The wind blew lightly as the young girl curled under the large tree. Her bright blue eyes gazed and followed each other toward the directs of the small creek. The sun began to set as she played with the fuzzy grasses beneath her fingertips, plucking each piece of grass out at a time. Worry lines creased her forehead as her eyes squinted to protect themselves from the bright spring sun rays.
A croaking frog was heard from around the forestry-like area of far back area of her home. The water lilies were sprung out of the tall grasses and the fragrance filled her nose. Her hair moved slightly in front of her face, tickling her ears with it's contact.
Her red lips pressed in a thin line as she opened her mouth to heave a sigh and push her hair away from her face. A small smile grew on her lips as she watched a frog hop from one lily pad to another. She moved her song book out of her lap to walk towards the creek. The water was clear and easy enough to watch the little fishes swim under the surface.
She watched as a fly buzzed by her and it startled her as it was swallowed whole by the frog. She gasped and look a step back and returned to her original spot on the tall grasses. She seated herself and rubbed her knees against the cool grass, ignoring the grass stains she wouldn't be able to get off in the wash. She crossed her legs and received her song book; placing it on her lap.
She tapped her pencil wondrously against the white paper and tossed the song book back down again in a annoyance.
"Ugh!" She sighed loudly and tossed her pencil in the lake letting it sink to the bottom. She'd have to pay for that later.
"Miles… stressed?" Justin laughed wittedly.
Miley glanced up to meet the hazel eyes of the man.
"Yes, Justin." She crossed her arms across her chest and stood up.
""Mile, I was only kidding please don't be mad…"
Miley's attention was else where as she closed her eyes, opening her mouth to speak," Justin I need to ask you a serious question and I need an honest answer from you."
"What is it, babe? You know you can ask me anything,"
"What do you see around us?"
" I see a beautiful surrounding and a beautiful girl."
"What else? Is there anything?" Miley practically begged as she closed her eyes shaking her head.
"I don't know Miles. What are you saying?"
"Justin, what do you see in our relationship?" Miley's voice was soft, she was never good about this.
"I-I…think we're happy...Why? Tell me what's going on, please!"
"Justin, how much do you love me?" Miley was on the edge of tears as she gripped the tree for support.
"I love you a lot, Mile. What's going on? Who is it?"
"I-I it's not you, Justy."
"Who is it?" Justin paused for a quick second and his eyes water up with fresh tear," it's Nick, isn't it? Your not over him are you?"
"Justin..I.. I'm sorry!"
He stopped her by putting his finger to her lips, "Shh. I understand. You never stopped loving him. Don't be sorry."
"I…thanks for understanding. But, Justin, this doesn't mean I want you out of my life."
the man's face freezes over and is hard, but then gives her a small smile," None taken, I understand, you'll always be my little milestone." Her pauses before grinning," And I will always be there when you need me,"
Miley gives him a slight arm hug," Thanks Justin, it's just…" She pauses," I miss having little play fights and make up within a day, I miss falling asleep in his arms, I miss crying in his chest. I miss…waking up at three am from the tapping on my window, and kissing in the rain. Having a carefree love and feeling like I'm walking on sun shine, but, you can't give that to me, I'm sorry,"
A tear fell down his face as he smiles and kisses her once more, "No hard feelings, goodbye, Miley,"
Miley shoots him one of her signature grins," What are talking about? It's not goodbye! It's only the beginning of a new and better friendship, more like see you later, my friend!"
Justin chuckles heart fully," Kay, bye Miles." Miley silently waited for him to leave," Good bye Justin," And with that she smiled.
Once night fell, Miley sat on her lawn chair beside her pool with a pile of water lilies in her lap. Her fingers moved across the silk-like petals and plucked one every now and then. She wasn't sure why tears slid down her cheeks and it honestly it didn't point out to why they were there in the first place.
She cursed Nick's name quietly under her breath; blaming him for why she sat outside past eleven pm just to think and why her thoughts couldn't wait until the morning.
Her thoughts consumed of his eyes, hair, lips and smile and most importantly the love she had for him. A smile played on Miley's lips just thinking about Nick and she wasn't able to hide one announce of teeth the seeped through her lips.
Miley's POV
I slowly pick up a water lily and smell the beautiful fragrance. I close my eyes for a few minutes trying my best to save the moment and the identical smell. I cannot stop thinking about Nick as I plug out each petal at a time. The feeling of the flower under my fingers is soft and I feel my hands shaking but then they stop. I tear apart the petals one by one and whisper to myself," I love Nick, I love him not…"
I don't know what I am saying, I find myself to sound delusional," Who am I kidding, I love him!"
I sigh standing; ready to head to bed for the night.
A few hours later I lie in bed; awake. I try my hardest to drift off and get a few hours of sleep. I need to wake up early and head to the studio. I pressure myself to fall asleep, but my head won't allow me. I yearn to hear his voice and his slow breathing and to run my fingers through his brown curls; yet that is unimaginable.
I pick up my phone off the receiver and dial the familiar digits I know by heart. It rings a few times; I feel like a burden; it is three am. I mentally kick myself in the head when I hear his groggy voice answer the phone," Hello?" I feel awful for waking him at this hour; this call of mine was a mistake.
"Nick? Hi, it's Miley,"
"Mi? What time is it?" His voice reply in a low murmur. I squeeze my eyes shut. Good job, Miley.
"I'm sorry, Nicky. It's 3 am…"
"What's wrong, Mi?" His voice is now alert and I can hear his moving around in his room.
" I know it's early, I just needed to talk to you…I needed to hear your voice,"
"Why, what's up Mi? is everything alright?" Why does he have to be so caring? Why can't he be rude from me stopping him from his sleep.
"I broke up with Justin, other than that I'm fine."
His voice is in a hesitant question," W-what do you mean, what happened?"
I don't know what to say, I obviously can't come out and say, oh yeah, I broke up with Justin because I'm still in love with my ex, that's you. He is quietly waiting for me to speak up, so I decide to," Oh, I uh, realized he's not the one I love."
"Who do you love?" It's like he knows he is torturing me with these descriptive questions," Someone closer than we know." Plain and simple, yet; it fits perfectly.
He s quiet and it is driving me insane. Finally, after a few silent seconds he says," oh. He's a real lucky, guy," I feel like shouting, 'Nick it's you!' but instead I hold it back with everything in me.
I smile to myself," Yeah, he is,"
I hear Nick Yawn on the other line. I feel content from having that talk with him," How bout you get some sleep, thanks for the talk," I grin as I feel my own eyes growing sleepy bags.
"No problem, anytime, Mi Mi, see you tomorrow."
I quickly remember tomorrow is Thursday and I can't hold back the big smile forming on my face," Yeah. Goodnight, Nicholas,"
"Sweet dreams, Mile."
Sweet dreams indeed.
