Chapter 11
We have a ten song set and we just got done the first five songs, it feels so good after I stressful night to get up here and to perform.
“Thank you all for coming out tonight, I want to take this time to introduce ourselves Pure Harmony and our band. On drums Adam Bowler, on keyboards Steven Glover and on bass Jeff Steele. Give it up for them you guys.”
There was clapping and some whistling.
“I’m Mackenzie Steele on rhythm guitar.
Mackenzie said.
“And I’m Tori Gordon on lead guitar.”
“And I’m.”
I stopped mid sentence when I spotted Kevin and Joe walking into the room, crap what are they doing here? I watched them walk over to a booth in the back and saw them sit down, oh my god Nick was here the whole time. What do I do? Kevin’s eyes spotted me and he smiled. Crap, crap, crap. I started to panic not finishing my sentence.
“Camryn.”
Mackenzie whispered walking over to stand next to me.
“Oh huh and I’m Camryn Matthews and we are Pure Harmony.”
I walked over to stand behind Tori and grabbed a bottle of water off of the amp and whispered to Tori,
“Kevin and Joe just walked in, Nick was here the whole time.”
She turned to look at me and I nodded towards the back towards their booth. I walked back over to my mic stand and said,
“This next song is called ‘Flattery’. ”
"Flattery"
(I sang)
Please, don't flatter yourself
You're not the only one
This heart has ever felt
Please, don't exaggerate
Don't tell me you're okay, okay, okay..
(Tori, Mackenzie and I sang together)
I will admit, if you admit it
It's harder than we both thought
It's easier to fall apart
Look where we are (look where we are, look where we are)
I can forgive it, I can't forget it
You left me here with all these scars
and you can't deny the hardest part
I'm not in your arms
(Tori sang)
We're more hurt than we appear
The world will never know
We both have tasted tears, my dear
You're denying what I say
Don't act like it's okay
Cuz it's not okay
(Tori, Mackenzie and I sang together)
I will admit, if you admit it
It's harder than we both thought
It's easier to fall apart
Look where we are (look where we are, look where we are)
I can forgive it, I can't forget it
You left me here with all these scars
and you can't deny the hardest part
I'm not in your arms
(Tori and I sang)
It's not in the cards
(I sang)
It's not in the stars!
(I sang)
I'm not sorry, I'm not sorry
You're not sorry
(Tori sang)
I will admit, if you admit it
(I sang)
Just please, don't flatter yourself
Please, don't flatter yourself

There was clapping but even louder clapping and some whistling coming from the back I was surprised to see it was Kevin and Joe. Four songs later it was the song before our last and I debated on whether we should do it but we decided to do it.
“We couldn’t leave you without doing one cover song from our favorite band.”
I saw Nick, Joe and Kevin try to hide their faces making me chuckle, great now everyone thinks I’m crazy.
“Their three brothers that have become very popular and Mackenzie, Tori and myself are huge fans of theirs. Jonas Brothers, so we thought tonight we’d do one of their songs. Which one do you think Tori?”
“ ‘Hollywood’.”
Tori said.
“Mackenzie.”
I said turning to Mackenzie.
“ ‘Hollywood’.”
“ ‘Hollywood’ it is then, here’s ‘Hollywood’ by Jonas Brothers.”
Okay nerves calm down, just take deep breaths. The music started and it was like my nerves took a vacation the moment the music started. (All of Nick’s part Tori sings and all of Joe’s parts Camryn sings)
"Hollywood"
As time was ticking
We were winning
And it all was going as planned
Politicians stand between the lines
Of making headlines, street signs
Saying you're going the wrong way
Fading faster now
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
But the fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories cause we're gone
And don't forget to
Hold back your thoughts
And live like robots
Cause we all know what goes on
Reminisce on memories cause we're gone
We're gone, so gone
Fallen soldiers, all around us
But we're still standing strong
Embarrassing and contradicting
Cause now we're making headlines, primetime
Saying what a story!
Billboards, packed tours
Don't forget
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
But the fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories cause we're gone
And don't forget to
Hold back your thoughts
And live like robots
Cause we all know what goes on
Reminisce on memories cause we're gone
We're gone, so gone
And game over, you're done
Out of left field we won
Pack our bags
Yeah, we'll run
Hollywood here we come
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
But the fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories cause we're gone
And don't forget to
Hold back your thoughts
And live like robots
Cause we all know what goes on
Reminisce on memories cause we're gone
We're gone
You can try to break us
And make us fall apart
But the fires in our hearts
Reminisce on memories cause we're gone
We did our final song then walked back to the small area behind the stage. I started winging out this isn’t good Joe and Kevin are going to be so mad at Tori and I.
“Tori this isn’t good you know that right?”
