Well Lilly is engaged to man of every girl's dreams. She hasn't met his best man until the end of this chapter. Let's just say it's an old friend. Well I'm not gonna spoil it for you, so read on.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

"Who knew planning a wedding would be so frustrating?" Lilly said sitting on the couch next to her best friend and maid of honor, Miley.

"Ugh, I know. And I think being the maid of honor is worse than being the bride," Miley said.

"Sure it is," Lilly said sarcastically rolling her eyes.

"It is. Remember, I've been a bride, and you have been a maid of honor. The maid of honor's job is so much harder than the bride's job," Miley said.

"Miley all you have to do is tag along with me when I go shopping for the wedding, help make decisions, and plan the bachorelette party," Lilly said.

"Yeah, but do you know how hard it is to help you make a decision?" Miley said.

Lilly laughed, "It is pretty hard for me to make a decision. There's so many!"

"Yeah," Miley said in 'you just now realized that' kind of voice.

"Ok, let's talk about something else," Lilly said. "This wedding is stressing me out."

"I hear you," Miley said.

"So has Johnny decided who his best man is yet?" Miley asked.

"Ugh, Miley, I thought we were gonna talk about something else other than the wedding," Lilly complained. "And he has. He hasn't said who yet. Johnny's going to introduce him to me and you tomorrow at Java Station around 9:00 in the morning."

"Did he give you any hints?"

"All he said was that he was his old college roommate. And I have no idea who his college roommate used to be."

"I hope he's a cutie and single because we have got to hook your bridesmaid Leah up. I'm so tired of her saying 'oh you're so lucky to have someone who loves you.' I swear, if I have to hear her moping again about how she can't get a boyfriend, I'm gonna…"

"Miley let's not be mean. She's my cousin," Lilly interrupted her before she could say what she was going to say. "Plus a wedding is one of the best places to look for single men."

Miley started bursting out into laughter, "You remember that one time at that one wedding we went to!"

"Oh and you remember that guy that with the tuxedo on…" Lilly said knowing exactly what Miley was talking about even though she wasn't specific on who, what, when, where, and why.

"I know! Ah, good times!" Miley said wiping some tears from her eyes from laughing so hard.

"Aahh!" Lilly screamed as someone behind her tickled her. She fell on the floor laughing.

"Stop!" Lilly yelled. The person tickling her stopped. "I swear it was a mistake giving you a copy of my key."

"Oh, come on Lilly. This is the only time I've ever snuck into your apartment and surprised you like that," her fiancée said helping her up at the same time trying to keep hidden what was behind his back.

"And it's the last you'll ever do that to Lilly Truscott, Mr. Jonathon Ivester," Lilly said smoothing out the wrinkles on her clothes.

"That's right because I'll just have to wait til' Lilly Ivester comes lives with me," Johnny said giving Lilly a peck on the lips.

"Well I have a feeling Mrs. Lilly Ivester isn't going to put up with it," Lilly said smiling. She noticed that something was behind Johnny's back. "What do you have behind your back?"

"Well I was skipping through a meadow. I just realized how gay that sounded, but anyways, I picked these for you," he said teasingly revealing the yellow daffodils that were behind his back. "And okay, I'm not going to lie with that humongous smile on your face. I bought them."

"Awe, they're beautiful Johnny," Lilly said taking them. "How'd you know daffodils were my favorite?"

"Because you said that they were on our first date, and I listen to you," he said smiling.

Johnny was about to kiss her on the lips until Miley had put one of her hands on Johnny's lips and her other hand on Lilly's lips, "Not while I'm here. Wait until I leave."

Lilly rolled her eyes. "You know you are so hypocritical. What about all those times you kiss Stephen while I'm in the same room?"

Miley was quiet for a little bit. "Alright, fine!"

Lilly giggled as Johnny wrapped her in his arms and began to kiss her. "Ugh, this is so disgusting to watch! Bye Lilly! Hey are you still spending the night at my house tonight?"

Lilly put a thumb up to tell Miley yes. As soon as Miley left, Johnny broke apart from Lilly's lips.

"You two are both twenty-six, she's married, has a six year old son and a four year old daughter, and you two still have slumber parties?"

Lilly laughed, "We made a promise when we were nine after our old friend Oliver used to tease us about having slumber parties. He never understood why girls had sleepovers. So just to bug him, we made this promise right in front of him that we would have slumber parties until we were old ladies. We didn't intend to keep it. We were just goofing around, trying to get on his nerves. We just kept inviting each other over to our places, and we would just sleep over. And we're still doing it today."

