Chapter 14

Joe POV

"Good morning, wait afternoon, you slept for ages" I stated looking at Nick who sighed sitting down, we were still getting over the flu after a week luckily we'd only had two concerts and managed to get through them both.

"Where's Lucas?" Nick muttered sitting down, and Kevin gazed up from the TV where we were watching a movie. That was a good question he was here like three minutes ago and he'd just disappeared…

"Going to get lunch, he is going to try and force feed Miley again" Kevin mumbled casually and Nick sighed sitting down as I handed him a fruit salad I'd had for breakfast…we were all trying to be healthy since our little flu epidemic.

"We've taken like most of the crew down now…the bands come down with it as well" Kevin stated, while we were thankfully all over it Miley being the genius she was helping us had managed to get it and had given it to Kenny who had pretty much spread it to everyone.

"I still find it amusing that she has it worse then us, and yet she still won't let anyone look after her" I stated with a sigh, we'd thankfully convinced Kenny to let us have Miley but then she got sick. So she'd been given the luxury oh having a bed while we kept our bunks.

"You're back, did you get us food" I said looking at Lucas who held like five bags and rolled his eyes and nodded opening the bags pulling out all the stuff we needed to keep us alive.

"I better go feed Miley then…" He stated, we were talking like she was our pet at the moment; we'd had her awake and acting normal for a total of an hour on our bus but since that day we'd been forcing her to eat and take medication.

"I'll come with, see if she's gotten any better" I stated as he opened a box of two minute noddles and started to boil the kettle to make it as Lucas turned around with a grin on his face…yeah that was real healthy.

"Oh and Kenny wants to see Miley, he thinks we've killed her…the girls are missing her supposedly and they got in a fight when he told them she was on our bus now…They think that we can't look after her as well as they can" Lucas stated as I heard Nick give a sigh, that would be right…they get her drunk off her head and they are complaining we can't look after her.

"Well by any chance she might be good enough for tomorrows show…" Kevin stated hopefully and I raised my eyebrows and shook my head I doubted it…

"Oh and it's made media headlines too, supposedly it was on a trashy gossip site that we'd got the flu and infected everyone. And Nick they found out your mystery date with the girl is actually a dancer…as of yet they haven't found her name…hopefully they don't find out it's Miley…" Lucas stated and gave a nod, it was only so long before we were going to have to tell her…

"Right…what else do I need to give her?" Lucas said as I stood up and grabbed the painkillers and antibiotics as he nodded…

"You know if she's been taking her medication for her heart?" Kevin asked and I looked at Lucas, I hadn't even thought of that he gave a shrug as we opened the door we'd just have to ask her. We walked through the bunks and Lucas knocked on the door, he pushed it open when there was no reply.

"Miley lunch time…" He stated walking over and rubbing her shoulder putting his hand on her head as she let out a groan and I turned on the light…she still looked like absolute crap…

"Come on it's two minute noodles…" Lucas stated as I pulled her up and she leaned on me her eyes half open…it was really knocking her about I mean we only were like this for 24 hours she'd been like it for at least 4 days…

"Thanks…" She mumbled taking it from him as I put my hand on her head, she didn't have a fever anymore, which was good. Lucas handed her the tablets, which she took with no questions asked…

"You been taking your heart meds?" He asked and she shook her head and we both looked at her annoyed as I wrapped my arm around her, she was becoming like all of our little sister.

"Where are they?" He asked and she indicated towards her bag and he went over as she ate some of the noodle and Lucas shuffled through her bag finally pulling out a container of the tablets and reading it before handing her one.

"What happens when you don't take them?" Lucas asked and she gave a shrug having it as I moved away from her…

"I feint…" She mumbled and we both nodded, well good thing we reminded her we waited until she finished the noddles and Lucas took them as we turned off the light and instantly she was back to sleep.

"She is so cute when she's asleep, wish she'd stay like that" Lucas said and I gave a laugh as we closed the door and walked back outside as the bus started moving and Kevin looked at us.

"Okay I know this most likely isn't the best time, but seeing she's half out of it we need to tell her soon…" Kevin stated and I instantly shook my head, it still wasn't the right time…

"Joe come on, she is going to be staying with us…if we say something by accident we'll screw it all up it's better we tell her" Lucas said and I saw Nick shake his head.

