Okay sorry, it's kind of later in the week than I intended but still the same week right? Lol. XOXO

Miley's Point of View
A loud buzzing sound went off. I rolled over into something small lying next to me. I opened my eyes very slowly. My daughter was lying next to me.
"Baby, what time is it?" I asked Gwen.
"I think 7:06" Gwen's bell like ringing voice said.
Seriously, her voice was perfect just like her perfectly straight white teeth, perfect light brown hair that was wavy at points, perfect completion, perfect tan body and all of her body parts were curvy and busty and slender and small in all the right places. But her skin was the most amazing thing about her. It was tan but she had no blemishes on her skin. Never had sunburn, not a zit or any acne and Gwen's skin was soft as silk. She was every mothers dream to brag about. Here's how she came into my life.
I was 15 when it happened. My life was perfect or at least as perfect as it could have been without Gwen. Jake had just came back from shooting his movie in Antarctica. Him and me were friends; Lilly and Oliver had been as great friends as ever- even when I didn't deserve it.
And then after one of my Hannah Montana concerts, I went to an after party at Tracy's place. Well I went over to the punch bowl and this guy followed me. He introduced himself as Ricky. He complemented me on my performance.
Even though I was still a little raw about what happened with Jake, Ricky was pretty cute; he had dark brown hair and tan skin. He was tall and lean too. I talked to him for a while. He was nice; he wanted to become a doctor and was going to a private school near by. He was a senior in high school. Ricky had been accepted into the 3 top Ivy League schools in the country. He had a bright future ahead of him. Ricky, on top of that, was a male model in some commercials on TV. It was over the top. I didn't think this guy could be true. But he was and he wasn't even lying.
Well, him and me spent the rest of the party talking. We talked like we had known each other forever, but like friends, not dating each other. It was like there was no chemistry, like talking to Oliver. I still thought he'd make a really nice boyfriend later in my life anyway.
Well later came sooner than I thought. I remember waking up the next morning with a hang over in bed with Ricky. I had no clue how I got there though. I found out that Tracy thought it would make her party better if she put alcohol in the punch. Well Ricky and I had tons to drink without knowing it was spiked. So that's how we got there. Ricky drove me home, after buying both of us black coffee, that day. He, too, had no memory of the night before.
Well I walked in the house and Jackson was making a peanut butter and broccoli sandwich with apple juice and goldfish inside the apple juice. I went through the next few weeks pretending everything was normal. I hung out with my friends and Jackson and my dad. Nothing was different.
But about after 3 in a half weeks I was throwing up every morning. My dad said he thought I was sick but I really doubted it was that simple, even though I wished it was. Then when my dad was at work I asked Jackson to take me to the store. When he asked what for I told him just girl things like tampons and pads and stuff. He said no more information necessary. It was always that easy to get him to take me places. All I had to do was say girl things and Jackson would ask no more questions.
So I walked in the store alone because Jackson refuses to go anywhere near the "lady things". For once that was a good thing. I came acrossed the pads and tampons. Then right next to them I found pregnancy tests. I bought one and then hurried into the bathroom. There was no way I was about to take the test at home with the possibility of my dad or brother finding it. So I took it as quick as possible in the bathroom of the store. While I waited for it to process I bought a bunch of peanut butter cups and suckers and starbursts. Then I looked at the test while sucking on a cherry Starburst. It was positive. I could feel the tears in my eyes brim over and start to fall down my cheeks.
At that point I became aware of Jackson's presents. He had caught the whole thing. So that just made me cry harder. At that point the cashier said I could have the things I bought for free. She probably just felt sorry for me. I was a young girl who was pregnant and crying in the middle of the store. Jackson put his arm around me. We drove half way home in silence. Jackson broke it.
'So your pregnant?' He had said awkwardly.
'Yeah, at one of Tracy's parties, I met this really nice guy and well yeah….' I trailed off
'Oh I'm sure he was real nice. I'm so going to kill him.' Jackson yelled the last part.
When I told my dad I was stunned to know he had the same reaction. He completely blamed Ricky not me. At first I kind of liked that, but then I realized that I wanted Ricky to know his child and that couldn't happen if my family hated him. My dad met him when I was in the 2 month of the pregnancy. Ricky still didn't know that I was pregnant.
