Currently Untitled. Will most likely change in the later part (few chapters).

It’s not fair it’s not right,
Why can’t you let me live my own life.
I fall in and out of love so much,
It seems as if I can’t find a way.

Tell me,
Am I just a movie scene,
That you’ve seen a million times before,
Tell me,
Am I just the person you hated,
You wanted to tell me that before.

I’ll be fine right here on my own.
Can you tell me,
Why everything is not fine.
I’m sitting here wondering if what he said was true.

Tell me,
Am I just a movie scene,
That you’ve seen, a million times before.
Tell me,
Am I just the person you hated,
You wanted to tell me that before.

I think I can start over,
If it’s something I want to.
I think I can make a wish and
Count to ten and be over you.

I want to be the girl that you want.
I want to be the girl that feels special to you.
I’m still looking for the guy,
The very special guy,
The guy to take me away from everything.

So tell me,
Am I just the one movie scene,
The one you’ve seen a million times before.

I finish up the song in my notebook while making sure all my chords are right. Looks good, just as I put my guitar down and take a sip of my energy drink my phone goes off and I put it on speaker to answer.
“Hello?”
“Hey chicka. What is up?”
“Hey. Not much, just finishing up some lyrics. What about you? How’s Ellaville since I left?”
“Eh. Not bad, not bad. It’s boring here without you. I miss seeing you to brighten my day. When are you coming back to visit?”
“I don’t know, Beth. It’s hard to go back and see all the things again that I had to go through. Back to all the lies.” I look up and the door is opening. It might be Keith, my manager.
“But Jupiter, it’ll be different. They are all different. They think that everything that happened was for the good. They understand why you did it.”
“How could they understand when they were the reason? They didn’t care about me. I came out here and found a life. I can’t go back now. I love it too much out here.”

Flashback from 3 months ago:
“Jupiter don’t leave me. It’s sad that you think you have to go. Your mom can get custody of you, everything will be okay. Just stand up in front of the court and tell them you want your mom to have you not your dad.” Beth says with tears in her eyes.
“You know good and well why I have to go. You know why I have to say that I don’t want my mom. I’m never going to forget what she did to me. It was wrong. It tore me apart. I wish you would understand.” I tell her getting ready to leave.
“Jupiter, you heard her say that she won’t do it again. Please, I need you.”
“Beth, I’m sorry. I’ll come and visit you maybe, but I’m still going to LA. So I guess this is goodbye.” I tell her giving her a big hug.
“Bye.” She tells me with tears streaming down her face. “Take this, so you’ll always remember me.” I look down and see what’s in my hand. It’s a bracelet that says Beth Hearts You <3.
“Thanks Beth. I promise I won’t forget. I love you. I’ll talk to you really soon, you have my number.” I start walking away.

“JUPITER! Are you there?” Beth screams, snapping me out of my thoughts.
“Yeah. Flashback. Sorry. You still didn’t tell me what’s going on out there.”
“James said he misses you. Leslie and Malcolm got in a fight. Antonio said he was through with school and dropped out. That’s basically it. What about you?”
“Still being home schooled so nothing is interesting. I’ve been on the computer but mostly watching TV or music videos. Writing songs and practicing. Recording my songs so I can have a CD out soon. And now I’m waiting on my manager Keith to show up and tell me what he wanted.”
“You haven’t dyed your hair have you?”
“Thinking about it.”
“B- bu- but Jupiter, I love your hair. It’s such a pretty blonde. Please don’t dye it.”
“I was thinking about putting some purple or black or something on the bottom in streaks so it would show up.”
“Okay. Well I guess that’s cool. Hey I’ve got to go, Misty’s crying. Bye. I heart you. Don’t forget.”
“Bye. I heart you too. And no worries, check out Popstar! Coming out later this week, you’ll see I didn’t forget.”
“Alright.” Click.
I look up. There standing before me are three guys I have no clue who they are. One of them starts talking to me.
“What are you doing in our recording studio? We always have this one.” He has long hair but it kind of curls out at the end.
“Chill, I didn’t know that you owned the studio. I would leave but my manager told me to come here. He said he must talk to me and so you can have it when I’m done.” I tell him picking back up my guitar. Gosh, he sounded so mean.
“Hey, please don’t fight. I’m Kevin, this is Joe, and this shy one is Nick.” The guy named ‘Kevin’ said while holding out his hand. I lean up and shake it.
“Hey. My name is Jupiter.” I say looking back down at my guitar. I have to get the chords right for the song that Keith wants to be my big hit.
“So when is your manager coming?” Joe asks, looking kind of nice.
I glance down at me phone.
“Supposed to be coming right about now.” I say just as the door opens.
“Whoa! How did you do that?” Nick asks me shocked. That’s the first time he’s spoken.
“Lucky, I guess.”
“Jupiter, and Kevin, Nick, Joe?” Whoa? What the heck? I didn’t think you knew anyone from here Jupiter. What’s up?”
“Hey Keith, I didn’t. They came in and asked me what am I doing in THEIR studio. So yeah.”
“Okay well, you know how I told you both that I had you and someone else?” Keith asks me.
“Yeah.” We all say.
“Well, congratulations, you met each other.” We look at each other in shock.
“Now guys, sit down and Jupiter do you have to song Bonfire ready?” He turns to me.
“Yes sir.”
“Then get on in there and work your magic. This is going to be number one on your album and I’m hoping to be your number one hit.”
“Okay Keith.” I start walking toward the booth with my lucky guitar in tow.
I go into the room put on the headphones and sit down on the stool. Keith is standing out there working the switchboard thing. He nods and I start strumming.
Gather up the wood,
I’ll go and find the matches.
We’re going to make a fire,
Have a bonfire for our hearts.
We’re ready to start over,
To start fresh, to start new.
We’re going to have a bonfire,
We’re going to have one soon.

Gather up all your pictures.
Throw everything away.
Gather up all the memories you want to burn away.
The memories that he told you were okay.
Come on let’s go,
Let’s rock this world.

Gather up the wood,
I’ll go and find the matches.
We’re going to make a fire,
Have a bonfire for our hearts.
We’re ready to start over,
To start fresh, to start new.
We’re going to have a bonfire,
We’re going to have one soon.

Throw up your hands,
Laugh at the world.
They don’t understand why we’re doing this.
Let them laugh at us,
It’s not like we care.

I love the fact you think you can understand me,
I love the fact you think we’re doing this for you.
Oh no baby.
I’m having a bonfire today
A bonfire to take away the pain
So love me or hate me.
I’m not going anywhere.

I’m going to tell you this one more time

Gather up the wood,
I’ll go and find the matches.
We’re going to make a fire,
Have a bonfire for our hearts.
We’re ready to start over,
To start fresh, to start new.
We’re going to have a bonfire,
We’re going to have one soon

I said,
Gather up the wood,
I’ll go and find the matches.
We’re going to make a fire,
Have a bonfire tonight.

