Hi guys, here's a new chatper.. there's some stuff about their past, hope you like it :)

She sat across the cafeteria to an empty table, she felt every one's eyes in her back. For them it looked like Miley met Nick after a long time, hugged her best friend and left him spending time with his new girlfriend. She hoped it didn't seem like anything awkward or bitter, which it actually was.

Joe sat down to her table and looked at her with curious eyes.

"What happened? I saw you talking to Nick? You found out Justin is Alex's brother, huh?" He laughed at her.

"You knew? And you didn't think you should tell your best friend that she's making a fool out of herself? God, Joe I hate you so much!" Miley snapped and glared at Joe.

"You love me. And if I remember correctly, I tried to tell you, while you ignored me completely, so don't you tell me I'm a bad best friend, because I definitely am not." Joe smirked at his best friend who playfully slapped him.

"Gosh, that was so horrible though, when I realized that Alex was Justin's sister I seriously didn't know what to say. But she seemed nice, I guess she hasn't heard about me?"

"Oh she's definitely heard about you, there's no doubt about that." Joe murmured while thinking the other night, when he lost his temper and got in a fight with Nick.

"Well.. I still hope she and I can start from a clean table, because Justin seems like a really cool guy and I wouldn't want this thing with Nick and Alex harm my possible friendship with him." Miley said and looked at the table where Nick, Justin and Alex were sitting. "Do you ever think what would have happened, if me and Nick wouldn't have started to date." Miley asked Joe, but she seemed being some place else, not with Joe there at the lunch table.

Flashback

Miley sat on the bleachers watching Nick and Joe's baseball team playing. She didn't really care about baseball, but her two best friends were playing so she just put up with it. It was a special day for Miley, she was twelve and she was going to have her first kiss that day. She and Nick were about to start the 8th grade the next day and she wanted to be able to tell her friends at school that she had kissed a boy for the very first time.

Nick was the same, he wanted his first kiss as eagerly as Miley. It was obvious for everyone that the two soon to be teenagers liked each other, but neither one of them wasn't ready to tell the other that. But that day, Miley had decided that she would kiss Nick.

Miley told Joe about it, but he couldn't care less. He was about to start his sophomore year of high school and he thought Nick and Miley were still kids. Still, the three of them had always been best friends. Everything Joe knew about girls, he learned from Miley who was more than happy to explain Joe why some girls didn't like when he called them 'babes'".

That summer had been different from other summer they had spent together. Joe had his high school friends now and Miley and Nick were left alone, just the two of them. It was awkward at first because they were both twelve and just getting curious about the other sex. At first they spent their days babysitting Nick's younger brother and Miley's little sister. Then after a few weeks they were comfortable enough to go to beach just the two of them.

It was odd for Miley, to find out she had these feelings towards Nick. Maybe because he used to be like a brother to him, while Miley had had a crush on Joe forever. Joe was the prefect guy, he was funny and good looking, he was honest and trust worthy. Miley just wasn't enough for him, she was a child, Joe didn't see her in that way.

Nick wasn't anything like Joe, Nick was the kind of guy that got you doing stupid things like going outside when it rained and throwing popcorn at the movie theater, he was like Miley. They both needed Joe to control them, so they wouldn't get out of hand. Nick was the kind of guy that made you want to scream and throw things to the wall. Even if they were only twelve, they had their share of fights. It only got worse during the time.

But it didn't matter, because the more they fought, the more they were in love. It never came to that point when they were just waiting for the storm to arrive. They cared about each other so much, that nothing else mattered. Most of the fights were about things like, which band was better or which roller coaster is the best.

After having a dinner with their parents, Joe, Frankie and Noah, Miley and Nick decided to take a walk before going home. It was their last day of summer vacation and they wanted to make the most of it. They made their way to the beach, where they spent most of their time.

"You know, tomorrow we are going to rule the middle school." Nick smiled at Miley while looking at the stars.

"I can't believe school starts tomorrow and I still don't have a boyfriend." Miley whispered and looked at Nick.

"You could have one easily, do you have anyone special in mind?" Nick was nervous, he wanted Miley to know about his feelings, but he didn't have the nerve to do anything. He was afraid she might not feel the same way.

"Maybe.. but I don't think he likes me back."

"Well you never know, if you don't try?" Miley turned to look Nick in the eyes.

"You think I should just tell him how I feel?" She wondered what to do, maybe Nick just said that but as soon as she did something he would back off. But Nick nodded and Miley decided this was her change. She reached towards Nick and pecked his lips.

She saw Nick's surprised expression and thought he didn't like it. She was about to get up and run away from him when he pulled her back to the sand and kissed her. It was the first kiss for both of them, and it was amazing. It was the kiss everyone wanted their first kiss to be like. The sparks were definitely there, it was soft and gentle but there still was passion, well as much as passion as there can be with two twelve-year-olds kissing.

Flashback over

"Yeah, I do.." Joe said.

Flashback

Joe and Miley were about to watch Grease for what felt like the millionth time. It was the spring before Miley left to Los Angeles and they had decided they should be spending more time together. As they didn't spend any time the three of them, because Miley and Nick did all the couple things and Joe didn't want to be included to those.

Miley and Joe were better friends though, as Miley started her freshman year of high school she saw Joe much more than before. She quickly made the cheerleader squad and became part of the popular group. Nick and Joe both were in the football team and they all got to hang out with each other again.

It seemed that they couldn't ever be the three of them, which made Joe and Miley closer to each other. Joe quickly noticed that he started to feel differently about Miley, she was older and everyone saw it. Everyone hated Nick for having her, so did Joe. He couldn't have ever told Miley about his feelings though, he knew she'd choose Nick over him every time.

That night though, Miley and Joe were laying on the bed watching the movie goofing around and they were let to a situation where they were just about to kiss. Joe was on top of Miley and he had never wanted to do anything as badly as kiss Miley right then.

"Joe, you know we can't do this." Miley whispered and looked away.

"Why? Why can't we? It obviously feels right and we both want it?"

"Because, I can't hurt Nick that way, he would never hurt me like this. And you can't hurt him either."

"Why are you with him anyways? You always fight, I can hear you from his room." Joe snapped at Miley.

"We do not fight always. And I love Nick, we may not have the perfect relationship, but if I chose you, you'd only end up hurting me. Gosh you don't even like me, I know how you treat all the girls. So let's just stop this and keep being the best friends that we are, we are better that way." He pushed Joe away and smiled at him.

"Fine.." Joe didn't want to fight with her, and this way she never would find out about his feelings. It killed him inside though, hearing her saying those words 'I know how you treat all the girls'. The only reason he treated them that way was because not one of them matched Miley.

Flashback over

Miley took a bite from her apple. "I blame you for all this, if you weren't ditched me and Nick for that one summer, I wouldn't have fallen for him." She smirked and throw a grape at him.

"Aww, thank you very much." He wanted to tell her, that if she would've kissed him that one night last spring, Nick wouldn't have hurt her. On the other hand, if he would've said that Miley would've told him that the only reason she went away was because she felt her and Joe were getting too close and she liked it too much. She wanted to save her relationship with Nick, but failed misarebly.

So I think you should review now :) That'd be nice.
