Author's Note :: By god it has been some time since this story was updated, haha, I bet you all thought I forgot about it, right?! Have I hell, I love this story, it's just a pain in the arse to write, but I have made great progress and I look to finish it in the next few months. For now you guys, I hope this chapter and the rest are actually worth your wait. I've got this one and chapter 12 to post and then, I'm setting about getting the rest done. In total there is roughly – if my planning is correct – only 15 chapters left to write and post. Seems a lot when you say it out loud, but when you know what you're writing it's easy as pie.

I've been trying to decide, and maybe you readers could help me, would you prefer I post each chapter as I write them or would you prefer the whole thing to be finished and then all the chapters posted at the end? Give me some feedback please, and let me know what you guys like better.

For now enjoy Chapter 12.

Disclaimer :: I've come to the sad realisation that I do not own Hannah Montana or anything related to it, except this story so it's not all bad!

"Come on Oliver, the hotdogs are still gonna be in here when you get back! Right now, we're supposed to be standing at the side of the stage waiting for Miley to finish her song, now come on!" Lily said grabbing Oliver's sleeve and pulling him out of Hannah's dressing room. The two friends stood on the sidelines watching Hannah complete her song, 'You and Me Together.'

"Come on, Let um' try!"

"It's you and me, together"

"Yeah am always on your side"

"Noone, noone, noone can ever change it"

"Come on, let um' try"

"Cos it's you and me, together, now!"

"Thank you everybody!"

"Wow, what a show! Give it up everyone for Hannah Montana!" The announcer cried, the crowd screamed and cheered.

"Wow, never mind the show, what a crowd! Don't think I've ever seen so many people!" Miley puffed as she came off the stage, panting desperately.

"Water, Ms Montana?" A young man with a head-set on held the chilled bottle out to her, she gratefully accepted smiling as he nodded and walked off, talking into his mic.

"God I needed that" She breathed heavily after gulping half the bottle.

"That was great Miles, nice song" Lily smiled encouragingly.

"Thank Lily, anyway sorry but I've gotta run, I gotta get changed for the signing, see you soon" Miley sighed and rushed off towards her dressing room. Lily laughed then turned to Oliver, only to find he wasn't there. She spotted him at the buffet table.

"Oh, big surprise there!" She thought, rolling her eyes.

"Hey Mikey, quit stuffing your face and get over here, Hannah's CD signing is next and we need to get ready, these fans can get really crazy" She grabbed Oliver's hand and dragged him towards the big queue of people that was quickly forming in the lobby. The two of them slowly, and with great difficulty, made their way through the large and pushy crowd towards Hannah, who was quickly scribbling away.

"Hey, watch it lady! That was my foot!"

"Ouch, quit pushing, you'll get your damn CD signed soon enough!"

"Watch the hair, people!"

"Ow! What did I tell you, these fans are crazy! Um…Uh…not you lady! Aaargh, Oli…v…uh…Mike, run, she's got a walking stick and it's got biker badges on it!"

They escaped as fast as they could and headed for the dressing room. Miley, on the other hand, was hoping she could escape just as quickly. She loved her fans but well, she loved her bed more and right now it appealed to her a whole lot more.

"There you go sweetheart" She smiled at a little girl before greeting her next fan.

"Hi there, and who do I sign this to?" She smiled looking up a young, bushy haired man with tainted glasses on.

"Uh…uh…um…just sign it to JR, Jaaa-mes…uh…Rustler!" He replied, some what nervously, his hands shaking as he held the CD to Miley.

"Alright James Rustler, there you go, Hi" She chuckled watching him flounce off before looking up at another man. He handed her the CD, staring intently at her.

"Sign it to Nick please!" She smiled and went to sign it, he stared at her bent head, before reaching to stroke her hair, his hand barely made it 2 inches before he was grabbed by security, given his CD and sent packing. Hannah merely smiled confidently; she was used to it by now.

She signed as many more as she could before her manager informed the fans she was finished and apologised to everyone who didn't get their CD signed. Miley made her way to the dressing room, closely followed by her Father, only to find the same crazy fan who had tried to touch her, being dragged away by security, again. She walked up to Oliver and Lily as her Father went to speak with the security officer.

