CHAPTER 16:

*KEVIN’S POV*
As I walked out of the room I thought about how great Is was to me. She really was a great friend. I was truly going to miss her. Then I thought about how her eyes reminded me of Joanna’s eyes. They sparkled the same way. Actually now that I come to think of it, the girl that claimed to be Joanna didn’t have that sparkle. Sure, they were green but they weren’t the same green. I walked out of the store and back to my brothers.

I remembered two minutes ago when I was walking out of the room.
“I promised remember and thanks Is you’re a great friend” I said and then I walked out the door. “Too bad that’s all we’ll ever be,” I whispered to the closed door behind me as I began to walk away.

Why didn’t I go back in there and tell her that I thought I liked her. That something about her reminded me of Joanna yet something seemed different. I shook the thought away from my head and continued walking towards my brothers who were packed and ready to leave.

*ISABELLA’S POV*
I walked over to the window in the guitar room and watched as he walked out of the store. He paused for a second and turned around. I quickly backed away before he saw me. I approached the window again seconds later but he was gone. I walked out and over to the register to continue working. It was already seven o’clock and it was a Saturday night so I only had two more hours to go before the entire mall closed including Miller Music.

*JOE’S POV*
We were in the car on our way back to the hotel after a long day of signing autographs and searching for Kevin’s Cinderella. I was relieved when he told me that he had found her but something just didn’t feel right. It seems way too easy. I mean she ran out devastated after those horrible girls treated her so badly. I don’t think she would come out to the light so easily and so quickly. If it were me I would be sad and crying and embarrassed to even show my face. I would be scared. But I'm not that girl. Maybe she’s just different and maybe she’s just brave. Still, I find it way to quick then my brother tells me that she wants to go out tonight. I don’t know but something’s up and I'm going to find out what.

We arrived at the hotel about a half hour later just to get ready and leave again. As soon as we got upstairs and into our room, Kevin began his planning and I went straight to the laptop. I signed onto my aim and saw that Isabella wasn’t online. I wonder what she’s doing right now. She’s probably busy work…

“Hello Joe” Kevin said snapping me out of my thoughts. “Earth to Joe” he waved his hand in my face.
“Huh” I said as I signed off aim.
“Did you hear anything I said?” he asked as he sat next to me.
“Not really” I replied.
“Well are you going?” he asked.
“Where?” I replied with a question.
“Out with Joanna and her sister tonight” he said.
“Uh I guess sure why not?” I answered.
“Alright then get ready she’ll be here in an hour” he said and he got up and walked to the bathroom.

Nick and I quickly got ready while Kevin took forever. I knew he was in the bathroom ironing his hair. I could smell it. After about a half hour after Nick and I were ready, we heard the hotel room phone ring.

“I got it,” I said to Nick who attempted to get it.
“Hello” I said into the receiver.
“Mr. Jonas you have a visitor downstairs by the name of Joanna” the concierge replied.
“Okay we’ll be down in a sec thanks” I said before hanging up. “Kevin your girlfriend’s here” I yelled to the bathroom door as I knocked on the door “We’ll be downstairs” I said as I grabbed my jacket and headed towards the door.
“Okay I'm done,” he said coming out of the bathroom and grabbing his jacket.
“Let’s go” I said to Nick as we opened the door and walked out.

We got into the elevator and made our way down. When the elevator doors opened we walked into the lobby and saw her sitting on the couch with someone who resembled her I'm guessing it was her sister.
We had our introductions and then made our way out to Joanna’s car. She had a Hummer H3 in a really nice royal blue. The interior was really nice. It had black leather seats and a touch screen radio with TVs behind every seat. The windows were tinted really dark. My first guess was that this girl had money and a lot of it. She drove in front with Kevin. Her sister Juliet sat next to me in the back and Nick sat on my left side. It was obvious she had a crush on me. It was somewhat awkward because she kept staring at me and batting her eyes. I was so uncomfortable sitting by her. I was so glad when we finally arrived at downtown Miami.

Juliet said this place was called Bayside. It had a lot of shops and restaurants and there was a marina where there were a lot of ships. There was from romantic ships to eat dinner to party ships that looked like nightclubs with their bright strobe lights. We rode a ferry called Captain Jimmy's Fiesta (Party Boat). It was a club in a boat. It was a lot of fun dancing in a moving nightclub until Juliet started grinding on me. At first, I didn’t mind until she started to move sexually on me. When I say sexually, I mean sexually she even tried to touch me and that was after she tried to kiss me. Thankfully, the boat stopped when we arrived back at the marina and I hurriedly rushed onto the dock. I tried my best to stay away from her. I even told Nick and he totally understood. That as after he had a good laugh about it. He tried his best to stay by me so that she didn’t get the chance to try anything again. We went to eat then we went to watch a performance by the marina. There was a cute little stage by the water where people would just sit and dance to people playing music and singing. It was really nice. When we arrived back at the car I made sure I got the window and Nick sat next to me and Juliet on the complete other side of him far from me, I could tell she was kind of bumped but it still didn’t stop her from gawking at me.

We arrived at the hotel and I quickly jumped off the car and waved goodbye. I wanted no physical contact with Juliet whatsoever. I was afraid she might grab my butt or something. I quickly walked into the hotel before she jumped off the car and ran after me. Nick followed behind me laughing as I made my way into the elevator.

“So have a nice night Joe?” he said sarcastically as we reached our floor.
“So not funny Nick” I said sourly as the doors opened and I walked out with him trailing behind.
“Yea it was Joe it was hilarious and you know it” he said as we entered our room.
“Whatever” I said as I made my way towards the laptop.

I looked at the clock to see that it was ten thirty. I grabbed the laptop and signed on aim. Isabella had to be online.
