Chapter 10:

Jakes POV:

"Miles" I gave her hand a gentle squeeze "I will go in with you..if you want." when she turned to me a sadness masked her face. "No its ok Jake..I need to do this myself.." but as I dropped her off I had this impending sense of doom that I just couldn't shake ,and it scared me because of all we have been threw. As I made my way inside my apartment I realized Oliver was right. My clothes were everywhere most of my dishes smashed, but when I saw my pictures of Miley torn and burned on the edges I felt my anger rise "that bitch".

It took me awhile but when I finished cleaning my bedroom I found the only picture I had left of Miley. It was my favorite. It had been a long day at the beach and after swimming and just lounging out in the sun we decided to saty and watch the sunset. Miley had her hair pulled into a messy bun with soft curls framing her face she had put on my sweater her blue bikin bottom visiable..,and she was looking out into the ocean deep in thought..she was beautiful.I carefully placed the picture inside a frame and placed it beside my bed as I went to finish cleaning the rest of the apartment.

Wehn I had thrown the last garbage bag out it was just about 7:00. I was still a little upset that Miley had not called but I figured she must have a lot to deal with so I grabbed my keys and my cell making my way to my car I han't eaten yet ,and pizza sounded good. I pulled my hood over my head and put on my sunglasses hoping no one would notice me. Wen I was ordering I saw Melissa walk by outside she looked mad really mad..but I thought she had left town. I didn't want to make Miley upset so I figured I would tell her later. I ordered a large pie hoping that mabey Miley might be able to sneak over and watch a movie with me. I piced up some twix knowing that they were her favorite and headed home.

Balancing the pizza and my keys I opened the door surprised to see Miley sitting there with tears on her face. " Baby" I set down the pizza and went to her taking her into my arms.."Whats wrong" she was shaking so I rubbed her back "Jake.." I took her in my arms and she seemed to stop shaking as if all her fears were gone,and I really liked that. I brought her over to the couch and set her down, when I flipped on the light I almost screamed.!

Her eye was black and blue and her lip was bleeding and I could see she was in pain. I felt my blood begin to boil. Miley! who did this to you?!!!" I knew my voice was harsh and loud but I just didn't care she looked so scared and vulnerable. "Baby" I held her close to me careful not to touch her. I slowly ran my hands over her arms when she pulled back her face twisted in pain. "Miley.." I pulled her sleeves up to revel more brusies "what the hell?!" I stood up pacing trying to calm down but.."who did this to you?! I asked bitterly she closed her eyes and I saw her flinch as if she was revliving every moment again.

I lost my fight then. Dropping back down next to her I pushed a peice of hair back "Miley" "As soon as you dropped me off I went in to find my dad..to talk... he was pretty upset,but he said he understood...cause I was older.." she looked at me almost begging me to change the truth "when he told me about his new girlfriend...I guess things between them are pretty serious.." I began to stroke her body gently I I felt her begin to relax..."Remember my last concert..well I told my dad I was going to take a break for awhile.." her face lost the little color it had left as if she was choking on the next part.." Jackson was a bit upset about that because he wouldn't have a job anymore...so when dad left for his date well..he yelled at me..and hit me...

It took her a moment to finish "then afterward he told he was sorry but I just left...

I stood up "that son of a bitch!" Miley sat up grabbing my hand "Jake..please...just stay here with me.." she was begging..."Miles" I kissed her head gently "How about some pizza..?" she nodded stifling a yawn as I covered her with a blanket and went to grab the pizza "Leave some room for me..!" she giggled despite everything that had happened "Dont forget the twix!" I couldn't help but smile...
