This chapter will be in 3rd person, just having a feel for it. If you don't like it then I'll rewrite it in 1st person or something.

Chapter 5

Always Forgiving

"Matt's out." Jake said as he walked closer to the TV.

"Wow." Miley said and walked over to the couch and sat down next to Freddy.

Freddy sighed. He found it irritating that the two were fighting over something stupid like Miley saying Matt's name instead of Jake's when they should be worrying more about Matt's departure from Jail. If only he could just make the couple kiss and make up, maybe even leave then he would be at peace.

"What are you guys going to do now?" Freddy asked and the two turned to him and shrugged.

"Dad has a restraining order on him, I think." Miley replied and stood up from her seat. "Maybe I should go." She hurried over to the front door, but stopped as she heard her name be called by Freddy.

"Miley." Freddy started and stood up from the couch. "You cant, not yet."

Miley turned from the door and looked at Freddy and then to Jake. She felt a little irritated, she wanted to get out and find out more about this. It was just nerve-wracking for her because they're letting out a predator out in the world and who knows if he's going to do something bad again.

Jake sighed and walked over to Miley, placing a hand on her shoulder. She looked up at him and frowned. She was just arguing a second ago and now he's acting as if nothing had mattered. It confused her how his feelings can change so quickly at certain points of their relationship.

"Look, we need to find out more information about this, how about we just stick here and watch the news?" Jake asked caringly, but Miley shook her head.

"That's why we go home." She sighed. "Look, I'm almost certain that if we do end up going home, my dad will be there with news about Matt." She sighed.

"Why don't you just call your dad? Ask him from here." Freddy suggested, but once again Miley shook her head.

"I need to go home. I rather have an upfront talk with my dad then through the phone." Miley replied.

"Okay." Jake said and let go of her arms. "You can go, but at least let me go with you." He said pleadingly. He sounded like he really wanted to go and be with Miley, but Miley didn't catch that hint she just thought he felt bad for her which isn't good. He was being serious, but she thought they're still fighting.

Miley crossed her arms and faced Jake. "I don't know…" Miley's eyes narrowed to the ground as she furrowed her eyebrows.

"Just let him go with you." Freddy said, but Jake shot him a look to get him to shut up. This was just Jake and Miley and Jake wanted to be the one to make it up for Miley.

"Please Miley, just forget about what happened earlier and let me come with you, it's just incase." Jake said once again and she finally nodded.

"Fine, whatever." She muttered under her breath.

Jake shook his head and took a hold of Miley's arm as they both left Freddy's apartment.

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

As soon as they got to Miley's house, they both noticed that they were alone. It was dark and empty and everyone seemed to be not here.

"Damn." Miley swore under her breath and dropped her keys on the table.

Jake sat at the couch and turned on the TV as Miley went to listen to her house phone to see if anyone left any voice messages.

There were a few for some Hannah/Miley things and then there was one last one which caught her attention. It was from her dad telling her to stay home while he straightened things out with the Matt issue. She noticed the seriousness in his voice which she never really worried about, but now she realized how worried her dad has been since we first found out about Matt leaving jail.

Miley sighed loudly and left the phone, walking over to Jake. She sat down next to him on the couch and Jake curiously looked at Miley.

Miley didn't want Jake to worry anymore than he did now. She wanted him to leave and go back to Freddy's house if he wanted to because they're still fighting so why keep him here when they're fighting.

"Jake." She said breathlessly and kept her gaze down to the ground as she slung her arm over the back of the couch.

"What is it Miley?" He asked with much concern in his voice.

Miley lifted her head up to Jake and shrugged. "Well, you can go home now. I have to stay here so I won't keep you much longer." She told him and pursed her lips.

She didn't really want him to go. She wanted him to stay here and keep her safe, but she just didn't want to seem like a problem to him. He's been there for Miley all the time and she felt like maybe this is the one time he can just go and not worry about her. She just felt confused in this whole situation. It's like once her life turned back to normal and everything seemed perfect, it fell and there she is worrying her butt off for Matt.

Miley was about to give up on Jake once she saw him lean forward, but he reached over and cupped her cheek.

"I'm not going to leave you." He said and moved closer to her on the couch. He wrapped an arm around her shoulders and Miley placed her head on Jake's shoulder. "I want to be with you until someone gets home." He kissed her cheek.

"But we're mad at each other, remember?" Miley closed her eyes.

"There are much more important things going on right now and can't we just forget about being mad at each other for once?" Jake asked and tucked a piece of hair behind her ear.

"Why were you being so mad when I said Matt's name that night?" Miley finally said and stared up at Jake. She wanted to know the truth and it makes her even more confused in why he was being so stupid about it. She went through so much with Matt and all Jake could do was leave her.

"I was mad because," Jake looked down to his lap and dropped his hand on her face. He looked ashamed about what he was going to say and Miley then understood why he was ashamed.

"Was it because I was thinking about Matt?" Miley questioned and Jake slowly nodded.

"I'm stupid for even being mad about that, but I wanted you to be thinking of me." He sighed. "I don't want to be doing things with you which remind you of Matt, but that really hurt. I might sound like a wimp right now, but you thinking about Matt while we did that is just not right for me." He shook his head.

Miley frowned and put her hand over Jakes. "Look, I'm sorry."

Jake gazed up at Miley and squeezed her hand. "Why are you sorry? I'm the one who should be sorry."

"Because I went to Freddy instead of you." She shrugged.

"Yeah, well… now that everything is clear, will you forgive me for being a jerk?" He asked and she nodded.

She couldn't stay mad at Jake for too long, she liked him too much to.

Jake smiled and leaned in, gently pressing his lips against hers. She lifted her head and felt Jake's free hand against her shoulder. They parted and Jake pressed his forehead against hers.

"I love you." He said and put a hand on her cheek. "And it takes a lot for me to not be in love with you. That's how much I want this to work." He admitted.

Miley giggled and shook her head. "You've definitely been working on how to make me feel so safe and happy now, haven't you?"

"Only for you my love." He grinned and laced his fingers with hers.

Miley rolled her eyes. "Oh gosh, just shut up and kiss me." She said and flicked his forehead.

He laughed and kissed her once again.

A/N Sorry if it's taking me forever to update, I just haven't been in the Jiley mood and now that AJH aired, it's making me like Jiley again and I might even make a Jiley video because that's how Jiley'd out I am LOL. Anyway hope you liked this chapter. Sorry if it was too short!

So which do you like better, if I wrote it in 3rd person or if I wrote it in 1st person? I'm kinda having trouble on that.

By the way, how did you like AJH?
