So basically I got tagged twice and I decided… what they hey! It's fun! So, I guess I need to tag 5 more, right?

--

Here are the rules, first of all.

1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.

2. Turn on your music player and put it on random/shuffle.

3. Write a ficlet related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it's over. No lingering afterwards!

4. Do ten of these, then post them.

5. Tag five people to do it next.

My tagged are… (drum roll please)

All right. I don't know if this will be any better or worse than the other but regardless…

Enjoy!

I Know You Won't by Carrie Underwood

"Lily… not now. I'm busy! I'll call you later. Okay? Bye," Jake hung up before I got a chance to reply. My shoulders sagged inward as I placed the phone back in the cradle.

"Yeah. Later," I murmured. Later never came. Lately he seemed to be stuck at work more and more often. He called at midnight for a few seconds to tell me he was just going to catch a movie with the guys, but I knew better. All of the "guys" were married.

I knew he was cheating. I knew he lied to me every day. And I knew I accepted it way too willingly. Miley told me I needed to move on, but I couldn't. She doesn't understand why I just can't let him go.

I just sat there, staring at the phone, willing it to ring. As soon as I got up to go check my email, it rang. I ran over to it and picked it up way too eagerly.

"Hello?"

"Hello, this is Marsha from ATT. I'd like to offer you-" I hung up, exasperated. I knew he wouldn't call. I knew it.

But honestly, can you blame me for trying?

U Must Be by Gina Rene

The stars were so beautiful that night. They were like little twinkling sprinkles.

"Jake?" I whispered.

"Hmm," he responded as he flipped through the channels.

"You wanna go outside? And just dance?"

"What? Why?" His eyes were crinkled as he turned from the TV.

"Oh, just because. It's so amazing outside," I mumbled. He set down the remote, smiling.

"All right." I followed him out to the tiny porch and together we swayed. "Lily," he whispered into my hair.

"I love you so much," I replied.

"Lily, I don't know where I'd be without you," Jake murmured.

"I know. Me too." I let my eyelids flutter closed and rested my head on his shoulder. His collarbone pressed into my cheek and we moved back and forth to the quiet music below us composed to cars and horns. The apartment hadn't been my favorite, but it had somehow worked its way into my life. It was such a perfect compliment for my life.

Jake was the answer to my prayers. He made my life so perfect. He and I complimented each other so wonderfully. I knew it, in that moment, as we stood in the cool breeze, fit together magically.

Invisible by Taylor Swift

"Miley doesn't know how lucky she is," I said before sucking the last bits of pop out of my cup. I chewed on the straw and looked at Oliver. "You know what I'm saying?"

"Huh?" Oliver's face met mine with a blank look on it. I rolled my eyes.

"Just look at them. She's so oblivious to it." I watched as Miley and Jake walked towards us, Jake trailing a bit behind Miley's fast pace. She was grinning and he had this almost…reverant look on his face as he watched her curls flailing around.

"Hey guys!" Miley greeted. I smiled at her and sucked the straw again, getting that annoying gurgling sound due to the fact that only ice was left.

"Hey Oliver. Lily," Jake said a few moments later.

"Hi Jake!" I replied with too much sugar. "Tired of shopping yet?"

"No," came his response. "I love just spending time with Miley." I tried not to choke on the straw. They were too perfect.

Just So You Know by Jesse McCartney

I can't love him. He's my best friend's boyfriend.

But I can't help myself.

"Lily, can you help me pick out Miley's present?" That was all that he'd asked. And here I was, at the mall with the guy of my dreams, picking out an amazing bracelet for my best friend, the girl of his dreams.

"Do you mind if we measure the bracelet on your wrist? I'm not that great with this…you're about Miley's size, right?" Jake looked me up and down once. My heart fluttered and I felt that feeling come on again. That impulse.

"Jake…I-"

"Yeah, you're a little bigger than her. Okay. I guess I'll have to go with my gut instinct, then," Jake concluded as he turned from me. He'd just insulted me, and all I wanted to do was take him by the shoulders and tell him everything.

"Jake, I have to say something," I interrupted his thought. He turned, curious. "Jake…I love you. I always have. And I can't go on like this. Could you ever love me? Or is it always going to be Miley?"

Jake's mouth dropped open and he stared for a minute at me. His eyes trailed to my shoulder and he blinked before speaking.

The Way You Look Tonight by Frank Sinatra

It was so perfect. I'm not even exaggerating. I always knew my wedding day would be amazing, but this…this was beyond amazing. Try breathtaking.

"Now we'll have the bride and groom dance their first," my father announced. Jake took my hand and studied my wedding ring for a moment before smiling.

"Shall we?"

"We shall," I agreed.

We swayed on the floor, staring into each others eyes. "This is the best day of my life," Jake said as if he were revealing a huge secret. I giggled, crinkling my nose. "And I love the way you look when you giggle," he admitted.

"You've already got me married to you, Jake. There's no need to lather it on," I chided teasingly.

"Lather it on? I'm being completely honest. You look stunning."

