I have no excuse for this one- it just happened.

Disclaimer: I would love to- but no I do not own JONAS. Nor am I clever enough to swindle Disney out of the rights.

Macy paced in front of the dumpster. She was pretty sure that this was creepy- not as creepy as hiding in an amp case just to see the boys on their concert when she couldn't afford a backstage pass (this was before she knew them).

Wait it might be just as creepy.

She had never crossed the line into JONAS snot though, she stopped herself at mucus. Admittedly she did almost fish out Joe's discarded Kleenex two weeks ago.

This was why they saw her as nothing more than a fan! She did crazy things like this.

Macy's arms stiffened at her sides and she held her head high as she marched away, 10 feet later she was running back to the dumpster.

The boys rarely went to a barber shop to get their hair cut- they usually had their mom do it, or had a stylist come out and cut it at the firehouse if they really wanted. Macy decided she would figure out the creepiness factor later when she had the priceless curls in her hands. Nick had grown his hair considerably long and she heard him mention to Stella that he was going to cut it short again. They really made it easy- even mentioning the barbershop they were going to and when (then again they weren't able to see her at the time, since well- she was hiding). Macy knew that this was her chance.

This operation had involved a lot of prep work. She went to the shop beforehand to scope out the place- get the lay of the land to check to see where they disposed the cut hair (2nd dumpster from the left). It was a traditional barbershop, the one the boys had been going to since they were children.

She even went when the boys were getting their hair cut. She wore a blond wig with a hat, even going so far as to wear make up to change her skin tone. They politely smiled at her- but clearly did not recognize her and she did nothing to imply that she was a fan. She made a note of what bag their hair ended up in and kept her eye on it the entire time. She followed it to the dumpster and was currently pacing in front of it, wondering if this was going too far.

Too far was stealing samples and making clones of them. She didn't have that kind of money- so this wasn't too far. Hmmm… clones… Now that was thinking big, and possibly illegal.

Macy satisfied with her conclusion, grabbed the bag and took off. Her eyes darting around as she dashed to her car.

At home she carefully sifted through the contents and found the perfect specimen. She couldn't locate Kevin or Joe's they had only gotten a trim and her JONAS senses weren't that good, but Macy could recognize Nick's curls anywhere. Even in a trash bag full of discarded hair. Macy placed the locks in a baggie; she added a sample to her book of Nick and another to her JONAS scrapbook.

No one ever looked at these but her- so no one would ever know. She smiled.

Perfection.

"Macy?" She turned and saw Stella directly behind her- she held DVD cases and a bag of gummy worms. Stella's eyes saw everything, the open scrapbooks with Nick's hair, (and the large labels declaring it) the garbage bag next to Macy, full of the barbershop hair. She even saw the tweezers and potential hair clippings that rested on a flat piece of paper next to the scrapbooks.

Macy was glad that at least Stella didn't see wearing that ridiculous wig and make up. Stella's eyes wandered to her desk where she had thrown the wig and hat.

Crap.

"Wow Macy." Stella finally said, eyebrows srunched "you are really intense."

I was making an icon- and I found myself just staring at Nick's hair- really, I am so jealous of his and Kevin's hair- my hair is unrelentingly straight.

I felt that Macy would relate. Don't you think?
