Miley's POV (Last day of tour)
FINALLY! The last day of touring. Wow, it went by so fast. Our last concert is back at home in Malibu, so we're close to home. Lilly and Joe have glued to the hip since they hooked up. They keep looking at each other and smiling. I swear, it's like they're a married in-love couple! Nick think Lola is dating Joe, not Lilly. I constantly have to remind them that Joe's dating Lilly not Lola. Kevin and Kat seemed closer then ever also, ever since Kevin went to get Kat when she disappeared for, like, half an hour. Oliver is always trying to beat Nick in Guitar Hero, he always fails miserably poor guy. "Hey guys, we're here!" exclaimed Joe. Lilly and Joe yelled happily like the kids they really are inside, jumping up and down and everything. Kevin gave me the look he's been giving me lately. The 'When-will-you-tell-Nick' look.
"What?" I asked innocently. Honestly, I don't know how to tell Nick, but, I'm positive he'll be okay in the end. Boy, was I ever wrong.

After the concert, we had our last meet-and-greet with all the fans with backstage passes. Stella was there again and she had announced to us that she'd be living in Malibu for the rest of the year with her aunt and uncle, then she has to move back to her parents back in Arizona. Oliver seemed really happy though. "Hey Hannah! Guess what?" yelled Nick as we all hopped onto the bus for a ride home.
"What?" I asked.
"Your song, 'Nobody's Perfect' made it to number one on the charts!" announced Nick. My jaw dropped.
"No way!" I said. He nodded so much, his curly hair was bouncing too. I screamed and everyone covered their ears. After, I finished everyone congratulated me. I kept on squealing with excitement that I squeezed the life out of Nick when I hugged him. That's when I lost it. Forgetting that I was still Hannah, I kissed him. I saw a flash. Oh my gosh! I am so stupid. I pulled away. Nick was shocked, his face mixed with surprise and confusion.
"Oh! This'll make a great headline Nick! Cheating on your girlfriend, huh?" snickered a voice. I turned around to see a photographer run away with a picture of Nick and HANNAH kissing. Great, I just screwed up my boyfriend's reputation. Big Rob saw everything happen and wasn't able to catch the Sleaze photographer. I turned back to Nick who was pacing and rambling on and on to himself. He looked up at me. Everyone else in the room was just as surprised.
"Why'd you do that Hannah? You know, I have a girlfriend. She's the best thing that has ever happened to me. She's going to hate me when she sees that headline." said Nick. I looked down. Kevin knowing I had no choice made sure all the doors and windows were closed, Lola and Joe closed all the blinds. Oliver looked at me sympathetically.
"Nick, I need to tell you something." I said quietly. I motioned for him come into my room so we could speak privately.
"Just tell me right here." said Nick. I figured he'd be stubborn.
"Nick, I've been keeping something from you. I want you to know too." I told him. I pulled off my wig like I did with Kevin and Joe. My curly brown hair letting loose. Nick looked at me with shock, he also looked mad and disappointed.
"I'm Miley Stewart. Your girlfriend, your neighbor. Lola and Mike are really Lilly and Oliver, they keep me company while I'm Hannah." I started to explain as Lola took off her wig and Mike took off his goatee. Nick looked really pissed.
"How come you guys aren't surprised?" He asked calmly. His question was directly for his brothers who stood motionless. Kat seemed surprised too, trying to comprehend what was going on at the moment. Kevin opened his mouth to say something. I stopped him.
"Kevin and Joe found out by accident. I was going to tell all of you at the same time, Nick. Believe me when I say that. I just didn't know how to tell you." I replied looking up to see his face composed of mixed emotions.
"So. You kept this secret for who knows how long. You lied to me...I'M YOUR BOYFRIEND, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD! YOU CAN AT LEAST TRUST ME AND TELL ME THE TRUTH!" yelled Nick. I trembled with fear, he has never spoken to me like this...ever.
"Nick..." started Kevin.
"YOU STAY OUT OF IT! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU NEVER TOLD ME! WE'RE BROTHERS OF THE SAME FLESH AND BLOOD! WHY COULDN'T YOU TELL ME? AND YOU! THEY MAY HAVE FOUND OUT BY ACCIDENT, BUT YOU COULD'VE TOLD ME TOO! WHY DIDN'T YOU, MILEY? WHY?" He yelled even louder as he pointed at me in disgust. I tried to keep a straight face, but, the tears started streaming down my face and Lilly came over to comfort me.
"NICK! Like Kev told me, it wasn't our secret to spread." said Joe. Nick looked at me crying. I knew he had a soft spot for crying girls, I couldn't help but cry. That didn't stop him from yelling. My phone started ringing telling me I had a text message. It was Jake. "Jake..." I whispered. He was losing his composure and wrapped up this conversation harshly.
"YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M OUT OF HERE! YOU CAN GO CRAWLING BACK TO JAKE FOR ALL I CARE! JUST...JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!" screamed Nick. As if on cue, the bus stopped in front of the Jonas' house. Nick grabbed his guitar and one of his suitcases and he stormed out the door to be greeted by his mother who saw how mad he looked and knew he had to sort this out on his own. The rest of the Jonas' and Kat left the bus, they were sad how the conversation ended.
I continued crying on my knees. In the past ten minutes, I had been dumped, yelled at, and told off by the one guy who means everything to me. Lilly and Oliver both hugged me and I wanted to be alone. They helped out with all the luggage and departed for their own homes with families awaiting their return. Daddy came into the bus and saw me crying. He knew better then to ask, he carried me into my room as if I were three years old again. He sang me a lullaby to sooth me and left me room.

