I walked home alone.It was the last day of school,so people around me were runnig around,yelling,laughing,screaming and some even saying goodbye to life long friends.My best friends,Miley Stewart and Oliver Oken,were avoiding me.We had been friends since preschool and now it was all ruined.Just over one stupid thing I said.

FLASHBACK

Miley,Oliver and Lily were walking down the stairs to lunch."I'm so glad we are going to Florida!"Lily said to Miley.

"I know!It's gonna be GREAT!"Miley said.

"I'm so glad you're not going,Oliver!!You would probably break something,I'm sure!"Lily said,bit harsher then she meant.

"Lily,that was mean."Miley told her friend.

"I'm just kidding.But,come on he is a stupid little clutz."Lily said.Oliver had a huge crush on Lily.

"Thanks,Lily.What a great friend!"Oliver said as he sped off.

"I'm sorry,Ollie!"Lily called after him,but it was to late.Miley ran after him and Lily was left in the hallway all alone.

END OF FLASHBACK

Before I knew it,she was down the street from I house.I really just wanted to get home before Miley.Unfortinutly,Miley lived right across the street.I saw Miley's dad about to pull up into there driveway.I ran past the car,hoping to avoid Miley.I stepped onto the porch and was about to go in when I saw Miley looking at her from the corner of My eye.I turned my head,just to see Miley's front door slam shut.I walked inside her house.I dog,Blake,ran up to me."Hey,Blakey!"me said and petted him."I'm home!!"I shouted as I walked through the living room.

"How was school?"I mom,Heather,asked.

"Good."I replied.

"Hey,Lils,can you babysit your brother tonight?"

"Ugh!Yeah,I guess!"

"Thanks,sweetie.I'm leaving at 5:30."Mom said and walked out of the room.I looked at my watch.It was 3:23.That only gave my a little bit of time to do the things I had to do before babysitting Trenton,her 3-year-old brother.I continued down the hall way and up the stairs to my room.I opened my door and went into my room.I flopped onto my bed.I kicked off my shoes and threw my backpack in my closet.Normally,I'd toss it on the floor,but,resently,I cleaned out my room and it looked waaaay better.I kind of wanted it to stay that way.I got off my bed and started up my computer.I logged onto my MSN account and noticed Miley,Oliver,Taylor and Jake were on.Oliver immedetly logged off,once he noticed I was on.A message popped on my screen.It was from Taylor.

Taybaby42:kk

I got up from her computer and went to find my mom."Mom!"I said"Can Taylor come over to help me babysit?"

"Taylor?Of course!She so sweet.I don't mind,baby."Mom answered.

"Thanks!I'm gonna tell her to head over here at 5-ish?"I said.

"Ok,Lils."Mom said.I went back to my room.I sat down at my computer.

Lilypad:Well you can come over here at about 5:00

Lilypad:I gotta go

Taybaby42:Kk

Taybaby42:Cya in a few

Lilypad:Bye

Taybaby42:Bye

Taybaby42 has logged off

I logged of MSN and got up from my computer.I looked at my watch again.It said 4:55.5 minutes.I went downstairs to see if Taylor was here.It only took her about 2 minutes to get there.She lived right down the street,closer Oliver's house.Taylor walked up the steps.I knew she was here because I heard her stomp onto the porch.I opened the door.I noticed Miley was out.Miley looked at me and waved.Maybe things were all right again.

"Hi,Lily.Hey,Heather."Taylor said as I let her in.

"Hi,Taylor."I said."Well,now that your little "babysitting club" is here I better be going.Bye,baby.See ya' later,Taylor."Mom kissed my on the forehead,grabbed her purse and car keys and left.

"Let's go to my room.Trenton's taking a nap."I said,quietly going up the stairs.Taylor followed.

"Did you talk to Miley on MSN?"Tayloy asked.

"No."I replied."I thought about it,though."

"Can you check to see if she is on?"

"Hmmm...yeah.I guess.Wouldn't hurt to try."

I logged onto MSN (our lives revolve around MSN!) and noticed that Miley,Oliver and Jake were still on."Think I should message them?"I pondered.Taylor shook her head,"yes".

Lilypad:Hi

No one answered.

Lilypad:Miley

Lilypad:Are you there

SmileyMiley:Yeah.I'm right here

Lilypad:LookI'm sorry

SmileyMiley:Don't worry about I forgive you

Lilypad:Thanks

"It's all good with me and Miley.Now Oliver."Lily said.Lily sent a message to Oliver.

Lilypad:Do you hate me

SmokinOken:No I dont hate you

SmokinOken:I could never hate you

Lilypad:I'm really sorry

Lilypad:I was just trying to kid around

SmokinOken:It's OK

Lilypad:Friends

SmokinOken:Forever

"See!Told you they don't hate you."Taylor said and gave me a friendly little shove.I smiled at her.Then,we heard Trenton screaming.We got scared and ran downstairs.We saw Trenton just standing in his crib sceaming and crying."What happened?"Taylor asked.

"Ke-ke jump on me!!"Trenton said in baby talk.

"Ke-ke?"Taylor asked me.

"Kitty."I said as I picked Trenton up.Taylor nodded her head."Could you go get his juice for me,please?It's on the top shelf in the fridge."

