Family Friends

Lilly's POV

We got to Tennessee about three days ago, and i have met all of Miley's dads friends, including a couple famous ones.

Flash back

"Lilly i would like you to meet David Hodges." Mr. S says to me brightly.

"Ya...ya...your...your...holly cow! Your..." i said just staring at the tall muscly man in front of me.

"Hi, you must be Lilly it's a pleasure to finally meet you. Robbie Ray ain't stopped talking about you waking up." He said smiling at me, showing off his perfect teeth and smile.

"Yu huh?" I asked back turning to Mr. S pleading for some help through my eyes.

"Don't mind her Davie boy, she just a little star struck." He said to David as i blush deeply, trying to hide my face in my hands.

"Don't sweat it, I'm used to fans. besides she gonna have to get used to seeing me around for a while cause I'm her tour guide." he said nudging me with his arm.

"You are?" I asked him blushing deeply.

"Yes he is Lilly so time to start sight seeing." Mr. s says, as a familiar female steps up next to David.

"Holly cow! You're Mickie James!" I say, feeling my jaw start to drop.

"Yes i am, and you must be Lilly. Robbie Ray told us you might be a little star struck hon, but don't worry we normal as you or anyone else." She said smiling as she held her hand out for me to shake.

"Sorry...I'm a huge fan of you both...can someone pinch me? i think I'm back in my coma." I said causing the group around me to laugh.

"and funny...so you guys should have fun, i got some uh...business to take care of in town for a few days but I'll be back as soon as it is done." Mr. S said smiling lightly down at me.

"It's cool RR we got it covered." David said, as he and Mickie start to roll me out the house.

"Bye!" The three of us say, as i got helped into Davids nineteen seventy eight Cadillac Eldorado.

"Damn this car is sweet David!" I said as i glanced around the red velvet interior.

"Why thank you Lilly, i think she is pretty sweet too." He said starting her up and pulling out of the Stewart ranch and onto a long dirt road.

"Is it okay if we stop off and get some food guys?" I asked David and Mickie.

"Sure Lilly. But don't you wanna eat when we get to my place?" David asked me, glancing at me in his rear-view mirror.

"I don't want you guys going out of your way to look after a cripple." I said, as Mickie turned round in her seat.

"Not at all Lilly we asked if we could have you, to relax and enjoy a break away from everything that's happened to you." She said, smiling as she petted my hand lightly.

"And i was wondering if you would like to hear me in the studio laying down some tracks?" David said smirking as i squealed.

"No way! I can't intrude on you guys like that!" I said as David pulled the car over.

"Yes you can, besides we have a few friends of ours we would like you to meet later on when they come in to lay some of their tracks down." He said as he got out of the car and flicked a branch and a large gate opened out of nowhere made out of bushes and gates.

"That was soo cool." I said, grinning widely.

"Come on Dave! I'm getting hungry just listening to her stomach!" Mickie yelled out the car window giggling as she caught my eye in her mirror as we watched David run back t the car and diving into his seat.

"What ever you do, don't eat the car...she's my baby. OW!" David says and he yells as Mickie pinched his arm. "But you're me number one baby Mickie." He said as he leaned over and kissed her gently.

"If you would just help me into my chair i will give you guys some private time?" I asked as i watched Mickie pull away from David blushing as she turned to me.

"Sorry Lil kinda forgot you were there, it feels like you are part of the group already." She said smiling at me.

"Lets eat then hit the studio!" Dave says jumping out the car and grabbing my wheelchair from the boot setting it up and helping me into it.

"Thank you...Dave...can i call you Dave?" I asked smiling up at him.

"Only if i can call you Lils?" He said with a serious face.

"Call me whatever you want." I said as we all burst out laughing.

"Can we keep her, she's fun?" Mickie said, as she took over wheeling me into a large living area with a widescreen flat-screen on the wall.

"Damn that is one huge tv!" I said as Mickie sat down next to me.

"It's not as big as the one in the cinema in the basement it's specially made." she said, as she handed me a can of Dr. Pepper.

"How did you know i liked Dr. Pepper?" I asked her a i popped the top on the can, taking a slow gulp at the cool tasty liquid going down my throat.

"Robbie gave us a list of all your favorite foods and drinks so we could have you stay while he was doing business in town." She replied back.

"Son of a bitch!" I hear from behind us.

"Hey Hayley...you miss the step again?" Mickie asked as Hayley Williams walks in the room.

"Yeah...darn it...uh...hi." She said as she notices that Mickie is not alone.

"Oh...Hayley this is Lilly Truscott...Lilly this is Hayley Williams from Paramore." Mickie said as Hayley stuck her hand out for me to shake.

