Chapter Two - of ass-kicking, pranks, and jerk!

'Beep'

'Beep'

Stupid alarm clock…

'Beep'

Fine…you win… I'll get up early today….

It was officially the second day of school and Miley had already made two enemies and three friends. Not a bad start…I think…

She got up and got dressed in her school's uniform which consisted of a black collared sleeveless one-piece dress that went up to her knee, a colored ribbon that all female students were required to wear on their arm indicating which grade they're in, and a really long coat. For girls in Miley's grade, they had to wear a red ribbon everyday while men wore a blue one.

As she went down the stairs, she buttoned the pins from the top to the middle of her coat and left the rest free. Then she ate her breakfast and fed Waffles.

"I need to prepare for the worst today Waffles." She told the cat. "You know why? It's because of the school's bully, Nick Jonas. That jerk and I have waged war. God, he's cute though…such a waste. Anyways, even if he's cute I won't let that factor hinder my way. Bye baby, wish me luck!"

Since she woke up on time today she walked to school at a normal pace. The feeling of not needing to rush was nice. Too bad she loved sleeping so much. A girl needs her beauty sleep you know. Still…the morning air was nice and she tried enjoying it as much as she could.

It seemed like everything was going fine until she was two blocks away from school. Just as she was about to figure out a plan to demolish Nick, she heard the engine of a motorcycle behind her. Turning around to see who it was, she immediately recognized Nick due to the way he dressed.

He wore his uniform in an ever so rebellious way and a black helmet covered his head so she couldn't see his face which annoyed her because for all she knew, he could be sticking his tongue out at her. But what annoyed her even more was the fact that Nick was riding an expensive-looking black motorcycle.

Talk about being a show-off…

Nick rode smoothly in a cool fashion and stopped beside her. He then pulled off his helmet and revealed a mocking smirk.

"I suppose you got a license to drive huh." She said thoughtfully, pretending not to be interested in him or his bike. However, she couldn't help but admire the sleek automobile since she had always been a mecha-junkie.

"I'm 17 aren't I?" Nick replied coolly. "Surprised? Jealous?"

"Idiot." She snapped. Yes, she was hella jealous of him. He could fricken drive! But no way was she going to let him know. "Hmph, to see you riding that thing is rather amusing than surprising. You know why? Because you look like a really rich egotistical show-off that's super snobby, spoiled, and not to mention VERY bastard-like!"

"Heh I know I'm a rich bastard. Thanks for reminding me, but as for the snobby and spoiled part...you might want to reconsider… Anyways, better watch that tongue of yours Stewart. Or else…something bad may happen." Nick warned playfully and placed his helmet back on before riding off to school.

"We'll see." She shouted out and continued walking. That bastard thinks he's a know-it-all…well I'll show him…She didn't really have a plan yet but she was sure she was going to win.

It wasn't until a few minutes later when she arrived to the classroom and before she knew it, Ashley, Mandy, and Demi immediately rushed towards her and trapped her in a corner.

"R-Rumors are going around the school S-Miley. It seems like you and Nick have waged war against each other!" Ashley stuttered nervously.

"...So? I can handle him." Miley answered confidently.

"He's notorious for making people drop out though!" Demi argued. "For you to wage war against him, it's like committing suicide."

"I'll make sure he won't make me drop out. Don't you think you guys are taking this way too seriously?" She asked still as confident as ever but raised an eyebrow in response.

"You don't understand Miley, Nick Is A Beast!"

"You're so brave Miley… I just want you to know that I'm rooting for you all the way." Mandy said in admiration and flashed a peace sign. The action, the drama, she loved it all.

"Mandy! You're supposed to discourage her!" Demi growled.

"Hey you over there!" A cheerful-looking boy called out interrupting their conversation and walked towards them making Ashley blush slightly and fidget. "I heard that you waged war on Nick-bastard! Haha, nice to meet you! I'm Kevin Jonas."

"Hey…" Miley greeted warily wondering if there were any tricks up the boy's sleeves. "Aren't you Nick's best friend?"

"Sadly…yes…it's alright, I mean no harm Miley. Can I call you Miley? Anyways, it's about time that bastard get some sense knocked into him! It would be priceless to see him lose to a girl." Kevin chuckled. Frankly, after seeing so many students drop out, he wanted to see Nick lose for a change. He really was a big mean bastard and he had no idea how he became best friends with a guy him.

