[a/n] heyyy people. I'm so so sorry for taking so long to update;; its jjust that each time I start typing I really don't know what to type next. I sent a sneak preview to everyone who reviewed except for Patricia since she already knows how this story is going to end and Hunter because for some reason I couldn't go to you profile. Thanks for reviewing. Hopefully this chapter is long and if it isn't I'm sorry to say my hate for typing and putting my ideas on black and white overcame me. Happy reading. Enjoy. Oh yeah follow me /evaxlove [i'm a newbee to it and none of my friends will make an account =( ] I bold faced the things that were part of the sneak preview.

"Anyways Miley you still have to tell me what's wrong," he said concerned. I was wishing he forgot about that.

Well its now or never.

I rather take never; so I said, "I don't love you," as clearly as I could without showing a hint of lying. I looked into his eyes and I wasn't sure what he was thinking.

"….."Nick said.

"Miley, please stop lying to me; just this once will you tell me the truth," Nick said looking at my eyes holding on to my hands. It just pained me so much to see him like this but I can't tell him why.

So I took a deep breath and said, "I think were better off as friends or you should just start forgetting me." I watched him while awaiting his response. I didn't know how he'd react or say for his face was unreadable.

"Fine I'll forget you, I'll forget how much I love you, I'll forget you carefree laugh, your beautiful smile, I'll forget how light and blue your eyes are, I'll forget you & I'll forget my heart and soul for you," he said in his whispered tone his hands still clinging on to mines his brown eyes watering. I couldn't stand it I started biting my lip trying to stop the tears from falling as I watched him get up a walk over to the door not once looking back.

Why does this have to happen to me? I can't just let him go.

So without taking another second to think I called out, "Nick." My voice still hoarse was barely audible and Nick was already out the door. I got up from the bed and rushed over to Nick and grabbed him by the hand. I pulled him back into the room and wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him into a tight hug. I began to cry into his chest as I felt his arms wrap around my back, we were as close as possible. Neither one of us wanted to let go. I looked up to see he had tears rolling down his face as well which I wiped off and then I crushed my mouth on to his in a kissed that was filled with such urgency and eagerness. This kiss was like no other I literally felt sparks or am I just imagining it since the kiss was so perfect. I slowly parted my lips as Nick slipped his tongue into my mouth. The kiss became a make out session before we both separated in need of oxygen.

I looked up to see a grin on Nick's face and I knew telling him the truth would be the right choice.

I softly whispered into his ear, "I love you."

Nick in response picked me up and I wrapped my legs around his waist as kissed me.

He put me down on the bed and untangled himself from me and sat across from me on the bed.

I looked up him confused and then he said, "Miley, tell me why you wanted me to forget you and why you kept saying you didn't love me,"

I took a deep breath and grabbed a pillow from behind me hugging it tightly. I looked down and then quietly said, "Nick, you know how I'm a patient at this hospital right. Well I ended up here because I was in a car crash. My sister, (I took another deep breath), died in the crash. I was in coma for weeks. My parents left me after my first week in coma. I was supposed to go to foster care and now-now my d-d-dad's coming back." I started crying at the thought of my dad coming back for me.

I wept uncontrollably into his chest as his arm wraps around me; I wished that moment could last forever I couldn't imagine being anywhere else but safely in his arms.

He wiped my tears away and then softly said, "Mi, your dad's coming back so what's wrong with that."

I shook my head furiously in protest and then said, "Nick you don't understand my dad's horrible man I can't, no I won't go with him. He wants me to move to Tennessee! I can't go there I'd die without seeing you almost every day." I began crying even more.

Nick gently stroked my back as I cried into his chest while saying, "Mile, it's going to be alright we'll find a way out of this. Don't worry, everything going to be alright."

I wanted to believe those words were true but I knew otherwise. I wiped the last of my tears and I was about to ask Nick about his brother when his cellphone rang.

"Hello," he said answering the phone.

"Right Now?" he said a few seconds later, "Alright, Bye."

He hung up the phone and turned his head so he faced directly at me and then said, "Miles, I have to go home but don't worry I'll be back tomorrow." He kissed me on the mouth and just before he got up and left he said, "I love you."

Before I could even get a word out he was already out the door.

----Later----

I was lying down on the bed daydreaming about Nick when I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in," I said as I started to sit up and fix my self.

I saw May walk in with a bag in her hand and a warm smile on her face. Her smile and cheeriness was contagious I couldn't help but smile as well.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Nothing really, thought I should stop by. I bare gifts! Chocolate Chip Cookies!" she said excitedly. I couldn't help but giggle at her excitement as she handed me a cookie.

"Oh my gosh! These cookies are beyond amazing," I exclaimed. These cookies really were delicious.

"I know, I get them from this small bakery near my house," she said and then handed me another as the one I had before was devoured by my mouth.

"Hmm," I said while munching on the cookie.

"So what's new with you?" she asked me.

I wiped my face of cookie crumbs and then said quietly, "My dad said he's coming back to take me to Tennessee."

I started playing with the hem of the hospital gown when May spoke up and said, "That's great, you get to go and be with your family." I looked up to see her giving me a warm smile.

"I want to stay in California; I like it here," I said, "and my dad's a bad man."

"How is he bad?" she questioned.

"I never told you the whole story of what happened that night I was in the crash. I'll tell you if you promise me not to tell anyone else," I said quietly.

"I promise, you can trust me Miley," she said softly.

"So it all started……" I said

*Flashback*

I and Brandy were sitting on the bed in our room.

"We need to find a way to get to the concert tonight," she said holding the two concert tickets.

"Mom and dad would never let us go. Mom wouldn't care though, she won't even notice if we ran away. Dad is a different story. He's drunk beyond belief and you know the drill. He's going to be banging on the door if 5 seconds. 5..4..3…2…1.

"O-open up this door you good for nothing whores," my dad slurred as he pushed open the door.

My dad stormed into the room anger etched across his faced as he fumed at us. He looked as if he was ready to strike us while just stood there not sure of what to do. He had a empty beer bottle on his hand that I was sure he was going to hit us with.

He grabbed me by the hair and threw me across the room; I bit my lip trying to stop from crying. He threw the beer bottle at Brandy at her stomach. She yelped in pain. He started hitting us more and then he fell unconscious on the floor. Brandy and I took this opportunity to drag him out of room and onto his bed in the other room. We saw our mom smoking in the kitchen talking to someone on the phone. She didn't even notice us walk by her dragging our dad. We then ran back to our room and put on the three sets of locks.

"Miley we can go now dad's knock out he wont notice us gone," she said.

"I'm not sure," I said.

"Come on we'll sneak out the window and take the car. We'll be back until anyone notices," she pleaded giving me the puppy dog eyes.

"Oh alright, just let me change," I said.

We left 10 minutes later.

After the concert was over on our way back home we got hit by a drunken driver.

*end of flashback*

"So yeah, I have a drunken abusive father and mom who just don't care about me. So I don't want to go home with them," I said slowly trying not to cry over the memory.

"Oh Miley. I'll find a way out of this," she said while pulling me into a hug.

"I got an idea," she said happily while grinning at the thought of her idea.

"Okay…"I said unsure.

[a/n] sorry this story isn't as long as I thought it would be. Anyway review so I'll have some drive to write the next chapter on what the idea is. Bye for now. Oh yeah read my new oneshot and review. Tell me if I should fix it up and continue it.
