Lily's POV

Friday Night

(Outside it is storming badly. Lily and Miley are in Lily's living room. Lily is standing in front of the window watching the rain crash down. Miley is sitting on the couch reading an old issue of Cosmo with the occasional glare back to lily.)

"Why did it have to pre hurricane now? Like the now, an hour before Jake's party?,Why couldn't it be like when we were already drunk?" I said while pressing my forehead against the window.

"I know", she said while reading her Cosmo mag, but I knew she had something else to add on,

"Now instead of puking on me, you'll be forced to spend sober time with me." She closes the magazine and laughs.

I turn to defend myself. "That was one…two times and I remember a certain person not exactly making it to the bathroom and or peeing on my lawn more than once."

"That was freshman summer! Puke a roo." she looks at me with that huge smile that just makes me smile. I look back out at the rain, like my staring will make it go away.

"What do you want to do?" I ask.

"Listen to you talk about Mikayla for hours." She says with sarcasm.

I have to laugh at that. "Jealous?"

She just looks at me and asks, "Where is Mikayla anyway?" That was weird.

I shake it off. "I don't know, I, I think she's still home." I said while checking my phone. Was Miley jealous? Of what?

"She hasn't called you? That's weird. She usually calls you..." My phone vibrates on the coffee table "…right now" she finishes the sentence with a bit of anger as he gets up and goes to the kitchen.

I pick it up, the outside reading -Boo-Bear 3-

"Hey, what's up?"

"Unfortunately nothing, considering the outside conditions. Now, what am I going to do? Play scrabble with my mom? Freakin rain. Now I have to be all alone…in my room…in my bed…."

" Well I hope so considering I'm not there" She laughs and my heart feels good.

(Miley walks back in without Lily noticing, and sits back on the couch, ease-dropping)

"Believe me I wish I was there right now, tonight's gonna suck so much ass without you. Especially when I was supposed to sleep over your house tonight...." I play the same game"…in your room…in your bed..."

(Miley rolls her eyes and looks sad and uncomfortable)

Mikayla laughs again. I smile. "Well aren't you with Miley?" I turn around and notice Miley and she give's me the "I am here, and can't go anywhere, deal with it wave"

"Yeah" I turn back to the window. (Miley tries to turn on the TV only to find the power's out. In complete frustration, throws her head back and covers her face with a pillow)

"Lucky, hey, is your power working? I walk over to the television and try to turn it on a couple times before replying ( Miley looks at Lily trying to turn on the TV and covers her face with the pillow again.

"No, I guess you'll be playing scrabble with Bella by candle light" She always finds it weird when I call her mom by her first name, which fully is Isabella, but she always tells me to call her Bella.

"You're just jealous." I laugh at this.

"Yep, you figured me out, I want to play romantic scrabble with your mom"

"I knew it!" we laugh, followed by silence "Well I let you enjoy you're romantic candlelight time with my number one fan" she states with the complete sarcasm. Inside I wanted to talk to her until I could see her in person but, knew I hadn't spent anytime with Miles lately slash a while.

"It's going to be soo romantic. Like you won't even believe."

"Better not be, my little schmoo bucket" I can't help but roll my eyes and smile inside and out..

"I won't my little boo boo bear, I'll save all my romantics for you my love"

(Miley rolls her eyes)

"Aww, Baby, stop it,….. but not really." We laugh.

"Alright babe, I'll talk to you later"

"I love you"

"I love you too."

"Night Baby"

"Night"

I hang up the phone and turn to Miley, who looks like she would rather be somewhere else. And I really can't say I blame her.

"Hey sorry about that", silence "she's a talker" my bad attempt to joke around.

She stares at the ground, with disappointment, and it hurts. We used to just do anything and being happy just being with each other and now its like we were both injected with the awkward shot.

Silence, "Miley?"

She lifts her glare slowly from the ground and looks at me.

"Do you remember when you told me you were dating Mikayla? I just give her a look like -….Um….not really"

But I remember even though I would rather not.

Chap 2

FLASHBACK: (still Lily POV)

Summer, Week Before Senior Year. Party at Brad Stevens. Miley's former boyfriend, who was huge, as in 100% muscle with spikey black hair, some Chinese symbol on his arm, popped collars, and ended every sentence with Dude or Yo. I freakin hated him. And like everytime he'd see me he'd ask me what my name was and everytime I give him the "WTF" face "I know you know my name douchebag" then reply courteously with "Lily" sometimes I thought of making Brad so he would remember it but I never did. He did call Miley Kyle once, and he wasn't drunk or anything, it was pretty dam funny.

His house is packed with most of our senior class, some kids from other schools, and the kids who bought the booze. Red cups laid every where, crappy techno was blasting, killing my mood even more, which made me drink even more now that Mik left. I looked across the room and Miley was on Brad's lap, he was shoving his tongue down Miley's throat and I stood there watching them and it killed me for some reason.

I had been dating Mikayla for three months and hadn't told Miley and I felt like I had done something wrong and the guilt was killing me. Mikayla had been hounding me to tell her. Hell even my parents knew I was dating her.

When Mikayla had to leave, I waited with her outside, while her brother was on the way. And I knew she was going to bring it up.

" Lil, she loves you, and the longer you don't tell her , will equal how much she'll start to love you less"

"I know, it's just" Her brother pulls up.

She acts like she doesn't see him, and stares deep into my eyes and says,

"Lily, I want to love you so bad, but….. " She plays with the bottom of her skirt.

"But?" I said with some anger/confusion.

