Chapter 3

After my little 'Yep, I love Miley' revelation things got weird. I loved her. Nobody would have picked it though. After the fight, as normal as things got, they were still as awkward as all fuck when it was just me and her.

Miley was convinced I hadn't entirely forgiven her. I was scared shitless. I still hadn't told Miley I was gay; I knew that if I did she would piece everything together. I figured there was no point in telling anyone about the 'Big Gay Lilly' revelation till I had found someone I wanted to spend time with.

I mean, I wasn't completely alone, I had Ollie; he was amazing with everything. I actually spent a lot of time crying to my self, wishing that I could just love Oliver. That I could be happy to spend the rest of my life with him. It didn't work though.

School was over. Life was just beginning. And I was lost.

So I did something about it.

Flashback

"Ya know? This should be me goin." Miley pouts "I'm the international pop star here."

"Jealous much?" I say, rolling my eyes

"Jealous nothing! I just can't believe you're deserting me!" Miley sobs and pushes me slightly "Do you get how much I'm gonna miss you?"

"Yeah" I say while pulling Miley into a hug "Probably about half as much as I'll miss you."

"Then simple, Stay! Or take me with you! C'mon!" Miley says, still gripping me tight.

"Nah, not that simple. I needa do this, Miles. Things aren't right with me at the moment, I needa re-group. It's only 6 months, I'll come back and we'll party." I say with a smile

"I know, but still, we've never been apart longer than a couple of months and even then we're on the phone every couple of hours." Miley says, stepping away from me slightly, crying.

I start to cry, realising how much I will miss her.

"I know, I know, but it'll be ok, I'll write all the time, and we'll chat constantly, plus, I'll bring you back presents."

"Fine. Go on, leave me, your flight has been open for ages now. Just, take care, yeah?" She says, hugging me briefly

"OK, you take care too." I step away a little "I love you, Miles, don't forget that." I say, as I kiss her forehead

I turn to walk away from Miley and she suddenly grabs my hand, staring at me intently for a second

"I love you too, Lils, always."

I smile briefly at Miley, as I reclaim my hand. I nod to her and make my way to the gates.

Australia Baby!!!!!!!!!

I landed in Australia at the start of their summer. I traveled for 5 months, stopping to see the attractions along the way. I was amazed at how different the place was. Is it wrong that I was expecting Kangaroo's and Crocodiles to be household pets? Don't get me wrong, I had my share of Australian wildlife, but it was nothing like I expected.

It was in Melbourne that everything changed. I landed a job part time for a telephone company based right in the city, and most weekends I went surfing down the Great Ocean Road. Bells Beach was amazing!!!!

I had settled down in Melbourne for 6 months when we decided to return home.

Yes we.

Her name is Jen. She has lived in Melbourne for 3 years, with her Dad. She was born and spent 16 years of her life in L.A. but decided to go spend some time with her Dad in Australia. We met in Brisbane while she was vacationing and we instantly clicked. We'd been dating for 7 months.

When I started talking about missing home and my friends and how I was considering going home soon, Jen said she'd come with me. She said that our time wasn't up yet, and that unless I tell her otherwise, she was coming too.

I was thrilled.

Flashback

I land at LAX and am hit with a burst of unusual cold weather. The cold in Australia is different, harsher, colder. I stop and smile for a second and it dawns on me; I'm home.

"Babe, I can't believe we left sunny Melbourne for dreary L.A. I got jipped." Jen says, pouting slightly.

I stop to face Jen and take a moment to let my eyes wash over her. She's roughly 5"7, with dark brown hair and green eyes, she's been surfing her entire life and has the body to go with it. She's way more femme than me; opting for skirts and dresses, where I am pants and jeans. I rake my hands through her shoulder length hair and bring my hand to rest on her cheek. I lean in after a moment and kiss her slowly.

"Hmm, OK, I guess I can handle it." She says, smiling slightly and pecking me on the lips again.

We walk towards my mom, Oliver and Miley. I instantly grip her hand tightly; a little nervous about what's to come. I make eye contact with Miley and her eyes drop slowly to our hands; her smile fades and it's replaced with a look of confusion.

We reach everyone and I'm assaulted with hugs and questions for a couple of minutes before everyone focuses on Jen.

"Right." I say, chuckling nervously "Everyone, this is Jen; my girlfriend…."

Jen was amazing. Through everything. She knew my past with Miley; we'd spent many a night talking about it. Jen came out to her parents when she was 15, so her support was amazing.

Mom handled everything better than I expected. I think a lot of that was to do with Jen though. She's the type of person you can't hate. She reads people so well and does anything in her power to make them feel at ease. By the end of our second week back home I was convinced Mom liked Jen more than me.

Ollie was, well, Ollie. He loved Jen from the moment he met her. He turned to me shortly after I came back and told me to 'Hold onto that one', saying he didn't believe that I could click with somebody as well as that. We both knew though, both knew the part he left off at the end. The part that haunted me. The words he nearly said... 'Besides Miley'.

That's all for now guys, thanks to all who have read and reviewed. Let me know what you think!
