Chapter 6: Revealing Her Secret????

Miley stomped up back to her room, thinking of a plan of what to do about her terrible issue. Matt was flipping through a scrapbook she left on her desk.

"I didn't know you were so interested in Hannah Montana," David said kind of quietly as Miley walked over to where he was standing. Miley's mouth dropped open. Does he know my secret? Miley thought, worried sick.

"Um….yeah! She's my idol," Miley recovered, hoping to fool him. "We're really similar. In fact, we're like, one person!" Miley hoped that wouldn't give anything away. She just didn't feel comfortable lying to Matt.

Matt frowned. "Then how come you have pictures of in her closet and stuff?" he asked, flipping through the pages some more. "And of her 12th birthday party, and her dad, and her friends, and her-"

"I got them off the internet!!!" Miley interrupted.

Matt continued to frown. "The internet? Isn't it illegal to post pictures like this on the internet?" Miley tried to think of something to say. But she had nothing to say. Well, I guess I can find out if he really likes me now…..Miley thought.

She took a deep breath and said quietly: "I'm Hannah Montana." Matt laughed.

"Yeah right," he said. "And I'm the King of Norway." He continued to laugh, but then he realized how serious Miley looked.

"I'll show you," she told him.

"Show me?" Matt asked unsurely. Miley sighed and led him into her Hannah closet. Matt's mouth dropped open.

"No. Way." He stood his ground, staring at all of Hannah Montana's clothes, jewelry, and accessories. But then he realized something.

"What if these are just fancy clothes?" he asked. "You have brown hair, and Hannah has blonde hair." Miley opened a door that hid all of her wigs. She took out her favorite one, a long and straight wig with streaks, and placed it on her head as neatly as she could. Matt could then clearly see that she was Hannah Montana.

"You mean to tell me that I have been dating a pop star for about a year, and I didn't even know about it?" he asked in sock.

Miley shrugged. "Guess so. You can't tell ANYONE about this. I can't have people lining up at my door asking for autographs. Remember, I live a normal life too." Matt nodded.

"Absolutely. No problem. Will do." Suddenly, Matt's serious expression turned into a puppy-like begging look. "Please can I tell SOMEONE?!?!"

"NO!" Miley cried. "I shouldn't have told you this. I've only known you for a year!" She turned to face him. "The only people that know are my dad, brother, and my two friends I've known since we were born. And now I just blew my cover to some high school boy I barely met."

Matt took Miley in his arms. "I won't tell anyone if you don't want me to," he reassured her.

Miley looked up at him as she was pressed against him. "Promise?"

Matt kissed her forhead. "Promise," he agreed. "And besides, it doesn't really matter that you're Hannah Montana. It's not like I'll get any credit!" Miley laughed.

"That's true." She pulled away from him enough to gaze up into his eyes. "Thanks," she said quietly.

"You're welcome," Matt replied. The two leaned towards each other closer, when almost as on cue, Miley's cell phone rang again. Miley braced herself.

"Sorry," she mumbled. "Hold on." Miley picked up her phone. She looked at the caller ID, and noticed it was Jake. Does he plan to call me when I'm about to kiss Matt? she thought unhappily. Miley glanced at Matt. "It's my grammy again," she lied. "I'll be right back."

Miley walked outside and answered the phone. "Hey Jake," she said.

"Hey," he answered. "I was just calling to tell you I'll pick you up at 6:45 or so tonight." Miley had almost completely forgotten about her double date that night.

"Well, I actually am busy, so I'll be a bit late tonight," Miley told him. "Can I meet you there at 7:10 or so?"

"Yeah, sure!" Jake agreed. "Anything for you!" Miley smiled. He's so sweet! she thought.

"Well I'll see you tonight!" Miley said. "Bye." She hung up her phone. As she was coming back upstairs, she heard Jake talking on his own cell phone.

"Yeah tonight at Monotelli's," she heard him say. Pause. "Yeah, she'll be there." Pause. "And I heard she's bringing her new boyfriend too." Pause. "Alrighty then. Later." Miley walked into the room slowly. Matt looked at her and smiled.

"Hey!" he greeted. "Sorry, I had to call my mom and tell her about tonight." Miley nodded.

"Okay…" she said. Why was he telling his mom about our date? she thought. Didn't he already make reservations a while ago? She shook off the thought that he was using her, and smiled back.

"Hey can I ask you a favor?" Matt asked. Miley nodded.

"Sure. Anything."

"Can you dress like Hannah Montana when we go out tonight?" he asked. Miley gasped.

"Uh………" She didn't know what to say. What would she do with Jake? But then again, she did just tell Matt her secret, and if she didn't do what he wanted, he might spill her secret to the world!! Finally, Miley decided to give in.

'Okay." she agreed. "I'll do it." Matt smiled. "Excellent," he said, smiling. "Now, if I try and kiss you, will your phone ring?" Miley smiled back.

'If it does, I won't answer," she told him. Finally (here's the disgusting moment you've been waiting for lol), Miley and Matt leaned towards each other until their lips touched. The couple shared a passionate kiss, until Miley's cell phone (of course) rang. AGAIN. Miley sighed, pulling away from the kiss.

"Hey," Matt complained. "You promised." Miley laughed.

"Fine," she agreed. "I'll leave it."
