"Miley, you look nervous!" said Lilly to Miley. They were at Miley's house, in the Hannah closet, getting ready for the Spring Fling. Johnny and Riley would pick them up there in only a few minutes.
"I am," said Miley. She wore a gorgeous red dress with silver designs, and Lilly was in a blue halter dress. "What am I supposed to say to a guy like Riley Moore? What if we don't have anything to talk about?"
"Don't worry," Lilly said. "You'll be fine. You're not still mad…are you?"
"No," said Miley softly. "Just sad. I…I really liked him Lilly."
"I'm sorry," whispered Lilly.
"It's OK," said Miley, regaining composure. "Whatever. I heard he asked Elizabeth anyways."
Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Miley and Lilly bounded downstairs to answer it. There stood Riley and Johnny, looking pretty hott in suits.
"Picture time," announced Jackson, walking into the kitchen.
"Jackoooon," sighed Robbie. "Last time I trusted you with the camera, we winded up with pictures of Miley's teeth and my feet."
"It'll be fine!" cried out Jackson.
Miley embarrassedly looked towards Riley. "Sorry. My family is so embarrassing."
"It's cool." He said, sounding bored. She looked over at Johnny and Lilly. Her best friend's eyes were shining as Johnny slipped a blue corsage onto her wrist. They looked so perfect, like a commercial for dresses or something. So naturally cute. She had no idea what to say when Riley put a red corsage on her wrist. She knew her eyes weren't shining like Lilly's. She pictured Oliver slipping a corsage on her wrist, which instantly put a smile on her face. That helped a little.
After standing for stiff pictures, they were off to the dance. It was so cool that Johnny Collins already had his license. Lilly and Johnny chatted about school and sports teams the whole way there, while after Riley lamely asked Miley how she was and Miley answered fine, she stared out the window. She imagined Oliver in the car with her. They'd be laughing and having an awesome time. Instead they sat like two foreign people on an arranged date.
The Spring Fling was dark and loud. Streamers hung from the ceiling, and a huge glittery banner read "Spring Fling 2006". Miley looked over and saw Oliver and Elizabeth, laughing and chatting.
Johnny pulled a giggling Lilly onto the dance floor.
"Well, come on," said Riley, as he pulled Miley out, too.
They danced for a while, but her heart wasn't in it. After about 20 minutes, Riley told Miley he had to go to the bathroom, but he'd be right back. He left her standing by the punch bowl, tired and bored.
"Cheer up, Miley," said Lilly, as she ran over to Miley. "Try and have fun!"
"I am," she said, putting on a fake smile.
Lilly laughed. "Come dance with me." She dragged Miley out onto the dance floor, where the Cha Cha Slide was going on.
Oliver looked out into the crowd. He saw Lilly and Miley cracking up, doing the cha cha slide. Elizabeth was off giggling and flipping her hair with her friends. Miley looked absolutely beautiful.
He sighed, got up, and wandered out into the hallway. He wasn't having any fun. He had planned on spending this night with Miley Stewert, the girl of his dreams.
All of a sudden, he heard a voice say, "The plan's going perfect. Thanks for helping us out."
He stuck his head into the janitor closet, where the voice was coming from, and couldn't believe his eyes.
Cliffhanger ending! Next chapter will be the end, but I'm considering making a sequal. I'd like a total of 30 reviews before I post again. Tell me what you think about a sequal! REVIEW!