"Well I would hope so. It took them like, three hours to do my hair," I laughed.

"It's beautiful," Jake said breathily before pulling me closer. "You take my breath away, Lily Ryan," he murmured into my curls. I squeezed his hand. "You're so beautiful."

Pressure by Paramore

"This is too much!" I screamed. "I can't do this anymore, Jake, it's too stressful!"

"Lily-"

"No, Jake. You don't understand. I can't take being stuck under the spotlight anymore. It's burning me."

"What are you saying?" Jake whispered, afraid to speak.

"I…I want to end things." The words slipped of my tongue no louder than a squeak. In fact, they were so quiet I was doubtful I even said them. The look on Jake's face assured me that I had.

"End…break up?"

"Yes, Jake. I want to break up. That's what ending things generally entails," I replied in an exasperated tone.

"But how am I supposed…supposed to go on without you?"

"You'll find someone, Jake," I encouraged him. "Jake, we aren't meant to be. We're better off like…like this."

Tell Her by Jesse McCartney

"Hey, have you seen Lily?" Jake asked. Oliver shook his head.

"Nah. Check the skate park?"

"Yeah… but I've got a premiere I've gotta go to tonight and I'm not gonna be able to see her at all."

"Oh," Oliver replied, going back to his popcorn.

"Could you…tell her she's amazing? And that I love her?" Oliver looked up, an eyebrow raised.

"Are you bull crapping me right now?"

"No…" Jake said slowly.

"You seriously want me to go tell her that crap? Why don't you just call her?"

"I have. But I just want her to know…please, Oliver?"

"Haven't you ever told her before?"

"Yeah…but it's really important. Please, Oliver? I'm already late for getting dressed." Oliver rolled his eyes and stuffed a handful of popcorn into his mouth, chewed, and then swallowed.

"Fine. But you owe me big time, Ryan."

"Thank you so much!" Jake ran off towards the limo waiting for him and Oliver rolled his eyes for the umpteenth time.

"Love makes you crazy. I'd never do anything stupid for a girl." Sarah walked past and smiled.

"Hey Oliver," she greeted.

"Hey Sarah!" he called back, tipping back in his chair trying to be suave before falling over.

Ocean Size Love by Leigh Nash

I knew it was stupid, dreaming about him. I couldn't help it. He was just so…perfect. I looked up at the clouds, and his face was suddenly there, smiling down at me. I blinked and kept my eyes squeezed shut, trying to imagine Jake standing right in front of me, telling me how much he loved me.

He shouldn't have left me hanging. He went to England without telling me where we stood as friends, and I hadn't heard from him in three weeks. All I had now were daydreams.

Daydreams aren't all bad. Jake's usually with me, in my head, as I sit on the sand and let the waves lap at my feet. But daydreams only go so far. The warmth on my shoulders wasn't his body, but the sun. The moisture on my lips wasn't his lips, but the spray of the ocean when a wave came crashing in. The breeze in my ear wasn't his breath as he spoke to me, but the cool Malibu air.

It's not my fault I fell for him. Anybody in their right mind would fall for him. And since I usually do things big, I fell for him big. Ocean-like. If that makes any sense at all.

I opened my eyes and squinted in the sun. Just a daydream.

Missing You by Tyler Hilton

"Lily," Miley prodded again, nudging me with her foot, "are you still thinking of Jake?" I frowned and pulled my knee away from her, turning the opposite way on the couch.

"No, and would you stop asking me?"

"Fine," Miley consented. I bit back tears as I rested my head against the back her couch. I was such a horrible liar. Why couldn't I just stop thinking of Jake?

"I don't regret it," I informed her shakily.

"Lily," Miley said softly. I felt the couch move and the next moment her hand was on my shoulder. "Lils, it's not good to bottle it all up. You've got to face it."

"I'm facing it," I insisted.

"Lils, do you miss him?"

"No! And I do not regret ending things either!"

"You sure?" I nodded and blinked, taking a moment to push the tears back. Instead, they slid out the corners of my eyes. I'd never been good at lying.

"Maybe just a little," I admitted.

Nothing New by Ashlee Simpson

I stared out the window as the rain pelted the car.

"It's not that you're stupid, Lily, you've just got your facts wrong," Jake explained patronizingly. "I wasn't flirting with her, I was discussing our upcoming movie."

"Oh," I said quietly. There was no reason to even say anything anymore. I was always wrong.

"Lily, you can't stay mad! You just always jump to conclusions!" Jake's voice was escalating as I sat there, waiting for the explosion. "And now you're just sitting there, quietly giving me the guilt trip? Grow up, Lily," he sneered. I stayed quiet, still. There was no point in even trying. I was never right. "The silent treatment isn't going to make you right!"

"Whatever." I muttered. I was so done.

Well… I knew the songs better this time. And it was little easier to figure out how to write in such a short course of time.

And, to be completely honest, I've never written Lake before (other than my last songfic game thing) but now, I think it's become my favorite couple. I dunno. Maybe!

What do you think? Was it okay?

Please review!
