A/N: Yup this is late once again but I had a softball game Sunday and Monday that I had no idea about lol. So please forgive me. And I'm also asking you to forgive me if this chapter is short. I absolutely suck at making my updates long but I promise I'm working on that :P
Miley's POV
"Have a great night everyone! Thank you for being such a great audience!"
I smiled at the crowd even though my eyes were filled with tears and my voice was shaky. Tomorrow it'd be all over the tabloids: "Hannah gets emotional at the Rock-a-Fella." Whatever. I made my way towards the backstage and walked right by Lilly and Jackson towards my dressing room. "Hannah that was a great-" I didn't even bother listening to Lilly. Oliver and Jake were standing outside the door trying to look as if they were just friends. I pulled them both in there with me and locked the door.
"Guys what the hell was that?!" I half screamed, half sobbed, when we were alone. Oliver ran over to me and caught me before I fell towards the floor. Suddenly I felt extremely sick to my stomach and weak in the knees. "I honestly don't know MiRay..." Oliver said to me as he rubbed my back.
"Miley, I know Lilly and I know how much she loves you. What we saw couldn't of been what we thought it was. I know she wouldn't ruin the best thing that's ever happened to her. Just talk to her. Let her explain." I gave him a nod and a small smile. "Not tonight though.. I just want to go home and sleep. Can you guys spend the night?" I asked with unshed tears in my eyes. They both agreed as we made our way out of the dressing room.
Since it was still early, I had to leave my wig on until we got away from the arena. As soon as the doors opened, I heard the camera's going off and I was blinded by all the flashes. I kept my head down as we walked towards my limo but that didn't stop the reporters from attacking me with questions.
"Hannah, why such an emotional performance?!"
"Was tonights last song intended for recent ex boyfriend Nick Jonas?!"
"Or maybe for ex boyfriend Jake Ryan?"
I shook my head and entered the limo with Oliver and Jake. Lilly and Jackson were already in there and were sitting next to each other. Surprise surprise. They had some distance between them and Jackson seemed pissed but I really didn't care at the moment. I sat in between Oliver and Jake and found my comfort in them. Lilly looked at me with a confused expression on her face. Dad looked in between us and I knew he was surprised at the seating arrangement. I was too tired to say anything though so I laid my head on Jake's lap and just rested my eyes the entire ride.
"Lilly are you spending the night?" I heard my dad ask as we pulled up in front of Lilly's house. "Um ye-" "She cant tonight dad. Her mom won't let her." I replied rather quickly. Lilly looked at me with a hurt expression on her face. Avoiding Lilly's look, I glanced at my dad then down at my hands. "Ok..." Lilly said while taking off her wig, she leaned in for a kiss but I turned my head and she kissed my cheek. "Night everyone.. Night baby..." "Night" I whispered back. As soon as she walked out of the limo I started crying. Oliver was rubbing my back and hugging me while Jake and Jackson were having an intense staring contest. When we got home I walked straight up to my room with the guys and changed into some comfy clothing. A few minutes later dad walked into the room and asked to talk to me. I brought him out into my balcony slipping on Lilly's over sized sweatshirt to keep me warm. The familiar smell of the beautiful blond made my eyes watery and my lip quiver.
"What's wrong baby girl?" He asked while hugging me. I cried into his chest for a few minutes before calming down and answering him. "Jackson.. He and Lilly kissed today at the concert daddy... I don't get why he would do this to me." I sobbed. "Shh.. Miley everything will be ok. What you need to do is talk to Lilly bud. Hear her out. Sometimes the things you see aren't what they really are. Don't worry about Jackson though ok? I'll definitely handle him." "Thanks dad.." I said as I wiped the tears away and walked back into the room. But I stopped as soon as I heard Oliver talking to Jake.
"When are you leaving?" Jake asked Oliver as he sat across from him playing with the end of Oliver's shirt. "Two weeks. Two more damn weeks and I'll be on my way to Paris, Texas babe.." Oliver answered while taking Jakes hands in his own. Great, this is exactly what I needed to make everything better. One of my best friends to move away. I felt frozen at the steps of the balcony that extended from my room. Jake looked up at me and motioned for me to come join them. Walking over to them made me start crying even more. The entire night we stayed up laughing over stupid pointless memories and stories but the only the main thing running through my head was Lilly..
Lilly's POV
She saw. She must have. I think she saw Jackson kissing me last night or else she wouldn't be acting this way. Last night alone I called her like 10 times. And every single time it went straight to voice mail. I tried calling this morning too but it was still off. It's 11 right now so I'm on my way to her house. Hopefully Jackson won't be there and I'll be able to talk to her without him there. But of course with my luck, he was sitting on the couch while Mr. S made breakfast. "Lilly! Hey I knew you'd show up. I'm just getting ready to leave how ab-" "Jackson! Don't even start. Just go to work." Mr. S said with a certain tone of authority in his voice. "But-" "Go Jackson!" I awkwardly stood there looking down at my shoes until he left. Right when he left, I thanked Mr. S and asked for Miley.
"I think her and the boys are still sleeping Lils. You can go up though."
"Thanks Mr. S..."
So Oliver and Jake slept over. No wonder Jake didn't come home last night. Whatever. I walked up the stairs and knocked lightly on Miley's door before slowly opening it. I was greeted with the sight of Miley covering Oliver and Jake with a blanket as they slept on her futon. She turned around to look at me and then turned back around and walked on to the balcony. I followed her and smiled at the fact that she had my volleyball sweatshirt on. When I stepped out onto the balcony she pated the spot between her legs on the sun chair and I sat down. She put her arms around my waist and kissed my cheek before resting her chin on my shoulder. I shuddered as the wind grew stronger and the sky turned a shade darker.
"Why'd you do it?" Miley asked me as she hugged me tighter. I turned slightly in her arms and gave her a kiss right on the lips. She kissed back a bit harder and bit my bottom lip. I knew we had to talk so I pulled away and smiled while leaning into her hug. "I was going to go talk to Jackson about what he said to you. And he kissed me. I was caught off guard but I swear baby when I realized what he was doing I pushed him off." "...Ok. I believe you..." "You do?" I asked rather shocked. "Just like that?" She looked at me with an amused expression and pecked my lips. "Yes. Just like that babe..."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sound of the rain hitting the roof sort of sent a relaxing feeling through the room. Oliver and my brother were laying on the couch together while Miley and I sat in the big single-seater. I was currently sitting on her lap while we watched The Hills Have Eyes. Every 30 seconds I buried my head into Miley's shoulder and she just laughed at my cowardliness.
When the movie ended it was around 5 o'clock. We were all sitting in the living room of the Stewart household in the same positions with our loved ones. Jake had fallen asleep on top of Oliver and Miley had fallen asleep also. I slowly climbed off of Miley and sat on the floor next to Oliver.
"Hey Ollie Trollie." I said with a smile on my face.
"Hey Lils" he replied while rubbing Jake's back. I smiled at the small yet cute gesture and suddenly felt cold without Miley's arms around my body. "What are you thinking about?" I asked him after a while of sitting in silence.. "I don't want to leave your brother Lilly. You know he means everything to me. I don't know what I'd do without him. Without you or Miley. Lils we gotta do something.. I can't move."
I looked into his eyes and saw the tears that rimmed his piercing gray eyes. Squeezing his hand, I gave him a reassuring nod and told him everything would work out. I'm not sure at all what's going to happen. But I couldn't show him that. Maybe if we lied to ourselves long enough and said that he wasn't leaving, it would actually happen. I mean, behind every lie is a little bit of truth right?