I finish strumming and walk out of the room. Keith is clapping while Nick, Kevin, and Joe just stare.
“Jupiter I really think that is going to be your number one hit. Have you thought of a video, you know to promote the album?” Keith asks me while I put my guitar back in the case.
“Yeah, a little.” I tell him.
“Great. Well why don’t we go to the conference room to talk about some things. Bring all of your stuff because we’re leaving after this, someone else has this room.” He starts walking out the door.
“Hey are you guys coming?” I grab my acoustic and put the strap on so I’m carrying it on my back while putting the other guitar strap on my shoulder. I guess I should explain a little, the electric is my lucky guitar and it’s in the plastic type bag. And so I can easily carry two guitars. Okay, well the guys are still standing there with their mouths hanging. I walk by them and pop each one up.
“Ow, don’t ever touch me. I don’t want you to touch me at all.” Joe says getting kinda angry.
“Okay, whatever. Why don’t we go now because Keith doesn’t like to wait.” I say walking out the door and getting in front of them. The conference room is on the other side of the place so it’s a pretty long walk. I take out some ear phones and my phone and start listening to Three Days Grace- Just Like You.

I could be mean
I could be angry
You know I could be just like you

I could be fake
I could be stupid
You know I could be just like you

You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you

I could be cold
I could be ruthless
You know I could be just like you

I could be weak
I could be senseless
You know I could be just like you

You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you

On my own, cause I can’t take liven with you
I’m alone, so I won’t turn out like you
Want me to

You thought you were standing beside me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you

You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you
You thought you were there to guide me
You were only in my way
You’re wrong if you think that I’ll be just like you

I could be mean
I could be angry
You know I could be just like you.

The song finishes just as I make it to the conference room. I walk in and Keith is looking over some papers.
“Ah, Jupiter. Where are the boys?”
“Don’t know, don’t care. I thought they were behind me.” I set both of my guitars down and take a seat next to him.
I hear screaming in the hall the guys come busting in.
“Sorry we’re late, someone just had to jump on our backs and make us fall over.” Kevin says sitting next to me. At least he’s nice to me. Joe and Nick sit on the other side.
“Okay well, you know how you’re manager even though you’re in two different bands?”
“Yeah.” We all say not sure where he’s going with this.
“Well, I have a tour planned. Starting next week and ending in 5 months. Here are some papers for your parents to fill out. Jupiter, it’s just your dad out here with you right?”
“Yes sir. My mom is not with me and I’m not going to see her back in Ellaville.”
“Why, did she realize you were a bad person?” Joe asks. Man this kid is bugging me and I don’t even know his age.
“No, I realized she was bad. It shouldn’t concern you anyway. You’re not obviously going to be a part of my life, yeah we’re going on tour but does that mean we have to get along 24/7?” I spit back.
“Um, I hate to break it to you, but you are both sharing a bus while the back up band shares another.”
“WHAT?!?!” Joe and I screech.
“Oh no.” I hear Kevin mutter.

5 hours later.

“So, you want to go on tour?” My dad Jay asks.
“Well, kinda. I really wanted to do this and moving out here really helped. The only downside is I don’t get along with Joe, but that could change.” I tell my dad while he’s looking over the papers. Since I’m only 16 I can’t do anything unless he signs.
“Alright. I’ll sign. I know you could be good at this. That would be why you did this in the first place. You have such a wonderful voice, I can’t wait to see you get famous.”
“As if I would get famous.” I tell him watching him sign some papers and signing my name underneath his.
“You never know sweetie, you never know.” He looks at me with a knowing smile.


Okay, to clear up some things. The Jonas Brothers have released one album but that was It’s About Time with Columbia. They are currently at Hollywood and that is where Jupiter has her record deal. I know I was really unclear about some things but you’ll learn more about Jupiter with the chapters to come.
Review please.

Peace,
Hayley.

Chapter Two.


“So dad, this is all I have to sign?” We had finished going over all the paperwork and it’s about 5:45. My twin Andrew had come through then went back up to his room. We’re identical twins and you can tell it. We both have blonde hair, blue/ green eyes. We’re about the same height and he weighs a little more but sshh… don’t tell anyone. It’s about 6 o’ clock at night and my dad thought it would be suck a wonderful idea to have the guys and their family over for dinner. It’s I guess a ‘can’t wait to hang out with you’ type of thing. Shoot I don’t even know. All I know is I was told to be ready by 6:30. So that leaves me thirty minutes to do something. I go up to my room and look through my drawers. I find an old shirt of my brothers. Actually, it’s his old baseball uniform, when he grew out of it, let me rephrase that when he got a new uniform I got to keep this one. I slip it on after stripping down and find some Hollister Jeans to wear. s48.photobucket.com/albums/f250/Halo_1021/Untitled%20Pictures/?action=view¤t=Jeanschapter2.jpg Then I look for a jacket to throw Andrew’s uniform. I look around in my drawers searching for the one I absolutely adore. I see a something white. I think that’s it. I quickly pull it out. Yup, it’s Preston’s jacket. Preston was a very, very good friend of mine and he wanted me to have his Abercrombie jacket, s48.photobucket.com/albums/f250/Halo_1021/Untitled%20Pictures/?action=view¤t=JacketPreston.jpg he told me whenever I got stuck and wanted inspiration the jacket would give it. Don’t know if he’s right but we’ll see.
It takes time,
to heal the wounds I’ve made along the way
If I'm blind
Open my eyes 'cause I need to see again
My phone starts to go off. Crap!. I search my room for it I’m not seeing it anywhere.
If I can feel again
Will you tell me now
Or wait til I'm broken down again
Save me now
I'm broken
It keeps ringing to let me know I’m getting closer. It sounds like it’s coming next door and that would be Andrew’s room.
If I bleed
My lies won't fill the emptiness inside
I just need
For something real to open up my mind

