Chapter 1

My first ever co-write with Madeline 2011!

Miley's POV

I sing the last note of my hometown show. I go off stage to see my Mom waiting for me with a huge bouquet of flowers.

"You did amazing Hannah! Come over here and give me a hug." Mom says.

I go over to my Mom and I pull her into a huge hug.

"Miley you did such a great job!" Mom says in my ear.

We get into my limo and we take different back roads. I take off my Hannah wig and I feel tired and weak. We pull up to the house and I say Good Night to my family and I try with lots of effort. I make it to my bed and I crash.

Suzanna's POV

"Suzanna is it just me, or did Miley seem sick to you?" Billy asks.

"No. She's just tired. She always sings Best of Both Worlds but instead she sang Rock star instead besides that I didn't notice anything wrong." I tell him.

"Alright, I'm going to bed. Goodnight." He says as he gives me a kiss.

"I wish you could have came tonight." I tell him.

"Someone had to stay and make sure Jackson and Noah did their homework. Good night Suzanna." Billy says as he kisses me and we both go upstairs.

The next day

Miley's POV

"Miley, Time to get up for school." Mom says as she wakes me up.

I groan.

"Mom, I don't feel good. I'm too tired." I tell her.

"Miles, you haven't gone to school in the past two days. It's time to get up and ready for school." Mom explains.

"But Mom! I really don't want to." I tell her.

"Ok, Your Dad is going to drive your little sister to school you better get out of bed and dressed for the day while I get breakfast on the table!" She states as she closes my door.

I get out of bed with a lot of effort. I feel a lot of pains in my legs. It must be growing pains. I get into some sweat pants and a t-shirt, I'm too tired to pay attention to what I am wearing. I head downstairs with my backpack. I sit down at the table, but I'm not hungry. I guess I'm skipping breakfast again today. I pack a light lunch and I shove it into my backpack.

"Oh Miles, you all ready for school?" Dad asks.

"Sure am Dad." I fake as I struggle to get into Dad's truck.

Jackson is already in the back seat.

"You decided to stop faking sick today Miley?" Jackson asks.

"Jackson, shut up! Your voice is too loud. It's making my head hurt." I tell him.

He gives me a little punch.

"OWW!" I scream.

"Miley, stop being such a drama queen! I didn't punch you that hard." Jackson says.

I look at my arm and see I have a few bruises where Jackson punched me.

"Alright, I'll come pick you up when school ends." Dad says as we both get out of the car.

Jackson goes off with his friends and I go to my locker. I see the usual note on my locker.

Miles

Where have you been? Meet me and Oliver at lunch. We haven't seen you in a while.

Lily

I have been avoiding lunch. I'm never really hungry at lunch so I just stay in my class with my head down on my desk. I tell my teacher it's a headache, but really it's because I am so tired. I really don't know why. I sleep at night, but I always feel tired, even after 13 hours of sleep. I get to my first class and I see my teacher is looking at me carefully.

"Yes Sir?" I ask.

"Miley, did you come here just for the test today? You look really pale and tired." The teacher says.

"Umm No sir. I'm here for the day." I tell him.

"Alright then. Everyone get out your pens and papers, we are going to start with our algebra test." The teacher says.

I start writing my test and I get through half of it when I start feeling really tired and the pains in my legs are getting worse.

"Sir, can I go to the Nurse's office. I feel really sick." I tell him.

"Alright. Do you want someone to go with you?" He asks.

I just nod. Lily gets out of her seat and helps me to the nurse's office.

Mr Ryan's POV

I watch as the girls leave the room. I can tell something is wrong with Miley. No one can be that pale and be ok. I know I have to stay and watch my class, but I do want to know what's wrong with Miley. It must be something serious since Lily took Miley's backpack.

Jackson's POV

I go down the hall to go to the bathroom when I see Lily helping Miley to go somewhere. I rush over.

"What's wrong?" I ask sounding quite concerned.

"Miley felt really sick, so I'm taking her to the Nurse's office." Lily explains.

"Lily, you go back to class, I'll take her." I say to Lily as I take Miley's arm.

"What's wrong Miles?" I ask.

She doesn't answer. We get to the Nurse's office.

"Miley, are you ok?" Nurse Hanson asks.

Miley just shakes her head.

"Alright sit on the table. Jackson, just wait outside." Nurse Hanson says.

I go outside and wait in the uncomfortable chairs. I honestly can't get comfortable. After what feels like hours, Nurse Hanson comes out of her office.

"Jackson, can you please call your Mom and Dad? Tell them it's extremely important that Miley gets to The Grace Hospital for Kids and Teens as soon as possible." She states.

"What's wrong with her?" I ask.

"I honestly wish I could tell you, but I'm not sure it is what I think it is?" She says.

I grab my phone out of my pocket and I dial Mom's number.

"Mom! Come to school quick! There is something wrong with Miley!" I say quickly.

"Jackson honey, slow down and say what you said again." Mom says in her gentle calming voice.

"Miley is really sick at school. Nurse Hanson thinks it's really serious!" I tell her.

"Alright. I'll call your father and he will pick up Noah and me on the way. I'll call him right now, don't panic and try to stay calm" Mom says.

Noah's POV

I'm sitting at my desk minding my own business reading my novel for our little book reports, when I get called down to the office. I get down to the office and I see my Mom and my Dad there.

"Mom? Dad? What are you doing here?" I ask.

"We are taking you out of school early today." Dad says.

"Go get your bag sweet heart." Mom says.

I rush back to my classroom and I grab my bag and I leave with Mom and Dad. Why am I leaving school? Mom and Dad would never take me out of school unless it was serious.

Jackson's POV

Quickly Dad comes in and carries her into the front of the car. I rush ahead of them to open the doors.

"Dad! What's wrong with Miley?" Noah asks.

"Nothing Noah. Miley is just slow getting over a cold." Dad states trying to keep her calm.

"Billy. It's all my fault! I never should have made her go to school! Billy why was I so stupid!" Mom says as she puts her hands through her hair.

"Mom Calm down! Everything is going to be fine! You did nothing wrong." I tell her.

"But I was the one who sent her to school today! Why didn't I just keep her at home!" Mom says trying not to cry.

"Mom don't worry! Everything Will be ok." I tell her as we all get out of the car and into the hospital waiting room.
