Ok, dasiy617 suggested this follow the previous kiss... which it does! Mwahaha... :) I enjoy writing in Jackson's POV, it's so much fun! Wish I'd found this out sooner so I could've done more kisses in his POV. Maybe I'll start up a fic in his POV, if I can keep it up.

Girl of my Dreams

And when she walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She doesn't notice me!
Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes-
Girl All The Bad Guys Want, Bowling for Soup

Ok, so Saturday came and I chickened on the confronting Lilly thing. Yeah, the whole thing happened on a Wednesday and I hadn't seen her since then. Rico, being the evil thing that he is, did make me work from the moment I arrived after school till the sunset, so by the time I got home Lilly should've been home.

Which is what happened.

And I didn't see her at school. Ok, so she didn't see me at school, but I saw her. I just so happened to always pass her locker during periods and spotted her there talking and laughing with Miley and Oliver.

Did she spot me? Nope.

See, I'm that good at sleuthing. Ha, thought I wouldn't know what a word like that would mean, didn't ya? Well, I have a few surprises up my sleeve…

Ok, so maybe I don't, but that's beside the point. We aren't talking about my great detective skill or my intellect. No, we're talking about my obsessions with Lilly.

No! I mean… something that isn't obsession, but isn't the word. Dang it, what word am I looking for?

Uhm…

Anyway, she didn't notice me for the past two days. And didn't even acknowledge me on Saturday morning! Well, she did comment on my chocolate covered mouth. Guess what I said? Something smart for once in my life, right?

Seriously, if you thought that you don't know me at all.

"So that's where all the chocolate went!" I said and then proceeded to lick the chocolate around my mouth and then wiped the rest off on my wrist and lick that.

Of course, Lilly just laughed at me and Miley made a disgusted face. Hey, at least I got the reaction I wanted!

"Jackson, if you've finished with your breakfast." Miley started and then all three of us looked down at my bowl of ice cream and chocolate source, which mostly consisted of the chocolate part. "Can you please drop Lilly and I off at the mall?"

It just so happened that Lilly and I shared a look. Her face went red and she looked away while I stared at her confused. After a moment Miley cleared her throat and I looked at her, realizing I hadn't answered her question.

"Sure." I said and pushed the bowl away from me. Miley smiled brightly and walked past me and out the door, Lilly following. Of course, I stood there like a love struck puppy watching Lilly walk out that door.

Love struck puppy? Where do I get these things?

I think Lilly sensed I was watching her because she turned her head to look at me and tripped over her own feet. I rushed to help her, but she quickly scrambled to her feet and ran off to join Miley.

Girls are confusing, really confusing. I mean, I was pretty sure Lilly liked me back because she'd kissed me back, but I was sadly wrong. I learnt this the hard way as I watched the two of them meet up with some group of guys and this one guy put his arm around Lilly!

My Lilly!

No, I mean… Well, she isn't mine and I don't really want her to be mine or anything…

I'll shut up now.

Seeing that sent me into a shock and I stopped thinking momentarily (what's new?). This forced me to park the car and soon I found myself trailing behind the group until we reached the cinema. I watched as Miley grabbed the one guys hand and dragged him off to somewhere… I don't even want to know what it was that they were going to do. Like I cared anyway.

I kept my eyes glued to Lilly as she spoke to the guy she stood next to. He looked familiar to me, but I couldn't put the face with a name… nor where I could've possibly seen him before.

I watched as Lilly spoke really fast and the guy just looked bored. My spirits lifted; maybe they weren't on a date! Then that dude had to go and crush all my hopes by leaning in and kissing Lilly.

My Lilly!

Dang it, when will I stop calling her that?

Acting on impulse, of course, I came out from my hiding spot and was contemplating on decking the guy or walking away when I watched Lilly's fist come up and punch the guy under his chin.

I was jumping with glee… inside of course.

"What the hell Lilly?" I heard him yell, but Lilly just turned around and walked towards me. I didn't have enough time to hide behind the plants I was using as a hiding place, so I stood there frozen, watching her.

"Come on Jackson, let's go." She said and then put her arm around my waist and steered me away.

Score!

"What happened?" I asked. I actually wasn't talking about Lilly punching the guy, but her coming towards me instead. Lilly didn't know this of course.

"Oh, Brad thought I was on a date with him. I don't think we'd ever go on an official date now." Lilly said casually and moved her arm away from me as I could now walk properly.

Bummer.

'Course this didn't mean I couldn't put my arm around her shoulders. Which I did, but she gave me a weird look and I moved my arm away. So much for Mr. Smooth.

"So where are we going?" I asked after a moment of silence. Lilly just shrugged and we continued walking. I wasn't absolutely sure what was going on or what I was doing. Nor did Lilly seem to know because it turned out she just wanted to walk around aimlessly with me.

So I couldn't take the silence anymore, ok?

"So, uhm, Lilly…" I trailed off trying to think of what to ask her. What do you ask a girl??

"Yeah?" She asked. I looked over at her and my brain completely froze. Nothing new, right? Wrong my friend!

