Angel (Nick Jonas)

Chapter 3-Night

Nick's PoV
I reached her door, internally battling with myself whether I should knock. Maybe she went back to sleep? Deciding to just creek it open slightly and peek in, I saw she was not in bed. Looking around, I noticed she was standing on the balcony. I stepped in, seeing Pepsi flat out on the bed. I smiled to myself, always wanting a German Shepard but never having the time to look after one.

I opened the balcony doors quietly, yet she noticed.
"What're you doing up?" She asked softly, her hair gently swaying in the wind.
"I couldn't sleep. I saw your post and decided to come and see you" I mumbled, moving to stand next to her.
She smiled, resting her arms against the railing.
"What's got you awake?" I asked.
"I'm not sure. Maybe it's just adjusting to the new environment" she shrugged off, not telling the whine truth.
I dropped it, not wanting to push her to tell me.

Elizabeth's PoV
I knew I was awake because of nick. It was typical he showed up now. Somewhere deep inside, I wanted him to.
"What about you?" I questioned.
"I don't know myself, maybe I wanted to see you?" He asked, that gruff sleepy voice making me blush.
Out of the corner of my eye I could see him watching me carefully. I brushed my hand through my hair and faded him. It was only then I noticed how close we were.
"I'm really glad you're back in LA, you know?" Nick whispered.
"So am I" I replied softly.

His eyes were to die for. So deep, holding untold emotions. It felt like a cheesy romantic movie. I felt Nick's gaze flick down to my lips as he leant in. A dog bark made us pull apart before anything could happen, to my annoyance. I looked to my dog and saw her sitting by the door, wagging her tail innocently.
"I should probably go to bed" nick said, rubbing the back of his neck.
"Yeah...night" I said as he nodded and left.
I picked Pepsi up, scowling.
"You just had to ruin that, didn't you?" I asked as she licked my face.

Time Skip
After getting little it no sleep because of what almost happened last night, I got up at 8:30. I let Pepsi out the back door outside as Kevin woke up.
"What happened last night?" He asked.
"You gave up on not drinking since us three were. You and joe feel asleep" I explained as he sighed.
"Explains the headache. Any painkillers?" He asked as I nodded.
"I don't judge you for drinking. Must be nice to be away from the kids for once" I said, getting the packet of painkillers out.
"I do love them. But you're right" he chuckled as I gave him a glass of water and painkillers.

I walked over to Joe, who had not moved.
"Is he alive?" I questioned, looking at the blanket wrapped thing that was Joe Jonas on my couch.
"I don't know...maybe?" Kevin said.
"Only one way to find out" I said whilst calling for Pepsi.
I grabbed her, dropping her full weight onto Joe. He groaned, Pepsi jumping off.
"Owww...What was that for?" He asked, opening his eyes then immediately throwing his arm over them.
"We wanted to check you were alive" I shrugged, smiling as he groaned again.

"Maybe there's other ways? You know...check if I'm breathing?!" He said sarcastically as we all laughed.
"You did pass a medical course didn't you?" Kevin asked as I nodded.
"Yeah while the band was starting up when I was sixteen" I said.

I started making breakfast, some eggs, bacon and toast for the hungover princesses.
Joe went searching through my cupboards after he has some painkillers, finally finding the coffee.
"Where's Nick?" Joe asked, giving me a cup of coffee.
A took it, placing it on the side as it was still hot.

"He's in the spare bedroom. Unlike you two, we actually know how to handle alcohol" I teased.
"Hey!" Joe said, then winced at his own volume.
"I have two kids, I have an excuse" Kevin said, coming into the kitchen as I gave them some food.
I nodded in agreement, excusing myself to go wake Nick up.

I knocked on the spare room door, going in when I heard his mumble to come in. I immediately blushed upon seeing nick in his bed, no shirt on. He was really ripped and toned.
"What's up?" He mumbled.
"J-just telling you that breakfast is...ready" I said as he nodded.
The air seemed tense from last night, that almost kiss.
"Ok, I'll be through soon" he said as I nodded.
"Oh lord" I mumbled as I re-emerged.

Joe and Kevin were eating, looking up when I walked in.
"You alright?" Joe asked with a smirk.
I rolled my eyes, sitting at the breakfast bar with the pair.
"You seem a bit...red?" Kevin asked with a smirk as I groaned.
I put my head into my hands and flagged the pair off.

After a couple of minutes, nick emerged with a shirt on.
"Hungover?" He asked his two older brothers.
Kevin didn't look too bad but Joe just looked awful.
"I'm not feeling as bad" Kevin said as I handed nick his food on the way to the sink.

Time Skip

Joe burst out laughing at the ship name as I sipped my coffee, savouring the taste.  It was a good coffee.
"Are you done?" Nick asked, sitting next to me.
His arm rested on the back of the couch behind my head.
I think that position was a men thing, they always seem to do it.

"Anyways, we wanted to ask if you'd feature on one of our songs on the album we're working on?" Kevin asked, leaving joe to do as he wished.
"Sure. When is it set to release?" I asked, leaning my head back onto nick's arm.
He smiled sweetly at me, making my heart melt.
"9th of June" Joe called.
"Dammit mines 22nd of June" I said.
"Guess we'll both be touring similar times then?" Nick asked.
"Yeah probably. We haven't sorted that indefinitely but we're getting there" I explained.

I sipped my coffee, watching the boys talk between themselves about tour and music. It was nice seeming them as brothers and a band, not one or the other. Hopefully it could stay that way.