When he found out he was angry with himself. He shouldn't be. It was just as much my fault as his. Well when I voiced that, everyone in the room shouted no. So I didn't try to voice my options again. As soon as Ricky left, after he promised to help with the baby and pay the money we didn't have. My dad called him a dumb ass pretty boy as soon as he left. Well that was a shock. My daddy never swore. But that's not half as bad as Ricky's parents; they had the opposite reaction my family did. They completely blamed me not Ricky. And they stated that in colorful words too.
But I realized later there was nothing Ricky could have done. My dad would have hated anyone who knocked up his little girl. But he told me he would provide anything I needed for me during the pregnancy, or me and the baby after it was born.
Now I think back on it, I realize my dad would have done anything to keep me his little girl for a little longer. I would do the same for Gwen now. But Gwen is only 12. That's not possible at this point. Well, let's hope so.
I avoided a lot of things after I got pregnant. School was just one. Oliver and Lilly stuck by my side when I told them. Jake surprised me and stuck by me too. But nobody else did. I became the school's latest gossip. But I was not about to let all the mean kids in school run me out. After a while people stopped talking about me as much. They just called me a whore.
But they mainly stopped talking about me when Hannah Montana made an announcement. That was another thing I avoided, my singing career. 6 months into the pregnancy Hannah Montana was in all the magazines. And not in a good way entire. I disappeared as soon as I found out I was pregnant, you see. So all the tabloids had a crazy article about why I disappeared, each a different story too. Like I was a drug addict, or I was dead, or I had a sexually transmitted decease, if I were in a different position I would have laughed at their logic.
After 6 months my dad made me get on stage and make a public announcement that I was pregnant. Some people called me a pregnant whore and others said more power to me. But the majority said I was a dumb slut. And I agreed, even though my daddy and brother and friends would not let me think that.
After 9 months I gave birth to a healthy baby girl named Gwen Noelle Stewart-Miller. As soon as I had her they brought her in to me. I don't know how it's possible to love someone so much that you just met. She was the most beautiful baby in the world. Her first word was mama. She 3 months old when she started talking, she was 10 months old when she started walking and she was 1 in a half when she was potty trained. She was the most brilliant daughter ever.
She lives with her dad on weekends but she lives with me most of the time. I am only friends with Ricky. Jake adores Gwen. Lilly says Jake adores me but I am not convinced. Jake has become one of my best friends over the years. Me and Oliver still talk and me and Jake have become closer.
Lilly and Me had a falling out on the other hand. We stopped talking sometime after she got pregnant. She was 17 when her parents divorced for unknown reasons, and we were all worried about her, especially Oliver. Lilly's dad kicked her out. Jake wasn't aloud to take her in because his parents didn't approve of Lilly. Oliver probably could have but I don't think he even tried. But that's just a hunch. Lilly never even asked me so I never offered. I realize now how much of a stupid move that was. I wasn't there for her like she was for me. I didn't even try to figure out what was happening with her. I was too preoccupied to notice she was showing all signs of being pregnant.
Even though her and me were both pregnant as teenagers, we had polar opposite pregnancies. My brother and father backed me up 100% on what I chose to do. Her mother took off, step-mom was a bitch and father kicked her out.
But nobody knew Lilly was pregnant until her dad's funeral. Lilly's mom showed up and Lilly sat with her. I sat with my father, brother, Jake and Oliver. Oliver had Gwen in his lap. The ceremony reminded me of my mother's funeral. Only something was different. It was like there was more tension in the room.
Her step-mom was dabbing her eyes with a tissue. It was suppose to look like she was crying but it looked like she was making her eyes red by dabbing so hard with the tissue. As the minister spoke Lilly walked out. She was crying so hard that her eyes were red, her clothes were old and torn and squeezing her body and she wasn't making eye contact with anyone. Again I think about how stupid I was for not trying to help her.
It didn't take common sense at that point to figure out she was pregnant and poor. Her mother wasn't helping her obviously and he dad just died. She was pregnant, seventeen, scared and alone! I should have been there for her. But I wasn't and there was nothing I can do now.
So I called her the next day, she never picked up. That went on for about a year. After that I started trying to get Hannah Montana back on the charts. It was hard because I took Gwen everywhere with me and I was not about to make my daughter go through the same stress I do everyday by living a double life. And a lot of people loose respect for you when you are an unmarried teenager who's pregnant. Mikayla took that opportunity to take the spotlight.
