual "I LOVE YOU"'s as we hopped in the car. My shoulder was still warm from Nick's comforting touch. And the way he looked at me..with those chocolate brown eyes..it made me believe that things really would be okay. The ride home was so quiet, you could hear a pin drop. The silence was somewhat uncomfortable. Kevin kept looking at me, and I knew he was probably trying to sort out what was going on. Joe was looking out the window, probably confused and Nick stared down at his hands. I stared up at the stars, my thoughts were never ending. I knew that I'd never be with him, not in this lifetime anyway. I just needed to realize he was going to be with someone else, and I had to move on as well. However, I had a feeling that no matter how many times I told myself the cold, hard truth, my heart wouldn't want to listen. This is a crush that I don't think would ever go away. Then..is it really a crush? Or true love? That's silly, it can't be true love..can it? Why does love have to be so confusing? "Tell me why you're so hard to forget. Don't remind me. I'm not over it. Tell me why I can't seem to face the truth. I'm just a little too not over you.." Song Link: http://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=Up-iculdf wAEnd of Chapter 9. I hope you enjoyed it. Yes, I have to admit it was a bit sad, but love hurts sometimes. If you are confused about what is going on, everything will soon be cleared up, so don't worry. I hope you're enjoying Just Friends so far and I have to get to sleep soon, so I'll see you all next time! I love you guys! =D Related: brothers episode friends joe jonas just kevin love nick onetruemedia part story | |
