Chapter 3

Jake's Point of View

I walked into Miley/Hannah's dressing room expecting the unexpected after what had happened on the stage a few minutes ago. Miley looked dumb-struck when she saw me; just the same look she gave me when she was on stage and flubbed the lyrics.

Miley just gaped at me for a few seconds. Finally, I couldn't stand the silence. I had to say something. But what?

"M-I mean Hannah," I said looking around to see if anyone else was within earshot, "I never thought that you would be able to see me in the crowd. I knew that I had almost front row seats, but that thought never crossed my mind. I'm so, so sorry."

"It's OK, I guess. Well, actually it isn't, but I forgive you anyway; you didn't do anything wrong anyways," Miley gushed. "I just got so surprised and I just couldn't think. I have no clue what I'm going to say to my fans! But that isn't important now. What I've wanted to say for a long time is that I'm sorry and I'm the one who should be sorry, not you. I'm sorry because of the embaressing things I did to make you break-up with me."

Then I said-"I just wanna say that if there's anything I did to hurt you...I'm sorry, Miley, so, so sorry. And I feel so bad for being such a self-centered jerk: accusing you of feeling jealous of me. I totally blew up in your face and I'm so sorry. I hope we can just be friends 'cause I am going to start at Seaview High-"

"What?" Miley shot back in her twangy southerner way.

"Did he just say...?" Lily/Lola said.

"Shhhhh," said Robby Ray as I realized he'd been eaves dropping almost the entire time.

"Dad...leave." Miley pointed to the door.

"I can take a hint." And he left them alone again.

"Well I'm coming back as Milos, not Jake so I can learn to become a normal person; someone worthy of someone as spectacular as you."

"Ahhhhhhhhh...," Lily/Lola cried and Miley pointed to the door once again.

Now we were truly alone. I think it might be time to tell her. OK, Zombie Slayer, you can do it. Get your act together! I thought.

"Uh...Hannah? Um, well, I don't really know how to tell you this so as your friend, I think you have the right to know..."

Miley's Point of View

"...OK, I'm just gonna come out in say it, I don't know how you'll feel but...the producers of Zombie High are asking Hannah to come back on the show to finish the KISS," explained Jake in a hushed tone. I could tell he was trying not to scare with that huge piece of news since he is my ex-boyfriend.

"Oh, um, O-OK," I stammered. The word KISS was echoing through my head.

"Miley, are you OK with it? Because I can make them get someone else to do that part."

"No, Jake, I'll do it."
