Kevin kept looking me up and down as he got up from the couch. As soon as he stood up, his eyes locked with mine. He kept my eyes in a hold, his burning with passion. He slowly walked towards me. The way he was staring at me and walking towards me was so intense; I instinctively stepped backwards with each step he took forwards. Soon, I found myself up against a wall with Kevin still inching closer and closer. I looked down as he came within an inch of me. His hands cupped my cheeks and he pulled my head up so I was looking him in the eyes again. He stepped forwards, closing the inch of space that was between us. His hot breath moved across my lips and they tingled in response. His hands moved down my arms and our fingers intertwined. As he pulled my hands up by my head, his lips finally touched mine. He let go of my hands so he could pull me even closer. I moved my hands into his hair, pulling my fingers through his curls. The kiss we shared was full of more passion than ever before. It was as if all of our worries about the media, my baby, and our relationship came out through the kiss.
We moved back to the couch and I curled up against him. After a few short kisses, Kevin got up to get ready for dinner. Just as he went to the back of the bus, Nick and Joe burst through the bus’ door, full of energy and adrenaline from the radio interview. They had both run up the stairs to the kitchen area, but as they got near me, they both stopped short. “Holy cow! You look smokin’ hot!” Joe yelled.
“Hey there, Joe. Watch your mouth; she’s my girl!” Kevin yelled from the bathroom. We all started laughing, knowing that Joe’s comment was just him being…Joe.
Once Kevin returned from the bathroom, Joe ran to the back of the bus calling, “Shotey on the bathroom!”
Eventually, all the boys had finished getting ready and we headed out to meet Paul, Denise, and Frankie at the restaurant. The limo, which Kevin had ordered for us, pulled up to an upscale Italian restaurant. I looked out the window and immediately saw a few paparazzi standing outside the entrance to the restaurant. I shot Kevin a worried expression, which he returned. He asked the limo driver to pull around to the back of the restaurant while he called his father. “Dad, there are paparazzo outside.” I could hear mumbles of his father’s voice through the receiver before Kevin replied, “Ok. I’ll talk to her. Thanks, Dad.” After he hung up, he intertwined my hands with his and he put on his “this is serious” facial expression. “Babe, we’ve been dating for a while now, we’ve been through a lot. If you’re ready, we could make our relationship official to the public now. I’m not going to push you if you’re not comfortable with “coming out,” but I want you to know that I’m ready to let the world know that Paul Kevin Jonas II is happily dating Erin Marie Walsh, and has been for over a year.”
I looked into his eyes and knew he was serious about announcing our relationship. Deep down inside, I knew I was ready to be public, but there was one thing holding me back. “Kevin, I’m pregnant. The press will have a field day with this and you know everyone is going to say it is your child; that you broke your purity promise.”
His lips formed into a small smile, “I though you would be concerned about that. That is why, if you say yes, everyone is going to meet us out front and we’re going to tell the press the truth. We will tell them that you were raped, that we still haven’t caught the guy, and that we were dating long before any of this happened, and that we’re going to stick together as a family and turn a could-have-been tragedy into a blessing.”
I thought about what Kevin said for a minute. I never loved one person as much as I loved Kevin and I never felt so cared for when I was in his arms. I loved this man, and I knew, through thick and thin we would make it through. I truly believed that Kevin and I would be together forever. “Ok. We will announce our relationship to the press tonight. I think it is time the world knew about my love for you, Kev.”
A cheesy smile took over his face as he placed a sweet kiss on my lips. Breaking away, he pulled out his phone and informed his father that we were going to go through with it. He hug up and the driver brought the limo back to the front of the restaurant. The rest of the Jonas family greeted us as we stepped out of the limo. Kevin got out first and extended his hand to help me out. Kevin then wrapped his arm around my waist. Joe walked in front of us and Nick behind us. The camera bulbs began flashing and it seemed like more paparazzi appeared on the sidewalk. Questions were shouted to us left and right, and Kevin, sensing my nerves, wrapped his arm even tighter around me. “Kevin, is that your girlfriend?” “What’s her name?” “Over here! Look over here!” “When does the new album come out?” “Boys, can you record a message for E! News?” The last question perked the Jonas family and my interest. We walked over to the reporter, who looked ecstatic to see us. “Hi boys! Do you think you could do a quick spot for E! News?” the reporter cheerfully asked.
Kevin spoke up first, “Actually, we have some important information that we think you all at E! would enjoy.” The woman accepted excitedly, knowing this could be a big break in her career. “Well,” Kevin began, “I would first like to introduce you to my wonderful girlfriend, Erin. We’ve been dating for a while now. Actually, today is our one-year-and-four-month anniversary.”
“Oh wow! That is truly exciting! Congratulations!” the reporter said, seeming to suppress an excited scream. She looked at me and introduced herself as Kay before asking a question we all expected. She looked at my stomach, which was accented by the sequined dress, then back at me, before looking confused at Kevin. She looked at me again finally asking the question we were waiting to hear, “Uhm, excuse the question, please, but- uh- you’re not pregnant, are you?”
I smiled slightly and looked over to Kevin for support. He nodded his head slightly, encouraging me to explain the situation. “Actually, I am. About three months ago, while the guys were performing, I was raped. We haven’t found the man who did it, but luckily for me, Kevin has remained by my side this whole time and his entire family has supported me with everything. I’ve truly received a blessing from an otherwise horrible situation. And, no worries, Kevin hasn’t broken his purity promise,” I smiled at Kevin and he pulled me into a quick hug. The reporter looked shocked at what I told her, but she promised to relay the story accurately and wished me the best of luck. She also promised that the tape would not be edited in any way to twist the story. Denise, the boys, and I walked into the restaurant, leaving Paul to thank Kay for being so understanding in the difficult situation.
Everyone ordered fabulous meals and, for the first time ever, the conversation at the table actually lulled when the food came out. Even though I was stuffed after dinner, Kevin insisted that we order a dessert to share. The server took our order and quickly returned with the decadent cake. As she placed the cake in front of me, I saw Kevin get up. I turned to ask him where he was going, but what I saw caused my mouth to drop open.