"Nice ta meet you Lilly." Hayley said smiling lightly.

"She won't say anything for a couple minutes she's star struck." Mickie said smiling softly at me.

"Wow...i really must be back in my coma." I said, causing Mickie to laugh.

"You were in a coma?" Hayley asked.

"Yeah for over a year...i got in a car accident." I said, taking a sip from my can of Dr. Pepper.

"Chin up, it'll get better it always does." Hayley said smiling softly.

"Hey...who's the chick?" I hear from the door.

"Come on in Tay." Mickie said as Taylor Swift walks into the room.

"Sorry i didn't mean to be rude, just some idiot almost ran their car into mines." Taylor said, sticking her hand out for me to shake.

"I'm Lilly. Nice to meet you Taylor." I said trying to act bold.

"Did you see a gun metal Aston Martin anywhere around here?" Taylor turns to the others in the room.

"Nope...sorry." Mickie and Hayley both replied.

"I think a friend of mines drives that car." I piped up.

"Who?" All the woman asked.

"Mikayla." I replied.

"Does that mean Hannah will be around?" Asked Hayley.

"I guess so. But she better not turn up here..." I hear Dave say from the doorway.

"Why not?" Asked Taylor.

"Cause of what she did to Lilly." Dave and Mickie said.

End Flash Back

I asked Mr. S if i could stay at the ranch and spend more time with the group i had made friends with, we all begged for me to stay, lucky for me Mr. S was counting on me wanting to stay.

"Sure Lilly, anything to make you happy." He said smiling down at me.

"Can i stay too?" came an all too familure voice from the living-room door.

"You shouldn't be here!" Dave says, stepping forward towards Miley.

"I want to talk to Lilly...if that's alright with ya'll?" Miley asked the room of Mr. S Taylor Swift, Hayley Williams, David Hodges and Mickie James.

"I don't think that's a good idea Miles." Hayley pipes up.

"Please...i just need to talk to her?" She asks looking me straight in the eye.

"Ok..." I said into the room causing everyone to stare at me as if I'd grown another head.

"Are you sure Lils..." Mickie asked, as she trailed off, i started to wheel my chair over towards Miley.

"I'm sure guys, just give us a few minutes...okay?" I said as David steps out of the group, trying to stare Miley down.

"If you hurt her...I'll set Mickie on you." Dave says, as he hands me my pack of red vines.

"I only want to talk and after that if I'm still not wanted I'll leave...i promise." Miley said as she keeps are eyes glued to mines.

"I wheel out to the front porch and wait for her to join me.

"I finished with Mikayla." I hear from behind me.

"I never asked you to finish with her Miles...i asked for you to leave me alone till i could handle you two being together." I said, as i turned round to face her.

"But i was waiting for you to wake...then Ollie and Jake came out and then i was alone...the nurses and doctors told me and Ollie day in and day out that there was a very high chance you wouldn't wake...i got scared...one night i was on tour, and Mikayla came backstage to congradulate me on a show well done, then one thing led to another the next i know I'm imagining you being awake and pretending it's you I'm with...i really didn't mean to hurt you Lilly...god i love you." She said as i wiped a few of her tears away.

"You didn't hurt me Miley...well you did but that's not the point, the point is, you need to let me heal and do it away from all the drama of the spotlight, sure I'm surrounded by famous people as friends...but they are just like me...normal...what is normal anyway? We go out have fun and I've even started to wiggle my toes. I'm getting there slowly." I said as i feel Mileys left hand touch my right cheek.

"But you don't have to do it with just those guys Lils, you got me Ollie and Jake here too." Miley said, looking deep into her eyes.

"I'm not stopping you from being with who you want to be with." I said, turning my head away from her strong stare.

"But you are stopping me from being with who i wan to be with." She said, as she gently turned my face around to face her.

"And who is that?" I asked her, feeling my heart pound in my chest and my face flush.

"...You..." She whispers softly leaning forwards and capturing my lips in a soft but passionate kiss. Damn I've missed her lips for a whole year and three months.

Miley pulls away slowly and looks deep into my eyes. "I've always loved you Lilly...please, be my girlfriend." She asks.

"Give her some time Miles...let her wake up some more, heck she only been awake for a few days give the girl some time to just catching up with everything." Came the voice of Robbie Ray.

"That's what we're for." came the voices of Taylor Swift, Mickie James, Hayley Williams and David Hodges.

"Family and friends...what more could i wish for." I said smiling widely.

"And i thought we were more than friends." Came Mickie's voice, as she pouted down at me.

"Sorry Mickie. Family is what all you guys are...if you'll have me?" I asked shyly.

"Hell yeah!" Everyone replied at the same time.

I never thought I'd see the day i could pick my family of friends.
