An unpleasant night out

Later that evening, when Hans and his friends arrived at the club, he was first taking a couple of drinks with them before he started to look for Miley (he didn't want to seem too desperate). The Bungalows was one of the few nightclubs that he really liked. It wasn't the typical overcrowded one or two room club with the music playing so loud that you couldn't have a proper conversation with anyone. It looked more like a cottage in the countryside, with an open space on every site and in between was the house with different rooms. Living room, billiard room, library, dinner room and a couple of bars with enough seating possibilities to sit down with your friends and have a conversation, you even had some ping pong tables outside.

When he finally found her, he immediately had a bad feeling. Miley was together with her notorious girl gang, consisting of Paris Hilton, Amanda Bines and Lindsay Lohan. Since he was trying to get some information about Miley over the last days, he read a lot about these girls. They produced scandals on a weekly basis (at least) and Hans was sure that they were not really Miley's friends, but only spent time with her to get into the spotlight of the media. Because wherever Miley showed up, the paparazzi would be waiting for her.

Miley seemed to be pretty drunk already, at least she didn't have full control of her movements anymore. Since Hans was already here, he didn't want to sneak away like a coward, so he went over to the group. Miley saw him coming and yelled at him:

"There you are, so the party can finally start"

She put her arms around his neck and kissed him on the mouth. Hans had to think back to the kisses he got a few days ago at the photoshoot, and, even though this one was one the mouth and not on the cheeks, it felt completely different. Miley's breath smelled like a mixture of alcohol, weed, sweat and nicotine, which was a pretty filthy combination. The other girls immediately jumped in and he was forced to have a drink with them, afterwards it was mainly Paris Hilton who became very clingy. She wanted to know everything about his personal life, touched him every time she could and tried to take as many pictures as possible. Hans was pretty sure that it wouldn't take long before they would be, according to Paris's Instagram account, best friends or even madly in love.

30 minutes later, he finally got the opportunity to talk to Miley, but that didn't really brighten his mood.

"God, are your friends always so annoying?"

"Annoying? Why annoying? They're just not as boring as you are"

„Oh sorry, my bad. That might be an explanation why I don't like them"

„Come on, what do you think, you wanna have some real fun? We could go to the bathroom to sniff a line" she suddenly whispered in his ear.

„Are you fucking serious? Are you really offering me to consume some cocaine?" Hans replied completely shocked. This night definitely didn't develop the way he hoped it would.

"Cooooome on, don't be such a pussy. I'm sure we can have some more fun afterwards. We could ask Paris to join us, I saw that you seem to like each other" she said and pressed her hips against Hans, trying to seduce him, but all she managed to do was to freak him out.

„No thanks, but I think I'll pass. I better get going…". He looked at this young girl with some sort of disgust and left the room. All he could hear was Miley shouting at him:

"So go back to your boring friends you loser. We'll find someone who knows how to have fun." The last thing he heard was the mocking laughter of Miley's so-called friends.

Hans went outside, ordered a drink and was looking for a quiet corner where he wouldn't be disturbed. He didn't mind that Paris and her friends were making fun of him, as he usually didn't give a damn about the opinion of people he had no respect for. He was just shocked at how he could completely misjudge Miley. After the photoshoot, he really thought of her as an amazing young woman, who was misperceived by the media and the public. But it seemed like today, he met the real Miley Cyrus and she just wasn't the girl he met a few days ago.

He stayed in his corner for a bit, enjoying his drink and figuring out that this was something like a sign he couldn't ignore. For the first time, he was completely astonished by a girl on their first meeting, just to be brutally disappointed shortly afterwards. He had to admit to himself that it kind of hurt him how she treated him. She mocked him, even tried to humiliate him in front of other people, and he came to the conclusion that the best thing to do would be to just forget about this girl.

Just when he finished his drink and was about to tell his friends that he would be heading back home, Miley came around the corner.

„Hey, here you are. What's the matter, you don't feel like partying anymore?"

„Seriously? After what happened inside? No thanks, I definitely don't feel like partying anymore."

„Oh come on, don't be a jerk. Just come back in and have some fun with us."

"Thanks, but I'll pass. To be honest, I imagined this night out a bit differently. I thought you would actually be more like that girl I met on Wednesday."

„What do you mean? Nice, innocent, boring? I'm sorry to disappoint you, but that's not me. The problem on Wednesday was that I wasn't either drunk nor high, that's why I was such a nit."

"And that's your honest opinion about it? Somehow I don't buy that…"

"Really? Why not?"

"I don't know. Maybe because I just can't imagine that the Miley I met is stupid enough to consider this girls inside being her best friends."

„Sorry to disappoint you again. But we're just having fun and hang out together. Besides, they are also young and famous, so they understand what I have to go through and they support me no matter what. Something I probably can't expect from you."

"You really don't get it, do you? You think they are your friends? All they do is using you to get some attention. You're their only possibility to appear on the first page, and the more scandalous, the better. As soon as they don't need you anymore, they drop you faster than you can say bong."

„Haha, bong, that was funny"

„I'm happy you like it"

„Ok, listen. I really liked you on Wednesday, but I am not the sweet, little Miley that everybody expects me to be. I love to party, smoke weed and get drunk. And if I want to have some fun with guys, I just do it. But you don't seem to be interested."

„You know, and that's exactly where you lie to yourself. Maybe you're not the sweet Miley who never does anything wild or wrong, nobody can be that perfect. But I'm damn sure that you're not that bitch you turn into when you're together with your so-called friends. All you try to do is to get away from this Hannah image, and you don't even notice that you're losing yourself on the way." This little outburst really seemed to somehow reach the young girl. All of a sudden, she got a distant look in her eyes, and she replied in a deeply sad voice:

"It might be true that I exaggerate sometimes. But it's about time to get rid of Hannah and grow up. And it might take some extreme measures to do so, otherwise I will always only be this little cute girl. But I want people to recognize me as a grown up woman and artist. And changing my environment and my circle of friends is part of that. If I don't do this, I will always only be Miley in the eyes of everybody."

"Only Miley…what's so bad about being only Miley?"

„Because Miley is just a little boring girl, not taken seriously by anyone"

„Haha, and who told you that? After all, this Miley is someone who was loved and admired by millions of children. And honestly, what more could you ask for?"

This was something Miley didn't have an answer to, but Hans could see in her face that these crappy thoughts were mainly a production of her new friends and, sadly, when he was thinking about the lunch they had after the photoshoot, probably also a strategy of her management.

„Look, before I leave, there's only one more thing I want to tell you. You said that the Miley from Wednesday was just a boring and innocent version of the person you really are. To me though, the Miley I got to know back there was a young woman who enjoyed life, just an open-minded and loveable girl. And by the way the most beautiful woman I have ever met in my entire life. This boring person impressed me like nobody else ever did before. And my honest opinion is, this was only possible because that was the one and only real Miley. This Miley was a person that touched my heart, and I couldn't stop thinking about her. And I really don't know if I've ever been as happy as in that moment where this person asked me if I would like to see her again today. And yes, it fucking hurts to realize that my image of her seems to have been completely wrong."

After this conversation, he left the young singer and made his way back home. Somehow, this evening didn't turn out like planned at all.
