Hi everyone! This is my first Loliver story. Yes, I've done this pairing, but it's never been my main one. This time it is. Oh, and Achy Jakey Heart never happened. But all the other episodes did, including the new one for next Saturday which is on YouTube.
Summary- Lilly's always felt like second place to Miley. Now, Miley and Oliver are dating, and she can't handle it. Jake gets back from Romania, and he's hurt at what he sees. He notices Lilly and how jealous she is. Together, they concoct a plan to make Oliver fall back in love with his skate-boarding best friend. Can they pull it off?
Disclaimer: what's the point of this? We all know that if anyone owned anything besides their stories, they wouldn't bother being on here!
Hi. My name is Lilly Truscott. You see that happy couple over there? Yeah that one. Those are my two best friends, Miley and Oliver. I know I should be happy for them, but that's kinda hard when you're in love with one half of the couple. No not Miley! Oliver.
Ya see, when we were younger, he had a crush on me. It was obvious. Then Miley came. Boy, I miss the days when he thought she ate possum. After Jake left for Romania, Oliver was there to comfort her. I think he should he should be called rebound boy.
Well, Jake's scheduled to come back in a few days; that should be interesting. Maybe Miley will go back to him. Yeah, and maybe while she's at it, she'll tell the world she's Hannah Montana. Oops! You can't tell anyone that I told you, especially her.
Hi. I'm Smokin Oken, but you can call me Oliver. Ya see, recently I thought I had a crush on one of my best friends, Miley.
Well, when I told her, we did a test kiss, but neither of us felt sparks. I realized that I was just trying to get over Lilly. She'll never love me as anything more than her donut, best friend. Miley agreed to help me make Lilly jealous, and in return, when Jake comes back, we'll make him jealous. She's trying to get him back for leaving right after he gave her her first kiss.
Hey, I'm Miley. I bet Oliver's already told ya about us making two people jealous by 'dating'. I knew it. Ya know, that boy can't keep a secret to save his life. I'm amazed he's managed to keep it a secret that I'm Hannah Montana- oops! Please don't tell anyone! Thanks. Anyway, I just hope he manages to keep it a secret that we aren't really dating.
Monday Morning, 8:15 AM, 15 minutes after first period started:
I was running late. Not good. This is a really bad day. First, my alarm doesn't go off. Then, I stubbed my toe on my desk. Next, my sister used all the hot water, so I had to take a cold shower. Then, my dog ate my homework (no, it's not an excuse). I missed the bus, so I had to skate board. Normally, I'm ok with that, but not when it starts raining. Aw man! I just remembered I have a science test today. Right before study hall.
I was so busy complaining in my head about today that I didn't notice that someone was right in front of me, and accidentally walked into them.
"Oops, sorry. This has just been the worst day and first period isn't even over yet and- Jake?!" I noticed that familiar head of once shaggy blonde hair, now well groomed and longer; and a bit lighter too.
"Hey Lilly!" He helped me pick up my books, and then gave me a quick hug.
"How was Romania? And why were you gone 8 months instead of 4?" I asked accusingly. Well, if he hadn't been gone so long, Miley and Oliver wouldn't be a couple.
"It was ok. And sorry. They added more onto the script. Now what's this about the worst day?"
"Maybe I could tell you at lunch. Right now we need to get to class. What do you have?"
"Uh" he pulled out his schedule, "English."
"Me too. We can walk together."
"Cool." And we headed off to English.
When we got there, I entered first. I told the teacher sorry and that there's a new student at the door.
She went and opened it and immediately screamed like a teenage girl. And, as soon as every girl saw, they did too. I looked at Miley and noticed that, for a split second, she had what looked like an evil glint in her green eyes, but it was immediately replaced with a simple eye roll.
I took my seat which was three seats behind Miley. Oliver was next to her. Then Jake took the empty seat next to me.
The teacher didn't do much, and gave us the last half of the class to talk with our neighbors. I could sort of hear what Miley and Oliver were saying.
