Thank you, everyone that wrote these stories!! I love them, and YOU should look at them, right now :) Anyway, please review!! It would make my life!!
“Joe, it’s time for dinner, and Mom says you have to come to the table,” Nick said, running upstairs to where his brother was. There was no answer. “Joe?” he asked, sticking his head into the room.
“Mmmmm,” came the response. Joe was glued to the screen of him computer and barely registered what his younger brother had said.
“Joe, come on!” Nick whined, going up and tugging on his arm. “Frankie’s singing Monster Claw again, and he said he wouldn’t shut up until he has food!”
“Tell Mom to start without me.”
Nick looked past the back of Joe’s head, to the screen. “What could possibly be keeping you away from food?” He saw nothing put writing, which confused him. Since when does Joe read out of books even?
The younger boy closed the laptop screen, making Joe screech with protest. “Come on I would’ve showed you!”
“After dinner,” Nick said, pulling his brother out of the room and down the stairs.
AFTER DINNER
“Now would you kindly show me what you were looking at before?” Nick asked Joe. Joe nearly sprinted back up to the room, dragging Nick with him. Kevin, seeing this, followed closely, not wanting to be left out.
“Am I about to see what was keeping Joseph from three-cheese lasagna?” he asked, laughing, as Joe seriously nodded.
He tore up his laptop and quickly put in the password. Again, the screen of words popped up.
“What, an online book?” Kevin asked, plopping down next to him.
“No,” Joe said, with a grin. “Better. Fan fiction.”
“Fan fiction?” Nick said with a laugh. “Why the hell would you read Fan fiction?”
“Not just any, Nicholas…Jonas Fan fiction.” Joe continued his story, as Kevin grabbed the computer.
“No way,” he said. “People writing about us?”
“And Mom, and Dad, and Frankie!”
“Care to tell us how you found this?”
“Oh, you know,” Joe blushed slightly. “Just…went onto the site and typed in our names…” Nick and Kevin couldn’t help but laugh at Joe’s obsession of finding new stuff about them.
“So what’s this one?” Nick asked, pointing to the story that Joseph had been so intrigued by.
“Oh, it’s really really cool! So you were kidnapped, right? And then the guy kept beating you up, and putting pictures and stuff on the Internet, and then – ”
“So I’m guessing this author doesn’t like me very much,” Nick said sarcastically, rolling his eyes. “Glad to see you like it too.”
“No, no, I’m getting to it. So there’s this boy named Gavin, and he’s helping you, and then you get back, and everyone’s telling you that Gavin isn’t real and you used him to get even…And that’s how far I’ve gotten.”
“What’s slash?” Kevin asked suddenly. “It says she’s thinking about putting slash in it?”
“Oh, I don’t know yet,” Joe said. “What you think I know everything about this yet?”
“I wanna see what happens,” Nick said, grabbing the laptop and clicking on some random chapter.
“WOAH!” He yelled, tossing it away. “JOE WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU READING?”
“What’s he talking about?” Joe asked.
Kevin took the laptop and read aloud, “Nick’s hands rested on Gavin’s lower thighs and Gavin’s hands were playing across Nick’s sides. “I love you…I’m so, so, so sorry,” Nick breathed between kisses. “Stop apologizing and kiss me.” Gavin pressed his lips back to Nick’s and Nick didn’t object. Well I guess we figured out what slash is.”
“Can we please go to something else?” Nick asked.
“NO!” Joe nearly screamed. “I’m enjoying this story, even if you hate it.” He went back to another chapter, not remembering what he had been on, and saw something that he didn’t like. “Okay, next story…”
The boys went back to A Cinderella Story, each of them wondering why their stuff was in this section. With a shrug, they clicked the one that sounded interesting.
“Flashbacks…sounds…mysterious,” Joe said with a laugh. And look, it doesn’t say slash anywhere.”
“Good,” Nick said, crossing his arms.
They read a few chapters before Joe said, “Okay, is it just me, or am I like, quiet in this.” Everyone laughed, trying to picture Joe as he was in the story.
“Well, I’m the one that died,” Kevin said. “Maybe that set you over the edge!” Then he turned to Nick, “And I’m not overreacting!”
They read on in silence, as Nick was mad at Kevin. “Wooooah,” Joe said, suddenly. ‘That was it. I was done. I didn’t even know what I was doing until I was doing it. I walked out of the room and opened the door to the storage closet. I pulled out what I was looking for and noticed Nick giving me an odd look as I walked past him. I walked back into the living room and when Joe didn’t even notice me I knew that this was the day. I took the sledge hammer and smashed it into the TV. This girl sounds a little odd…why did I marry her?”
“Ha, leave it to Joe to marry the girl that smashes things with sledge hammers…”
“Shut up, Nick, at least I don’t lose my virginity to men!”
