Chapter One- The Story so Far
WHEN they had broken up a great division amongst the student body of Seaview high occurred. Despite their lack of popularity, everyone loved the couple because their story was pretty romantic for real life. They were best friends since preschool and had managed to maintain a close friendship during high school until they finally realised their true feelings and fell in love. Their break-up was harsh and bitter, people picked sides and the battles began.
As expected the friendship between Miley, Lilly and Oliver ended. Miley could not handle the ultimatum put on her from the ex-lovers. She just could not pick between her to best friends. They went their separate ways, seemingly forgetting everything they had been through together. Nobody could believe it. Their relationship was glorified but they were only sixteen at the time, people seem to forget that.
The stench of the garbage was nearly unbearable. Oliver forced himself to crawl under his bed and clear out the rubbish that had accumulated for who knows how long. After missing his curfew three school nights in a row, his mother had enough and meant that Oliver would be subjected to cleaning duties his whole weekend. As he lay on his stomach, he pushed the broom in front of him and began scrapping out the rubbish that lived beneath. Most of it went straight to the garbage but Oliver was surprised at all the things he had deemed lost forever. As he threw out old exam papers and useless schoolbooks, he came across a large envelope. Confused as to what it was, he sat crossed legged between the piles of junk and opened the seal. As soon as he laid eyes on the contents, he remembers. When Lily and he had started dating, he began to accumulating tokens and photos of their time together. Of course being the guy he was, instead of framing the photos he quickly shoved them into this spare envelope. He could not remember at what time he had stopped adding to the collection or how he could have even forgotten its existences. Tipping out the contents, he was not sure whether he was ready to look through the photos. As he turned the first one around and looked down that their smiling faces, he could not deal with it. Without a second thought, he dumped the rest into a large garbage bag.
He regretted the day he ever believed Lilly loved him. To him she had been perfect and their relationship was something that people looked on with envy. He had spent the last year wondering what he did wrong that would drive her to another boy but now had reached the point where he did not care. He did not realise how easy it would be finding a new girlfriend. The girls in his year loved that he was a 'wounded' man. They wanted to protect and nurture the sweet heart that had gone through the ultimate betrayal from his long time girlfriend. After dating a couple of different types of girls, he was finally satisfied with Becca. He pretended not to notice the large similarities
Between Becca and Lilly and spent his nights going out to parties with the blonde by her side. His parents were shocked and disappointed with the change in their son and were beginning to get fed up with the seventeen year-old coming home late and drunk but felt that it was some sought of dangerous rite of passage that they couldn't change.

She did not notice Lilly sitting beside her as she grabbed a drink from Rico's. Miley was stunned at her tiny frame. She barely saw Lilly at school due to the lack of classes they shared but every time she saw her, she seemed to be getting thinner and thinner. Hanging out with Amber and Ashley must have been taking its toll she thought bitterly. She could not help but feel desperate to help her old best friend but she made a promise that Lilly, Oliver and she would stay out of each other's lives. Miley was not sure what she believed about Lilly cheating on Oliver. Lilly had continued to deny it since the break-up, but Miley could not deny the strange behaviour of Lilly near the end of the relationship.
Avoiding making eye contact, she grabbed her water and made her way back over to her friends. "Was that Lilly?" asked a petite brunette Rachel, Miley nodded "she looks so unwell" the three girls glanced at the blonde with pity "yeah, but you don't have to deal with that now that you have normal friends" Monique called causing the group to burst into giggles. Miley laughed along with the rest of the group but was unable to feel sadness when she thought about her old friend.
'Where the hell is she?' Lilly thought desperately. She glanced at her watch again, thirty seconds since she had last checked. "Lilly Babe!" the familiar voice rang out and Lilly swivelled around and cried "Amber! Biatch! Get over here!" Amber sauntered across to Rico's bench, bathing in the attention her tiny bikini bought. The two girls hugged "god girl you're lost weight" Lilly looked down and answered "your kidding me right? I still have a couple more kilos to lose!" Amber glanced down at her as if she was glad she did not have to say it. "Wanna tan?" Lilly nodded, grabbing her towel and they headed down to their favourite spot.
"So how was Australia?" Amber sighed, "family holidays are always the shit" Lilly nodded in agreement "so good to be back but, jeez I hate school" Lilly nodded turning out and watching the waves in front of her. For the first time in months, she felt like surf. As the sets rolled in she wanted to grab her old board and just feel the freedom she had not experienced in so long. She glanced down the beach, not surprised by the old faces she saw grabbing their boards and racing into the water. Lilly stopped herself from thinking about surfing and focused back on Ambers story, surfing was apart of her old life. It reminded her so much of the carefree days spent with Oliver that she wanted to cry. A year on and that relationship still upset her and Lilly believed that the pain from it would never end.
After the break-up and the 'split' from Miley, Lilly found herself alone and without proper friends. When Amber and Ashley approached her, she was shocked at their interest for her to join their group. Amber and Ashley believed Lilly to be everything her reputation had expressed. Lilly was painted as this vixen, with absolutely no facts but that did not matter to Amber and Ashley (most of their popularity was based on myth anyway). In less then a month she had shredded the old Lilly (including her old weight) and replaced her with a new and seemingly improved version. Now she could be found in any dark corner making out with the latest hottest guy in school.
"Lilly? Are you even listening to me?"
"Huh? Oh sorry what did you ask?"
