I still own nothing.
Miley's POV
Am. So. Bored. It's the final few minutes of my last class for the day. God, I could shoot Mr. Brimner in the face. He talks so, fucking, slow. I am so glad I only have to listen to his abnormally dull voice for six more weeks! Then, I'm gone. I graduate. I can be relieved from school. Mikayla and I can go to the beach and hang out whenever. I can finally relax. Dad won't make me get up every morning. Whoa, I think… I think I was almost…happy.
I look over at Mikayla, who is sitting next to me, and give her what I think is a smile. I guess it was considering she flashed me one of her winning smiles. I don't know if I should be dumbfounded or scared shitless at this feeling.
Then, I remember, Lilly should have been graduating with us. She should be here next to me, not Mikayla. She should be the one holding me every night, not Mikayla. Lilly can't be replaced. Mikayla has no right to try to do that.
I'm angry now. I hear the bell and rush off to my locker. I didn't even turn back to see if Mikayla was anywhere near behind me. As soon as I was finished at my locker I sprinted out of the school and into the parking lot.
"Miley, wait up!" Shit. It's Mikayla. I stop dead in my tracks knowing that anything else I would try to do, for instance, running wildly and screaming bloody murder, wouldn't get me out of this situation.
"Hey, why'd you take off like that? I wanted to talk to you." She says as she reaches me. How the hell did she catch me? I plowed over three people, football players might I add, to avoid her.
"I bet you would" I say as a snarl.
"Was that really necessary?" She asked that so innocently. Like she doesn't know what she's doing. She can be so stupid.
"What?" I snarl again. That's right Miley, make sure she knows she did wrong.
"The attitude. I didn't do anything to deserve that." Fuck, she did not just say that. Is she seriously that fucking stupid!
"So you think you're perfect now! I've got news for you Mikayla! You are the farthest thing from perfect!" That's a good girl Miley, tell her she's worthless.
"I never said I was." She says completely monotone. What's she trying to do?
"Ugh! Just forget it Mikayla! I know what you're doing!" Yeah, she can't dig herself out of this one! I blocked all the exits.
"Wait, what? What am I trying to do? What am I supposed to forget?" She looks dumbfounded.
"Don't play stupid! You're trying to replace Lilly! I knew it! I knew it! I knew it!" I scream. By now I've drawn quite a crowd and tears are streaming down my face. She just looks at me.
Why is she looking at me? I found her out. I caught her.
"What?" I scream.
"Miley, Lilly was an amazing person. She was talented and beautiful and-" I cut her off. How. Dare. She.
"What did I tell you about talking about Lilly? I told you that you couldn't!" Yes, I'm still screaming and I continue. "Just stop talking you bitch! I hate you, you fucking cunt!" Wait, what? Please tell me I didn't just say that. No, I couldn't of. Wait, she tearing up. No! Mikayla, I didn't mean that!
What's happening! Miley, tell her you didn't mean it! Why can't I talk? Wait, am I smiling? Oh no. No no no no. Please no. She closed her eyes. Damnit, Miley, say something!
She opens her eyes and through gritted teeth says, "Miley shut the fuck up and wipe that wise-ass smile off your fucking face!" She yelled at me. She never yells at me. What did I do wrong? "For two years I let you walk all over me! This is the only way you thank me! I waited! I waited for you! I gave you everything. I stopped my life so you could live yours." It is now that I realize that she is right. "Miley, where are you?" she says softly.
I cry. Hysterically. I'm curled up on asphalt emptying my eyes. I can't answer. I don't know the answer. Then I hear Mr. Brimner's annoying voice.
"Okay people -pause- move along - pause- there's nothing -pause- to s-" Mikayla cuts him off.
"God, for once in your sad, empty life, can you get the sentence out before the freshmen graduate? Seriously! Is it a mental issue or were your parents retarded when they taught you to speak?" Wow. If I wasn't crying so hard, I would of died laughing at that. Yupp, definitely bipolar.
Mikayla's POV
Ok. So, I probably shouldn't of said that, but really, the dude needs an energy drink or something. Wow, he looks pissed. Really pissed. Super pissed. His face is really red, like inhumanly red. Crap, he's about to say something.
"Mikayla Marshall –pause- you –pause- are in –pause-"
"Oh can it and tell me in the next life considering that's probably when you'll get it out, I'm kinda busy right now in this one." Nice one Mikayla! I'm on fire today. Hey, he looks mad again. Well I'm mad too.
I turn back to Miley who has obviously been crying. Yeah, that's right, I'm staring her down. Making her feel weak. Then again…when doesn't she feel weak? Upon thinking that I soften my glare. I should want her to hurt. I should but when I look at her all I want to do is hold her…plus the occasional dirty thought but that doesn't matter. Does it? Oh god… nononononono! Mikayla do not go there right now! Oh god…
"Mikayla?" Yes! I'm snapped out of my thoughts.
"Wha?" I stutter. It's Miley. Everyone's gone. How long was I out?
"Micky, I'm so sorry" her voice cracks. She's so quiet. So small. That's it. I have to be blunt.
"Miley, Lilly was an amazing person. She was talented and beautiful. I would never try to replace her. I know she was everything that I'm not and I know you know that." I'm taking a risk talking about Lilly, considering that's what started all this but she has to hear me.
"I know you're hurting. Miley, you can't take it out on me. I'm tired of it. I pour my heart out to you and you smash it back into my face. I'm so patient with you then you take off without me. This has to stop, Miles. If you can't spare me that then I can't spare my heart."
