A Simple Love Story. Not!

"I don't like that anymore. I changed my mind!" Joe said the second I walked into my room from changing in the bathroom.

Letting out a sigh of frustration, I walked over to my closet where Joe currently resided and stood behind him, definanlty not amused.

My room was a complete disaster. My clothes were all over the place thanks to a boy named Joseph Adam Jonas, and even though I wouldn't call myself OCD when it came to my clothes, I was really upset that none of it was in the correct spot at the moment.

I liked things clean, and clearly Joe just liked making the mess.

Why did I have to pinkie promise him to do whatever he wanted! Gah! Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!

After a few seconds of listening to Joe critisizing every single peice of my clothing, he picked out a pink shirt that was embroidered in the middle that had a sash attached to it that tied around to the back with a light gray cami to wear underneath it and a pair of jeans.

Why I had to be semi dressed up, I didn't know...but he told me that I had to look nice. Whatever that meant.

He kept looking at me with an expectant look on his face from when he turned around to hand me the outfit and I looked back at him with a 'What?' look on my face.

"Well, go put it on!" he ordered while shoving the clothes into my arms and then forcing me to turn around and shoving me to get me to go to the bathroom to change.

Rolling my eyes I walked out of my room and right as I was to the bathroom, I heard my alarm go off, causing me to spin around and look at my clock to see what time it was.

"9:30? Why did you have to get up at 9:30?" Joe asked me while looking at me with a confused look on his face as he sat on a pile of clothes that was tossed on my bed from all the outfit changing that occured earlier.

The kid wanted me to wear a skirt! How crazy is he? 'It's Wisconsin!' was all I replied back to him whenever he pulled a skirt out for me to wear for him and he simply let out a huff to protest to my remark.

"Crap! I have to work today!" I yelled out once realization hit me and I laid down onto my bed, smacking my forehead a couple of times for my stupidity.

"Ya know..." Joe said with slight wondering in his voice. "You're only hitting yourself when you do that right?" he asked while attempting to grab my hand to make me stop hitting myself while I looked up at him with disbelief at his statement.

Of course I know I'm hitting myself! Duh! That's the point!

"Wow, you're a smart one Joe!" I said slighlty under my breath, sarcastic tone all the way, but when I looked up and saw his smirk on his face I knew I was in for whatever he was thinking at the moment.

"What?" I asked him back slightly nervous.

"Call in to work today!" he simply said with a giant smile on his face.

"No!" I snapped at him while getting up from my bed. "Why do I have to call in?"

"Because you made a pinkie promise to me today and this is our last day here. You promised you were going to make this day fun for me and how can that work when you're going to be working?" he simply asked, a smart ass tone to his statement that I didn't really enjoy to much at the moment. But as soon as I whipped around to tell him no, he sported a puppy dog look and I couldn't resist it. He just looked too damn cute.

"Ugh. Don't do that." I groaned out. "You know that puppy dog looks get me every time!" I finished while my hands over my face to try and resist the look. Not that I really wanted to I mean, I did say he looked incrediable cute sporting it.

"Pwease call in for me?!" he asked in a baby voice and I heard some whimpering on his end of the conversation before hearing his footsteps on my floor coming towards me.

I took the hand that was covering my face and brought it up to his, to try and cover his face up, but he just weaved and bobbed his way away from my hand, making me contort to a giggle attack from his constant moving and the fact that he was still sporting the puppy dog face and whimpering all at the same time.

I kept backing away from him, to counter his advances, but before I knew it, I was backed up against one of my bedroom walls and Joe dropped down to his knees and started rubbing his head against my leg, causing me to crack up into laughter from his dog-like actions.

"Oh my gosh, fine. I'll call in if you promise me to not act like an animal anymore." I managed to get out through my fits of laughter.

"Well, I can't promise anything...." he said while getting up off of his knees. "But I'll see what I can do."

I simply rolled my eyes to prevent myself from laughing some more, and put my hand on his face, shoving him back away from me lightly before walking over to my desk and picking up my cell phone that was resting on it.

"Leave!" I stated when I went through my contacts and had my bosses phone number up on my screen.

"No! I promise I'll be quieter than I was in the hospital." he whined back to me from my bed, causing me to roll my eyes at him yet again before saying a quick 'Fine!' and then hitting the 'talk' button to call my boss.

As I was talking to her, I tried to make myself congested sounding and sniffle a little bit, a cough here and there and luckily since my boss was a major germaphobe, I got away with it. If you even sneezed once at work she instantly asks if you're ok and tells you that if you need to, you can go home.

Once off the phone and able to look over at Joe who was currently clutching his stomach with one hand and covering his mouth with his other, I simply snapped at him.

"What?! I don't have to work so thats all that matters."

"Yeah..." Joe laughed out while trying to control himself from watching my acting capablitlies. "Right!"

After another 5 minutes of Joe laughing at me and me rolling my eyes and scoffing at him he finally said, "Ok, now that that's all settled, can you go and put that outfit on? I want to see you in it." and then pointed to the door for me to leave and go change.

