Always and Forever

Chapter Twenty One.

“Red or white roses?” I asked Joe curiously as I flipped through Brides magazine. We’ve been home for three weeks and Joe wants the wedding to happen already. So, he’s been rushing me to do all of the planning.

“I don’t know, baby,” he said to me as he rolled his eyes and continued to focus on the Guitar Hero game that was playing, I took it upon myself to smack his arm, “Ow! What was that for?”

“You need to help me make some of the decisions, Joe,” I said to him rudely as his eyes stayed glued to the flat screen, “I can’t make all of them on my own, it’s our wedding, not just mine.”

“I don’t care about that stuff though,” he said as he pounded on the guitar controller harder, “That’s girl stuff.” He then began to lift up the guitar to set off the star power and he licked his lips as he concentrated.

I grabbed the guitar control out of his hands and set it on the floor next to me, “Too bad, now help me,” I scolded him as he sighed and frowned; all of a sudden I began to feel extremely nauseas, “I think I’m going to be sick.” I placed my hand over my mouth and bolted to our bathroom. I pulled the toilet seat up quickly and as soon as I did I threw up in the bowl. I dropped to my knees and continued hurling.

All of a sudden I felt my hair being held back and Joe’s hand on my lower back, “Let it all out, baby,” he said to me in a soothing tone as he rubbed my back gently, “Ew.”

I didn’t even have time to yell at him, I just continued to throw up, “Thanks a lot, Joe,” I said to him after a few moments, “This is all your fault.”

“Don’t be mad at me,” he said as he pressed his lips against my temple, “Throwing up isn’t a big deal, it could be worse.”

He stood up and flushed the toilet for me, “You didn’t have to come in here and take care of me,” I said as I looked up at him and began to stand up.

“Of course I did,” he exclaimed as he wrapped his arms around my body, “I like taking care of you, because I love you,” I couldn’t help but smile, I reached up to kiss his lips but he moved his head quickly, “Um, please brush your teeth first.” He smiled politely.

After laughing slightly I nodded and made my way to the bathroom sink. I heard Joe’s cell phone go off; he patted my butt lightly and walked out of the bathroom. I was brushing my teeth when I heard Joe say, “Oh, no.” I finished quickly and walked back into our bedroom.

“What happened, babe?” I asked him curiously as I walked up to him and placed my hands on his hips, he was looking at his cell phone intensely.

He sighed, “Look what Garbo just tweeted,” he said dully as he handed me his black iPhone.

Greggarbo: Any ideas on what to get @joejonas as a wedding gift?

Great! Now the whole world knows about us getting married. The media didn’t even know about our engagement and we had planned on keeping it that way. That plan was ruined now. Hopefully, our pregnancy will remain secretive. My fingers are crossed on that one.

@greggarbo Thanks for blowing our cover, Greg. :P It was supposed to be a secret. – Jewel

I signed my name because I was tweeting from Joe’s twitter. I didn’t have one. I don’t want people stalking my every movie, no, thank you. Joe’s phone buzzed in my hand again.

Nickjonas: Secrets out! Congrats to my bro @joejonas on his engagement to my best friend Jewel! Love you guys!

“Are you having fun?” Joe said as he laughed lightly and took his phone out of my hands, “You should really make a twitter, baby, it’s so fun!” He began to tweet on his phone again.

“I’d rather not be addicted,” I said as he pressed send on his phone and stuffed it into his pocket, I pushed him on the bed and crawled on top of him, “I love you.” I pressed my lips against his and I felt him smile against my lips.

“Mmm, I can tell,” he said as he kissed me back and placed his hands on my hips, “White roses.”

“What do you want the baby to be?” Nina asked me curiously a few days later.

We were all in the studio with Nick. Joe and Kevin were next to the recording machines and we were on the couch. Nick was, of course, in the recording booth.

I shrugged, “I don’t know,” I said as I glanced at Joe who leaning over the machine and concentrating deeply, “I think we both want a girl.” I smiled as I looked back at them.

“What do you think it’ll look like?” Bailey asked as she giggled, “I hope it gets the genes that Nick god, curly hair and gorgeous features.”

I laughed, “It would be cute, but the last thing I need is for the baby to come out looking like anyone other than Joe,” I said as they nodded in agreement, “Can you just imagine the things people would say?”

“That’s true, I suppose,” Bailey said and then her smile brightened, “Miley called my phone this morning and Nick yelled at her. Oh my goodness, it was hilarious.”

I couldn’t help but laugh, “She still hasn’t left you alone?” Nina asked her in disbelief, “Danielle has stopped calling Kevin months ago.”

“Miley’s just obsessed with Nick,” I said to them as I rolled my eyes, “It’s actually extremely pathetic on her part, you know?”

