Chapter 28

Miley POV

Goodbyes were hard, I knew they were but this was tearing me a part.

I watched Nick chatting away to Joe and Kevin, they all looked so happy while I just felt like crying. I sighed listening to them making final tour preparations to tell the producer, after all they were leaving tomorrow morning which I had to keep reminding myself. It was hard for me right now, I'd finished my latest movie and I no longer had it to distract me from the fact Nick was leaving. Now however it was clear to me and I was almost of the verge of cracking, I didn't want to look desperate to him but Nick had no idea how much I was dying inside at the moment.

"Good morning" Demi stated overly happy,

"Hi."

She sat down next to me grinning like a kid on Christmas morning as she offered me a coffee.

"Thanks" I mumbled taking it and I instantly stared back to the guys,

"So happy you finished up with the movie?"

"Yep."

"And when does the next one start?"

"Soon."

"So decided on how you are going to farewell Nick? Because I think you should buy some lingerie and-"

"Shut up Demi." I hissed annoyed.

"You're in a good mood." Demi stated sarcastically,

I instantly stood up and left her there, I didn't need the comments today I just didn't need any of them having a go at me. I walked outside the warehouse they were using for practice in the record labels lot and sipped my coffee. I sighed leaning back against the wall I just needed to calm the hell down, I hated being in such a bad mood but I just wasn't feeling my normal happy self at the moment. I couldn't decide if it was because of Nick or it was because of my family situation…maybe it was both.

I gave a cough, which caused me to choke on the coffee. I spluttered it everywhere and wiped my sleeve across my mouth pulling it away to see blood…obviously I'd burnt my tongue on the coffee as well.

"Hey Miley" I heard a scream,

I turned to see Selena with Liam walking over to me with her posse of friends, obviously she was here for recording or something….and Liam well, obviously Selena and him were more then "friends." They were all smiling happily while I tried to put a smile on my face, but how could I?

"Hi" I stated as she reached me and looked expecting a hug,

"You okay?"

"Yeah" I responded looking away.

"No, you're not" Liam stated as I looked back at them and Selena gave me an apologetic look as suddenly tears came to my eyes.

"Oh Miley,"

"No, don't I'm fine" I whispered as she tried to pull me into a hug,

"What happened did Nick and you get in a fight?" Liam questioned and I shook my head,

"No" I whispered wanting to just go home and cuddle Nick for eternity.

"I'm just over reacting. This is too much stress for me," I stated giving a small laugh looking at both of them. "I feel so stupid being this upset, it's only a tour it's not like he's leaving forever…but I still feel so…lonely. I'm just being really self centered and-"

"Miles…" Liam stated as he pulled me into a hug,

I didn't push him away as I smelled his familiar scent. I hugged him back, I didn't care about anything anymore I just wanted Nick to stay…

"Nick…" Selena suddenly stated,

Liam instantly let go of me and I turned around to see Nick just staring at me.

"Demi said you walked out, I thought I'd come and find you." Nick stated staring at me, "Looks like I didn't need to." He rolled his eyes and turned walking back.

I felt a tear roll down my face as nodded, "Great."

"Miles," Liam stated as I just pushed him away,

"Leave me alone, please just go!" I stated and walked away pacing towards the exit of this stupid place…

I didn't want to be here!

I headed out the gates and crossed the road going into a park finding a bench and just crumpled onto it sobbing. I didn't want him to leave, I hated being alone and now that was what I was going to be. I'd told Nick it was fine and I'd been acting like I didn't care, but hell I did. I was so scared of what he'd do overseas and even within the borders of the U.S. I just felt so…insignificant. Everything was about the tour and I hardly saw him anymore, and soon he was going to leave…

I just sat there for what seemed like hours crying, I just couldn't stop myself.

"Miles…" I heard a voice say as they sat down beside me, "We've been looking for you."

"I don't care Demi! I don't care" I choked out and she sighed wrapping her arm around me pulling me towards her,

"Hey don't cry, okay don't cry!"

"I don't want to cry Demi! But I am." I whispered trying to pull myself together but I just couldn't…

I needed Nick.

"Miley stop" She demanded letting me go, "You are going to stop crying now and moping around like someone died. You are worse then Danielle and she's pregnant for god sake, you are overeating!"

"But…" I started as she slapped me on the arm and I looked at her annoyed, "That hurt, why did you do that?"

"Because you're being stupid that's why!" She stated and I held back my tears looking at her and she sighed taking both my hands,

"Come on, your not as upset as you think you are Miley. Come on Nick's only going to be around another twelve hours, take advantage of that." She pleaded as I nodded and squeezed her hand.

"I will, it's just-"

"It's just nothing. Miley talk to him."

"Kay."

Nick POV

"Oh god, I don't think I can do this!" I stated pushing my hands through my hair staring at my two brothers and Danielle.

Dani unlike Miley seemed to be rational at the moment, which we expected the opposite. However at any moment Dani's mood could change and then she'd be crying, where as Miley…well her mood was stable. She seemed always upset and nothing I did could change that at the moment.

