Chapter 25
Nick POV
"You're face now looks like something a toddler would draw." Noah stated giving a grin, "It's kind of cool, can I paint my bedroom that purple color on his face?" She pressed the bruise as I winced in pain,
"Ouch Noah that hurts…"
Noah laughed at me smirking. "That's what you get for lying to my brothers Nick, well at least everything is settled now."
Suddenly a paper bag flew across the room and hit Noah directly in the head, I instantly began pissing myself laughing. Noah however turning looking to where the bag had come from, her face fuming at Miley. I saw the two sisters lock eyes...great here comes a fight.
"MILEY WHAT WAS THAT FOR?"
"You're going to be late, there is your lunch…now walk to school."
"Walk?"
"What do you not understand English?" Miley hissed at her.
Miley was in a terrible mood at the moment, I was pretty sure she had PMS but I wasn't going to question it because that was a topic I knew never to bring up. Noah looked at her in complete shock, I doubted she had ever walked to school in her life but both Miley and me had work this morning and it was in totally opposite directions to her school. Noah's mouth opened about to say something, but Miley was ready to stop any rebuttal…
"Close your mouth and move your legs." Miley stated,
"Walk? Miley it's like an hour…"
"Well you better get moving," Miley responded and Noah rolled her eyes, she grabbed her lunch throwing in her school bag. I looked away from Miley's gaze knowing I would most likely be her next target.
"Bye Nick…" Noah stated sweetly.
"See you tonight Noah."
"Where is my goodbye?" Miley questioned as Noah raised her hand,
"Bye cow…"
"What did you call me?" Miley hissed looking at Noah pissed off.
"I said bye ciao,"
"Sure you did."
Noah quickly headed for the door looking at me nervously as she walked, she nodded for me to follow her which I quickly decided to do, seeing I didn't want to be anywhere near Miley's wrath right now. It was our first day back at work today and finally we were going out into the media world, so maybe that explained why Miley was in such a bad mood…
"What's up?" I questioned as I closed the kitchen door.
Noah stared at me for a moment taking in a deep breath, "I'm just going to put it out there, but Miley is in a really bad mood if you hadn't already noticed…By any chance she isn't…"
"Isn't what?"
"Pregnant."
My mouth dropped staring at my sister in law, why the hell hadn't I thought of that? I looked at Noah and shook my head, as she stared at me. "You can trust me Nick, I wouldn't tell anyone, you don't have to lie to me. I would really love to be an aunt, it will-"
"She's not pregnant, not that I know of. Now you're making me worried, go to school." I muttered and Noah gave an awkward laugh heading for the door,
I turned pushing the door back open into the kitchen, I looked at Miley sitting there staring at the newspaper, should I ask or not? I walked over sitting down beside her as she gave me a smile.
"You okay, you seem a little-"
"Agitated? Pissed off? Annoyed?" Miley suggested, I looked at her giving a small nod, "Trust me when you find out why I'm angry, you're going to be just as annoyed as I am right now. So I'll tell you tonight when I've calmed down a little bit…"
Oh god. She was pregnant.
"Tell me now." I responded seriously.
"It's fine, I'll tell you tonight. I was just so stupid, I should have-"
"But we used protection."
Miley turned looking at me dumb founded and I looked at her confused, "Are you pregnant? Because if you are, I'm going to support you-"
"WHAT? NO!" She yelled at me,
I sighed in relief, well nothing could be worse then that right now. She just shook her head looking back to the paper, I moved my hand around her waist something was obviously making her like this. I leaned forward kissing her cheek as she gave a smile.
"I need to go to work, but I'm not leaving until you tell me what's going on with you." I whispered and she turned looking at me giving a weak smile,
"Lunch date?"
"You and me?" I questioned and she shrugged,
"I don't care I'll tell you then, because right now I might say something I regret about that self centered lying bitch…" Miley hissed through her gritted teeth, as I watched her grasp the paper.
"Okay then lunch it is. Love you…" I stated a little scared
"Love you too." She stated cheerfully as I gave her a light peck.
I turned heading out the kitchen uneasy, and I thought facing the media today was going to be a problem. I think I was more scared now of who Miley's "bitch" comment referred too.
Miley POV
To say my day had gotten better would be a lie.
I'd been given looks all day at work, at times I just saw people staring at me whispering to each other. No one in the crew that I used to talk to spoke to me now, and seeing as mom wasn't around it left me completely alone. Then again I'd rather her not be anywhere near me right now. I tapped my fingers against my chair waiting for the director to call lunch, I really needed to escape here right now.
