They D̶o̶n̶t̶ Know About Us // Niley

Chapter Thirty Nine

The night had began to set in, and I read Miley's text again just to be sure that she wanted to meet me at the MET Ball.

I remembered clearly how she walked away, and I couldn't do anything, I went into my room instead to worry about it.

But I still can't get Sophie out of my mind, mostly the baby, I keep going back and forth of how I could let myself into this mess.

I glanced at the mirror to caught my reflection in a classy tuxedo and Olivia behind me slipping into her heels. I didn't want to bring her along, but I knew that she still happens to hold a secret of mine and in order for her to shut her loud mouth I had to take her to this event.

Miley wouldn't be too pleased about this, but I'll probably ditch Olivia anyway since this night is about meeting Miley.

I turned my gaze to the mirror again and start fiddling with my bow tie. My mind somehow raced back to how Miley found out I had lied to her, it was such a mistake, I shouldn't have from the start, I shouldn't have come over that night thinking she could take my mind off things.

"Let me," Olivia offered as she started to tie my bow. I stepped away and brushed her hands off of my nape and shook my head. "It's okay, I got it." I replied and pinched the tie between my fingers.

Olivia's mouth slightly gaped in disappointment before she nodded and walked away. I caught a glance of her dress swinging around her ankles with every step she took.

It made me wonder of what Miley was going to wear, everything she does seems to amuse me, even the things I don't like, she always has a way of making it seemed so graceful.

She's cinematic.

I remembered the time I met her and she was smoking. I told her that it wasn't healthy but instead of replying to me she smiled and took a drag, afterwards puffs of white smoke started to leak out of her pursed lips and I saw it as something quite beautiful.

I don't know if it's the effect of being in love with someone that made every move of theirs seems so amusing, or that's just the way Miley is.

I began to picture her in a dress she made to look so beautiful as she turned around in the sea of people and meet my eyes. She would smile at me and...

No she wouldn't smile at me, she would remember of how I had hurt her. I shook the thought out of my mind and fixed my hair.

I turned around to face Olivia who was adjusting her dress. I took a small breath before walking closer to her. "Ready to go?"

I stepped on to the red colored carpet with Olivia following behind me. The bright flashes came into a better view as we walked further into the crowd.

Olivia gripped on my wrist and pulled herself next to me before giving me a small kiss on the cheek. I almost jumped away, but I remembered that we're in public and that's what our relationship is.

I managed to pull of a small smile before looking right into one of the cameras who began calling my name. I lift my hand into the air and waved, before I started to take a whole look of the ball.

Everyone looked a little too glamorous with their ankle length dresses and jewel heels, the men somehow wore all sorts of colorful tuxedos, mostly black and white. I looked down on my own suit before reminding myself that I'm not here to show off like everybody else.

My heart began to race when the thought of how I'm seeing Miley came rushing to my mind. I looked around again hoping I could spot her, which was no luck until my eyes stopped on a wavy haired girl with a back revealing dress.

I began to walk closer to her, but Olivia was pulling me back for a purpose I didn't understand. I looked at her who was tightening her grip around my arm. I looked at her, puzzled, but I soon realize that I should have put more effort in our acting.

I placed my arm around her waist and pulled her closer to me. I look for the wavy haired girl again but she wasn't where I have last saw her.

I began walking further into the crowd, maybe I should've called her earlier and check if she had arrived, but with Olivia clinging to me all the time I had no chance.

I felt a pair of eyes looking at me, I lift my head to see wavy hair descending the carpeted stairs, our eyes met and I smiled at her. Miley.

She didn't return my smile, instead she turned her gaze to Olivia who had just received a glass of champagne from a waiter. I could tell she was a little sad, but she quickly looked back to me before signaling me to follow her until she finally turned on her heel and walked into the bright lit gallery.

I turned to Olivia who was sipping her drink as I slipped her off my grip. She turned to me with her brows slightly furrowed. "I'm going to the bathroom," I told her.

She nodded and I walked away from her and began climbing the few stairs that led to the gallery. I looked around where statutes and paintings were gawked at and was placed under bright lights. The room looked like an endless hall, and everyone was going in and out.

I caught Miley who was looking behind her shoulder, her eyes looked more beautiful under the golden lights, but she quickly turned around and continued walking.

I followed her and bumped into a few people since I wasn't looking, my gaze was fixed on the back of Miley's head.

The amount of people had decreased, and I could see the end of Miley's dress, she was wearing black, but I hadn't see the front of what she was wearing.

Miley made a right turn as I continued to follow her, she walked through a door that seemed to led to a balcony, the dark night had made her loose her shadow and I could barely see her, but I could tell she had stopped walking and was holding on to the balcony railings.

I closed the door that separated the bright gallery to the outdoor balcony, and under the very low lights I could see Miley's lips curved into a smile.

"Hi,"

"Hey,"
