A/N: I just got back from Quebec. It was so beautiful there but it was really cold. I was in Quebec to visit some family that live there. My family in Quebec live like two minutes away from an ice rink so we were there a lot. It sucked for me though because I couldn't exactly ice skate do to my injury but I still had fun. I don't really know how I got the idea for this story but I do know I thought of it when I was in Quebec. I am hoping it turns out good and I hope you like it!
Lilly's POV
It was a cold winter in Malibu. There was a light, white blanket of snow that replaced the warm sand beneath my feet. It was early in the morning and I was curled up with a thick blanket and layers of warm clothes. I was just sitting in the middle of the beach watching the snow fall from the sky. I had been sitting for who knows how long, and I was now starting to feel the cold creeping through my first layer of clothes. I could hear children in the distance laughing and having fun playing in the snow. I remember when I was younger, the first thing I would ever do when it snowed was make a snow angel right in the middle of our driveway for everyone to see. I laughed at the memory. I was just about to get up and walk home, when I felt someone fall into the snow beside me. I turned my head and was greeted by a dark haired boy staring out in the distance.
"Hi," I whispered. I had no idea what he was doing here at this time. Heck, I don't know what I was doing here at this time.
"Hey," Oliver whispered back. After a moment of awkward silence I asked him what he was doing here.
"Better question is what are you doing here? You look like your cold." He responded eyeballing me.
"I just came here to think." I responded truthfully pulling my eyes away from him.
"About me?" Oliver smirked.
"No!" I said a little too quickly. I turned my head away from Oliver so I couldn't see his smirk and he couldn't see my blush. "I'm just thinking about Miley's offer in bringing us with her and her family when they go to their Aunt Shannon's house for winter break."
"You are coming right?" Oliver asked shifting his body closer to me.
"Maybe" I responded. I started to draw random squiggly lines in the snow around me.
"Please come. I am not going without you." Oliver said watching me doodle.
"Why not?"
"Because it won't be as much fun without you there with me" he said making me smile. I stopped playing with the snow and looked Oliver in the eyes.
"You will have Miley there with you."
"She's not my best friend, you are. And no offence to her but she is not nearly as fun as you."
"I don't know, I mean it's all the way in Minnesota and we will be there for a whole week, not including the long drive there. It will take like five days to drive there."
"Please, for me." Oliver pleaded.
"well…"
"Please." Oliver tried again. I caved in.
"Fine, I will go. But you owe me."
"Yay, Thank you!"
I laughed and Oliver and I fell into a comfortable silence. We continued to watch the white snowflakes fall from the sky. By this time, the cold had seeped through each layer of clothes and I was now freezing. I tried to picture myself on this very beach during the summer time. With the hot sun shining down on my sunscreen cover body, tanning in my favourite yellow bikini with Miley beside me blasting her music and annoying other people around us. But nothing worked. I tightened my grip on my blanket as my teeth started to chatter.
"Are you cold?" Oliver asked.
"Yeah, I've been here for quite some time." Oliver placed his arm around my shoulder and pulled me closer to him. I laid my head on his chest and let out a deep sigh. I felt ten times warmer in Oliver's arms. This was normal behaviour for us. Some people, including Miley, think it's weird for two best friends to be so close to each other but we've learned to ignore them.
"Is this better?" Oliver whispered into my hair.
I smiled into his chest. "Much better."
Please read my authors note…I need the people who live in the USA answer some questions.
A/N: I don't know why I chose Minnesota. I have seen pictures of it and it is really beautiful. I have also been told that it gets cold there. I was trying to choose a place in the US where the temperature drops. I live in Canada so I am not sure what the coldest state is. For those who live in the US I have a few questions…Was Minnesota a good choice? Does it even snow in Malibu? Does Malibu even get cold winters? Obviously I guessed when I said it takes five days to travel across the US but how long does it really take?
The next chapter should be up shortly.