If I can feel again
Will you tell me now
Or wait til I'm broken down again
Save me now
I'm broken
I walk out of my room and go next door to Andrew’s room and walk on in. Sure enough he has my cell phone sitting on his bed. I hurry to answer it. I put it on speaker as always.(a/n the bold is the other person)
‘Hello?’
‘Jayden! What’s up?’ One person calls me that so that means it’s…
‘La Vaca. Not bad, not bad. I’m going on tour soon.’
‘You have got to be kidding me. You’re going without me?’
‘Sorry. Come to LA then maybe you can come with me. If it makes you feel any better Andrew isn’t coming either. I’m going to be stuck on a bus with 3 guys, isn’t that wonderful.’
‘Ah, who’s the band?’
‘I don’t know. The, what looks to be middle brother, is kind of mean.’
‘How so?’
‘He just gets under my skin.’
‘Aw. It will be okay.’ Andrew walks in and sees me sitting in his computer chair. He then decides to chunk a pillow at my head.
“ANDREW. WOULD YOU QUIT? I’M ON THE PHONE.”
“You’re just on the phone with Preston.”
Preston decides to jump in now.
‘Thanks dude. You’re awesome too.’
“Ha-ha. Sorry. Jay, dad wants you to come down.” “Alright, I’ll be there in a minute” Andrew walks back out of his room.
‘Agh! Preston baby.’
‘What do you want?’
‘You to come visit.’
‘Jayden, you know I can’t. I would love to, I just can’t. Try to get a concert close to here though. The Perry Fair is coming in like two weeks so maybe you can come and play at that. That would rock, to see my best friend up on stage.’
‘True.’ I start walking out the door heading downstairs to see what my dad wants.
‘So how’s LA.’
‘Why does everyone ask me that? I mean its okay. I like it pretty good out here.’
‘Ha-ha. Yeah.’ The doorbell rings and I hand my phone to Andrew. “Here. Talk to Preston I’ll be back”
‘HEY ANDREW!’ Wow. Those boys are crazy. I walk to the front door dreading it. I open the door and see the guys I met earlier and see 3 more people.
“Hey, Jupiter right? I’m Denise; this is Paul and little Frankie. I think you’ve already met Nick, Kevin, and Joe; am I right?” She pointed out everyone while I shake their hands.
“Yes mam. You can come on in” I lead them in the house and into the kitchen. You can hear Andrew talking on the phone.
NO ONE’S POINT OF VIEW
The Jonas family walks into the kitchen after Jupiter and is surprised at how big it is compared to the small family. They see a man cooking something up and a guy who looks just like Jupiter sitting on a stool in the middle of the kitchen.
“Dad, we have company.” Jupiter says while walking over to the brother and taking the phone and shooing him to where their dad is. He turns around and sees the Jonas’ standing there.
“Hello, I’m Jay (a/n I know I said his name was Andrew but I thought Andrew was such a better name for him so I’m calling him Jay) and this is my son Andrew.” He sticks out his hand same as Andrew.

Jupiter’s point of view.
I walk back over to the “guests” while trying to get Preston off the phone.
“And it was awesome. I was racing and I beat Luke, who was supposed to be the best one there.”
“That’s awesome. Hey La Vaca?”
“You have to go don’t you?”
“Yeah. Bye.”
“Hey, wait. Andrew said you were wearing my hoodie I gave you, are you really?”
“Yeah. It reminds me of you.”
“Sweet, bye Jayden.”
“Bye La Vaca.”

“Jupiter, was La Vaca that persons real name?” Kevin asks looking amused.
“No, it was Spanish.”
“What is it in Spanish?” Kevin looks very curious.
“The Cow.”
Denise looks shocked. “Oh my, Jupiter why did you call him cow? Is he that big?”
“No mam, he came up with a nickname for me so I decided to come up with one for him and I had just learned that word in Spanish and I called him that and he had no idea what it was and I had called him that for about a day and when he found out he just let me keep it.” I tell her while setting places on the table.
“Yeah, and Preston is a sweetie, or at least that is what Jupiter thinks. She adores Preston. She’s wearing his hoodie.”
“But I’m wearing your baseball shirt.” I lift the jacket up to show him.
“Ew, that old thing?” He looks disgusted.
“Andrew, think for a moment with me, when did you get your new jersey?”
“Beginning of this year.”
“Okay, now how long have you played baseball?”
“This is my second year.”
“So therefore, this is only one year old. Someone just shrunk it when they tried to wash it.” Everyone is standing there amused as to what is going on.
“You can tell they’re twins can’t you?” My dad asks.
“Oh yeah, I thought four boys was bad enough, you seem to have your hands way full with them two. Are there any more running around somewhere?” Denise asks as my dad motions to the table to sit down. I sit in one of the chairs on the far end of the table (the table is rectangular) and Andrew sits by me, Kevin on the other side. Then beside Kevin is Nick, then Frankie, and Paul. Then Joe sits on the other side of Andrew and Denise sits at the other end of the table. My dad brings the food over to the table. My dad is a wonderful cook. He went to cooking school, but alas he didn’t want to be a world famous cook, he wanted to work in a stuffy office from 8 to 6. Tonight we’re having steak with gravy, rice, mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and some rolls. The mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and rolls are all home made.
“Dad, I’m going to miss all of this cooking when we go on tour.” I tell him while he passes around the plates.
“Yeah, but you’ll come back and visit. I’ll cook all your favorites.” He tells me with a knowing smile.
“That’s great.” I say as I take some of the potatoes. After everyone has passed the plates my dad asks me if I’ll bless the food.
“Sure.” I grab hold of Andrew’s hand and reach out to Kevin. We hold hands same as everyone else.
“Let’s bow our heads.
Dear Lord,
I thank for this wonderful day and the fact you let people walk into my life. I know we’ll all be spending a lot of time together so I hope we get along great. I’m thankful to the fact you are allowing us to go on tour and I know you will be there to guide us along the way. I pray that the ones that are left here you will guide to because they are such wonderful people. I pray that you let us have another wonderful night and wake us up in the morning.
In Jesus’ name I pray,
Amen.”
Everyone says amen and we dig in.
“So, are you ready for the tour?” Paul asks me curiously.
“I haven’t even started packing yet. I figured I’d just get a big duffel bag and throw a bunch of clothes in it.” I tell him after I swallow the wonderful food.
“Ha! Like you would be able to fit all of your clothes in that duffel bag, you would need like for or five.”
Andrew spits out.
“Jupiter, if it makes you feel any better there is going to be a washer and dryer on the bus.” Denise tells me in a motherly way.
“Yay!” I scream while everyone laughs.
“And what are you going to do while Jupiter is on tour.” Paul asks the question directly at my dad.
“Hm, I’m not sure really. I think with just Andrew and me here, it should get interesting.” My dad says while thinking for a little.
“Yeah, that’s code for ‘they got to sleep in and won’t get up at about 9 in the morning.’”
“You get up at nine in the morning? You sure aren’t going to get Joe up.” Nick says while giving Joe a grin.
“I could do it, but I’m not going with you.” Frankie screams then looks so sad.
“But, I’m sure we’re going to be doing a lot of shows around here, giving us a chance to come home.”
Joe puts in. What is with this boy? He’s happy with his brothers and then when we’re all alone bam, he’s mean.
“Yeah, and there are always ways to wake you up.” I grinned.
“Name some.” He doesn’t waste a second.
I was about to answer but Andrew jumped in. I just let him answer and continued to eat my steak.
“Well, she can throw water; jump on you; play her music loudly; throw something at you, namely clothes; food; and much, much more.
“No way. You can not possibly do that.” Joe looks at me in total and complete disbelief.
“Yeah, I get Andrew up all the time like that, or set his phone where his alarm can get up.”
“How do you get up so early?” Nick asks me. The ‘kids’ are having a conversation of their own while the adults have one with Frankie.
“Used to go to public school and would wake up at like 5:30.” I tell them after I swallow my potatoes.
“How did you do that?” Kevin is appalled.
“I don’t know.” I just laugh.

