Nick's POV

I got back to Miley's house at exactly 10:15 pm, the whole day at the music video set I didn't get any warning that the alarm had been set off, so I didn't understand how Miley wasn't even in the house when I got there.

I didn't immediately look for her since I didn't know where to look, I considered calling Tish but it'll only get her in trouble and I don't want to worry her mother. Instead I tried to see if I missed anything and the alarm actually had gone off and it didn't tell me, but if that happened wouldn't the alarm still go on until now?

I finally decided to call the alarm guy to ask, I didn't care it he was probably asleep and rang his number immediately. "Hello?" He picked up after a while, he sounded like I woke him up from his sleep.

"Hey, It's Nick J, sorry to bother you at this hour but I think something's wrong with the alarm because it seemed that someone actually got out of the house and it didn't make any sound."

There was a pause "Really?"

I nodded "Yeah, my girlfriend snuck out."

He didn't ask questions about why I locked my 'girlfriend' in her house, but he promised that customers information are confidential. I trusted his words. "It didn't go off? Well, that's weird...did you forget to lock it?"

I shook my head "No, I didn't forget."

There was another pause "Hold on, Mr. Nick Jonas, let me check your account's activity." He said and I could hear him typing, after a moment or so he cleared his throat. "Well, Sir, it seems that you didn't forget to lock it...but somebody disabled it."

I furrowed my eyebrows "How?!" I demanded, I didn't pay this crap product to have this kind of malfunction.

"Well, um, there seems to be another device logged into your account. It says it's an iPhone. Do you have two phones Mr. Nick Jonas?"

He should stop calling me Mr. Nick Jonas. "No, no I don't. Can you track whose it is?"

"No, sorry, Mr. Nick Jonas but I could tell you the exact time this iPhone disabled the alarm system, there are two activities, the first was around 2pm...that looks like the time I left your residence, and the other is 9:12 pm."

"God," I muttered "You sure you can't find this iPhone?"

"Well, it may take a while--"

"Good, find out who it was. Call me when you're done." I said and hung up before he could respond. I let out a long breath and buried my face in my hand in frustration. I looked at my phone again and looked for Miley's number and was ready to threaten her to tell her where she is before I tell her mom.

I couldn't believe after having to install a freaking alarm and hiding all her car keys she still managed to sneak out. If I find out she's been with Patrick I swear I'm going to kill him or both of them.

I called her a few times but she didn't seem to pick up, making me even more frustrated. I paced around the house looking for her as I thought of the places she could be. I started to feel really worried, but then angrier and angrier every time my call gets straight to voice mail.

My phone rang and it was the alarm guy, he told me that he tracked the iPhone but couldn't find out whose it belonged to, the only information he could provide was that the phone was right in this house when it disabled the alarms. Technology is weird. I thanked him and hung up.

Miley must've disabled the alarm when I was in the shower and when I was out. I was starting to stress how she did it, but I stopped when my phone rung again with her name flashing across the screen. I tried to calm myself down with the fact she's actually trying to reach me and not leaving me completely hanging with no clue. I was about to yell at her and be like 'Where the fuck are you?' but then I decided to act really cold and casual.
