Thanks so much for all of the reviews. I want to hug all of you guys for your reviews. I had people saying, do they brake up? Does Lily die? and other ideas I've never even thought about. Dr. That Guy was first to review to chapter 13. Wow, am I really on chapter 14 already? This is the longest fic I've ever writen. anyways I started a new one. It's called Over My Head. It's a Hannah Montana-High School Musical crossover. Check it out. Anyways, five more reviews for chapter 15. Bold will be whatever I want to put in. Like an authors note.
Mileys P O V
"Jackson, what happened?" I asked.
"Lily wants to talk to you one more time," he said.
I knew I wouldn't get anything out of him so I just turned the corner and went into her room. Lily had tears going down her cheeks.
"Lil?" I asked.
"Hey Miley," she said.
"What's going on?" That's about the sixth time I've thought that today, and it's not quite noon.
"Jackson and I broke up," she said.
"Then why are you both crying? Wouldn't one of you be happy?"
"We could never be happy about it, but it works out for the best," she said.
"How does that work?" I asked.
"I can't go out with someone while my life is this hectic. I love Jackson, but I can't. We had to let each other go."
I paused, so shocked, and confused, I didn't know what to say. Lily must have seen my face.
"I said, I miss when I come over to your house, or just be Lily there. Now I have to be Jacksons girlfriend Lily there, and Mileys best friend Lily. I can't hang out with you at your house, because I'm hanging out with Jackson, and I don't want him to worry about me, with things like this," she said holding the I.V.
"Lily, I feel like it's all my fault," I apologized.
"Don't. Jackson and I both reallized that this is best."
I sighed. I guess I couldn't make her see what a big mistake this was. They'll end up back together. True love will always conquer, is what my mom used to say.
"Anyways, Jackson said you wanted to talk to me?" I said trying to hold back tears. I felt bad for Lily. This was a huge mistake.
"Yeah, I wanted to assure you I'll be out by tomorrow. I'll come over to your house whenever my parents let me. I don't know when that'll be, because I'll have to take it easy, and then celebrate my parents homecoming when they get back."
"Okay," I said.
"Please don't cry Miley," Lily said. "This was Jackson's and my decision."
"I know. But I feel so bad. You guys love each other and are going to end up together. You have to see what a big mistake this is."
"No Miley. You have to see that this is how it has to workout."
I pulled Lily in for a hug. I knew I should get going.
"I don't want to go home, but I know I should."
"How about this? You go home, get a real lunch, eat, and then you are welcome to come back."
"Okay. I'll be back around 1:30 if Jackson can give me a ride."
I got one last hug, wiped the tears away and went outside. I could hear Jackson smacking on gum before opening the door.
"Hey, I'm ready to go," I said.
He looked horrible. His eyes were red and swollen, and his face held about five tears at a time.
Silently, I picked up his keys, and gave them to him. I helped him up and we made our way out the door, into the car, and all the way home without saying a word. When we were walking up to the door, I asked him,"Can I go back after lunch, around 1:30?"
He nodded hesitantly. I made some macoroni and garlic cheese. Don't ask, it's his favorite. I even choked down some of the nasty stuff just to make him feel better. I tried not to cry in front of him. My best friend was in the hospital and somehow I felt like it was all my fault about their breakup. I also felt selfish. I shouldn't be crying. Then it looks like I'm just going for attention. I went to the bathroom and composed myself enough to get into car. Jackson called dad. He avoided long answers because he didn't want dad to know about him crying. I got in the car and we drove off. Jackson even came in the room because Lily said it was okay and we wouldn't be to girly. We watched t.v. for a while and talked and laughed. Even Jackson and Lily talked to each other. Things really turned around. I think Jackson will be okay after a while. Maybe even Lily. I'll place my next allowance on a bet saying that they get back together. After a while a knock came on the door.
"Come in," Lily tried to yell but couldn't really because of her surgery.
"Hey Lil," said Oliver when he came in. "Looks like a party."
"Yeah come on in," she invited.
"Yeah, um, there's something I have to tell you about earlier." He looked straight at me.
I incouraged him to go on through my eyes.
"Okay..."Lily said urging him to go on.
"I got here so early because my dad is here," he said.
"Oh so your dad works here? I thought he worked at Dunkin Donuts," said Lily.
"Lily," I calmed. I shook my head no.
"No, Lily, um, erm, my dad is here because he has cancer."
I know it was hard for Oliver to confess that. He really doesn't like attention unless it's from an intrested girl. He knew saying that would make people feel sorry for him.
"I'm sorry Oliver," Lily said.
"Is he going to be alright?" Jackson asked.
"Yeah, I think so," Oliver started. "We've known for quite some time, but I couldn't tell you about it."
"I understand," I said sticking up for him.
There was a long pause. I knew Oliver felt good to get it off his chest. He came and sat down next to me on the couch.
"I'm so glad you were here when I confessed that," he whispered.
I gave him a smile. I filled him on Jackson and Lily while they had there own conversation. Before I could keep track of time, my phone rang.
"Hello?" I said.
"Miley, it's dad," said dad on the other end.
"Yeah, whatcha need?" I asked.
"I need you and Jackson home as soon as possible."
"Why?"
"It's dinner time, and time to let Lily have a break," he said.
"Alright, we'll go," I said hanging up.
"We've gotta go," I said to Lily.
"Alright, thanks so much for coming."
"Yeah, what time do you leave tomorrow?"
"Around three ish."
"Okay then, we'll probably be here."
"Thanks for asking Miley," Jackson said smiling.
"What? If you don't drive us, then dad will drive me," I said. Oliver and Lily laughed and then I hugged Lily good bye before leaving.
When I got home we all ate dinner, in an unuaual silence. Then after clearing the dishes, Jackson spoke up.
"I'm going to take a walk on the beach," he said. Dad and I watched him leave.
"Alright now what in the hell is going on with Jackson?" dad asked when he left.
"He and Lily broke up," I said.
"Oh, I didn't know they were that serious," dad said.
"Yeah, they were really serious," I said.
Dad eyeballed me.
"Dad not that serious," I said assuringly.
That was awkward.
"Anyways, I bet money they'll get back together," I said.
"True love will always conquer," dad said before leaving. I sat on the couch and watched t.v. Jackson came in about forty minutes later. That was a long walk. I heard him go downstairs to go to bed. I lost track of time after watching t.v. for so long and at midnight decided to head upstairs so I could go to the hospital the next morning. I then reallized I should say good-night to Jackson after saying so to dad. I went to the top of the stairs and yelled, "Jackson!" but got no return. Fool, was probably listening to his ipod. Then when I stood there silently I heard a noise. I reallized it was Jackson smacking gum. It was at the very beautiful moment I got a plan.
yay for cliffies! Everybody loves cliffies! Actually I'm pretty sure you guys kind of hate cliffies. I don't think one was as bad as the others though? Do you think so? Tell me in a review if you think it was as bad. Or tell me what you think the plan is. I already know what it's going to be so you won't give me any ideas to change the story line. five reviews everybody for this chapter!