Upon my arrival back into my bedroom, Joe was yet again on my phone and instead of snapping at him quickly, I stood there in the doorway and studied him for a bit.

As weird as it sounds....he was beautiful. Some of his bangs were hanging down and slightly covering his face while he beautiful brown eyes were glued to my phone while his fingers punched away at my keys while he bit his bottom lip slightly out of concentration and I got a weird urge to kiss him.

Well that's new....stop thinking about him like that! He's your best friend...gross!

After shaking my head and getting any images of Joe and I possibly kissing gone from my mind, I walked into my room and said, "So I see you're on my phone. Again!" and went to go retrieve it from him.

"Sorry. I was just...umm...looking at some stuff that's all." he explained and then handed it back to me while I laughed and shook my head.

"I like this a lot!" he said while pointing his index finger at me and sweeping it up and down my body to emphasize my outfit while his eyes lit up slightly and he smiled.

I let out a exasperated, "Finally!" from him finally picking something acceptable to him for the day and started to pick up my clothes that were strewn about my room.

After about 15 minutes and NO help from Joe, I asked him he was hungry and he shook his head vigorously like a little kid.

I just laughed and made my way out of my room, motioning for him to follow me and when he caught up to me on the stairs we both stopped and looked down into the living room to see Nick and Ally still sleeping. Nick had some time during the night, grabbed a couch cushion for a pillow and was currently sleeping on it with Ally laying on his chest while his arms were wrapped around her waist to keep her close to him.

I couldn't help but smile widely from seeing them like that and put my index finger over my mouth to tell Joe to be quiet as we descended down the rest of the stairs and made it into the kitchen.

"What do you want to eat?" I asked him quietly so we didn't wake up the sleeping couple in the other room and Joe just shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know. What do you got?"

I turned around to open the fridge and started listing stuff off.

"Well we have milk, so can have cereal if you want and we also have some eggs in here and some waff-"

"EGGS!" Joe whispered yelled from behind me and I had a hard time trying to contain my laughter for how excited he got from the possibility of having eggs before grabbing them and asking him how many he wanted to have and how he wanted them cooked.

"3 and scrambled with cheese on top." he answered and then opened the fridge back up when I walked over to my cabinets to grab a bowl to put the eggs into. "Do you have any bread so I can make some toast?"

"Umm...yeah. It's in the cabinet, over there." I said while pointing over to the cabinet I was talkign about while grabbing a frying pan from one of the other cabinets before I started stirring the eggs.

Once Joe got the bread out, he started rummaging through the fridge agian, rather loudly and I asked him what he was looking for while pouring the eggs onto the frying pan.

"Butter and Jelly." he simply stated and then lightly bit his bottom lip and I couldn't help but get a tingly sensation upon seeing him do that. He looked so damn hot when he did that and yet adorable at the same time. I couldn't decide which was outweighing the other and I wasn't going to have time to because Joe turned around with an expectant look on his face for me to tell him where the stuff was.

"Umm...the...uh...butter is in the 1st drawer and the the jelly is in the door on the 3rd shelf." I managed to say...stuttering slightly before I composed myself. "I didn't know that you liked butter and jelly on your toast. Everyone makes fun of me when I do that." I said as I started scraping the eggs off of the frying pan and flipping them over.

"Everyone makes fun of me too when I do that!" he said excitedly and I turned around and scolded him for being so loud before peaking my head around the door frame to check on the sleeping couple before asking Joe to get me some cheese and telling him where it was located.

He didn't say anything as I saw the cheese pop into my peripheral vision from my right shoulder and I muttered a thank you before going to another cabinet and grabbing two plates out of it and splitting up the eggs in the pan and putting the cheese over Joe's and letting it melt for a few seconds.

It was semi silent throughout the whole breakfast, us two just sending small smiles at each other and Joe complimenting how good the eggs were until his phone went off from his mother calling him and he dropped a chunk of jelly into his lap, causing me to snort of my laughter from trying to be quiet.

After his quick conversation with his mother, I was rinsing the plates in the sink really quick before I decided to wash them and I got a weird tingly feeling on the back of neck which spread down my arms and back.

I quickly looked over my shoulder and saw Joe staring at me and I quickly asked him what he was looking at with nervous smile and the only response I got from him was a, "Hmmm?" somewhat quietly like he was in some kind of trance and then a few seconds later he asked me "What?" in a realization tone.

"What were you looking at?" I simply asked him before turning around to pay attention to the dishes again but when he said a quiet, "Nothing." I looked back and saw him looking down at the island and playing with his hands.

It was so unusual to see him so.....bashful and yet I kinda liked it. And then it popped into my head of why he would be acting that way and I couldn't help but make fun of him.

"Was Joe Jonas just checking me out and is afraid to admit it?" I asked him playfully, abondoning my spot at the sink to walk towards him, only for him to move his head to the side so I couldn't see his face while he muttered a quiet, "No."

"Aww...it's ok Joe. I was checking you out earlier." I stated, smiled at him when his head popped up and then went back to the dishes.

"Really now?" he questioned with smile clearly heard in his tone and I couldn't help but laugh lightly before saying, "Yeah, but don't think twice about it. I check out a lot of people."