"Well I hate to do this to you, but I have to go. My lunch break is almost over, and I have to get back to work," Johnny said pointing to his watch.

"Alright, I'll see you later Johnny," Lilly said giving him a kiss on the cheek. He left her apartment.

Lilly went to the closet in the living room and pulled out some photo albums from the time when she was in middle school and high school. Talking about Oliver brought back a lot of memories that were playing in her mind. Lilly looked at the pictures in the photo album as she thought about Oliver and all the good times they had. She came across a picture that made her burst into laughter. Lilly and Oliver weren't smiling in this picture.

"Ah, home sweet home!" Fifteen year old Miley said as she walked into her beach condo with her dad and Jackson behind her. "I'm going to call Lilly, and see if she and Oliver are having fun at the Maroon 5 concert." She dialed Lilly's number. She was confused when she started hearing Lilly's phone ringing. "She must've left it here when she was watering our plants. I'll just call Oliver." She dialed Oliver number. She was even more confused when she heard Oliver's phone ringing. She followed the sound of Oliver's ringtone. She put her hand over her mouth to hold her guffaws in.

"Go ahead and laugh," Oliver said.

"Yeah, and know it's all because of Oliver," Lilly said with a frown on her face while crossing her arms.

"Hey Miley where did you put—" Jackson stopped as soon as he saw Lilly and Oliver glued in two chairs that were stuck together. "HAHAHA! This is great. Hold on let me go get my camera!"

"Great, not only do I miss the Maroon 5 concert, Jackson is going to show everyone this picture, and we won't be able to show our faces at Seaview High!" Lilly said. "This is all your fault."

"Geez, thanks for telling me that for the thousandth time!" Oliver said.

She turned the page and caught a glimpse of another picture of her and Miley making a silly face. For some reason, tears started sliding down her face. It was the day of the fight that caused Lilly and Oliver never to speak to each other again. Miley was trying to make her feel better by taking silly pictures.

Nineteen year old Lilly was walking with nineteen year old Miley to Rico's Shack.

"Hey Lilly let's go to the mall instead," Miley said grabbing her hand and trying to turn her around. She didn't want her best friend to see what she had just seen.

"Come on, Miley. I just want a smoothie from Rico's," Lilly said. She stopped dead in her tracks as soon as she saw her boyfriend Oliver. He wasn't alone, though. Ashley, the mean girl that always got on her and Miley's nerves, was there with her lips on Oliver's lips.

"OLIVER!" Lilly screamed so loud that everyone on the beach looked at her.

"Lilly this isn't how it looks," Oliver said trying to explain himself.

"What you weren't just kissing Ashley?" Lilly said.

"No I wasn't! She was kissing me," Oliver said.

"Well it didn't look like you were trying to stop her," Lilly said.

Oliver opened his mouth and was about to speak, but Lilly beat him to it, "Save it for someone who cares!"

She yanked Ashley's smoothie out of her hand and dumped it on Oliver and left the cup on his head. Then she ran off crying.

All of a sudden, Lilly was wishing she had let Oliver explained himself that day. Maybe Oliver and she would still be together. "No I can't be feeling remorse! I'm engaged to the man of every girl's dreams," Lilly said.

She slammed shut the photo album. She didn't want to reminisce any of those hurtful memories any longer.

She went to her room and started packing her clothes to spend the night with Miley. She grabbed a pair of jeans and a plain green t-shirt with short sleeves and a low v-neck. She grabbed a brown spaghetti strapped tanktop to wear under it. She grabbed a pair of black converse that had peace signs and the word peace in white thread all over the shoe. She then grabbed a pair of blue plaid pajama pants and a gray Malibu University t-shirt. She then grabbed her straightner, makeup, and other toiletries. Once she was done packing she grabbed her car keys and left her apartment to go to Miley's suburb house. She did her best to wipe the memories of Oliver from her mind. So she turned the radio on and an oldie by Hannah Montana was on: "I Got Nerve". She sung along with her best friend's song, quite badly at it also.

She pulled into Miley's driveway. She walked into Miley's house without knocking.

"Aunt Lilly!" Miley's six year old son, Chandler said.

