Here's the longly awaited next chapter of What if? It's a short one I'm afraid, but I've been at school and stuff so it's hard to find time to update.
Hopefully it's not too bad though :) enjoy anyway!
What If? Chapter 4: Don't Wanna Be Torn
Lilly's POV
The ride back to Miley's was a bit awkward. Niether of us spoke too much, creating a deadly silence except for the humming of the engine. Tapping my hands on the steering wheel I let out a deep sigh, trying to keep my focus on the road and not on the girl next to me. I glanced over at Miley who was biting her lip, a nervous habit of hers. Getting sick of the lack of conversation I moved my left hand off the wheel and switched on the radio.
"How about a few tunes?" I spoke cheerfuly, flashing a smile at my best friend.
"Awesome." she replied timidly as my fingers worked the button trying to get a decent signal for our favourite station, KTeen Radio. Finally the signal became strong enough and the ending lines of Nickelback's Rockstar blasted through the speakers. Gary Green is such a legend of a DJ. Seriously what I'd give to go watch him do his thing, I'm pretty sure Oliver was mentioning getting a job there...hmm. Best thing about him though is that he plays a load of new songs by upcoming artists as well as popular ones like Lady GaGa.
"Okay listeners that was another classic by those Canadian rockers. Stay tuned as we have Leona Lewis and Boys Like Girls coming up, after this new track by teen pop sensation Hannah Montana!"
The guitar chords of Miley's song "Don't Wanna Be Torn" sounded out as we sped along the highway in darkness. I took a deep gulp of air as her sweet voice rang out, soothing me as we drove.
"Of all the songs to come on it had to be a Hannah one huh?" Miley said softly whilst laughing lightly at the irony.
"Yeah, but at least it's a song a like rather than some crappy Coldplay song."
"I thought you liked Coldplay? They wrote that song didn't they? Uh what was it called.....House of Cards!"
"You've got a bit confused there Miles, Radiohead performed that."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, well I think I would know. Afterall, Radiohead is my favourite band."
"Oh my bad."
There was more silence after that as we stopped talking. Why does it feel all strange and tingly when I talk to her? I mean recentley I can't help but just stare into those beautiful blue eyes and smile. She has such and effect on me that the other day when I stayed over at hers, the sight of her in a towel coming out of the shower made me weak in the knees. I love her as a best friend but I'm starting to think maybe as more. And that dance we shared, Jesus Christ. Shit and now we're gonna have this long talk after No Lilly! Get those thoughts out of your head! You can't like her like that! It's not right! Not natural! Think what mom would say!
"Lilly are you okay?"
Miley snapped me out of my thoughts and I realised I was gripping the steering wheel quite hard.
"Oh y-y-y-yeah. I'm good." I squeaked out.
'Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn
Don't wanna be torn'
Oh god, not only did the radio have to play the goddess that is Miley Stewart, but they had to go choose a song that suits my mood perfectly!
"I thought you said it was easy, listening to your heart..." Miley sang along with the words, looking directly at me. I slowed the car down and pulled into the Stewart's driveway. Turning off the engine, but leaving the radio on, I faced Miley and watched as she sang. It may have been a Hannah song, but it was Miley that was singing to me, not her alter-ego. She placed her hand on my thigh and I felt a sudden rush of heat all over me. The song ended on the radio and Miley turned it off whilst speaking the last lines "....So why am I breaking apart?"
We stared at each other taking in the other's features, drinking them in. It was only then that I realised how close our faces were and that we'd both leaned over towards the other.
"Ahem," I cleared my throat, moving my head away, "So what film are we going to watch?" Miley's face dropped and she looked slightly rejected. Damn. Smooth move Lilly.
"Well I've got American Pie 2, P.S. I Love You, or I rented out The Hangover from Blockbuster the other day. Your choice Lils."
"Hmm I reckon P.S. I Love You, I'm in a soppy mood for some reason."
"Yeah I would of never guessed. I guess since it's a tear-jerker I'm gonna have to use you as my teddy bear."
Eeeeeeeep! Stop flirting with me Miles! You're making this so much harder.
"W-w-what's wrong with Beary Bear?" I stuttered at, which Miley noticed. She smiled before seductively whispering in my ear, her lips inches away.
"Nothing, but you see I use him for scary movies. When it comes to romantic ones I need my Lilly Bear to cuddle up to."
Sweet Niblets Miley.