I didn't have to look behind me to know that he was most likely disappointed by my statement because his dejected, "Oh." said it all for me.

"But don't worry." I said to him calmly while looking over my shoulder. "You have by far the cutest butt in the whole world!" and that had done it. Broguht his ego back up from being a sad little kid and he quickly got up from his seat and made his way over to the sink and grabbed the towel that was sitting next to it that I was going to use for drying.

"What are you doing?" I asked him while I started to fill the sink up with water and some bubbles were starting to form so I could wash the dishes and frying pan we used.

"What does it look like I'm doing. I'm going to help you with the dishes." he said back to me with a toothy smile and for some reason, I started to blush.

Who the heck blushes from that?! Seriously?! Gah.....I'm so dumb.

Trying to hide my unexplainable blush for his statement, I went to work on the dishes, handing them off to Joe whenever I rinsed them off after washing them.

When we were finished, there were still quite a bit of bubbles left and it just popped into my head from having Joe putting the frying pan away that I wanted to throw some at him. So I scooped some up into my hand and right when he turned around, saying, "All Done!" I blew them directly into his face and started to crack up.

He stood there shocked for a few seconds before a smirk come onto his face as he asked me, "You think that's funny do ya?!" and then quickly grabbed my wrist and scooped up some bubbles into his one hand while smirking at me.

"Don't you d-" I started and then stopped when I had a whole bunch of bubbles flung at my face while Joe let go of me and ran away, laughing in triumph.

"You look good in bubbles." he simply stated after I wiped them off of my face and he stood on the other side of the island, still trying to die down his laughter.

After being slighlty wet from theh moisture of the bubbles Joe had sent my way I went to go give him a hug, only to have him slip and fall and land right on his butt in the middle of the kitchen, sending me into more hysterics.

"Man, what is with me falling on my butt all the time?!" he asked hime rubbing his butt and as I went over to him to help him up, I slipped on some of the water that had fallen onto the floor from the sink and landed next to him, sending Joe into hysterics for a few seconds before I followed suit.

After about 5 minutes of laughing at each other we heard a throat clear and got up from the floor to see Ally and Nick standing on the other side of the island with and we both said "Sorry." quietly through our giggles.

"Whatever." Nick yawned out while stretching his arms out while Ally rubbed at her eyes and then looked at the clock on the microwave and said, "I guess I'm not going to school again."

From her statement, it reminded me of me having to call in for Joe and I turned to him and asked him what we were doing today and he simply smiled widely and I couldn't help but smile back at him from seeing it.

"You're going to go meet my parents and spend some quality time with them!" he said after a few seconds and the huge smile that was on my face quickly disappeared while I snapped a "What?!" at him.

"I don't want to meet your parents! I just met you about 3 days ago!" I yelled at him while he yelled back, "But you promised! And you don't have to yell." while rubbing his ears.

I let out a huff and crossed my arms over my chest while saying calmly, "I wasn't yelling, I was just talking loudly."

Nick and Ally were trying to stifle their laughter from our little disaggreement and after a few silent seconds passed between Joe and I, he wrapped an arm around my shoulder and pulled me into him while saying, "It won't be that bad. My parents are cool. You're gonna love them!"

I let out a forlorn sigh and then rolled my eyes, knowing that it wasn't that bad and it could be worse.

"I guess it won't be too bad meeting them. At least I'm not meeting them as your girlfriend or anything. That would be more nerve wracking." I said with a fake smile his way to show to him that wanted to go.

It wasn't that I didn't want to, it was just....I just met the kid, face to face, 3 days ago and now he wants me to spend a whole day with them? I normally don't even spend a day with any of my guy friends let alone their parents.

"I slept great last night!" Ally said loudly to Nick and I sent her a appreciated smile for changing the subject.

"So did I." Nick said with an adorable smile. "Why don't you come along too? Ya know, to meet my parents. We could have a relaxing day today before we have to leave." he suggested and unlike me, Ally was all for it, saying that she's going to go take a shower and that she'd see him later while giving him a hug goodbye before leaving the kitchen.

Once she was out of his sight, Nick turned to Joe and I said, "Come on Joe. Let's get going to so they can get ready and so can we." and then came over and gave me a quick hug before heading towards the door where his jacket and shoes were.

"So I'll see you later?" Joe asked somewhat sadly while he gave me a hug and I couldn't understand how he was so happy about me coming to meet his parents two minutes ago and then when he had to leave he got all depressed.

Oh wait...nevermind.

I couldn't help but smile to myself after realizing that he didn't want to leave and that was why he was so depressed and gave him a hug back.

"Yep. I'll call you to see where you're staying and we'll meet up in about 2 hours. Knowing Ally, she'll need that much time!" I finished with a laugh and I managed to get him to chcukle slightly when Ally's voice yelled from the stairs saying, "I heard that!"

"Bye guys and we'll see you later!" I said as Joe and I walked towards the door and they said a quick bye as they walked out.

When I shut the door, I leaned up against it and slowly slid down it...having to get fully ready to spend the day with the Jonas's.

This is going to be interesting.
