Chapter Two: What Does she Have I Don't?
Mikayla POVWhy was Miley being so weird?
I mean, she froze up when I said that we would be neighbors, big whoop. Then she ran inside and slammed the door in my face! How rude, huh? I mean, HELLO MILEY! I'm your friend! Maybe she herd my scream when Jake Ryan said that he and Hannah might go out. I had just figured out our celebrity couple name! Jakayla! We are so perfect for each other! What does Hannah have that I don't? Grr!
"What should I wear to my concert tonight, Mom?" I said as I held up a pink, long-sleeve t-shirt with a purple vest and skinny jeans, and a red hoodie with a pink tee under it with a black skirt that went down to my knees. She pointed to the pink tee and purple vest with skinny jeans.
"Thanks!" I said and ran upstairs and I changed. "I can't believe I have to share a concert with Hannah Monboring!" I said as I did my hair into a nice pigtail with two sections of hair coming around my cheekbones and chin, then down to my neck. I smiled as I put lipstick on and finished with mascara.
Miley (Hannah) POV---
"Mikayla is my neighbor and I have to share a concert with her? AUGH!" I yelled as I opened the doors to the Hannah closet. "This is going to be horrible. Oh well, at least I'll get to talk with the Jonas Brothers while I'm at the concert." Lilly nodded and went into her "Lola" part of the closet. She chose out a plaid skirt that fluffed out like a tutu, a red t-shirt and a black vest over it, and a green wig. I chose my halter top with the golden top of it that had sleeves that puffed in circles on the shoulders and went to my wrists. I put on my Hannah wig and did it in two pigtails at the nape of the neck and twirled them into buns. Perfect. I put on mascara and guitar earrings.
The limo arrived and, Lola, Dad, and me got in to find Mikayla staring at me.
"Why did you come out of Miley's house?" she asked with an annoyed tone and a disgusted look at my outfit.
"They're cousins!" Lilly burst out. "Hannah is visiting while her room is being redone." Mikayla sighed.
"Oh. Why isn't she coming to my-I mean OUR concert?" Mikayla said as she took out her sidekick and started to text.
"She's having a sleep-over with Lola's cousin Lilly." I said through my teeth.
Mikayla POV---
I have to deal with HER now until her room is redone? Great, NOT! I thought as Hannah, her creepy friend, and I traveled to the concert. When the limo pulled up to the stadium I bolted out of the limo and ran into Kevin Jonas at the door. I fell on my butt and didn't look up, not knowing it was one of the Jonas Brothers.
"Watch it!" I said as I stood up and dusted myself off.
"Ooh, Mikayla the Diva!" Kevin said and offered me my sidekick back, and I took it.
"Oh I'm so sorry Kevin!" I squeaked. He laughed.
"No prob, Mikayla." Kevin said as we walked into the arena for a sound check. I giggled half to death when Kevin said that mics are overrated and started to shout the words to "S.O.S."
"So, you ready for the concert?" Lola asked as I the crowd went wild while we were backstage.
"What? Oh, yeah, yeah, of course." I said, pulling away from looking at the Jonas Brothers talking and laughing with Hannah. Why do all the guys love Hannah? I'm sweet…sometimes.
"What's wrong?" Lola asked, twirling her green hair around her fingers.
"What does Hannah have that I don't?" I asked with a sigh. Lola froze.
"Well, she did try to be nice to you the first time you talked for real and you insulted her." Lola said like it was obvious. I was so mean that she told everyone she knew I was rotten? I am not rotten! Well, I did say that it looked like someone puked on her clothes. Oh my gosh, I am horrible!
"And now, welcome the Jonas Brothers!" A voice announced and Joe, Nick, and Kevin ran out onstage while Hannah and I warmed up our voices on different sides of the area.
"Do re mi fa sol la ti do," I sang over and over. Hannah was singing something like "I miss you, I miss your smile." Lola was watching Hannah and joined in singing a little bit of "True Friends" with her. I can't believe I had to sing that with her. At least at this concert I would perform first.
"Please welcome to the stage Mikayla!" The announcer called and I ran onstage, waving to all my fans.
"Scream if you're having fun tonight!" I called out and the whole stadium screamed. "That's great! Now who's ready for some pop?" the stadium screamed again I started to sing, "If Cupid Had a Heart" as soon as I finished the crowd went wild. I sang the rest of my set and then stayed onstage as the announcer spoke up again.
"And now, the song you've ALL been waiting for, Hannah Montana and Mikayla will now sing a duet of 'True Friend' please welcome Hannah to the stage!" he called out and the crowd started chanting "Hannah, Hannah!"
"Hey everybody!" Hannah smiled and waved as the music started. "We sign our cards and letters BFF."
I smiled and sang my part. "You know a million ways to make me laugh."
"You're lookin' out for me, you got my back."
Then we both sang, "It's so good, to have you around."
"You know the secrets I could never tell." I faked a smile and walked over to Hannah, pretended to whisper something in her ear and she pretended to laugh.
"And when I'm quiet you break through my shell. Don't feel the need to do a rebel yell,"
"Cause you keep, my feet on the ground."
