"One pair of candy lips and your bubblegum tongue…" She swayed to the music while zipping the last bag close. After putting the suitcase on the floor, she fell onto her bed exhausted and let out a sigh. The school year was over; it was time to go home. Usually, she'd be happy with going home, but she heard that her dear sister got a boyfriend. She hated that. Because then Alex would brag about him for the whole summer. Alex – or also Alexandra, but only when someone was angry – loved bragging to no end. And since Miley was single she'd only feel much worse than she originally felt about being single.

Demi – best friend for about 16 years – supported Miley with being single. They pledged to not date until they were 21. Well, this summer, Miley would turn 21, but that was beside the point. The point was that since Demi would be coming home too, they would either fight with Alex the whole time to the point where she just breaks up with SuperBoy or they would feel bad for the whole summer. Pledging to not date doesn't mean you don't want to. At least in the best friends' mind.

Another agonizing part about going home was packing. Just because Miley was done with her clothes, didn't mean she was anywhere near done with the rest. If only, she thought as she got up, if only I wouldn't be such a nerd. Only one look in her room and everybody automatically called her a nerd. Not in the bad way – if that was even possible – just in a surprised way. You would never assume Miley was a nerd. She didn't act like one and her grades weren't that great. Yeah, she had her A's here and there, but she also had her B's and C's, making her like the rest of the college.

But her room… That was something different. You see, almost every teenage girl has her fair share of posters on her walls. Whoever they adore would be seen somewhere around the room, most likely on the walls. The only problem with Miley was that you couldn't even see her walls anymore. Not because of the many posters she had up on them, but because of the books, she collected. She wouldn't call it collecting though. She'd buy every book she'd see and was interested in. Then she'd read it. But after she read it, it would never be acknowledged anymore.

That's why her room was stuffed with books and why people liked to call her 'nerd' in a playful manner. She wasn't hurt when they called her that. She called herself a nerd. She always laughed about it and she was pretty proud of her 'book collection'… until now. Now she regretted it because she had no clue how she could not only pack all those books and transport them but also she had no idea where she would put them once she was back at home.

"My body is a wonderland… My body is a wonderland; you'll use your hands… My body is a wonderland…" She sang along to the song as she opened the first box for her books. That was until she heard a chuckled behind her. She turned around a little shocked and surprised, only to find her best friend standing there with her arms crossed.

"Aren't you a little full of yourself? Your body is a wonderland? I mean, I'm just saying but…" Miley rolled her eyes as she threw a pillow at Demi. Demi dodged it and walked over to Miley's bed. She sighed and lay back. Miley looked at Demi confused.

"What are you doing here?" Demi sat up and pouted playfully.

"What, you don't want me here anymore?" Miley rolled her eyes once again. She plopped down next to Demi.

"I do, but I mean, shouldn't you be packing or something?" Demi laughed.

"Well, not really. Because unlike you, I'm not obsessed with reading so I don't have millions of books to pack or worry about." Miley glared at Demi.

"Well, unlike you I read." Demi gasped playfully and nudged Miley.

"You know I read. But you read like… a lot. I mean, you bought a booklet about a castle in England because… why?" Miley blushed a little before she shrugged.

"Well, you know this one date I had before our little pledge? Yeah, well… I wanted to impress John. He is from England and told me all about those awesome castles there. And then he got me curious so I bought this booklet and the next time I saw him I told him all about this one castle. He was so excited about it that he asked me out again, but then we already pledged and I had to bail out." Demi looked at Miley with big eyes.

"You put that much effort into that guy even though you knew that you weren't going to see him again?" Miley shrugged.

"Well, technically I see him every day, just not over dinner." Demi rolled her eyes.

"Dude, should've told me. We could've cancelled this pledge. I mean, I might have kissed a boy or another…" Miley smiled.

"I know. But I love to tell boys that I can't date them because I pledged I wouldn't until I was 21. They all get so weird then. Like, you know, they say stuff like 'are you for real?' or 'aren't you 21 already?'. Stuff like that. Flattering stuff. That's why I love our pledge." Demi looked at Miley confused.

"You love to tell people that? You don't mention my name, do you?" Miley shrugged.

