I kinda wrote a lot. lol. Enjoy!!
Part IV (Four)
Joe’s POV
“Bye Mom! Bye Dad!” I yelled walking out the door, car keys in hand. I was wearing a pretty casual outfit, consisting of jeans, just a regular shirt I’d gotten off of a photo shoot a couple of weeks ago, a vest thing from a photo shoot, and Vans. I didn’t want to get too dressy, since this was a concert and all, and I didn’t was to be too casual, because we were going out to dinner.
“Wait!” Mom said running up to me. I turned on my heel real quick to see what was up. “What?” I asked. “Do you have money? Keys? Tickets?” she asked. I nodded at each thing she said as she ran down her mental check list. “Ok. Well, have fun” she said giving me a kiss on the cheek. “I will. Oh, and, do I look ok?” I asked spinning around. “Very nice” she said. “Night. Don’t wait up” I said, and walked out the door.
I jumped into my black Range Rover and started towards Mia’s house. She lived actually pretty close.
As I pulled into her drive way, my heart seemed to be beating faster. I hoped everything would go ok. I wonder what she’d be wearing. Or what she’d think about what I was wearing.
“Hey” Mia said as she opened her front door. I’d just rang the doorbell about 4 seconds ago. I guessed she must’ve been waiting there. “Hey. Are you ready to go?” I asked. Mia nodded. “Night Mom! Night Dad!” She yelled. “Wait honey!” I guessed the voice to be her mom’s yelled. “Hi, I’m Leslie” She said holding out her hand. “Nice to meet you ma’am. I’m Joe Jonas” I said politely. “Nice to meet you too” she said. “Um, is there a specific time you’d like me to bring Mia back by ma’am?” I asked. “Um, no, just not too late” She said. “Ok. Well goodnight” I said. “Night mom” Mia said kissing her mom on the cheek. “Night sweetie. Have fun” she said, and with that, me and Mia were out the door.
Part V (Five)
Mia’s POV
Joe looked so hot. I wonder if he thought I did too. I didn’t look like I did when we met earlier. I wonder if he liked that way, the whole goth thing, or this way better.
“Um, so, do you like steak?” he asked. “Yeah. I love it. It’s my favorite” I said. “Really? Well, that’s good. Because I thought that we could go to that new steak house in Beverly Hills. The Toxic Vomit concert is there anyways” he said. “Ok. Sounds great” I said.
“You look really pretty” he said quickly. “Really?” I asked. He nodded. “You look different then you did this afternoon. A lot different. Like, you were all goth and stuff earlier. Now you’re like, preppy almost” he said. “Is preppy ok? Or do you like goth better?” I asked. Joe laughed. “No, no, no. I like what you’re wearing. You look really pretty. I’m just saying, it’s like a you’re a different person almost. But in a totally good way. I just have on question for you” Joe said. “What?” I asked. “Who are you? Like, are you more into what you’re wearing right now, or is this just evening wear for you, like date night clothes, or are you more of a gothy dresser all the time” he asked. It took me a while to answer. I sighed. “Sorry. I mean, if you don’t want to…” Joe started. “No, it’s cool. I was just thinking about my answer. Um, well, I’m kinda two different people. I used to dress like this all the time, but then I started to dress like you saw me today all the time. So now, I dress both ways. This was I dress less of though” I said. Joe nodded. “Why?” he asked. I shrugged. “Different reasons” I said. No way was I going to tell him my situation right now. Not on our first date.
“What about you?” I said. “What about me?” Joe laughed. “Well, you’re a rock star. Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers. All around hottie and teen-heart-throb” I joked. He laughed. “Yeah, but there’s more to me then just that” He replied. “I know. There’s always more to people then what meets the eye” I said. “Like you?” he asked. “Yeah. Like me” I agreed.
