Watching a Movie or Not?

Miley's POV

"Wow that um, thanks that sure answered my question." I said with a smirk as we both sat down on the couch.

"Oh no, I babble when I'm nervous. What did I tell you Miles?"

"You forgot what you said?" I chuckled

"Well it was all so fast and I didn't realize it. Come on Miley, please be honest." Lilly asked really anxiously.

"Of course I will. Ok, first you admitted that you like Oliver. Then you said you can tell he feels the same way. You asked me if I could and yes I think he makes it obvious sometimes. Next, you were frustrated that he's too stubborn to do anything. Ok, I think I got it all."

After I told her all this, Lilly's eyes were wide open in shock.

"A-are you kidding me, I said all that?!" she practically shouted and suddenly stood up from the couch.

"Lilly, calm down." I said to her as I tugged at her arm so she would sit back down. And she did, but she was still horrified at the fact that she said all these things. "It's ok; I'm your best friend. Weren't you going to tell me anyway?"

"Well yeah, but it was just weird hearing it from you. Anyway, what about you and Jake?"

"Nope, I know what you're doing, you're changing the subject. First you and Oliver, then we'll talk about me." I tried to reason.

"Fine." She agreed.

"Ok, so he does feel the same way and we both know that, what are you going to do to get him to admit it?"

"Well that's what I don't know. And I don't even know why I like him, he's been acting really strange lately- mean actually."

"Yeah, that's true." I just remembered. "And so has Jake. Why do you think they started those fights like that?"

"Well for one thing they didn't know each other very well and another they are boys."

"Oh yeah, do you think we should ask them?" I decided. I kinda wanted to find out, but for some reason I didn't want to see Jake right now.

"Good idea. I'll call Oliver, you call Jake." Lilly agreed, so I went along too.

"Ok, how about we tell them we want to…"

"Study together at your house?" Lilly asked, thinking of a good excuse.

"Cool, let's do it."

We both got out our cell phones at the same time. We started talking at the same time too. After a half a minute, because it was just one question, we were both off the phone.

"Ok, Oliver will be over in about five." Lilly reported.

"And so will…oh shoot! I totally forgot to give Jake my address. Boy am I slow." I said as I was already back on the phone waiting for him to answer. Lilly just rolled her eyes.

"Hey Jake it's Miley again."

"Oh hey what's up?" he said.

"Well I just realized I forgot to give you my address." I said in a low voice. Upset at my own stupidity.

"Yeah I know." He said simply.

"What? Then why didn't you call back?"

"I was just waiting for you to notice. I wanted to see how long it took you." I could tell he was smiling on the other end by the sound of his voice. Now this just made me mad.

"Boy, when you get here I'm gonna…" I thought better of what I would do and decided I just didn't like him now. So I would just study. "…we're just gonna study ok?"

"Uh, ok then." he sounded confused now.

I quickly said my address and didn't even ask him if he was ready. Hopefully he wouldn't remember.

"Bye Jake."

"Yeah I'll see you later then."

We both hung up then I glared at Lilly, but I wasn't really glaring at her. I was just thinking about how mad I was at Jake.

"What?" Lilly said a little confused by the way I was looking at her. Then it knocked me out of my thoughts.

"Oh sorry, it's not you, I was just thinking about what Jake said on the phone. He's just so annoying."

"Yeah, Oliver has been a little lately too, that's why we're inviting them over remember?" Lilly said in an obvious tone.

"I know, but Jake just said that he knew I forgot the address. And he was just waiting for me to call back, because he wanted to see how long it took me to realize it. He was a little stuck up about it too." I added.

"You're right, that wasn't very nice."

"Lilly, does he have to come?" I whined.

"Miles, we need to ask them why they've been fighting, otherwise we'll never know."

"Fine."

"So you don't like Jake then?" she asked me, wanting to hear more.

"Are you kidding? He sounds like even more of a jerk!"

"So you don't like him then?" she asked again

"Lilly, you just asked me that."

