"Hannah Montana," ten-year-old Rico murmured dreamily, an absentminded smile falling across his face as the fifteen-year-old pop princess danced across the television screen.
"What a goddess," he whispered, watching dazedly as she belted out her latest single.
recently i've been
hopelessly reachin'
"Yo, Rico!"
Rico snapped out of his trance irritably and snapped off the television. "What do you want?" he yelled.
"Whoa, chill, buddy," eighteen-year-old Jackson Stewart said, placing his hands in the air in defense. "I just wondered if you were going to order anything."
"I'll consider it," Rico sighed, rubbing his temples.
"What's got your underoos in a bunch?" Jackson asked, leaning across the counter to face the younger boy.
Rico placed his hand on his heart dramatically. "The love of my life!" he sighed. "She's never going to know I exist."
out for this girl, who's out of this world
believe me
"Ooo, Rico's got a crush!" Jackson said, punching his shoulder playfully. "What's her name?"
"Hannah," Rico sighed dreamily, the same goofy smile spreading across his face.
"Hannah?" Jackson scratched his head. "Hannah Miller? Hannah Parker? Hannah Brady? Hannah-"
"Montana," Rico finished, letting out another lovesick sigh. "We were meant to be together, Jackson."
Jackson laughed. "Hannah Montana?" He threw a quick glance at his sister, Miley, who sat just a few tables away.
Rico rested his head on his fists. "It was love at first sight."
"Hey, Jackson, can I get a strawberry smoothie?"
Rico looked up and narrowed his eyes.
she's got a boyfriend
he drives around the bend
"Yeah, sure, Jake," Jackson said, turning toward the blender.
"Hey Rico," Jake smiled, giving Rico a nod.
Rico's eyes narrowed even more (if possible). "Hello, Jake," he spat venomously.
"Um, are you alright?" Jake asked, scrunching his eyebrows as the younger boy stared at him viciously. Jake tugged on his collar nervously.
"Me?" Rico asked innocently. "I'm fine. Perfect. Peachy keen. How's Hannah?" He plastered a smile on his face.
"She's great," Jake said slowly, placing a five-dollar bill on the counter. "Thanks Jackson," he muttered, as Jackson handed him the smoothie. "Keep the change." Giving Rico a look, he walked off.
"I hate that guy," Rico muttered, shaking his head.
Jackson laughed and grabbed a wet rag. "He could totally beat you up, Rico."
'cause he's twenty-three, he's in the marines
he'd kill me
"Just another reason to hate him," Rico muttered, glaring at Jake as he slid into a seat next to Miley and Lilly.
so many nights now, i find myself thinkin' about her now
"I hate to break it to you, Rico," Jackson said, cleaning the counters, "But I seriously doubt that you and Hannah Montana are going to end up together."
"We will," Rico protested, crossing his arms across his chest. "This weekend, when I go to the Hannah concert in LA, she'll fall in love with me, too! You'll see she returns my feelings!"
'cause obviously she's out of my league
"Hannah Montana would never date you, Rico," Jackson said, rolling his eyes.
but how can I win, she keeps draggin' me in
"How would you know, bonehead?" Rico yelled, pushing his stool away from the bar and hopping to his feet.
and i know i never will be good enough for her
"I know more than you think, little man," Jackson muttered as Rico stomped away. "I know more than you think."

"So, I learned something interesting today," Jackson said, sliding into his seat at the dinner table.
"Interesting by my standards or by your standards?" his sister Miley asked, placing a plate of spaghetti in front of him.
He tucked his napkin into his shirt collar and grabbed his fork, stuffing a freakish amount of spaghetti into his mouth. "I think you'll find it interesting," he said, several noodles falling out of his mouth.
got to escape now
get on a plane now
"Okay, shoot," Miley said, sitting in the chair across from him.
"I met Hannah's biggest fan today," Jackson said, wiping his spaghetti-stained mouth with the back of his hand.
"Oh?" Miley asked, one eyebrow raised. She took a small bite of her spaghetti. "And might I know this person?"
"You might," Jackson shrugged, a smirk on his face.
"Might you tell me who it is?"
"I might."
up to LA, and that's where i'll stay
for two years
"Just tell me, Jackson!" Miley squealed, lobbing a noodle across the table.
Jackson plucked the noodle from his shoulder and popped it into his mouth. "Rico." He grinned. "He's practically convinced you two are getting married."
Miley smiled. "That's so cute!" she said, taking another bite of her spaghetti.
put it behind me, go to a place where she can't find me
"No!" Jackson protested. "It's not cute! Rico's not cute! He's demon possessed! De-Mon. Po-Sessed."
Miley rolled her eyes. "Calm down, Jackson," she said. "I mean, he is a little annoying, but I'd hardly call him demon possessed."
"Are we talking about the same Rico, here?" Jackson said, shoveling another forkful of spaghetti into his mouth. "The Rico who completely humiliated you during your first week of high school?"
"Give the kid a break, Jackson," Miley said. "He's ten-years-old! It's sweet that he likes me!"
she's out of my hands
"No!" Jackson objected. "It's not! It's not sweet at all!"
Miley rolled her eyes and took her plate to the sink, rinsing it under the cool water.
"He's convinced you two are going to end up together at the concert this week in LA!" Jackson said, hoping this would annoy her. "He's probably going to try to humiliate you there, too!"
and i never know where i stand
"Who knows?" Miley said, turning around, a smirk plastered on her face. "Maybe we will end up together."
'cause i'm not good enough for her

Rico was practically bouncing up and down as he stood outside Hannah Montana's dressing room after the concert. He had practiced his pick-up line in the mirror in the hotel and, after much deliberation, had decided to use the classic 'Are you from Tennessee? 'Cause you're the only Ten-I-See.' She was from Tennessee, so he figured this would work well.
'cause obviously she's out of my league
The door opened slightly and Rico quickly grabbed his bottle of breath spray, giving himself to quick squirts.
i'm wastin' my time, 'cause she'll never be mine
"I hear there's a handsome boy out here who wants to meet me," he heard her say.
Her voice was angelic.
He gulped.
and i know i never will be good enough for her
This was the moment he dreamed about.
"Get ready, Rico," he whispered to himself.
She stepped out and grinned. "Hey," she said.
His eyes went wide.
What was he going to say again?
Something about Tennessee?
The number ten?
"I'm Hannah," she said.
Hannah.
That was a pretty name.
She was a pretty girl.
"Rico," he said dreamily.
Hannah laughed and gracefully floated down the stairs.
"Nice to meet you, cutie," she giggled.
"Rico," he said again, unable to come up with any other words.
Her face was very close to his.
He was going to die.
'cause i'm not good enough for her
She leaned in and her lips met briefly with his cheek.
"G'night," she said softly, hopping back up the stairs and closing the door behind her.
Rico fainted.
