Jesse POV
I walked into my tour bus after a concert and Meet & Greet..I was exhausted..I sat down on one of the couches and pulled my phone out,looking through it to see if my girlfriend or if anybody had called..Turns out,my mom called,once,Lea my sister,twice,and Greg my bestfriend..Oh..And Alissa Matthews,my girl-bestfriend..I was 17,turning 18 in about 3 monthes,and was going home in 2 days.I couldn't wait to get back to Ardsley...I missed home!...I decided to call Alissa,first and let her know how it went..Ring..Ring..Rin-"Hey,J!.How was it?".I smiled and laughed..I knew Liss missed me as much as i did her.."Hey,Liss!..It went good,no crazies this time.."."Haha!..Thats good..So,when are ya coming home?..Everybody misses you!".I sighed lightly.."In 2 days!..Hey,can i ask you something,Liss?".Liss laughed..I knew i didn't have to ask."Sure,Jess..What?"."Hows Katie?..I haven't heard from her tonight,just wondered if you did?".I heard Liss sigh..Whenever Liss did this,it meant she didn't want to tell me something.."Liss..Tell me"."No,J..Sorry..I thought she was calling you earlier..I ran into her after school,and she said she'd call you..Guess not".I sighed..I finished the call with Liss and went and called Lea..She was already in bed,so i left her a quick message..Then i got into bed,and grabbed my phone..I sent a quick text to Katie,saying..'Nite baby!..I'm coming home in 2 days!..Call me,Katie!I miss you!..Luve U!'.I sent the text and went to sleep..The next morning,Melissa,my 2nd backup dancer/singer,woke me up..I turned over and glared at her.."Jesse McCartney!Get your *** out of that bed!".I rolled my eyes and got up...I had an interview and signing and then have to start packing to go home..We arrive at the interview place 20mins early,so i've got time to call Katie..I hit the number 2 for Katie's speeddial..Its ringing and ringing..Come on Katie!.Katie finally picks up.."Hello?".I smile..I really miss her.."Hey,babe!..Whats up?".I hear her breath slightly catch as realizes who it is.."Jesse?.Hey!..I'm sorry i'm haven't called,Jesse..I've umm,been..Busy".I frown at the short pause but don't give any thought to it though.."Oh,okay baby..Well,i'm at an interview then off to a signing,then i gotta pack to come..Home!".I hear her gasp.."Yo-your coming h-home?"."Yep!..why don't you want me to,baby?".I could hear someone in the background,but just figured it was one of her friends.."Umm..No of course,babe!..Just a little caught offgaurd!...Of course i'm happy!..Hey i gott-gotta g-go!..Ha.Stop!..Bye Jess!".I could hear her laughing and giggling and Katie never giggles that much...Before i can say anything,she hangs up!...I frown,then slide my phone into my pocket and head into the interview...30mins later,i comeout and head into the signing..I see a bunch of teenage and pre-teens waiting...I smile and greet them...One of them comes up and says "Hi!..".I force a smile and say back.."Hi..I'm Jesse..Whats your name?".She squeels and i resort to biting my lip..(nervous habit)..She hands me a picture of when i was 15 maybe 16,and says.."Its Shawna".I nod,and go through about another 40 girls..At the last one,this really pretty one steps up..She has medium Brown hair,with blond highlights,its about mid shoulder length,and her bodys slender,but not skinny but not fat either...But she had sunglasses on,a dark shade of red,kinda like the ones i had gotten for Alissa for her birthday last yr..I ask."Hi..Whats your name?".The girl hands me a picture,of me and Liss,probably one from a magazine,and as i'm going to sign it,she takes off her shades..Just as i'm looking to ask her hername,she says "Its Alissa".I knew that voice anywhere!..I look up,and into Liss' sweet milk choco;ate eyes!..I gasp,then say."Liss!!.What are you doing here?!".Liss laughs that laugh and smile i love..Whoa..Where did that come from?!...And says."I wanted to surprise you,J!..Did I?".I motion for her to come around behind the table,motion the gaurds not to stop her,and when she gets behind the table,i hug her to death..She laughes and says."I've missed you to,Jess!..".I let go of her,sign a few more loose posters,and get ready to leave..I motion for Liss to follow me,and we head back onto the bus..After we get in,and get her settled,we sit down on the couch..She sits on the couch with me,i pull her into my lap,putting my hand around her waist,and tickle her..She laughes and starts doing it back...We've done since..well..forever!..We met in Kindergarden,and we're inseperable since...We both hated being away from eachother..It sucked...But the thing is is that,she's my bestfriend..She's there whenever i needed her,whenever i'm having a hard time..And i'm always there for her...We've always had eachothers backs!..No matter what!..Thats what i loved..And what i loved and love about her is her sense of humor,and how she can still stick by me even when i'm gone so often...I've never admitted this,especially since i've got Katie now but..Well,i think i've even started to love her even as more than just as my bestfriend..I doubt she does though..But anyway...
