When the night won't fall and the sun won't rise
And you see the best as you close your eyes
When you reach the top as you bottom out
But you understand what it's all about
Keely felt all her anger flood away as she heard Phil say she was beautiful. "What"
"I said, you're beautiful. And every time I looked at you, I knew that what I was about to say wasn't right. It wasn't perfect," Phil said, standing up.
Keely sat down on her bed. Phil sat next to her.
Nothing's ever what it seems
In your life or in your dreams
It don't make sense, what can you do
So I won't try making sense of you
She felt her eyes pricking up. Her tears were coming. "Why did you want it to be perfect?"
"Because it had to be like you," Phil said, taking her hand.
"But I'm not perfect," Keely whispered.
Phil lifted her head with his hand. "In my eyes you are."
She couldn't stop the tears now. They were flooding down her face. "That's the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me."
Love just is... whatever it may be
Love just is... you and me
Nothing less and nothing more
I don't know what I love you for... love just is
Keely wiped her eyes. "Phil. I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry. I hate Tanner. He kissed me, the creep. But then…you stormed out. And I knew you were hurting. But I couldn't see why. But then…you kissed Tara, and right in front of me. And I don't know…it just all became clear."
"What became clear?" Phil asked.
Keely looked up at him. "I love you Phil."
When you ask to stay and then disappear
It seems you're gone but you're really here
When every move seems out of place
But every kiss is filled with grace
"I love you too Keels," Phil said.
Their faces were getting closer. Their eyes were closing. Both knew what was coming next.
Some things never get defined
In your heart or in your mind
It don't make sense, what can you do
So I won't try making sense of you
"What's happening?" Via asked.
Seth gasped. "I can't hear anything. Why can't I hear anything?"
"The last thing he said was that she was beautiful. That was five minutes ago," Tia said.
Owen rolled his eyes. "God you guys. We all want to know what is going on."
He turned the key, and pushed open the door.
Don't ever ask me for reasons I can't get to you
Don't ever ask me for reasons
Why I live for you... I just do
I just do
"Oh…my…gosh!" Barb gasped, and then laughed.
Pim began to choke on her popcorn. "That is so disgusting. And I was eating!"
Some things never get defined
In your heart or in your mind
It don't make sense, what can you do
So I won't try making sense of you
Not caring that right now, all of America could see them, Phil and Keely kept kissing. Nothing mattered anymore. It was all okay. Even more than okay.
They finally broke apart, and Keely smiled. They both turned at the sound of cheering at the door, and laughed as they saw Tia and Owen hugging, and Via and Seth high-fiving.
"We were set up!" Phil said, trying to fake shock.
Keely gasped. "How long have you guys been there?"
"Okay, so when did you all guess?" Via asked.
Phil smiled. "You mean aside from the fact that you locked us in here?"
"Tug on the ear meant yell, right?" Keely looked back at Phil.
Phil nodded. "Yeah. And tap on the nose meant apologise sweetly?"
"So you put us through that huge argument?" Seth almost yelled.
Keely shook her head. "Nope. We heard you guys talking yesterday. Go Pheely, and all. So we decided to play along."
"We were arguing before that," Phil said. "But we left the kiss for you guys to see."
Keely laughed. "Let's just hope the cameras got it."
At this, Phil and Keely both looked up at the camera and waved. "Hey America!"
Two more chapters. I've written most of the next one, so that'll be up tonight. The one after it will be up tomorrow.
Hilary Duff - Love Just Is.
I hope you all got the twist. If you didn't it, doesn't really matter. Basically, what they're saying, is they heard Via and the others talking about getting them back together, and decided to play along. Even though they had already made up.
I don't own POTF. Unfortunately.