Joe and I had dinner at the steak house in Beverly Hills, and it was really good. “So, ready for the concert?” Joe asked. “Born ready” I said. Joe laughed again, and I laughed with him. “Ever been to a concert?” he asked me. I nodded. “I’ve been to Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, Riot, The Veronicas, Ashley Tisdale…” I started. “Wait, Ashley Tisdale?” he questioned. “Yeah, why?” I asked. “You just don’t seem like you’d be into her” he said. I laughed. “Yeah, well, I’ve only been to one, and it was just me and Melody” I said. “Ever been to Toxic Vomit?” he asked. I shook my head ‘no’. “We were going to go once, but at the last minute I couldn’t.” I said. “We as in…?” Joe asked. “Me, Melody, Jade, Bella, Kyle, and Chris” I said. Joe nodded. “No offense, but your friends were a little scary. Not Melody, but the others” Joe said. “I know. They kinda are” I laughed. “Why couldn’t you go?” Joe asked. I hesitated to answer. The truth was that Jade, Bella, Kyle, Chris, Melody, and I had been to a party the night before the concert. It wasn’t one of those nice little parties where there’s no alcohol or anything. There was tons of it. Someone switched my drink with a beer or something, and it made me sick. They also slipped something into my drink that had made me even sicker, and I was puking all night and the next day. “Uh, something came up” I lied. Joe nodded. Was this the kind of relationship I wanted with Joe? One that was filled of lies? No, but for now that’s the way it would be until I could fully trust him, not that I didn’t already.
Part VI
Joe’s POV
Mia looked really, really pretty. She was like a new person. She was a lot of fun too. I hadn’t been on a date this fun in years.
Something seemed wrong with her though. With her arms, actually. She kept tugging on her sleeve, and she wouldn’t let me touch her arms. Maybe she was like, abused or something. But her mom seemed so nice. She wouldn’t abuse her. But I hadn’t met her dad, so I couldn’t really say the same for him since I didn’t know. Or she could’ve just injured it somehow. Whatever though.
Mia and I had 3 row floor seats through the concert and we were dead center. They were awesome. They started off playing my favorite song “Crying Heart” and moved on to their other big hits like “Not Tomorrow” and “Hate You”, all which were amazing.
“This is awesome!” Mia yelled to me during the show. “I know!” I yelled back.
Mia’s POV
The show as amazing! They were even better in concert than on their CD, I guess because it was live.
The only problem with the night was me. Well, my arms really. The really, really hurt. I looked down at them to see my left arm sleeve darker then when the night had started. It was covered in blood where the cuts were. Crap I thought. Oh my gosh. What do I do? I couldn’t tell Joe, or else he’d think I was totally freaky or something. But if I didn’t, it could be really bad. But we were having so much fun.
The then whole night turned even more crazy. I looked to the right side of the stage, and up in the stands was Jade and Chris. Oh My God I thought. Please Don’t See Me. I don’t think that they had, and I wanted to make sure that they didn’t. They couldn’t know that I was on a date with Joe. No way. They hated him and his brothers, even though I secretly loved them. I backed up so I was hidden behind Joe, since he was on their side of the stage. “You ok?” he asked. “Yeah. Fine” I lied. “Sure?” he asked. I nodded. No, I wasn’t really ok now. My arms were bleeding, my so called ‘friends’ who really weren’t my friends because of all the abuse they’d put me through were here, and I really had to go to the bathroom. And on top of that, I think my bra was starting to come undone. “I have to go to the bathroom” I told him. “Hold on. I’ll come too. I have to go anyway” Joe said and we started out and up to the bathrooms.
“Are you sure that you’re alright?” Joe asked. I nodded. I had my arms crossed against my chest so he couldn’t see the blood. He put his arm around me and guided me to the bathroom. “Wow, you sure know your way around this place” I said. “We’ve played here a couple of times. You learn to know the arenas” he said.
I ran into the bathroom when we reached them and pulled my shirt sleeves up. My arms were bleeding a lot. The left more then the right. I took a paper towel and soaked it in water, placing it on my arms. It stung, but I knew that I had to do it. I couldn’t take to long either. I didn’t want to keep Joe waiting.
I glanced at my cell phone. It was only 10:45. I fixed my bra, and went to the bathroom before rejoining Joe. “Are you sure you’re alright?” Joe asked me. “Perfect” I lied again.
Joe’s POV
Something was definitely up with Mia. And I knew it had to be about her arms. I kept trying to catch a glance at them without making it obvious. When I finally did, I’m surprised that my jaw didn’t drop open right then and there. Her left arm sleeve was stained red with blood. Was she emo or something? I was tempted to grab her wrists and check them out, but I didn’t want to freak her out too much. I wasn’t really freaked out about it, but at the same time I was. She obviously had a few problems. I still liked her though, and I wasn’t going to blow her off just for that. She was too much fun, too sweet, and too cool to do that to.
I don’t think she wanted to go back to the show though. “Hey, do you wanna blow this and go get some ice cream?” I asked. “Um, sure, sounds great” Mia agreed, and we started back out.
I have to admit, I was a little worried for her. I didn’t want to say anything, but eventually I would. It was for her own health. I really cared about her now, and I knew that I’d have to some time. Just, not right now.