One Week Later, Night Before The Tour.

“JUPITER! Hurry up, you need to go to bed, you’re going to have to wake up early.” I hear my dad screaming from downstairs. It’s not my fault that I decided that I needed more clothes, well I guess it was but I’ve still got to pack and make sure I have everything.
“Alright dad, I’ll be in bed after a little while.” I scream back down. I look at my clock, it’s only ten. I don’t know why he’s freaking out so much.
I go and look at my duffel and see if I have all my stuff. I have my charger, straightener, curling iron, lap top, all my cords, I have all my pairs of jeans, a ton of shirts, underwear and bras, my pads and tampons, belts, accessories, and more.
Alright, I think I have everything. I mean I am going on tour for like five months! We’re going to do our first show at The Perry Fair then work our way back. We would have worked our way over there but the fair ends in about a week so we’re driving for like 3 days, no other shows then go up and down the coast and work our way back like I’ve mentioned. It’s crazy but I mean I get to see Preston, Beth, and all those other folks. I called them yesterday when I found out. The Jonas Brothers, as they took to calling themselves, were watching me jump off the walls. It’s not my fault that I’m happy to see my friends I haven’t seen in about 3 months. I go turn off all my lights and turn my TV and go jump in my bed. I’m going to miss this bed so much. I turn to Disney and am surprised to see ‘The Jonas Brothers’ on there. It’s a video where they are in a house and it’s like the house is getting blown down. Wow. After it goes off The Suite Life Of Zach And Cody comes on and I lay down and start to watch it.
I wake up underneath someone. I look up and see blonde hair, go figure he jumps on me the one day he wakes up early.
“Andrew,” He looks at me with this sad face. “I love you to death but can you move like a little?” He scoots over just a tad, yes, I can breathe!
“Jupiter, do you really have to go on tour?” Andrew looks at me, he has tears in his eyes.
“Andrew, you know I have to. If I could I would take you with me. You know that. I’m going to miss you so much. I am going to call you everyday. You can text me anytime, even if it’s three in the morning okay?” I know I have to get ready but I can’t. I look at the clock and see that it’s 8. The bus is going to be here in like 15 minutes. Crap.
“Okay. I’ll think about that. I’ll call you everyday, I know you have to get ready and that’s why I woke you up, I’ll let you get ready.” Andrew gets up and walks out of my room.
I go to my closet and notice how bare it is without all of my clothes in there and grab my clothes I picked out last night. I slide off my pajamas and throw my clothes on. I go to my bath room; yeah I have my own bathroom. My house is kind of big but I didn’t care. I look at my reflection and throw my hair up in a messy bun. It shows off my jaw line, a lot. I put on a light make up and grab it to put in my duffel bag. I look around and see I have everything. I turn off the light for the last time and walk out of there. I throw my make up in my duffel and throw my duffel over my shoulder and walk out of my room. I have two but the other one is already down there. I see my dad and brother already downstairs getting my three guitars. I know they are going to be lonely but they won’t show it. I walk down the stairs and they look at me. They smile and tell me the bus is going to be here soon. I nod and walk all the way the stairs and give my dad a big hug.
“It’s going to be okay sweetie; I’m only just a phone call away.” I nod with tears running down my face. We hear a horn outside and know the bus is here. He picked up the boys first then came to get me. I still have my duffel and my dad picks up the other one. I take my lucky guitar and Andrew grabs the other two. We walk out of the house and I whisper bye to it one time before I come back.
“Jupiter, are you ready?” Keith asks me. He takes the two guitars and one duffel from my dad and Andrew and turns away to put them on the bus. I go and hug Andrew and my dad.
“I love you guys and I’ll miss you.” I tell them.
“I love you to and I’ll miss you.” They say in unison. I walk away and give them a wave bye. I know I have tears in my eyes as I walk to the bus. I get on and see Kevin and Nick sitting on one couch with Joe on the other.
“Hey.” I tell them.
“Hey, what do you want to do once we’re on the road?” Nick asks while playing with his phone.
“I don’t know. I want to go put my stuff up. Have you claimed bunks yet?”
“Yeah, you have top bunk on right side. Joe’s under you.” Kevin answers while turning back to the TV. America’s Next Top Model was on.
“Got it.” I walk away toward the bunk area. We had a tour of the bus yesterday. It’s really cool. The outside of the bus has The Jonas Brothers and Jupiter Ranea is written on the outside. It’s spacious.
I got to where my other things are and set everything up. Once I’m done I go to the back room with my guitar and a notebook. I really want to write a new song for Preston. He’s helped me the most and I love him. He helped me with everything more than Beth.

Forty five minutes later:
I look down at my notebook and see the song. I play it once all the way through to be sure I have everything.
Never Too Late lyrics

This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong
Who would have guessed it
I will not leave alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like it's not too late
It's never too late

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late

No one will ever see
This side reflected
And if there's something wrong
Who would have guessed it
And I have left alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like
It's not too late
It's never too late

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late

The world we knew
Won't come back
The time we've lost
Can't get back
The life we had
Won't be ours again

This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late (It's never too late)
It's not too late
It's never too late

“Jupiter,” I look up and Keith is standing there. “If I get those lyrics over to the back up band will you play that at the fair? I know it’s about Preston. I would love it if you did a speech there about what happened to you.” He looks at me understandably.
“Sure.” I nod. I know the back up band; I met last week and I liked them a lot. Since me and the guys are pretty much nobodies we’re using the same body guard. We have two different back up bands but we’re going to be spending a lot of time together.
“Alright. Nick is doing his speech a little later in the tour.”
“Nick?” I look at him questionably.
“He has type one diabetes. You didn’t know that?” He looks kind of shocked.
“No sir. I really didn’t. I’ll do this song at the fair right now I’m going over it some more. Maybe I can hang out on the other bus so we can practice it a lot so I’ll have it down?”
“You can do that when we get there. You will have plenty of time before the fair actually opens. You should know that because you used to live there. Why don’t you go in there and play it for the boys? You can see what they think of it.”
“I guess I can.”
I get off of the couch and go to the ‘living area’ of the bus and sit down on one of the couches. Kevin looks at me.
“Jupiter, we’re stopped, we had to get gas, can I take the lyrics now?” Keith asks me as he comes through. I know he’s staying on the bands bus.
“Sure. Tell them I’m going to play my guitar through this and not do a lot of dancing.” I tear out the page and hand it to Keith.
“Alright.” Keith gets off of the bus.
“What was that all about?” Nick looks curious.
“Oh you’ll see.” Is all I tell him.




