Me and JB 64

My stomach churned. Oh dear god as Kevin would say. Joe in love with me? All I would need was Kevin and then I would have the whole trio to myself. Nick was enough for me.
“Jess?” Nick was waving his hands up in the air. “Hello?” I was zoning.
“Oh, sorry!” I said. I really was freaked out. I mean I thought I was pretty in all but Joe Jonas? He was almost four years older than me. Well, that didn’t matter. I just didn’t want to hurt him or Lauren. Then, I remembered. Oh, crap! Lauren!
“Nick?” I said.
“Yes?”
“He just thinks I’m cute in all. Right? He’s not in love with me. Is he?” I was getting all worried.
“I don’t know,” said Joe. My stomach knotted up. Then I looked outside. Joe was out of the pool peering in at me.
“I have to go,” I said. “See you later! Love you! Bye!”
“Wait!” Nick called after me. I was already sitting on my stoop. Joe Jonas, one of my best friends in the world, was in love with me? We had a HUGE age difference. I wasn’t in love with him but I didn’t want him to get hurt.