But I knew Gwen wasn't a mistake. She was the absolute most wonderful, miraculous, amazing gift the world could have given me. I would take a public bullet a day if it meant she would never be harmed.
Well Gwen goes to a progressive school, which works because she is so smart. She is currently in the 7th grade. She could probably be in the 10th grade but she purposely doesn't want to be. She already feels enough out of place as it is. She has a hard time making new friends and traveling like she does she misses a lot of school. She has one friend named Allie. Allie's cute and blonde and everything but nowhere near Gwen's beauty. Jake is such a great guy to her. He picks her up from school everyday and takes her when I'm busy. Ricky is always busy so he only sees her on Saturdays.
Well I have to thank Gwen for bringing Lilly back into my life. Gwen and me were on tour when she needed a physical. Gwen has a problem with not seeing the doctor once a year in fear she'll die if she doesn't. I would know, I tease her all the time about it. Well while we were there, we heard that someone named Lilly Truscott was in labor. We went to visit and it was her. Her and me talked and worked out all our problems. We are not as close as before but pretty close. We are just so busy with are own lifes.
Gwen took an immediate liking to Lilly and Lilly still thought Gwen was one of the most beautiful girls in the world. One of them because she now had twins that were girls. I really loved all of her kids too, so Lilly made me and Jake the god parents of her 3 kids. Jake fell in love with them too and agreed to take care of them. And I made Lilly and Oliver the god parents of Gwen because Gwen really likes them, they are my 2 best friends and I think the make a cute couple. Even if they deny it. Gwen really likes Brooke, one of Lilly's twin daughters. She never shuts up about how adorable she is. Brooke and Juliet were twins but Brooke's personality was more like Gwen's. Gwen liked Juliet too, but not a big fan of Dustin.
Dustin has a huge crush on Gwen. She is always nice to him but a little more careful. Like she's afraid of getting his hopes up of her liking him too and having him get hurt. Dustin is 11.
I moved out of my dad's place when I was 21 and could support Gwen and me on my own. My dad still makes me visit once a month and call almost every day and e-mail. The guy was obsessed with keeping in touch. We now have a penthouse in New York City, but I have to tour a lot for publicity and I am not leaving Gwen alone or with anyone else but me. Her father's always busy and Jake is already doing enough to take care of her and make things as easy for me as possible.
So now back to the present.
Gwen and me share a queen size bed.
"Do you want to turn the alarm off?" I asked her
"No do you?" Gwen asked
"You're closer," I mumbled into my pillow
"You're farther." She teased. There were 3 knocks on the front door.
"WHO IS IT!" we called in a union.
"Jake" Jake called through the door. He was used to us being asleep when he got here. Jake takes Gwen to school everyday. And I don't even have to ask, he volunteers to.
"JAKE!!!" Gwen practically screamed in my ear. She got up and sprinted to the door in her pajamas. She pulled open the door and jumped into Jake's arms. He picked her up a spun her around. Like I said Gwen adores Jake and vise versa. Jake returns to Gwen and my room with Gwen by his side.
"Ruff night, Miles." Jake comments when he sees my hair.
"Shut it Jake" I mumble again in my pillow.
"Gwen why don't you go get dressed." Jake suggested. I knew he was trying to get my out of bed. Gwen and me always pick out our outfits together.
"Yeah, yeah I'm getting up Jake." I say with more volume this time. Gwen let go of Jake's arm and walks with me to our closet while Jake goes to have the cook make breakfast. We pull open our closet and step inside. After 20 minutes of looking for each of our outfits we decide on the right ones.
I put on a baby doll pink tube top from Wet Seal, short jean skirt and gray hoodie both from Hollister, Stiletto Heel Leather Sandals, put on my Forever 21 bold silver hoops, my silver star shaped necklace also from Forever21, pink Betsey Johnson sunglasses and my Tarina Tarantino Cherub & Glass Pearl Stretch Bracelet and grabbed myElle Fashion purse.