It’s the day of the concert. I’m nervous as heck. The guys are up there performing and doing their thing. It is the last song and I know Preston is in the audience. Beth couldn’t come but I saw Preston earlier. The 3 days it took to get here was spent sleeping, eating, video games, and watching TV. The boys don’t know anything of what I’m going to do. They have no idea what is going on in my life, well what went on. I’ve texted Andrew all the time. The boys come off the stage and this guy comes on to announce me. Kevin, Nick, and Joe urge me to go on out there. I run my fingers through my hair. This lady straightened it. I have on a black dress over skinny white jeans and some black Converse.
I walk out to the stage.
“Hey everyone. What’s it like to be here?”
Screams.
“Well, I’m Jupiter and I was born in Warner Robins and moved to Ellaville. I know I came out of the blue and no experience but I hope you have a wonderful time.” More screams can be heard.
“My first song is called Bonfire and I really hope you like it.”
Gather up the wood,
I’ll go and find the matches.
We’re going to make a fire,
Have a bonfire for our hearts.
We’re ready to start over,
To start fresh, to start new.
We’re going to have a bonfire,
We’re going to have one soon.
After I finish that song, I hear screams. I do four more and the audience really seems to like me.
“Alright, I’m glad you really like me. This next song is called Never Too Late and I wrote it for me and one of my best friends. Preston, this is for you.” I see his face go white in the audience. I see Kevin, Nick, and Joe standing off to the side. I get my guitar and start strumming.

Never Too Late lyrics

This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong
Who would have guessed it
I will not leave alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like it's not too late
It's never too late

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late

No one will ever see
This side reflected
And if there's something wrong
Who would have guessed it
And I have left alone
Everything that I own
To make you feel like
It's not too late
It's never too late

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late

The world we knew
Won't come back
The time we've lost
Can't get back
The life we had
Won't be ours again

This world will never be
What I expected
And if I don't belong

Even if I say
It'll be alright
Still I hear you say
You want to end your life
Now and again we try
To just stay alive
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late
Maybe we'll turn it around
'Cause it's not too late
It's never too late (It's never too late)
It's not too late
It's never too late
“Alright, well.” I hand my guitar off to Taylor. “How many of you have gone through a really tough time?” Almost all the audience raises their hand. I raise mine too. I see Kevin, Nick, and Joe looking really confused. “Back about a year ago I was going through a really tough time. My mom wasn’t the best mom in the world. She would tell me she loved me then every night would beat me black and blue. I would have bruises all over my body. The worst scar I have is on my arm. I used to think I’m never going to be good enough. I felt I was too fat and that’s the reason she hit me, I thought I didn’t get good grades and that’s why she hit me. I thought all these things. I decided that since I couldn’t do anything about her hitting me I would do something about my weight. I wasn’t fat, nor was I 100 pounds.” I pause to take a breath and see the audience is just standing there, some sitting. “So, I went anorexic. I have a brother named Andrew, but I wouldn’t listen to anything he said. He had baseball. My dad would work late or be at college so no one knew my mom beat me. I thought I covered everything up. Preston came over one day and he was complaining about his life. Well, I thought right then since I had given up being anorexic because I lost too much weight, that why don’t we kill ourselves? We had it all planned out and had our notes written explaining everything, we were going to do it when Andrew was at baseball, my dad was at college, and my mom was out shopping. Then my dad came home early. We had to put it off. We were going to meet up the next day and just do it. We hid the guns and he went home. The next day as we got ready Andrew came home. We kept on having to put it off and put it off. The only thing Preston knew was that I just wasn’t having fun and I just wanted to end my life. Then the day when we knew no one was coming early he caught me putting on a tank top and I was bending over. I wasn’t expecting him till later so I didn’t care if my shirt came up. I knew there were a lot of scars on my back and bruises.” I see Preston and he moves closer to the stage. “He was my guardian angel that day. I had decided even if someone came home early I was going to do it. I didn’t care. Now that I look back at it, I realize that God put everyone in my life to save me. My parents are now divorced after my dad found out. I’m currently on tour as you know and when I’m not I’m living in LA. That day changed my life and I never will know nor understand why my mom beat me like she did. I still have nightmares even though I went to see a counselor.” I stop to take a sip of water. “Many of you are probably wondering, ‘What happened to Preston?’ He’s still alive too. We treasure that moment with everything and he will always be my best friend.”
I see someone raise their hand in the audience and it’s Preston. “Yes?” I ask.
“What did you do after he found out?”
“We both looked at each other and knew something was up so I broke down and told him. He understood.”
The audience starts clapping and some have tears. What can I say I have tears too.
“I hope you have a wonderful time the rest of the day at the fair and I hope to see you at the meet and greet.” I exit the stage and feel someone jump up and follow me. I look around and it’s Preston.

Review please.

Peace,
Hayley.

Chapter Three.


