I slouched back into my chair. I felt someone rub my shoulders, and I opened my eyes.
"Okay, so maybe it won't be easy ignoring them, but who said you had to let them get to you? Even though they are going to be there you, me, Demi, Joe, and Danielle will have a blast." Kevin stated.
"You're right Kevin. Everyone's been telling me how fun it's going to be, I think it's about time I listen to them. Come one let's go get lunch."
We both stood up and I gave him a friendly hug. We met Demi, Joe, and Danielle out in the car.
NICK'S POV
I watched them all go. They all went out to lunch and didn't bother to ask their own brother? To me it seemed like they chose Miley over me. I can't believe them. I get that they still want a relationship with Miley and all but they KNOW she hates me, and let's just say I'm not to fond of her right now either. I walked over to Selena.
"Hey baby!" She said as I kissed her cheek.
"Hey Selena, do you want to go get lunch?"
"Sure! Let's go to Olive Garden."
Of course she would pick that, I mean Miley would have settled for McDonalds or something simple, but that's the difference between Selena and Miley. Selena's high maintence and Miley could go camping for a week without complaining.
But Miley is a bitch, and I love Selena. At least I think I do.
We went to the car and pulled into Olive Garden.
"So, I guess we can't sing together for the Send It On song. Which, I mean, Disney knows we're dating so I don't get why they would stick you and Miley together. Like, Miley and Kevin should be together. Yea, they should. It's obvious you and her don't have any chemistry anyways. Like, not even work chemistry. Me and you have the real chemistry here anyways."
She was blabbling on while paparazzi was screaming things at us like, "Nick! Why did you down grade?" "Don't you know we love you and Miley together better?"
It got annoying. I couldn't take it anymore. "I'm ready to go Selena. Come on."
We left and got into the car. I think she could tell I was annoyed.
"Nick, do you think you could drop me off at home? I can tell you want a little space."
"Sure, Selena." I know sometimes she comes off as bitchy but she really does have a super sweet side to her. That's the Selena I love. I could see some hurt in her eyes. I reached over and grabbed her hand, she looked at me so I smiled at her. I dropped her off as she went to get out of the car I stopped and grabbed her hand. She turned around. "I love you." I told her as she got back in the car and planted a gentle kiss on my lips. "I love you too, Nick."
MILEY'S POV
Dinner was good, I actually had a fun time. When I got home it was almost 10. I got out my journal and started writing when I heard a knock at my door.
"Come on in."
"Hey Miley!"
"Hey Brandi! What's up?"
"I heard about your tour! This is going to be so exciting. I'm coming to as many shows as I can! You and Demi sharing the stage! Girrrrrl, you guys are going to rock it."
"Thanks Brandi, except it's me, Demi, the Gray Brothers, AND Selena."
"Yea, I know that, but I only want to see you and Demi. Anyways, we're going shopping tomorrow with Noah and Mom, gotta get new clothes for tour!"
I laughed, Brandi and Demi were so alike. They both got so excited easily. "Alright, but I'm gonna get to bed soon so I'll see you in the morning. Tell everyone I said goodnight." She nodded and walked out of the room. I picked up the phone and dialed someone's number.
"Hello"
"Hey Liam!"
"Hey Miley. What's up?"
"Nothing. Laying in my bed."
"That's cool. I heard about your tour?"
"Yea, I'm SOOO excited." I said sarcastically.
"Don't worry Miles. I'm coming with you, I have a bus to follow yours so whatever you go through you won't have to do it alone."
"You would do that for me? Liam, you're the best-best friend ever. Seriously, this is the best thing you've ever done for me."
"Well, then since I'm doing this for you, then you have to buy me lunch tomorrow. At any place of my choice."
I rolled me eyes. "Of course you would do that, but alright. After I go shopping with my mom and sisters though."
"Sounds good, I'll tell you where you're taking me tomorrow, but I better get some sleep. Night Miles."
"Night Liam." I hung up and got into bed. Tomorrow would be a good day. I shouldn't have to worry about Nick and Selena at all.
The next morning I got around 6:30. Don't ask me why, because I don't know. I made a cup of hot tea and went and sat on my back porch. It was a beautiful view, everything was just about perfect. Everything, except one thing. Nick Jonas was still my neighbor. Kevin didn't live there anymore and Joe spent most of his time at Demi's. Not sleeping over, he was just there from the crack of dawn until pitch black out. I swear if those to don't admit their love for eachother soon then I will lock them in a room until they do. They had one incident once, they kissed. Then they swore they were just "caught in the moment" and that they were just going to forget it never happened, but we all know they never forgot. I heard a door open and close. It sounded to far to be my door. My head shot over towards his house, and there he was, standing there, staring at me. His eyes piercing into mine. It felt like hatred shooting right into my eyes. Then, for a minute they got soft, and he gave me a friendly wave and smile. I looked away as fast as ever and walked into my house trying to make it seem like I wasn't running, when I was. I still couldn't bare to look at him without wanting to rip his head off. Ever since that night. The night everything changed and shaped our relationship into what it is now.