"Caught him sneaking out your room" Oliver informed her as she approached them.

"Hmmm, he tried to touch my hair earlier too, the lengths some fans will go to" She smirked knowingly at Lily and Oliver.

"What! The window was open; it was just dying to have someone climb in through it, right Oliver" Lily grinned, turning to him.

"That's right, besides I only wanted a towel, Lily wanted you! Ouch, hey!" Oliver smirked as Lily hit him; blushing several shades darker than her auburn wig. The three were laughing as Robbie Ray walked over, however they stopped when they saw what was in his hands.

"Oh no, not another one, Daddy" Miley said, quite shaken. Robbie Ray held up another white envelope

"I'm sorry Miles, but it was in your dressing room, anyway we don't need to read it, seems we have caught the guy who's sending these." He pointed at the fan who was being led out of a room by security officers. "It's over darlin!" He smiled.

"Wait, I already told you, I don't know nothing bout no envelope, all I did was leave some flowers with a note, nothing else. I'm telling you people the truth, check the damn thing, it would have my prints on it if it were mine or it would have my writing. I ain't lying here!" The man was protesting and struggling against the officers as he was put in handcuffs. A female officer approached them with a notepad.

"Robbie Ray and Miley Stewart?" They nodded uncertainly as the officer scribbled down some notes.

"I'm DI Crawford. We have arrested Nick Jacobs with breaking into your personal quarters, handling your belongings and then trying to flee the scene. However, we have called in our team to check that what Mr Jacobs is saying is true, regarding the envelope. We wish to remove the envelope from your possession and have you wait in another room while we analyse the evidence. We will consult with you afterwards with our findings and discuss the charges against Mr Jacobs." The teens looked at each other, Robbie Ray sighed as he handed over the envelope.

"Will it take long?" He asked, rubbing his neck.

"Approximately an hour, I'm sorry if it causes any inconvenience but this is a very serious matter. Tell me has it happened before? The envelope?" She gripped her pad tightly.

"Once before, but my daughter deals with crazed fans all the time, so we thought best to leave it and not to involve the police." He replied as the officer scribbled furiously on her pad.

"Well it's probably best that we are handling the situation now, there are very strange people out there, and we don't want to risk anyone's safety. Thank you for your cooperation, in the mean time, one of my officers will take you to another room and inform you when we have finished. PC Matthews, escort Ms Montana and her party to room 54, down the hall, and stand by the door please."

The young officer quickly did as he was told and beckoned the four of them to follow him, which reluctantly they did.

"You think it was that crazy Nick Jacobs who's been sending the letters?" Lily asked Robbie Ray, he looked down at her, smiling grimly.

"I hope so Lily, I really do."

Nearly an hour and a half later, DI Crawford entered the room. Robbie Ray looked up from the book he was reading; Miley was sleeping and leaning on Lily, Lily was sleeping and leaning on Oliver and Oliver was sleeping and leaning on the armrest of the couch, they were all currently snoozing on. He chuckled at them despite the situation, before he got up and greeted the officer.

"I'm afraid to inform you that Nick Jacobs, according to our analysis, is telling the truth. In addition to the fact that there are no prints on the envelope, the writing on both the letter and the note do not match. It appears that Mr Jacobs did leave the flowers and the note but he did not however, leave the envelope. You can still press charges against him for breaking and entering. You may also want to take a look at the letter, we made a copy of it as the original is now evidence; we hope you agree to allowing us to help your daughter out. The police force already know about your daughter's double life anyway and we can be of great help to her. Will you agree to our help and surveillance on the case until it is over?" Robbie Ray's heart sunk, his daughter's weirdo stalker hadn't been caught after all; he ran his hands over his face and through his hair, depressively.

"Sweet nibblets! I thought it was over! Well then, if my daughter is still in danger then I completely agree to police involvement until this wacko is caught. Now I don't mean to sound rude ma'am, but it's 11.40pm, my daughter and her friends are currently sleeping on a couch and their parents are probably worried to death, so if you don't mind, I'd like to leave, go home and try to get a good nights sleep."