"Miley is a piece of you….and I can't just love sixty, seventy, eighty percent of you. I want every square inch." I think she smiles to reassure me she does love me but, I can't help but look down.

She puts her arms around my neck. I look into he beautiful eyes.

HONK HONK- She looks over her shoulder quickly than back to me.

"I love you." Then she places the sweetest of kisses upon my lips.

"I love you too" HONK HONK- she grabs my hand than turns to get into the car. She opens the door and looks back at me.

"Be careful please, I only have one of you"

"Thanks Mom, I will." She laughs and gets into the car. I wave as she drives off, then put my hands deep into my pockets, my smile fades, and walk back to the house.

The ting tings "Great DJ" blares through the house. I get my hands on two Coors Light. I drank them pretty quickly while watching Oliver playing Beer Pong, which he was pretty bad at. He loses and comes over to me, not before hitting into four different people.

"Lil" he throws his arm over my shoulder and leans on me.

"Olly Wolly, Feelin good?"

"Yo, yeah, yo." He leans into me like he's going to tell me a secret and says,

"yo, where's Mizz Secret Hotae Pants?" said with a huge grin

"Miss secret Hoty pants went home." He does a little pouty face and offers me another beer.

"Lil, you're my like" takes a sip of my beer, "yo, like, I've known you forever, ye know, yo?"

I finish the can. "yeah olly, I know" emotional drunks

He takes his arm off of me, looks me dead in the eyes and says

"Willy Truscott, you like want to do zome shotz?"

The next two hours felt like some bad lifetime movie montage. All I remembered was taking way too many shots, bumpin and grindin with way too many people, dancing on a coffee table? And I sort of remember talking to some really popular girl and telling her that she isn't that bitchy in person? But now I sit on the couch drinking a beer with Oliver and some chick making out next to me.

I got up and walked around. The party had really cooled down and now only like ten people were here just lingering. Miley comes down from the stairs. Great, I guess the mouth wash upstairs wash out. That was low, maybe they were cuddling? Yeah, okay, right. She sees me and smiles, says goodbye to some people leaving, and walks over to me and hugs me. She releases me and goes to speak but I cut her off.

"I'm dating Mikayla." I say pretty stairght I still drunk?

"Yeah, and I'm Hannah Montana. You alright Lil? "

Without my response, she brings me upstairs to Brad's parent's room and leads me onto the large balcony. She gives me a bottle of water, I take a sip and look at Brad's massive back yard. I turn back to her but look down at my own feet.

"Miles, I like love you, you're my best friend and I, I " She looks confused and puts her hand on mine. I look up.

"Lil, what's up? Are you alright?" You know when someone asks you if you're okay over and over again until you're not fine but instead pissed off for them asking. That's me at this second.

"MILES! I am dating Mikayla!" I calm down. I look into the distance "I've been dating her for the past three months. And…..I'm sorry…..(I look at her)…for not telling you."

She looks so hurt, it makes me feel like shit. Silence.

She starts walking inside but turns around and looks out into the yard. And says in a quite shakey voice.

"When I started dating Brad,…I couldn't wait to run over to your house and tell you…and when I got to your house….. Mikayla's car was there and I thought to myself "That's Weird?" but I thought if anything had happen between you two that you would've either A. call me and told me everything or B. (she smiles), or B. had a heart attack" I force a hopeful smile. " I guess…." She's cut off by Brad.

"Babe, what are you do…." He sees me and gives me a head nod because remembering the name Lily is very difficult. I give a wave and the moment becomes officially awkward. But being Brad, he continues without noticing Miley is in no mood for anyone.

"Yo, I'm like making pizza bagels and like wanted to know if my little sugar bowl would want some." Miley takes his hands in hers and tries to sweetly say in a calm voice.

"Brad baby, thank you for the offer, I really appreciate you coming up here and offering me pizza bagels" Brad all of a sudden become a bashful child and puts a silly grin on his face. " but me and Lily need to talk."

"Yo. Okay, babe" brad says and they kiss. Ugh straight people. But wait here's the grand slam event of the night. Brad turns to me with his doof grin and says.

"Where's Mikayla? In that moment I see Miley's face turn to betrayl and her eyes to disappointment, surround with tears. She walks fastly back inside and Brad runs after her, " Babe, What did I? Babe?" I want to run after her but my legs feel like concrete so I just stand there like a statue.

I basically cry on the balcony for an hour until Oliver finds me and hugs me and tells me everything's going to be okay. I don't really believe him at the time but choose to fake it.

"Oliver, can you walk me home?"

"Lil, it's three in the morning. Why don't we just.." I cut him off.

"Stay?"

"Yeah, but like Brad and Miley aren't going to come down stairs any time soon and the couch is very comfortable." I sicken at the thought of Miley and Brad doing anything.

"I just want to leave."

"I know you do Lil. Look we'll leave at seven. (He searches my face for a response) Sound good? We'll hit up a dinner or something? My treat?" He ends with a smile.

"Seven on the dot?"

He jokes," Maybe a couple seconds before seven so we get a head start?" I smile.

" I love you Oliver,…….. in a non straight way." I say while I go to hug him. He laughs and we hug.

"Love you too Lil"

We slept on the couch. Forcefully woke up at 6:59. Went to the dinner and ate. Then he dropped me home. Miley didn't pick up any of my calls, return any of my texts, reply to my Facebook messages, or answer the door to her house for two weeks.

End of flashback

Miley stands in front of me.

"Lily" She pauses advancing closer

"I'm in love with you."

She kisses me.

Lightning fills the room and thunder sounds around us. Silence soon disappears into the sound of rain. And within the sound, everything had changed.