Oh shit, did I just say heart? I'm gonna go with yes since she's looking at me like that. Think Mikayla. "I-a-a time. I meant time." Better. She nods. She believes it was just a mistake so I'm in the clear.
"Can we go somewhere?" she asks.
"Yeah, of course." I lead her to my car and get in.
We don't say anything as I drive. The radio starts playing "Hot N Cold" by Katy Perry. Ironic much?
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Yeah you, PMS
Like a bitch
I would know
Did Miley just smile? Yeah, she's smiling.
And you over think
Always speak
Critically
I should know
That you're no good for me
I finally start singing along.
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
Miley decides to join me.
We used to be
Just like twins
So in sync
The same energy
Now's a dead battery
Used to laugh bout nothing
Now you're plain boring
I should know that
You're not gonna change
We both belt out the rest of the song.
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, You don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
Someone call the doctor
Got a case of a love bi-polar
Stuck on a roller coaster
Can't get off this ride
You change your mind
Like a girl changes clothes
Cause you're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
You're wrong when it's right
It's black and it's white
We fight, we break up
We kiss, we make up
You, you don't really want to stay, no
You, but you don't really want to go-o
You're hot then you're cold
You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down
I didn't want this to end. It's the best time we have together. I guess this is our thing. She and Lilly must have never done this. Miley and I could drive for hours, singing whatever played on the radio, till I ran out of gas. Then, we'd fill the tank back up and continue. Waist of gas? Yes. Guess what? It was worth every penny.
…. ….. ….. ….. …. ….. ….. … ….. … … …...
Mutemath's "You Are Mine" is playing now. Again, ironic. It's dark out. I don't know how long we've been driving but I'm definitely enjoying it and judging by the look on Miley's face, she is too. I'm so relaxed, one hand on the wheel and the other on the armrest.
I put my blinker on ready to merge onto the exit.
"Don't" is all she says.
"That's your exit" I say. She puts her hand on mine and looks deep into my eyes or as much as she can considering I have to watch the road.
"Just keep going." That's all she says, that's all I need. So I keep going.
"Micky, I know… I know I've been treating you like dirt. There aren't enough words to describe how sorry I am. Ya know, Lilly never new how much I loved her before she died. I wasn't able to tell her." Yes! Now we're getting somewhere.
"I mean, I always told her and… most certainly showed her, if you know what I mean." Great. Just what I need to hear. Lilly was so lucky. She had Miley showing her how much she loved her. God, what I'd do for lap dance from Miley… aw man… if she… awwww… Mikayla you need help.
"Mikayla?" Oh my god. Miley's still here. Whups. "You still with me?" she asks.
"Uh, yeah, sorry. Continue." And she does.
"Anyway, I couldn't express how I truly felt about her. I never got to say goodbye." Oh. Now I get it. This is why she says goodbye to me. She never got to say goodbye to Lilly. Wow. She really does care about me.
"Taking my anger out on you was and is the only way I know how to deal with it. You wont let me hurt myself, so I don't know what to do." She says. "But if you don't completely hate me, if you help me find another way to deal with this, than I'm willing to try." She looks at me with pleading eyes. Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit… my grandpa used to say that… yea, doesn't fit me, although, if Miley wouldn't mind… I'm a pervert. I take her hand, still watching the road but glancing at her, and say
"Miles, I could never hate you. If you're serious, if you promise me, that you'll really try, then I'm ready to go."
"Okay, lets do this. Mik, I can't promise to let go though, not yet." She says with a small smile.
"Okay" is my only reply. I'm okay with that. Want to know why? She said, yet.
We drive for another hour, listening to the radio softly playing in the background. I spot an exit and take it. I see a "Holiday Inn" and pull in. I have no idea where we are. All I know is that it's 5am on a Wednesday night er, Thursday morning. I am so tired. Miley is too. I get us a room and we collapse on the bed. Then I realize something, Miley's taking her pants off. Oh god. She wore pink and black panties.
She has the most beautiful thighs. God, to grab onto those thighs and… and… there best be a medication for this. She climbs in the bed and I go to follow but she pushes me back.
"Off " she says pointing to my jeans. Is she serious? I take them off any way. I don't get it, we've slept in pants before. Oh well. I climb in bed with her.
"Your wearing boxers." She says.
"Uh, yeah. I am." I say a bit confused.
"I never knew that. Are… are those dinosaurs?" she says taking a peek under the blanket and starting to giggle. Oh shit. I forgot I was wearing these ones today.
"I uh, well, yeah?" I start blushing ridiculously.
"Awww are you embarrassed? I'm sure one of Barney's cousins will make you feel better." She laughs.
"Glad I can entertain you." I say as I mentally slap myself.
We talked for another ten minutes about my lovely boxers, which I still hate myself for, before she put her head on my chest and fell asleep. As I listen to her sleep, I silently say
"There you are, Miles." I fell asleep shortly after that, with a satisfied smile on my face.
…. ….. … … ….. ….. … … ….
So while I was writing this chapter, "Love Remains the Same" started playing on the radio. It totally set the mood. Ok, I know, Mikayla is a complete horndog but someone's gotta be right? Miley's opening up more and Mikayla has dinosaur boxers. This chapter took me for a ride. It definitely went in another direction than planned. Anyway, this story may not end up Mikiley. Haha, you'll find out soon enough. So you tell me, where are Miley and Mikayla? They drove for about 15 hours. You pick. Do give me your thoughts.
