Once again, thanks for all the amazing updates! This one's for NileyRULES. Happy birthday! Enjoy!

Tish POV

After talking to Miley's manager, I walked to her room to see how she was doing. The sight that awaited me melted my heart and a smile spread across my face. Aww.

"Billy," I called softly and he appeared a moment later, nodding when I motioned for him to be quiet. "Look at this." I pointed into the room and saw him smile too. Braison, Noah, Miley and Nick were all fast asleep on Miley's bed. They looked so peaceful that I never wanted to wake them. At the thought, I took out my phone and silently took a picture of it.

I looked over at Miley and Nick. He had a protective arm around her and her hand rested over his on the blanket. Seems she couldn't even let go of him in her sleep. Looking at them made me smile and think back to my younger days and my first love. That didn't last, but for some reason, I had a feeling that theirs would. I knew my daughter loved Nick more than anything in the world just as I knew Nick would do anything for her. He was a good boy. No, young man. Just as Miley was now a young lady. It was times like these that I realised that Miley wasn't a little girl anymore. She was on her way to eighteen and would probably start thinking about moving into her own place soon. She would be finishing her schooling soon, early with the help of her tutor. She was growing up so fast and the thought was painful, but I knew that it had to happen sooner or later. And knowing that someone as wonderful as Nick would be there for her made me feel a bit better.

I glanced at my watch. 6pm. It was still early, so I stepped back and took Billy's hand, the two of us heading away from the room to let them all get some sleep. I'll wake Nick up a bit later so he can go home, but for now, I'll let him stay with Miley.

Miley POV

One month later

We were going on tour again! I hadn't been this excited in a long time and I couldn't stop jumping up and down. I was informed three weeks ago that I had to go on another tour to promote my newest album and guess who was coming with me yet again... Yep, you guessed it! The Jonas Brothers! I couldn't believe it! I needed someone to open for me and they weren't very busy at the moment, so here we are again!

And this time it was different. Meaning my parents weren't tagging along and I would be sharing a bus with the boys, seeing as they were also going alone. There was no need to waste space. Don't get me wrong, I love my parents. But every now and then a girl needs to go out on her own. After all, I had just finished my schooling and graduated with flying colours, which meant that I didn't have to worry about studying either.

I couldn't believe how fast time has passed! It feels like only yesterday when I was that little girl auditioning for Hannah Montana. Now I've finished school, have a bunch of platinum albums and I would be leaving home sometime in the near future. I would miss living at home like hell, but I couldn't stay with Mommy and Daddy forever. I needed to grow up sometime. At least I'll still be in California, so they won't be far away. And I'm very lucky that I'll be able to afford going off on my own instead of reaching into my parents' pockets. All the money I've made since I started on Hannah Montana would be put into my name when I turn eighteen.

We would be leaving tomorrow, kicking off the tour and I was so excited I could barely sit still. In fact, I was running around my room like a headless chicken, packing everything in sight. Mandy was also coming! She was going to be one of my dancers like the good old days. Life couldn't get any better than this.

I looked out of my window to the house across the way. I saw Nick running around in his room too and giggled. Lifting two fingers to my lips, I whistled loudly and he turned towards the window, a smile crossing his face when he saw me.

"Hey!" he said, coming over and leaning on the window pane as I did the same. "How's the packing going?"

"You don't want to know," I declared and he laughed. "What about you?"

"Pretty much the same. And I'm all hyped up on sugar. Frankie gave me a box of chocolates as a going away present."

I laughed. "Aww, he's so cute. But you better give me one Jonas."

He rolled his eyes and disappeared for a second, before reappearing with a little chocolate in a shiny golden wrapper. "You gonna catch it if I throw it?"

"I'll try," I admitted and held my hands out, biting my lip in concentration. I almost missed it, but managed to catch it between two of my fingers. "Ha! I'm the queen of catching! I should try out for baseball." I winked at him and put the chocolate in my mouth as he laughed at me. He looked around for a moment at something and next thing I knew, Joe and Frankie were leaning out of the window next to Nick.

"Miley!" Frankie called out at the sight of me and I smiled.

"Hey kiddo, how's my little guy?" I asked and he beamed at me.

"I'm good, but Joe is being stupid."

"Hey!" Joe called and gave Frankie a little pinch on the arm. "I resent that." Frankie jumped Joe and they disappeared out of view while Nick and I cracked up.

"I'll let you handle that," I said to Nick with a laugh. "Besides, I need to get back to packing if I want to finish by tonight."

"Good idea," he agreed and sent me a soft smile. "I'll see you tomorrow, bright and early."

I nodded. "Yeah." I gave him one last smile before turning away from the window and walking into my closet again.

We're getting closer and closer to them getting back together. Sorry it took this long, but it would be so unrealistic if they just jumped back into each other's arms after everything they've been through. But don't worry, almost there! Please please please review! I want to make the next few chapters as good as possible and all the reviews give me inspiration to do so. Love ya!:)
