Wow! Okay this is my awesome story The Vanished, LoL. It's not awesome yet... but anyways. I didn't really want to post, I'm kind of having a hard time with some of the stuff going on in my life. Plus I also got the wonderful news I'm skipping 8th grade math, and starting High School Math. Oh, joyous wonder... yeah.

But I owe this chapter to ya'll and I would like to make a dedication to cough Valx3 cough, see now that u've been coughed I bet u feel special.

C? I kno it's just got that affect.

Disclaimer: Okay, I used to have an account on this Harry Potter site, and when I'm being lazy I use a lot of chat speak. But anywho, one day this kid messaged me asking if I was like in the CIA because he was and he used shorthand chat speak like me or something. I was like What The Fudge? And you know what, even after that wonderful, very important story... I still don't own Hannah Montana.

But I do have a Mitchell Musso poster! Woooo!!

Here is numero 2! Pretty good for someone that takes French, eh? I know, trust me, I know.

Chapter 2 Every Time

"Hey Dad! Will you sign this?" Lilly asked, waving a permission slip in his face.

"What is it?" He asked calmly, sipping his coffee.

Lilly rolled her eyes. "A permission slip, we're going on a field trip,"

"To where, with whom?" Her dad asked. Angered Lilly groaned, he was only doing this because the longer he put it off, the longer he could wait to have to deal with it.

"I need it by today, we're going next week. With my homeroom Dad, my homeroom. We're going to some camp, all the way in Washington, It's a camping trip. Dad, it's just a camping trip with my homeroom." Lilly looked at him, she watched as he stared at his own fiddling thumbs. "Should I come back when you're not playing thumb-war with yourself?"

Her dad looked up, obviously tired of Lilly. Ever since her mom had been checked in to the hospital, her Dad had the never-ending responsibility, of worrying about her. "Lils, I don't know if this is a good time. Your mom is getting sicker, and need you to help out around the house, and-"

"But Dad! Everyone else is going!" Lilly argued. So what if her mom was sick, she'd never given Lilly the time of day anyway.

"Like who?" He crossed his arms, and leaned back in his chair.

"Like... Miley, Jake, and Oliver. And um... Sarah, you know Sarah, the girl from the hospital? And... Amber and Ashley-"

"I thought you didn't like them."

"They've changed." Yeah right, they've changed my ass. "Come on, Dad. It'll get me out of your hair!"

Her dad narrowed his eyes. "Please?" She pouted.

"Fine, turn around." Happy to oblige Lilly turned around, pulling her long blonde hair off her back. She let her Dad fill in the necessary blanks, and search for a back side, even though she had two minutes to get to the bus stop. He handed her the slip, and satisfied she smiled:

"Thanks so much, Daddy!" She grabbed her orange book bag, and raced towards the front door.

"Lilly! Slow down!" He yelled.

"Okay! Love you too Dad!" She shouted at him, already half way down the driveway.

"Love you too, Lilly Pad."

Lilly joined Sarah and Oliver at her bus stop. "Hey guys!" She said, out of breath.

"Hey Lilly! How are you? Are you going on the field trip? I convinced Mr. Corelli to charge an extra two dollars so we could donate to the Make A Wish Foundation, isn't that great?"

"Oh yeah, totally." Lilly said, unenthusiastically. "All I know is this better be fun, it cost a lot already."

"I know," Oliver agreed, "My mom made me pay half of it,"

"Ninety dollars is a lot of money," Sarah agreed. "Think of what we could do, if everyone donated that much to a charity. But I guess it's not really how much money they have, but that they have all the necessities. That's what's really important!"

"Of course, coming from Goody Two Pairs." Oliver whispered in Lilly's ear. She admitted a small series of giggles, and seconds later was boarding the bus.

Oliver pulled her into his lap. "Hey,"

"Hey," she whispered back, their faces close. She leaned her head against his forehead. The butterflies bursting in her stomach. They were together now, so why wouldn't the darned shivers go away?

He pushed his lips against her cheek, he nibbled on her ear. Lilly melted under his touch, and let out a muffled chuckle.

"You know," He pulled away, "Going camping with you will be fun,"

"Oliver!" Lilly hissed, but settled in the arms wrapped around her waist.

Every time he held her, every time he touched her, every time her name escaped his lips, Lilly knew for certain he was the one. And she fell in love with him all over again.
