A Niley Story: Niley Reunion - Miam vs. Niley

Chapter 2: New York

Nick's POV

I woke up the next morning.  I'm supposed to be in the studio to create some new music with my friends and brothers.

I get out of bed and check my messages.  There's some from my friends and one from Miley.  I reply to my friends' first and then Miley's.

Miley:  Morning, bedhead (Yeah, I remember that).  What time are we going to meet tomorrow?  And where?  I'm going to have to tell my mom, but make her promise not to tell Liam or the press.

Me: Morning, Smiley Miley.  Is 9:30 good?  At the diner.  And bring a bodyguard.

Miley: Sure.  I sure miss Big Rob though.  He helped keep ours so secret up until the media found out and had a field day.

Me: He retired with the Jonas Brothers, Miley.  If you remember.  I have a new guy now.  I will bring him tomorrow.  Maybe he'll do a better job than Big Rob.

Although getting back together with Miley seems like a good idea, there's always the bad.  Like how the press and the "Niley" shippers will have a field day.  In our relationship, that's what happened.  It eventually caused stress between the two of us.  We had fights because we were stressed out and didn't want the press to find out.  And we broke up.  The love was destroyed.  Now it might be repeating, only we're adults now and can handle it better than before.

I get dressed, grab breakfast, and head to the studio.  My friends and brothers greet me.  First thing I hear from everyone was "How was the Grammy's?"

"It was good.  Um, just presented."

Kevin saw I wasn't telling everything.  "You sure, Nick?  I know a certain someone was there and I watched the show and you weren't there when she performed.  Did you leave the show or did you stay backstage?"

He caught me.  At least he's my brother and I can trust him to not to tell anyone to screw it up.  "You caught me, Kev.  I was backstage.  They had me be there at the Grammys and I wanted to talk to her all of a sudden after she performed.  We talked and we're meeting tomorrow."

Joe: "Dude, that's asking for disaster.  Remember what originally happened?  And she's with Liam.  Plus you know if the press and your 'Niley' shippers find out, they'll go crazy."

Me:  "Joe, we're mature.  We got bodyguards behind our back.  And you can't tell the press.  And the Liam thing is a publicity stunt."

My brothers' mouth dropped open.  Kevin slowly got his words together and said to me, "How do you know?  How long has this 'stunt' been going along?"

"I have known since Georgia.  I figured something fishy was up even if she wouldn't tell me.  She even admitted it to me yesterday."

Kevin practically exploded.  "But you wrote 'Wedding Bells'?!  And 'Remember I Told You'?!  Is there another meaning behind them?"

"Yes.  Besides the same thing along the lines of giving another try, it's actually a way of going along with the stunt.  She's not in love with him.  She doesn't love him.  She's faking it because the producers forced her and is controlling it."

Joe: "So that's another issue then.  If the producers find out, they'll be pissed."

"Which is probably something Miley wants right now.  She's an adult.  She can controll her own love life and it's just a screwed up idea to force the main stars of the show or movie to date to make money."

One of my friends spoke up.  "Do you want to do another duet with her?  Or is that too risky?"

"It might be, but I'll try.  It'll be in good timing anyways for this album.  I'm meeting her tomorrow for breakfast and I can ask her then."

Everyone pipes up.  "Good luck!". Depite the brotherly concern coming from Joe and Kevin, who spoke up "Just be careful."

"I know.  Thank you.  Now let's get to some music."  We all headed to the soundboard and instruments.

When we were all done, I headed back to the hotel room.

Miley's POV:

I stayed in my room this morning.  I texted Nick to make sure we were on for tomorrow.

My mom pokes her head into my room.  "Miley, are you ok?  You stayed in here for a while.  Is this about meeting Nick yesterday?"

"No.  Just tired.  But since you brought him up, I miss him.  I want to be with him.  I hate that my love life has to be controlled and I have to date Liam, another control freak."

"I know, baby.  It's tough."

"I'm meeting Nick tomorrow.  We're going to catch up and hopefully old feelings arrive.  I want to ditch Liam.  I don't care if the producers will be pissed off or not."

"Ok, baby.  Just be careful."

"I know.  Thank you, Mommy."

She smiled and walked out of my room.  I see a call from Demi, who's also still friends with Nick.  It's weird how last year he said that we ran in different circles but really we still somewhat run in the same circle.  We have the press, talk shows, award shows, and Demi.  I answered the call from Demi.  "Hey, Miley.  OMG.  I saw the Grammys.  Plus Nick texted me this morning.  You met up and didn't tell me?"

I laughed.  "It's just been one morning.  And yesterday was crazy.  It was great meeting up with him.  We are actually going to meet tomorrow."

"That's so great.  Just be careful, Smilers."

"I will.  Now I got to go, Demerz.  I will see you soon."  I hang up and head out with my mom to the Elton John tribute.

Liam's POV:

I dislike the fact that she wants to tell people that the whole relationship is a fake.  And now that she might have reunited with her ex-boyfriend and true love of her life last night at the Grammys, she might end it with me and go back to Nick Jonas.  Man, the producers are going to be mad.  At me for screwing things up and her for running to her ex.

But then again, I didn't want this relationship either.  I understand where she is coming from, but I really don't have anyone to fall back to except friends and family.  I don't know who I'm going to date.  All I know is I want to fight Nick to see who gets Miley.

I grabbed my phone and text Miley.

Me: What is Nick's phone number?

Miley takes a long time to reply.  She must be at the rehearsals or the Elton John Tribute already.  She replies back with Why?  Why do you want to talk to my ex-boyfriend?

Me: I just want to talk to him.  Get to know him.  Just please give me the number.

She texted me Fine and gave me the number.  I called him and he picked up.  "Hello?  Who is this?"

"Hello, Nick.  I'm Liam Hemsworth, Miley's so called fiancé."

"Um, hi, Liam.  How'd you get my number?"

"Miley.  Listen, I want to tell you to back off."

"You're the one with a fake engagement.  Why don't you?"

"I'm scared ok?  I don't really have anyone to back off to except for friends and family."

"So you do have people to fall back to."

"Listen.  Do you want to fight or not, Jonas?"

"I don't.  Because I'm a gentleman and gentlemen don't fight.  But we'll do it this way.  We'll let Miley decide naturally who she wants to be with.  Whoever the winner is gets to be with her.  Whoever is the loser leaves her alone."

He sucks me into it.  "Deal."

"Ok.  So drop my number and don't call me again.  Bye, Hemsworth."

"Bye, Jonas."  I hang up.
