Reality Check

1. In La La Land...or So I Thought...

This is the first chapter of the first story in the LTD series. This is really how it all started for little diabetic me...I had a dream...I wrote it down, next thing you know I'm writing stories over at JBFAA. If you want to read more, please go to http://jonasbrothersfanfictionarchive.com/viewstory.php?sid=24956 for now while I work on transferring everything over here to wattpad :) Thank you!

OMJ, come here and sit down! I just had the greatest dream ever...or so I thought, but I HAVE to tell you about it!

I mean it wasn't as funny or awkward or even embarrassing as some of the dreams I've recorded in my dream journal and told you about but it sure was crazy...OK, OK, I'm gonna cut right to it and tell you about what happened.

I was on stage inside a huge arena. Spotlight hitting me just right, fan blowing right through my rock star hair, oh yeah............anyway sorry back to what I was saying.

I was performing with my "Brothers of Jonas" as you know, that's what I like to call them :D and it was amazing! I played my guitar (like my own Ibanez ...my own guitar guest-starred in my dream!) and it was so much fun!

We were playing "That's Just The Way We Roll". I got to sing the first verse and we were rocking out for sure!

I felt all rockstar-ish. "Thank you so much for having me! I love you all! Good night!" I screamed into the microphone, completely out of breath. The crowd was cheering and everyone on and off stage was smiling at me.

Kevin, Joe, and Nick said their goodbyes, as well and the stage lowered us back into the ground. There were hugs all around and everyone told me how proud they were of me and I thanked them all for the opportunity to perform with them.

I saw Papa Jonas walk towards me with a huge smile and he was just about to hug me when...

Me: *thinking* "Huh? What? Oh..maaann....just a dream.....arghhh!!! stupid alarm clock! Seriously! If I got a dollar for every time my alarm has ripped me out of the coolest dreams EVER, I'd be rich and probably own about 23 guitars, two pianos and four drum sets. I'm not even kidding."

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP

*Takes deep breath, finally turns off alarm and peeks at the clock* 8:30AM.

"OK, that's not too bad." I slowly got up and smiled while gathering all my clothes for the day as I relived my previous dream in my head, writing a mental sticky note to myself to remember to write it down in my journal later.

Me: *thinking* "I love my dreams. They always seem so real. I kinda wish they were sometimes. OK, a LOT of times! Whoa! I could have sworn I had my guitar resting against my wall over there...grrr if one of my brothers took it again without asking I'm gonna...do something to them...I'm soo sure it was Tyler. He thinks because we're twins everything I own is his. Interestingly this rule does not seem to be applicable when it comes to his possessions. Go figure....oh there's my blue shirt aaannnddd my Nintendo DS. YES!"

I opened up my bedroom door balancing my outfit for the day, my phone, and my DS in my arms.

You know what's cool? I don't even have to really look up when navigating through my house, I'm just that talented. Nah it's just that 1) my bathroom is right next to my room...man I wish they were directly connected. This way I wouldn't have to step into the hallway and then enter through the next door over and 2) I am usually glued to my phone or Nintendo DS so I have no time to look around.

Anyway, me and Greg Sanders were this close to cracking the case and the only reason I didn't solve this murder last night is because I almost fell asleep playing so at around 2AM I gave up and turned it off....oh and I'm talking about the CSI game for the DS. I love that game.

Anyway, just before I slipped into the bathroom I looked up from my game briefly and saw my aunt at the end of the hallway with a laundry basket in hand wishing me a 'good morning'. I nodded in acknowledgment and pushed the door open with my shoulder.

Finally in the bathroom,I simply dropped my clothes on the floor, put my phone on the counter, and kept playing my game while getting ready for the day at the same time...I even checked my blood sugar while talking to a witness.

The only time I actually sat it down was when I grabbed my insulin pen, dialed up the units, and gave myself my long acting insulin shot for the day. Once that was over with I pulled my wavy/curly hair into a ponytail. Checked the mirror, putmy phone in my back pocket, and then checked my evidence log in the game...I was soo close to cracking the case.

Me: *thinking* "Just one more piece of evidence to link the perp to the crime scene. Come on, Greg! We can do it!"

I grabbed my jammies and opened the door to exit the bathroom.....and slammed it right back shut almost dropping my precious DS in the process!

??? *muffled voice* "What the heck? Jess, seriously!

I started laughing hysterically while saying, "Sorry Tyler, for a moment I thought you were Joe Jonas" and with that I reopened the door...only to close it right away again! *BAM CRACK* That was my DS.

Me "CRAP!"

Joe "What the heck do you mean you thought it was me AND WHO's TYLER????"
