Chapter Nine: Blister In The Sun
When Miley got Oliver's voicemail, she didn't really want to talk to him.
"It'd be good if you did, Miley." Lilly told her.
"Why?" Miley asked.
"Because Oliver really cares about you, and you should probably hear him out." Lilly explained.
Miley sighed, and placed her cellphone on the coffee table, but after several minutes of looking at it, she picked up, and speed-dialed Oliver's number.
"Hello?" came Oliver's voice on the other line.
"Oliver? It's Miley.." Miley replied.
"Can you come over?" Oliver asked.
"Well, I have Lilly over, and--"
"Miley, I really need to talk to you, okay?"
"Why can't you talk to me over the phone? Is it that important?" Miley asked, suddenly getting mad.
"Because...I don't want anyone to hear it but you. Please?" Oliver asked.
It was several moments before Miley responded.
"Okay, fine. I'll come over." Miley stated.
"Great...alright, well, I'll seeyou when you get here." Oliver replied.
"Right..seeyou." Miley responded, and she hung up.
Lilly looked at her with a concerned look on her face.
"Miley, why don't you want to go see Oliver? He's not Chad, you know." Lilly pointed out.
"I know, but..he and I are suppose to be fighting, and I feel weird that were not, and I sort of gotten used to it. Now..."
She sat on the couch, and Lilly joined her, wearing the same expression on her face.
"Yeah, it feels weird for me too. Why did start in the first place? I don't remember that." Lilly explained.
Miley shook her head.
"Me neither. I think it started when me and Jake were dating, or maybe now with Chad..."
"But, you guys fought before Chad came, so maybe it was Jake?" Lilly asked.
Miley placed a fallen strand of hair behind her ear, thinking about it.
Oliver never really showed any signs of jealousy, or signs of being mad when Miley talked about Jake in the past.
Actually, he liked Jake.
"But, he liked Jake. He was never mad or jealous or anything like that." Miley stated.
"Well, maybe you guys fight because there is no other way to show that you like each other? You know, alot of couples do that." Lilly reminded her.
"Yeah..."
Miley has always liked Oliver, ever since she moved from Nashville, but then she realized that they never get together, and just stay friends, which is why she liked Johnny, Jake, and Chad.
Now, she didn't know what to think.
"Well? Are you going over to his house or not?" Lilly asked, and Miley looked at her, and a smile played on her lips.
"Yes, I am, so stop asking me." Miley explained, shaking her head, grabbed her cellphone, and went up the stairs to tell her daddy that she was ready to go to Oliver's.
