UPDATE 11/2: I changed the Jonas Brothers' last name again. Instead of Lucas, their last name is Gray. Sorry for the changes.
Fifteen year old Miley Stewart stood in front of the glossy bathroom mirror, flicking her hair from side to side. She was debating whether to use the pin straight Hannah wig, or the wig decorated with subtle curls near the tips. "Come on, Miley. It shouldn't take this long to choose. It's not even real hair!" she scolded herself.
"Come on bud, we need to be at the venue in half an hour!" Robbie Ray called from downstairs. "The limo's already here!"
"I'm coming, Daddy!" was her reply. "Curse you, stupid hair." she muttered under her breath as she was forcing her curly brown hair up with bobby pins. As soon as she decided her hair was pinned tightly enough, her gaze shifted to the two wigs that lay before her on mannequin heads with blank faces. She stretched a pantyhose-like cap over her pinned hair and threw on the wig with curls, securing it with more bobby pins. She quickly checked her makeup before grabbing her purse and heading down the stairs.
"Bud, I am never going to let you do your own hair and make up again. Get in the limo, please." Robbie Ray ordered his daughter. Without hesitation, Miley scrambled out the door and into the awaiting stretch limousine. Robbie Ray quickly followed, and slid into the seat next to her. "Step on it, Mike." he told the driver.
"Daddy, I am so psyched for this Hannah concert!" Miley shrieked, brushing a loose strand of Hannah hair out of her face.
"And why is that?" Robbie Ray asked, although he already knew the answer.
"I'm gonna meet the Gray Brothers!" (A/N: Happy, fanfiction?) she chimed in a singsong voice. "I have had my eyes on that adorable Nick Lucas for the longest time."
Robbie Ray's blood level rose as he heard his daughter talk about yet another boy. "Now Miley, you sure you want to get into another relationship? You sure wouldn't want to relive that whole Jake Ryan escapade."
Miley rolled her eyes. The one thing she hated most was when her father butted into her love life. "Dad, I know the couple thing between us ended bitterly, but we're on good terms."
"…After nearly wrecking one of his movies." he finished for her.
Miley huffed and folded her arms, "Just because I had a little trouble with Jake, it doesn't mean every single one of my relationships will end up the same. When I talk to Nick after the show, I do not want you to go all protective on me."
"It's all because I love you, baby girl." Robbie Ray said, before their mouths stayed shut for the rest of the ride.
"Thank you, Malibu! Good night!" Miley blew one last kiss to her cheering fans before rushing backstage. She grabbed a chilled water bottle off the nearby concession table and took a long sip.
"Hey Hannah, there's some boys who'd like to meet you." said Robbie Ray, leading three boys to her daughter.
Miley near choked on her water as she caught sight of the three boys standing in front of her. "Oh my gosh, hi!" she squealed. "I'm Hannah Montana; it's so nice to meet all of you." She shook all of their hands before turning to Nick. "I'm especially excited to meet you Nick."
Nick shrugged and grinned. "Thanks."
"Thanks? Thanks? Is that all you can say? How can you be this calm? Nick, it's Hannah Montana!" Joe exclaimed, placing his hands on Nick's shoulders.
Kevin gently pushed Joe to the side. "You'll have to excuse him, Hannah. He's a little hyper. You did an amazing job, great concert."
Miley blushed at the sweet comment. "That's so sweet, thank you. What did you think of the concert, Nick?"
"It was really good." he replied.
Miley's heart sunk. She knew Nick meant that he liked the concert, but she was hoping for a little more chemistry between them. After all, they were very close in age. She decided to shake it off and turned to Joe. "What did you think, Joe?"
"I thought it was awesome. You were beautiful." Joe told her honestly.
After a few moments of awkward silence, Kevin decided to break the tension. "Listen Hannah, we're going to a movie premiere Friday night. We would love it if you could come with us."
"A movie premiere?" Miley's eyes lit up. "That sounds like so much fun! I would love to go with you guys!"
"Great." Kevin replied. "We'll pick you up Friday night at 7…?"
Miley glanced at her dad, who was sitting in a corner; contently watching Miley's every movie. "Can I?" she mouthed to her father. He sent an approving nod her way, causing her to squeal. "I'll see you Friday night." she told them. They said their goodbyes and went their separate ways.
"Looks like you really hit it off with those boys." Robbie Ray told his daughter as they slid into the limousine.
"They are so awesome, Dad. Thank you so much for inviting them to the concert. They are so cute." Miley swooned as she looked out the window, staring at the moonlit surroundings.
"Did that Nick boy ask you out?" Robbie Ray asked anxiously. He was already grilling up tactics to throw at Nick for taking his little girl in the back of his mind.
"Sadly, no." Miley said, a frown forming on her face. "But I've still got Friday to change his mind. I will look absolutely stunning. So stunning, that Nick would be crazy not to fall for me."
"What happened to the girl who thought boys had cooties?" Robbie Ray asked himself, glancing at his maturing, boy-crazy daughter.
"I still can't believe you met the Gray Brothers!" Lilly shrieked, squeezing her best friend half to death.
"Lilly…can't…breathe." Miley managed to choke out.
"Sorry." Lilly said, letting go of her friend. "You are so amazingly lucky. I would do anything to meet the Gray Brothers."
Miley giggled, "Maybe next time Lola will think before nearly taking off her wig on a red carpet. Then I will consider taking you to meet them."
