So this is a test. Would anybody actually enjoy reading a Miam story? I really want to write this and it's all planned out and truthfully, I think you will find some enjoyment and warm fuzzy feelings come out of it if everybody just forgets the fact that it is not a niley story. It's sort of.. "Eat, Pray, Love" meets the movie "Away We Go". Read the summary first so the trailer is less confusing and make sure you play the song "Brooklyn Blurs" during the trailer, along with the lyrics written.

Summary
It is December 2010 and Miley is now 18, Liam is 20. After being separated for a few months of filming their new movies, they have moved into Miley's new home that she bought to live in when she turned eighteen. Their relationship, despite the separation, is still going strong with little tension or difficulties- they are very much so in love. However now that Miley has become at ease with her transition into a more mature artist, she is uncertain as to what her place in this world is and if there is anything beyond her fame and career. She craves a break from Los Angeles, the bitter media, and yearns for adventure and experience. This desire heightens when she sits down and reads "Eat, Pray, Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert and suddenly she must see the world through a different set of eyes- eyes other than those of a superstar. So her and Liam pack up the car and leave on a whim, driving towards an open world of global travel, culture, and adventure. This is a story of self-discovery, unlimited love, and searching for that place in the world where you can truly call home. Hope you enjoy.

Italicized- Song lyrics to "Brooklyn Blurs" by The Paper Raincoat
Normal- Dialogue and actions
1, 2, 3, 4 (guitar to "Brooklyn Blurs" begins)
"I wish we could travel."
"Miley, you've been all over the world."
"No," she slides the book across the table for him to see, "I wanna go places."
Liam stares at her with uncertainty then smiles.
Shows them on the rode driving, Miley is watching the empty landscape out the window.
I took the N Train in from the ocean
Up to 14th St. Union Square
Miley walking out of her new house, eventually into a book store.
I swam around with the bodies in motion
Drank in the people, then came up for air
Shows Miley opening up a book and sitting down to browse through the pages.
And I am a breeze in the still August air
And I can't believe that I'm still standing here
Miley and Liam running through a market, buying food at Wal-Mart, scuba diving..
I am a ghost to everyone I know
Shows them below the Eiffel Tower.
A star stands still above while Brooklyn blurs below
(music slows down into the bridge)
Picture yourself riding under the freeway
It's 3 in the morning in the sodium sky
Liam is kneeling next to Miley's bedside; she is very upset and crying and his hands are holding onto hers.
Don't be alarmed, it's only a feeling
No one can see us tonight
"We don't want to go home," Liam says and Miley shakes her head smiling beneath her tears, "So we won't."
(Final chorus with girl singing)
I am a breeze in the still August air
Shows Miley writing on postcards and in a journal, Liam taking pictures, her and Liam embracing in Paris,
And I drop my knees with all this beauty here
In their hotel room undressing with the light of streetcars dancing around them.
And I am a ghost to everyone I know
And it feels so free
But it's so cold
Shows them looking out into a familiar ocean.
It's so cold
When Brooklyn blurs below
A taxi is driving them back to her LA home, Miley is asleep on Liam's shoulder. They walk through the front door with their luggage in their hands and are finally home.
I'm going to look at the feedback to finalize my decision on continuing this. I really hope I can hold onto as much effort as I can to complete it.
Anybody interested?
