Chapter 4: Keeping Quiet
(Miley's POV)
Last night was strange. I can't believe Oliver likes me! He is going out with my best friend who is madly in love with him! The worst thing is I think I'm feeling things for Oliver too! All because of that kiss! Stupid Jackson! Making me feel things for Oliver!
"Miley? Are you okay?" Lilly said shaken me out of my day dream.
"What? Oh, eh, ye I'm fine."
"Miley, I have known you since I was nine, I know you're lying, tell me what's wrong."
"Nothing." Lie. Big lie.
"Miley, come on what's so bad that you can't tell me?"
"Lilly! Stop! There is nothing wrong with me!" I screamed walking down the street.
"Okay Miley, what ever you say."
"We still up for Friday?" I asked trying to make a conversation.
"Yeah, are we just going to your house for the night?"
"Yeah, me you and...O...Oliver" This was bad.
"Miley are you sure you're okay?"
"Fine...right so be at my house for about six."
"Are we staying over?"
"Yeah."
"Miley?"
"Yeah." Oh no, this doesn't sound so good.
"I think Oliver is going to break up with me."
I stopped still. Couldn't move a bit.
"Miley?"
"Why...why would you say that?"
"He isn't answering his phone and if I put my number on hide and he answers it he always makes and excuse not to talk to me and he is avoiding me in school and...Miley!"
"What?"
"I know you know something! Will you just tell me what's going on?!"
"I honestly do not know Lilly!" I lied again.
"Okay. If I find out you know something I am never talking to you again!"
"Lilly! Don't be silly!"
"So you do know something!"
"No I don't!"
"Miley, God I know you're lying!"
"Look I have to go Lilly, I'll see you tomorrow."
I walked away. Well practically ran. I knew Lilly was on to me. I had to talk to Oliver, and fast.
"Oliver!" I yelled as he picked up the phone.
"Miley? What's wrong?"
"Look where are you?"
"At the beach, why?"
"Look I really need to talk to you. I'll meet you at Rico's, like now."
"Em... Okay."
"Bye." I hung up and looked at the clock. It was ten to three. I shoved on a pair of sandals and ran down to the beach to see Oliver with Lilly sitting on the sand. Damn. She must have went straight to the beach after I went home to meet Oliver.
"Oh, hey Miley, so what's so important that you couldn't wait to tell me?"
"Yes, Miley what was so important that you couldn't wait to tell Oliver and not me?"
"Ehhh...You know what, never mind!"
"Hold on Miles." Oliver said grabbing my arm.
"Miley, will you just tell us what's wrong?" Lilly moaned.
"Well, um, it's not important anymore."
"Lilly, I'll be back in a minute." Oliver told her. He pulled me away from Lilly and we walked to 'Ricos Surf Shop'.
"Right, so what's wrong?"
"I thought you were avoiding Lilly."
"How do you know I was trying to avoid her?"
"Lilly does talk you know."
"Of course," He said, "So what's wrong."
"Look, are you going to break up with Lilly?"
"No, why?"
"Well know how that dare thing the other night?" Oliver started to blush.
"Wh...What about it?"
"Lilly knows something's up."
"What do you meen?"
"She is getting the feeling we are up to something."
"What has that to do with the other night?"
"You have been acting weird and I have been acting weird. She kept saying to me today 'I know you know something Miley, just tell me what is wrong.'"
"What did you say?"
"Nothing of course."
"Good, then there is nothing to worry about."
"You're right."
"Are you going to come sit with us?"
"Eh...I think Lilly is angry with me. I better not."
"Just come." He said and he grabbed my arm and pulled me to where Lilly was sitting. I awkwardly sat down beside her.
"Oh, you decide to join me?" Lilly said bitterly.
"Lilly." Oliver spoke giving her a glare.
"Lilly, why are you in a mood with me?" I asked.
"What makes you say that?" she replied stubbornly.
"Just a guess. Look I'm going to head. I can see I'm not wanted."
"Miley," Oliver began but I interrupted him.
"No Oliver! I'm going. I will see you both on Friday." I glared at Lilly and she just looked away trying not to make eye contact.
"We will both be there." Oliver said glaring over at Lilly.
