Here I was lying in my bed. I was alone, like usually. Jake was away on business, yet again. I rolled over so I could face the clock. It now read 3 A.M. My stomach growled, I decided to get some food seeing I wasn't going to fall asleep anyways. I tip toed downstairs carefully making sure I wouldn't wake Charlie. I didn't bother to turn on the kitchen lights. I walked slowly and then carefully opened up the fridge. The light coming from the fridge hurt my eyes. After my eyes got use to the light I looked around for something to eat.

My eyes found some left over pizza from yesterday. I took a slice, and sat down at the kitchen table. I loved the taste of cold pizza. I sat there in silence taking small bites of my pizza. Now at the age of 26 I was married with a son. I married Jake Ryan at age 20. I wanted to graduate college, but Jake insisted that his job would take care of us. Not to long after our honeymoon I became pregnant with Charlie, who was now five years old. I love Jake, I really do, but sometimes I wonder what would have happened if…

"Mommy?" Charlie asked turning on the kitchen lights. Charlie had my blue eyes and his father's blonde hair. I watched him walk over to me, he had his teddy bear in one hand. The other hand was currently rubbing his eyes.

"Charlie what are you doing up at this time?" I asked a little concerned. He sat on my lap and took a bite of my pizza.

"I had another nightmare. The ones when the clowns chase me." He said chewing the piece pizza. I sighed, Charlie has been having this same nightmare since he was four. He began to cuddle up in my arms and then yawned.

"You know Charlie I know clowns are creepy, but I promise I'll never let a clown hurt you." I said rubbing his back as he yawned again. I felt him nod his head.

"Where's daddy?" He asked. I frowned, Jake was never home enough. He missed Charlie's 1st, 3rd, and 4th birthday party. He missed the day he lost his first tooth and the day he road without training wheels, which was a couple of days ago.

"He's at a meeting in New York." I said now carrying Charlie back upstairs to his bedroom.

"Is New York close to Malibu?" Charlie asked sounding tired. I carefully laid him down on his bed.

"No it's on the other side of the country." I said while tucking him in. I stayed there until I knew he was asleep. I gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and left. I went back downstairs to finish cleaning up the mess.

I frowned, I didn't want to be this. I didn't want to be a house wife that cleaned up after everyone. When I got pregnant, Hannah was forced to end her career, mostly by Jake. I just wanted to take a break during the pregnancy but Jake insisted that I needed to take care of the baby. I missed singing, a lot. But Jake doesn't know. He's never around long enough. The only person I had left was Charlie , I wouldn't trade him for the world. But mostly I missed Lilly. She moved away with Oliver after they married. I haven't talked to her since. I'm to blame for that.


Lilly P.O.V.

"Oliver, do we really need to move back to Malibu?" I whined. I liked it in Florida, I never wanted to go back to California. I finally got over her. I never wanted to see her again.

"Come on Lilly, Malibu is a great place to raise little Jack." Oliver said rubbing Jack's head playfully. "You really do need a haircut son."

"Dad, I like my hair like this." Jack said moving his hand through his hair. He had my blue eyes and blonde hair.

"But he already has friends here!" I exclaimed.

"Lilly, he's only five it's not like he has a best friend. I don't know why your so against moving back there. Both of our families are there, and it's were we grew up." He said.

"True…" I said. Maybe Miley moved out of Malibu. "What about a home? How are we going to find a cheap one? They cost a lot these days."

"Well here's the good news. A couple of days ago I ran into Jake at the airport, he was on a business trip to New York. So we began to talk and told me there was a house right next to his that was on sale. So I made him a few deals, seeing I work in the airline industry, and got him a bunch of good deals. So he gave us a great offer on the house!" Oliver said happily.

"What! I don't even know what the house looks like." I yelled in disbelief. Oliver quickly whipped out pictures. I couldn't argue with these pictures, the house was beautiful. It has a spacious backyard even with the in ground pool.

"But… but Jack…yeah Jack how do you feel about this?" I asked my five year old son.

"The house has an in ground pool! Obviously I'd want to move there. Our backyard is no bigger than my room." Jack said sounding excited.

"Fine we'll move there." I said in defeat.

"And you get to see Miley again! You two get to be neighbors." Oliver said excitedly.

Great just great…


Okay well I had this idea for awhile and decided to put it up. I know I have my other story, and it will come before this one. So you'll have to be pacient with the updates, sorry. I don't really know where this story is going to go, it may be long or short. But it will be bumped up M for later chapters. Future chapters will be longer, this one is just to start things off. The main pairings will be Liley, Jiley, and Loliver. Also with other pairings, but there are minor ones. Anyways let me know what you think...