"Hey, wanna hang out tonight?" Miley asked.
"Sure. We could g to Rico's." He responded.
"Alright. Do you think Lilly would want to come?" She asked.
"I'll ask." Oliver turned around in his chair, and right as he was gonna ask me, I said, "No, I have homework to catch up on. And I wouldn't want to be the third wheel."
He just shrugged and turned around. Jake, who had apparently been listening, looked confused.
"What do you mean third wheel?" He asked suspiciously.
"Well, for the past month, I've felt left out." I responded, and he started to get a hurt/understanding look on his face.
"Please tell me you don't mean…"He looked at them and saw they were whispering in each other's ears.
"Yup." And I gave a reproachful look at the back of Miley's giggling head. He saw this.
"You like Oliver, don't you?" He gave me a knowing smile.
"What?! No! We're just- I mean- well-" he cocked an eyebrow "yeah. He used to like me. Then Miley came and… it doesn't matter. They're together and that's that."
"We could try breaking them up." He suggested.
"Nah. If they ever figured out, they'd never forgive us." I answered truthfully.
"We could pretend to go out to make them jealous."
"That never works." (LOL)
"We could make them fall back in love with us."
"Oh come on! That's just- brilliant! Third time's the charm."
"Thank you. So how're we gonna do that?"
"I thought you already had a plan."
"Hey, I came up with the idea. You can come up with the plan." He said with finality.
"Fine. How bout you come over to my house after school and we can get started then."
"Ok."
The rest of the day went by in a blur. But my day did start looking up. We had a substitute in science and apparently Kunkle didn't leave behind an itinerary so the quiz was canceled.
And my mom called all of my teachers that I had homework for and told them that my dog really did eat it.
Lunch wasn't real great though. Jake had a huge mob so he couldn't sit with us. So I was all alone with the happy couple.
Jake and I got paired up for a project in history, so now we have an excuse for him to come over.
Before I knew it, Jake and I were in his limo and I was giving his driver directions to my house.
When we got there, nobody was home. I let Thor out of his kennel and he went up and started sniffing Jake.
"Cool dog." He complimented after Thor was outside doing his business.
"Pain in the neck is more like it. He ate my homework this morning." He cocked his eyebrows in disbelievement.
"I'm telling the truth. My mom called all my teachers and told them." I defended.
"Whatever. Look, today, someone handed me this flyer." He held out an advertisement for our school talent show coming up.
"Yeah, what of it?"
"We could sign up and let them know how we really feel."
"Doing what, a skit?" Please don't say singing, please don't say singing!
"No, singing." Dang!
"But I can't sing."
"Oh, come on. It can't be that bad."
"Oh yeah? Listen to this." I played the tape of me singing (not the mixed version) while I plugged my ears.
"Ok, well that's all I got for now. Maybe we could get you some help."
"First we need to find a song."
"Right." We put on the radio and after a few songs, we were still empty handed. Then the song Everything You Want came on, and Jake thought it would be a good one for him to do. I pulled out my iPod to listen to some music. My newest favorite song started playing and that's when I slapped myself. I let Jake listen to it and we both agreed that it was perfect. And it turns out that his mom and Paula DeAnda are pretty close friends.
We got in the limo and went to his house. When we got there, he told his mom that I wanted to sing Paula's song in the talent show and I needed some singing help. She called Paula and we have a meeting Saturday morning.
Tuesday Morning:
Today, Jake signed us up for the talent show. It was a week from Friday. I was really nervous. What if the lesson didn't go well and I couldn't do it.
I brought up this scenario to take Jake, who said "You'll be fine. You only need to know one song."
"I guess. Thanks."
Wednesday Afternoon:
I found out that Miley's announcing the talent show and Oliver's operating the radio for the singers. That'll be great. (Note sarcastic tone and face.)