Then we wrapped one of our arms around each other's shoulders and sang together. "You're a tru-u-u-ue friend. You're here till the end." We turned to each other and let our arms drop. "You pull me aside when something ain't right, talk with me know and into the night…" you know the rest.
After the song ended I waved and blew kisses to the audience as I walked off stage and Hannah started to sing "We Got the Party" with the Jonas Brothers. I walked backstage and Ashley was there, her long golden orange hair tied back in a braid.
"You did great tonight, Mikayla." She said.
"Thanks, I'm glad you liked it!" I grinned and hugged her.
"When am I going on?" she asked, I saw she was dressed in her talent show outfit that she looked excellent in. I froze. I had promised she and I could sing together tonight. My face fell. Tears welled up in her eyes, her mascara started to blur and smudge. "I'm not going on tonight, am I?"
"You were just a little too late tonight, Ash." I said, fumbling with my bag to get some Kleenex out. I finally found some and handed it to her "Maybe if you come with me in the limo next time you can sing a duet with me or sing solo." Ashley took the Kleenex and blew her nose; she took another and tried her eyes, sniffling.
Hannah and the Jonas Brothers walked backstage and were laughing. I blushed when Kevin looked over at me and smiled, not just a 'smile' smile, but a flirty smile!
"What's wrong with-uh, what's your name?" Nick stopped laughing and walked over to Ashley. She held up her purse with her name embroidered on it. "Ashley. What's wrong, Ashley?" he asked kindly.
"She was a little late to the concert and I forgot that she wanted to sing tonight," I said guiltily. "Once I clean her up can she sing?" I asked. The four nodded.
"Sure." Nick smiled and stroked Ashley's hair a little.
"Kay. C'mon, Ash, we have a concert to get you ready for!" I said and pulled her into my dressing room. I cleaned off her make-up, put her on my BEST outfit that fit her as well as me; a sparkly pink baby-doll top, and dark blue skinny jeans, with baby blue espadrilles and a pink fedora. I topped it off with the most beautiful make-up job I could do with Lola's help. We came out and Nick looked awestruck.
"Woow." He said breathlessly. "Ashley, you look, beautiful." Ashley blushed.
"Thanks." Ashley giggled as I pulled her over to the stage. Hannah started setting her up with a microphone.
"Now don't worry, I've already set it up with the announcer and gotten the audience pumped up, do you have a demo CD? With JUST the music?" Hannah asked as she did a few last minute adjustments. Ashley nodded and handed Hannah a pink CD in a clear case. "Leave it All to Me?" she asked with a smile.
"It's pretty cool." Ashley said as she was announced and ran onstage and clicked on her mic. The music started to play. "In five, four, three, two! Yeah!" she counted down on her fingers, and then punched the air. She started to sing and bob her head for side to side gently. "I know, you see, somehow the world will change for me, and be so wonderful!" then the music went 'Ding-DONG-ding' and she swung her head and arms from side to side on each bell-like sound. "Live life, breathe air, I know somehow I'm gonna get there, and feel so wonderful. It's all for real, I'm tellin' ya just how I feel!" She beckoned to the audience and started the chorus, "So wake up the members of my nation, 'cuz it's your time to be, there's no chance unless you take one! And it's time to see the bright side of every situation. Some things are meant to be so gimme you best and leave the rest to me! Leave it all to me, leave it all to me." She ended by making a half-circle with her arm and them pointing to herself. "Just leave it all to me!" The crowd went wild and Ashley gave a smile from ear to ear, waving brightly as she walked from end to end of the stage. "Thank you everybody!" and she tossed her hat offstage and walked backstage.
"Ohmigosh, Ashley! YOU. ARE. AWESOME!" I turned and saw a woman with beach blond hair and wearing a bright blue suit running over and hugging Ashley.
Ashley POV
---
What planet is this lady from? Why is she hugging me? UGH! I thought as I tried to push the creepy lady off of me.
"Who are you?" I half screamed. Good thing my mic was off. She stepped back and pinched my cheek with her sharp, over-manicured fingers, those nails must be half dead! She released my cheek and I rubbed it to dull the pain a little. She had punctured my skin a little and I was bleeding slightly.
"Your new agenr, silly-willy!" She giggled. "I'm Sally!" I turned my head away and rolled my eyes. She did the silly-willy thing, I hate it when I'm treated like I'm five and can't comprehend what she says unless she makes it rhyme. I looked back at her with a plastered smile on my face.
"Oh, really!" I let my face fall. "I didn't ask for an agent! Who was thinking this was a good idea?" I put on my diva attitude and went into full hissy fit. "I want her OUT! I have my agent already! It's the same as Mikayla's now LEAVE!" Sally stayed put. "SECURITY!"
Hannah POV

"Roxy!" I called and she was there in seconds. "Please escort Miss Sally off the premises."
"Sure Miss Montana. Come along Miss Sally." She grabbed Sally's arm and dragged her off. She was starting to plead with Ashley.
"Please Ashley! You don't really want to share an agent do you? C'mon! I could be the best agent EVER!" Ashley crossed her arms across her chest and shook her head. "You'll RUE this day Ashley! RUE I SAY! You'll regret turning me down!"
"Puh-lease!" She rolled her eyes and walked off with Mikayla.
