Forgotten Chapter Eleven, Part Two

"Miley, what are you talking about?" Nick said in a stern voice.

I took his hand and pulled him aside in another room. We both took a seat in two chairs that were facing each other. "Nick," I said. "When you left, life just when downhill. Demi moved out, and you wouldn't pick up your phone; I was pretty much isolated. And I you finally picked up your phone after a month or two, or at least I though you did. A girl picked up when I called, and then you didn't come during Thanksgiving or my birthday. You didn't even call me, text, or anything. And when you didn't show up, it hurt. What's worse is that you promised."

Nick sat there in silence.

"On Thanksgiving, I asked Liam if he wanted to come over, and he said yes. And when he came, we sat and had dinner or whatever. We talked, and he asked me if I thought I made the right decision picking you over him. I said yes. I don't think it was the answer he exactly wanted, but you know."

"But what does this have to do with being lied to?" He asked.

"I'm getting there." I said. I sighed and began to continue. "So, when he came over, he was wondering where you were at because he knew you were coming in for my birthday and all. And when I told him the whole story about how you didn't come…he said it's because you had another girlfriend."

"I don't know what to say."

"Is it true?"

"Well, not exactly. I went out with other girls, but nothing like us. It was just like two friends going out to lunch." He said.

"Well, Liam showed me a picture of you and your 'girlfriend', later to find out it was your cousin."

"Did you really believe him?"

"Nick, you don't understand. I didn't know what to believe, I was confused."

"I know you're confused. But, I'm confused about why you don't have any trust in me. Why would I ever cheat on my girlfriend?"

"Why wouldn't you? You cheated on Selena with me."

"But, that was different."

"Of course it is, Nick. It's always different when a new girl comes around. I've been through this before, Nick. And it's never different. Things never change, and people never change. I know you didn't cheat on me, and yes, I do trust you, but when I came out here, I didn't think we would be fighting." She said. She looked at him with teary eyes. "Nick, I think we should be friends, like we were. I think we've gotten used to it after fourteen years. Goodbye. "

"Miley, don't go. I don't want my best friend. I want my girlfriend."

"Well, you can't have her. It's always here, Nick. New York, where everything goes wrong. But this time, I am not coming back. Bye." She grabbed her things and charged out the door, but Nick caught up with her.

"Miley…"

"I said this was goodbye. This is it Nick. We need to find other people. There are other people out there who will love you more than I did."

"No there isn't Miley. I could've had any person I wanted, and I chose you."

I sighed and sat on the steps. "Look, I know you love me and all, but it's not about that. We're both in college, and after thinking about it, I don't think I'm ready to start a serious relationship. I thought college was the time you look for adventure. I know you care a lot about me, but it's time to let go. I want to explore the world before I settle down with someone. He walked back inside. I watch him go. I sat down on the steps and start to cry, realizing what I had just done to myself. I lost not only my boyfriend, but my best friend. This is the end.

But then I woke up. I looked over to see Nick lying beside me. I guess it was just a dream.

A/N: So that was the end! Yeah, not really what you expected, but oh well. I'm trying to start up one of my other series, so check that out. So, yeah. That's it. :)
