"What do you want?" Miley asked harshly.
"Sweetie, calm down, what? can't an anunt come to visit her neice after she hear about her little accident?" her aunt Mary said sounding very inocent.
"Ha, Like you care."
"Miley what are you saying! Of corse I care darling." She said trying to sound hurt.
"Yeah of corse you do, that's why I didn't see you since I was 7, god you didn't even came to comfort us after mom's death." She replied rolling her eyes, her hands still linked with Nick's.
"Miley, you know I love you. I couldn't see you crying." She replied lamely.
"Oh, really? Should I consider that an excuse?" she said her voice started to raise as she felt Demi's hand on her shoulder calming her down. When her aunt didn't reply she changed the subject "Anyway, what do you want from me now?" she said bitterly.
"Miley, I heard about what ahppened to you, and I came to make sure you're okay." She said as Miley just looked at her disgusted "And you should come to live with me, you and your brother. You know after you lost your father too" She completed. Miley felt the anger rise inside her, it was like a monster was born inside her body and want to kill anybody stands on it's way.
"What?" Miley screamed, that's when the doctor entered the room and told them to leave it, because they may make the patient worst. After they left the room, Miley galred at her and continued, "Now, you come and tell me that you care about us, I didn't even hera your voice in a single call, all these years, you didn't call my father, who happened to be your brother as well, you didn't come to see us after mom's death, you didn't come at his and Denise's wedding, you didn't come whenhe died. Do you want me to continue the happy and sad events that we went throw?" she yelled.
"You know, me and your father weren't at good terms."
"Oh, and whose to blame at that? Oh, it's you. It was you who stopped talking to him when he told you that he don't think that marrying that guy you wanted to marry, won't be the best idea, but you still did, and he was okay with that, but you didn't answer any of his calls." She said as Mary just froze in her place "Oh, unlike you, I was close to him."
"Look Miley, I know I was wrong, but can't we just forget the past?"
"Forget? Do you want me to forget 9 whole years full of events that I expected you to be there for me, and I didn't even hear your voice? Oh I don't think so."
"God, you're just like yur father, he was fucking stubborn. He didn't agree with any thing I did, he made my life like hell." She finally took off her inocent mask, and showed the real her.
"Don't you dare talk about him like that." She yelled again. Mary's face softened as she tried to wear the lovely mask again.
"I'm sorry Miley, it's just that I can't take it, I can't imagine that he died without forgiving me, and I'm really sorry, I didn't came these years because I was ashamed of him, he was right about everything he said to me, and I- I couldn't face him." She said as she started crying, but Miley didn't seem to buy it, as the same hatred was still on her face.
"Come on, Miley just forgive her, she seems sorry, don't you see how hard is she crying?" Demi whispered to her, as Miley glared at her.
"Forgive her? Ha, keep dreaming my friend." She spatted.
"Miley, give her a chance, you didn't see her since you were seven, maybe she did change, you'll never know unless you gave her a chance." Selena stated wisely. Miley just huffed and entered Nick's room again.
"I- I pro-probably should g-go." Mary said between sobs.
"No, she's really kind, she's just angry right now, I'm sure she'll come out at any time and tell you that she forgives you." Joe said speeking for the first time.
"Ok." Mary said finally calming down "Thank you Jackson for believing and forgiving me." She smiled at him.
"No problem aunty." He said hugging her.
Miley sat on her usual spot on Nick's bed, she looked at him and suddenly calmed down just for seeing his peacfull face, she felt a tear slid own her cheeks "Aren't you gonna give me my perfect life again and wake up Nick?" she whispered stroking his hair "I wish you were here with me rigt now to tell me what can I do." She said as she put her head next to his and held his with both her hands and she fell asleep like that.
Miley felt herself flying, again. Like the last time when she actually talked to Nick, when he forced her to promise to take care of her health. When she opened her eyes, she felt she's on the ground again, she was at the shore, and he was next to her.
"Nick." She threw her arms around him happily. "OMG, I'm happy to see you again, let alone talk to you."
"You always talk to me Miles." He said "I hear you when you talk to me, it's just I can't answer you." he smiled making her smile as well. "And actually that's why I'm here now."
"What do you mean?" she asked confused.
"You told me that you need me, and since I can't be with you in person, I decided to be with you as a ghost."
"No, Nick, don't say this word again, it's freaking me out." She said hugging him tightly.
"Ok, um I decided to be with you in your brain, is that okay?"
"At least better than the other." She smiled.
"So, back to the main point, I know what happened I heard you yelling before that doctor kicked you out." he said as she blushed.
"Sorry about that." She said.
"Don't worry." He smiled, "So, I think you should give her a chance Miles."
"What? You too, Nick? Do you know what did she do?" she said softly.
"I know, Miles. But you're the type of person who always forgive and forget. So please keep your amazing personality and your little clear white heart for me." He said making her smile widely.
