im rly excited 4 this story! lemme kno if u like it :)
"Leslie! It's time to go to grandpa's house!" my mom called out.
"Okay!" I replied happily.
I love going to Grandpa Robby's house. He's really fun and cool.
We were going to a special dinner tonight at his house. Uncle Jackson and his girlfriend, Lilly, have a surprise announcement to make.
Lilly is my mom's best friend. They've been friends since they were eleven. That's a long time! Mommy and Lilly have another best friend named Oliver. I call him Uncle Oliver or Uncle Ollie. Uncle Ollie is really funny. He and Aunt Lilly are really nice. They're always there for my mommy when she's sad.
We all live near each other in Malibu, California. I love it here. It's great to live across the street from grandpa.
Anyway, mommy and I showed up last to grandpa's house. Grandpa Robbie, Aunt Lilly, Uncle Jackson, Uncle Oliver, Oliver's girlfriend, Becca, Lilly's mom, and Lilly's dad were seated around the table when we arrived.
"Hey, Miley! Hi there, Leslie! You're just in time for our big announcement!" Lilly squeaked.
Mom and I said hello to everyone and sat down at the table.
Uncle Jackson and Aunt Lilly stood up. they held hands.
"So what's the big news?" Uncle Ollie asked.
"Yeah, I'm dying to know!" mom said.
Uncle Jackson squeezed Lilly's hand. She smiled.
"We're getting married!" Lilly squeaked.
Wow! Now Aunt Lilly will actually be my real aunt!
MILEY'S POV
My best friend and my brother are getting married! They haven't set a date yet, but they want to be engaged for at least four months.
I'm really happy for them. Really. It's just that...
I wish I had someone to love me as much as Jackson loves Lilly. I guess that they are meant to be. They're both lucky to have each other. They love each other with all their heart. I wish I had someone like that. I had someone like that once.
Jake. Jake Ryan. He loved me. He truly did. One fight ruined it all. The fight shattered our romance and sent Jake away. I hate that fight. I hate it. After that fight, I couldn't tell him that I was gonna have his child. He was gone in the blink of an eye.
After all these years, Hannah Montana is still a secret. I still have my alter-ego. Hannah is at the peak of stardom. No one knows that it's really Miley Stewart. Well, a few people do, but that's not the point.
Hannah was asked to film a movie with Jake almost five years ago. My daughter was only two at the time. I couldn't face Jake after two and a half years of not talking. Hannah declined from the offer.
Hannah has seen Jake at events a few times. But we don't ever speak. I saw him last about six months ago. I didn't go anywhere near him. I saw him from afar, and that was all.
We haven't spoken since the fight. When I see him across the room at Hollywood events, I make sure to steer clear of him. I plan on keeping it that way.
I haven't seen him as Miley in seven and a half years. Since that darned fight. I plan on keeping it that way.
I hate Jake's guts. I hate him.
He STILL doesn't even know that he has a daughter.
JAKE'S POV
I haven't spoken to her in seven years. I haven't set foot in Malibu in almost seven years also.
It's all because if Miley Stewart. I loved her. I still do love her. I always will.
Six years ago, I tried calling. I even had my director for a movie offer a part to Hannah Montana five years ago. Miley declined.
I've seen Miley as Hannah at events. She's steered clear of me. At first, I tried to approach her. But she always ran away when I came near. So, I learned to steer clear of her too.
Right now, I want desperately to talk to her. To apologize. To get an apology. I feel awful...but it would be really hard to talk to her now.
I miss her dearly. But I'm still a little bit mad at her. Therefore, I think it's best to get over her. I need to get over her. I have to! I just hope that I don't run into her while I film a movie...in Malibu.
ONE WEEK LATER
LESLIE'S POV
All I want for Christmas is my daddy. I really want to know who he is and then I want to find him. This is eating me up inside. It's like half of me is missing. Like...I don't really know who I am. I want my daddy so badly!
After school on Friday, mommy took me to the park. I had a lot of fun.
However, I saw a lot of little kids there with their mommy...and their daddy. This made me really, really, really sad and upset.
When we went home, I decided to ask mommy about daddy again.
When she tucked me into bed that night, I asked, "Mommy, who is my dad?"
Mommy sighed, "Baby...I can't talk about that. I just can't."
"Mom, please!" I begged.
"Sorry, sweetie," mom murmured softly.
I sighed, "One day, will you tell me?"
She hesitated, then nodded. "One day. When the time is right, Les. One day."