"Thanks." She smiled still keeping her distance and went to sit beside Nick. He was currently resting his cheek on palm of his hands looking as slothful as ever. "Yo jerk, I just talked to your best friend…he seems pretty nice. I wonder what happened to you."

That loser? What does he want… Nick looked at her silently in response as she bravely returned his gaze. They weren't sure how long they had been staring at each other but quickly broke eye-contact when their teacher came in while reading an "adult's only" book called Come Come Paradise.

"Ewww…how could the principal allow him to read those kinds of books?" Miley exclaimed quietly.

"Simple, he is a sneaky perverted teacher with sneaky perverted thoughts." Nick replied lazily. "All in all, He's A Pervert that no one cares about."

"I heard that Jonas." Corelli said in a warning tone and cast him a penetrating look. Miley giggled silently and agreed with Nick who seemed unaffected by the gaze. Class went on as usual and to her surprise, nothing happened between her and Nick. At least…nothing yet. She can't let her guard down yet.

As classes came about an end, an announcement suddenly boomed on the PA:

"It's those time of the year again students when basketball season and volleyball season starts. If anygirl wishes to try out for varsity volleyball please come to the gym with your gym uniforms after school. You will be trying out right after the senior boy's basketball game. Thank you, we hope to see you there."

Miley got up excitedly as soon as the announcement was done and went to her friends while a mob of fan girls crowded around Nick as usual.

"Are you guys trying out? I'm so glad they have a volleyball team here! But I'm scared to try out alone." Miley always loved volleyball and she was glad the school didn't suck as bad as she thought it would. It had a volleyball team!

"N-No, I'm not good at volleyball. The only sport I'm decent at is tennis." Ashley answered timidly.

"I'll try out with you Miley." Demi offered with a grin. "I'm okay with volleyball but not great. Soccer is my game hehe!"

"You will? Yay! Volleyball is like the only sport I ever enjoyed haha…as for the other sports well…well let's not go there." She laughed sheepishly. "How about you Mandy?"

"Nah, I'm not the volleyball type. I prefer surfing... on the internet. Buttt…Ashley and I will be your cheerleaders!" Mandy winked. "Right Ashley?"

"R-Right."

"Thanks you guys!" Miley said tearfully and they all hugged dramatically. They were girls after all.

"I see that you're trying out for volleyball team."

Miley whirled around to see who interrupted their little hug and saw that it was Nick. "Got a problem with me trying out?"

"No, I'm just surprised. I didn't think you were into sports." Nick said honestly inspecting her from head to toe. No signs of sports genes on her. Nice legs…

"I'm stronger than you think Jonas… Don't count on me losing easily, because I won't. You will never make me drop out." She answered with a glare.

Feisty...Nick smirked approvingly. He liked her attitude and it intrigued him by quite a bit. Miley would definitely make a better fiancé than Selena would. "…That's not for you to say Stewart."

Selena glared at Miley jealously from a distance. How dared she talk to her fiancé?! Doesn't she know that a low-class filth like her could never get a guy like him?

-

"Selena, I heard that Miley is trying out for the volleyball team." One of her followers informed. "What do you think?"

"Hmmm...if that brat is trying out then I guess we'll just have to try out ourselves won't we? We'll kick her ass…"She then thought Nick will forget that filth and admire her.

When school came to an end, Miley and Demi went to the change room to change into their sports uniforms. Their gym stripes were a part of school uniform so they had to wear the same white t-shirt and red short-shorts while the boys wore white t-shirts but with long blue shorts.

"Miley, are you done yet?" Demi called, stuffing all her belongings into her locker.

"Coming! Demi, do you by any chance have a hair-tie? I don't like having my hair in the way when I'm playing sports." Miley explained as she came out of the change room.

"Yup, I always keep a spare. It's just that I have to…find…" She dug around her sports bag for a few minutes she finally found a white hair-tie and handed it to Miley. "…it first."

"Thanks Demi! We better go now; I think Ashley and Mandy are waiting for us outside."

"Yeah…we don't want them to worry now do we - hey… you know, you look good in a ponytail." Demi complimented as she noticed Miley finished tying her hair carelessly.