"Might have, I don't remember. Don't worry, they don't think it's weird. They kind of like it." Demi rolled her eyes.

"They don't like it. They think it's ridiculous! Why would they tell you that they think you're stupid for doing this?" Miley was quiet for a minute so Demi nodded.

"Exactly. Now get back to packing. Our plane leaves tomorrow and I don't think you'll finish when you keep up this pace." Miley sighed and got up from her bed. Demi watched her as she slowly put one book after the other in the box. After ten minutes Miley had twenty books in the box. That did it and Demi got up and helped her.

"I can't watch you act like you're old and need help." Miley looked at Demi confused. She didn't act like she was old or needed help. She only tried to put the books in the box carefully. And that's what she told Demi, but Demi only scoffed and threw the books into the box.

"Please, you won't read half of those books again anyway, why make an effort and act like you care about them?" Miley sighed and agreed with Demi. Together they packed all the books, though they didn't care anymore. They just threw them in the boxes. After three hours – without the breaks – they finished packing. Demi fell onto Miley's bed and didn't move a muscle.

"I'm dead." Miley chuckled and fell onto her bed herself, next to Demi.

"I know; me too." Demi groaned.

"How can anyone read so many books anyway? I mean, why?" Miley shrugged.

"I don't know. I liked them at the time being. Now it's just… whatever." Miley turned her head to look at the clock on the wall.

"Wow, look at the time, Demi you have to go to your room, we'll leave tomorrow." Demi didn't respond. Miley looked at Demi to find her eyes closed and her mouth slightly opened. She sighed and nudged Demi slightly.

"Demi, come on. This is my bed!" Demi groaned and squirmed a bit.

"No, I'm dead. Get to me when I'm alive again." Miley rolled her eyes and sat on top of Demi. Demi started squirming a lot more, trying to get Miley off her, but Miley didn't budge.

"See, that's what you get for staying in MY bed." Demi glared at nothing in particular, she just glared.

"Well, that's what you get for making me pack your books. That's what you get for actually owning so many books." Miley sighed and got off Demi. Demi jumped up and ran to the door. She smiled and at Miley.

"Night Miles, you know, bright and early tomorrow…" Miley nodded.

"Yeah, Dems, I know." Demi left Miley's room, skipping and whistling. Miley shook her head amused.

"She'll be the death of me, I just know it." Just as Miley wanted to close the door, she could hear Demi scream something.

"Talking to yourself is the first sign of craziness!" Miley rolled her eyes and shut the door. When today was exhausting, how was the following day going to be? She would have to fly from New York to Los Angeles, which was exhausting enough as it is, but seeing her mother and sister for the first time in a year would kill her. She didn't visit them on Christmas or New Years because Demi made her stay with her. Demi's parents moved to Texas when Demi was fifteen so the best friends hadn't spend a holiday together ever since. And Demi made Miley spend the last ones at her parents' house because she 'missed her over Christmas'.

Though Miley's mother wasn't angry with Miley, she was still upset and she let Miley know that she was. So seeing her and Alex again would kind of be a train wreck. Only worse. And Alex had a boyfriend too, so things got even worse.

Sighing, Miley changed and climbed into her bed for the last time this year. She closed her eyes and hugged her pillow close. It took her some time before she fell asleep. She would miss this place, but she was excited to finally go home and relax a bit. The only thing she wasn't looking forward to was Alex and her new boyfriend, but she would survive this.

"Good morning sunshine, rise and shine!" Miley groaned and buried her head in her pillows. Nothing was worse than waking up to your best friend's voice in your ear. Well, there were worse things, but this counted to one of the worst.

"No, it's too early to be alive yet." Demi shook her head and hit Miley with a pillow. Miley just rolled around and hid herself under the blankets.

"We're going home, so it's not too early to be alive yet. At least show me that you're happy." Miley sighed.

"It's also too early to show any kind of emotion." Demi rolled her eyes and sat on top of Miley.

"Ow!" Demi giggled.

"Sorry, but I think that was some emotion." Miley glared at Demi.

"Yeah, that hurt!" Demi grinned mischievously.

"And it will hurt a lot more when you don't get up now. You know I don't get you Miles. You should be excited to go home!" Miley pushed Demi off her, making her fall onto the floor and rubbed her head.

