Prom night was finally here, everyone was beyond excited. But Melissa couldn't wait to get to the venue and dance the night away with her friends... and hopefully, Nick...

He promised her that he would make it, and he always kept his promises. She just hoped that Phil would actually listen to Nick this time and realize that he needs to be there for this... or he'd have one upset girlfriend on his hands.

Melissa sat quietly on a high top chair, as Danielle was curling her hair. Denise and Cindy were sitting in the living room catching up, as both mothers had flown in for the special event and would be staying in town until her graduation in a few weeks.

"Has anyone heard from Nick?" Melissa asked, chewing on her bottom lip, it was about 5 hours from the big event starting. So her little heart was getting more and more nervous that he wouldn't make it.

Denise smiled over at the two girls, as her and Cindy came into the kitchen, "I just texted him, he said him and Joe and Kev are boarding the plane as we speak, they should be in Jersey soon."

The young girl nodded, taking in a shaky breath, "he promised he'd be here..." she whispered, chewing on her lip as tears welled up.

"And he will be darling, I promise." Denise smiled sadly at her, "you know him, he never breaks his promises when it comes to you."

She nodded softly as Dani was turned away to grab some more bobby pins. "I know... and that is what worries me the most..." she mumbled to herself.

An hour passed by, and her hair was done, up in a nice updo, with small curls hanging out, framing her face perfectly.

Dani smiled big at the girl, "ready for your makeup?" she questioned, grabbing the big box of makeup that was waiting for them.

Melissa nodded, and let Dani do her magic on the teenager. It took sometime to get everything to blend together and make her face light up even more then it already was. As time passed on, Melissa kept glancing to her phone that was sitting in her lap. She just wanted to see Nick's face lighting up the screen, to know that they had landed and were safe.

"I'm getting more and more nervous..." she mumbled, looking at Dani, who stood in front of her, smiling sadly at her.

"I know, but like Denise said, he will make it." she reminded her, and at that moment, there was a jiggling sound out side of the front door, and a distant, "WE MADE IT!" it sounded like Joe's voice.

"FINALLY!" Cindy and Denise exclaimed, "you guys were about to make Melissa go crazy." Denise laughed softly.

The band of brothers walked in, smiling at one of the most important girl's in their life. Nick was the last one to enter, stopping as he saw his girlfriend, "Hey baby... y-you— you look drop dead gorgeous." he stuttered out, his toothy grin coming to his face.

She blushed as her eyes landed on him. "Hey boo." she smiled, and he came over, as Dani stopped applying the eyeshadow for a second so he could kiss the teen.

"If you mess up her makeup, I will hurt you." Dani half-joked, grinning at the young Jonas Brother.

Nick nervously chuckled, and gave his girlfriend a funny look, kissing her lightly, "love you." he whispered.

"Love you more." she replied, letting Dani finish her "masterpiece".

Melissa hadn't let Nick see her dress for the night, just gave him the tie that matched her dress, and said to wear a black suit. She wanted him to be surprised.

The boys went and sat by the older women and they all had small talk, till Nick went to Kevin and Dani's room to put on his suit and Melissa went to the guest room to put her dress on.