Thursday Afternoon:
Miley invited me to her Hannah concert Friday night, but I said no. She probably thinks I'm avoiding her. Ok, I am, but the reason I said no to the concert is because I have that appointment on Saturday morning with Paula DeAnda and I need my beauty sleep.
Friday Morning:
I was at my locker when Miley came up.
"Lilly, I just got the list of acts for the talent show. You wanna look them with me and make fun of the acts we know are gonna stink?"
"No thanks. And where's your boyfriend?" I asked with a bit of attitude which I normally don't use. She looked taken aback.
"He had a dentist appointment. And what's your problem?"
"I don't have a problem. But ya know, it takes a lot of guts for someone to perform in front of their classmates, knowing that if they screw up it'll haunt them all the way til senior year! Oh, but that doesn't bother little miss Hannah Montana!" I whisper-yelled the last part.
"Whoa, Lilly what's gotten into you?" She asked and I could tell she was starting to flare up.
"I'm sick of feeling like a third wheel! Do you know how it feels when your two best friends are always leaving you out?! I'm done!" And with that I stormed off, after slamming my locker for dramatic effect.
Saturday Morning:
Jake and I got to the studio by 8:00 AM. We walked in and showed security our badges. When we got to the room she was in, I was kinda nervous.
After I introduced myself, she sat me down and had me sing. I really didn't want to, but I knew it was necessary if I wanted to improve.
"Well, I have heard worse." She commented. She gave me some tips and had me lower my voice and told me not to sing so loud. After a few times rehearsing, Jake gave me a thumbs up. I listened to it on a playback, and it was actually good.
Monday Morning:
I walked into school today. Unfortunately, my locker was close to Miley's. And, what do ya know! Oliver was there. After grabbing my books, I walked past Miley's locker to where Jake's was a few away.
The rest of the week I spent lunch with Jake, and Amber and Ashley were forced to be nice to me.
Miley kept glaring at me and actually looked… jealous. But why? She had Oliver.
Soon it was Friday, and frankly, I was freakin out! Jake kept saying that I'd be fine. I tried convincing myself that, but it wasn't working to well.
Friday Night:
The show was being held at Rico's. There were about 20 acts signed up. I was right after Jake who was after Dandruff Danny and his comedy.
"Alright, and up next, you know him. You love him. It's his first time singing. Give it up everyone for Jake Ryan!
It's been one week since you looked at me Hold it now and watch the hoodwink How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad It's been one week since you looked at me Chickity China the Chinese chicken Like Kurasawa I make mad films How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad It's been one week since you looked at me It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"
Five days since you laughed at me saying
"Get that together come back and see me"
Three days since the living room
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi
'cause it's never touched a frying pan
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like LeAnn Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through
Gonna make a break and take a fake
I'd like a stinkin achin shake
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavors
Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
Cause it's so dangerous,
you'll have to sign a waiver
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of taking off my shirt
Threw your arms in the air
and said "You're crazy"
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault
not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin' X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic
Like Sting I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy
Okay, I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a Samurai
Gonna get a set a' better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing
Tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt
Dropped your arms to your sides
and said "I'm sorry"
Five days since I laughed at you and said
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame,
but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

"Well, wasn't that… interesting?" The audience went mad. Jake came back and gave me a reassuring smile. I felt a little better. "And up next we have Lilly Truscott." The audience murmured probably bringing up the last time I sang in front of them.
