CHAPTER 2: I'M SORRY

Time: 11:05am

A.K.A. Lunch

I saw Lilly and Oliver, but no Miley. Maybe she isn't over it… I mean she's managed to avoid me 1st and 2nd period today and there's only 2 more periods left in the day. This is mass chaos…

"Hey everyone, I gotta talk with Lilly and Oliver so uh…can we have a moment of space? I'd love it if I could."

Thank goodness no one wanted to argue.

"Hey Jake" Lilly said, "What's up?"

"Well, what's up is: Why are you guys and Miley avoiding me? I thought things were okay when I left? What did I do something wrong?" I asked in a loud, yet soft enough voice.

"Whoa, Whoa, Whoa buddy. One: No one's avoiding you not that I know of and Two: have you ever tried to push through a crowd of about 1,000,000 people to get a chance to talk with the famous you?" Oliver said.

"Annnd besides that, how many times have you called or contacted us in some way?" Lilly added.

I started to sit down. "Well first off, have you ever tried to call from Romania? It takes like forever to just get connected and I didn't have enough time to turn on a computer and email. It was really hectic while I was there… and having a girlfriend takes a lot of dedication and most of your time FYI. OH and why haven't I seen Miley all day if 'no one's avoiding' me?"

"Miley's…on ah…uh-family vacation thing. She's coming back tomorrow. Anyways we're sorry for any confusion and not trying harder to talk to you," Lilly responded a bit sarcastically.

"Sorry for blowing up on you guys. So how have things been going on here in Malibu?"

"Good, Good…yeah nothin' much." Oliver said. Yeah that sure helped me see how much has changed.

"Jakey are you done talking to those…" Amber stared and continued, "People?" She obviously didn't want to sound mean while I was around.

"Well people are waiting. I'll talk to you guys later." Jake said as he went off and a mass of girls appeared from no where and crowded around him.

Back to Lilly…

The lunch bell rang and Ol and I went different ways. I headed for algebra when Johnny Collins walked by. That guy is totally hot… I only wish he'd talk to me. But sometimes I think it'd be awkward if I went out with him because of Matt. Yes Matt the guy who only liked me because I was his "cool-skater-chick girl." I mean sure I like skating, surfing, and basically all sports known to man kind… but I am a girl…. So if I act like a girl he should accept me for acting like one because I am right? Okay right now I wish Miley were here so I wouldn't be thinking in my head… it's way too confusing.
