Ch. 7

The palm trees seemed to be so high in the sky that an airplane could hit it. Miley was amazed how pretty nature could be.

"I should really get some of my concerts to be over here!" Miley said to Lily and Oliver. "I would bring you two!" Lily's face lit up and reached over Oliver to hug Miley.

"Okay everybody. We are here!" Robbie pulled the car up to the front doors and popped open the trunk for the bellboy to take their suitcases up to the rooms. Miley, Lily and Oliver stepped

out of the car and stretched. Oliver was staring at Miley until the trunk slammed shut. Oliver jumped and Miley looked at him, giggling.

Everyone took the elevator up to the top floor and found their rooms. Miley and Lily ran excitedly to room 513 and swiped the keycard through the lock. It opened and two laughing girls ran

inside and shut the door. Robbie, Jackson and Oliver walked over to room 514 and unlocked the door. Everyone was getting unpacked when Lily unleashed the first part of her plan.

"Uh, Miley. I was thinking, you booked us horseback riding along the beach, right? Well can we go today, around, oh, lets say, sunset?" Lily batted he eyelids and smiled.

"Really? Sunset? Why so late? I figured we could-" Miley had Lily's pointer finger pressed to her lips.

"No! Sunsets in Hawaii are supposed to be so amazing, and what a better way to soak up their amazing-ness than on a horse!" Lily threw her arms in the air in a pose.

"Oh. Okay. Sure, sunset. Let's go tell Oliver!" Miley ran out the door and knocked three times on Oliver's door. "Oliver! Get out here!" Miley pounded on the door. No one answered or

opened the door. Miley was getting worried. Lily pounded even harder when the door opened, but the person inside wasn't Oliver, Jackson or Robbie. It was a very cute, blonde surfer who

introduced himself as Ricky.

"Hey, Ricky. Wanna come horseback riding with me and my friends tonight? Its on the beach at sunset." Miley asked him.

"Oh, definitely! I hear the sunsets here are supposed to be awesome!" Ricky put his hand in the air, waiting to receive a high five from Miley. Miley thought a high five with a stranger was stupid,

but fell victim to Ricky's cuteness and high-fived him gently. She looked to Lily for her reaction to Ricky, but she was gone.

In the men's hotel room, clothes were everywhere, despite the fact that they had basically just arrived. Oliver was on one bed, Jackson on the other, and Robbie was sitting on the couch. All

three "men" were watching women's beach volleyball and completely into it until they heard a knock at their door. Robbie and Jackson ignored it.

"Isn't someone going to get that?" Oliver asked.

"Yes. Youngest one gets it." Jackson said, his eyes still glued to the television.

Oliver sighed and answered it. He saw Lily with a strange look on her face.

"Hey Lily, what's up?"

"Okay, Oliver, shut the door. Okay good. Listen, you HAVE to tell Miley you like her before we leave! If you don't, you might never have a chance with her!"

"Wait, how did you find out that I liked her? And why wont I have a chance? What are you talking about?" Oliver stared at Lily waiting for an answer.

Lily explained how Miley met Ricky and how he was one cute surfer and how he would be horseback riding with them. Oliver's expression went sour and he clenched his fists together.

"Ricky's going down!" Oliver said in his most manly voice.

Later, Miley changed into a more comfortable outfit for horseback riding. She put on a pink terry-cloth pair of capris and a sky blue camisole. With her slightly curled hair in a high ponytail, she

was ready to go. Lily walked out of the bathroom wearing a yellow t-shirt that had waves on it and had the words "Surfer Girl" in big, shiny blue letters in the middle, a denim ruffled skirt which

came to the middle of her thighs, yellow flip-flops and her blonde hair now scrunched.

"Wow Lily! You look really good! But, you do know we're going horseback riding, not to a fancy restaurant, right?"

The two girls met up with Oliver next door and then walked to the room where Ricky was staying. Miley knew why she had gone to the wrong door the first time- her and Ricky were meant to

be. Okay, well the real reason was because instead of going to 514, she went to 512, which was on the other side of Miley's room.

Soon, the four teenagers were headed down the elevator and walking out to the stables. Miley picked a white horse; Oliver chose a gray one, Lily picked a tan one and Ricky had a black one.

They rode the horses slowly down the shoreline as the sun painted the sky with reds, pinks, purples, and blues. They all stopped after about ten minutes and sat on the sand.

"Oliver!" Lily hissed through her teeth. "Ask Miley to walk with you!"

"Oh! Right! Um…" Oliver cleared his throat. "Miley, could you um, come take a walk with me?" Oliver asked nervously.

"Sure Oliver!" Miley stood up and started to walk with Oliver. The walked along the beach back and forth for a half an hour. They just talked about anything that came to their mind, and Miley

had a lot of fun. She thought that after meeting Ricky she would surely ask Ricky out, but now she was thinking that she might have feelings for Oliver again.

Oliver loved making Miley laugh. She was so pretty when she smiled and threw her head back and giggled. He was about to ask her out when Miley began to talk.

"Oliver…I'm having a great time with you. And, I'm having a party for Hannah Montana when we go back home. And, it's a bring-a-date party…So, I was wondering…"

Sorry for leaving you like this! Don't worry, you'll find out what happens in the next chapter! I picked a band for the plot, but it wasn't a band anyone suggested. Please review!
