Chapter 13

Miley

Miley knew it was wrong. Joe told her to stay away, but she had to see him one last time, even if he was in a coma. She walked into the hospital room where Nick was lying in a hospital bed. He was wearing one of those awful hospital gowns, his hair was all messy, and he looked so peaceful with his eyes closed.

Miley sat down in the chair by his bed and took his hand. "Hey," she croaked. Her throat was dry and closed up. "It's Miley. I know that Joe told me not to see you but I had to. And unless this is like that episode of Hannah Montana and you are outside your body watching me, then you probably can't hear me but that doesn't matter." She swallowed back her tears. "I'm sorry I did this to you Nick. I am sorry that I love Liam and that I didn't wait for you. I wanted to but you never know what'll happen, right?" Nick I need you to wake up and get better. You are so important to me and I can't imagine my life without you in it. You have to wake up so we can tell Joe that he's stupid and I don't have to stay away from you. Can you give me a sign that you're going to wake up?" Miley waited and nothing happened. She hung her head down and started to sob.

Then she heard a noise she never thought she'd get giddy to hear. Nick coughed a dry hacking cough. Miley looked up to see Nick's eyes slowly opening. She thought she was dreaming but then she realized it was no dream. She grabbed a glass of water and handed it to him. She helped him drink some.

"I must be in heaven because the most beautiful angel is giving me water," Nick said weakly.

Miley gently wrapped him in a hug. "You're not dead Nick, thank God!" Miley let go of him. "I'm going to get your mom and doctor." She started for the door.

"Miley?" Nick said.

"Yeah?" Miley turned back.

"Thank you."

"For what?"

"Not listening to Joe and coming to see me."

"You heard?"

"Every word, just like that Kate Hudson movie."

Miley smiled. "I'll be back." She said and went to get Denise and the doctor.

Nick

Nick got hugged and kissed by his mother and father when they came into see him. He then, of course, got yelled at for not taking care of himself. He apologized and his mom was just happy he was okay.

Nick has finally gotten back on track with his medicine and eating better. When you have a broken heart you do stupid stuff, that's what Nick discovered.

"No, Joe! That was stupid! I can accept Miley and Liam's relationship and move on while still chilling with them." They were on the set of JONAS and were taking a break in Nick's dressing room.

"But I just thought…" Joe began.

"Well you shouldn't. Joe, if I'm around it then it'll help me get over it faster. If I'm away from it, then I'll just miss her more or think that I'm over it and when I get back around them I'll realize that I am not over it and then get in a coma again. When you fear something you have to overcome the fear. I'm afraid of getting over the love of my life but I've gotta do it, so I am."

"You know, I am really tired of people interrupting me and then reciting a novel. I'm sorry I meddled, little brother and I'm sorry I blamed it all on Miley. I was just mad and needed someone to take it out on," Joe said.

"Then buy a punching bag, don't yell at your best friend."

"Yes sir," Joe said and opened the door to leave and found Miley getting ready to knock.

She lowered her arm. "Hey Joe, am I allowed to be here or can I still not talk to my BFF?" she said bitterly.

"Miley, I am sorry I said that. I just needed to take my anger out on someone. Hug?" He apologized and they hugged.

Miley walked past Joe, "Well, buy a punching bag."

"That's what Nick said." Joe said and left.

"Hey Miles, what are you up to?" Nick asked.

"Well, I was next door on the set of Hannah Montana and I thought I'd come check on ya. How are you feeling today?"

"Like everyone is bugging me about how I am feeling today."

"Oh, I'm sorry." Miley's phone started buzzing. "I gotta go back to the set. Call me if you need anything. Bye Nicky." Miley winked at him and left.

Nick sat on his sofa and sighed. "This is gonna be harder than I thought."
