Young and unafraid to face the world before them, Nick and Miley faced everything together. They were neighbors and the very best of friends. They had gone to school together, went over to each other's houses after school. They were practically inseparable. But what was to be expected when their parents were also old friends that had grown up together as well. It just made it even better that they had managed moved in the same town as one another and even ended up as next door neighbors. For years, the Jonas family and Cyrus family had BBQ's together for different holidays and special occasions. Spending holiday vacations together too.
"come on Nick," Miley chimed with a big smile plastered across her angelic child face, " lets to go to the park" She then reached out for the hand of the shaggy haired boy sitting at the table eating some freshly made chocolate chip cookies. "Ok" muffled the little boy with a mouth full of cookies as he grabbed her hand and headed for the front door. Following after them very closely Mr. Jonas called out after them just as they began to ascend up the block to the park, "Where exactly do you think you're going Nicholas and Miley Ray?" The two young energetic souls stopped dead in their tracks at the sound of their full names being called, slowly turning around to see Nick's mom looking at them very sternly. 'Um, going to the park since it's so nice' Miley answered with a sweet demeanor and pouty look.. "Not by yourself you're not," replied Nick's mom "wait right there you two," she said as she turned to call up the stair to one of her older sons. Joe was the first one to come down the stairs at their mom's call.
"What happened, Mom" Joe said as he came down looking at his mom questioningly. "Would you mind taking Nicky and Miley to park for me please," she replied as she kept a close eye on the young ones attempting to slowly get away to the park without being seen. "Sure, Mom" Joe replied as he made his way outside just in time to see nick and miley both dart up the block in a full sprint to the park. Both Joe and Denise (Mrs. Jonas) beginning laughing at the sight of them running full of excitement to get to the park. Joe made his way up there quickly hearing his mother call out after him 'thank you honey'. Reaching the park he laughed at the sight before his eyes; Miley and Nick taking turns pushing each other on the swings, to Joe that was such an adorable sight. They had spent quite a bit of time at the park playing around and completely tiring themselves out. Joe ended up having to carry both of the small children home; luckily it was only a block away. This was the routine for most of the summer of course with the rotation of older siblings watching them play from both families. And it continued until the reached 10 years of age. They would play and hang out together but not really going to park as much except when they wanted to escape the hassles of being home and dealing with the older siblings. Throughout elementary school no one really said anything about boys and girls being best friends and no one really mad fun of that either. But who knew that once they had reached middle school things would begin to change and people would start to make stupid comments. But Nick and Miley never really let things like that bother them because they knew the truth. Their friendship relationship had only grown stronger and they were able to tell each other everything.
It wasn't until they were in middle school that Nick and Miley realized that they had actual feelings for one another. Their relationship did shift rather slightly but not to the extent to ruin their friendship. Nick and Miley did part ways a little going with their own separate groups of friends and following different topics of conversation. The main topic both groups seemed to be buzzing about was the upcoming holiday of Valentine's Day and everyone was talking about what was going to happen and who they were hoping to be asked to be Valentine's by etc. Nick was baffled by the talk amongst the guys. Most of which were more worried about what girl to ask and what to give them rather than worrying about the dance and the festivities that the school were sponsoring for this day.
Nick had in mind who he wanted to ask and he had a few slight ideas of how to ask her. Now the question was how to get the ball rolling. So in order to get the ball rolling in the next few days of school he got his friends to get involved. Over the next few days Miley had received a few mysterious gifts that were beautiful card taped outside her locker door, a basket of chocolates and flowers left on her doorstep with a note attached addressed to miley. Each little token gift left for miley gave little hints and clues for her to figure out who was the mystery man and what he was going to ask. Every day after school or before school Miley would talk to Nick about it all, even asking him questions of what he thought and who it might be if he knew anything.. All the while Nick couldn't help but crack a smile thinking how well his plan was being executed and couldn't wait for the right time to tell her the truth and that was going to happen later on today while in school. Until then he would just smile and act casual and wait for later.
