A/N: Sorry Readers, I've been extremely busy with school work, tests and assignments, but here's the next chapter of the story.

AGAIN, review please!! LOLIVER 4 EVA!!

Chapter Two: The Surfing Competition and Back-ups

After what seemed like a long day at school, it finally ended. I was psyched to work on the video project with Lilly. It was going to be awesome.

I made my way to the front entrance of the school till' I heard a voice calling me from behind. I turned around and saw Jackson waving at me.

"Hey Oliver," he said happily. "Are you coming to check me out in the surf competition? I think I'm in love with Fridays"

"I never knew you were entering the competition. But, I'll be there anyway. I'm working on a video project with Lilly. It's due on Monday so we have the whole weekend to work on it."

"Some quality time with the lady," he said while nudging me in the arm. "You know, you should make two videos. One of me in my bathing suit winning the surf competition…. and make sure to show it to all your lady friends by the way…..And the second video or the 'back-up' for Lilly expressing your undying love for her, eh?"

"Strangely enough….that's brilliant Jackson." Who ever knew that Jackson would be brilliant? I thought. I strode off gleefully outside the school just to see Lilly once again drooling over Josh Fawkes.

"Hey Lilly, are you ready to go to the beach?" I said while approaching her.

"Huh...Oh yeah" We began walking out of the car park, with Lilly's eyes still averted on Josh. Then suddenly, CLANK. By that sound I could tell that Lilly had walked into a car post. I was an expert in running into things and falling off chairs. Trust me; I've done it many times while staring at Lilly.

"Lilly, are you ok?" I said while kneeling onto the ground, beside her. "What's your name?" I could tell she was dizzy because she tried reaching for my face, but instead was pointing 2 inches towards the left, where the teachers were staring at us.

She lifted her head up a little bit and was glaring at me, as though she was seeing me in a different light. "I'm fine Oliver. My name's Lilly Truscott. And Oliver, I have never told you this before, but I like your eyes."

"Well, you'll like them a whole lot better if I'm not worrying over you." I could have told her how much I loved her smile, but she probably won't remember anything. "Do you want to go the beach now? We have half an hour to get there, and get ready."

"Alright, just help me up." She said quickly and jumping behind me. I could tell she was embarrassed 'cause she tried hiding her head under my shirt, which I didn't really mind.

After 5 minutes of walking and Lilly avoiding from being seen by people from our school, we finally arrived at the beach. It was a nice and sunny day, perfect for shooting a small movie.

Jackson was flexing his muscles and showing off to some of Malibu's prettiest girls. He better hope that he's as good as he says he is. I was taping a video of the contestants until I came to the final one. It was Josh. He was around his usual crowd of girls.

"OMG, Josh is competing. Please, tell me he's going to take his shirt off." And conveniently he did. Lilly began wolf-whistling, until he turned around and saw that it was Lilly whistling.

"Hey Lilly" he said in that dreamy voice of his. It was sickening.

"OMG, Oliver are you filming this."

Shoot. I filmed all of this. I forgot I had the camera in my hands. "Uh….."

"Delete it, get rid of it, destroy it……anything……..PLEASE." She said while shaking the camera hysterically.

"Ok, ok Lilly. I'll do my best to edit it when I get home. You know, you never say the best things in front of the camera. Remember the Principal's farewell?"

"Yeah, I told him that he didn't look a day over 80, but he was really 60-something." She said this while laughing and with pleasure, then began to blush furiously.

The competition began. Both me and Lilly were directing where the camera should be looking at. This was the best day of my life. A couple of times mine and Lilly's arms brushed against each other, which sent goose bumps all around my body. I wonder if she gets goose bumps too when she touches me. I thought.

I went over to Rico's and brought both me and Lilly a hotdog while she was talking to a person I couldn't see. I grabbed the hotdogs and went over to Lilly just to see Josh rubbing her forehead then giving her a kiss on the cheek.

Lilly looked SO happy and I knew that she would never be that happy if I were to ever kiss her on the cheek. I chucked my hotdog on the ground and strode over to her.

"Here," I said while thrusting the video camera and her hotdog at her.