"Really?" She blushed. "Wow…this is the first time somebody said something that nice to me."

"You kidding me? Where did you come from? A land where everyone is so hot that they think everyone else is ugly?"

"Stop making me shy Demi."

"What? It's the truth! I can never tie my hair up in a ponytail. It looks too weird."

"Tie it up and let me-"

"Hey you!" A notorious punk interrupted them as soon as they entered the gym.

"Yeah?" Miley raised an eyebrow and looked at him. His face was covered with piercing and he looked like a drop-out pimp.

"Can I have your number?"

"WHA-"

Before she could finish, Demi pulled her arm and pointed at the front. "Don't mind them Miley, they're just losers looking for trouble. Look, Ashley is waving to us. Let's go!"

"O-Ok…" She nodded obediently and blushed again. It was strange getting so much attention and she felt really flattered, but was she really that good looking? Back in her old school, nobody even paid attention to her much less called her hot.

As they arrived at the bench they saw Mandy and Ashley sitting beside a cheerful Kevin and immediately Miley put her guards up again. Maybe Kevin was a spy for Nick.

"What took you guys so long?" Mandy asked.

"Losers." Demi muttered and sat beside them.

"Did you know that Nick is on the basketball team?" Kevin asked brightly.

"No… but go figure." Miley remarked. With a body like Nick's and his popularity, she wouldn't be surprised if Nick was the star player on the team.

Kevin just laughed however. "So what are you going to do to Nick? About the 'war' I mean."

"I don't know yet but I'm going to win. Why? Are you his spy?" She looked at him suspiciously.

"No, I'm not a spy for him. I'm serious, I'm really harmless…just ask Ashley!" Kevin grinned and nudged Ashley jokingly instantly making the poor girl go red. However, the boy didn't notice and directed his attention back to Miley again. "You're a pretty brave girl, I can see why he likes you..."

"What did you say?" Miley asked, not catching his words for she was too busy staring at Ashley.

"Nothing at all."

Nick entered the gym casually and braced himself in case any fan girls came his way. But no fan girl did much to his delight and allowed him to continue his business of putting on his wrist protectors when all of the sudden, he heard some boys talking about the new girl.

Had she gotten this popular already? Her looks aren't too bad but wow, she broke Selena's record! And…what the hell is Kevin doing right now?Nick growled slightly as he saw the said guy chatting with Miley.

-

"WE LOVE YOU NICK!" His fan girls shouted as he walked calmly to where Miley was sitting and ignored everyone else in his way.

-

"Yo, loser what are you doing?" Nick demanded coolly.

"To watch you fail in basketball and cheer Miley and Demi on bastard!" Kevin replied, silently laughing at Nick's jealous expression.

"Very funny idiot." He grinned sarcastically at him and classified him as harmless. He knew Kevin just wanted to piss him off. Anyhow, he propped his hand against Kevin's face as if he was a wall to lean on and looked at Miley.

"He-mmm!!" Kevin mumbled helplessly and tried to pry Nick's vengeful hand off his face but the man held on tightly.

Nick smirked at the squirming boy and noticed Miley's hair tied up in a high ponytail. It made her cuter than before and explained why boys were talking about her.

Her face won't be like that for long though…Nick thought deviously.

"That's nice of you Jonas." Miley commented with utter boredom as she observed him and Kevin. It made really made her wonder how they ever became best friends or not. She then smiled sweetly at Nick and clasped her hands together. "Anyways, good luck on your tryout! I hope you don't trip."

"Aww…how nice. I know you'll be thinking about me." He replied making her jaws drop.

"What? I was being sarcas- NO- you!"

"Nick, it's time." Coach Wilson, the basketball team's manager called out and hustled everyone on to the court.

"Hn…see yah Stewart." He bid hotly and left for the middle of the gym. He played centre of course since his parents owned the school and he was considered as the best player on the team.

Miley felt her face burn red as she watched him shoot the ball from the three point line. She hated to admit it, but he was really good. But did the fan girls have to get so worked up about it? She could here fan girls behind her shouting here and there like freaks.

Don't they ever get tired? How can Nick ever stand them?!Miley thought in annoyance.