"Hey Chandler! Where's your mom?" Lilly asked. He pointed toward the kitchen. She walked toward the kitchen. She saw Miley cooking something for dinner. "Hey Miley! What are you cooking?"

"Chicken alfredo," she answered.

"Yum sounds good," Lilly said with a sad face.

Miley noticed the sad face, "Hey is something wrong?"

"Do you ever wish you gave Jake a second chance?"

"I used to until I met Stephen. I can't explain it, but when I'm with Stephen nothing feels wrong. Everything just feels perfect," Miley said. "I'm sure you feel the same way when you're with Johnny."

"Yeah," Lilly said with a hint of hesitation in her voice. She had no idea what the hesitation was all about.

"Stephen, Chandler, Lauren dinner's ready," Miley yelled. Her husband came down and two kids came into the kitchen. "Lilly will you grab five plates?"

"Yeah," Lilly said. She went to the cabinets and got five plates to give to Miley. As soon as she gave them, she grabbed five glasses. She knew what everyone liked, so she poured sweet tea into all the glasses except for Lauren's, which she poured milk.

Once dinner was over, Miley and Lilly went to go rent a movie. They chose to get the movie The Lion King, so that the kids could watch it with them. They went to the gas station and got a box with four packs of popcorn and five bottles of coke. As soon as they got back to Miley's house, they made the popcorn and started watching the movie.

Miley cried during the movie. Lilly just rolled her eyes. Miley always was a big mushball. She quietly laughed when she saw some tears sliding down Stephen's eyes.

Once the movie was over, Miley said, "Alright Chandler, Lauren it's time to go to bed."

"Do we have to?" Chandler said complaining.

"Yes! It's way past your bedtime since your dad and I let you stayed up to watch this movie," Miley said clapping her hands.

"Oh ok! Come on Lauren. We've got to go to bed," Chandler said frowning.

Once Lauren and Chandler left the room, Stephen asked, "Well Miley, are you gonna come sleep with me, or are you gonna sleep in here with Lilly?"

"I'm gonna sleep in here with Lilly," Miley answered him. But then with a seductive smile, Miley said, "Its okay, I'll sleep with you tomorrow."

"You two are so perverted," Lilly said making an x with her arms to show that she was disgusted.

"Don't worry, Lilly. When you're married, it'll be like this," Miley said.

"Good night sweetie," Stephen said giving her a goodnight kiss.

Miley and Lilly stayed up till two in the morning talking. They soon crashed out. Lilly had luckily remembered to set her alarm on her cell. She had pressed the snooze button so many times that she didn't get up until they had ten minutes to get to the coffee shop that they promised Johnny they would meet.

"Oh no! Miley," Lilly said shaking her so she would wake up.

"Just five more minutes," Miley said in a sleepy voice.

"MILEY!" Lilly yelled to wake her up.

Miley shot right up, "What?"

"Look at the time!" Lilly said handing her cell phone.

"Sweet niblets! We have to be at the Java Station in less than ten minutes," she said getting out of her sleeping bag.

Miley put on her clothes and makeup. She didn't have time to do her hair so she just put it in a ponytail. Once she was done, she went to go brush her teeth. Lilly did the same.

Miley started her blue Yukon and drove out of her driveway. Lilly dialed Johnny's number and impatiently tapped her fingers waiting for him to answer.

"Hello," he said at the other end.

"Johnny, it's Lilly. Listen, Miley and I overslept, so we're gonna be a little late," Lilly said.

"You a little late?" Johnny playfully asked being a little sarcastic.

"Ha-ha," Lilly said. "We're gonna be there in about fifteen minutes."

"Okay," Johnny said. "Love you! See you in fifteen minutes."

"Love you too," Lilly said. "I'll see you in fifteen minutes." She hung up.

In fifteen minutes, they made it. "Let's not stay up till two again when we have to be somewhere early," Miley said.

"Agree," Lilly said laughing. "There's Johnny, and the guy with his back toward us must be his best man."

They walked over to where Johnny was.

"Hey sweetheart," he said kissing Lilly on the lips. "Hey Miley. They're here now. You can turn around. This is my best man---"

Lilly's and Miley's mouth was wide open as they saw the face that was staring right back at them with his mouth hung wide open.

"Oliver!" Lilly said surprised.

"Lilly!" Oliver said with the same reaction.

Uh-oh! What will happen between Lilly and Oliver? Lilly hates Oliver after what he did to her. Review please. Tell me what you think and give me any suggestions.