“Preston!” I ran up and gave him a big hug completely aware of Kevin, Joe, and Nick standing there still amazed at what I admitted. “It’s so great to see you. Man I missed you so much.” There are tears running down my face. I step back to see if Preston has changed any. He’s about my height, 5’4”, still has the brown hair and flawless face.
“Jayden, I’ve missed you more.” Preston looks at me and I notice there are tears in his eyes too. We both remember that day and remember how he pretty much saved my life.
“Come here, I want you to meet three guys.” I take his hand and lead them over to the guys.
“This is Kevin, he’s twenty. Joe, he’s eighteen. And Nick is fifteen.” I point to all the boys while I tell Preston who they are.
“Hey, what’s up? I’m Preston.” He tells them as he puts out his other hand for them to shake. The guys all shake it. Yes, Joe and I are getting along better, I guess if you’re stuck on a bus for three days you have to learn to be nice to one another.
“Jupiter, I just wanted to say I’m sorry for anything I said before. It was mean of me to say. I didn’t know anything about you, I guess I was kinda mad because it’s unusual for a manager to have two bands at once and we had just found out that he did.” Joe says while coming over.
“It’s fine Joe, I would have acted like that except I knew when Hollywood signed me.” I respond giving him a hug.
“Come on people, we have to get ready for the meet and greet.” Kevin says about to walk away.
“Oh yeah, I almost forgot about that. Come on let’s go.” I say as I go back over to Preston and grab his hand to lead him to the dressing room.
I see Nick and Kevin in front of us and Joe’s tagging along after us. We get to the dressing room and Preston, Nick, and Kevin have to use the bathroom. They go off in search of it because it’s their first time backstage. That leaves me with Joe.
“Joe, what’s wrong?” I notice he’s being really quiet, so unlike him. I walk over to the fridge and grab an Amp energy drink.
“It’s just; you didn’t let anything I said bother you. Did you even realize anything I said that was totally mean? I mean, I realize what I said was totally mean and you didn’t get mad at me or anything. What’s going on?” Joe asks me very confused. I look at the clock, ten minutes till meet and greet. I go over and sit on the couch with Joe.
“I’ve learned to just push past people who try to stand in my way. I figured that if you had something bothering you that would be why you’re being mean to me. I don’t judge people like that. I know you’re shocked to what I admitted. It was a dark time in my life. I didn’t like myself and I didn’t want anyone to be around me. I pushed everyone out except Preston. When I finally got the courage to tell my dad about my mom beating me Preston was by my side. The bad part was I was at the hospital. I had lost too much weight and I checked myself in to make sure everything was okay. It’s not your fault to the fact that you had just learned Keith was managing two different musical groups. He told me of your background and we came from complete and total opposites, the thing is we are going to be so close it’s going to be weird when we ever get off of this tour.” I take a deep breath and wait to see Joe’s reaction.
“So, Preston is like your brother?”
“Well, to me, he’s more than a brother. Family, you just sometimes want to get angry at and wish they were never yours. Preston, I’ve never gotten mad at.” I know that’s the truth. I never have gotten mad at Preston.
“If you were going through such a hard time, who pulled you out?” I know that was probably the question that was eating at Joe the most.
“God. He had been there all my life, I just refused to turn to him.” I looked at the wall above this window. “When we were planning on committing suicide everybody just showed up at the wrong time. I now know that He sent everybody; I guess you could say to be guardian angels. Before I realized that God was the person who helped me the most, I had turned my back on him. I had a long talk with my dad and my parents got divorced. My grandparents on my mom’s side still can’t believe that she did that. She was the perfect daughter. I was lying straight to the judge. She deserved me, not my stupid dad.” I mimicked my grandparents, and then gave an irritable look. Joe just laughed.
“How about we put everything behind us and start off I guess you could say brand new. I know we got off to a really bad start and I really want us to be friends.” I tell him hoping he’ll say yes.
“Sure thing buddy.” He grins as we do a little handshake type thing. He looks at the clock. “It looks like it’s time to go. Let me help you get out there.” I’m confused as heck to what he’s going to do. Next thing I know I’m being hauled off the couch and am seeing Joe’s green shirt, great.
We go out into the hall and go into the room where the meet and greet is, at least I hope that’s where we’re headed. Joe puts me back down on the ground and I turn around. Kevin, Nick, and Preston are standing there with their mouths hanging open.
“If you stand there long enough flies are going to go into your mouth.” I tell them going to my chair to sit down and wait for the security to let people in.
“But, wait, and, you and him, and what?!?!” Nick look flabbergasted. (A/n I just love that word. It sounds totally awesome. Yeah!.)
“We made up, we’re friends now.” I tell him while Joe goes and leans against the wall.
“You are so weird.” Preston says regaining his composure.
“You must me totally and completely out of your mind. Wasn’t it you who drew a penguin on the table in Biology and everyday we came to class you would scream ‘SCAMPER’S STILL HERE!’?” I laugh. Kevin, Joe, and Nick give me and him a strange look.
“Hey, Scamper’s cool. Don’t be dissing on Scamper. Oh look kids.” Preston says as he turns and looks at kids coming in. We all turn. Kids are filing in. Well, I say kids; there were teens, adults, young looking kids, older kids. Basically a lot of people; all different ages.
“Show time, guys.” I say as I walk toward the tables. I grab a sharpie to sign. There are a lot of people coming up. I smile.
“Hey, did you enjoy the show?” I ask to some teenage girls. They hand me some posters to sign. It has ‘THE PERRY FAIR’ in big letter then a picture of a Ferris wheel, then it has ‘TONIGHT FEATURING: The Jonas Brothers and Jupiter Ranea.’ And a picture of me and the guys taken before we left.
I sign my name while the girls go to talk to me. There are three there.
“It was really good. I enjoyed the music a lot and the confession you made, wow. That is really going to make you into a role model. I know some people would just be like, I wouldn’t look up to that, but I mean you’re standing here and you’ve grown up in a small town.” The one with blonde hair says. She has fair skin but a few breakouts up on her forehead. She is pretty skinny.
“Thanks,” I tell her handing her back the poster while another one hands me one.
“Yeah, I can’t believe how awesome it was. My mom told me that she got me tickets to see
Ya’ll and I was like who the heck? Then once I saw you I’m like ‘Oh, it’s Jupiter.’ You don’t remember me do you?” I look up and see a tall brunette. She has a flawless face. Freckles, braces, and she is tan.
“Can’t say that I do, did you go to Schley?”
“Yeah, we just kinda ran in different circles.” I smile and nod. The next girl hands me a poster. I sign my name and wait for her to say something. I realize she’s not paying attention though.
“Who is that standing back there?” She asked. She’s shorter than the other two and looks to have Mexican in her. She has jet black hair. I turn around.
“That’s my best friend.”
“Really, so is that, The Preston?”
“Yeah.”
“Alright, well we’ve got to go.”
“Bye, hope to see you again.” I tell them and wave as they walk away.
And for the next two hours, it was just like that; okay, well maybe not two hours but it was about an hour later. Everyone said that my speech was awesome and they really liked the music. I actually ran into some prissy girls from Schley. I didn’t like them very much but they thought that the guys were so cute and adorable and hot.








Yeah, that was my reaction.

