I was listening to my iPod as I was walking toward the Eiffel Tower ready for change to hit me. I was staring at it like I had been able to get a glimpse of heaven. I had been dreaming of coming here for years. I knew that someday I would've got my chance and I had received it. There's a cause as to why I'm actually here. It's not simply because it was one of my long term goals, but it was because I met a special someone. How about I just start from the beginning?
I live on the west side of Chicago. Not the suburbs, but the real deal. I've lived in Chicago all my life and it was a place that I was tired of seeing. I longed for a chance to get away.The main place I wanted to go was Paris, France. The Eiffel Tower was the place that I knew that I was going to visit one day, I just didn't know when.
There were three things about me that was interesting, and they were the only things that described me:
I dance.
I love music. It helps me escape from my reality.
Last, but definitely not least, I'm a total fangirl. Over who, you may ask? Oh.. none other than The Jonas Brothers. I've been in love with The Jonas Brothers and their music for 7 years. The moment I heard my sister and her friend listening to Year 3000, I wanted to know the name of the song and the artist. Then , 7 years later..
"Hey Kendra", my friends said as they walked up to me. I had met them last year when we came to Westinghouse for our freshman year. We're sophomores now.
"What's up?" I respond.
"How was your summer?" Asther asks.
"Fine. But like always nothing exciting happened. What 'bout yall?"
"Summer is summer. Shopping, moovies, dates, boys, money, dance..So yeah. That's 'bout it. Same ole, same ole." Nyla replies.
"Yeah, what she said." Asther adds with a chuckle.
Nyla and Asther had been best friends since grade school. So, they had a better bond than I had with either of them. I'm not going to lie, sometimes I feel left out. I was adopted, couldn't even get a new pair of shoes when I asked. I'm adopted by my grandmother. She adopted 6 of my mother's children. So it was hard to get what everybody else had and to stay up with the fashion trends.
Worse thing about being a female teenager? Having no love life. Asther and Nyla, both, had boyfriends. Plus, there were way lots of boys chasing after them, and waiting for the time that they would turn single. As for me, I had no one. Not a single person chasing after me. But, before you start feeling sorry for me, I actually did have a love life with Nick Jonas. Ever since I heard Nick's voice, it felt like it was meant for me to hear. But trust me, I am not obsessive. I just dream of meeting him and for us to click. If we don't, then we don't.
I was walking to my locker thinking about Nick, like always. Thinking about how many girls around the world that feel the same for Nick as I do.
My thoughts were interrupted by a notification on my phone. I checked it, and it was the Jonas Brothers app. Joe, Nick, and Kevin had made an announcement about a meet and greet. As soon as I saw the word Chicago, I screamed to the top of my lungs in the hallway. After I was finished fangirling, the bell rung and I snapped back into reality. People were looking at me funny, so, I turned, closed my locker, and walked to my next class. I felt all of the excitement building up inside. I couldn't wait for that moment.
In lunch, I told Nyla and Asther about the meet and greet.
"Aye guys guess what?" I asked them with excitement.
"What?"
"You know how I love the Jonas Brothers?" I asked trying to hold it all in.
Asther hesitated as she replied, "Yeah".
"Speaking of which, you need to drop them and get into rap and hip hop. All this pop and rock is getting on my last nerve. You're too old for that now." Nyla cuts in while taking a bit out of her sandwhich.
I give her an annoyed look , bu thse ignores it. "I don't care what anyone thinks about my taste in music. The Jonas Brothers are the best type of music. I cannot stand listening to even some seconds of rap because of the awful lyrics. I actually want music to mean something to me." I told her matter of factly.
"I guess. But you grew up around rap and hip hop. I don't see how you even got hooked on them." She replied.
"My sister, actually. And it doesn't matter how I grew up. But anyway, The Jonas Brothers are having a meet and greet."
"They're always having meet and greets. Where now? New York or LA?" Asther speaks up.
"Yeah they seem to not like Chicago that much. They never come here. Like seriously, Chicago isn't that bad." Nyla adds.
"Chicago IS bad, but only in some parts. But, the meet and greet is in Chicago!" I screamed to myself, because I knew they weren't as excited as I was.
"Aw, are you going?" Asther asks without care.
"OF COURSE! Why wouldn't I?" I whisper yell.
"Good point." Nyla replies.
Then, they went back to eating. I hated the fact that no one I knew were a fan of The Jonas Brothers. Sometimes I felt alone.
I sat in lunch with Nyla and Asther as they talked about boys and clothes, while I talked to myself about how amazing it was going to be to meet my three role models and the love of my life for the first time in 7 years. I was so excited. The meet and greet was on Thursday which was days away.
Thursday
All I heard was "That's Just The Way We Roll" by The Jonas Brothers. I was awaken by my alarm clock that I had set night before. I got out of the bed and went straight to the bathroom. In less than 30 minutes, I was ready to go meet Joe, Nick, and Kevin. I couldn't eat because I was so excited, so I went straight to the bus stop to be on my way.
When I got there, it was very crowed outside of the store. There were fans EVERYWHERE! I had literally thought there weren't any Jonas fans in Chicago, but I was so wrong. I waited in line, and it went so slow. I got chills when I saw Big Rob! I really wanted to hug him. The line had finally moved and I was a few steps closer to the best moment of my life. I braced myself as I took my steps and stood in front of Nick, Joe, and Kevin.
