Vacation Eyes ~ A Joe Jonas Fanfiction

Chapter Twelve: Summer in the Hamptons

And so, I agreed. I agreed to secretly date Joe Jonas after he announces his divorce to the entire world. Right now, I am a single woman and I am living for it.

    A month has passed since that cruise and now I am in New York, staying in Tessa's New York house in the Hamptons. Tessa can only afford this because her family is rich and always encouraged her to follow her passions, whether it be to travel or to ink people for a living. I didn't have that form of a safety net.

    "I just paid for the floor seats!" Tessa said. "This concert is going to be so much fun, I tell ya!"

    Fun. Sure it will be. Concerts are always fun... for Tessa. I was never a huge enjoyer of concerts. Joe Jonas and I keep in touch as if we're friends even though I know damn well that I am only doing this so he could repair his reputation after the divorce. Tessa knows nothing of the sort.

    "You've been on your phone so much during this trip, Jess!" Tessa replied. "You need to explore more!"

    We've been exploring the whole entire vacation. From Broadway shows in New York city to a cruise where I formally meet the Jonas brothers, the first half of this summer has been a doozy and I just need a break from it all.

    "Your birthday is tomorrow, Jess," Tessa said. "You'll have to explore more tomorrow!"

    Tessa nodded and then left the vacation house, to go to the beach right by it. I sat in the house reading my books and laughing at the stupid things that are said in the book.

    After Tessa got back from her beach trip, she smiled and then laid on the couch, relaxing from her trip. She then starts laughing as she pulls out her phone and started texting.

    "Who are you texting?" I asked her. "Joe Jonas?"

    That remark made her laugh. She shook her head and then started giggling at her phone.

    "No." Tessa answered. "There is a hot lifeguard that was at the beach and I got his number!"

    Another week passes by and we are still in the Hamptons. I am pretty sure that this is the last destination before we go back to New York city before the concert. As I lay myself down for bed, I get a phone call causing my phone to vibrate.

    I grabbed my phone off the nightstand and I saw that Joe Jonas was calling me. At midnight? What could he be doing at midnight? I sighed, answering the call.

    "Hello?" I asked him.

    "Hey baby!" He replied.

    "You're still a married man, mister!" I responded. "We can start this whole thing once you're openly divorced!"

    He sighed and then scoffed at me. I put my phone on at night and this time, I placed it on speaker.

    "But if we act like we're together now, then it won't be as awkward as when we fake it," He said. "And technically, I gave the papers to Nick."

    I rolled my eyes and then stood up to stretch myself. He chuckled while he heard my bones pop.

    "Stiff back?" Joe asked.

    "None of your business," I responded. "But yes, I have a stiff back."

    I wonder, how does he get a divorce with his wife if they already have kids? I feel for the kids.

    Another week passed and I am sitting on the beach, tanning myself with this tan thing Tessa brought. I don't know the names of these things, I just know that she has all these fancy things and I never cared to learn about them.

    "Two more weeks!" Tessa squealed. "We're going to see the concert in two weeks!"

    I chuckled and then went back to tanning myself while she was talking to the lifeguard. Apparently, they're a thing now. I'm honestly so happy for her, watching her life unfold, despite the Jonas hiccup that started the summer.

    Another week went by and we were packing our bags, getting ready to leave the vacation house her parents owned. I still have one more question about this whole vacation, how was she able to afford it all? I get her parents are rich and that's probably why, but I still wondered if she paid for it herself at all.

    "Are you excited to go back to New York City?" Tessa asked, putting the last thing into her suitcase.

    I am honestly excited to go anywhere with Joe Jonas. I nodded at Tessa and then she started to sigh, while she walked out to the Uber she called.

    "To the airport, please." I told the Uber driver as I got into the car after shoving my suitcase into the trunk.