She grabbed both the video camera and the hotdog off me happily. "Oh, Oliver that's sweet you brought me a hotdog, but I didn't even ask for –"

"You can pack up the video camera and drop it off at my house later, after you finished with your yuk-fest, so I can edit it." I sounded extremely jealous. Surely, she would have figured it out by now that I loved her.

"Oliver…." I heard her say. But I didn't bother to turn around.

My house was like a 30 second run to the beach, so I arrived there in no time. As I entered the house I began to run upstairs, until I heard my mother call.

"Oliver…..how was your day Honey? Dinner will be ready in five minutes."

"My day was fine, Mum. But I had a hotdog at Rico's before I came here, so…I'm not hungry." I'm always hungry. So it was quite of a shock to both my mum and myself that I actually said that.

I rushed up to my room, slammed the door and dived onto my very comfy bed. Then I did something that I haven't done for a while……cry. It was very rare for me to cry, but it was a good stress relief.

I made my way over to the computer and decided to make the video Jackson suggested for Lilly.

How could I be mad at Lilly? I thought. She did nothing wrong. Maybe if she knew how I felt about her, she wouldn't let Josh kiss her on the cheek.

I set up the camera next to my window on a stand so that the lighting would be good. And I began to speak of how much I loved Lilly (A/N: Later on in the story you'll hear what he had to say)

After I finished it I placed the disc on my bench and was planning on the perfect way on giving it to her. Maybe I'll put it in her locker? I thought. While figuring out a way to give it to her, I decided it would have to be after the video project presentation.

After I finished my video for Lilly I began to sulk in my room waiting for Lilly to drop off the video camera. I was planning on giving the video to Lilly after we present our video project. That way, I can go straight home after school, while Lilly and 'THAT JERK' laugh about it.

It had been an hour and a half since I came home. What was taking Lilly so long? I thought. She's probably enjoying herself making out with Josh. I just made myself sad.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door followed by a soft voice. "Oliver, its Lilly" I heard my mum say. I went over to the door and unlocked it. Lilly was standing in front with her head down; I could tell that this was extremely awkward and embarrassing for her.

"Can I come in?" She said with a soft voice and looking hopeful.

"Sure," I said while opening the door enough for her to come in. She went over to my desk and placed the video tape on my desk. I made my way over to my bed where we both sat in silence. If we were going to spend the rest of the afternoon in silence, then there was no point in her coming in my room.

"Here's the video Oliver. I saw it when I went to my house to change after the competition and I don't think it needs much editing, just a title and credits."

I took out the video and put it into my DVD player; you think that schools could buy more current and up-to-date equipment where you can edit the movie while the video was in the camera, but NO. We sat in silence while watching the video, and surprisingly Lilly was right the video looked as though it was already edited as it used good camera controls such as dolly and pan shots.

It took five minutes to add a title and credits on Windows Movie Maker, and the video was done. I ejected the disc out of the computer ands placed it on my bench.

"I don't understand something, Oliver." Big surprise; Lilly's either completely clueless at everything or is always delayed.

"What is it?" I asked afraid of what she'll say next.

"Umm… why did you get so upset when Josh kissed me on the cheek?"

"I wasn't upset….. I just had to come home early for dinner."

"Oh…..ok. Listen, since you did most of the filming, and adding the title and credits, I want to add my bit to the end of the film, ok?"

"Sure. That sounds cool…… And Lilly I'll always be your best friend, right?"

"I'll always be your best friend too….But can I take the camera and you can just edit my bit in later?"

"Alright," I said while walking her to the door.

"I'll give the camera back to you tomorrow with my bit….. But promise me you won't watch it. It's a surprise and I made it after you left. Pinky Promise." She held out her pinky and I shook it.

"See you tomorrow Oliver," she said while wearing that adorable smile.

"See Ya, Lil-lay" I went in the house happily and was jumping up and down. I couldn't figure out why though. Maybe it's because I'm no longer angry at Lilly, but why? She's probably dating Josh now. Stupid Brain, quit putting all these analogies in my head. I thought.

Tomorrow was a brand new day after all……..
