Birthday Wishes

"Jackson, what are you doing?" Miley asked as she came down the stairs. Her brother sat on the couch; a box in front of him and tissue paper scatted all around the room and a gold ribbon peeking out from underneath this mess.

"Nothing." He said, putting the lid on the box, trying to hide whatever it was from Miley.

"Whatever." She said and walked into the kitchen. Jackson watched her as she got a glass of water and went back upstairs. It was early Saturday morning on the 10th of March, Lilly Truscott's birthday. Lilly was Miley's best friend and Jackson's secret crush, but not for long. He was going to make this the best birthday that Lilly has ever had that she will agree to go out with him. His plan was perfect.

Only problem now was wrapping up her present. Jackson knew exactly what she wanted, but how to present it to her? He was going to wrap it but couldn't find wrapping paper that he liked. He found an old shoebox and had wrapped that up in blue tissue paper, trying to make it look more presentable.

"What am I doing?" Jackson asked out loud, looking at the mess he had just created.

"I don't know son, you tell me." Robby Ray said as he came downstairs and looked down at the mess on the coffee table. "If that's supposed to be Miley's birthday present for Lilly, I suggest you hide it."

"No, it's my birthday present for Lilly." Jackson said sighing.

"Ah. So you want to give Lilly and birthday present because…"

"Because I like her." Jackson said. Oops, I wasn't supposed to tell anyone! But saying it out loud now made it seem real. Yeah, he did like Lilly and it wasn't part of his imagination. Now that we've sorted that out, on to the present situation…

"So you want to give her…" Robby opened the lid of the box and looked down at what was there. "… new wheels for her skateboard in a shoebox?"

"I couldn't find anything else." Jackson said.

"Ok, I'm only doing this because I care for you son. How about I wrap your present for you while you get ready, Lilly's coming over here to celebrate her birthday." Robby said.

"Really?" Jackson asked. Robby Ray nodded and Jackson jumped up and hugged him.

"Son, we've been through this already." Robby said as Jackson gave him a big hug.

"Sorry." He said, letting go and running up the stairs and to his room. He showered and got dressed in record time and made it downstairs before Miley, who was still in the shower.

"Did you wrap it?" Jackson asked out loud as he ran down the stairs, but his father wasn't there. Near the couch stood Lilly, a box in her hands, looking shocked as she looked down at what was in it.

"J-Jackson… wow." Lilly said, putting the box down, taking out the wheels. In her hands was the card he had made as well. Ok, so he bought it and just signed it.

"Uh, glad you like it." Jackson said, walking towards her.

"No, this is awesome! I've been trying to get my mom to buy me some new wheels, but she doesn't because she doesn't exactly approve. Thanks!" She said and then enveloped Jackson in a big hug.

Lilly rested her head on his shoulder and smiled. Jackson hugged her back and closed his eyes. He wished he could stand here forever with Lilly in his arms, resting her head on his shoulder. That was worth it…

"Lilly?" They heard Miley call from upstairs. The two sprang apart and Lilly ran towards the stairs.

"Yeah?" She called up.

"Oh, you're here! Just wait a second, I have to dry my hair!" Miley shouted and they heard the hairdryer turn on. Lilly walked back to Jackson and sat down on the couch and looked at the unopened envelope and then colour drained from Jackson's face. He just remembered what he wrote in there.

Lilly ripped it open and read the card, smiling. He smile faltered for a second, but then it got bigger. She finished reading the card and looked up at Jackson, who was blushing.

"Is that true?" Lilly asked. Jackson nodded and then decided to do something he had been dying to do for a long time. He took Lilly's hands and helped her stand.

"I meant every word." He said and then kissed her.

Miley came running down the stairs and then stopped when she saw her brother and best friend kissing. At first she wanted to shout at them, but then she realized that they did look cute together.

It's just going to take some getting used to. She thought as she went back upstairs, leaving the two some privacy.

See, even Miley agrees with us. Nah, I'm just clowning around now. If you were wondering what was written in the card, Jackson just wrote "I love you" . Ain't that sweet? or would you say cheesy? Would you like a sneak peak at the next kiss? Really? Ok, here we go...

"Felt the same way?" Jackson asked, opening the door wider. Lilly nodded.

Not that good of a sneak peak, now is it? Hhm, but it'll keep you guessing, won't it? Well, you are just gonna have to find out when I update tomorrow, which might be early coz no school!!!! Yes, you heard right! School is out for the year. When I go back, I'll be a year older and a grade higher. Oh yeah.
