Chapter 17:
Joe was going through paper works, when Kristy and a girl came in.
Joe: hey girls! How was the mall?
Kristy: huh? Oh the mall right, like Dawn and I said we were going to
Joe: uh... yeah... seems like you made a new friend
Dawn: I'm new in school
Joe: I know, I have you in my class
Dawn: right... I forgot Kristy mention you were her brother
Nick: *comes out* hey family
Dawn: Professor Turner?
Kristy: oh yeah Nick also lives with us, got to go
Nick: I hope you two have been working on your assignment together
Joe: assignment? Kristy, you didn't say anything about the assignment
Kristy: I thought you knew
Dawn: yeah don't you and Nick go over lesson plans or something
Joe: no, just because we all live together doesn't mean we have to know each other's business. Nick and I have set boundaries with each other. What he teaches to his class is his business and what I teach to my class is my business
Dawn: oh so you're okay with Professor Turner talking to us about sex
Joe: what?!
Dawn: I'm kidding!
Nick: she's kidding Joe really
Joe: you better be kidding, that's one thing where I draw the line
Kristy: um... let's say a friend of mine went to a clinic and got these pills to protect herself from having sex
Joe: well I say if this friend of yours is wanting to have sex, yes they should be protected, but I rather they wait until their married and this friend better not be my little sister or I'm going to beat their little butt *gives her the stink eye*
Kristy: *nervous chuckle
P* thank goodness it's not me, because I'm not thinking about that for a while
Joe: good, because you have vows and a made a promise to god
Kristy: did you wait?
Joe: Noo... which is why you need to
Kristy: fine... can I go
Joe: go
Kristy sighs and leaves with Dawn upstairs.
In Kristy's bedroom.
Dawn: so... when are you going to tell them about the birth control pills
Kristy: when I move out... they'll kill me. They'll think I want to have sex
Dawn: technically you do, cause all the girls are talking about it in school and they think your a virgin
Kristy: are you a virgin?
Dawn: there's nothing wrong with being a virgin Kristy
Kristy: yes there is, I'm tired of wearing this ring. Nobody wears these anymore, so why do I have too. I don't want people to know that I'm not having sex until marriage *takes off ring and throws it on the bed*
Kristy sighs and puts it back on after looking at a picture of her and her parents on her besides table.
Kristy: I can't do this, although I made a promise to god. I also made a promise to my parents
Dawn: oh your the girl with the dead parents, sorry...
Kristy: yeah it's cool
Dawn: what are your parents going to do, haunt you in your sleep?
Kristy: well... it happened before. But they only appear if I have lied or feel extremely guilty about something that I can't sleep. It's the only way I can be able to see them again
Just then someone's phone rang and it was Kristy and it was Noah on her phone.
Kristy: it's Noah, should I answer it?
Dawn: duh!
Kristy: *answers* hey... um... Friday night? Of course... it's a date *hangs up*
Both of them squeal and jump up and down together and Kristy said.
Kristy: he asked me out!
Dawn: I know I heard! I'm so happy for you
Kristy: *face turns sad*
Dawn: what's wrong? Why no more happy dance?
Kristy: I got a problem, the boys will never let me go out on a date. They both said I'm too young
Dawn: 15 isn't young
Kristy: yeah but my parents and I agree when I turned 16
Dawn: Are you scared of breaking your promise to your brother or your parents?
Kristy: both...
Dawn: How old was Joe when he started dating?
Kristy: 16 and that's how it will always be in this family
Dawn: dang your family strict. My mom doesn't care if I start dating
Kristy: by the way, what's going on with you and Stacey, she was pretty mad about you today
Dawn: oh... it's a thing we use to do...
Kristy: what's that?
Dawn: it's a long story, and you should probably want to hear it from Stacey's first, after you hear it from her, you probably won't want to be friends with me anymore. I made a mistake and I should have been there for her
Kristy: is that why she didn't want me hanging out with you
Dawn: yup, I'm the reason why she left her other home
Kristy: I'm sure what you did wasn't that bad for Stacey to hate you like that
Dawn: trust me, she hates my guts and I don't blame her. I was a shitty friend. How are you going to explain the boys about the date?
Kristy: I'm not telling them, I'm going to say that I'm going to stay the night at your place to work on our project even tho we are not actually going to work on it
Dawn: ahhh...I see what you're doing
Kristy: see... you get me
The next morning.
Joe: Kristy! Did you finish your school work?
Kristy: yeah Joe! It's in my backpack!
Joe: alright, I'm going to check if you did your assignment!
Kristy: okay!
Joe went through Kristy's bag to look for her school work, when he found the birth control in her backpack.
Nick: *comes in* hey bud, sorry about breakfast today, I'm kind of in a hurry, I have meeting to get too
Joe held up the birth control pill and Nick said.
Nick: is that what I think it is
Joe: yeah... I found them in Kristy's backpack and it's already open
Nick: you don't think she's...
Joe: Kristy! Get your butt downstairs!
It was silence between Joe and Nick as Kristy came down the stairs.
Kristy: what's going on?
Joe: where did these come from *holds up pills*
Kristy: *froze* uh...
Joe: are you having sex?
Kristy: what no?!
Nick: Kristy don't lie to us, you know lying is never works in this house, we always find out the truth in the end
Kristy: *gulps* I got them at the clinic for um... my period
Joe: so your not having sex?
Kristy: *lies* no sir
Joe: good, because you know that birth control doesn't protect you from disease like STD and HIV
Kristy: It doesn't?
Joe: no, we talked about this when we gave you the ring remember
Kristy: oh yeah the ring... about the ring... do I have to wear it?
Both: yes
Joe: in this family you do
Kristy: but I don't want people to know I'm still a virgin, nobody in school wear these anymore
Joe: when Nick and I had to wear the ring it was because we were going to wait for the right one. We don't want you sleeping around with people you don't know, well technically I don't want you sleeping around with anybody but that's not my decision to make. It's your decisions to who you want to lose your virginity too, all Nick and I asked is if you do plan on having sex in the future is that you practice safe sex
Kristy: wow, I was not expecting this from you. I was hoping for a can of whoop ass from you
Nick: so was I
Joe: I maybe your overprotective brother, but I'm also your guardian/teacher, and I just thought what a normal teacher would say
Kristy: okay, so what would overprotective Joe Jonas say about me having sex
Joe: there's no way in hell my little sister is having sex with a random boy
Nick: now that's the Joe we all know in love
Kristy: he's back...
Joe: *roll eyes* but you get what I'm trying to tell you right kiddo?
Kristy: I guess, but you have nothing to worry about. I'm not having sex
Joe/Nick: *sighs in relief* good
Nick: *looks at watch* oh shoot I'm late
Kristy: Can you give me a ride?
Nick: uh... sure kiddo, you do know you will be at school a little earlier than usually right?
Kristy: I know, but I need to talk to one of my professors about my paper
Nick: alright
Kristy: bye Joe
Joe: bye guys, aren't you going to get something to eat
Nick: will order something at the diner downstairs
Joe: alright, I'm going to make sure the twins are ready for school, see ya
Nick and Kristy left the loft apartment and Joe headed upstairs to check on the twins.