I got off my bed and slipped into my pajamas. I noticed something on my dresser. It was the pair of flats Nick had bought for me the day he asked me out. We never had too many memories together because of the tour, but the memories we were able to share meant so much to me. I threw the flats against the wall of my room angerily. It hurt too much to see them, it reminded me so much of him.
I decided to go down to the kitchen for some ice cream and eat away my depression. When I got downstairs, I found a basket wrapped up with a tag on it lying on the counter. I was curious and walked over to it. I read the tag:
To: Miley Ray Stewart, the girl I love
I just wanted to let you know how much I miss you and how I wish I was home so we can spend time together.
Remember I'm always thinking of you. I know we've only been together for a few weeks, but, believe when I say this, I love you.
You mean everything to me.
Yours truly,
Nick Jonas, the boy who's head over heels for you
P.S. I had the perfume made just for you.
Tears welled up in my eyes again. It was sent to my house while we were on tour, when we were still together. I unwrapped the present carefully. In the basket was a teddy bear holding a deep red heart that read, 'I love you'. There was a bouquet of roses that had wilted while I was away. Lastly, there was a bottle of perfume. He had it made just for me. I missed him so much. How could I move on from him when he's so sweet?
I wish I had told him sooner, maybe he wouldn't have been so mad. Everywhere I go, something reminds me of Nick. It's so annoying! I wiped the remaining tears off my tear-stained cheek and grabbed a tub of cookies 'n' cream ice cream, I grabbed a spoon and I was good to go.
Halfway through the movie, I had finished the tub of ice cream. What can I say? I eat when I'm depressed. I sighed. During all the love scenes, I pictured that it was me and Nick hugging and kissing, whispering in each other's ear. Argh! Why is my life so complicated? Maybe I should try to move on. It was worth a shot. I mean, come on, he's only one guy. Why am I so worked up on him anyways? I've cried endless tears for him, why else should I cry for him anyway? After what he yelled at me, why bother crying?
I contemplated on my thoughts and pondered them thoroughly. It was three in the morning, no one would be awake at this hour. I could at least try. I picked my phone and skimmed through my list of contacts. I stopped at a certain name and I clicked the call button. His name is...Jake Ryan.

Someone's POV
Where the heck was he? I specifically told him to meet me here in the backroom of the bar. I heard a door slam and footsteps coming closer. Finally, the Sleaze photographer was here. "You got the picture?" I asked him. He nodded and showed it to me. I smirked, satisfied with his work. I was about to grab the camera. He pulled it away from my grasp.
"Eh! If you want the picture, fork over the moola!" said the man. I raised my eyebrow at him. "Moola?" I asked.
"Yeah, ya know. The green stuff, cha-ching, money, cash!" exclaimed the photographer. I pulled out about two hundred dollars in bills and handed them over to him. He smiled, grabbed the money and threw the camera at my face. He ran out the door like a food-deprived man. I looked down at the picture once more.
"Ha! Jonas, you are so freaking screwed." I mumbled to myself. My phone began to ring. I knew who it was. It was only a matter of time until she comes back to me. I answered my phone.
"Hey Miley" I grinned staring into the picture worth thousands of dollars.