"But he is a good player." She murmured without thinking and rested her chin on her knuckles, observing Nick really hard. Her friends looked at her and at each other in surprise but didn't say anything.

The first quarter went by quite fast and soon the whole game after. The final score was 74-50 which meant Nick's team had won and it was time for the girl's tryouts to begin.

Miley was a little bit nervous but her friends cheered her on. Demi wasn't nervous at all. They got up and went to the volleyball court that was set up after the basketball game. Coach Anne, the volleyball coach as well as the school's medic was already in the middle of the court waiting for girls who wanted to try out. Nick got a water bottle, came back from where he was and sat beside Kevin to watch the try-out. He wanted to see just how good Miley is.

Meanwhile, Coach Anne told the girls to find a partner and write their names down on a sheet of paper. Miley of course went with Demi and went to sign up. Selena was paired up with a friend of hers and were both giving Miley and Demi the evil glares.

They ignored them and after every girl was done, Coach Anne gave them the outline of the try-out. Each pair was going to have a face-off with another pair and she (Coach Anne) will determine whether their skills are qualified or not.

Coach Anne started randomly sorting out the pairs that will go each other and since God was so kind, fate decided that Miley and Demi were to go against Selena and her friend and be the first to start the try-out.

Miley and Demi groaned at their luck. However, what made it worse for Miley was that the volleyball court was right beside her friends and NICK! This made Miley even more nervous. She didn't want to lose badly in front of Nick and make a fool out of herself.

As they went to their designated court, they passed Kevin and them and stopped for a moment to tell them their foe.

"W-We're rooting for you Miley and Demi!" Ashley smiled.

"Kick their butt!" Mandy shouted. "Especially her butt!"

"Hope you don't die." Nick laughed teasingly causing the others to secretly glance at him in surprise. He never laughed that easily. But they said nothing since none of them wanted to fall under Nick's wrath.

"Very funny Nick…What do you mean?" Miley rolled her eyes and faced him.

"Oh, I remember now! Selena's skill isn't very good and her balls always go berserk." Kevin interrupted as he suddenly remembered the time when he watched the girls play volleyball during PE class.

"Her balls?" Demi echoed getting the wrong meaning. Miley and the others giggled.

"What he means is that when she passes the volleyball to the other side it goes everywhere. Strange enough, the ball never goes out of line. It's one of Selena's specialty. If there were six people on each team as it will normally be, you would get Selena out easily since each player covers an area on the court. But now, since there's only the two of you, you guys will have to run around like mad to get the ball." Nick explained.

"Thanks, I'll keep that in mind." Miley made a mental note and smiled at him forgetting that he was her mortal enemy. But before she could remember, Coach Anne called them to hurry and get ready for the mini-match.

Nick felt his heart suddenly gave a lurch as Miley smiled at him and frowned. What the hell?... Deciding it was nothing big, he ignored it and watched the game.

Shit… I can feel so many eyes on me! Its killing me!Miley panicked. Demi noticed and smiled. "It's okay Miley, just remember we're kicking Selena's butt here!"

Miley nodded and closed her eyes for a few seconds and put on her knee pads. "I can do this! I'm going to get in the team and kick Selena-pig's porky fat butt! It'll serve her right to glare at me."

She then got on the court and caught the ball that Coach Anne passed to her. Coach Anne held her hand professionally straight and blew the whistle indicating the match has started. Miley bounced the ball a few times to warm up and threw the ball upwards as she said service and did an overhand serve. The ball went over the net and bounced on the opposite floor.

"POINT!" Coach Anne called and the spectators cheered. This gave Miley more confidence and did four more overhand serves that Selena and her friend failed to get again. However, on her last serves, Selena's friend somehow managed to get it and passed it to Selena who bumped it.

"Uh oh here it comes..." Kevin muttered.

The ball went way behind Miley and bounced on the line since she thought it was going to be out. But Coach Anne blew the whistle and announced a point for Selena's team making Miley's jaw dropped. "I think what Kevin and Nick said was right."

"Already am girl!" Demi replied and pat her shoulders.

It was now Selena's group to serve and as Selena did an underhand serve it went up high but didn't touch the ceiling like people thought it would. Miley quickly ran to the right despite the fact that it looked like it was going to go out of bounds and managed to volley it back to Demi who passed back with a bump and Miley spiked it which caught them by surprise.

