A/N. Merry Christmas! I've wanted to write this for days and I've finally gotten it out in the open!

Of Posters and Trashbins

"Hey, I found this in the trash, can I have it?" Asked Lilly to Jackson as she walked in the house carrying something he realized to have been his.

"You go through our trash?" Jackson almost spat out the juice that was in his mouth.

"Why? You want it back?" She held the poster out in front of him.

"Maybe" he reached out his hand to snatch it but she pulled it away just in time.

"If you want it so badly why'd you throw it away then?"

"Because 'Hannah' did a particularly nice thing for me yesterday, but now I want it back."

"Just like that?"

"Of course, she spent three hours in the bathroom this morning. Give me it back."

Lilly looked at the defaced Hannah Montana poster, contemplating it. "No, I don't think so."

He grabbed it and they both had their hands on it trying to pull it to their side without ripping it. "Deface your own poster."

"I like this poster."

"Well it's mine."

They stared each other down, looking for weakness in each other. "Is that Oliver I see coming to the door?" Jackson asked, feigning surprise.

"I can stay here all day."

"You think I can't?"

"I heard there was a bikini contest at Rico's starting… right now."

"Nice try. If there was a bikini contest, I would have heard about it."

"Let go! You threw it out!"

"I was going to go out and get it later."

"Sure you were."

"I'll have you know I was." Jackson pulled on the poster a little harder.

"I'll have you know you weren't." Lilly responded, pulling on her side harder too.

"It's my poster"

"Is not. It's public property."

"I will find your weakness and exploit it!" He threatened dramatically.

"I'll tell your dad!"

He didn't give up though. He pulled harder. If it was up to him, no one would get the poster. She scrunched up her eyes. Nothing was intimidating him to give over the poster. A virtual light bulb went off over Lilly's head. She gripped the poster tighter, stepped forward and pressed her lips against his. It worked, he let go of his side of the poster in a moment of shock in the next moment she was out the door, waving it triumphantly.

Jackson clenched a fist and raised it at her.

"Tell Miley I'll be back after I've taken this back home!" she called.

"Oh yeah… I'll tell Miley all right." Jackson said after her, ready to call out his sister's name before he realized that if he told Miley he'd have to explain why he had a defaced picture of Hannah Montana up in his room in the first place. He sunk on the couch, admitting that Lilly had won… this round.
