Yey I'm updating! So much has happened over the past weeks such as my birthday and school that I haven't had the chance to think of the next snippet!
How many of you bought Miley's new album, Can't Be Tamed, then? I have, and I have to say, it's not too bad. I love her cover of Poison's 'Every Rose Has It's Thorn', and 'Stay.'
This snippet is inspired by Oasis' amazing song 'Wonderwall.' It just came up on my iPod and I realised it would be a good choice of song. The backstory for this is from Hannah Montana: The Movie by the way, and there is a tiny weeny amount of Travis/Miley at the start. Don't worry though, it's still Liley overall :)

'Cause maybe, you're gonna be the one that saves me. And after all, you're my wonderwall.'
...
All time seemed to be at a standstill for me right now.
As Travis and I span round and round the revolving doors of Crowley Corners Town Hall, I couldn't hear anything but the thumping of my heart as I stared at him realising my secret was out. He was looking at me with my Hannah wig in hand with the widest eyes I'd ever seen. I'd lied to him and indirectly told him to ask me out...just another to add to the list of bad things I've done as Hannah Montana recently. The boy who'd captured part of my heart looked at me sympathetically for a millisecond, before the realisation sunk in and he tore his gaze away from me and walked out of the revolving door, back onto the street.
"Travis! Please let me explain." I cried out to him as he started walking away.
"Explain what? Are you making fun of me? Laughing at me? Lying to me this whole time?" He snapped, turning around to face me. It broke me in two to see the anger and hurt in his usually sparkling blue eyes. "I was honest with you! I told you how I felt..."
"And I feel the same way!" I said, tears trickling in my voice as I tried to plead with Travis. If only I could explain to him.
"No you don't, 'cause I would have never treated you like that. You know what Miley...Hannah...whoever you are? We're done."
He turned his back on me and sulked off down the street as I cried out to him.
"Travis! Travis, please!"
It was no use though. He'd gone and I'd lost my only chance for a serious relationship since Jake Ryan. I broke down right there by the entrance to the Hall. I let the tears I'd held back flow freely as Travis disappeared from my sight. Clutching the wig even harder, I just ran back inside, not caring who or what I bumped into.
One by one, my feet jumped up the steps I'd ran up and down so many times already within the past hour. Why had I turned into such a self absorbed bitch? Not once caring how Travis would feel about the whole Hannah situation. Leaving him sat in that Italian restaurant for so long while I was scampering back and forth.
Oh and don't get me started on how much I'd screwed up the Mayor's dinner. Of course I'd been too caught up in my selfish, cruel ways to give a hoot. I was laughing my head off as the whole scene turned into chaos because of a ferret. Did I ever offer to help? No I just saw my chance to leave and ran out the room. I can see what Daddy meant now about my ego.
I came to a halt on the second flight of stairs as I almost ran into Daddy himself. He must have seen the mascara smudged beneath my puffy eyes, because he was just about to walk down the remaining stairs separating us to give me a hug. Of course we were interrupted.
"Robby-Ray? Is that you down there?" Lorelai called out from the stairs above us.
I raced out of sight, but still within earshot of them.
"Not now Lorelai, I got some family stuff going on." Daddy barked at her. Wow that was quite harsh of him...I hope he doesn't ruin his chance with her. It's been so long since he dated anyone.
"Oh I'm sorry. It's just this whole evening was a disaster. I mean I organized the whole thing then that girl just comes in and ruins it. I don't care if she is here for a big concert."
I almost let out a sob as she said that. It just showed that I was right about me messing my and other people's lives up at the minute. Hannah was getting too big for her boots and I needed someone to save Miley from her.
"She's got a complicated life; I know it's hard to understand." Daddy reasoned.
I knew he'd defend my mistakes no matter how bad I'd acted. That in some way makes me feel even guiltier as he'd always clean up after my mess.
"What's going on Robby-Ray?" Lorelai let out a deep sigh; she wasn't going to drop the subject. "You know, I really don't have time for secrets and lies. And I don't think I can be happy with someone whose' so comfortable living in them."
Just fucking great. Way to go Miley, not only have you screwed up your own relationship, but now Daddy's as well. It's my entire fault; I'm such a bad daughter.