"I am… kind of. But like I told you before, Alex has a boyfriend." Demi glared at Miley as she got up.

"That hurt." Miley smiled innocently.

"Oh well, revenge is sweet, isn't it?" Demi shrugged and sat on the floor, watching Miley walk into the bathroom.

"So you said Alex has a boyfriend, so what?" Miley sighed as she brushed her teeth. She talked while having the toothbrush in her mouth, making it pretty hard for Demi to understand.

"So what? She'll rub it in our faces like… something to rub in our faces." She spit out the used toothpaste and rinsed her mouth.

"And then she'll make fun of us because of our pledge which will be called off this summer anyway because I'll turn 21 soon enough." Demi shrugged and saw that Miley walked out of the bathroom. She also saw that Miley didn't change and that she already sipped the last bag close.

"Aren't you going to change?" Miley shook her head.

"Nope. I'm travelling in this. Just imagine… we're going to be on a plane for a long time! I'll just put on my UGGs and that's it." Demi nodded. She looked down at herself.

"You're right. But I'm not going to change now. I'm ready, are you?" Miley nodded and grabbed all her bags, which was pretty difficult. Then she stared at her boxes.

"Crap." Demi was about to walk out when she heard Miley curse. She turned back around to see her struggling with her bags and suitcases, but she laughed when she saw all the boxes.

"What?" Miley sighed.

"How am I going to get all of these in the cab?" Demi laughed even louder and walked over to Miley. She grabbed some suitcases and a box and walked out of the room.

"We'll just get a second one and now get to work; this might take some time to get out of the room." Miley sighed and grabbed two boxes. She wasn't sure how she managed to do that, but she got out of the room safely and that's what's important. Well, she did trip at the staircase, but she didn't fall down the stairs.

It took them twenty five minutes to drag all the boxes down. Thankfully, Demi did call a second cab and all the boxes could be put into that one while all the other bags and suitcases were in the cab with Miley and Demi. But before they got into the cab they went back to their dorm.

Miley sighed as she opened the door one last time.

"I'll miss you dorm." Demi giggled.

"I'll miss you too, dork." Demi squeaked, trying to sound like someone else, though Miley knew that it was Demi. Miley sighed and bit her bottom lip. She liked it in college. Some good memories were made here. Yeah, she'd get back to college after summer, but she would have to move into another dorm, which made it kind of sad to her.

"But you're right, I'll miss it here too." Demi and Miley sighed and looked around one last time. Then they looked at each other and grinned.

"HOLIDAY'S!!!" And with that they ran out the door and jumped into the cab.

"Wow, this flight's been way too long for me." Demi put her head onto Miley's shoulder as they got into a cab in LA. Miley sighed and wiped her forehead. It was hotter in LA than in New York.

"Talk for yourself. I couldn't sleep because someone thought it was funny to throw little gummy bears at me." Demi grinned sheepishly.

"Yeah, well, it looked funnier in my head. Even though your annoyed face was pretty hilarious…" Miley glared at Demi.

"Well, try sleeping on a plane with someone like you next to you. It gets annoying to the point where you're not even annoyed anymore." Demi chuckled and looked out the window.

"Ooh, lookie, the Hollywood sign!" Miley rolled her eyes.

"Doofus, it's been here ever since you lived here. You've seen it plenty of times. What's so special about it now?" Demi shrugged and kept admiring the big letters. Miley just stared out the window. She tried getting ready to see her mother again after a year. Try that when you know that you're Mom's clingy like hers. And even if she wouldn't admit it, Miley loved her mother to death, just like she did with Miley.

Would they cry when they saw each other? Or just a quick hug and then leave as quickly as possible? Whatever would happen, she knew that at least her mother would squeeze her until Miley would suffocate. At that thought, Miley giggled quietly.

"What's so funny?" Miley shrugged and giggled again.

"I just thought about my mother. She'll squeeze me to death when we arrive." Demi giggled herself.

"You're right. I hope she won't recognize me and think I'm some weird college chick that you met and just wanted to bring here." Miley rolled her eyes.

"There are a lot of things that make that impossible. One, my mother knows that you're coming. Two, she'd recognize you in a crowd of millions of people and you ARE a weird college chick that I just wanted to bring her. Except my mother already knows you." Demi laughed.

