*Hola! New story! :D i was thinking of this when i was writing St. James, which is weird 'cause it has nothing to do with the story. Anyway, so this one is something i wanted to try. I know you've read stories like this but i always wanted to try it. Plus, it's going to be different, a lot different! so i hope you enjoy!
P.S.-This story will mainly be in Nick or Miley's POV but in some chapters, Joe and Demi will be included.. :]
Enjoy!
If someone kept a secret, a really big secret, and they didn't tell the person who was responsible for half the secret, is it still right to keep it from them? Because that's what I've been going through for a year. Ok yeah, im 19 and young, but, some secrets are meant to be secrets, like this one for example. I've been keeping it for a year and so far, no one has even questioned it. I currently moved from LA to Florida. The only reason I picked Florida is because I think it's one of the nicest place; well, from where I live, Miami. It's amazing, and I wouldn't doubt it for a second.
"Demi, where's Izy's blanket?" I ask my best friend who moved in with me after graduation last year. Izy, or Isabella, is my daughter, my 4 month old daughter. That's the big secret I've kept for a year; being pregnant and having a baby girl. Isabella Marie Grey. She looks exactly like her dad, same curly brown hair, same chocolate brown orbs, mouth, and nose, just everything. I left after Nick, her dad, and I had this huge fight. I didn't know I was pregnant until a month later, and things didn't get any better. So I left, I haven't spoken to him since then.
"Did you check your room?" I think for a second and something in my head triggers. How can I forget; I put it in my dresser last night. I walk into my room and check the drawer I left it in. There it is! As if right on cew, I hear the cry's of my baby girl, right in the next room. I grab the blanket and run to my baby girl's room. I step inside and hurry up to her.
"Hey, hey; mommy's here," I pick her up gently, and rock her in my arms. She finally relaxes but stays awake, with her big brown eyes staring right into me. This is defiantly Nick's daughter. As I stare into her eyes, I can't help but think that' she's trying to tell me something, like she knows somethings missing in her and my life.
"So what time does Joe's plane land?" Demi asks as she pulls into the high way that leads to the airport. Joe is Nick's older brother. No, he didn't tell Nick, I literally begged him not to tell. He's been extremely supportive and I don't know how to thank him enough. He's coming to visit Izy and us of course, but mostly her. The last time he saw her, she was only a week old, now she's 4 months old; time flies!
"Um… it should have landed like 20 minutes ago," I giggle. I wonder if Joe has been waiting a long time. I turn my head to look at the little girl who's just staring right back at me.
"You know, I never know why she just stares at you," Demi says looking through the rear view mirror. "She just stares, and stares, like…like she knows something's missing in her and your life," ok, is Demi a mind reader or something?
"I know, it's like she's trying to tell me something," I look back over as Izy who is still looking at me. I smile at her, and hold her little hand. A small smile appears on her face as she tightens her grip on my finger.
"I love you," I tell her. She smiles again and looks deeper into my eyes. I really do Izy; I love you so much; I'd give up my life, to save yours.
"Here we are, and there's Joe, looking pissed," she says, laughing and pulling over. "Thanks for making me wait here!" Joe grumbles getting in the back seat with me and Izy.
"Miles," he says, looking down at Izy. "What?" I asked confused. I look down and find Izy looking over at Joe with a smile planted on her face.
"That's not your daughter!" he says, his mouth open, and his eyes widen. What is he talking about; I'd know my own daughter.
"Yes it is?" I say, still very confused. "No, your daughter is this small," he demonstrates with his hands and separating them apart.
"Well, she grew!" I growled playfully, with giggles escaping my lips. "Oh my God, she grew so much," Joe says, tickling her stomach, making Izy show off her amazing smile.
"She looks so much like," he says, trailing off, trying not to touch the subject.
"It's alright, and I know exactly like him it's freaking scary!" I say giggling and looking back down at Izy. I look back at Joe who is deep in thought. I wonder what he's thinking about. He looks lost in thought and his face expression is happy scared, hopeful, and sincere.
"What are you thinking about?" I ask. His head snaps and his eyes looked worried and even more scared. Then, his face relaxes and he looks down at Izy.
"Um, nothing, just um, how uh, how beautiful she looks," he stutters. I wonder what's going on in that thick of his.
Joe's POV
I wonder what Nick would say when he sees her. Would he know it's his kid, well how can he not know, this kid looks exactly like him! What if he gets scared and just runs away, leaving Miley with a broken heart? Oh my God, this was the worst idea! 1. I can't stand to see my little 'sister' with a broken heart, 2. I don't want to his face when he finds out that this is actually his kid!
"What are you thinking about?" I hear a soft voice whisper next to me. Well obviously it's not Izy, she's a four month old baby! I feel my head snap up, busted! Was I talking while thinking; do you think Demi told her? Wait, Joe relax, she doesn't know anything and Demi won't tell her, because, well I just know! I look down at Izy and smile. This plan might, just please God, might work!
"Um, nothing, just um, how uh, how beautiful she looks," I stutter. Smart Joe, real smart! She's probably wondering if there's something wrong with me!
"So Demi" I change the subject. "How was school?" I ask. She looks in the rear view mirror as to tell her what I was thinking about later. I nod, and she looks back at the road, sighing, then laughing.
"Good, sophomore year this year!" she squeals, griping onto the steering wheel more. I chuckle and shake my head. Oh, Demi.
"Im going to go put Izy for a nap, I think I'll catch up on one too, im knocked out!" Miley says smiling at both of us. Miley's smile is defiantly different, she doesn't smile like she used to when she was in grade school or in middle school or in any of the schools! I can tell she forces a smile, and I know she's dying inside, she just doesn't want anyone to know it.
"What were you think about?" Demi asks, sitting on the couch next to me. I smile and bring her closer to me, sitting her up on my lap, with her head resting on my chest.
"What if this was a big mistake?" I tell her. She looks up at me then sighs and nods. "I know, I was thinking that same thing. But, he needs to know, even if it is a 'coincidence' you know," She laughs, putting air quotes around coincidence.
"Yeah, so I got reservations at the Hilton, the one a couple of blocks from here." She nods then starts playing with her hands.
"Alright, so, um was it hard to convince him to come?" I nod my head furiously and laugh.
"Let's just say, it wasn't pretty," she chuckles then looks down again. "How's she been?" I ask, look down and kissing her temple.
"Honest, awful. When I came home from school, I would walk into her room and find her with Izy on her chest and puffy red eyes. Usually when I took care of Izy, I would here her cry herself to sleep. Even if she doesn't want to admit it, she thinks of him every day," oh Miley, if you only knew.
"What about Nick?" she ask moments later. What is there to say that she hasn't said about Miley? "Well, pretty much the same, except the Izy part," I chuckle. "She would come home, lock himself in his room; he would only come down for dinner. He would eat a bit, and then go back upstairs. When I asked him to go on vacation he flipped. I finally convinced him to come, but he wasn't too thrilled about it." she nods and looks back down. I could tell, tomorrow's gonna be a rough day.
