Brandi's mouth dropped. "What?" She asked in awe.
"Mhm…" I said biting my lip. "I… fucking… hate… Denny's."
Brandi laughed. "Well we have to go back out there."
"No we don't!" I said swiftly, crossing my arms.
"Yeah we do baby sis." Brandi sighed grabbing my hand.
"Ugh, fine! But I'm eating your damn cherry off your kiddy plate!" I stated in frustration.
"That's IHOP." She laughed as we walked out of the door. I slid back into the booth as Brandi followed.
"Where'd y'all go?" Daddy asked.
"Ladies room, dad." Brandi said.
"I ordered for you." Mom said to us.
"Pancakes and bacon?" Brandi asked.
"You know it. And Miley, waffles and bacon okay?" Mom asked me.
"Perfect." I yawned.
"Braison, I challenge you to a game of stares." I said randomly.
"You're on." Braison said shrugging his shoulders.
"Daddy be the ref." I said.
"Okay." Dad said.
"On your mark, get set, stare!" he said using a napkin as a flag.
Once again I was staring into the same blue eyes I stare at most likely everyday in the mirror. The eyes that hide the true feelings I feel, the true depression.
I made funny noises, clapping my hands in front of Braison's face, causing him to blink.
"You're out, son." Daddy said.
"No dad, 3 strikes you're out." I said, continuing to attack Braison with my hands.
He wasn't one to play with strategy. Others call it cheating, but I call it strategy. Hey, how do you think George Bush got into the white house? You actually think America liked him?
"Miley stop! Stop cheating!" Noah said.
"Strategy, baby sister." I laughed.
"Strategy my as- batutey." Brandi said, catching momma's glare.
"Fine, you asked for it Braison." I said slowly clearing my throat.
"I'm not sorry, for breaking all the promises I just didn't want to keep." I sang in a gay voice.
Braison started cracking up.
"Hey there." A quiet, smooth voice said, interrupting the game I was clearly winning.
I turned my head and saw a curly haired boy standing there.
"Nicky!" Noah smiled lighting up.
"Hi Nick." Mom and dad said.
"Hey dude." Braison nodded.
"Hiya." Brandi said quietly.
I stayed quiet. I didn't plan on talking to the guy who broke my heart and didn't even give me an explanation for why he broke up with me and why he never kept in touch after we were "so close".
"Hey Miley." He said slowly.
I just looked at him with a blank stare. "Um, hi?" I finally spat out.
"How have you guys been?" Nick asked.
"Peachy." I said bitterly.
"Hey Miley, can I talk to you?" Nick asked.
"Start talking." I said.
"Privately?" He asked.
I sighed and got up. "Be right back…" I said walking away with Nick.
"What do you want from me?" I asked leaning against a wall.
"I want you to forgive me. For everything." He said.
"It's not that easy, but you're forgiven. I forgave you before you even said sorry. Because I loved you. But I forgave you and now I'll forget you." I said starting to walk away.
A hand grabbed my arm.
"Miley… I know you have a boyfriend now and all but-" I cut him off.
"I never was dating Justin. We tried it, it didn't work out. That's that. I couldn't seem to get over you, which caused everything to awkward. So we broke it off." I said honestly. "We're still friends."
"As I was saying, I have a girlfriend now as well as you had a boyfriend, but that doesn't mean we can't still be friends right?" He asked.
"It's been a year, I've reached out, I've kept in touch and I've stayed up starring at the phone waiting for you to call. No response. A year Nick and now you're coming back asking to be friends?" I asked shocked at how foolish he sounded.
He took a light gasp, stunned by the fact that I wasn't falling into his arms crying and thanking him for "coming back".
"I'm stronger then you think Nick." I said crossing my arms.
"You sure of that, Cyrus?" He asked in a fake ass serious tone.
"I'm sure of it Jonas." I said stepping up to him.
"I'm so scared." He said sarcastically stepping closer to me.
"Back it up, wouldn't wanna step on someone's heart again." I said backing up a step.
"Selena is never this stubborn. I'm glad I'm with her. Yet, you two are both sickly gorgeous." Nick said with a laugh, going to walk off.
I grabbed his collar. "Don't you ever fucking compare me to that slut again. You hear me? Good. And by the way you ass, I'm not a trophy. You didn't score me, you were lucky enough to have me be stupid enough to fall in love with you." I said pushing him away and walking off.
Crash and burn Jonas, crash and burn. Let the war begin.
