Lilly and Oliver where hanging out by the vending machines in the cafeteria, and as usual the machine wouldn't take the dollar Lilly was trying to give it.
"Come on! Take the freaking dollar!" Lilly screamed kicking the machine.
"Lil, I don't think that is going to help at all." Oliver said calmly.
"I hate this machine, I want my Snapple!" She yelled.
"Lilly, I have to go home, my band is about to practice and we have to be ready for our first concert."
"Fine! Leave me here to fight with this dumb machine…" Lilly said over dramatically. Oliver rolled his eyes and left to go home.
"Need some help?" A guy's voice asked from behind Lilly.
"Yes please!" Lilly exclaimed handing the guy the dollar. He had some-what long, really straight, red hair. It hung in his eyes, which were a bright green be had milky white skin and Lilly had to admit: he was hot!
"No problem." The hot guy said putting the dollar in the machine with ease. "I'm Pat"
"Lilly" Lilly stuck her hand out and shook Pat's. She then pushed the button on the machine that said 'peach Snapple'. "My favorite" Lilly said.
"Mine too!" Pat grinned. He bent over and presented the Snapple to Lilly like it was something very holy. Lilly laughed.
"Thank you sir!" She said. She put her arm out insinuating that Pat should grab it and he did.
"No problem, so where shall I escort you?" He asked, Lilly had never seen him before so she figured he was a new kid. He had an Irish drawl that Lilly found extremely attractive. This could be the guy Lilly thought.
"Home" She grinned. All this was moving a little fast but Lilly couldn't help it, this guy was charming.
"Yes ma'am." He grinned and pulled her out the door. Lilly sipped his Snapple and let go of his arm. "So tell me, does a pretty girl like you have a boyfriend?"
Man! This kid is smooth! Lilly thought, "No," she shrugged, "Does a handsome boy like you have a girlfriend?" She returned with a smirk.
"Nope, so that's one thing we have in common. Maybe another thing is that I want to kiss you so badly right now."
"Pat…it is a little to fast for me, you know?" She said with Oliver's face coming to mind. If she kissed Pat she would have to tell Oliver and she wasn't exactly up to that. Pat shook his head.
"I get it. So I come from Ireland, just moved here from there." Lilly nodded, he moved on quickly.
"Cool." She said not very interested.
"Maybe we could go on a date, you know get to know each other better?" Pat offered, or maybe he doesn't move on quickly. She thought.
"Sure, I'd be happy to do that." Lilly finished her Snapple and threw it in the garbage can she passed by. He grabbed her had.
"Sweet, how about tomorrow at 6 o'clock. I'll take you to dinner and dancing at this club for teenagers!" he wrote down his phone number on a piece of paper and handed it to Lilly, she took it and put it in her pocket.
"Perfect" she smiled. So now she was going on a date with him and Oliver would get extremely overprotective as he usually does. It seems like Oliver likes me but it can't be, he never does anything else that would make it seem that way. Lilly thought, she had given up on him a long time ago, or at least she had made it seem like she made it seem like she had. The truth was Lilly Truscott still had the biggest crush on Oliver Oaken, and he had no idea.
"Great" Pat returned and kissed Lilly's hand. Smooth She thought dully. He walked in a different direction and Lilly was soon at her house. She picked up her phone right away and dialed Miley's phone number.
"Miley" she sung into the phone.
"Lilly" she sung right back.
"Major problem. I am going on a date with the new kid, Pat. It's tomorrow at six and he's taking me to dinner." Lilly said.
"And that is a problem…why?" Miley asked.
"I have a major crush on Oliver, duh!" Lilly said as if this was obvious to the world.
"Ha!" Miley screamed into the phone, practically knocking Lilly of the couch. "So you admit it! Well I am coming over to help you decide what to wear" Miley said. What to wear?! Is this all she interested in? I am having a crisis here!
"Okay…" Lilly stated. Within five minutes Miley turned up at her front door. "Hey Miles, let's get to my closet…" Lilly said dully.
"Wait!" Miley exclaimed and took her by the arm. "Why did you agree to this date with Pat?"
"Because I wanted to make Oliver jealous and he is totally hot!" Lilly exclaimed grinning.
"Good enough reasons, you gotta look your best tomorrow!" Miley exclaimed.
"Let's go!" Lilly exclaimed suddenly pumped up.
"Did he say if it was going to be formal or not?" Miley asked.
"Yeah, he said it was a club for teenagers. We are going to dance and have dinner there."
"Oh! Sounds nice, maybe me and Alex could double!" Miley asked, Alex was her boyfriend of three weeks and she was crazy about him.
"I'll call him." Lilly said and took out the phone number Pat had previously given her. She dialed the number into her cell phone. When a voice picked up. "Hey Pat?" He asked.
"Hey." He said obviously not sure of whom it was.
"Hey, it's Lilly" She said.
"Oh hey Lil!" She cringed at him calling her 'Lil' Oliver always called her that and no one else, well with the exception of Miley.
"Can my friend Miley and her boyfriend come with us tomorrow?"
"Yeah, the more the merrier!" He exclaimed, "What about the guy I saw you with at the vending machines today?" Oliver. She thought.
"Oh, that's Oliver he doesn't have a girlfriend." Lilly said, almost feeling sad for Oliver. He would be missing out on this and Lilly would much prefer if it were her, Miley, Alex, and Oliver going on the date not Pat instead of Oliver.
"Okay, see you tomorrow babe" Pat said and hung up the phone. Lilly too hung up the phone and turned to Miley.
"You're in" She said. "He called me babe, and Lil" Lilly said disgustedly.
"Great! And I'm sorry Lil, but why don't you go on the date having high expectations and if its bad, you'll have a reason to dump him" Miley shrugged and laughed a little.
"Ha-ha. Now let's go pick out clothes" Lilly said dragging Miley into her overly large closet. They spent the next half hour picking out clothes for the her and Miley stole a couple of things that she said she was going to wear to the date. When they were done they had picked out a black skirt, high top blue and black striped converses, a black tank top and a blue tank top to wear over the black one. She put in a blue and black striped headband and looked in the mirror. "Ewe…" She said, "Too much blue and black."
Miley laughed, "Alright, back to the closet…" this time they decided on the same black skirt, red and black converses and a tee-shirt with red and black stripes on it. "Perfect!" Miley screamed when she saw Lilly. "Now, for you're hair we are going too-"
"Add a touch of Lilly" Lilly finished. Miley shrugged, "I am going to do them in braids and pull the front part back, okay?" she pulled out her black hat and put it on, "And wear this, too."
"Lilly, you are going to blow him away!" Miley screamed.
"Yeah, if only that would work for Oliver too…" Lilly mumbled.
