Days passed and before Miley knew it, Her wedding was tomorrow. She went to sleep with her heart thumping. At midnight she woke up. She was really nervous and knew if she didn't talk to someone she would never get any sleep. She really wanted to talk to Lilly, but decided against it (Lilly did NOT like getting woken up.) Then she thought about Lena, but Lena had never been married so she wouldn't be much help. Anna was like Lilly and had to have her sleep. Miley decided to talk to Olivia. She walked down the familiar path to Oliver's house. Or well not his house now. She was going to knock, (Olivia was a very light sleeper.) But was surprised to see that Olivia was already up. Miley knocked on the door.
" Who is it?" Olivia's muffled voice came through the door.
" It's me... Miley!" Miley said through the door. Olivia opened the door.
" Miley! what's wrong? Ohhhhhhh no your not leaving Ollie are you!" Olivia said. At that moment Oliver, who had decided to stay with his parents, was on his way down stairs when he heard Miley's voice. He peeked over the corner and say Miley. "What's she doing here?" He wondered.
" Oh NO! I just... needed someone to talk to..." Miley said.
" Why didn't you go to Robby?" Olivia asked
" Because... I needed to talk to someone... someone like a... Mother." Miley said looking at her feet.
" Oh Miley!" Olivia said hugging her. " What is it?"
"I'm just nervous that's all. What if Oliver decides he doesn't love me, and wishes he never married me?"
" Oh Miley! That could never happen! And I bet he's feeling the same way!" quietly Olivia added, "trust me."
" But what if it does? What if I'm not ready for this commitment?"
" Miley sweetheart you love Oliver, and Oliver loves you. So everything will ok."
" That's what everyone says. But I just don't think I could handle him leaving me!" In the stairway Oliver continued to listen. Olivia looked up and saw her son listening intently.
" Well sweety, have you talked to Oliver about all this?" Olivia said staring straight at Oliver.
" No. I don't want him to feel like I don't wanna marry him cause I do! I really do I just don't know if I'm ready." Miley said. She felt like crying, " I don't wanna disappoint him! I just don't know how to be a wife! I mean, what if I do something wrong? I don't know how to iron a tie, or cook big fancy meals, Or get stains out of clothes, or balance bills, or pay taxes. None of that wife stuff! My mom died when I was little so I never learned!"
" Oh. It will be perfectly fine! I can show you how to do all that stuff! We can set up a date and I can teach you all that. But right now, you need to get some sleep! The guest room is up-
" I know where it is. Thanks Mrs. Oken." Miley said giving her a hug.
Olivia smiled and said, " You know, you can start calling me Olivia."
" Okay I'm just gonna go to bed." Miley said yawning. " Good night Mrs. O- I mean Olivia."
" Goodnight sweetheart." Olivia said. Oliver's heart stopped as he heard her come up the stairs, " Is she staying here?" he wondered. He had just made it into his room when Miley came up the stairs. But instead of going into the guest room, She walked into Oliver's room. He jumped into the closet and held his breath. He looked though the door crack and saw her sit on the bed. Miley looked around. She smiled as she saw his photo album. She got up and opened it. On the first page was a picture of 5 year old Lilly and Oliver. It was Lilly's 5th birthday party and they had icing all over there faces. Miley laughed an turned the page. It was a picture of a 10 year old Lilly on her skateboard, She was wearing what looked like an extremely expensive Easter dress with mud splattered all over it. The next was of Miley and Lilly. They were sitting on Oliver's swing set in the backyard. Underneath the picture in neat handwriting were the words "My Girls". Miley smiled. The next picture was of Lilly, Oliver and Miley. Miley half laughed-half sobbed at the next picture. It was the first time Miley had come over to Oliver's house. Olivia had her arms around Miley while Oliver stood in the background with an amused look on his face. Miley shut the album and sat down again. Oliver looked and saw she was crying. He got up with out a second thought and sat down beside her. She jumped.
" Oliver! What a-are you doing here?" Miley asked.
" Couldn't sleep."
" Same here."
" So what are you doing in here?" Oliver asked motioning to his room.