"Nick take a deep breath," Joe stated calmly looking at me, "She's just upset you're leaving Nick and you going mad at her wasn't a great idea."

"She was hugging Liam" I hissed, "Liam who stole our wedding photos!"

"Who was standing with Selena, who he is supposedly dating!" Kevin stated as I just gave a huff shaking my head, they just didn't understand how much I just wanted to drop everything to stay with her right now.

"This is a mess." I stated.

"You caused it."

"Thanks Dani." I retorted staring at her,

"Come on Nick! You've hardly been home, how do you expect Miley to act? I know exactly how Miley is feeling right now and do you know how hard this is for us." Danielle hissed at me tears coming to her eyes, "Do you? Because this is just…"

Danielle started crying as Kevin shot me a look, "Thanks Nick"

"Please don't get Demi pregnant any time soon, I don't think we could deal with another emotional girl." I stated seriously as Dani instantly looked at me insulted,

"Are you having a go at me or your wife there?"

"Miley, not you…you're acting normal, seeing as you are pregnant. Miley is just…" I stated shaking my head trying to think of a word to explain it,

"Scared that you're relationship will end up like her parents."

"That will never happen."

"Nick." Joe stated giving me a look, "You may see that but she isn't, her parents slowly moved apart because they didn't spend time together. Then the fights started…and you just had a fight. Well it wasn't really a fight but to her it will have felt like it, she doesn't want to end up like them. And right now...to her it's heading that way."

"I know but still, I can't fix the way she thinks!" I stated.

"I don't want you to go." Danielle cried onto Kevin. "I want you to stay…"

"Danielle baby you know we-"

"I don't care. I want you to stay!"

"Come on Dani, let's go for a walk? And how about we get you some lunch or something that will make you happier…" Kevin suggested, as he shot us both a look and pulled his sobbing wife away.

"At least Miley's mood is constant, I couldn't deal with that."

"Oh I would rather that."

"I can't believe tomorrow we are flying out to England, it feels like only yesterday we were starting rehearsals." Joe stated shaking his head

"I know right, the time has flown by. Europe first for the next two weeks then back here for this bit then over to Asia." I stated seriously.

"Hey."

We both turned around to see Demi and Miley standing there, I gave a sigh seeing Miley's red eyes as she looked away from me. "Right you two need to go and talk? Got it Nick, Miley needs to tell you something."

"Sure, come on gorgeous."

"Good luck man." Joe whispered,

I moved over wrapping my arm around Miley's waist pulling her through the warehouse to a quiet corner. I stopped as she sat down on the chair giving a cough and then shook her head…

"I'm sorry I hugged Li-"

"It's fine I overreacted. I know I haven't been around much and it's been hard for you having to deal with everything along with Danielle." I whispered taking a seat alongside her. "But I love you so much Miley and I know this is going to be hard but I believe that we can do this."

"Me too."

I looked at her as she stared at me, I moved my hand up to her cheek moving my thumb gently under her eye fixing her smudged eyeliner. I leaned forward giving her a very gently kiss on the lips as she looked away and I dropped my hand…

"I need to tell you something."

"What?" I whispered worried.

"You know how I was talking about that email ages ago?" Miley whispered and I shrugged a little confused and she sighed, "When I was mad and said how that person was a lying self centered-"

"Oh yep, I remember."

"It was from mom."

"What? You kidding?" I hissed looking at her as Miley shook her head.

"No."

"What did she want?"

Miley moved her hands up to her face covering it, "She wants me to fly to Brazil, while you're on tour. She's living their with her new illegally married husband, mom wants me to meet my new sibling." She whispered through her hands and I sighed.

"And you are…"

"Considering it,"

"What?"

Miley dropped her hands shaking her head, "I don't want to turn out like them Nick, and when I first got the email I was so angry and mad. Then I realized I was acting just like her, thinking about myself and not about her or the fact she is having a baby. I won't be like her…I won't be like them!"

I looked at Miley and brought her into a hug.

"We aren't like them Miley."

"I know that, sometimes…" She whispered leaning her head on my shoulder, "It's just hard for me to see that Nick, but I'm trying. I've been lying to your face about how much I wanted you to go on this tour when I don't want you going at all."

"Miley I have to-"

"Go, I know…I'm just going to miss you." She whispered as I let her go.

I moved my hand up to her cheek and smiled, "Miley Ray I love you. And I'm going to miss you so much, but every moment I have spare I'm going to call, text and web chat with you, because then it won't be that bad. It'll seem like I'm with you in a way, minus the kisses, hugs...and the other sexy stuff."

She gave a small laugh and nodded, "Now there's the smiling girl I fell in love with, stop hiding her away from me. I don't like this sad depressed one…"

"I love you too."

I moved forward pushing my lips against hers as she kissed me back, I leaned my head on hers feeling Miley's desperation. We both knew I had to go though, tomorrow I was leaving and neither of us could change that now.