“I don’t blame her though,” Bailey smiled as she glanced at Nick, “Look at him, he’s perfect.” Her eyes became dreamy as she stared at him.

“Yes, Bailey, we all know Kevin is perfect,” Nina said as she stared at Kevin,” I mean look at that booty, yummy.”

Just as she said that last sentence Joe had turned around his face was priceless, “That is so disgusting,” he said with a disgusted look on his face, “That’s my brother, ew!”

I laughed hysterically as I put my fingers inside of his belt loops and pulled him towards me, “This is the only perfect Jonas, anyway,” I said proudly as Joe grinned at me, “The only one that there will ever be… until we have our babies.”

“Whatever,” Bailey and Nina said at the exact same time; the two of them looked at each other and then busted out into laughter.

“You have really weird friends, baby,” Joe said as he bent down to kiss my lips softly, in the middle of our kiss his body jerked somewhat violently, “Ow.” Nina and Bailey and smacked him.

Just moments later Denise walked into the studio, “Your engagement is everywhere!” She exclaimed as she handed me the magazine that she was holding, everyone in the room sighed, “I’m going to have a serious talk with Greg when I see him.”

Later that night, Joe and I were on our bed in our pajamas, “Can I ask you something?” he said as he looked down at his hands nervously and sighed.

I made a curious face, “Of course, baby,” I told him as I grabbed his hands and he looked at me directly, “You can ask me anything, whenever you want.”

He smiled slightly, “I was just wondering…do you think I’m going to make a good dad?” he asked as he took a deep breath.

I smiled at him as I wrapped my arms around his neck tightly, “Yes, Joe, I think you’re going to be an amazing dad,” I told him honestly as I glued my lips to his, “I don’t have any doubt in my mind, about you, whatsoever.”

He sighed in relief, “I hope you’re right,” he said as he pulled me on top of his body quickly as I giggled against his lips, “I want to be the best dad in the world.”

“And you will be,” I told him truthfully.

I meant it one hundred percent. Joe had a heart of gold. He was so considerate and caring of others. He was genuine, too. Not to mention he acts like a child sometimes, not in a bad way though. He’s just so playful and loving; I knew he was going to be a wonderful dad.

“I want a monkey,” he said randomly with a serious face. I stared at him to see if his facial expression was going to change but it didn’t, “I think it would be really cool.”

The thought sunk into my head and I smiled at him, “It would have to be really small,” I said to him as he grinned excitedly, “I get to name her.”

He nodded in agreement, “Alright, fine, she can be our daughter before our daughter,” he said as he laughed at his own joke, “First thing tomorrow we’re going to the pet shop!”

We spent about two hours in the pet store the next afternoon looking at different types of monkeys. There were all sorts of sizes and we needed to make sure we got one that didn’t grow in size. It took awhile to pick because Joe wanted a chimpanzee, but I told him he was nuts.

“Do you know how cool it would be to have a chimp?” Joe said as he looked at me with a sad face, “I could teach it to do all of the chores around the apartment.”

“Are you insane? Do you know how big those things get?” I told him as he sighed, “It could turn on you one day and then you’ll be dead, do you want that to happen?” He rolled his eyes.

The lady that was helping us came out of one of the back rooms holding the cutest monkey I’ve ever seen, she was wearing a bright pink dress and she wore a diaper, “This, here, is a Capuchin, she’s only a few months old and she won’t get much bigger than this,” she explained to us as my mouth turned into a huge grin.

“Can I hold her?” I asked the lady politely as she nodded with a warm smile and placed the monkey into my arms, she looked up at me with bright brown eyes and began to suck on her thumb, “Oh my god, baby, she’s adorable, I love her.”

“Are these well-behaved?” Joe asked the lady curiously as he ran his thumb against the monkeys cheek slowly, “She won’t like… go all crazy monkey on will she?”

The lady laughed lightly, “No, you have to discipline her now that way she knows right from wrong later on,” she said to us, “They are extremely intelligent primates and so loving.”

“How much is she?” Joe asked curiously as I kissed the top of her head softly.

“This one is 6,500,” she told us as I heard Joe take a deep breath, “It’s well worth it though, she’s extremely rare and she’s going to be a great pet.”

Joe looked at me and I smiled widely at him, “Happy Birthday, Merry Christmas, Happy Anniversary, Happy Valentine’s Day for the next five years,” he said as I glared at him, “I’m not kidding.”

I rolled my eyes, “Yes, you are, you know you wouldn’t do that to me,” I said as I reached up and kissed his lips about five times, “And besides, this was your idea.”

Just then the monkey jumped on Joe’s shoulder and wrapped her little arms around his head, “Well, this is interesting,” Joe said as he laughed lightly and ran his hands up and down her tiny back, “Okay, we’ll take her.”
