Lily's Journal, Chapter 2

Well, I got home from school about an hour ago, and I have managed to complete none of my homework. That's probably because Miley called as soon as I got home. I had to go over her house immediately to listen to Hannah's new song. Her dad got it back from her producers on a CD, and he played it for the first time. It is called "If We Were a Movie." It's probably one of my favorite songs by her. Miley is so incredibly talented-I'm totally jealous. Well, I can't say that I'm not talented; skateboarding does count as a talent, I guess. I know Miley would never get on a skateboard in her life, so it does count for something.

So, now I am attempting to do some of my English homework, but the fact that I have to do a book on the first "Lord of the Rings" book isn't exactly all that intriguing. The fact that my crush on Jackson is growing and becoming more noticeable is intriguing. I don't know if I just realized today how noticeable it is, or if it actually got worse. All I know is Miley gave me a "what the heck" look at her house today, which has never happened because of my crush before.

When I went over to hear her new song, Jackson was there, too. Of course, he would be there-his little sister is Hannah Montana after all! When I got there, he was there sitting on the couch, and when I opened the door, he looked at me. As soon as he did, I froze like a water bottle in Antarctica. I stood there looking at him until Miley finally said "O.K. Time to break up the staring contest!" It was really embarrassing-she must know now. So much for being able to hide my feelings…..

I should probably go start my book report. I mean, it's due in three days, and I haven't even finished the book.

Sincerely, Drool Monkey,

Lily

Miley's Journal, Chapter 2

I just got off the phone with Lily-she was trying to avoid her book report. Everyone can be a little desperate sometimes when it comes to avoiding something, but she was WAY past desperate. She was practically begging! I got off the phone with her only after about a five minute conversation. My guess is that she is probably talking Oliver's ear off now. I would have stayed on longer, but I didn't feel like having conversation with her.

I KNOW she has a crush on Jackson. It was as clear as day at my house earlier. She was standing in the doorway staring at him. Now, when I say staring, I don't mean a little kid staring at a TV screen, I mean a dog staring at the boneless rib sitting on your dinner plate. She should have told me about it. Maybe if she would have I wouldn't be so disgusted right now. I seriously feel like I'm gonna be sick! I mean, my best friend has a crush on my brother. My disgusting, bad habit, brother. It makes me think of Lily as one of those girls who falls for him for no reason! Now, I probably can't invite her over anymore. The thing that is bothering me the most is….what does she see in him?

But, when my dad brought home that new Hannah song, I was so excited. I didn't have to listen to the same songs anymore! Seriously, "Best of Both Worlds" was starting to get overplayed on the radio! I can't wait for Oliver to hear it-when I called Lily to come over, he wasn't home. I think he said he had a dentist appointment. That's good for him, since he has been eating a lot of candy lately. Can you say cavities? I'll call him to come over later.

Well, I should probably start my homework. Hannah interview in two hours, and Lily isn't the only one with that book report!

Sincerely, Busy Bee,

Miley

Oliver's Journal, Chapter 2

Well, I thought that I wasn't going to write in this thing anymore, but it's the best way to get my feelings out without having to tell Miley or Lily. So basically, you can say that this is my anti-drug.

I just got home from Miley's house about 5 minutes ago. I didn't think I was going to be able to go over on a school night, but since my homework was done three hours ago, my mom let me go over. Miley (or should I say Hannah) had a new song on a CD and she wanted me to hear it. It was actually really nice-it was called "If We Were a Movie." It was a lot different from her other songs. It was slower, and the words were really thought out. Wait a minute….the words…. I just realized! The lyrics to her song say "If we were a movie you'd be the right guy and I'd be the best friend that you'd fall in love with…." What if she means me? It's a long shot, but you never know. I don't know if that is what they really mean, or if that is what I want them to mean. Either way I have to find out. But how? I can't just call and say "Hey Miley! I was just wondering if I was the dream guy in your new song" or else she would know something is up. Oh well, it's the risk I'm willing to take. I can't stand it anymore! Why must this journal make me do crazy and nerve-wracking things?

I just got off the phone with Miley. All I can say is one thing-I'm an idiot. I called her up, she answered her phone, and I just blurted it out.

"Am I the guy you talk about in your new song?"

Pauses

"Um….NO! Why do you ask?"

"Just wondering….Got to go, bye!"

See? Can you describe me in any other word than an idiot? She MUST know now! It's only a matter of time before she calls me back and asks me, "Is there something you aren't telling me?" Wow-that was creepy. Hold on, my phone is ringing.

I'll give you three guesses to who that just was, and if you guess Lily, then you obviously aren't a very good journal now, are you? It was Miley (so much for the guessing). Our conversation basically went like this.

"Oliver?"

"Yeah, I'm here."

"What was that about?"

"What was what about?"

"Why did you think you were the one I wrote about?"

"I don't know…I guess the fact that it said 'best friend' in the lyrics made me question it."

"Well, you should know that it isn't you, and the only person who will ever know who I wrote about in the song is Lily. I'm sorry if that concerned you."

"Ok…Thanks for clearing that up."

"You're welcome….I have to go…I have a book report to do…the fact that Frodo Baggins has a ring doesn't really interest me, but I have to read it. Bye!"

So Lily is the only one who knows……Well, not for long.

Sincerely, Your own personal Sherlock Holmes,

Oliver