I have to confirm Gwen outfit to make sure it's appropriate. That okay by her because I pretty much let her wear anything that doesn't make her look too much like a striper. Gwen put on, Topshop Vintage Distressed Hotpantjean shorts, with brown capri leggings, a brown halter-top from Charlotte Russe, Australian pink Ugg Boots, big hot pink star shaped earrings from Claires, bold brown bracelet from Forever21, Louis Vuitton brown & pink purse, Enameled Cupcake necklace from GPExclusive!, and put on her Juicy Couture sunglasses.(AN:pics on profile.)
After I was dressed I went into the kitchen. Gwen was straightening her hair. On the table in front of Jake were 3 plates of cookie size chocolate chip pancakes, eggs, bacon, sausages, 6 different brands of cereal, sparkling water, and juicy juice for Gwen. Jake was already eating. This was our daily routine. I sat down next to Jake.
"You know, you don't have to take Gwen to school everyday. I understand you have your own life and career." I said to Jake.
"I like taking Gwen to school. But it kind of make Vanessa unhappy." Jake commented. That made me happy. I hate Vanessa. She was so bitchy and mean and pretty but she thinks Gwen a disgrace because she was a love child. Stupid bitch. Sorry, got carried away there.
"Well then all the more reason to take Gwen to school." I said grinning now. Jake laughed.
"I see your hair is looking better than this morning." Jake commented
"Oh that was a challenge." I shot back.
"I'm sure it was. For you at least." Jake teased playfully.
"I'm here!" Gwen shouted. She likes to make an entrance. She sat down next to me, gracefully.
"Gwen what time does you school start?" Jake asked. Gwen rolled her perfect gray, almost silver, sparkling eyes. He has been taking her to school for almost her whole life and he still can't remember what time her school starts.
"8:30, but I like to get there at 8:40" Gwen reminded him.
"Why do you insist on being late?" I asked annoyed. She refused to go on time. Even when she did get to school on time she made sure of getting to class ten minutes late.
"Because that's when my first class starts." Gwen said. "If I get there on time, I would have to talk to the other kids." She said. Jake raised an eyebrow. "And the guys would hit on me." Gwen added then smiled. It always got Jake angry to hear the guys liked Gwen.
"Seriously you are more protective than her own dad." I said half kidding. Jake gritted his teeth, he hates Ricky for getting me pregnant so young. Or just getting me pregnant at all. But he loves Gwen, so I don't understand that.
"Speaking of your dad, Gwen." I said slightly changing the subject. "You need to call him." Gwen has to call Ricky before she goes to school everyday because he needs to talk to her and he's busy the rest of the day or we're busy. That's how it is when you're the child of a pop star and an actor. That's where Jake came in, he takes her to school everyday because he adores Gwen and vise versa. When I am busy with a Hannah thing he takes care of Gwen then too. But I pick her up everyday from school.
"Ok well, if we don't leave now we are going to be late. Even for Gwen's time." Jake said.
"Okay, Jake, don't get you panties in a bunch." Gwen said, "I'm hurrying." She stuffed her 3 pancakes an egg and a gulp of juice in her month. It scares me how much she can shove in her mouth. "Ohh can we take the Volvo, Jake" Gwen begged. "Please!"
"Why?" Jake asked.
"Because that's what Edward Cullen drives!" I rolled my eyes. Gwen was obsessed with the book Twilight. Even more she was obsessed with Edward Cullen so much we had to buy a yellow Porche, an old rusty red Chevy truck, a jeep, a Volkswagen Rabbit and a silver Volvo. And body glitter to make her sparkle in the sun.
"It's unnecessary Gwen, we have a perfectly good limo out front." Jake said. Jake never understood how Gwen inherited my never stop till you get what you want attitude. Gwen was about to argue when I interrupted to save time.
"Just take the silver Volvo." I said tossing Jake the keys.
"Thanks mom!" Gwen said again.
"You spoil that kid rotten." Jake murmured. I pretended I didn't hear.
"Love you baby girl." I said as I kissed her forehead.
"Love you too!" Gwen said to me. Then turns to Jake. "I'm ready."
"Okay let's get in the car."
As soon as they left, I called my dad. There was no answer, so I called his cell and Jackson's cell when there was no answer. Still got the machine every time. "Hum, wonder what's up" I said to myself but didn't think much of it.
I pulled out my Voyage cell phone and searched through the numbers I had. Lilly's name stuck out to me. So did Oliver's. I decided to call Oliver first then see if Lilly could do anything today.
