Chapter 5

The Concert

"What the hell is going on in here?"

Jake quickly got off of me so I could sit up. We found Jackson at the door and he looked mad.

"Jackson, what are you doing home so early? You don't finish until tonight." sucked and bit on my bottom lip feeling a little nervous and a scared.

"Jarren came by and said he thought he saw someone run up here and thought that there were burglars or something since no one opened the door when he rang the door bell. Now answer me Miley, what the hell is going on here?" He demanded.

"We're just doing some harmless kissing, is that illegal or something?" Jake said breathing heavily.

"Well it doesn't look like you two were only kissing." He pointed at me and Jake.

I looked down at the way I dressed. My skirt rode up exposing my upper thighs and my tank top also rode up showing my tummy. Jakes hair was the only thing that was messed up, but it did look like we were doing something more than just kissing.

"Jackson, Jake and I did nothing bad! We were just kissing! I'm too young to be doing anything like what you and Leah (Lilly's cousin back in "The Talent Show") did in the hot tub." I said while fixing my skirt.

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't pretend like you don't know what I'm tlaking about. I saw you with Leah that night while dad was out. I'm scarred for life now because of that. I even have pictures and I'm willing to tell dad what happened and why the hot tub was broken. So I suggest you leave right now before I show Jake the pictures." I squinted my eyes and walked up to Jackson.

"Fine, but I swear if you do anything bad, I'm telling dad." Jackson lastly said and walked out of the room slamming it behind him.

"That was weird, do you actually have the pictures?" Jake asked and walked to my iPod which was in my speakers and looked through it.

"Nope, but I did see something that night and I never want to remember it." My head tweaked and I shook it remembering what I had seen.

"Hey, do you remember this song?" Jake said and soon the tune of "Don't Go Breakin' My Heart" started to play.

"Of course, how can I forget our song." 'Aww!' I pouted and skipped to him.

"Let's Dance." He took my hand and twirled me around just before pulling me close into a quick kiss and then dancing away to the song that brought us together…
(Just needed to lighten up the mood a little after being told that Jarren pisses you all off :P)

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

I was getting ready for my concert, pulling on my wig and getting my make up done when someone was knocking on the door. I had to remember that Jarren got those backstage tickets, so I had to be extra careful today.

"Come in." I called and the door opened revealing Jake Ryan. "Hi Jakey!" I stood up and hugged him.

"Hey Hannah, just came here before the concert so I can wish you luck." Jake pulled me to the couch half sitting half standing on the arm of the couch. He pulled me close to him with his arms around my waist.

"Thanks, that's sweet. Are you going to stay backstage or go to your seat? Lilly should be here soon with Oliver. You can hang out with them while I'm on." I put my forehead against his.

"I don't know yet. I might stay back here if that Jarren guy does and hang out with Lola and Owen." He laughed as he said Lilly and Oliver's fake names.

"Hey Hannah, I would like you to meet a friend of mines."

The door opened and I turned seeing my dad, David, and Jarren. Jake let go of me and I went toward them.

"Hello Mr. Stewart. Jake and I were just talking about Zombie High and the next time I'm going to be in it. So who do we have here tonight?" I flashed them a big smile.

"This is my friend David and his son Jarren. David just wanted to meet the person that got his son star struck. Well kids, I'll see you lot later, David and I will be talking to Jeff if you need us." Dad said and soon left with David.

"Sup Jarren." Jake nodded his head at Jarren.

"Hey Jake." Jarren did the same.

"Well, I see you all know each other. I'm Hannah, of course. Do you go to the same school as Jake?" I asked and shook his hand.

"Yeah, I do. It's great to finally meet you." He blushed.

'Aw how cute!' I thought, and soon realizing what I was thinking, I shook my head. 'Eww! No! Stop thinking like that Miley!'

"HANNAH! Sorry we're late!" Lilly and Oliver came in and put their hands on their knees trying to catch their breath.

"It's okay Li-Lola and Owen. Meet Jarren. He'll be hanging out with you tonight," I turned to Jarren "are you?"

"Yeah, for sure."

"Hannah Montana on 5." a voice announced through the PA.

"Okay, well I better get going. See you later." I left my dressing room. One of the stage crew gave me a microphone and I walked on stage.

The place was full of screaming fans, oh how I love seeing them scream for me. It just makes me want to do stupid things on stage. "Hello everybody, are ya'll ready to rock tonight!!!" I shouted in the microphone and held it out facing the microphone to the crowd.