"Okay, you're right. Darn! She'll hug me to death with you!" They laughed together. Demi looked out the window again.

"Ooh, almost there. See, there's Jefferson's house. Aw, they have a little dog now? We have to go play with him!" Miley laughed.

"It's the Johnson's and the dog's a she." Demi giggled and shrugged.

"Then we'll play with her, whatever. Is that little Timmy? He grew up. Dang, if I were in High School, I'd tap that." Miley rolled her eyes.

"That's Tommy and he's only in Middle School." Demi looked irritated.

"Why's he growing a mustache?" Miley sighed.

"It's chocolate, Demi." Demi looked back at the boy who was eating a chocolate bar.

"Oh. Well, isn't that Sammy and… is that her boyfriend? Isn't he a little too young for her? I mean, isn't she in High School…?" Miley suppressed a laugh at Demi's mess ups.

"That's Tammy and that's her little brother. And she is in High School… as a teacher." Demi groaned and hit her head on the window. After she did that, she rubbed her head.

"Ow… I haven't been her for too long. Bring me here more often!" Miley laughed and nodded.

"Will do." Suddenly Miley's house came into view and Miley gulped big time. She wasn't prepared! She didn't know what to say to her mom! What if her mother was actually mad at Miley for not coming over Christmas and New Years?

You see, Miley always had a problem with that. She had to have everything planned or she'd be lost. And seeing her house made her realize that she wasn't prepared this time. She grabbed Demi's arm and held it tightly.

"Ow, Miles don't break my arm! What is it?" Miley looked out the window panicked. They were already in front of her house.

"We're here! Oh no! What will I say to them? Demi, I wasn't here for Christmas, Mom will kill me! What should I do?" Demi gently removed Miley's hands from her arm and rubbed it.

"I don't know! But probably not break my arm!" Miley rolled her eyes and started shaking when Demi opened the car door. She hesitantly got out of the car. Demi got out all of their bags and Miley's boxes which were once again in another cab. She paid the driver and the cabs drove off. They were left in the driveway with their boxes and a shaking Miley.

"Come on, you are just anxious to see your mother again." Miley nodded and turned around to grab one of her bags when she heard a sarcastic chuckle.

"Whoa, Miles, you could also read all that stuff in the library or the net, no need to waste money." Miley turned around and was met with her sisters' smirk. But Miley could see that Alex was also happy to see her.

"Alex!" Miley ran up to Alex and hugged her tightly. Alex hugged her back and giggled. She looked at Demi and hugged her too.

"Demi! Long time no see!" Demi nodded and hugged Alex back as well.

"I know. But thanks to crazy girl over there I'm back here. It's good to be back." Alex nodded and looked at Miley. She was shaking once again.

"Gosh, what's wrong?" Miley took a shaky breath and turned to Alex.

"Is Mom mad at me for not coming home over Christmas?" Alex rolled her eyes and chuckled.

"Mad? No. Sad? Kind of. She's just happy you came home now." Miley nodded and gulped.

"Where is Mom?" Once again, Miley's back was turned to the door so she could finally grab one of her bags when she heard a sniffle behind her.

"Right here, honey." Miley's eyes watered immediately and she turned around, running into her mother's waiting arms. Okay, so she missed her mother a lot, what a crime…

"Mommy…" Okay, she was a mother's girl, what did you expect? Trish, her mother, chuckled and kissed her daughter's hair.

"Oh Miley, Smiley Miley… we missed you here, right Alex?" Alex nodded and grinned.

"You bet we did. It was so boring…" Demi giggled. When Trish heard the familiar giggled she slowly pulled back from Miley and looked at Demi astonished.

"Is this really little Demetria? That can't be you…" Demi blushed and shrugged.

"Yeah, it's me, I guess I-" But she was cut off with Trish hugging her tightly. Miley laughed at Demi's face and wiped her tears away. Demi's face contorted in pain, but she still patted Trish's back.

"It's been way too long, girl. Where've you been?" Demi pulled back from Trish's death grip and took a deep breath, then she smiled and shrugged.

"Oh, you know, here and there, everywhere… and college." They all laughed. Together they brought in all the boxes and bags. It took them half an hour because Miley's room was on the second floor which included a lot of stairs.