"I, er, uhm, well…" I stood there babbling like an idiot, making a complete fool of myself. But you want to know what Lilly did?

Laugh.

She laughed at me!

And you want to know what I did?

I laughed with her.

Ha. I am good with the ladies. Until I stopped laughing when I remembered that we were actually laughing at me and I was making an even bigger fool of myself, which is the complete opposite of what I wanted to do.

Guess I am hopeless.

"Why so tongue tied?" Lilly asked when she calmed down.

"No reason." I said quickly. Lilly stood there, staring me down, waiting for me to crack. But I wouldn't because Jackson does not crack under pressure!

Ok, maybe sometimes I do.

"I wanted to talk… I mean ask… or whatever. Ok, let me start again." I said when Lilly looked at me as if I'd grown another head. Maybe that's a good thing and the second one could do all the talking and get embarrassed. Then again, I'd be a freak with two heads and I wouldn't want that to happen.

So growing a second head is out.

"Alright, remember what happened on Wednesday?" I asked. Realization dawned on Lilly's face and I felt happy that I didn't have to go further then that.

Then stupid because I'd put us both in an awkward position and both of us were embarrassed. I could tell, my cheeks felt like they were on fire and I could see Lilly's cheeks went redder under the makeup she wore.

Hold up, Lilly was wearing makeup?

"Hey, why are you wearing-" I started saying, but Lilly shushed me.

"Why did you bring that up?" She hissed. Ok, so she was angry. What did I do now!

Oh… maybe she wasn't embarrassed…

"I'm sorry, but I'm really confused here."

"When aren't you?" Lilly asked and rolled her eyes.

"I take offence to that!" I shot back, but she didn't laugh. Darn it.

"Jackson, there's nothing to it. You like me because you kissed me." She said it slowly so it could sink into my head. I'm stupid or anything! I wanted to say this, but didn't.

"You kissed me back." I challenged. Her cheeks went red again and I knew it was because she was blushing.

Girls. Can't understand them.

"No I didn't." She shot back.

"Why are you wearing makeup?"

"What?"

"Were you on a date?"

"Yeah…"

"So then why'd you deck him when he kissed you?" I asked, putting my finger on my chin as I thought. This was so I would look smarter, but I don't think it had the desired affect.

"What does that have to do with anything?" Lilly argued back, but I could tell from her face I was on the right track.

"Because this whole thing was a set-up! You wanted to make me jealous!" I exclaimed, happy I had gotten it right.

Though Lilly didn't react the way I thought she would. Nope, she didn't say yes, that's exactly what she wanted and then tell me to kiss her, which I'd happily oblige to.

Nope, what she did was laugh. Again.

"What?" I demanded.

"I went on this date because Miley didn't want to hear me talk about how much I enjoyed that kiss on Wednesday. She told me to either tell you how I felt or go out with another guy." She said. Then stopped laughing.

I'd like to say I took this news as manly as I could. Though then I'd be a liar… ok, so I do lie a lot. But my reaction to this was really my jaw dropping and rendering me speechless.

Happy dance then ensured which actually got Lilly laughing again. Which was good, because she looked like she wanted to kill herself for admitting that.

"Ok Jackson, there, you know now." She said as the laughing stopped. Though she had to grab my arm to stop me from my dance. Which was a good thing because I was seriously embarrassing myself here. "What about you?"

"What about me?" I asked, once again confused. Seriously, people shouldn't be subtle around me!

"How did you feel about the kiss?"

"Isn't it obvious?"

"I'd prefer a confession."

"Alright. Lilly Truscott, I lo-… really like you." I said, grabbing her hand. I then got down on my knee and Lilly looked around to see if anyone was watching. If she was going to run away from me because I was embarrassing, she'd have done that when I was happy dancing. "Will you go out on a date with me?"

"Sure!" She said and then dragged me to my feet. Of course, so excited and our faces so close together, I kissed her.

Way better then the one we had 3 days ago. Better then kissing all those other girls I've been out with. Ok, getting in too deep here…

So basically, Lilly kissed me back and I knew she really meant it, which got me excited and I was on a high. I didn't care if anyone watched the two of us make out in the middle of the mall…

Ok, maybe I got a little bit self-conscious and pulled away, looking around and then kissing Lilly again.

But who could deny me this? I'd finally gotten the girl of my dreams!


Oh my gosh... 2 kisses left! And I only need 1 more idea, because I know what's gonna happen on kiss no. 50. Hee hee... Anyway, couple of things I want to ask from you. I'm making a 'Lackson Playlist', songs which remind you of Lackson. It's just songs that I listen to when I'm writing and so far I've got about 27 songs or something, so I want to take in suggestions.

Also if anyone reads all my other HM fics and you haven't seen the poll up on my profile, please vote for the next HM fic to go up. A new HM fic from me will be up as soon as this is finished and my Suite Life fic (which I also would suggest you read, Lackson is in it. Which sucks, 'cause I don't have any crossover pairings, but whatever. I can't give up on my fave pairings!)
