Robby Ray was downstairs in the kitchen making breakfast when the phone rang. He licked his fingers and picked up the phone. "Hello?" On the other line was Lilly. "Landing in 10!" He walked over to the door and opened it. Lilly skateboarded in, stopped, and then kicked her board up into her hands. She put it by the sofa.
"Hey Mr. Stewart! Miley still in bed?" Robby went back into the kitchen and put some pancakes and eggs on two plates. "I think so. Her alarm should go off soon." Lilly sat down on a barstool and took one of the plates.

BUZZ! Scared, with my heart pounding fast, I woke up. Slowly opening my eyes I turned over and turned off my new alarm clock. It had been one of dad great ideas to help me wake up in the morning. I got up and walked into the bathroom.
Still half asleep I turned the shower on and got in. Not only did I have my pajama's on, but the water was cold. It felt like I had just jumped into a pool of ice. My eyes jolted open and I started screaming. Trying to quickly get out of the shower I slipped, hitting my head on the tile floor. Pain shot through my head, and I just stayed on the floor.
I heard Lilly and my dad run upstairs then opened the bathroom door. "Oh my God! Miley…are you okay?" She said. My dad, Robby Ray, helped me up. "You gotta be more careful, bud." I rubbed my head then replied, "I know, but I was up late last night…studying. So this morning I was tired. Plus, it doesn't help that Jackson used all the hot water." Lilly looked like she was thinking then said, "Miley, you weren't studying last nigh-"
I interrupted her. "Well, I was but then I started…reading. And so when you called I was not studying." I gave her my 'shut up' face. I guess she understood it because she nodded with that 'I get it' look to me. "Okay. That would explain while I thought you were reading and not studying. My bad." She winked at me and looked at my dad. "I'm going to go eat now."
She said as if she was trying to find a way out. As she left my dad started talking again. "Well, go head and get ready. You don't wanna be late." Right as he was walking out he turned back to face me. "And why were you on the phone past 10:30 last night?" I looked to the left and then right. "Lilly needed to ask me, um, what time was the pep rally Friday?" I lied. "Okay." He said then left. I closed the bathroom door, took my clothes off, and got in the shower.
