CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE
"You were great tonight!" Nick told Miley, sitting down on the couch next to her, completely ignoring Jake who was on her other side.
"Thanks!" She smiled nervosly, unconsciously moving closer to Jake, kissing him again was not an option, especially in front of Jake.
"Nicholas, Joseph, why don't you two run across the street and get your Guitar Hero things? I'm sure Jake and Miley wold love to play with you!" Denise suddenly suggested and Miley had to stop herself from jumping up and giving her a big hug.
"Yes, Mom!" The two boys said in dull tones, trudging out of the house, as soon as they were out of sight they glanced around before shimmering out of San Francisco to Malibu.
"Wait!" Nick put his arm out to stop Joe from advancing, they had rematerialized just outside the Stewarts property.
"Ha! I knew you wouldn't be able to do it, you like her!" Joe smirked, trying to advance again.
"It's not that, there's a spell up that senses evil, if we go inside their property it'll go off and allert someone!" Nick told him, staring intently at the border of their where he could see a faint line tracing around the house.
"So hurry up and block it, we have to hurry, dude!" Joe ordered impatiently and Nick glared, closing his eyes and focusing his sense blocking power on the entire house.
"I don't think I can hold it long, it was done by someone really powerful." He told his rother, slight sweat beads starting to form on his forehead already and the older one nodded, knowing that meant he would be doing all the killing tonight.
The two crept up the stairs and into the first bedroom they saw, Joe quietly took out a poisoned athame and cut sliced quickly across Jackson throat, he didn't even have a chance to wake p before the blood loss and poison killed him, next the entered a room that looked to be Miley's and Nick looked around sadly, she'd been here only hours before. After that they made their way to Robby's room, he was sleeping restlessly and had the cordless phone clutched tightly in his hand, waiting for his daughter to call for the New Year. Having seen his little brothers look when they were in Mileys room and his hesitation to enter Robby's Joe thrust the athame into his hands and pointed at the father.
"I can't!" Nick denied, trying to hide behind keeping the block up so he wouldn't have to actually kill Miley's father.
"Just do it!" Joe hissed, neither one of them noticing Robby starting to wake up.
"But, what about the spell?" Nick tried again, desperate not to kill him, though not sure why.
"Who are you?" Robby's voice startled them and they both turned to see the man aproaching. "What are you doing in my house?"
Nick threw the athame in panic, having accidently dropped his sense block on the house and grabbed Joe, shimmering out before he could even see where the knife ended up. By the time they appeared in the house back in Prescott Street Robby had crumpled to floor, dead, Nick's shot had been right through his heart.
Power Of Five
"Hey, I think I left the... Stove on next door, come check with me, Andy!" Prue ordered, her eyes widened i horror for a moment, the spell around the Stewarts house had been activated, before waiting for a reply she dragged her beloved out the back door and started towards their house in the pitch darkness, as soon as they were in the cover of their home Andy orbed them to Malibu to see what had set of the alarms in their heads.
"Sorry it took so long, Joe got tangled up in the cords!" Nick apologized, when the two brothers came back to the Halliwell with the game they had used as a cover to go kill Robby and Jackson. Jake was playing with the boys on the floor, it was some made up game involving toy cars and robots, the adults were all talking together, Kevin was with Jake and the kids, and Miley was sitting on the couch with her sketch book, drawing something as she kept glancing back and forth between the five boys on the floor and her book.
The night continued, The teenagers play Guitar Hero, the kids fell asleep on the floor and Prue and Andy never returned. Miley felt that familiar excited feeling in the pit of her stomach as the countdown to 2009 started.
10 She glanced at the two 14-year-olds on either side of her.
9 She knew she had to kiss one of them at midnight, it was tradition to the kiss person next to you.
8 She inched a little closer to Jake, still not trusting herself around Nick.
7 Prue and Andy returned to San Francisco, they had been gone for three hours now.
6 Jake casually rested his hand on her waist, he was going to be the one to kiss Miley, not Nick.
5 Prue and Andy came back into the house looking depressed.
4 Miley licked her lips in anticipation.
3 Jaake drew her even closer and Miley looked up at him, excitement coursing through her.
2 Prue and Andy were walking towards them, completely un-noticed by them of course.
1 Jake swooped down and captured Miley's lips in the one of the most intense kisses of her life before the countdown even finished. She gladly wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer, he traced his tongue over her bottom lip and she opened her mouth to him... Who cares if everyone was watching them?
Suddenly Miley was pulled away from Jake and another set of lips was covering her still tingling ones, these were kissing her roughly, though not hard enough to hurt her and the next thing she knew she gave herself to this kisser as well, but keeping her mouth shut when he asked for entrance - she still had enough sense in her mind to know that french kissing with this person didn't feel quite right... Yet.
Jake pulled Miley off of Nick and she looked around wildly at everyone staring at the trio, mainly her, and she turned a mixture of bright blushing red and sickly pale white after realizing what she had done, she still had one hand resting on Jakes chest where it had fallen when Nick pulled her to him, and her toher hand was at his neck, where she had held him to her.
"Miley, we need to talk!" Prue's voice interrupted her hazy brain and she looked at her oldest sister with wide eyes and allowed herself to be led away. "It's about your Dad and brother!"
Prue didn't need to continue, though she did, Miley already knew what had happened from their looks and her voice. Daddy and Jackson were dead! There wasn't a doubt in her mind, which was only confirmed when Prue said those exact words.
Miley's blissful, happy feeling that she got from kissing Jake and Nick quickly disappeared and was replaced by numb depression.
Daddy and Jackson are dead!
The words kept repeating themselves in her mind, no matter how much she tried to stop them, Prue pulled her into a hug as she just stood there.
Daddy and Jackson are dead!
