Don't own anything except Nick Presby.
Oliver's Point of View
"Yo, Smokin' Oken ready to go to the beach!"
"Hey Oliver! You seem excited!" Lily said after I walked into Miley's living room.
"Yeah, it's been a while since us three have REALLY hung out. Where's Miley?"
"Well, I'm thinking she's still asleep."
Suddenly, Miley walks into the room, sees us. "AH!" she yelps and then runs back in her room.
"Guess she's not asleep anymore!" I said after Lily and I laughed a bit.
"Are you guys talking about me?" Miley said sarcastically as she walked into the room fully dressed, "Never mind. Let's go!"
--------
"Oh my! Is that Nick Presby? I thought he moved!" Lily says as we walk to the beach together.
"Looks like he's moved back to good ol' Malibu. Why don't you go talk to him? Before he left, I heard he had a little thing for you!" Miley told her.
"Are you saying that because it's true, or because you want Oliver all to yourself?"
"Both!"
"Nu uh! He really said he liked me?"
"Yeah, girl. Go for it!"
"Okay! You two can have your five minutes of privacy for today. But after that, I'll still be here."
I put my arm around Miley, "Wouldn't have it any other way, Lil."
Lily eyed us, "Oh. I think you would," she said before she winked and ran over to Nick.
"Very smooth tactic, Ms. Stewart," I told her before I pulled her in to give her a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Boy, is that all you got?" she said before she grabbed my face and kissed me straight on the lips.
"I guess it's not," I told her before we spent ,what seemed like, forever just laughing at each other.
"Although, I wouldn't want to break up this, obviously, humorous moment, guess who asked me out this weekend?" Lily said running up to us.
"Nick Presby?" Miley and I both asked in unison.
"Hey, how'd you know?" she asked.
We just laughed it off and spent the rest of the day at the beach.
--------
"Hey, guys. Don't forget, we have to pick out a movie tonight!" Lily reminded us while walking back to my house.
We walked into the video store and started our usual routine. We split up, Oliver took the front, I took the middle, Lily took the back, we get top three movies from our section, and pick three from all of our choices.
"Whatchu got?"
"Saw, The Silence of the Lambs, The Blair Witch Project."
"My Best Friend's Wedding, How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days, A Walk to Remember."
"Not Another Teen Movie, The Princess Bride, There's Something About Mary."
"Haha, of course. Oliver with the Scaries, Lily with the comedy, and me with the chick flicks," I pointed out.
"One of each?" asked Lily.
"Sounds good," Oliver replied.
----
"Hey, you guys want popcorn?" I asked from the kitchen.
"Let's have the works tonight! Popcorn, Ice Cream Sundaes, Chips, whatever else you can dig up in there! Bring it out!" Lily yelled while she got herself comfortable on the chair.
"Pace yourself, slugger! We got all night to get fat!" I yelled back.
"Miley, hurry up! We need to start these movies!" Oliver called at me.
"Almost done. 5...4..3...2..1.. BEEP BEEP BEEP!" I called back.
"What a dork!" I heard Lily tell Oliver.
"Hey! I heard that!" I said as I walked in with a bowl of popcorn, "Which one first?"
"You know, Miley, I've never seen Saw. Let's watch it!" Lily said while reaching for a handful of popcorn.
"Hey Oliver, Lily & I choose you to set up movies tonight. I already did snacks. Which means, I have to do snacks all night. Or else, the system is shattered. I don't know what Lily gets to do, but whatever job is left to do, we'll stick it to her later."
"Alright. I'll do it," Oliver said as he got up to stick the DVD into the player.
"You're a good man, Oliver," Lily said as she grabbed another handful of popcorn.
I took a seat on the couch and as soon as he was done, Oliver sat next to me and pressed "play".
-------
"How stupid is that? You can't cut through metal chains with that saw, but you can cut through solid bone? What was this psycho thinking?" Lily was saying as her eyes were completely fixed on the TV screen.
I couldn't even make myself look at that gory scene, I squeezed my head on Oliver's chest while his arm was around my waist.
"Okay, it's over," he said.
"Phew. Dude! I thought that guy was dead! So what? He's alive all of a sudden? How does that happen?" I yelled at the TV screen.
"Oh! I know! I was thinking the same thing!" Lily yelled back at me.
"Were you guys paying attention the last 10 minutes?" Oliver asked.
"If we said no, would you be mad?" I said while Lily and I made the cutest puppy dog faces. Oliver scoffs and manages to press a very sincere smile as we get ready for the next movie.
-------
Lily's POV.
"Okay, so this guy made a bet that he would make a girl fall in love with him. And this girl is writing a story and she's supposed to lose a guy. And they're together? So he's trying to make her love him, and she's trying to make him not love her? That's so sick. I mean, is love really worth all that trouble?" I say out loud.
"Uh huh."
"Sure is"
I look back to the couch and see Miley and Oliver totally staring at each other.
"Well, at that note, I will refill the popcorn bowl."
"No, wait. Lily, no. That's my job. I'm sorry. Sit and enjoy the movie. Please." Miley says as she gets off the couch and walks into the kitchen.
"So Oliver, is it serious between you and Miley?"
"I think so. I hope so. Yes?"
"Look, I'm really happy for you two. And other than those random, cute, flirty moments, I'm glad that we can all hang out like nothing's changed. So I just wanted to say that I don't want you guys keeping stuff from me, since we are all still best friends."
"Lily, you're still my bud. Always will be. Miley and I talked about it. No matter how serious it gets, we will always be best friends first, boyfriend and girlfriend second. You should never have to feel like a third wheel."
"I know. I don't. But if I do, I'll talk to both of you about it."
"Hey you guys, I think we're almost done with the popcorn. You guys ready for ice cream?" Miley called from the kitchen.
"Don't have to ask me twice!" Oliver called.
"Let me help you, Miley," I said as I walked to the kitchen.