"Kay!"Taylor said and went into the kitchen.Taylor came back witha sippy-cup full of apple juice.

"Thanks."I said and set Trenton down.

"Hey,when's Ryan coming back?"Taylor asked.It's hard to believe,but,I'm Ryan Shecklers step-sister.I know.Lily Truscott,queen of all dorks,is related to Ryan Sheckler,the hottest pro-skater on the planet!

"Why?Ya' gotta se your baby Ry?"Lily asked,using a baby voice.

"Shut up!"Taylor said."No,I just want to see him.We are kind of dating."I said nothing.I was kind of upset.Ever since Taylor and Ryan started dating,I never see Ryan anymore.I just keep hoping that one of these days,Ryan will relize how hurt I am.Just then,I saw Ryan,my 16 year old step-brother,Shane and my 9 year old step-brother,Kane,all walk in the door.

"Hey,Lils."Ryan said to me as he sat on the soft couch next to me.

"Hey."I said dryly.Being 17,Ryan was usually out with friends,Taylor or our brothers,but never with me.I mean,every once in awhile,we go somewhere or we go skating.(I'm a preety good skater,too.)

"How was school?"Ryan asked,trying to make conversation.I don't know why,but,if I looked him in the eyes,I would get upset.

"It was good.What'd you do today?"I said.

"Nothing really.I went to the skate park with Shane.Ya' know,you could come whenever we go."

"I know.But,I figured Shane and Kane and you don't want dumb old me in the way."

"You're not dumb,Lily!And I would'nt mind and I know they wont."Ryan said,utting his hand on my leg.I said nothing and got up.I knew I would cry if I said anything more.I went to my room.I didn't forget about Trenton.Mom came home and took over.Taylor left,so,all I had to worry about was Ryan.I was upset and a little mad.I really wanted to leave,but,it was already 10:30 PM.I opened my CD player and put in my favorite CD.I turned it to number 12 which was "When Your Gone" by Avril Lavinge.I turned up a little to loud because after a few seconds,someone knocked on my door.I paused the CD and walked to the door.I opened to door to see Ryan standing outside my door.

"Mom said turn it dow now."he said.I rolled my eyes and slammed the door."Hey!!"I heard Ryan say from outside.I ignored him and heard him stomp down the hallway and down the stairs.I opened my closet.I took out some soft pink pajamas and put them on.I took my hair down to brush it.After all this,I went downstairs.I saw Ryans friend.Normally,I would be emmbarressed and mad when they laughed at me (my pajamas!!!) but, this time,I really didn't care.

"Nice PJs!"he said.I didn't do anything,just walked right passed him.I went out the front door and sat on the porch.It was burning hot out here!Resently,Ryan and his friends came out,along with Kane and Shane.I took of my hoodie to reveal a pink tank top that was a bit revealing.I noticed Ryan's friend,Casey,staring at me.Not really me,more my chest.I glared at him and got his attention.He shot his eyes away from me as I flopped back in my chair.I really had no idea what I was doing out here.My boyfriend,also Ryans best friend,Tony,put his arm around me as I turned on my Zune.I looked up at him and smiled.I looked through the songs and finally found one I like."Stickwitu"by The Pussycat Dolls.I turned the volume down to 10,just so I could still here anything my friends said.I felt something vibrating on my leg.I look down at my phone.I got a text message from Ryan,even though he was right next to me.I look over at him and gave him a confused look.He shushed me.I flipped open my phone and read the text.

From:555-5555

Taylor is really getting on my nerves.She is sooooo pushy! I'm gonna break up with her...

I was just a bit shocked by the text,but,answered it anyway.

To:555-3333

Whatever!She is getting a little annoying.

Ryan opened his phone and read the text.He nodded his head at me and walked over to Taylor.He pulled her over to the side.

"Oooooh..."all of us chorused.

"Oh,shut it!"Ryan snapped back,playfully.

"What's he doing,Lily?"Casey asked me.

"Breaking up with her."Lily said."She's being a bitch."

"Wow."Casey said.We started talking about Ryans possible future girlfriends.

"What?!?"we all heard Taylor yell.

Stop it,Taylor."Ryan said.All of our attention was focused on them,like it was a freaking soap opera!

"Did your slutty sister put you up to this?!?"Taylor said.The second I heard the word sister,I jumped up.

"Taylor,stop this shit!"Ryan told her.

"No!Why are you doing this?!?Just 'cause that bitch told you to?Thats bullshit."Taylor said.That's when I lost it.I ran off the porch.

"Shut the fuck up!I'm not the one walking around here in little hooker clothes!"I yelled as Ryan tried to stop me.

"Stop,Lily!"Ryan yelled at me.He looked me straight in the eye and I did the same to him.

"No,let her go.Let the little wannabe stripper go!I don't care what that whore says!She's just scared that her prescious brother is gonna get hurt!"Taylor screamed.I freaked out.I pushed her.I was in tears.She flipped me off and walked home.What she said hurt me.She put me down for her own amusement.I leaned my head on Ryans chest and cried.Presently,Shane took Kane inside.My mom came out.

"It's ok,Lily."ryan said rubbing my back.Shane,Casey,Tony and Mom surrounded me.I couldn't believe what was hapening.Not two hours ago we were best friends.And now it was all gone...
