"And so, I'm reading the script now." I retold them the story Joe has probably heard so much these days.

"I told you! You got this."

The brothers were both so supportive. So much so that when Joe told me that they have started working on a secret album, - which of course, I know he'll be blabbering on after a few days - they took time to extend support to me. Joe knew I didn't know anyone in the business and made it a point to be my number one supporter.

"You're amazing, Y/N." Nick spoke after his older brother.

"Oh come on, you guys are amazing." I said after swallowing the bite of burger I had in my mouth, "You guys make music! Year 3000 just got released. You are making your own album and wow!"

Joe nodded in agreement, "We are amazing, aren't we?" He moved his hair, his bangs were longer tonight.

"Get a hair cut, Jonas." I threw a piece of lettuce at Joe. The lettuce got stuck on his hair and when Joe shook his head to get it off, it hit Nick right on the face.

2007 started well. I got signed to Disney. I made friends with the most amazing guys. I am about to start working on my first movie ever!

After a few minutes of laughing, Joe finished his burger. "Okay. Here's a deal, Y/N. We'll get you tickets to our upcoming concert..."

"Joe!"
"You have a concert coming up?"

Joe's cheek reddened slightly but he continued, without skipping a beat, "Right. Where was I? Tickets to our concert and we need tickets to your movie premiere!" He held out a hand and I looked at it for awhile before agreeing.

We shook our hands for it.

"Shake Nick's hand too." Joe told me when he let my hand go, "I mean, I'd ask you to shake Kev's hand if he was here but since he isn't, shake Nick's hand twice as long instead."

I frowned at Joe. The middle Jonas keeps on teasing Nick and me - what if Nick feels awkward because of all this?

"Joe." There goes Nick's exasperated tone again. I don't think I would be able to go through a conversation with the brothers without hearing it.

"Well? Go on! If she only gives me one premiere ticket, don't go crying to me."

Nick's eyes landed on me. He let out a quick sigh before extending his hand to me, "Promise me you'll give me tickets for all your future movies and I promise I'll give you tickets to my..." Ehem. "Sorry. Our. Our concerts."

I took his hand in mine and felt a jolt, as though informing me I was holding the hand of the Nick Jonas, as though I didn't know that already.

"I promise."

With that, our promises were made. After burgers, the brothers took me home. I didn't tell them not to anymore, I knew they'd insist. And just like always, Nick walked me to my door.

We walked in silence and when we got to the front door, I turned to Nick to bade him good night.

Instead of the cold night air, I felt Nick's warm lips on the side of my mouth. We pulled back in surprise.

He seemed startled as well.

"Shit. Sorry." Nick stepped back, his blush obvious under the moonlight. "I just wanted to...hug you good night. I should've asked! Sorry! I am so not good with this. I am not good with casual stuff."

I bit my lower lip. Nick kissed me. We kissed.

A bit. I mean, the side of my mouth but...we kissed!

"I thought it will be okay. Sorry. Joe likes hugging you. I wanted to hug you too." He mumbled on while I stood there in silence.

"What?" We heard in a distance. It was Joe's voice, "They what? No! I didn't see!"

We both turned our heads to the car, Joe was gaping, his shocked face facing us when the windows rolled down.

"You kissed?" He yelled out. I am sure that his voice would be heard so clearly by both my parents and my neighbors. "How? What? Why?"

And instantly, the awkward silence dissolved. We laughed at Joe's surprise.

"Don't laugh at me! Answer me! Nicholas Jerry Jonas! She is officially my best friend! Before you kiss her, you have to go through me first!"

"Damn, your brother is crazy."

He nodded at my statement. When Joe calmed down, (after, "We'll talk when you get in the car!") Nick turned his attention to me again. This time, he was a few centimeters away from me. "Good night, Y/N."

"Good night, Nicky." I giggled his nickname, "And you can just hug me whenever you feel like it. I know you're very private and you keep to yourself a lot so I don't want to make you uncomfortable."

"I was worried I made you uncomfortable." He admitted. "Sorry about that."

"That's okay." I told him. It was very okay!

"Not like that's your first kiss right?" Nick chuckled softly but he stopped when I didn't answer, "Wait? That was your...first kiss?"

"Good night Nicky!" I waved him off - trying to play it cool.

Inside, I was screaming.