"Ok, I'll forgive her Nick, but just for you." She sighed.
"Promise?" he asked smirking.
"Oh, no. Not again, you know that I have to do it if I promised you." She fake frowned.
"That's why I want you to promise me." He smiled.
"Ok, I promise." She gave up under the magice his smile have on her.
"That's my girl." He said wrapping her arms around her shoulder. The heard the sound of waves while looking at each other's eyes. Suddenly after about a minute he looked away and sighed.
"What's wrong?" she asked him.
"I have to go." He looked at her apologitacly.
"No, please, stay a while longer." She begged.
"I can't, but I promise I'll come any time soon." He said sincerely.
"In reality or in my mind?" she smiled a sad smile as he chuckled
"I'm not sure about that, but I'll." He said hugging her one last hug before he started walking away, into a dark way she didn't notice before, the same scene from his last visit repeated, she called him and he didn't answer, untill he disappeared, and she waked up.
Her aunt Mary was setting outside the room, waiting for her to wake up, Jackson entered to check on her a few minutes ago, and he told them that she's asleep. While she was waiting her, she started talking with all her friends and Jackson. Finally she gained their trust, and took them at her side, they said that if Miley didn't decide to forgive her, they will convince her to.
Finally, the door opened, relieving an un-smiley Miley. She walked towards them and sat next to Demi and put her head on her shoulder, hugging her, gazing at the wall in front of her.
"Are you okay, Miley?" Demi asked hugging her back.
"Yeah." She whispered
"Umm, Miles, what did you say about aunt Mary?" Jackson asked her.
"What about her?" she whispered not removing her head or gaze.
"I mean, did you decide to forgive her?" he asked again.
"Yeah, I did." She sighed finally lifting her head and setting back in her seat, but her gaze still faixed on the wall.
"Wow, thank you Miley, I really apretciate it." Mary said happily as she hugged her, but she didn't hug back.
"Um, I think I have to go now, it's getting late." Mary said awkwardly pulling away.
"Do you want me to give you a drive?" Kevin offered gently.
"No, you don't have to." She replied.
"Oh, no, it's okay." Kevin said standing up.
"I'll come with you, Joe can take care of them." Jackson said, as they all nodded, except for Miley, whose eyes was still fixed on the wall. She didn't move her eyes except when she looked at the three figures that just left them.
"What made you change your mind, Miles?" Joe asked casually after a while.
"Him." She answered simply, she smiled when she remembered her dream, she knew that it was all her imagenation, but it meant a lot to her.
"Huh?" they all asked not understanding. She smiled and rolled her eyes playfully at them.
"I mean Nick."
"Did he wake up?" Joe asked hopefully.
"No." she shook her head sadly.
"Then how di-" Emiley started confused before she cut her off.
"Nothing. He just wanted me to promise him that I'll forgive her, just like when I promised him that I'll take care of my health." She smiled, before she stood up and entered Nick's room again, leaving all the group looking at each other confused, then they looked at the door she just disappeared behind, with dropped jaws.
"Is it only me, or there's something un-understandable?" Joe asked.
"Nope, I'm pretty sure that I didn't understand either." Selena said shaking her head.
The next day Miley woke up next to Nick, as usual. And as usual, he didn't wake up yet. She sighed as she looked at his pale face, of course he's brighter than before, but still it wasn't as bright as before. She missed his brown eyes, she missed hearing him calling her name, she missed him and her making tricks on their brothers, she missed him.
"I'm keeping all my promises till now, Nick. Please keep yours too, and come back to me." She said taking his hand in hers, and bringing it to her lips, kissing it softly. "I miss you. You told me that you hear me, so If you really hear me, I'm begging you to wake up soon, I need you, I love you." She said feeling the hot tears racing down her cheeks.
She heard the door behind her opened and someon enetered. She quickley wiped away her tears, she didn't want to look weak in front of anyone.
"Oh, you woke up, good morning Miles." Emiley said as she walked to her side and sat on the seat next to the bed where Miley was setting close to Nick. Miley looked at her and smiled replying with a quick good morning Ems. Emiley looked at her and sighed when she saw that she was crying before she entered.
"Mi, everything is gonna be okay, he's gonna be okay." She said as she put her hand on Miley's comfortingly.
"I know, why are you saying that now?" she smiled.
"Miley, don't pretend, I know you better than that." She said as Miley sighed.
"Okay, I miss him, Emy. I miss him like crazy."
"I know Miles, but you have to hold on and be strong. You know he'd be saying the same words if he were here." She smiled. "And you know what? When I knew about his plan with Selena I respected him, do you know why?" Miley shook her head, "Cause I never saw that kind of love from a guy to a girl, only in the movies." She smiled amking Miley smile from ear to ear.
"Thanks Emy, you made me feel better." She said hugging her.
"That's why friends for, right?" Emiley said hugging her back as she felt Miley nodded on her shoulder.
