I guess the last chapter really wasn't that great. So for this chapter I will try and make it a really great chapter. So I apologize for the last chapter, this one will be better and the next one will be better.

Miley and the gang are 14- 10th grade (2007)

"You guys know what to do" Mrs. Fletcher said to her students as the fire alarm rang, it was February and the first real chilly day in Malibu. Miley and Nick got up from their seats and over to the door, so that they could go out without getting in trouble. They had already gotten in trouble once for talking and being the last ones out the door for the fire drill. They defiantly didn't want to get in trouble for that again.

Miley weaved around the students figuring if the two of them were one of the first ones out there then they would be able to talk more. Something they weren't able to do in class. Mrs. Fletcher was one of their meanest teachers so far, never allowing them to talk only saying that once they were done their work they could. But once they were down with their work they had yet another thing to do. So Miley was bound and determined to talk to Nick.

Nick followed Miley as best he could through the hallways and out the door and to where they were supposed to meet their teachers. Miley turned around and smiled when they got to the tree, the class was supposed to meet.

"Hallelujah" Miley raised her hands in the air and turned around in a mini circle "I am so happy we got out of her class"

"Tell me about it, if I had to explain that stupid plot of that story one more time than I think I would have thrown the book against the wall" Nick rolled his eyes

"I know I was getting so frustrated I think I was about to cheat of Kenny" Miley said wide eyed

"Yeah that would have been something to see after you go your paper handed back" Nick laughed "A big 'E' on it"

"Yeah you see my head just goes blank when I in that class" Miley explained laughing with him

"So my mom wants to know if you and your dad wants to go to the movies with me, my mom and dad tonight" Nick said

"Yeah I will defiantly go, and I am sure that my dad will go. I mean it's been forever since my dad's hung out with your mom and dad" Miley said excited already about the nights plans.

"We are going to go see 'Because I Said So" Nick tried to remember what movie his mom had told him that morning

"No way! I really want to see that. The trailer looks amazing." Miley said clapping her hands together happily.

"Yeah…"Nick said knowing that it was a chick flick, but he really didn't mind.

He looked over and saw that Miley was now calm and just standing there. He watched as the breeze ran through her hair. She really had grown up, her hair was a lot longer now. She'd grown taller and her awkward early teen years were over, way over. She was leaner, but not so thin that she looked sick, he personality had grown too. She was no longer as shy and she talked out a lot more.

Nick's thoughts were over when a nudge nearly knocked him over.

"Give her your jacket" Lilly whispered in his ear, he didn't even know she was there. But he really looked at her and realized that she was shaking because she was cold. Nick smiled at Lilly thankful that she had helped him. He and Oliver had ended up telling her about his little crush, a few weeks after Lilly and Oliver had started going out.

Nick unzipped his coat and got it half off but by the time he was about to give it to her, he heard someone speak up.

"Here you go Miles"

Nick looked up and saw one of the football players Jack giving her his letterman jacket.

Jack Killer was one of the most popular guys at the school, the quarter back of the school's football team and had all the friends in the world. He was a womanizer, he'd go out with any one with…well let's just say Miley was his next victim.

"Thanks" Miley giggled taking the jacket from his hands and putting her arms through it. Everyone knew that laugh, it was a laugh it was her flirt giggle.

"You've got to be kidding me" Nick said under his breath watching Miley fall under his trap

"Well you should have realized that she was cold while you were staring at her" Joe whispered teasing him in his ear

Nick glared at him and watched as Jack talked to Miley.

"This can't happen" Nick turned around to his friends

"Than don't let it happen" Oliver said pushing Nick towards the two of them.

"Yeah I saw that the last game of the season" Miley said smiling, and was about to say something but was pushed right into Jack as Nick was pushed into Miley.

"Uh…" Nick said straightening out and looking at the two of them

"Nick" Miley said wide eyed embarrassed for running into Jack as she looked at him with an apologetic look on his face "I am so sorry"

"It's all good" Jack said smiling at her and brushing his hand down hers smiling his addicting smile, putting her in this trance that had her wooed..

"So are you warm?" Nick asked lamely not knowing what else to say, except for the whole fact to why Jack was standing here talking to Miley

Miley just kept on giggling, not saying anything back to Nick. Well practically ignoring him would be the way to explain it.

Nick couldn't believe the way she was acting.

"Are you okay?" Joe asked truly concerned for his friend

Nick looked over at Miley and watched as she was still laughing. Nick didn't answer but just started to walk over to the beginning of the doors. The fire drill was over and students had already begun to go in. Nick went into the classroom, grabbed his books and went to his locker, getting out his books that he needed for his homework and went out to the bus to grab a seat.

He couldn't believe Miley, she acted like a little girl who saw NSYNC for the first time. Nick slammed his book bag onto the seat when he sat down and stared out the window waiting for Miley to come onto the bus.

Jack was nothing, Jack was a jock.

"A stupid jock" Nick mumbled under his breath slamming his head on the window. The crowd started thinning and Miley finally showed up.

But that's not all she was with.

Nick's head moved slowly up from the window and looked down to Miley's hands.

"No way" Nick yelled not caring who heard

Miley was holding hands with Jack, and laughing, and flipping her hair, and batting her eyes.

"This is not good" Nick said practically on the edge of his seat watching this in front of him.

Nick watched as the talked, and he was secretly hoping that the bus would close and leave Miley at the school. But it wasn't her fault that Jack was a womanizer.

"Thanks for carrying my books" Miley giggled letting go of Jack's hand and taking her books from him.

"That's what boyfriends do for girlfriends" Jack said, which made Miley blush

They had became official earlier that morning, when he had talked to her in the hallways.

