Give Me A Sign
Thirty-Three
Jack's POV:
We get to their apartment, small but cozy. But thats all you need when its only two people living together. Nyssa takes me to her room and when I walked in it was kind of what I was expecting her room to be. Her walls were a light purple, and covered in posters and stuff. One part had small posters of us from a AP magazine, a concert ticket tacked to the wall with it, and two magazine posters of the past two US tours.
Another wall had a All American Rejects, a poster of us that was a few years old, Sleeping With Sirens, Pierce The Veil, and two Playlist Live posters from two different years. Another wall had a bunch of drawings. A lot were of bands, and others were some people I never heard of. And another wall had high school and college graduation stuff on it. And some art work on her bookshelf that was filled with books, CDs and movies.
In a way, the room was meant for a young teenager. But Nyssa was innocent like one in a way, so the room fit her perfectly. There was even a stereo with a iPod docking station on it.
"Whats Playlist Live?" "A YouTube convention, its so much fun I love it. And these drawings are of some YouTubers. I don't have some now because I met the YouTubers I drew and gave it to them." I look at the wall with the small AP posters, and saw the concert ticket was from our fall 2012 tour. "When was your first time seeing us Nyssa?" "In the fall." "You waited that long to see us?" She goes quiet, "I didn't have a choice." "What do you mean?"
She looks down and I hug her tightly. "Its fine, you don't have to tell me." "I never even been to warped tour," she mumbles into my chest. "I have my ticket for this years, but now I can no longer go. Bonnie was gonna take me to my first warped tour at the end of July." Oh yeah, she's gonna be with us in the UK.
I see a jar that had 2013 painted on it with pink and yellow and a lid made out of tin foil that had a hole in it. "Whats this?" "My 2013 jar, every happy moment I have, I write it down with the date and put it in." I see a notebook and grab it, then I find a pen. "What you doing?" "We're adding to your jar." I sit on her bed and she sits with me. We write down everything that happened since we first met. Since to much happened on the day we met, we just wrote down the date. She'll know what it was.
When we were finished, we had over 30 little notes ready to go in her jar. She takes the lid off and we stuff the notes in her jar and put the lid back on. I look around her room more, "I didn't know you liked drawing and art." "The art was done in art club and a art class when I was senior. But the drawings, I do videos on to." She was really good. But she had something painted on her wall.
I walk over to it and push back a drawing that was hanging by one piece of tape. "Jack-" In black paint was her hand writing 'Drawings Done By a Dyspraxic'. I look at her and she was looking down. "Dr-drawing is supposed to be really difficult for someone like me." I lift her chin and kiss her gently, "I love them."
We hear a scream come from Bonnie's room and we run out to hers. Alex was holding her tightly and they were both crying. Alex picks her up and spins her around. "Alex be careful!," Nyssa cuts in. Alex sets Bonnie down on her feet and they kiss. "Why did you scream Bonnie?" Bonnie smiles at Nyssa and holds up her hand, showing a new ring. I smile to myself, Alex proposed to Bonnie.
"Oh my god!!!," Nyssa screams and hugs Bonnie tightly.

We were sitting in their living room, we went out and got Jersey Mike's subs for dinner and came back. The radio was playing and we were eating, a little to busy to talk. "I'm so happy for you Bonnie," Nyssa smiles brightly at her. Bonnie returns the smile and looks up at Alex. I never thought that I would see the day when Alex would find the one. We all thought that he would stick with Lisa one day and end up marrying her. Which I think all of us are glad that he's not.
"So what are we doing tomorrow girls?," Alex asks. "Well, I'm going to take you around Orlando, Alex." "Sounds fun." "What we doing Nyssa?" She grabs my hand, "I'm gonna show you where I grew up after I moved from Maryland. And you made me a promise." "That I would meet your parents," I smile to her. "Yeah."
