Truthfully

Road Trips and New Friends

JOE'S POV

I picked up my guitar and started to play a familiar tune. My life dream was to be a musician, but I knew my friends would judge me if they found out. They love me, but they always ridiculed big dreams that never had a chance at becoming a reality. When I think of it, my group made fun of everyone, we were the most popular guys in the school. The teachers thought we were angels, but the others would pick on the little things about other students. They always said it was because they were only trying to make them their best, but I knew they were power hungry for popularity. I hated being mean but I wanted to be on the right side of the arguments, so I stayed close to them. I knew that if I stood up for those they picked on I would be on the receiving end of the bullying.

But outside of school they were friendly, compassionate and just great fun. We had been on road trips and camps ever since I could speak. We jumped off waterfalls and walked up mountains. We have the best jokes and the tightest relationship ever. Nothing gets between us.

"Yo, Joe! What do you say to a road trip this weekend? We are think about heading up to NYC?" That was Liam. Liam Hemsworth, great friend, super tall, brown cropped hair and blue eyes.

"Yeah I'm up for it, are Nick and Kevin?" I double checked to make sure my brothers would be coming, I don't like going away without them, it gives me a sense of security. I mean they tease my all the time but wherever they are, that's where home is.

"Why not, they know their way around NYC." Liam is an only child but he gels in well with us. He keeps me from destroying my brothers, or helps me destroy them.

I threw my duffel bag into the minivan and sat myself in shotgun. I couldn't drive yet but I love sitting in the front seat. I get to experience the outdoors front on and i get close to the radio. I just have this undeniable connection to music. Kevin opens the driver's seat door and plops himself down. Before closing the door, he yells at Liam and Nick to hurry up and get in the van, or he will leave without them. He slams the door and chuckles to himself. I look out my window and see Liam and Nick. the pair of them are tackling each other to get the the van first. They are always so competitive and physical with each other. Liam edges in front and flings the van door opened and scooted over to the road side seat. Nick follows only seconds after and slams the door. Nick only had time to blink before Kevin revved the engine and put his indicator on to pull out of the driveway

A few hours after we pulled onto the freeway, I saw Nick asleep, with his head on the window. I got Liam's attention and luckily he brought his can of whipped cream. I gave him the look and he nodded. Stealthily, he layered on the whipped cream on Nick's hand. Kevin looked at me, with his iconic 'you're an idiot' look. I brushed him off and when i looked over at Liam, he had just finished spraying the remainder cream into his mouth. I leaned behind me and gently scratched Nick's face. He woke with a start, and fell into the trap of placing his hand on his face. This lead to him with the cream all over his face, and down his Rolling Stones shirt. He scowled at Liam and I, but we just laughed and took photos. Poor Nick still had 4 hours to go before we would get to NYC.

We finally made it to the hotel. I opened the door and the breeze hit me. I stretched out my legs and they could barely hold me from being stuck in the same position for several hours. Nick got out and immediately started rummaging for his bag, to get a fresh shirt. He finally got his bag and Kevin snatched it right off him, as he believed it was best we check in first. While they were arguing about that, me and Liam took the initiative to check in. We walked into the lobby, and a man, around the same age as us, was sitting and reading a magazine about Boy Meets World. I told Liam to check in and I went to speak to this guy. He had long bronde hair, and a shaggy beard. His blue eyes concentrated on the magazine in front of him. As i approached, he looked up at me.

"Hi, i'm Joe Jonas, I just saw your magazine and wanted to say I really like Boy Meets World." I reached over to shake his hand. He was very friendly.

He accepted my hand and shook it, "Yeah, I went to a taping once, the cast are great. So, ah, where are you from, Joe?"

"Oh I am just visiting New York for the weekend with my friend and brothers. Are you from here?"

"Yeah, Midtown. I gotta run, but we should catch up later! I work at this hotel so we should grab lunch or coffee tomorrow. See ya later Joe"

"Haha yeah, see ya later, shoot I didn't get your name!"

"It's Jack, or Big Kat by my friends"