Selena's gang who were on the bench cheering for their leader booed at Miley and Demi. But the rest cheered loudly, especially the boys. Some were for Demi but most were directed Miley. Demi blushed as soon as she noticed Joe clamping his hands like a gentlemen and was staring at her.

"Wow, they make a great team don't they?! Did you see that spike Nick?" Kevin shouted excitedly.

"Quiet loser! I have eyes!" Nick growled and plugged his ears to prevent himself from going nearly deaf by Kevin's shouting.

"But they're just so good!!"

"Yeah…" He nodded quietly and continued watching the game intently. Kevin smiled at his best friend cheekily and went back watching too.

For the next twenty minutes, Miley and Demi spent a majority of their time running back and forth, sliding everywhere, jumping up and down just to catch Selena's balls. (Don't think the naughty way now.)

The score in the end was 20-19 because Miley was nice and told Demi to go easy. They were damn tired though and Selena's team looked more worn out than them.

"Miley and Demi, what the hell are you guys doing! You're acting way too nice, now KICK HER BUTT!" Mandy cried fiercely. Miley, Demi, Kevin, Ashley, and Nick sweat dropped. (Mandy had a deep grudge against Selena you see, since Selena accidentally knocked her lunch down and went away laughing.)

Selena's temper rose up as well after hearing Mandy's comment and yelled at Miley. "Forehead girl! Get ready to retrieve your damn butt from hell!"

"SELENA GOMEZ! I will not tolerate any coarse language in my gym, if you say another swear word then detention for you!" Coach Anne shouted furiously.

Miley however, lost her patience too and yelled back despite Coach Anne's warning to Selena, "You shit of a pig! It's you who's going to get your butt kicked! Consider twice about getting my ass kicked to hell!!"

"STEWART!" Coach Anne fumed. "You will receive detention too if you swear again."

Nick and Kevin burst out laughing as they saw Coach Anne's face go red and Miley getting fired up. "They sure have the nerve to swear don't they?"

"You got that right."

Miley glared at the two boys from a distance. What was so funny? Selena just dissed her! Flames burst from her eyes and body as her temper rose. Demi sweat dropped along with her friends but the crowd went wild as the game got more intense.

"Cat fight! Cat fight!" They chanted.

"Demi can I do the last five spikes?" Miley asked, tightening up her hair. "I'll give them their cat fight."

"Sure, whatever it takes for you to piss her off the face of the earth!" Demi grinned.

It was Selena's serve again and since she really had no special talent in volleyball, she didn't know how to do an overhand serve which was stronger and faster, so she just fired a weak underhand serve lamely. Demi caught the ball easily and passed it to Miley who jumped and spiked as hard as ever. Selena and her friend failed to catch the ball as always and growled. They continued to miss, but luck was finally on their side and allowed them to catch the last two.

Yet, even though they managed to catch it, the force of the ball hurt their hands so much that they immediately dropped it. Miley sure was really mad making her last spike even madder and created an unforgettable memory for all of the audience. It was also the game point too.

Miley served her last ball which Selena manage to get and bump it to the opposite court. Miley slid on the ground towards Nick and passed it to Demi who set it back letting Miley do the hardest spike she had ever done. The ball showered down to the other side with full force but since Selena didn't want to lose, she raced forward to sacrifice herself for the upcoming meteor.

But on the trip, she accidentally slipped and slid forward only to meet face to face with the ball going at the speed of light. Selena shrieked as the ball came and hit her square in the face and bounced on the floor.

"SELENA!" her friend cried followed by a silence in the gym. Miley, without thinking, went under the net and ran to Selena, her enemy.

"Oh my god! I AM SO SORRY Selena!" Miley apologized loudly, reaching her hand out to help her.

The audience was dead silent and leaned forward eagerly to watch. Nick along with the rest stood up in alarm and watched intently.

Selena slowly opened her blackened eyes and got up by herself, refusing any help. Then to all the people's surprise, she pushed Miley hard onto the floor. "YOU DID THIS ON PURPOSE DIDN'T YOU! MY EYE! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY EYE?!"

"Girls!" Coach Anne quickly yelled pointing at Selena's gang. "Bring her to the medical room." If things did not get taken care of quick, a fight will surely break out.