Ooh, no She's got green eyes and she's 5'5"
Yeah, yeah
Long brown hair all down her back
Cadillac truck, so the hell what
What's so special about that Ooh, ooh, and I'm not jealous, no I'm not
She used to model, she's done some acting
So she weighs a buck o 5
and I guess that she's alright if perfection's what you like
Ooh, ooh, I just want everything she's got
Ooh, ooh, you look at her so amazed
I remember way back when
You used to look at me that way Tell me
what makes her so much better than me
What makes her just everything that I can never be And now you don't feel the same Ooh, ooh, and I'm not jealous, no I'm not Oh, What makes her so much better than me That made you smile, me
What makes her your every dream and fantasy
Because I can remember when it was me
I remember you would shiver every time I said your name
You said nothing felt as good as when you gaze into my eyes
Now you don't care I'm alive
How did we let the fire die
Ooh, ooh, I just want everything she's got
Ooh, ooh, you look at her so amazed
I remember way back when you used to look at me that way
What makes her just everything that I can never be
What makes her your every dream and fantasy
Because I can remember when it was me
That made you laugh
Me that makes you happier than you have ever been,
oh me, That was your world, me What makes her so much better than me
Your perfect girl
Nothing about me has changed
That's why I'm here wondering
What makes her just everything I can never be What makes her so much better than me When it was me
What makes her your every dream and fantasy
Because I can't remember when it was me
What makes her just everything that I can never be
What makes her your every dream and fantasy
Because I can't remember when it was me
When it was me
When it was me
"You were great. I told you." Jake said.
After the show:
Miley and Oliver walked up to me and Jake.
"Hey." Miley said.
"Hi." I said quietly. Jake and Oliver just did that stupid guy head nod that guys do when there's tension between them.
"Listen, we have a confession. Oliver and I were never really dating." Jake and I just gaped at them. Oliver continued.
"I did like Miley. But we did a test kiss and felt nothing. I was just trying to get over you." He pointed at me. "Miley agreed to help make you jealous, and in return, when you got back" he pointed at Jake "I'd help make you jealous."
"Miley, I'm sorry for blowing up at you." I apologized.
"No, I shouldn't have gone along with it. I just wanted Jake to hurt like he hurt me." and she gave him a glare.
"I'm sorry. I didn't plan on kissing you then leaving." She gave him an understanding look. "So, will you go out with me?" He asked looking extremely hopeful.
"I guess." She said, faking the reluctance in her voice.
They looked at me and Oliver, then left. "So, do you like me too?" he asked. Once a donut always a donut.
"Of course." I answered.
"Then, will you go out with me?" he had the same look Jake just had.
"Yeah, I'd like that." Suddenly, out of no where, Miley appeared and said, "Great! We can double!" she and I started happy dancing like nothing had ever happened this past month and a half.
We went to a movie. A little ways into it, Oliver did that move. Ya know the one where they yawn and 'casually' drape their arm around your shoulder? That one. I just rolled my eyes and laid my head on his chest.
Jake's driver dropped us off at my house. Oliver lived next door, but he insisted on walking me to mine. He was so cute when he was trying to be Romantic.
"Well..." I said with my attempt at breaking the awkward silence between us. It sounds dorky, but I was waiting for him to kiss me. I'd never had a real kiss before, unless you count one game of spin the bottle at Amber and Ashley's anual summer party, because I had wanted it to be with Oliver. But he was just being a chicken!
"So, how bout that movie. It was sure good, wasn't it?" He asked, looking completely unsure of what to do. I thought I'd, uh, help him out.
"Oh just kiss me!" I didn't exactly yell it at him because my dad was probably in the living room which was just on the other side of the door we were in front of. He may not be as bad as Miley's dad, who's probably out on the front porch with them, but he has this look that he gives guys. It's sort of a 'What are your intentions with my daughter?' kinda look. (Yes, I am stalling. I have a knack for it. Just read mine or Puppylover04's profial and you'll see. Yup, still stalling. Fine, you win!)
I'd always wanted a slow, romantic kiss, but eh, what the heck?!
I grabbed Oliver's shirt collar and pulled him in. As soon as ur lips touched, I felt like I had been electricuted, but hey, I didn't care! He seemed shocked at first, but then he started kissing back and soon he had his arms around my waist and mine were around his neck. Miley was probably kissing Jake now, cause she has her ways of avoiding daddy, but I didn't care. After all, this is MY story!
Phew! That is the most I've ever put up at once. Well, more for you to enjoy. And you better have, because this took three days. THREE DAYS! So review and don't let me have wasted all that time. There, happy?! I added more detail.
