Fallin' For You
I remember the day I met Oliver, I was ten years old, and going to the fifth grade. I had moved from Tennessee to Malibu, and was the new girl in Sea View elementary school. I was walking down the halls, and I bumped into a perky little girl, with her blonde hair held back in a ponytail. We said sorry to each other, and she gave me a friendly smile. We looked each other up and down, she wore white sneakers, jeans, a blue T-shirt with a red jacket on top, and a base ball cap, with her ponytail sticking out of the hole. I wore flats, a jean skirt, a pink t-shirt, and my hair in soft curls. We admired each other's fashion choices, and we introduced ourselves. "My name is Lilly Truscott, and I'm in Ms.Burblebee's fifth grade class, are you new?" I replied "Yes, I'm new, from Tennessee, my name is Miley, and I have the same teacher as you."
Lilly took my hand and guided me to our classroom, we both took seats next to each other. A boy with chocolate brown hair, and dark brown eyes sat next to Lilly. I stared at him, he was cute, and as he talked to Lilly, I noticed his smile, his adorable smile. He turned to me, he raised one eyebrow and said "Who are you?" Lilly turned to me, then back at him and said "Oh this is Miley, she's from Tennessee. Miley this is Oliver, my best friend." Oliver stared at me with a look of disgust, then he said "My brother told me people from Tennessee eat possum, do you eat possum?" I shook my head, saying no. "I bet you do eat possum, I bet your lying to me" Oliver turned to the boy behind him and said "That girl is Miley, she eats possum, she's weird." Then the boy began passing it on, until everyone was whispering to each other about how I ate possum. They all turned to me, with a face of disgust, and then turned their heads. Lilly turned to me, and mouthed sorry.
I remember running out of the classroom, to the bathroom, and then locking myself in one of the stalls, and I began crying. After a few minutes I heard a knock on the door of the bathroom, I didn't come out to open it. "Miley, are you in there?" I heard, I figured Ms.Burblebee would come. So I came out and opened the door, only to find Oliver standing there with a sympathetic smile on his face. "I'm really sorry Miley, I like to eat raw hotdogs, see it's no big deal, lot's of people eat weird stuff." I smiled at him, wiping away a tear from my face. I remember him reaching out his hand and saying "We better get back to class, that way you can tell the whole class about how cool Tennessee is, and you can tell them I eat raw hotdogs." I took his hand, and we walked down the hallway, I remember how warm his hand felt, I remember it sending shocks of electricity up my arm. Then I began telling him about my life in Tennessee on our way there, he seemed to be enjoying my stories. Then we turned into the classroom, and he asked Ms.Burblebee "Would you mind if I said something to the class?" She nodded her head. He began talking, if I remember correctly he said "Miley is one of the coolest people I ever met, I'm not sure if she eats possum, but I don't care, in fact, if she does, one day I'll join her." He gave me a smile then continued "She told me tons of stories about her Uncle Earl, her Aunt Dolly, her whole family, and they sound totally cool to me. And I know, that she is definetly going to be my best friend!" I rushed up to hime and threw my arms around him, embracing him in a hug, he returned the hug, putting his arms around my waist.
Then we both sat down beside Lilly, and I turned to my new best friends, and it was at that moment that I realized I began falling for Oliver.
I hope you guys enjoyed it. It's only the first chapter of the story, I'm almost 100 percent sure that there will be eleven chapters, as i have been planning it in my notebook, ofcourse after i will most likely make a sequel, if I get a lot of reviews that is. For the next chapter to come up, im hoping for atleast ten reviews!