"Well you shouldn't have to be. I should have told you the truth. The truth is that… I just don't have any place in my life for a relationship right now. There's no room. Miley and me, we gotta sort through some things, she needs me and I kind of need to be there for her. I'm sorry."
I collapse my head into my arms and cry softly as to not make any noise. Sometimes I wish I never was Hannah Montana, and there would be none of this pain and heartbreak, or the lies. She's ruined my relationship, Daddy's relationship, and I very well almost lost the single most important person to me…my best friend. Oh Lilly, how I need you now.
As if she were some kind of mind reader, Lilly appeared from nowhere and on the stairs cradling me in her strong arms. Her head rested on the crown of mine as I buried my face deep into her neck, sobbing for Travis, for my Daddy and for myself. See even now I'm still being selfish. Lilly rubbed my back up and down, shushing me softly. It was only then that I felt the hairs stand up on the back of my neck, and the sparks between the two of this.
Out of everyone, I think I hurt Lilly the most. Over the past month I've been putting off and cancelling our 'Miley/Lilly time' such as shopping and sleepovers in favor of concerts outside of California, CD signings and more publicity outings. And then it was only two weeks ago that I completely ruined her Sweet Sixteen for her.
"Lilly," I choked, "h-how can you still be friends with me after everything I've done? Not just to you but everyone."
"It's simple Miley. I'm your best friend. I'll stick with you through thick and thin all because I love you."
The last three words made my heart flutter slightly. What was that?
"I've been such a crap friend though, I let Hannah overtake Miley. I've been mean, irrational, snobby, selfish and a complete diva. How can you not hate me Lils?"
"Well as I see it, all the roads in life we walk are winding. I think you just got a bit blinded by all the fame and got blinded from the right way."
"When did you get so smart?" I chuckled lightly, wrapping my own arms around her tightly.
"Ever since I got a 'B' in philosophy, Mr. Corelli said I could be the next Aristotle."
We stayed like this for a while. For once I wasn't Hannah; I was just plain old Miley who was sat with her beautiful blonde best friend, who I loved very much. I may have been dressed in her sparkly outfit, minus the wig, but sat here with Lilly made me feel grounded.
That's when I realized it was Lilly who would be the one to save me from all this drama. When I was with her, even as our alter-egos, she reminded me that underneath all the glam I was just a sixteen year old girl who went to school like everyone else. That' why I've got so caught up in it recently. Since I've blown her off so much she hasn't been able to stable me. I don't need Travis, I have everything I need right here in my arms. Boy was I stupid not to see the connection between us before.
"That's it." I mumbled into her neck.
"What's it?" Lilly asked, raising my chin to face her.
Our mouths were now inches away, all it would take was a twist of the head and they'd touch.
"You're the one who saves me. If it wasn't for you Lilly…" I trailed off and shook my head giggling. "…I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm in love with you."
Lilly grinned at my revelation and laughed which made my insides all fuzzy and warm. I stared deeply into the bright blue eyes and she did too. Words that needed be said were all done so through our eyes and hers at the minute were saying: 'I don't think anyone, not even Travis, feels the way I do about you now.'
That was all that needed to be said. I grasped her face, rubbing my thumb across her cheeks as I did so, and slowly leaned in until my lips grazed hers tenderly. It was quite a simple kiss, although minus the salty taste due to my tears it was incredible. As our lips molded together I shifted so that I was now sat in her lap as she placed her hands on my back trying to push me closer to her.
I knew that as long as I had Lilly, all the problems with Hannah, Daddy, Lorelai, Jackson and so on, would be solved. Even things between me and Travis would be improved; I needed to make the effort of gaining him as a friend again. Although right now kissing Lilly, she was making me think 'Travis who?' Just maybe, she's gonna be the one who saves me.
After all, she's my wonderwall.
Awwww I seriously can't get enough of Liley.
I always pictured in this scene that Miley would go running back to Lilly for a shoulder to cry on after her little breakdown. And is it me or was there not that much Liley in the movie? Apart from the "I thought I'd lost you forever" bit.
Feel free to tell me what you think xx :)