"Geez, Miley, why so many books?" Even Trish thought Miley exaggerated a bit. Miley blushed.

"Uhm… you know, when I like it I buy it." Alex raised an eyebrow.

"So you're saying that when you like a boy you pay him to go out with you?" Miley blushed even more and shook her head furiously.

"No! I meant the books and only the books!" They all nodded as if they believe Miley which made Miley throw a pillow at them. They finished carrying in all the stuff and were now in Miley's room.

"Well, Lexi, where's that boy of yours?" Alex grinned and shrugged.

"I don't really know. Why?" Miley shrugged.

"I don't know either, because I want to meet that guy…?" Alex laughed.

"So you could steal him from me?" Miley shook her head.

"No, so I can put him to place, tell him not to hurt you and stuff. I know that's what your older brother was supposed to do, but we don't have an older brother so the sister will do." Alex laughed.

"How long has he been your boyfriend anyway?" Alex shrugged.

"I don't know. All I know is that we're not really that exclusive. He's like 'I'm too young to be dating someone seriously and maybe I'll meet the love of my life today and then you'd be holding me back because I was exclusively dating you'. So we're not exclusive." Alex shrugged again while Miley's and Demi's mouths were wide open.

"Dude, that sounds like a douche!" Alex shrugged once again.

"Oh well, it's not like I really care. He's hot and he's right. I mean, maybe he's not Mr. Right. Maybe I'll meet Mr. Right in a bar and I won't be able to get with him because of Nick. So I don't really want to be exclusive with him. And we have an open un-exclusive relationship which means that I can see other people too, just like he can." To Miley and Demi this seemed ridiculous, but they didn't say that.

"So his name is Nick?" Alex nodded.

"Yeah and his really cute. You'd like him Miley. Maybe you'll be the love of his life?" Alex joked. Miley shook her head.

"Never. He's still your boyfriend. That would break some kind of codex, wouldn't it?" Alex shrugged.

"Oh, whatever. As long as we're not exclusive, you're free to do with him whatever you want." Demi and Miley looked at each other.

"Well, at least after my birthday."

"Why?" Miley blushed.

"Well, Demi and I pledged to not date until one of us turned 21. I'm first so until then we won't date." Alex rolled her eyes.

"Oh please, only you two could come up with something like that. That's so stupid!" Demi shrugged.

"Well, being with a guy but actually not being with him while you're saying you are with him is stupid too!" Alex rolled her eyes.

"He's just my boyfriend so I can say he is. It's not about love or anything. It feels nice saying, 'oh that's my boyfriend', you know? But you have to say 'Oh, I'm not dating because I pledged not to'. That's kind of lame." Miley sighed.

"Lex, let's not fight alright? We're all three really stupid… hey, where'd Mom go?" Alex giggled.

"Probably to call her boyfriend…" Miley gasped.

"Mom has a boyfriend?! Since when?" Alex laughed.

"I do not have a boyfriend! He is my boss Alexandra." Alex immediately stopped laughing. If she got called Alexandra it was serious.

"Sorry, Mother! I know!" Miley and Demi burst out laughing.

"Oh well, at least… oh, I don't know." Alex walked out of Miley's room. Together, Miley and Demi kept laughing until dinner, which was served at around seven. They were a bit jet-legged so they went to sleep early.

Miley had a big smile on her face. Her bed felt comfy and familiar, nothing like the one in college. She loved being back home and she loved her family. And Alex wasn't too bad about her new boyfriend either. So everything was fine. And everything would be awesome that summer. Nothing could ruin Miley's mood.

But the thing is, there was something that could. A change of mind and a small mistake would lead to drama that would shake up Miley's life for good. She would have to go through hurt, pain, heartbreak and fighting. A long journey for the young girl. But right then, in that bed, she still felt as though nothing would happen. And it wouldn't for a while. Nothing bad at least. But let's safe that fun for later, shall we?

This is it, first chapter of my new story My Sister's Boyfriend. It's pretty boring, I guess, but it will get interesting in the next chapter. I've already planned the whole story, so be prepared for faster updates. I really hope you liked it and maybe leave a review to let me know if you did *hint hint*
