Hey guys Okay, so this is a Loliver storyy..but there isn't a lot of loliver in this chapter, seeing as it's only the first chapter I REALLY appreciate reviews, and I also want to know if you think I should continue it….coz im really not sure about this one…so let me know XD thanks x
"What?!" I asked, genuinely surprised.
"That's right, Lils, Greg asked me to the prom!" Miley beamed.
"That's GREAT, Miles," I fake-smiled, maybe a little too enthusiastically.
"I know, right?! O-m-g, we so have to go dress shopping together!"
"Yeah, we so should!"
My heart secretly breaks inside. Great, that's another one of my friends who has got a date for the prom.
"…and it's so great, Lils, cause I have liked him for SO long!"
"Miley, I'm so happy for you! Now I just need to find a date!" I said, a little sadly.
Miley pulled me up from my seat and twirled me around. "Of COURSE you'll find a date! It's only a matter of time before someone asks you!"
"Miley, the prom is in a week exactly, and still no one has asked me. It's SO depressing!"
Miley gave me a hug. "Lils, you are stunning. Don't worry, all those boys probably think they aren't good enough for you and they are waiting for the right time to ask someone like you."
I smiled at Miley. She always knew how to make the best of a bad situation.
"Somehow I don't think so," I smiled wearily, "but thanks anyway, Miles. So we should go dress shopping so you can look amazing for Greg!"
Miley smiled. "Thanks, Lils. You're the best," she said, as she reached for another hug.
"Hey guys!" Oliver called as he walked into Miley's house. "What's going on?"
"Aw, I'm just telling Lily how Greg asked me to the prom!"
Oliver made his way over to us in the kitchen. "Oh, that is so cool! I asked the girl, Gemma, in my calculus class and she said yes! What about you, Lils?"
I groaned as I flopped down onto the sofa.
"I take that as 'I haven't been asked yet'?" I heard Oliver whisper to Miley. I guess that Miley nodded, and she came to sit beside me.
"Lily, don't worry. You'll be asked soon."
I took the pillow away from my face (which I had been groaning silently into for the past minute) and looked at her. "Miley, the prom is in 5 days. No one is going to ask me. It doesn't matter; I'll just stay home and watch soppy romantic films. I'll be fine…"
I was just over-reacting of course, but that thought that all my closest friends had all got dates for our prom just made me sad. I always thought I'd be ask, and it would be the most romantic night of my life…
"Oh, Lils, don't be ridiculous," Oliver continued as he sat down on the other side of me and put his arm around me. "You'll be asked and that's that. Now, let's watch this movie!"
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
The things Miley and Oliver had said to me had made me feel a lot better. But I still knew I wouldn't be asked to the stupid prom. I finally decided I wasn't going to stress myself out over it and that I would just take my mind off it by doing other fun things. As I was thinking of things to do this week, my mind wandered back to when we were watching the movie. Around about the middle of the movie, I was suddenly very aware of how close Oliver was sitting to me. I mean, Miley had been snuggled up to me but that was only because we were watching a horror movie. And Oliver does NOT get scared by scary movies. Maybe I was over-reacting but I was definitely feeling weird about this. Just certain things that Oliver did made me nervous. Well, not nervous as such but…aware.
Well done, Lily, I thought to myself, now you're going mad!
Suddenly, the front door opened. "Lily, honey, I'm home!"
That was my mom. In my opinion, she was the best mom in the world. I'm not gonna go all soppy here but, since the divorce, she has been so strong and she's just amazing.
"Hey, mom. Wow, what's with all the bags?!"
"Grocery shopping, sweetie." She struggled to close the door behind her. "Um, a little help would be appreciated!"
"Oh right," I laughed. I took some of the plastic bags from her and set them on the counter.
"Oh, and honey, I thought we'd go shopping tomorrow after school to get you a prom dress, seeing as you've been nagging me all month!" she chuckled.
My face dropped and I looked at my shoes. "Oh, thanks mom, but I don't think I'll be going to prom."
"Aw, honey, why not?"
"Oh, it's just…well…no ones asked me…" I said poignantly.
"Oh, honeyyyyy!" she pulled me in for a hug. "You are going to find someone amazing and you are going to go to that prom and dance the night away!"
"Yeah, but mom, that's never going to happen if no ones asks me…"
"You WILL get asked, I promise."
Never promise anything unless you can keep it.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