Lilly wouldn't be out taking her kids to school entire. Lilly's kids didn't have normal school. A special tutor home schooled them. I bet the tutor costs over 10,000 dollars but Lilly is loaded now, so she can afford him. She was a fashion designer. I love having Hannah be a model for her clothing line and Gwen loves trying on her stuff with Lilly's daughters. Mostly when Dustin is being tutored for school or else he wants to watch her model clothes. Him watching her makes her fell awkward.
I pressed the dial button on Oliver's name. He is still living in Malibu but don't think he's life didn't change. He is the president of a huge magazine named "Spotlight" (AN: totally just made that up on the spot. Lol.) He has a new girlfriend named Alexis. She's pretty enough but he doesn't exactly seem happy with her. Something's missing from their relationship but it's none of my business.
"Hello?" Oliver's voice came through the phone.
"Hi, Oliver, it's Miley. I was just wondering how you are."
"Pretty good. Alexis is here. How is Gwen?" Oliver asked. He was after all, Gwen's godfather so he was entitled to ask.
"Good, she just left for school."
"Great, bring her to see me soon"
"Will do. So what going on in Spotlight this month?" I asked mostly to see if they were going to put me in it.
"Nothing big. The Twilight franchise is rising to new levels, Gwen will be glad to know," I could hear a smile in his voice. "Heroes new season spoilers, Mikayla has a new album out and is doing a new movie, dating advise from America's Next Top Model's winner, sports recaps, new cars out, how to build a fast running truck, new celebrities hookups and other stuff and some girly crap Lexi and Gwen both suggested. Do you think Hannah Montana could do a column about your daughter and new life and your comeback?" Hannah Montana had made a comeback in the last few years, still not as big as Mikayla but has a lot of fans.
"I don't know Oliver, I really don't want to expose Gwen to the public and have it change her life." I said
"Her father's a pretty boy actor and mother is a pop star, isn't she sort of doomed to the famous life." Oliver's voice was mocking when talking about Gwen father. He wasn't too fond of him like everyone else. Lilly was the only one who was really okay with him. She actually thought Ricky was really good looking. "Besides can't you give her a fake name like yours and dress her up and give her, her own alter ego?" Oliver added.
"No, I want her to have a normal life as long as possible. She's already starting to want to join the famous world. Hey! Wait are you the one who's been talking to her abut it?" I was angry now.
"Maybe," Oliver hesitated. "But not just me, I'm sure Jake's talking her into it too." Oliver had a point. Jake was always talking about her talent. She was 10 times better than me at singing. "What age were you when you became Hannah Montana anyway?"
"Like 13, why?"
"Well isn't Gwen 12. So you weren't much older than her when you became Hannah Montana." Oliver again had a point. But he could never understand what it's like to expose you child to the public like that. I have no clue how my daddy did but I don't think I could.
"Whatever Oliver. Listen I have to go, talk to you tomorrow maybe."
"Where are you going?" Oliver was starting to get nosy
"Going to see about hanging out with Lilly today."
"Kay tell Jake and Gwen and uh Lilly I said hi" Oliver and Lilly had not kept in touch. They had a falling out too but they never repaired their friendship. Oliver had no clue that Lilly had kids but Lilly was fully aware he had a new girlfriend. She didn't like it no matter how much she tried to deny it that hurt look she has always comes acrossed her face when I mention his new girlfriend.
I hung up with Oliver and texted Lilly.
I said:
"Do u want 2 go 2 da mall later? I'm bored so I wondered if you wanted to do somthin? Txt me back! Luv ya'll always Miley!"
I was planning on flying my private jet to somewhere today. I just need to call Jake and ask him to pick Gwen up from school and take care of her till I get home. I probably don't even need to ask. Jake sometimes just calls and asks if he can pick Gwen up from school and comes over and hangs out with me.
Lilly has her strange theories that he still loves me and is trying to prove that he would be a good father to Gwen. As amusing as her theories are there not possible, right? Defiantly not!
My phone stared buzzing. I look at Lilly's reply.
"Sure I wood luv 2! Luv u 4eva, Lilly"
I was more than happy with my life. With my wonderful daughter and Lilly and Oliver. And just being friends with Jake. Right?
