"Jonah's old place," Jay and Kurt said.

"He brought every littke delinquent he knew there. Even me," Kurt tossed his red-brown hair out of his face. "I knew it better than anyone, even Jay."

Jay sighed, nodding. "It's true."

"Sure," Jay grinned. "that's fine."

Jennette pulled on Nicole's hair.

"Tell them I want to go home," Jennette hissed.

"Just let them take us wherever they want, Jen. It's not like we can do anything about it." Caleb mumbled.

"Stop talking about us behind our backs," Jay growled.

Jennette hissed at Jay, who only blinked at her. "Are you trying to intimidate me?"

Zooey tugged on Jennette's sleeve, and she shut up.

"No, you don't." Jay said, following Kurt into a dark building. "You definitely don't."

Inside, the place seemed pretty normal, unlike it was years ago. Jay and his friends came often, just to get away from life. But, Jay and Kurt where the only ones who went in Jonah's room, since they were the only ones that actually had known Jonah, besides Zooey.

The three kids sat down on a couch, glaring up at whoever was their "role model".

"Stop glaring, god." Kurt sat down on the couch opposite from the new teenagers. "You're all thirteen?"

They nodded.

"When I was eleven, I was like you guys. Came the time when I was thirteen, I was worse." Kurt chuckled. "Right now, I'm nineteen, and a senior in highschool." The kids' jaws dropped. "Don't *censored*ume anything; I didn't fail a grade. I was entered in kindergarten when I was six, so, yeah.

"Now, see, we're all pretty similar here. You guys have sucky parents, me and Jay have sucky parents." Kurt paused while they laughed quietly. "Anyway, our lives were just as bad as you guys' lives, and they still are. In fact, both me and Jay are pretty awful.

"We've been arrested a couple times, and together, at that, but somehow, we've always escaped being put in prison.

"Don't think you guys can get away with whatever you do like us. Jay and I are just good at getting out of trouble, like the rest of our friends. But, that doesn't mean we go looking for trouble. We just end up in a heap of it when we lie or something." He took a deep breath. "Anything to say, Jay?"

Jay shook his head. "Not really. You seem to have the whole thing covered." He looked over at Nicole. "How 'bout you?"

Nicole shook her head, "He should be one of those motivational speakers," She teased in a wisper.

( For the Rmail, Kyle will come from where? o.o )

( Out of room...? )

"He is," Jay whispered back. "Like me, in a way." He stayed silent while Kurt went on and on, and every-so-often, Jay added something to what Jay said.

"Your turn, Jay-bird," Kurt said, looking up at him with a smile.

"You're better than me at it now, though." Jay whined. "I don't want to look like a fool."

Kurt grabbed Jay's hand and pulled him over, and he started talking.

"Okay, so that's Kurt's story, in a way. My story is that, well, when my mother died, my father just stopped caring. Even now, I have no idea where my father is. For some reason, we haven't been kicked out of the house yet, and I think that's because my father is actually paying the bills for us, even though we don't see him.

"But, me and Zooey...We had a brother. He was...nineteen years old when I was thirteen, and he took care of Zooey, not me. I was convinced I didn't need anyone, and that I could manage well on my own. He often payed some of the bills of the house, along with his own. I thought it was stupid.

"Still, I loved my brother. If something was wrong, I could always count on him for a shoulder to cry on. He was a comfort to so many people, having such a kind heart and having gone through many things himself. I hated sharing my brother, but I lived with it. Jonah was an older brother to a lot of people, girls and boys.

"I was getting in trouble every day, and I thought it was funny when the cops took me down just to make sure I wasn't stealing anything. From time to time, I was taking something, but when I gave out that sob story of being an orphan, they let me go and often did something they thought would help me. And, in a way, I was an orphan. Me and my siblings were abandoned, basically. So, I was a delinquent who just loved to get in trouble, and so was Jonah, once.

"When my brother died, I met Kurt. We kept on with the delinquent act, despite everything that had happened. But, we don't get involved in bad things anymore. We're sort of growing out of it, I guess. Like Jonah. But, being a bad person isn't good, and that's why you guys were *censored*igned to us. We got out of our problems, and now we're going to help you guys get out of your's." Jay sighed, his breath shaking. "That's all I've got to say." He looked over at Nicole. "Your turn,"

( Lmao. xD )

"Alright," Jay shrugged, then hung his head. Both Jay and Kurt had their heads down, and Kurt was clutching Jay's hand so hard that his hand was twitching.

"Whenever Jay and Kurt talk about Jonah, they get really upset." Zooey whispered, taking Nicole's hand. "S-so do I..." Her voice broke, and she sniffled loudly.

"Kurt...you're hurting me." Jay said quietly, turning his head to Kurt. "Stop squeezing my hand so hard."

Kurt opened his eyes. "S-sorry...Just blame it on Jonah,"

Jay chuckled. "Right," he said.

Demetri sat down next to Kurt, and Caleb sat down next to Jay. Jennette stayed sitting on the couch, arms crossed.

And Zooey pulled away from Nicole. "It's fine," she said, sniffling again. "You didn't know Jonah, anyway." 

Jay stood up. "I'll be right back," he said, walking into another room.

"Follow him, if you want." Zooey said, shoving Nicole towards the other room. "I've got Jennette. I understand her better than you do,"

( Yesss.
I thought I told you that. o_o )

"No," Jay choked out. "I'm not, not really." He hid his face in his hands. "I-I'm sorry...I always get like this whenever I have to talk about Jonah. The mentioning of his name is bad, but literally talking about him..."

( Nu. )

Nicole bit her lip, glancing at Jay. "I'm sorry.." she said, the only think she couldthink of to say. "Do you want me to leave or..?" Her voice trailed off.