"What's Ashley been like?" Lilly rolled her eyes "can you guess? An utter try hard bitch" the girls giggled. It was tradition that whenever one was not around the other two would make fun of her ruthlessly. Lilly always wondered what they spoke about when she wasn't around and it upset her when she thought about it to much but she had to understand that if she wasn't going to stop she couldn't expect her best friends to do that either. "She totally denies giving Josh a BJ between classes, but I mean come on! You should have seen her wiping her mouth in maths!" Amber laughed heartily at the fresh gossip Lilly supplied "god what a slut! I mean josh is hot but if you are going to do that sought of stuff between classes he would have to be an absolute babe!"
"Like Lucas?" Amber pulled off her glasses, shocked "Lilly! You sucked him off between class?" Lilly looked coy "maybe?"
"Girl, you're a tease!"
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
It took four, painstaking hours but it was finally done. As the garbage lid slammed shut with the final bang, he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket. He smiled as Becca's grinning face flashing on his screen. "Babe, what's up?"
"Just wondering what you're up to tonight?"
"You know I can't go out, not after the last couple of nights," he added with a laugh
"Aww! Please? There is a party happening and we have to been seen there! Not everyone realises we were official yet" Becca was always stressing that the female population did not know that Oliver was taken and would continue to go after him. "Don't sweat about it" Her jealously was slightly annoying but that was only the only fault he could really find. "So when and where is this party?" He continued. She gave him the details and he hung up, after promising he would see what he could do.
Sneaking out was easy. Even if his parents caught him, he would be punished to cleaning his already clean room, but he was not sure if he really wanted to go. Lilly was bound to be there and although they had been to a couple of the same parties, he doubted whether he could be bothered dealing with all that tonight. He passed his parents on his way to his bedroom. He shook his head. Maybe his recent activities were to grab their attention, let them know that he was still hurting. He flopped on his bed, so should he go? Yes, he thought suddenly, he could not let Lilly run his life.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Miley, Monique and Hannah sat at the tables and chairs in front of Rico's questioning whether they should be seen at the newest party. "I don't know" Hannah declared, "I mean it's always the same people, same music and everyone always drinks!"
"Yeah well that's what makes it a party…" Monique snipped "I'm going, with or without you guys" Miley sighed, "guys, come one, lets not turn this into another argument over nothing". The small group was seen as the do gooders of their grade Yes, they were seen at parties but never drank, danced or pash randoms. Some respected them and others made fun of them for it but it caused some major disagreement between the girls. Hannah hated going to that parties but feared of being left out. Monique claimed to be a drunk but everyone doubted if she had ever taken a sip. Miley was easy going and enjoyed just catching up with everyone but she hated her group's image. She wanted to get in the middle of the pounding crowd and dance. Although her friends could handle her having a few drinks and making light conversation, they were to restraint to let her dance. Another thing she missed of her old life.
"Well I'm going" Miley piped up, "I mean why not? I free, why stop myself from having fun?" The others smiled in agreement. "Sounds good"
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Amber reapplied sunscreen "Lilly, pick you up at seven?" she asked "sure".
And that was that.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
The bodies pounded to the deep beat of the music. Beer and cheap spirits flowed freely into the cups of the hoards of underage drinkers. Lilly pushed her way through the heavy crowd, trying to find a place to breathe. She had lost Amber and Ashley a while ago but was not fazed about mingling alone. She made it to the back door and stepped out onto the veranda. The cool beach air hit her face and she smiled at the sensation. Lilly had not been alone in the fresh air in awhile. She closed her eyes and breathed deeply, her troubles seemed to slip away. "Lilly?" disappointed her moment was ruined; she smiled to find Josh standing behind her. "Hey Josh, what are you up to?" Josh smirked "enjoying the view" and he stared freely at her chest. He lent down capturing her lips in a kiss "what about Ashley?" she mumbled against his lips "who cares?" he muttered back. As the kiss slowly deepens, Lilly became very aware of his roaming hands. She was open to him coping a feel but he was beginning to become intrusive. "Josh, don't" as his hands travelled further down "what, you don't mind do you?"
"Well yeah I kind of do" Josh pressed harder with both his lips and his hands "please Josh don't"
"Come on girls like that"
"Please don't" she began to push him away, but he pushed her up against the house. "Come on Lily… This is no worse then the stories I heard about you"
"Well you have got it wrong, now get off' but he didn't, pushing his hands up her top, he pressed hard on her breasts. Lilly called out in pain but was unheard to the raging party inside. Crying uncontrollably as his sucked hard on her neck, Lilly felt helpless. "Get The Fuck Off Her" although she had not heard it in awhile, she knew that voice. 'Oliver' she thought. Cold air hit her as josh was ripped of her. "Get the fuck out of here," Oliver bellowed but Josh was unfazed "sure, whatever" he spat on the ground and re-entered the house, leaving Oliver and Lilly alone. Lilly suddenly felt stupid in her skimpy top and tiny shorts. They avoided each others eyes, but the electricity charged between them "well thanks" Lilly said, breaking the horrible silence. Oliver shrugged "I do it for anyone, even when they don't deserve it" Lilly stared at the ground. Oliver rubbed his eyes "look Lilly, go away. Just go"
"Where should I go Oliver?"
"I don't know, but every time I fucking see you I wanna break something"
"Get the fuck over yourself, we broke up a fucking year ago" their voices began to raise and the anger evident in their body language and tone "what you think I'm pining for you?" he taunted, "You think I need you that bad?" Lilly shrugged "well you must feel something to keep thinking about it, if you were over it you been indifferent to me" Oliver could help but recognise the truth in her words. "I don't need your shit, I mean what the fuck happened Lilly? Your a little whore now…" he drifted of gesturing to her body "fuck off Oliver, you don't know who the hell I am now"
"You have that good damn right"