Flashback
I was going to surprise Nick, I got an extension on my vacation from filming The Last Song. I was walking up to his house when I heard music playing in the backyard so I walked back there. In an instant my eyes started to fill with tears. Then it happened. He leaned in. I watched. Then she leaned in too. I couldn't do anything but just stand there. My whole body felt numb. The tears weren't coming out. I was angry. Too angry to cry. Too angry to scream. To angry to run. All I could was watch, then finally I managed to choke something out. I tried to "Nick" but my mouth was so dry it came out more as "Shnmick". He stopped and looked at me.
"Miley... I can explain.. it's not what it looks like I swear."
I just stood there.
"Mi-"
"NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE! Nick, it's everything and more than what it looks like!"
"Just let me explain. I love you."
"You don't even know what the fuck love is, because this. This right here. This is not love. What you showed me tonight, just now that is not love. And whatever you and Selena have is definitely not fucking love." And with that I left. I walked home went in my room and cried. I stayed there for a week. I didn't come out for anything. Finally, Demi came over and forced me out.
"Let's go." She looked at me fiercly.
"No."
"Miley, I'm not fucking playing with you, now let's go."
I just looked at her.
"I can't just let you sit in here and waste your life. It's Nick. Sure you loved him, he broke your heart. I already gave you simpathy. I don't know what else to do. I'm not telling you to move on and go get another boyfriend. I'm telling you to get out there and live, and be single. If you don't I'm walking out of here and I'm not coming back. I can't help you if you don't want to listen. I'm not being a bitch, I'm being your best friend."
I looked at her and she was about to walk away. "Wait!" She turned around and I got out of bed. "Give me twenty minutes to shower." She smiled and I hugged her. Demi Torres is my best friend.
Ever since then I haven't said a word to Nick. That was almost 2 years ago, and him and Selena were still going strong. It didn't bother me. I liked being single. I decided to cook breakfast for everyone, then I remember I couldn't cook. So I got out 5 bowls and poured everyones favorite cereal in it. Fruity Pebbles for Noah. Smart Start for Mom and Dad. Cocoa Puffs for Braison, and Rice Krispies for Brandy. Then I went to take a shower. When I got out everyone was awake.
"Morning everyone!" I said with a smile.
"Hey Smiley, thanks for breakfast bud." My dad said as he kissed my forehead.
"Mom, Brandi. Are you guys ready to shop til you drop!"
"Yes! Let me get my purse and we'll go!"
By the time we finished shopping it was 12:30 I decided that it was time to go pick up Liam for lunch.
On my waay to get you Liam. Are you gonna tell me what i'm buying for u yet?
BDUBBBBS baby!
go figure. be there in 10. be ready (:
I pulled up and Liam jumped in the car.
"Jeeze, slam the door hard enough." I said jokingly.
"Hello to you too Miley."
"Hi. Liam." I said focusing on the road. I pulled into Buffalo Wild Wings and walked up to the counter.
"Table for two please. In the back, if you don't mind."
"Sure thing Miss Cyrus!"
It kind of annoyed me that she called me Miss Cyrus. I'm not a diva. She could call me by my first name. We sat down, and ordered our drinks.
"So Miley," Liam said sipping his Coke. "When does tour start?"
"Well, rehearsal starts in two weeks. And I think the first date is on July 17th. So you better get shopping, you'll need a lot of clothes!"
"Don't worry Miley. I'll be there for you, you're my best friend. I'm not going to let you go through this alone. Even though you'll have Demi. You'll need me too!"
"Nah, I don't think I'll need you that much." I winked.
"Ouch.. Wow Miles. After all we've been through."
"I'm kidding!"
We sat for a while talking about different subjects. The waitress brought the check and after arguing for a while Liam ended up paying. So I stopped by pinkberry without telling him and got some. After all I already knew his favorite.
The past two weeks went extremely fast, before I knew it I was standing next to Nick while he was strumming the guitar.
A word's, just a word
'til you mean what you say
I looked at Liam the whole time, he was giving me reassuring looks the whole time. It made me feel less uncomfortable. I loved Liam, as a brother. And he loved me, as a sister. We had that talk, and it brought us closer.
And love, isn't love
'til you give it away
I glanced over at Nick and he was starring at Selena. Now we have to sing together. This is our first time singing this song together and as a group.
We've all gotta give
Yeah,something to give
To make a change
Demi and Joe walked over on my side and Kevin and Selena walked over on Nick's side. I have to admit this song was kind of catchy. I actually kind of liked it. I seen Liam still looking at me so I smiled at him. He winked at me and I looked over at him. I could tell he thought something was going on between when there obviously wasn't.
Send it on
On and on
Just one hand can heal another
Be a part
Reach your heart
Just one spark starts a fire
With one little action the chain reaction
Will never stop
Make it strong
Shine a light and send it on
After five hours rehearsal was finally over. I have to admit it was that bad. I mean when I sang 7 things Nick wasn't expecting it but it was definitely on my set list and I would be singing it every night so I had to practice.
