Chapter Two

"Should I go up to him?" Miley asked herself. She thought for a moment and decided that she couldn't bring herself to confront Nick. Instead, she just watched him walk out of the cafe, looking happier than ever. She smiled to herself. Whenever Nick was happy, she would be happy too. Now, they can't share their happiness together anymore.

Nick was happy because of the pain Miley was going through. Sure, she was the one who broke up with him, but she still loved him at the time. And she still loved him now. It had been months since the breakup and Nick had moved on when Miley hadn't. It hurt to see Nick with someone else who wasn't her. Of course, there was no excuse for having a broken heart when it was your own fault for causing it.

She sighed and sat back down, stirring her hot chocolate with a spoon. "I miss you. . ." she whispered as a tear fell down her cheek.

Nick and Selena started becoming closer. They would hang out almost every chance they had. Soon they became best friends, but Selena intended on becoming more than that.

There was a knock on the door and Selena went to go open it. She smiled at the sight of Nick and wrapped her arms around him, pulling him into a hug. Nick hugged her back then pulled away after a few moments and asked if he could come in. "Sure," Selena replied sweetly and stepped aside to let her friend walk in.

"What should we do?" Nick asked, looking around.

Selena shrugged. "We could watch a movie?"

"Ok," Nick said, "I'll go get popcorn." He walked into the kitchen and watched as the popcorn popped in the microwave after he put the bag in. After a few minutes, he poured the popcorn in a bowl and walked back into the living room to take a seat next to Selena on the couch.

Selena snuggled closely to Nick on the couch. He gave her a weird look and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Uh, just getting comfortable," Selena said with a smile. "Is that okay?"

"Sure, I guess," Nick shrugged and turned his attention back to the screen to watch the movie. Nick couldn't stop thinking about the times when he and Miley spent the night watching movies with eachother. Selena acted a lot like Miley did months ago when she and Nick were together.

Selena couldn't fight the urge to kiss Nick, so she unexpectedly leaned up and kissed Nick softly. Nick was surprised by this sudden action, but kissed her back anyway, pulling away after a few seconds.

"I'm sorry," Selena said sadly.

"For what?"

She looked into Nick's warm brown eyes. "Can I tell you something?"

"Sure," Nick answered.

"I like you, Nick."

Nick smiled, although he wasn't sure if he liked Selena in that way or not. After all, she was his best friend. He wasn't even sure if he was completely over Miley yet. "Now it's my turn to tell you something."

Selena could feel a smile forming on her face. "What is it?"

"I'll tell you tomorrow," Nick said, getting up to leave. "Bye Sel." And with that, he was gone.

Miley was sitting at her desk trying to write a song. A song about how she was still completely in love with Nick.

Nothing. She couldn't come up with the right words to describe her feelings. She leaned back in her chair and ran her hand through her hair, sighing frustratedly.

Her phone buzzed and she opened the text message to read it. It was from Nick.

hey, can we meet up somewhere and catch up? i was thinking the coffee shop

Miley was relieved that Nick wanted to talk to her, but slightly concerned at the same time. What could Nick possibly want to have to do with her? She pushed the thoughts aside and replied back to him.

see you soon

She walked to the coffee shop and looked around for Nick when she arrived. She smiled when she spotted him and made her way toward him. "Hey Nick," she said as soon as she reached him where he was sitting at his table.

Nick looked at her and stood up. "Miley, hey," he said slowly. "Sit down."

"Ok," Miley pulled out the chair and sat down. They sat in silence for a few minutes until Miley broke the silence and asked, "So, do you have a girlfriend?"

"No," Nick answered. "Do you have a boyfriend?"

"No."

"I'm surprised boys aren't lining up to date you," Nick said with a laugh.

"Well, none of them are the right guy," Miley sighed, looking down.

"Who's the right guy you're looking for?" Nick raised an eyebrow.

Miley looked back up at Nick and looked into his eyes. "It's you. . ."