I said pulling her aside.
“Cammie I think you’re over reacting.”
“We lied to them Tori, they had no clue we were in a band. They find out now and not from us telling them but by catching us in the act, do you realize what might be going through they’re heads?”
“No but I guess you do?”
I looked at Tori with don’t start look.
“No I don’t but I’m sure it isn’t good.”
A guy walked over to us and said,
“There’s two guys wanting to see you, they’re asking to come back here.”
Crap, I opened my mouth to say something but Tori beat me.
“You can let them back.”
“Tori do you realize that our relationship with these guys are over now. Why didn’t we just tell them? I’m sure they could tell that we weren’t using them, god we are in so much hot water right now. And what about Mackenzie she doesn’t know we’re dating them.”
Tori got this look on her face.
“You told her?”
“Yeah listen I’m sure their not mad if they were I don’t think they would have cheered the way they did after every song we did since they got here.”
“Kevin and me just got over a misunderstanding now he finds out that’s I’m in a band and didn’t tell him. We are so over and I don’t think I can handle that.”
Tori looked over my shoulder and smiled waving; I turn around to see Joe and Kevin practically running over to us. Joe ran over and picked Tori up and spun her around in his arms.
“You were great baby.”
He said causing Tori to give me her I told you so look. I smirked at her when I felt a pair of arms go around my waist picking me up and spinning me around.
“Camryn baby you were great.”
Kevin said then kissed me, hold the phone so he’s not mad. When we pulled away I looked at him and asked,
“Your not mad?”
“No why would I be mad?”
“Because I didn’t tell you that I was in a band.”
He leaned down and kissed me.
“I’m not mad.”
I smiled and kissed him.
“We didn’t tell you guys because we didn’t want you to think that we were using you to try and get into the music business. We were going to tell you just wanted to wait till you guys realized that we are with you for you not because of your fame.”
Tori said.
“I think we pretty much already know that.”
Kevin said wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me to his side, I wrapped my arm around his stomach and held onto him. Smiling up at him he smiled back down.
“Oh my Jonas so way.”
We heard Mackenzie say from behind us, we turn around to see her standing there with her jaw down to the floor.
“Kenzie.”
“Your Joe and Kevin Jonas.”
She said walking further towards us.
“Unless there are others yeah.”
Joe said extending his hand to Mackenzie shook his hand then Kevin’s.
“Why don’t you three join Nick, Brooke and us for dinner?”
Kevin suggested.
“Yeah we weren’t going to stay for dinner didn’t want to crash Nick’s date but Nick suggested it before we came back here.”
Joe said.
“Nick’s out there?”
Mackenzie said.
“Oh no here she goes.”
Tori said making me laugh.
“He has a date Kenzie so.”
I said.
“I won’t do anything you guys, what do you think I’m some sort of crazed fan girl?”
We looked at her.
“Okay so I’m a little crazed but I won’t do anything I promise. By the way Tori this makes up for not taking me in Cammie’s place to that concert.”
“You were out of town visiting your Grandparents.”
We all laughed and walked out to the front and walked towards Nick and Brooke, we made it to the table when Joe said,
“We’re back, Nick you know Tori. Brooke this my girlfriend Tori, Tori this is Nick’s girlfriend Brooke.”
Tori and Nick hugged earning a glare from Brooke.
“Nick this is Camryn, Camryn this Nick and his girlfriend Brooke.”
Kevin said, Nick stood up and hugged me earning me a glare from Brooke.
“Nice to finally meet the girl that has been keeping my big brother’s mind occupied.”
Nick said his eyes wonder to the back of me where Mackenzie is standing.
“Oh right sorry guys Brooke this is our friend Mackenzie.”
I said, Nick shook Mackenzie’s hand, I saw the look they were giving each other and I chuckled earning an elbow in my ribs from Tori. We sat down and had dinner Brooke was nice but she seems to get very jealous over the smallest of things, like whenever one of us said even more word to Nick she would glare at us especially at Mackenzie.
“You guys were great up there? How long have you been together?”
Nick asked.
“Two years.”
I answered.
“Mackenzie.”
We heard from behind us oh no I know that voice, Mackenzie’s over jealous boyfriend Matt. We turned around to see him standing behind us looking mad as all hell.
“Matt what are doing here?”
Mackenzie asked I got up letting her out of the booth.
“You were suppose to meet me at the movies half and hour ago and you weren’t answering your phone so I thought I come see if you were still here.”
“Excuse me guys, I’ll be right back.”
Mackenzie said grabbing Matt by the arm and leading him off.
“He looked mad.”
Joe said.
“He gets very jealous.”
I said.
“I hope she’s okay.”
Tori said making us all nod expect Brooke.