Demi hurriedly rushed over to Miley's side and pulled her up. "Are you alright Miley?"

"Yeah." She replied weakly, still feeling sorry for Selena. She didn't mean to hit her and she guess, she would blow up if Selena hit her with the ball too.

- Beep -

"Game over! Game goes to Miley and Demi." Coach Anne announced despite the situation since the ball did bounce on the floor making Miley and Demi the winners of the match.

The audience cheered and got up on their feet, clapping madly. Mandy, Ashley, Nick, and Kevin quickly ran over to the winning two and congratulated them.

"Wow, you guys were great!" Kevin and Ashley yelled in unison.

"You really kicked her butt, I'm so proud of you guys!" Mandy yelled and gave them a big hug.

"It's all thanks to Demi really. Without her awesome sets, I wouldn't have been able to complete my strikes!" Miley said modestly giving Demi a friendly punch.

Demi just shrugged and grinned, "We're both great Miley."

Beep –

"It's time for the next group to come up! Miley, please take care of yourself. You and Demi did great today." Coach Anne notified and ushered all them off the court since the next team will start their match soon. Demi, Ashley, Mandy, and Kevin nodded and went happily out of the gym to talk about the game, leaving Nick and Miley walking behind.

"..."

"You okay?" Nick asked quietly. Selena did push her rather quite hard

"Yeah, I kind of feel sorry for Selena though." She replied back, rubbing her butt and looked at him with a confused face. Weird… he's acting… kind of nice…

Nick then smirked, returning back to himself. "You're good at volleyball...for an amateur!"

Ok...I take that back…he's still a jerk…

Miley smiled nonetheless and slung an arm around his neck jokingly. Spectators gasped lightly as they watched Miley perform such daring move and winced as Nick pushed her off. Or so they thought. To their surprise, Nick did absolutely nothing.

Fan girls were ready to take her out but were afraid that Nick might blow considering he didn't tell Miley to get off of him.

Miley, oblivious to it all grinned toothily since all the spectators were behind her. "Thanks jerk, now you know who you're up against!"

"Whatever…" Nick smiled slightly not mind the contact between them and made no further comment. I can't wait to see your face...

They joined up with the rest outside and waited for the tryout to finish. Maybe Coach Anne will tell them the results immediately but it turns out she was going to post it up shortly tomorrow. It was dark out already and the change room was overcrowded.

Nick hastily went to change and when he came back, he found out Miley and Demi had just gone inside the change room due to the slight human traffic.

Any minute now... Nick thought contently.

"What are you planning Nick?" Kevin asked eyeing him, knowing something was up.

"You'll see loser."

As if on cue, screams suddenly erupted from the change room and a throng of girls came running out a little bit wet. Some girls didn't even bothered putting on their clothes and ran out with only under garments on. The boys in the hallway felt their eyes popped out at the sight of so many bras. Nick just chuckled, ignoring the others and watched the exit of the girl's locker room with anticipation.

Everyone could hear the sprinklers of the girl's change room go off and one by one, more girls ran out –each wetter than before. Demi followed out after, looking pretty wet but the last person was the wettest of all. It was Miley. She was drenched from head to toe since she was the farthest from the exit.

Miley stood by the doorway coughing and trying to catch her breath from being pushed and shoved. Her expressions were mixed with anger and confusion. "SA-SA- SU-KE! Y-YOU JERK! Y-YOU ARE S-S-SO DEAD!".

Nick didn't reply and clutched his stomach from laughing so hard. This has got to be his best prank yet. He never laughed so hard in his life. People gaped and shuffled aside as a very angrily Miley started stomping towards Nick while trying to keep her balance on the slippery floor. Just as she was about to open her mouth and cuss at him, she was abruptly interrupted by a shout behind her.

"MILEY! YOU WERE SO AWESOME!" Jake, the guy whom she saved earlier, shouted and came running towards her. However, since he didn't know the floor was wet, he lost his balance immediately and slipped, colliding with Miley in the process.

Miley yelped and fell on top of Nick who was in front of her. And with that, the three became a human sandwich with Nick at the bottom, Miley on top of him belly to belly, and Jake on top squishing them down. They all remained in that position, all shocked and frozen – not knowing what do to.