"Okay everyone LUNCH!"
I was out the door in seconds, rushing towards my car.
I just wanted Nick right now and the world could wait. I still hadn't done a single interview or stepped near the paparazzi since I got back and I knew to have lunch I was going to have to. I drove out the car park and through the gates heading down the street. It only took my fifteen minutes before I was back in our neighborhood, parking the car at the local cafe strip.
Paparazzi were everywhere…great.
I leaned over grabbing my handbag off the seat only for my door to open, I turned ready to yell at some over obsessive fan or worse the paparazzi, only to instead find Nick's smiling face.
"Hey gorgeous,"
"Hi" I huffed annoyed, "How long have you been here?"
"Ten minutes, the guys came as well if that's okay? Or if it isn't we could always go some where else…" He stated the paparazzi crowding around the car and him as I shrugged.
"No it's fine."
He offered his hand as I smiled taking it, I wasn't used to Nick's public display of affection and so far he'd opened my door and we were holding hands…more then we'd ever done in front of the cameras. He closed the door as the swarm hit us…
"MILEY NICK GIVE US A SMILE!"
"KISS."
"What happened to your face Nick? Is Miley abusing you?"
"How could you do this to everyone? Your family? What about Selena and Liam?" I heard someone yell as I looked down and Nick squeezed my hand.
"There's always going to be the positive and negative people," He whispered in my ear and in the process kissed my cheek,
The cameras were clicking like crazy and I nodded in agreement.
"I know but that doesn't make this any easier…" I replied quietly.
"Hey Miles."
I smiled at the group patiently standing in the line of fire, who all gave me a smile. By the looks on their faces, I assumed Nick must had told them I was in a bad mood this morning because none of them were very reluctant to approach me. Then again right now I think the best place for me was locked in my bedroom, until I got over the email I'd received this morning from a person I never really wanted to speak to again...
"In here?" Kevin asked brightly,
"Sure, looks good." Demi stated giving me a huge smile.
"Excuse me, excuse me, and excuse me Miley."
I turned around and looked down to see a little boy gazing up at me, I leaned down giving a smile as he blushed. "My sister and her friends were scared to come over, so I said I'd come over for her…can I please have your autograph?"
"Of course you can gorgeous." I replied grinning. "What's your sisters name? And what's your name?"
"My name is Liam, and my sisters name is Selena."
I opened my mouth looking at him now skeptical, okay that could not be a coincidence. I looked up and saw five teenage girls all-staring at me milkshakes in hand. Oh crap…
"You're a fucking slut Miley! You do realize no one likes you right? It'll only be a matter of time before your marriage fails just like your parents…"
"Hey that's not very-"
Nick went to defend me but he was just three feet too far away. All five of them did the exact same thing, as the little boy scampered away over to them. I watched in shock as they all threw their milkshakes at me and a second later I'd become a milky mix of strawberry chocolate and vanilla. I was literally soaked from head to toe within seconds as I looked at the girls horrified, what the hell was wrong with them?
"Bitch." One of them hissed laughing,
All five of them turned and ran taking the little boy with them, the cameras were instantly surrounding me and I watched Nick, Joe and Kevin along with some familiar paparazzi run after the girls. I felt someone protectively grab my arm and dragged me through the now huge crowed…
"Oh my god! Oh my god! What little…" Demi hissed trailing off, pulling me into the first café she could find.
Danielle stood there alongside her both staring at me, milk was dripping down my face as I refused to let tears add to the combination. They both looked at me apologetic but all I could think about was maybe those girls did have a point…had I rushed into getting married to Nick too soon? I looked away feeling stupid, if they thought I was a slut, how many other people did? The thoughts were running around my head confusing me completely...I just didn't know what to think anymore.
"Oh Miles…"
I felt someone grab me from behind as I cuddled into Nick's familiar body straight away, "I am so sorry, I had no idea they were going to do that! How about I take you home?"
I nodded and he sighed, "Miley don't listen to them okay, what they said isn't true. Don't even doubt that for a second…"
"I know" I whispered still nervous, "Like you said, there are always going to be positive and negative people…"
"And you're always going to have me." He stated in my ear.
I pulled away looking at Joe who was smirking, "Looks like you're in a sticky situation."
"Joe...inappropriate." Demi muttered.
I sighed turning back to Nick, so what if the world hated me? I still had the ones I cared about most. I still had Nick, and they didn't.