Anyway, after Big Rob came and told us we were free to go, we weren’t leaving till tomorrow we were overjoyed. Preston was back there talking to some crew person probably about guitars. It’s about six o’clock and I know that more and more people would be coming since it’s getting later. I look at my phone, it’s Friday. Definitely more people are going to be coming and it’s going to be couples galore. We can do anything.
“Hey guys.” I start.
“Hm?” All three look at me.
“What do you want to do? Since its Friday there are going to be a lot of people coming in. The fair is going to be really busy.” I tell them.
“Hm, I don’t know.” Kevin says.
If weakness is a wound
That no one wants to speak of
Then “cool” is just how far we have to fall
I am not immune
I only want to be loved
But I feel safe behind the firewall
Can I lose my need to impress?
If you want the truth, I need to confess
My cell starts to go off and I quickly answer it.
“Hello?”
“Jupiter darling, There are some more dates added for the tour. Be sure to tell the guys. You were wonderful on stage tonight. Anyway, the tour dates are hitting the schools. Can you put it on speaker?”
“Sure.” I click the button and easily put the phone on speaker. ‘You’re on.”
“Hey guys. So, I’ve already talked to Jupiter but, you are hitting the schools. Your old schools. We’re going to get you a hotel in Americus then drive to Ellaville cause it’s closer. Then we’re driving to New Jersey and we’re staying at your house. Sound good to you?”
“Yeah!” We all scream at once. This is going to be great.
“Okay. Well we’ll be pulling up into your old school Jupiter tonight just to get everything out. Some janitor is going to be there and we can store the stuff in a lock room till tomorrow. The assembly is for grades sixth through twelfth. I think it’s like at one.” He says. I know he obviously doesn’t have his book thing out because there is no way it will start at one.
“Keith, don’t you mean two?”
“I guess so. Why would I mean two though and not one?” He asks me.
“Because they have a second lunch at one and all the assemblies are normally at two.” I tell him remembering the school and the assemblies.
“Alright, well we have to leave at eleven because the janitor had something to do until about one. Have fun!” Keith says.
“Alright, bye.” We all say. I close my phone and look around at them.
“So, what are we going to do?”
“Well, I don’t know about you, but I’m getting some food. FOOD YEAH!” Joe screams while running out the door.
“Joe, wait!” Too late. Joe runs and didn’t realize there was a door there I guess and runs into it. He falls to the ground.
“I’m okay, I’m okay.” Joe says as he gets up, while Kevin, Nick, Preston, and I were laughing our heads off.
“Hey Joe, do you want a tip?” I ask him in between bits of laughter.
“What?” He looks curious.
“There” Laughs. “Is.” Laughs. “A.” Laughs. “Door.” Laughs. “There.” I couldn’t say it without laughing.
“Oh, shut up, I’m aware of that now. I was just doing it for you guys.” He tries to look tough.
“Yeah right. Let’s go, we’ll get Joey some food.” I tell him as I walk back to the rooms so we can change. I see Preston still talking.
“Yo Preston! Are you coming?” I ask him while Nick, Kevin, and Joe go on up ahead.
“Yeah. I’ll be there in a minute. The back room right?” He asks me.
“Yeah, be early though. We have to leave at eleven.” I walk toward the back room. I open the door and Nick and Joe have their shirts off. Whoa, talk about toned. Them boys look sweet!.
“Jupiter, I know we’re ripped, you don’t have to drool.” Nick says while laughing.
“Yeah, you better get used to it, we’re going to be seeing a lot of people half naked between changing for shows and all.” Kevin says. Joe just stands there.

-30 minutes later-
“Woah! That ride was sick!.” Joe screams.
“I know. I love the bumper cars.” I say sarcastically while rolling my eyes.
“Now on to food to shut someone up.” Everyone looks at Joe. Preston and I lead them over to a section of the fair that has fair food everywhere. “Pick anything you want. I think they have everything here. I remember this so much.” I spin around in a circle while everyone stares at me. “What? I haven’t been here since last October.”
“Yeah, and being away still hasn’t solved anything.” Preston says.
“So you think you know me?” I get all up in his face. We’ve done this so many times.
“Yeah, I do know you. Now it’s time to settle this.”

-No one’s point of view-
“Let’s do it.” Jupiter says. All of a sudden you see Preston and Jupiter going around in a circle staring each other down. They make it about 5 times then Preston busts out laughing. They just stop there.
“Okay, I’m going to get food now.” Kevin says while watching Joe go back and forth past all the stands looking for food that he wants.
“Whatever.” They say still staring at each other. Kevin leaves and it’s only Nick left with them, and he’s watching them to see what’s going to happen. Preston is now standing still and Jupiter starts walking.
“Hey Preston.” No response. “We just got the greatest news.” None. “We’re coming to play at Schley. Isn’t that great?”
“Oh my gosh! Are you flipping kidding me? That’s so awesome. CRAP. I hate you.” Preston says, obviously they were doing something to where they weren’t talking. It just shows how crazy they are.

||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

12:00 that night, Jupiter’s point of view.
The fair was awesome. I was happy I got to see Preston and I can’t wait for the concert tomorrow. We pull up to my old school and the two buses get parked.
“Are you sure the two buses can fit?” Nick asks worriedly. “There isn’t a lot of room and they are big.”
“Dude, when we went to D.C. we had 3 buses about this size parked here. No biggie. Chill out.” We walked off the bus completely aware we’re in our pajamas. I have on some light blue pants with white moon and stars on them. They have faded because I had them for so long and two spaghetti strapped tank tops one in black and one white. Joe, Kevin, and Nick are wearing some Hanes t-shirts and striped bottoms. I have on my furry boots because it’s October and I’m fully aware of how cold it gets I also have a jacket on. We’re waiting for Mr. Andrews to come and unlock the school.
“Why is it so cold? I thought being in south Georgia it would not be this cold.” Joe whines.
“Goodness boy, man up. It gets colder than this for winter. It doesn’t get as cold as New Jersey did but it does get pretty cold. We’ve had snow, I think twice that I can remember, the last time it snowed Andrew and I built a snowman. It was so small but we didn’t have much snow to work with.” I tell them just as a beat up pick up pulls into the parking lot. A black man who is skinny with a slight limp is walking towards us. The other guys get out, including Keith, as we start to get our stuff.
“Jupiter, is that really you?” I turn around while carrying two guitars and an amp.
“Yeah Mr. Andrews, it is.” The move to L.A. had done something to me. It made me I don’t know I guess stronger, the kind you can see on the outside as well as the inside.
“Wow girl, you’ve grown, you’re not the same little thirteen year old wandering the school looking so hopelessly lost looking for the band room.” He laughs, and in the process he makes me laugh too.
“Yeah, I remember that. Mr. Frontz had left me and I had to walk over from the elementary school late. It was so weird.” I replied as I laughed at the memory.
“Jupiter, you’re going to be amazed at how the school looks, your friends love you. Now let’s go in.” I’m so confused and so Mr. Andrews unlocks the school door and holds it while all of us trudge in loaded down. I look around in a shocked state. There are banners, balloons, streamers, signs, confetti, all the works.
“Woah. This is awesome!!!!!” I scream.
“They’re not finished yet, they have big plans. Big plans indeed.”

[hayleyheartsyou]

Chapter Four.

