Chapter 16

Bad Day

The next morning, when I woke up, I could stop thinking for the fact that Freddy might've told people about my secret. I guess it was just hitting me big time and that nightmare I had last night just felt too real.

I went in the living room finding Luann and Jackson getting wrapped up in an argument.

"I wasn't doing anything! It was just a kiss!" Luann shouted at Jackson and Jackson shook his head.

"Yeah, a kiss with your tutor who is, what, 19? What's up with you and older guys?" Jackson shouted back and Luann rolled her eyes.

"That is none of your business! It was just a simple kiss, get over it!" Luann pushed Jackson aside and Jackson gripped on her wrist.

"Remember what happened the last time? Why can't you just keep it down for once?" Jackson hissed.

"Jackson, it's not like I'm going to do anything with him, it was just a date and a kiss. I wont see him anymore, I mean yesterday was my last lesson. Just relax okay?" Luann shook her head and Jackson let go of her.

"Sorry, I just don't want what happened in the past happen again."

"Good morning you two good to see that you two are in such a good mood today." I said sarcastically and they looked at me.

"Yeah right." Luann rolled her eyes and took her bag from the table. "Let's go."

"Don't forget we're going to talk to Freddy today." He said and took his keys from the table.

"Yeah, don't worry, I won't." I sighed and walked out of the house with Jackson and Luann behind me.

On the way to school, Jackson and Luann were quiet. My guess was that they were still mad at each other after their show down this morning and it was a very awkward ride to school.

When we reached the parking area of the school, Luann stormed off into the school as Jackson and I took our time. Jackson wanted me to bring him to Freddy right away and so I casually walked into school, looking for him.

We walked passed a few people, expecting someone to pop out and ask me if it was true that I was Hannah Montana, and surprisingly, no one came up to me.

'Maybe Freddy didn't tell anyone after all.' I told myself as Jackson and I walked through the halls to look for Freddy. We found Freddy at his locker getting his things and we went up to him.

"Hey Freddy." I said and he looked up at me, smiling.

"Hello Miley and Jackson." He said and closed his locker. "What brings you here?"

"Look Greendale, I just wanted to make sure that you wouldn't let this whole secret slip out, okay?" Jackson said, walking forward making Freddy back up into his locker.

"Why would I tell someone about this secret? It's not like anyone would believe me anyway." Freddy said and I rolled my eyes.

"Jackson, stop it." I hissed, but Jackson ignored me.

"I swear, you let this slip out, I'm going to hurt you like there's no tomorrow." He snapped, pushing Freddy's shoulder.

"Is that a threat?" Freddy asked and I tugged on Jackson's shirt.

"Jackson, I swear, stop it." I said and he shook his head.

"What if it is?" Jackson smirked and I smacked Jackson's back.

"That's a federal offense-"

"I clearly know what threatening is, have you not heard what I've done in the past?" Jackson rolled his eyes and Freddy gaped at him.

"You mean what I did." Freddy said and Jackson shook his head.

"Dude, if you're smart, you wouldn't mess with me." Jackson said and Freddy rolled his eyes.

"I don't understand you, you confuse me." Freddy tried to get Jackson off his back, but Jackson pushed him against the locker.

"What is your problem?" Freddy snapped and Jackson took a deep breath.

"Just watch your back. If I hear you say anything to anyone, I' swear I-" Jackson started but I punched him.

"Damn it Jackson, relax." I said and he looked at me.

I looked to the ground, feeling embarrassed and pissed off at Jackson. Why did he have to go that far? I told him that I didn't want him to fight with Freddy, and look at what he's doing; he's starting something up with Freddy.

"Sorry Miley." Jackson put his hand on my shoulder and looked back at Freddy. "Just don't tell anyone okay Freddy and everything will be alright."

"Sure, I won't tell anyone. Don't worry the secret is safe with me." He nodded and eased his way away from the both of us.

"You scared him." I said and Jackson patted my shoulder.

"I'm just looking out for you." He lightly hugged me and walked off.

'Jackson you dumb ass, why'd you have to go so far just to make sure he wouldn't tell anyone?' I thought to myself and shook my head. I walked off to my first class waiting to see what happened next.

