You've Got The Glow (A Jake Miller Fanfiction) [Editing]

You've Got The Glow chapter 14

**NOT EDITED**
Chapter 14:
Jakes POV

***

I've been opening shows for famous rappers for a few months now and more and more people know the name Jake Miller. At first all I had was a small group of girls in Miami Florida, but now the numbers are growing. People are from all over now, the genders are mixing, the views on my YouTube videos are rising insanely, and suddenly this isn't something to mess around with. This is serious. I want music to be my career. The feeling I get while preforming and making music is the best feeling in the world, and when people support what I'm doing, that makes it a million times better.

"So what do I call myself?" Kayla asks.

"What do you mean?"

"You know, One Direction fans are called Directioners, Austin Mahones fans are Mahomies. So what are Jake Miller fans called?"

A fan base. I never considered the people supporting me as a fan base until Kayla brought it up now. "I'm not sure, I gotta think about it."

And that night I thought and thought. What part of my name could I use? Well, probably my last name, it makes more sense.

Then I thought about Kayla. She was technically my very first fan. If the name could honor her in a way that would be cool.

Miller, Miller, Miller. What can I do with that? And how can I relate it to Kayla?

Everything Kayla has every told me came crashing into my mind. Cheerleader, independent, her dads MIA, she gets--

Wait, that's it. Her dad is MIA. Her dad was in the Military. It's perfect, there's meaning and it fits my name.

My fan base is the Millertary.

"Hey, do you have time for a walk on the beach? I have some news." I asked Kayla from across the balconies.

She checked her phone, "Um, I got about a half an hour until I go out with Noah so sure."

At the mention of Noah I tensed. There was something about him I didn't like, he seemed like he was hiding something. Being Kayla's best friend means I just want the best for her. He seems to make her happy though.

Pushing the thoughts of Noah away I walked down to the beach to be greeted by Kayla.

"Hey superstar." She smiled.

I smiled back, "Hello Millertary member," she looked at me oddly like I thought she would, "I have a lot to explain."

We started walking along the shore and I started to explain to her about my fan base.

"So last night I was thinking, and I figured out the Jake Miller fan base name." I explained.

The wind blew her hair everywhere and she tucked it behind her ear to control it. "So what did you come up with?"

"If you are a fan of me, you are a member of the Millertary." I said with a smile.

"Millertary? Huh, that's pretty good. It's like a pun too."

I let out a small laugh, "Yeah it is. I came up with it because of you. You were my first fan, so I wanted to honor that somehow. The story of your, uh, dad came to mind so I got Millertary from military."

"Oh my gosh Jake, you didn't have to do that," she stopped walking and wrapped me in a hug, "Thank you so much."

I hugged her back and ran my fingers through her hair, "I wanted to, don't worry about it."

"Your the best." She said pulling away from the hug.

"I know." I smirked and she laughed in response.

After a few minutes of walking down the beach Kayla stopped walking and sat down in the sand. I joined her and looked off into the distance at the beautiful waves crashing. The beach was so pretty.

"What do you think about Noah?" She asked.

I shrugged my shoulders, "He makes you happy. That's all that matters."

She gave me that look that said "dont give me a half ass answer."

I searched my mind for something to say about him that was true. Lying to Kayla wasn't an option for me. To be perfectly honest, I had no clue what to say that wouldn't make me sound jealous or mean.

"You don't like him do you?" She asked avoiding eye contact. The look on her face was filled with disappointment and I felt so guilty.

Being completely honest I shook my head and said, "No, I don't like Noah."

She nodded showing she understood, then she remained silent. This silence brought on more guilt then saying I didn't like Noah.

I put my arm over her shoulder that she shook off. She stood up and started walking back to her house for her date with Noah. And just like that, I let her go.

Today was the day that everyone in my team meets. By "my team" I mean film producers, my manager, my tour manager, my DJ, and other musical instrument players. This is my team:

•Edgar, also known as one of my music video producers.
•Joey, who's my DJ.
•Scott, my tour manager.
•Andres, who's a camera man.
•JP, a producer.
•And Kevin, who plays the drums.

We're all meeting at my house to get to know each other since I want this to be my career. I signed with eOne Records a month ago and things are going well, but they could be better.

"Do you need anything? Snacks, drinks?" My Mom asked.

"Yeah sure. Just bring some pop and chips or something."

"Starbursts?"

I nodded and watched her leave the room. Starbursts are my all time favorite candy, theres always a stash somewhere in the house and everyone knows not to touch it.

Moments later my Mom came back in with a jumbo size bag of starbursts and snacks with drinks. "Thank Mom." I smiled and she smiled back.

"They're here." She said setting all the food down.

I followed her to the door releasing a huge breath before opening it. When I opened the door all my fears vanished. They stood there with smiles and friendly facades. They shook my hand and told me their names and I sent them to the basement where we would be hanging out.

After awhile of getting to know each other and discussing random topics Edgar spoke up, "What do you think about filming a music video?"

"Hell yeah! Which song?"

Kayla's POV

***

I have to choose, Jake or Noah?

Why do I have to choose you ask? I have to choose because Noah and Jake got into a fight the other day. It wasn't physical, but it was verbal. I never realized guys could be as mean as girls.

Noah and I were outside the school walking to the school when Jake walked up to us. Me and Jake had a little problem at the beach the other day and he probably just wanted to clear things up.

"Hey Kayla." He said with his signature smile.

"Hey what's up?"

"I was wondering if today you wanted to--" Noah cut him off before I could hear what he had to say.

"No," He said, "Kayla rather hang out with me."

Jakes smile dropped and he walked closer to Noah, "Why don't you let her talk for herself. She doesn't need you to make decisions for her."

"Guys." I said trying to get them to back off, but they ignored me.

"I'm her boyfriend, not you. She cares about me more so don't even try."

They were a little too close to each other for my liking and things were getting heated. "Guys! Stop it!" I made my way in between them, but it didn't stop Noah from asking the question that could change everything.

"Who do you care about more? Him or me?" He asked. I stayed silent and avoided looking at both of them. Noah didn't like the fact I didn't say him right away and stomped off. Then Jake gave me a forced smile and a disappointed head shake before he walked away.

He wouldn't make me choose if he really liked me. But then again, he could've just been jealous and over protective. Everyone deserves a second chance, but only one person can get a second chance.

Jake or Noah?

Noah or Jake?

My boyfriend or my best friend?

Jake was the one who said he didn't like Noah, maybe he's right about him. But maybe he's wrong and Noah is really the one for me right now.

See the new username? Its not summer anymore so I changed it to Millertary_Stories instead of ayee_its_summer2000. New picture of Jake too as my profile picture!

Sorry for the short chapter, I just really wanted a cliff hanger! And the part about Jake's team (if you are in the Millertary and know his team) I didn't include Dan because he is no longer with Jake and the team, he branched out to fulfill his own goals. He still supports Jake though(:

"US AGAINST THEM" IS ON PANDORA! Jake posted the link in a tweet so check that out if you can't wait until November 5th for the album on iTunes! It's absolutely amazing. If you've heard it comment your favorite song from it!