"If we tell her she won't stay on the bus, it's going to absolutely break her…" Nick stated and we all looked at him, it was just better keeping her in the dark for now…

Nick POV

"And you think keeping this from her is going to help, she is going to be upset when ever we tell her but I think she'd rather hear it from us now and not later…" Kevin suddenly yelled and we all looked at him and I stood up annoyed…

"We can't tell her, Billy doesn't even know she's alive, I think he has a right to know before she does…" Joe stated quickly following Kevin's annoyed facial expression and he looked at me…

"She deserves to know more then he does, he's the one who gave her up" Kevin yelled at me as Lucas jumped up and moved towards us.

"She 16, her brother is abusing her and you think dropping on her that her sister was my ex girl friend and that we've been lying to her for months is a good idea" I yelled at him and Joe looked at me surprised, yeah I knew I said ex and I meant it Kylie wasn't here anymore and we had to looked at this situation seriously.

"Well the months are only going to get longer aren't they Nick, it's a wonder no one has realized yet that she is almost identical to Kylie…people are suspicious" Lucas stated seriously and I looked at him annoyed.

"Well you're the one who wanted to find her aren't you…if you hadn't told us we would never have even known about her being Kylie's stupid twin" I yelled as Joe just gave a sigh looking at them.

"She needs to know and if you don't tell her I will" Kevin yelled as we all heard a bang and turned around to see Miley leaning on the door, she looked weak but better then I'd seen her…

"What's going on?" She mumbled and instantly Kevin went to say something and I forcefully pushed him onto the couch looking at him like I was about to hit him because I was considering it.

"Miley maybe you should go back to bed…" Joe said harshly at her as Kevin suddenly jumped up and slammed me against the bench, and I looked at him annoyed…

"We're going to tell her…" He stated staring at me as he let go of me. Anger boiled up in me and I clenched my fist and swung it directly at his face, I stared in shock as he instantly feel to the ground as Miley let out a scream.

"Nick what the hell, Miley get to bed now" Joe screamed as I stood looking at Kevin holding his nose annoyed, I shook my head angry and went straight away towards the bunks not even noticing Miley until it was to late and I collided with her.

"Nick…Jesus Christ…. Miles you okay?" Lucas yelled as I looked at Miley on the floor looking at me confused, as Lucas pushed himself passed me and pulled her up as the anger came again.

"Get away from her now" I yelled at him and he looked at me and instantly let go of her as I took her arm and forced her back into the bedroom and slammed the door as she looked at me…scared.

"Miles…I am sorry I didn't mean to hurt you" I whispered and her eyes instantly changed again and I sighed wrapping my arm around her and forcing her into bed as she sighed looking at me…

"Why did you hit Kevin?" She whispered coughing as I sighed laying down next to her, and gentle moving the hair out of her face giving a weak smile…

"Nothing you need to worry yourself about, you just need to concentrate on getting better…" I whispered and she looked at me uncertain and sighed putting her head on my shoulder…

"Why do you always fights with them…?" She whispered and I sighed rubbing her back as she closed her eyes…

"Because they're my brothers and some times my opinion doesn't match theirs…that's why I hit Kevin" I whispered and she sighed and moved her head again trying to get comfortable…

"I wish I could hit Dan…" She muttered and I gave a laugh leaning my head on hers, and taking her hand in mine.

"Me too…" I whispered as a silence fell between us and I heard her breathing begin to slow down until I knew she was asleep, I let out a sigh brushing the hair out of her face…if only she knew why we were fighting.

I closed my eyes and wrapped my arm around her as she moved her head onto my chest, I didn't want this moment to ever disappear. I hadn't felt like this in so long and I at the moment for the first time Kylie wasn't the girl I was feeling emotions towards it was the one fast asleep lying on me.

A banging woke me up and I let out a groan seeing Miley still fast asleep laying on me, I gazed at the clock seeing the time was around 5pm we'd been asleep for a while yet I was still tired. I looked down on her and slowly moved my head and kissed her gentle on the head and moved away from her…she gave a murmur and rolled over as I got up and opened the door.

"Hey…she okay?" Joe whispered gazing past me and I gave a nod closing the door as he looked at me up and down.

"You okay, you got pretty angry?" Joe asked and I just shrugged and he grabbed my shoulder and I gazed at him confused.

"Kevin's pretty pissed, they both want to tell her…I don't think we're going to be able to stop them Nick…" Joe whispered, and in truth I knew we couldn't avoid the truth eventually.

"It just doesn't seem fair, I don't want to loose her and I know that we are going to if we tell her…" I whispered and Joe gave a sigh…we'd been put in such a bad position…and I needed advice very soon.