--------------------------------------------------

The day passed by quickly and Freddy and I hardly talked during our music class. I told Jake what happened between Jackson and Freddy that morning and Jake said that maybe Freddy was acting all distant because of what Jackson said. I didn't know, but it seemed pretty awkward.

The rest of the day went bad, even during rehearsals. Nothing was going right during rehearsal and it just ruined my day. I was having a bad enough day during school, but why did it have to affect me during my rehearsals?

One of my dancers couldn't make it so we had to replace him with another guy, one of the guys that hasn't been practicing much, and then the microphones weren't working right. My band members weren't doing their best because they were all too tired as well.

"You know what; I think we should just call it a day." I told everyone as my dancers dropped to the ground.

"Thank God!" My drummer said and I laughed.

"This is just so exhausting." One of my dancers said and I nodded.

"Well most of the songs are fast songs, so think of me. I have to sing and dance at the same time." I dropped to the ground, and covered my face.

"Do you have anything else you have to do tomorrow?" Someone asked me and I looked up seeing my guitarist sitting on the ground with his legs crossed.

"The only big thing other than the concert I have tomorrow is this lyrics thing for my music class that's due."

"Is that weird dude that's obsessed with you still… obsessed with you?" One of the girls asked and I giggled.

"Yeah, and he even found out who I am. Jackson told him off and then in the end Jackson threatened him." I shook my head.

"Wow, he really cares for you." Another girl asked and I sat up.

"Yeah, he just doesn't want anything bad to happen to me again."

"You never really told us what really happened to you last year." My bassist said and I shrugged.

"It's kind of personal."

"You don't have to tell us, you can just tell us when you're ready." A dancer said and I nodded.

"Well, I just had a thing with a student teacher and he tried something on me and… it didn't come out too good." I said and stood up.

"Wow." They all said and I giggled.

"Yeah, don't worry about it. He didn't do anything too bad. It was just… something. Anyway I'm going to go." I said and started to walk.

"Where you going?" Someone asked and I looked back.

"I have to do some homework. I'll tell my dad we're finished and-" I started but saw the door open with Jake coming in.

"Hello." He said and I smiled.

"Hey Jake." I said and he pulled me into a hug.

"Sup dude." Some of the guys said and he with one hand waved as he wrapped his arm around my waist.

"What brings you here?" I asked.

"I just wanted to see if you were okay after what happened today." We started to walk back out the door.

"Bye Miley." Everyone said and I waved at them.

"Well, I'm okay in a way. I'm tired and I need to sit down. I have to tell my dad I'm finished-" I started but Jake cut me off.

"I told him that I was going to take you out early and he accepted. Maybe we could go back to your place and I could give you a little back rub, you know…" He pulled me close to him and kissed my cheek.

I felt myself blush. "Is it possible to be too tired to be doing something like that?" I asked and he laughed.

"I guess so. Let me give you a piggy back ride the rest of the way out then? My driver is out in front." He said and let go of my waist, bending down so that I could climb on his back.

I wrapped my arms around his neck and his hands went to my thighs as he got up.

"Thanks." I laughed and he ran the rest of the way out of the building with a few people looking at me.

Once we reached the car, Jake put me down on the pavement so that I could go in the car on my own. As we settled down, we told the driver to go to my place and Jake looked at me.

"So how was the rest of your day?" He asked and I laughed.

"Well, it was going bad, but then you sort of made it feel a little better." I smiled and he put his head on my shoulder with his hand on my thigh, slightly rubbing it.

"That's good. As long as you're not too stressed out, then maybe we could hang out a bit then."

I kissed his forehead. "Yeah, probably." I smiled to myself and sighed.

Hopefully tomorrow won't be too stressful when we get the lyrics in. but I just wonder what Mrs. Rodrigues has planned instead of just turning in the lyrics.

A/N Wow, Jackson's getting super over protective. Sorry if this chapter sucked lol I'm not completely happy with it. About maybe 4 or 3 more chapters left I think.

Anyway, thanks for the reviews and reading.