"But of course, Mr Stewart, I truly am sorry about the wait, before you go this is the copy of the letter, perhaps you should read it later tonight." She handed him the letter before walking away to join the other officers. Robbie Ray looked at the letter, before folding it and putting it in his jacket. He wiped at the stray tear before turning to the three young teens on the couch, Lily was slowly waking; she yawned and squeezed out from between Oliver and Miley.

"Mr S, did the officer visit already?" She yawned rubbing her eyes, her mascara being rubbed all around her them, Robbie Ray smiled; Lily reminded him of a panda with colourful clothes and hair.

"Yeah she did, just told me that it's not Mr Jacobs that's been sending the letters, seems the guy who is, is still out there and they have no leads. I've got a copy of the letter that was in Miley's room in my pocket; right now the situation is not looking good." He was somewhat surprised when Lily walked over to him and hugged him; but he still returned it.

"Don't worry Mr Stewart, we'll get Miley through this and everything will be ok. Whoever this guy is, we'll find him and then we'll make him pay for the heartache he is causing all of us. Like that cheesy line in Highschool Musical says, 'We're all in this together' and that's how it is with us."

Robbie Ray laughed, "You know Lily, I'm absolutely positive my daughter has chosen the correct person to share her life with, your one of a kind and I'm glad you met my daughter. I know for a fact, her mother would approve."

"I love your daughter, sir; it's as simple as that." He gave her a little squeeze before they broke apart, smiling. They turned their gaze towards the pair still asleep on the couch.

"We shouldn't wake them, you know how cranky they get if woken up. Infact I got 3 slaps from Miley and a foot in the face from Oliver at a sleepover one night. It was not pretty. So um I'll grab Miley and you can take Oliver, the doughnuts too heavy for me anyhow."

Lily proceeded to walk over to the couch, and sweep her arms under Miley, lifting her with ease and carrying her towards the door. Robbie Ray followed her lead, lifting Oliver as though he were as light as a feather and following Lily out the door. They got in the car and were soon on their way home. Mid way in the journey, Robbie Ray contacted Oliver's mother and they agreed Oliver could stay at Miley's; his mother would drop clean clothing off in the morning on her way to work. Before the CD signing, Lily had contacted her brother and told him to bring her clothes for school over when he came for Jackson, she hoped he had.

Eventually they arrived home, Robbie Ray unlocked the door and walked in with Oliver in his arms as Lily followed with Miley, she sighed relieved as she saw her bag on the couch, Michael had brought it. She and Robbie Ray took the two sleeping forms upstairs; Oliver was put on a spare fold out bed in Jackson's room and Lily placed Miley in her bed, removing her jacket and her shoes and socks. Lily respectfully did not climb in the bed with her girlfriend but instead gave Miley a light kiss, grabbed a pillow and headed downstairs. Robbie Ray told her, he appreciated her respect towards his daughter and to himself - any boyfriend would not have been allowed in the same room, let alone bed with Miley - but even if they were together, he trusted the both of them, and so he sent Lily back upstairs so at least she too could try and have a good night's sleep.

He sat on the couch with the lamp on, staring at the letter in his hands. This would definitely scare Miley, as he continued to hold it in his hands, he couldn't for the life of him think who could be behind it. He was deeply crushed when Nick Jacobs turned out to be innocent, he had hoped in his heart of hearts it was him and they could be relieved of this upset once and for all, but turns out dreams don't always come true. He read it one last time, before he folded it back up and placed it on the side table.

Good Evening Miley,

Good Evening Hannah,

Good Evening Miley,

Good Evening Hannah,

Rather confusing but extremely entertaining. My, didn't you look lovely tonight; and what a dashing song choice, did you perhaps dedicate it to dear Lily, or is it just a coincidence with the lyrics? Don't you just love the moments that are…. 'Picture Perfect'? I do! Oh and it seems we have something in common, we both know how to hide our true appearances with a simple wig and some accessories. Anyway just a quick message this time, I'm busy right now, I have to go plan my next attack, don't feel too frightened my dear.

Yours Faithfully, FRANK!

Robbie Ray sighed one last time before shutting off the light and heading upstairs to what was going to be a restless nightmare.
