((Joe)) Oh How The Tables Have Turned ((Jonas))
One
"Hey Nessa."
"Oh hi Joe." I said as I blushed a light shade of pink.
"Why are you reading it is summer." He said as he closed my book.
"Because I love to read. It is fun." I said as I pushed my glasses farther up my nose.
"Your such a nerd sometimes Nessa." He said as he ruffled my hair.
I blew my bangs out of my eyes and looked at Joe, admiring ever beautiful part of him. It still amazed me that a 16-year-old boy could be so amazingly handsome.
"So I came over to ask if you wanted to come over to my house and hang out with me and my brothers. Mandy will be there too." He said casually as he leaned back in my desk chair.
"Well sure,if Mandy will be there." I said as I got up off of my bed and slipped into my flip flops.
We walked over to the Jonas' house in silence as I took small unnoticeable glances at the boy beside me.
Well I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Vanessa Ryans. I'm 16 and hopelessly in love with Joseph Adam Jonas. He would never know it though. He wasn't into girls like me I guess you could say. His type was more of someone like Mandy. Even though I had blond hair a few shades lighter than her and brighter blue eyes I still wouldn't consider myself anything close to Mandy. She was beautiful, graceful, popular, and I was pretty much the opposite. I wore glasses that hide my eyes and I guess you could say I was a bit on the nerdy side. Compared to Mandy I was nothing. The only reason I hung out with someone as popular as Joe was because we have lived give houses down from each other since I could remember. I was close to all the Jonas boys but I was closest to Nick. He was the only one who knew about my love for the middle Jonas. Nick was like my baby brother and I knew I could tell him anything. He was truly my best friend.
I sighed as I walked into the all too familiar house that belonged to the Jonas'. I had spent most of my childhood running around this house along with Kevin, Joe and Nick.
"Hi Vanessa!" Frankie said as I entered the house.
"Hey Tank! How is my best buddie?" I asked as I picked him up into my arms.
"Good! How is my bestest buddie?" He said with a sly smirk that reminded me of one his older brother often wore.
"Good." I said as I started to tickle him.
Joe was already down in the basement with the others so it was just me and Tank.
"Nessa I have to tell you something but it is top secret okay?" Frankie said in a whisper.
"Okay go ahead buddie! I promise I won't tell anyone." I said as I set him on the floor.
"Well I don't like Mandy. I heard her saying mean stuff about you when she was on the phone and she didn't know I was there. She was saying really mean stuff and then laughing about it. I don't think you should like her either Nessa." He said knowingly.
I felt like I had been stabbed in the back. Mandy always made it seem like I was a really good friend to her and I have never talked about her behind her back. She was supposed to be my friend.
"Thanks for looking out for me Tank." I said as I ruffled his hair.
"Anything for my bestest buddie." He said before hugging my legs and pulling me down into the basement.
I sighed when I saw Joe teaching Mandy the guitar. Frankie pulled me to the couch and he sat down on my lap.
"Oh hey Vanessa!" Mandy said with a smile that was probably fake.
I smiled weakly in return in looked down at Frankie who kept shooting her dirty looks.
I felt someone slid onto the couch next to me and turned to see Nick.
"Hey Nessa!" He said cheerfully.
"Hey Nicky." I said in return.
"Are you okay?" He asked as he noticed my distress.
"Yeah I'm fine." I said putting on a fake smile and pushed my glasses up.
He gave me a knowing look and I sighed.
"I'll tell you later." I said softly.
He nodded satisfied and turned to Kevin and started a conversation.
I pretty much just sat there not really talking to anyone for the next hour. I would talk to Nick and Frankie but that was it. Frankie was now asleep on my lap and I was tired myself even though it was only 8:00.
"I think I'm gonna leave." I said into Nick's ear.
"Okay bye Nessa." He said giving me a comforting hug.
"We are still going to talk about this later." He said into my ear.
I nodded as I picked up Frankie and started to carry him up out of the basement and into his bedroom.
After tucking Tank into bed and turning off the light I walked down the hall and into the living room. I was about to open the front door when Joe cleared his throat.
"Oh hey." I said awkwardly as I pulled my hand off of the door handle.
"Are you leaving?" He asked.
"Uh yeah. I was just going to you because it is late." I said stumbling over my words slightly.
"It is only 8." He stated.
"I know that I was just you know. I wasn't feeling well." I said as I avoided his gaze.
"Are you okay Vanessa? You are acting kind of strange." He asked.
"I'm fine Joe. Honestly." I said as I reached for the door handle.
"Okay I'll talk to you tomorrow." He said before walking back into the basement.
I let out a long breath and walked out of the Jonas' house. I still couldn't believe that Mandy was talking about me behind my back. I knew Frankie wasn't lying because he wouldn't be that mad at someone if it wasn't true. What bothered me that most was that I didn't even know what she was saying.

I woke up the loud ringing of my cell phone. I groaned and answered it.
"Hello?" I asked sleepily.
"Look Vanessa. I know you have a crush on Joe and that is that it better stay. Joe is mine and if you even try taking him away from me you will regret it."
I gasped and looked at the caller I.D. It was private.
"Who is this?" I asked.
beep beep beep
I hung up the phone and sighed. Why did that voice sound so familiar?
Tell me what you think so far!
R&M!