It wasn't until a few minutes later when Miley whimpered as she thought she was going to die under all the pressure. "M-my back..."

Nick suddenly felt his anger rising and tried to push Jake off, wrapping his arms around Miley in the process, "Get the hell off Thick Eyebrows! Can't you see you're squishing her?!"

Jake finally snapped out of daze and quickly stumbled off of both of them and Ashley came rushing in to help Miley up. Nick got up and shook his shirt for a moment because it got bit wet from Miley's drenched clothing. That stupid Eyebrows… I should've just finished him off earlier…

Catching Nick by surprise again, Jake ran up to Miley and hugged her hard. Nick growled, getting angrier and was about to say something when Miley beat him to it.

"Jake..." she whined. "You're hurting me, please let me go."

Jake let go at once and Corelli suddenly arrived out of nowhere acting surprised. "What's going on?"

Nick raised an eyebrow at him knowing perfecting he had just saw the whole thing. His face can't fool him. Nevertheless, Corelli just smiled secretly and resumed his play. "Oh my Miley, what happened to you?..."

"A lot of things happened…" She growled, casting Nick a glare.

"Nick why don't you go and help her get her stuff. I'll handle everything here." Corelli ordered, making Miley's jaw drop. Nick just grinned and pulled her away before anyone could say anything.

The rest of the people were ordered to leave and Corelli sent the janitor to clean the mess up. He knew he should've punished Nick but he just couldn't help but feel amused. In all my years of teaching, I had never seen Nick Jonas so happy and caring since 8 years ago...

-Gomez Residence-

"Mom!" Selena sobbed as soon she got home. "Remember that girl I told you about yesterday? Look what she did to me? She humiliated me and now I won't make it on the volleyball team! WHAAA!"

"Selena! You're eyes! What happened?!" Her mother rushed to her side.

"That girl did this to me that's what!"

"Oh honey! Don't worry; I'll take care of everything. And how about this? I'll make sure you get on that team! There's nothing that money can't buy!" Selena's mother hushed her daughter tenderly.

"You're the best, mom."

Locker Hallway

The two arrived to Miley's locker with Nick smirking and Miley fuming.

"Did you have enough? Ready to drop out?" Nick asked.

"Not yet you bastard…dude, I thought you were a jerk but I seriously can't believe you did that!" Miley cried furiously. "You. Will. Not. Make. Me. Drop. Out. You. Hear?"

"Good," He grinned causing her eyes to widen. "Because, I have more pranks up to my sleeves."

"Whatever." She rolled her eyes and lifted her shirt revealing her smooth belly and squeezed it until most of the water came out. Nick just leaned on a locker and watched her. She then twisted her hair and splashed all of the dripping water against Nick as best as she could. Only…it just made him chuckle.

Miley looked at him with pure annoyance and grabbed her coat and backpack. Sighh…I can't stay mad any longer he looks so hot and cool in that position!

Nick on the other hand saw an outline of a black bra under Miley's shirt as she bent down to get her stuff and turned away blushing a little. He then followed her out of the school and ignored how the shirt clung to her skin so tightly.

"Aargh! Look what you did! I'm freezing to death!" Miley chattered as she put her coat on. But the night air was still cold causing her to continue shivering.

Nick shook his head with a light laugh and picked her up like a bride and went to his motorcycle. "I'll take you home. Where do you live?"

"Let me go! Why would I tell you? I HATE YOU!" Miley seethed angrily as she got dropped onto the smooth leather of Nick's bike. She had never been picked up by someone else before, and secretly felt excitement bubbling within her.

Nick laughed and said in an innocent voice, "Awww, you don't mean that… besides you'll get home quicker. And after all, it was my fault for getting you wet."

"Fine…" She thought for a minute and looked at him suspiciously. It won't hurt to tell him where she lives. "…I'll tell you where I live but don't think I'm fooled by your fake kindness!"

She crossed her arm and watched Nick put on his helmet before getting on the bike himself and told Miley to hold on tight. She did, instructing him during the ride telling him where to turn. They arrived shortly after and Miley hopped off of the biking facing him with a bright smile – momentarily forgetting about what happened earlier. The bike red refreshed her by quite a bit.

"Thanks for the ride jerk; although you'll regret what you did earlier!"