"And you never said yes or no, you just said he's a jerk." She smirked

"No, I don't like him ok?! Now could you get the door please, I don't feel like getting up." I asked her right after I heard a knock at the door. Then she walked toward the door and said something else to me.

"Yes Ms. Bossy, maybe you and Jake were meant for each other."

I just simply glared at her with my arms folded and waited to see who was at the door. It was Oliver.

"Hey guys, so you said you wanted to study together?" he asked just to confirm.

"Oh yeah…right, study…yep that's what we're doing." Lilly said in a funny tone.

Oliver looked confused for a moment, but dismissed it and sat on the soft chair by the couch. Then he tossed his book bag next to his feet.

"Oliver what are you doing, why aren't you getting out your homework?" I asked.

"Oh please, when you guys say you want to study and then invite friends over, you know you're just gonna talk and stuff." He said it like it was obvious.

"W-wait friends? How do you know it's not just you we invited?" I asked suspiciously

Oliver just held up fiver fingers. Then he put them down slowly, one at a time. He was counting down for some reason, but didn't say anything about it until he was finished. When the last finger went down, he pointed behind him. He was pointing at the door. Somebody was walking up and going to knock on it. Lilly was still standing there, so she just opened it. Jake was there.

"Oliver how'd you do that?" Lilly asked, really amazed.

"Well I actually saw Jake in his limo on my way in. He was on the phone and told me he'd be in, in a minute. I guess I was right." Oliver replied, pleased with himself once again.

Lilly obviously liked it when he looked like this, because I saw the same look on her face as before. But nobody else noticed, because I got up from the couch and walked over to Jake.

"Well it looks like you found my house." I said into his face.

"Yeah, you know you gave me the address without notice, but I memorized it quickly because I still wanted to come."

"Great, well here you are, so let's get to work." I said in a determined voice.

"Whoa whoa, wait a minute…" Jake said and then put his hand on mine, to stop me from getting my homework out of my book bag. "…there are four of us here. Do you really think we're going to study?" he smiled.

"Um yeah, that's what I was thinking." I said right back to him.

"Come on Miley, why don't we watch a movie or something?" he pleaded. Oh no, now he's begging.

I just rolled my eyes and looked over at Lilly; she looked excited at the sound of this idea.

"But we-" I tried to say, still looking at Lilly. But she cut me off.

"We don't have any tests coming up, so let's do it." she said and was already up by the TV, picking out a movie.

"Alright fine, we'll do it." I said reluctantly. I was about to get up, then realized Jake's hand was still on top of mine.

"Um, Jake." I said and pointed to our hands.

"Oh right, sorry." he blushed and took it off.

Lilly put a movie in and then ran over to the kitchen to make some popcorn.

As she was doing that, I sat on the floor just in front of the couch too lean back on it. Then I got a small pillow from the couch and put it behind me to make myself more comfortable.

Apparently Jake had been watching me. Because right after I got situated, he walked over and sat down next to me; doing the same thing. Grabbed a pillow from the couch, sat on the floor, put the pillow behind him and then turned and smiled at me.

I just rolled my eyes; got up and sat on the couch- Jake did it too. So I sat back down on the floor. I couldn't believe it, he tried me again.

I stood up quickly and threw my pillow on the couch. I had lost it now. Jake stood up too.

"What are you doing Jake?! Would you please just stop! Can't you tell I don't want to sit next to you?" I said to his face, a bit loudly.

"Sorry Miley, I just thought I'd try. I'm sorry, I probably should have asked first." He said, a little taken aback.

"Ya think. Look do you guys wanna know the real reason we asked you here? We wanted to ask you why-"

Just then the loud beep of the microwave cut me off. The popcorn was finished. I looked over at Lilly. She was waiting beside it, but was facing us. She had a surprised look on her face, like she didn't want me to say anything now. Luckily I had been saved by the bell right then. But I knew we would still have to ask them sometime tonight.

"Uh Lilly, popcorn." I pointed to the microwave to remind Lilly it was there.

"Oh, right." she said and hurried and grabbed a big bowl.

A/N Still like it? Should I keep going? Thanks for all those other reviews!
