Enjoy!! Sorry this took kinda longer than I expected.

Miley didn't feel comfortable to go to school the next day so she stayed home again. Of course, again she received some texts.

New Message: Jake

Miley, why haven't you responded to my txts? Plz call me when you have time. I'm worried about you.

New Message: Lilly

Miley, I know you're not telling me something. I'm coming over after school today without Oliver. Plz tell me what's up. I'm worried.

New Message: Nick

Miles, what's wrong? I haven't heard from you since Monday. Lilly says that you aren't in school again. I'm worried about you. Plz call or txt me.

Miley stared at her phone. How did she get so lucky to have friends like Lilly, Nick and Oliver? Some days she didn't feel like she deserved them. Miley needed to talk to someone. Almost everyone she knew was in school, but she snuck out her bedroom window and walked down the street. She rang the doorbell.

"Miley? What are you doing here?" It was Joe who answered the door.

"Uh, I need to talk to Nick. Is he here?" She could barely get the words out for some reason. She was nervous, though she had no idea why.

"Yeah, he's upstairs." Joe said sounding confused.

"Thanks!" Miley ran up the stairs. She'd been in Nick's bedroom enough times to know where his room was. She didn't even bother knocking. She flung open his door and just stood there.

"Miley? What are you doing here?" He asked her, sounding as confused as Joe did.

"I just need to talk to someone." She sighed. "Is there anywhere we can go where the paparazzi can't find us?"

"I think I know of somewhere." He smiled and took her hand. "I think we can make it there without anyone following." They snuck out the back door together. They walked down the back alley behind all the houses. Nick lead her to a trail that she didn't know about. They walked to the end of it and Miley was amazed. It was the beach.

"Wow. I didn't even know that this was here." Miley said as she looked around.

"I was looking for an escape from the paparazzi one day so I wandered and found this place. I've never seen anyone else here before." He smiled at her. "Is this a good place to talk?"

"It's a very good place." She smiled back at him. She had almost forgotten what it was like to smile. They walked and sat on a big rock.

"So, what do you want to talk about?" He asked. As he talked Miley noticed that he looked directly into her eyes. She liked that.

"I don't know. I think..well..I think I'm going to break up with Jake." She spat out.

"What? Why?" Nick asked her. Miley couldn't answer for a minute. He did that thing where he looked right in her eyes.

"I don't know." Miley lied. "Things just don't feel right." Nick took her hand.

"No matter what you decide, I'll be here for you." He told her. "No matter what happens." She looked up at him. She had tears in her eyes.

"Thanks."

Ooo a Niley moment!! :) What'll happen next? Please rate and review! I hope y'all had a good holiday!

Love,
