Last night I feel in love without you
I waved goodbye to that heart of mine

There was a knock on the door, causing Miley to wake from her deep slumber. She tried to ignore it, but the visitor had other plans.

"Selena" Miley groaned, "Can you open the door?"

Selena clamped the pillow over her head, snuggling deeper into the comforter next to Miley. "Your room, your door, your problem" Selena muttered.

Miley moaned, then discarded the sheets from her body. "I hate you" she whispered over towards Selena, before hopping off the bed.

"I love you too" Selena responded, however it came out more as a slur. Soon her breathing became even and she was sleeping again.

Miley slowly opened the door, it creaking in the process. Lily burst into the room, "Morning girlies! How are we this lovely Saturday morning!?" Lily exclaimed cheerfully.

Miley turned to look at the clock, resting on the night stand while rubbing her eyes. "Lily" she yawned, "It's 5:45 AM, go back to bed"

Lily ignored her, "I just saw the sun rise and trust me Miley, it was one of the most beautiful sights ever! Then, I went on my morning jog alone and stopped by Rico's to grab a lemonade, wow; I never knew how early Jackson had to be there!"

Miley dragged her feet over towards her bed, collapsing on the mattress, right next to the sleeping Selena.

"Then after that, I came here to wake you two up, but your Dad said you two were still asleep so he made me some pancakes, ooh they were chocolate chip too! Amazingly delicious! And I almost forgot to tell you-"

Lily finally stopped her rambling once she noticed the snores escaping from Miley's mouth. "MR. STEWART!" she called, "GOT ANY PANCAKES LEFT!?"

It was now around noon and Oliver was walking around the boardwalk with his new friend Demi. "So you're a singer?" Oliver asked. Demi bowed her head, blushing. "Yeah, I'm-I'm not that good though…"

"I'm sure you're great" Oliver insisted. Demi just blushed again.

"What about you?" Demi asked, "What do you like to do?"

"I'm actually really into skateboarding" Oliver smiled, "I'm planning on going pro with my best friend Lily"

Demi's ears perked up, "Really? Who are these great best friends of yours?"

Oliver's eyes brightened, "They're great…really! My friends Miley and Selena are really into singing. Along with my three other guy friends, I'm sure you guys have a lot in common"

"I'm sure we have tons in common" Demi smirked.

Nick walked into the kitchen that afternoon with a smile plastered across his face; he and Miley had a very fun night. He shuffled over towards the fridge, pulling the door open and taking out a bowl of strawberries. He set the fruit on top of the kitchen table and pulled out a chair and took a seat. He picked up a strawberry and plopped it into his mouth. Joe came whistling into the kitchen, fully dressed.

"What up, fro bro?" Joe asked, sitting down next to Nick.

Nick sighed, "I know this may sound twisted, but I can't wait until our break is over"

Joe laughed, "I'm actually liking this break, I want it to last longer!"

Nick looked at him skeptically, "What are you talking about? Just a few days ago you were saying you couldn't wait until we could hit that stage again"

"Eh, so what? I feel different about it now…" Joe shrugged his shoulders, grabbing a strawberry from the bowl and plopping it into his mouth.

There was a pause, "I'm, uh- gonna go take a shower" Nick stated, getting up from the table.

"No can do, Kevin and Dad are using both bathrooms" Joe replied.

"Guess Miley's gonna have to deal with a smelly Nicholas today" Nick muttered under his breath as he ruffled his hair and walked up the stairs.

"So, I'll call you tonight?" Oliver asked.

"I'd love that" Demi smiled, "and we're still on for tomorrow morning? Drinks at Rico's?"

Oliver's smile widened, "It's a date"

Selena rolled over on Miley's side of the bed and was surprised when she didn't feel anyone next to her. She slowly opened her eyes, "Miles?"

No answer.

She slowly sat up and scratched her head, looking around the room curiously. Once she heard laughter coming down the hallway, she stopped wondering. Miley ran into the room, slamming the door behind her, out of breath. She was taking deep breaths and her eyes were wider then ever before.

"Selena…we have a problem!" she exclaimed.

Selena stared at her worriedly, "I hate problems"

Miley rolled her eyes, "You're telling me…"

"What's the problem?"

Miley jumped up on the bed, next to Selena. "It's Lily, she's … happy"

Selena burst into laughter, "And? What's the matter with that?" she asked in between giggles.

"Sel! You're not understanding what I'm trying to get at. She's being too perky! It's so unlike her."

She nodded her head, finally understanding what Miley was saying, "Joe? I'm guessing?"

"It's the only thing I can think of" Miley sighed.

"Hey Joe!" Frankie smiled up at his older brother, "So I've finally decided you can join my annual meetings! Mr. Long-neck and Mr. Long-Nose agree with me too, Mr. Wrinkly-Face is a little shaky about it, but I'm sure we can get him on board with a jar of Mom's cookies!" Frankie exclaimed.

"Not now Frankie" Joe grumbled, "I'm busy"

Frankie knitted his eyebrows together, "Joe? Are you ok? Usually you're begging me to come to my meetings! Oh no! Mr. Wrinkly-Face got to you, didn't he!? Now you listen here Joey! Don't listen to anything he says! He's a mean stuffed animal!" Frankie cried.

Joe just rolled his eyes, "Quit it Frankie!" He then stormed off to his room to call AJ.

Frankie frowned, what was going on with his older brother? He didn't like this new Joe…

I miss the old Joe :(
