Hey guys. Sorry that this one is short. If you have any ideas for how I can end this, I would really like to know. I have an idea, but it's probably not very good. Also, thanks so much for all the reviews.

Lilly's POV

I'm going to do it. This time, I'm going to follow my heart, not my head. This

time, I'm going to follow through and not give into the fear that's been holding me back

all these years. I'm going to take the risk of losing him forever. He could get

uncomfortable around me and never talk to me again. He could say that he feels the same

way. Or he could do what I've been so afraid if—reject me. But I have to risk it all. I

have to tell him.

General POV

The last day of school, at least, for Oliver. Oliver went through his classes as if in

a stupor, letting nothing penetrate his thoughts, except, of course, for Lilly. Although he

acted somewhat normal on the outside, he was a complete mess on the inside.

All through last period, Oliver could only think of Lilly. Her long, beautiful hair

and soft, trusting eyes mesmerized him. He could sit and dream about her forever, but

the thought that he was leaving the next day still lingered around his mind, bringing a

sadness like he had never known. So, by the time the bell rang for the last time that day,

his emotions were a tangled mess.

"Oliver, I'm really sorry about this, but I've got a Hannah thing tonight, so I

won't see you until tomorrow. I was really hoping to spend some time with you today,

but I just can't do it," Miley broke through his thoughts as Miley, Lilly, and Oliver stood

by their lockers after school.

"It's okay, Miley," he said. "I understand. I'll see you tomorrow."

Miley then grabbed her books and headed for the door. Oliver looked at Lilly

sadly.

"Are you going with Miley tonight?" he asked.

Lilly shook her head with her eyes down. Although he was surprised, Oliver said

nothing as they got their skateboards and headed for Oliver's house so he could finish

packing.

Neither of them had said a word to each other by the time they reached his house.

Oliver got off his skateboard and said, "Well, I guess I'll see you tomorrow."

"Actually . . . I have a dentist appointment tomorrow," Lilly lied. She didn't want

to actually see him leave.

Oliver spun around. "You're not going to be there?"

Lilly didn't answer, and an awkward silence followed.

After a couple of minutes of both of them fidgeting around and avoiding the

inevitable, Oliver finally broke the silence and said, "So. I guess this is goodbye

then."

Lilly looked up with tears in her eyes and hugged him. They stood hugging each

other for a few minutes, neither wanting to let go, and both hearts breaking.

When the tears that had been threatening to spill over finally streamed down her

face, Lilly swallowed the colossal lump in her throat and whispered almost inaudibly,

"Goodbye, Oliver." She then slipped a piece of paper into his hand and ran away.

Trying to swallow back tears of his own, Oliver read the front of the folded piece

of paper, which said, "Please don't read until after you've left." Though he desperately

wanted to know what was in it, he put it in his pocket. For now.