Lilly sighed, "It was only one time, Miley."
"Forget it, Lilly. We'll talk about that later. Let's go to the mall and pick out a dress for me to wear to the premiere. I so want to impress Nick."
Lilly raised her eyebrows, "So after all that bragging that you and Nick would end up together after meeting for the first time, it never happened?"
"Alright, I admit. Maybe the bragging was a little much. That's why you and I should get to the mall right away. We need to find the perfect dress, the perfect accessories, everything."
"What do you think Lilly? Does this dress say: I will so impress a rock star?" Miley asked, modeling a leafy green, floor-length gown.
Lilly wrinkled her nose, "Nah. To me, it says I belong at the top of a tree."
Miley grabbed another dress off the rack and headed back into the dressing room. She came back out wearing another floor-length gown, but in a striking violet color. "What about this one?" Miley asked hopefully.
"You look like a glass of grape juice." Lilly said honestly. "Try the next one."
"Ugh!" Miley groaned before storming back into the dressing room. This time, she came out wearing a silky black dress that fell just above her knees. "This one?" Miley asked, losing her patience.
Lilly's jaw dropped. "Miley, it's perfect! Look at yourself!" she said, directing Miley towards the mirror.
"I look amazing!" Miley exclaimed as she stared at her reflection. Other than the dirty white socks that bordered her ankles, she looked absolutely perfect. All she needed to do was find accessories and jewelry that would match the dress. She scurried back into the dressing room to put her clothes back on. She came out with the black dress folded neatly over her arm. "Let's go pay."
The woman at the cash register looked strangely at Miley and Lilly. "You look awfully young to be buying a $3000 dress."
"It's my birthday." Miley lied to the woman. "Daddy's always out of town and he feels sorry that he can't be here for my special day. He told me I could buy whatever I wanted." The lady seemed to buy Miley's story and graciously accepted Miley's credit card.
Lilly tugged on Miley's shirt. "Miley! What's your dad going to say when he finds out how much you spent on a dress?"
Miley bit her lip, since she had been thinking about the consequences herself. "I'm sure he wouldn't mind if I dipped into Hannah's account. I mean, he knows that Hannah has to look good for her fans."
"Can't Hannah look good for her fans in something she already owns?" an angry Robbie Ray yelled.
"Yeah Dad, just go ahead and let your anger out." Jackson said as he watched from the armchair he was sitting in.
"Stay out of this, Jerk-son!" Miley snapped at her older brother. "Daddy, I'm sorry. I just wanted to look perfect for the premiere. You have to understand."
"What is there for me to understand?" asked Robbie Ray. "You used the Hannah card without telling me, you disobeyed me! You can't go into Hannah's account like it's no big deal!"
Miley sighed, "But Daddy, Hannah—I make enough money for the entire family. And I work really hard to earn that money. Can't I dip into Hannah's funds at least once?"
Robbie Ray opened his mouth to speak, but quickly closed it. His daughter had made a point. She was the one who made the money, and it killed him to yell at his little girl. "Alright, Miley. You made your point. You are the one that makes the money, and it's only fair that you get to spoil yourself with it every once in a while."
"So I can keep the dress?" Miley asked.
"Yes bud, you can keep the dress." he answered.
"Eeeep! Thank you so much, Daddy! I love you!" she squealed, embracing her father in a tight hug.
"Now hold up, darling. This doesn't mean you can use Hannah's money whenever you want. And promise me you'll remember that the next time you see something you like at the mall." he told her.
Miley nodded, "I promise, Daddy."
"Alright, now don't let that beautiful dress go to waste. Go get ready for that premiere." Robbie Ray said. Miley was more than happy to get ready, as she was already halfway up the stairs.
After applying her makeup and slipping on her dress, Miley pinned up her hair and placed her Hannah wig on. The wig had been set into soft waves, which Miley's hairdresser, Tiffany, had done especially for tonight. Lilly, who had been invited over to help Miley get ready, grinned from ear to ear. "You look gorgeous, Miley."
Miley blushed, "Thanks. I'm so glad we decided on this dress. I haven't had a second thought about it since." Miley headed over to her dresser and gently clipped her diamond heart necklace around her neck. She slid her wrist into a silver-studded bracelet before applying an extra layer of apricot flavored lip gloss to her lips. She smacked her lips in front of the mirror before heading over to Hannah's miraculous shoe closet. She slipped on her new pair of heels: shiny black pumps with gentle rhinestone accents near the points. She smoothed out her dress before turning to Lilly, "Do I look okay?"
"Heck yeah! You look absolutely stunning." Lilly assured her. They linked arms and exited the room, Miley briefly stopping to close the door behind her. They made their way down the stairs, where Robbie Ray was waiting.
"You look beautiful, Miley." he said.
Miley grinned before hugging her dad, "Thank you, Daddy. And once again, thanks for letting me keep the dress."
"No problem, baby girl. After seeing how stunning you look, I don't regret letting you keep it." Miley blushed as the doorbell rang.
"There's my ride. Bye Jackson! Bye Daddy!" Miley said, before Lilly stopped her at the door.
"Remember Miley, you look great. Now, go get your man." Lilly encouraged.
Miley smiled as she pulled her best friend into a hug, "Don't worry, I will." Little did she know, Nick wouldn't be blown away by her ensemble. What she really didn't know, was another brother would be.