Nick gave him a hard stare. “Here, let me find the next one.”
He searched around a while until he came to a user that he thought had a cool name. ‘Ermine AKA Tree’. He looked through her stories and found one that had Joe and Kevin in it. That would serve them well. He clicked on it and thrust the computer back at them. “Enjoy,” he said with an evil smirk.
“Kevin’s lips left Joe’s, trailing across his jaw and down his neck to where the chain lay against the younger boy’s smooth skin. Kevin slipped his tongue under the necklace and pulled it into his mouth, faintly tasting the metal scraping a narrow path across his lips as he traced the chain down Joe’s chest. When he reached the cross, he pressed it gently to Joe’s skin with a kiss before taking it in his mouth and sucking on it for the few seconds it took to lift his head back up to Joe’s. He kissed Joe again, letting the hard metal points of the cross dig into their tongues as he transferred it to Joe’s mouth. All right, Nick, was that really necessary to make us read?”
“Yeah, come on, that’s not even like – funny,” Joe said, looking serious. Nick all of a sudden felt shamed, and shyly apologized. Then he heard his older brothers start cracking up, and he glared at them.
“Here,” Kevin said. “Let’s find a normal one.” He grabbed the computer and searched down the list. “Here, this one looks good, we’re not famous in it.” He laid the laptop in the middle of them so they could all see.
“Boo,” Nick said. “We’re barely in it. Do you really have to help out Joe’s ego?” he said, laughing.
“Help my ego, look at this!” Joe said, “Joe looked around, kneeling against the wall. He had a cup of beer in his hand, not drinking it of course, just for looks. I shook my head at him. I’m some insecure freak that cares about what others think! Next!” He said, clicking the back button.
He clicked on one about Nick, figuring maybe he could help his image. How wrong he was.
"Would you like to dance Shannon?" He asked me offering me his hand once again. I just kissed him once again, as we stood up and moved to the beat of the rain. Just Perfect.
“Ha ha, see, people actually do like me on this site,” Nick laughed, knowing that this story had just foiled Joe’s master plan.
“I think we need one about me,” Kevin said, grabbing the computer yet again to search for a good one.
He pulled up one. “Hey, this is actually pretty cool! Neither of you are in it, and I’m in the 1800s…as the print shop apprentice wah ha ha ha.” Of course that got weird looks from his brothers, but all of them quickly turned to read it.
Kevin took a little more time, and it took him longer to realize why his brothers had burst out laughing.
“Looks like they don’t have purity rings in the 1800s, Kev, that’s why we weren’t there,” Joe said, high-fiving Nick. Kevin smacked them.
“Fine, no more about me,” he said, laughing. “Joe, you find one.”
Joe looked around and saw the summary, “Joe sat in a chair, his ankles chained to the front two legs of the aforementioned chair. His arms were strained behind his back and his wrists were handcuffed together.” Thinking he would be doing something pretty cool in this one, he of course clicked on it.
The boys finished the story, their mouths wide open.
“Never mention this again?” Kevin asked, closing the laptop slowly.
“Yup,” the two boys agreed.
A FEW DAYS LATER
“Nick, what are you doing?” Joe asked, walking into his room.
“Nothing!” he replied quickly, covering the screen with both his hands.
“Let me look,” Joe said, shoving Nick off the chair and ignoring his moan of pain. He saw the page of writing and turned to him. “Don’t tell me you’ve been on Fan fiction again. I thought we agreed never again, after that one story.”
“Yeah, but…well…Me and that Gavin person were too damn cute, and then that girl wrote all of these one shots, and they’re really good!” He looked down, pink in the cheeks. “Could I – show you some?”
Joe allowed himself a grin. “Fine, but just this once. And don’t tell Kevin.”
Nick popped some of the stories up. The first told of a traumatic car crash. “See, you help me, Joe. You rescue me. And I know you’d do that in real life, too,” Nick said, exiting to open another.
“And in this one, you shoot yourself to kill the guy holding you…so I can go free.” He quickly changed to another story. “And this…I’m marrying someone, and you just want to be that one. You wish all this stuff, good, for me.”
“Nick, why are you showing me all of these?” Joe asked, honestly confused and Nick’s sudden interest.
“Well…these stories…made me see…Joe, we really would be a great couple…and…”
Joe silenced him, by bringing his brother into a heartfelt kiss. “Oh Nick, I’m so glad you feel that way, because…”
“What?”
“I’ve been reading these too.”
They kissed again, a happiness in their eyes that had never been there before. Then with a smile, they turned back to the computer to read more stories labeled “Joick”.
“Remember, don’t tell Kev,” Joe said, laughing, not seeing the older boy watching them, a smile spreading across his face as well.