" Uhhh...well I just...kinda missed the old days." Miley said with a smile. " Do you remember when I used to sneak into your window?"
" How could I forget?"
" Then one day we fell asleep watching Pirates of the Caribbean, and your mom came in to wake you up and said that if I was going to come over to please use the door because I was tracking mud in your room."
" Yeah my Mom surprised me that day. She even gave you a house key."
" I think that was because she wanted us together. She told me the other day that she was so afraid that you were going to bring another girl home one day that she let us do whatever we wanted." Miley said laughing.
" Yeah remember that time we went to the mountains? Just us Lilly, and Jackson?" Miley asked.
" Yeah. What I remember the most is the way you got your dad to say yes!"
" Yeah that was funny. He still doesn't trust me to this day."
FLASHBACK:
" The mountains sound fun Lilly but My dad will never say yes!"
" I think I have an idea!"
" So what am I suppose to do?"
" Get on one knee and beg your dad. And when he says no say, " Okay. I'm going to go over to Oliver's. I'll be back sometime next week." And then when he asked where you bag is say, " Oh I don't need any other clothes, I'll just wash these and wear them home. I wont need any between then." Then he definitely can't say no!"
"LILLY!"
" Hey it works for me!"
" Lilly I don't care If we have to stay here the whole summerI will NEVER say that!"
Next day:
" Daddy can Me and Lilly and Oliver go to the mountains for the summer ? Please?" Miley said.
" Ummm let me think about it bud... NO!" Mr. Stewart replied.
" Please what if we bring Jackson?"
" Nope. End of Story."
" Daddy!"
" Miley!"
" Fine." Miley said. " Well since you wont let me I'm going over to Oliver's-
" Okay."
- I'll most likely be back next week it depends-
" Excuse me?
- We had really planned on us, Lilly and Jackson going to the Carribean! Of course Jackson's so protective it really wouldn't be any fun anyway. This way, we can do whatever we want! -
" Little missy go up-
Miley started walking toward the door-
" Now wait young lady, your not going anywhere and even if you were, where's your stuff?
- Oh I don't need any other clothes, I'll just wash these and wear them home. I wont need any clothes between then." Miley said as she started to walk away.
" Wait! Little Missy get right back in here! Please! Okay okay you can go!"
Miley turned right back around and hugged her father, "Oh thank you thank you thank you!" Miley shouted.
Lilly met her in the hallway, "Told ya it works. I use that on my Dad daily."
" No wonder your Dad asked all those questions before you go anywhere." Miley said laughing.
" Yeah I like the whole, Jackson being protective, part that's what really got him." Lilly said.
" Yep, I'm definitely going to use that one again, do you think it will work on Jackson?"
END FLASHBACK:
Miley and Oliver were laughing.
" Well pretty miss, I suggest you go get some sleep! We got a big day tomorrow!" Oliver said.
" Oh really, what do we have planned for tomorrow?" Miley joked. Oliver laughed. That night Miley fell asleep in Oliver's arms knowing everything would be alright.
" Wake up Sleepy heads!" Miley opened her eyes and saw Olivia standing over her.
" Hey Olivia! Did you sleep good?"
" Yes I did. Looks like you did to." Olivia said laughing. Miley blushed and said, " Well it was really dark in the guest room."
Miley tried to shake Oliver awake but had no such luck. He just rolled over and said, " I want cinnamon rolls for breakfast..."
Olivia sighed and said, " Let me show you a secret." Olivia leaned in over her sleeping son and said, " HANNAH MONTANA"S OUTSIDE!" Oliver just turned over and muttered, "No she's not she's beside me." Olivia looked confused and said, " It used to work..."
Miley smiled and said, " I guess things have changed."
Olivia sighed and said, " Well that was the only way to wake him up! What do I do now?" Than Olivia got a funny look in her eyes, leaned over her son and said, " PIZZA!" Oliver popped up and ran down the stairs.
Miley frowned and said, " That boy's really got to work out his priorities! He chose pizza over me!" Olivia looked confused and just stood up and walked out leaving Miley muttering to herself ...
" Pizza? I mean come on I'm his fiancee!" She walked down the stairs muttering.