“Oh my gosh. This is still so unreal.” I say collapsing on a bed.
“What’s unreal?” Nick asks as he plops down on the bed beside me.
“This,” I look around. “Who knew my life would have changed so much and the fact they send us out alone, all different ages, and the fact is not a lot of people know who we are.”
“Hey, just think, we’ll be playing at your school tomorrow or later today if you want to be precise.” Kevin says coming out of the bathroom.
“Yeah, that’s going to be awesome I guess.”
“Not much enthusiasm with you.” Joe says running and jumping on the other bed.
“Well, I’m excited about seeing my friends and you can tell they’re excited as well, but I just don’t know.”
“You were popular weren’t you?” Kevin asks. “We saw the decorations, there’s no way two or three people could pull that off.”
“Yeah,” I lay back on the bed, “I’m not popular though.”
“There’s no possible freaking way two or three people could pull that off.” Joe says looking at me in disbelief while he was scrolling through the channels on TV.
“Well, my guess is Liz, Kameron, Parker, Alexis, Beth, Reyna, Blake, Storm, Eric, KayLynne, and Preston did it.”
“And you’re not popular?” Kevin looks amazed at I guess the people I named.
“No, the weird thing is I used to be popular. Back in elementary and middle school I did, then I guess we grew up and they changed and didn’t like how I shopped at different stores and didn’t go to the ways they thought fit. They thought that when I was involved in band and music that I was a total and complete geek face.”
“But, you’re so pretty now, you have a flawless face, beautiful blonde hair, gorgeous eyes, why would they think that of you?” Kevin looks shocked.
“Thanks, but I was smart, I got good grades and they didn’t understand it. I read and did all my homework, I had braces and couldn’t afford to shop at the expensive stores they could.”
“So what happened?” Nick asks.
“I just told them to leave me. I met everyone my sixth grade year when I changed classes. No big deal I guess, so what about you guys?”
“Well, we were homeschooled when our music took off. Eastern Christian was a wonderful school though. I really miss it. We’re really devoted Christians and wear purity rings. We have made one album called It’s About Time with Columbia. Then it wasn’t working out for us because they weren’t trying to sell the album so they dropped us. Then we joined Hollywood. We have a self titled album coming out later in the year. I think Keith is hoping that you will have your album ready to debut and do a release party together.”
“Woah, a lot of changes for you; I think that is Keith’s plan too, even if he won’t admit it. I don’t even have an album name.”
“You could always be like us and do a self titled album.” Joe says as he lands on Disney channel.
I think a minute. “I think I may call it Never Too Late.”
“For Preston?” They all ask.
“For Preston.” I confirm.

NeverTooLateNeverTooLateNeverTooLateNeverTooLateNeverTooLate

We pull up to the school after waking up at 11 and rushing to get ready. I called shower first and got in and out. Kevin then Nick went because they claim Joe would take longest. I dried my hair and straightened it. No hair dressers and make up artists for schools. We had to decide on sleeping arrangements for the night and I got paired with Nick because Keith thought it would be a lovely idea to give us one room with two beds, so we had to share. Does Keith not think? I mean seriously, one room; two beds; three guys; one girl. Hello, girl has to sleep with a guy! Woah, that sounded, gross? Quit thinking like that, we did nothing. They paired me with Nick because Joe moves around in his sleep and Kevin can take a hit, HA!
Anyway, we pull up to the school at about 12 ready to go. We walked into the school and there were even more decorations. You walked in and there was a red carpet from the door to the gym doors and looked to be going across the gym. We had to go sign in and get our name tags. Joe, Kevin, and Nick looked at me weirdly watching me fill it out.
“Just fill it out and I’ll explain later.” I put my name and the time and where I’m going. When I was finished this is what it looked liked:
Name: Jupiter. Time in/out: 1:35- I don’t know, ask me later.
Location: I came here to rock, now you tell me where I’m going.
We walk out of the office and down the hall to the lunchroom to get food. Everyone is looking at us curiously and I know half is because they recognize me and the other half is that they don’t know the boys. They were rushing to their classes because they didn’t want to be late so no one stopped us and asked us any questions.
“Care to explain the nametags?” Joe asks.
“Look at the ceilings, all around. What do you see?” We’re still walking down the hall avoiding getting run over by a few people who are running late.
“Black things.”
“Yeah, this school is into security and such so this is adding to the security.”
“The black things are…?”
“Cameras, the image is directed into the principal’s or vice’s office, can’t remember which.” We make it to the lunchroom and I look to see what the menu is. Ugh, nachos or corn dog. “Go for the nachos, their hot dogs have never tasted right.”
“Thanks…” All three of them answer. I walk in front of them and into the line closest to me. There are two lines at my school, the “main food line” and the “fast food line” the main line always has both. The lunch lady comes up and sees me and the guys.
“You’re the ones who are playing correct?” She’s a new lady, young, and blonde.
“Yes mam. Can I get nachos; I’m not a big corn dog fan.”
“Sure, what do you guys want?” She looks beyond me to Kevin, Nick, and Joe standing there.
“Well, I’ll have nachos.” Kevin says. “I’ll have nachos too.” Nick says. “I’ll have a corn dog.” Joe says.
She goes off to fix our plates because she moved all the food from the front to the back and I take the time to turn around and look at Joe.
“What? I eat a lot of different food. My stomach is tough!”
“Yeah, well the corn dog is okay, I guess.”
“Whatever. I’ll show you I can eat it.”
“Here’s your food. Go to the middle and tell the lady if you want milk.” We take out food and go to where the two lines would meet. There is an older lady with graying hair standing there.
“Hey Mrs. Eva,” I tell her to let her know we’re here.
She turns around “Hey darling. Who are these lovely young men?”
“This is Kevin, he’s the oldest.” I push Kevin in front of my small frame. He shakes her hand.
“This is Joe, he’s the middle child.” I push him in front of Kevin and he also shakes her hand.
“And this is Nick, he’s the youngest.” Same as I did before I pushed Nick in front of both of them and he shakes her hand.
“So what do you guys want to drink? Some guy named Keith already paid for your meals.” She says pulling out a crate.
“Thanks Mrs. Eva. I’ll talk to you later, are you going to see us perform?” I ask as I grab a white milk.
“I don’t know darling, I might.” She tells me as each of the guys grab a chocolate milk.
“Thanks so much.” I tell her.
“No problem, go eat before you have to go. All of the silverware and such is in the same place.”
We walk out and to a round table. I go and grab some napkins and hear the lunchroom door open, I don’t pay any attention though because lots of teachers send students to get ice and water.
Joe, Kevin, Nick, and I are watching Joe look at the corn dog about to take a bite. Suddenly I hear a scream. I turn around cautiously. I don’t get a chance to see who it is because someone is hugging my waist, really hard.
“Um, I would hug you back I just need to know who you are.” I tell her after about 30 seconds of her hugging me.
She pulls away. “Lindsey?”
“Yeah, you don’t recognize me?” She looks… different. She used to be this laid back girl who just wore jeans and a tee. This little girl that stands before me looks so much different. She has on more make up than me and she has on a skirt, with a low cut pink shirt. She lost some weight I can tell, she’s not as big as she used to be.
“It’s just a shock, I can’t believe it’s you. Are you and Kameron getting along any better?” I ask her. Kameron’s my friend and Lindsey is her little sister. Lindsey is around 13 now. A brat.
“No, I can’t wait for the concert. I have to go now, Mrs. Woods wanted me to get ice.” She gives me another hug.
“Alright, I’ll see you later.” She walks toward the kitchen.

Alright.
I'm taking a hiatus from this fanfic for a while.
I can not think of anything else to add to it. I'm braindead.
If you would like to write a chapter or two/ take over, be my guest. Send me a message and I'll tell you where I kinda wanted it to go.

--Hayley.

even though you are taking a hiatus, I really loved the story Hayley. Question though, where did you come up with the name Jupiter?

Honestly I don't know.
Half the time whatever comes to my mind I use. Normally the people in my stories aren't real people. Or, I base them off of someone in my life.