"Well I better go before the bus leaves" Miley said leaning in to give him a hug, she was new to this whole boyfriend girlfriend thing and had never knew what to do.

Jack hugged her back quickly and winked at her before he went off to his own bus. Miley quickly ran on the bus to tell Nick the news. She picked up his book bag and literally bounced onto the seat.

Nick never moved an inch, kept his eyes straight forward.

"Guess what" Miley said excited

Nick rolled his eyes and put on a happy face as he turned around.

"What?"

"Well you know how Jack and I are going out right? Well we are going out tonight you know sort of to make things officially official. It's going to be exciting. Can you come over tonight, I know a girlfriend is supposed to help me out with everything but I want you to" Miley smiled at him "Because you're my best friend"

Nick went wide eyed, his heart fell down into his stomach. First he couldn't believe that Miley didn't tell him about her going out with Jack. And she said that she would go with his family and her dad to the movies.

"So will you?" She pleaded with him

"No" Nick finally said with some hard thinking

"No?" Miley asked shocked that she would actually say no to that "You're my best friend, you're supposed to be there for me. Do these kinds of things with me. Come on Nick"

"First off you didn't even tell me you were going out with Jack" Nick said as the anger rose in him, Miley was about to interrupt him but her stuck up a hand "Second you already said that you were going to the movies with us tonight. And third I wouldn't say we were best friends anymore"

He got up from his seat just before the bus stopped and he got off the bus, with a few more blocks to go. But he decided he would rather walk five blocks than sit on the bus with Miley.

But Miley felt like she was going to cry. She didn't even know what she did wrong, all she thought she did wrong was not say that they were going out. And even then she didn't realize why he would flip out though. When the bus stopped she grabbed her book bag and than realized that he left his and grabbed it. Miley ran off the bus, tears threatening to fall before she was out of sight. No matter how many times they fought, he had never once said that they weren't best friend anymore. Miley ran into her house, thankful that her dad wasn't home yet from work. She threw both of the book bags on the floor and than herself on her bed.

Nick kept on walking, he let his jealousy get the best of him.

"Stupid Jack" Nick mumbled kicking a rock on the ground on the ground as he continued down the sidewalk to his house. "Stupid Me"

Nick regretted not telling Miley that he liked her since the time when he first realized that he did like her. But seeing Miley with another guy made him rethink what he thought in the beginning. He knew that she would never in a million years see him as more than just a friend. To Miley, Nick was just a best friend a person who was there to be a shoulder to cry on, or to talk about her feelings. He felt used, he knew he should feel that way but he did.

Nick walked up the sidewalk to his front door and was greeted by his mother with a big happy smile on her face.

"Hi honey how was school?" She asked hugging him

"Fine" Was his one word answer

"That's good, so did you ask Miley if her and her father wanted to go to the movies with us tonight?" Denise asked already knowing the answer of yes, they always did stuff like that

"Yeah I asked but she had a date tonight" Nick said plopping down on the couch

"Oh honey" Denise said covering her mouth in a little shock, but she went to set next to her son "How are you feeling"

"Fine I guess" Nick shrugged trying not to show much signs of anything.

"I know you like Miley, but maybe it's good that this happened. It would give you and him a chance to see other people out there in your school" Denise said

Nick looked up at his mother completely horrified that his mother knew that he liked Miley.

"Don't give me that look Nicholas Jerry" Denise said playfully "Practically the whole state of California knows that you like that girl"

"Yeah except her" Nick said under his breath

"She will soon realize" That was all she had to say, before she got up from the couch and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Yeah" Nick said rolling his eyes

A few hours later Denise and Paul came down the stairs and stood in front of the TV that Nick had been watching even since he's gotten home.

"Are you sure you don't want to go son?" Paul asked

"Yeah" Nick said moving his head so that he could watch the movie

"Well if you decide you want to come…" Denise started to say

"Which I won't" Nick added

'Than just call ours or Robbie's cell phone we have them with us"

Nick nodded, while Denise went over and kissed her sons forehead muttering an 'I love you' and they were on the way. Leaving a jealous, love sick, feel sorry for himself son at home

"I hate my life" Nick groaned lying down on the couch

Miley….

"He says we're not best friends anymore" Miley said rolling her eyes, along with Lilly who was getting sick of hearing the story.

To Lilly the story was basically: Nick got jealous, Miley is depressed because Nick doesn't want anything to do with her because she is dating the schools man whore, and instead of realizing that Miley is love with Nick she is wallowing the fact that Nick won't return her phone calls.

"Miley are you sure still want to go tonight?" Lilly asked for the millionth time that night

And for the millionth answer it was

"I am positive"

Miley checked herself in the mirror, she was wearing a simple pair of jeans with a pink and yellow baby doll top and flats to match.

"How do I look?" Miley asked turning around to face Lilly

"You look great" Lilly said smiling

"You can't say that" Miley said frustrated

Lilly was so confused

"Nick says that all the times, you have to say something else" Miley said crossing her arms around her chest

"You look gorgeous" Lilly offered

"Not that either" She shook her head

"It suits you" Lilly said shrugging, but Miley shook her head and sighed

"Never mind" She said going out of her room

The two of them walked down the stairs and sat on the couch, her dad had left with Denise and Paul. So that left just Lilly and Miley alone. Miley looked at her cell phone, only five minutes until Jack would be there.

"Have fun tonight" Lilly said half smiling at Miley, she knew that Miley needed to find out on her own. And that by going on this date with Jack that she would realize that there is only one guy for her.

A knock on her door snapped Lilly out of her thoughts. Miley squealed a little as she got up and flicked her hair. And turned towards Lilly.

"This is going to be the best date ever" Miley said hugging her friend and going to the door, where all things would change.
