There he was singing his heart ou on stage once again, but tonight was different. Tonight, the pressure was on. Tonight, she was watching him.
He looked down into the audience. There she was looking up at him. He smiled and she smiled back.
Normally they waited to do 'When You Look Me In the Eyes' until the encore, but Nick had arranged so they would perform it earlier and he would pull her onstage to sing it to her.
They finished 'BB Good' and Joe gave Nick a nod. Nick looked down at her, her bangs falling into her eyes, but still smiling. Nick smiled back and mouthed 'Come onstage?' to her. She nodded, Nick was in heaven. He stretched his arm out for her and she reached for his hand.
"Nick!"
Nick smiled.
"Nicholas Jerry Jonas!"
Nick awakened to his mother yelling at him. He groaned.
"Hurry up! Today's a busy day!"
Nick mumbled, "Everyday is a busy day."
His mom gave him a dirty look and Nick went to his photoshoot. He couldn't help but think of her the entire time. His dream girl, the girl he hadn't seen in so long.
Next was an interview. Nick was relieved, interviews didn't require too much attention. He sat on an uncomfortable chair beside Joe, Kevin on Joe's other side.
The interviewer was a plain looking brunette that was trying to flirt with Kevin. She was mostly talking to his older brothers, so Nick only had to answer a few simple questions.
It wasn't until a question that he was asked all the time that he made a mistake.
"Nick, are you thinking of someone special right now?" asked the interviewer who was barely paying attention.
"Of course," Nick answered without thinking, "I've been thinking of Emily all day."
Joe, Kevin, the interviewer, and even Mrs. Jonas turned and turned and looked at Nick in surprise.
"Emily?" the interviewer asked, surprised that someone had actually answered that question honestly. "Emily Osment?"
Nick's mouth dropped open, realizing his mistake.
xXx oOo xXx
"Since when has my little brother liked Emily?" Joe asked, messing up Nick's hair playfully.
Nick swatted away Joe's hand. "Since we were on Hannah Montana, when we kept rehearsing that awkward hug. That cute little giggle when you were showing her how..." Nick was lost in his memories now. He was thinking of Emily hanging out with him offset, laughing at him while he tried to get a marshmallow out of his hair.
Kevin interrupted his happy memories, "Wait, didn't you start dating Miley right after that?"
Nick blushed. "well, yeah. I was crushing on her since forever and she finally wanted to go out. Sure, I had finally gotten over her, but that was my shot. I had to try, Kev."
Kevin shook his head, disappointed with his younger brother. "Nick that doesn't make it right."
Nick rolled his eyes. "It's not like I didn't have feelings for Miley. And she was the one who went off making out with her backup dancer, not me."
"Did you tell Miley about your feelings for Emily?" Kevin asked.
Nick shook his head.
"That's what I thought," Kevon said trying to prove a point.
Nick groaned. "Why do you always have to do that?"
"What are you talking about?"
"You always act like your old and mature when I've done something wrong. I'm sock of it. You're twenty years old yet any other time you act like you're four." Nick jumped up and went to his bunk.
There was a message on his IPhone. It was Alyson Stoner. Nick and Alyson had become close friends ever since filming 'Camp Rock'.
The text read 'Did you really say you like Emily in an interview?'
Nick spoke out loud, "Dang, word travels fast." He sighed and answered honestly.
As soon as he sent his response to Alyson, Joe jumped onto his bunk. Joe had a goofy grin on his face that told Nick that he was about to feel better or get very pissed off.
"Hey, little bro," Joe said, stretching out the 'hey' and moving his eyebrows up and down.
Nick couldn't help but laugh softly.
"Did you see Kev's face when you yelled at him?" Joe said happily. "It was hilarious, I thought he was gonna explode...or implode...which one's the cool one again?" He didn't wait for Nick's answer. "Anyway, what's this about Emily? She's a cutie, you've got good taste. You can tell we're brothers."
Nick laughed softly again. This is why he loved Joe, Joe had this power of making things better.
"So...what are you gonna do when Emily hears? Or are you gonna call her and tell her yourself? I think it would be better if you call her, and fas. You know how much we love gossip."
Nick's eyes widened. Joe was right, he had to call Emily and quickly. He dialed her number rapidly and shooed Joe away. Joe laughed and went to his own bunk.
First ring. Of gosh! What am I gonna say? How do you tell someone you've been thinking of them constantly for a year?
Second ring. What will she say? Will she laugh and call me a dork? Will she say she feels the same way?
Third ring. What if someone's already told her? What if she gets embarrassed and hates me for it.
"Hello!"
That's her voice. Nick smiled. Wait, I've gotta talk back.
"Uh, hi Em...there is something I've got to tell you."
"Uh, okay. What is it Nick?"
"Well, I just...uh...Em, I...umm...I really like you Emily, like really really like you!" He said all at once, relieved that he'd finally said it.
There was silence at the other end.
