*Kissable And Quiet* Nick Jonas

*Chapter Eleven*

Abby

            Ashley told me I had to go wake up Nick tomorrow to hang out. I thanked her and plopped onto my bed. I closed my eyes and quickly fell asleep. I woke up the next morning at four, jumped in the shower quickly, dressed and went up to the deck to watch the sunrise.

            It would've been better if I had been with Nick, but I figured it was too early to wake him up. At around eight, I walked back down to our level and headed over to his room. I gently knocked on the door. Kevin opened it, rubbing his eyes.

            "Morning." He smiled. I smiled back.

            "Did I wake you up?" I asked, worriedly.

            "Yeah-but I can go back to sleep again. And Nick's not here. Brittany and posse dragged him off at like five this morning." He said apologetically. My heart sank, but I shrugged.

            "What ever. I'm kinda used to this by now." I sighed.

            "Wanna come in? We can put a blanket over Joe and pretend like he's not here." He offered and I laughed.

            "Sure." He stepped aside and I walked in, shutting the door behind me.

            "You ok?" He asked as we sat on his bed.

            "I guess. Just… I miss my best friend. Every time we start to get close again-she ruins it. And then he usually gets mad at me. It's like clock work. We hang out, she comes, Nick and I get in a fight. Almost like it's my fault."

            "It's not." He said firmly.

            "Oh, I know. But that's how he acts sometimes. Like it's my fault she's snotty and annoying and has to ruin everything." I sighed. "And once he's away from her for a while, he apologizes , we're ok and then it starts all over again."

            "You know he wouldn't be doing this if he wasn't with her." He said.

            "I know. I swear-she's the PMS that causes all his mood swings." I mumbled and Kevin fell over laughing.

            "That's the greatest thing I've ever heard!" He said, still laughing hysterically.

            "I’m serious. It's only after he sees her that he flips." I sighed, dropping onto my back on his bed.

            "I know. I'm sorry. So what are you doing today?" He asked, looking at me.

            "I dunno. I might try to find Tony and see how his book is going." I said dully.

            "Do we get to meet him?" Kevin asked as Joe stirred in his bed.

            "If you want to." I shrugged.

            "Yeah! Joe! Get up!" He shouted, throwing pillows at Joe. He yelped and fell off his bed. I giggled.

            "I'll wait outside-you guys get dressed." I said, standing up.

            "Okay."

            "Morning, Joe." I said.

            "Hey, Abs." He yawned. I laughed and exited the room. I sat out in the hallway, humming to myself as Ashley came around the corner and spotted me.

            "Hey, babe." She said, heading over. She slid down and sat next to me.

            "Hey." I smiled.