They screamed cheering my name, well Hannah, and I laughed. "Okay, well tonight I'm going to start it off a little differently. I'm going to start by singing one of my favorite slow songs. It's quite different from what I usually sing and I hope you enjoyed it"

I went to the center of the stage where a guitar and a chair were. I put the microphone on the stand, sat down, and started to strum the guitar. As I sang everyone was quiet. I never really experienced having a quiet audience before, but I guess it was just the shock that I was singing such a different song.

I shut my eyes as I got into the song. I belt it out as I sang the last few verses of the song feeling the need to express as much emotion as I could.

I have dreamt of a place for you and I
No one know who we are there
All I want is to give my life only to you
I've dreamt so long I cannot dream anymore
Let's run away, I'll take you there

Forget this life
Come with me
Don't look back you're safe now
Unlock your heart
Drop your guard
No one's left to stop you now

We're leaving here tonight
There's no need to tell anyone
They'd only hold us down
So by the morning light
We'll be halfway to anywhere
Where love is more than just your name

As I finished the song, my audience finally broke out cheering for me and clapping. I felt so refreshed from that song which kind of made me forget about all my problems.

I stood up and took my microphone from the stand. One of the stage crew people took my guitar and brought it to the back as another person took my chair and stand. My band started to walk onto stage preparing for my next song that I am going to sing.

I took a deep breath before talking in the microphone. "Okay everyone, what did you think of my version of the song "Anywhere"?" I grinned. Everyone just screamed as their answer.

"Okay, I'm guessing that you liked it, a lot. Well, if you liked it that much, then I'll have to sing more songs like that in the future. Anyway, my next song is going to be "Just Like You". Enjoy."

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

After the concert, I walked back into my dressing room finding only Jarren there.

"Hi Jarren, where are they?" I asked, they as in Jake, Lilly/Lola, and Oliver/Owen.

"They went to go talk to someone." He stood up and walked over to me.

"Oh, okay." I replied and just stood still.

"Hannah, have you ever thought about breaking up with Jake?" He asked still walking to me making sure that no space was between me and him.

"Of course not, why would I break up with him? We've been dating for almost 2 months and I'm happy with him right now." I was shocked, why would I think about breaking up with the first guy I really like and trust? I slowly backed up as he continued on walking forward. My back finally reached the wall, Jarren right in front of me.

"You should think twice before you date someone because there could be a chance that he is cheating on you." He said tracing my jawbone with his index finger caressing my bottom lip with his thumb.

I turned my head trying to get him to stop doing this. "Can you stop and back away before I call security?" I asked and he moved my chin so that I was facing him.

"I bet he doesn't even love you as much as I do." He moved his face close to mine. "He's always with that girl, Miley, in school flirting with her and you're so blind by him that you don't even know what's going on." He smirked bringing his lips closer to mine.

Feeling his warm breath on my lips, I pushed him away from me. "Never touch me again, never talk to me, never look at me, and never ever disrespect my boyfriend in front of me. It's people like you who sicken me. I never want to see you here again. OUT!" I shouted pointing out the door and he just looked at me shocked.

"B-Bu…" he stuttered.

"I SAID OUT YOU ASS!"

He got up and walked to the door then looked back at me. "You're making a big mistake." He said and left.

I clutched my chest and fell on the ground.

"Miley, you okay?" I looked at the door and found Jake there. He went beside me and held me.

"Yeah, I'm just…"

"What did he do to you?" He asked.

I looked up at him and he looked worried and mad at the same time. 'I guess I can tell him this.' I sighed and said "He tried to kiss me and I yelled at him to get out."

"I swear once I get my hands on him…"

"No Jake, don't do that. Just ignore him, I don't think he'll be doing anything to me anymore. Just relax and I'll see that my dad doesn't invite him to any of my concerts anymore." I hugged him.

"You sure?" He had questionable look on his face.

"Yeah, but if anything does get crazy, you can kick his ass then." I smiled.

"Okay good, well we better be off, your limo is waiting for us. Your dad went with David and Jarren." He stood up pulling me up with him and we left the place to go to my house.

A/N Seriously, Jarren is getting me mad, why did he even come in here!! Grr lol. I'm so weird I'm the one who added him in this place. Well, hope you liked it and yeah…
