Chapter 6: Frosted Fantasy Lodge
A/N: OMG, I am so bad at updating. It's just really hard for me, because it's the end of the school year and I have so much to prepare for...well, anyway. Okay, just so everyone knows there is another story called He's Back written by cheetalady95. So don't get our stories mixed up, because they are in no way related/written by each other. I'm not mad or anything, I just don't want people getting confused. Anyway, everyone should check out her story too! It's really good! On with the long awaited chapter!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-On the bus-
Come on Miley...1 more hour. Just1 more hour until Colorado. I'd been telling myself that over and over, but nothing could help. My butt was hurting from sitting so much, and there was nothing to do. To be honest, most people were going crazy.
"Hey Miley, what did the mommy buffalo say to the son buffalo when he left?" Jake said.
"I have no idea."
"Bye son!" (A/N: You know, like bison?) Jake must be getting a little delirious too...
"Wow. Okay, anyway you wanna play speed?" I said, pulling out a deck of cards from my purse.
"Sure! I love that game! And I'm quite the expert, if I do say so myself."
"Well Mr. Jake Ryan, if there's one thing I learned from Uncle Earl it's how to play card games. Every game you can imagine."
"Well we'll see Miss Stewart!" I dealt out the cards then we began. We flipped over the middle cards to reveal a 9 and 10. It went pretty fast from there.
"Jake, you can't put a 6 on a 9."
"Well you see technically it's a 9 if you look at it upside down. I mean see?" As he flipped the card over.
"I still see a 6."
"Be right back." He turned around and fiddled with his card. "THERE!" He had scribbled over the 6 in pen and switched it to a 9."
"Very clever. And by the way, SPEED!" He had been too caught up in arguing to see that I'd already won.
I can't wait to fall in loooove with you
You can't wait to fall in loooove with me
This just can't be summer loooove you'll see
This just can't be summer loooove
(A/N: This song is "Summer Love" by Justin Timberlake, and I didn't write it, nor do I own it!)
"Hello?" I said, answering my ringing Motorola.
"Duck."
"What? Who is this?" But it was too late then. Because from the front of the bus, someone had whipped their bottle of Fiji water at the side of my head. Oh duh Miley! Duck...wait a minute, who was that! As I rubbed my head, I looked towards the front of the bus to see Lilly and Oliver ducked down in their seats laughing uncontrollably.
"Whoa, Miley are you ok?" Jake said, turning my head to feel the spot where the full water bottle had hit and now a knot was forming.
"Oww, yea it just hurts really bad."
"Want me to kiss it and make it better?"
"Puh-lease I have more important things to do." I said, as I un-screwed the cap to the water bottle and walked to the front of the bus. Lilly and Oliver were still ducked down, but now sharing a kiss. I ducked under the seat behind them, then slowly rose up and poured the water on their heads.
"Sorry, just thought things were getting a little too hot for you!" I said, then spun on my heel and walked back smirking.
"Daaang Miley I've never seen this side of you before! So feisty...it's pretty hott."
"Listen Jake, a girl does not want to hear that she's hott, but that she's beautiful."
"Miley..." He started.
"No Jake, it's okay. Let's forget it okay? Besides, we're here!" I said, pointed out the window. There was a blanket of snow on the ground, and it looked like winter paradise. We were driving up the long driveway to Frosted Fantasy, a luxury lodge that our school had somehow managed to afford. The whole busload of kids were screaming and pointing.
"It's so beautiful..." I said, staring out the window.
"Yea...you are. I, I mean, I meant the view and the snow and yea..." Jake replied.
"Okayyy students listen up! Girls, you will be lodging on the 3rd floor. Boys, the 2nd floor. 3 people per room please. After you are unpacked, meet in the lobby at 5 for dinner. Got it?" Mr. Milani said.
"Yessir!" Everyone yelled, then rushed to get out, struggling with their bulky bags.
I reached up and got my rolling bag from the shelf and my duffel and purse that were in my seat. I finally managed to get through all the seats with my huge baggage and walked toward the lodge, trying to figure out who the heck I was going to room with now that Lilly and I weren't talking. I walked in and passed the scraggly scary looking guy working at the desk then sat my stuff down by the brown leather couch. It was amazing inside. There was a huge fireplace, a snack bar supplied with food & hot drinks, leather couches & chairs, magazines, massage chairs, a sign directing to a spa, everything! I looked around, trying to see if anyone needed someone to room with. The only person I saw who was looking for a room was Lilly, and under no circumstances would I room with her! Surely there's someone...I turned around to look, not noticing someone was sneaking up behind me. Oh wait! There's Sarah, I can room with her! Then I felt a huge wave of heat being splashed on me. Lilly had come behind me and poured her hot chocolate on me! And naturally, I screamed.
"OH MY GOSH LILLY I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" I said, running after her.
"WHATEVER HAPPENED TO BEST FRIENDS FOREVER!?"
"MORE LIKE BEST FRIENDS FOR NEVER!" I replied. Then I jumped on her and pushed her to the ground, then we began rolling around not really fighting but more like pulling each others hair...that sort of thing.
"GIRLS!" Mr. Milani yelled, marching over. No, literally he was marching. He's such a nerd! "I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS KIND OF MADNESS! IF YOU TWO CAN'T SETTLE YOUR PROBLEMS IN A CALM WAY, I WILL! But how shall I do that?" He said, then began to stroke his mustache. "I know! Obviously you don't get along. You two can settle your problems by rooming together. You're assigned to room 381. I'm watching you two." He said, handing us each a card to get in.
"Way to go, this sucks!" I said, glaring at Lilly. I grabbed my bags and raced to the elevator, shutting the doors in Lilly's face. Then I pressed the button for floor 3. The doors opened to reveal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and rooms. I walked until I got to 381 then slid the card in the slot. The door opened, and the room was really nice. There were 2 king size beds, large plasma screen T.V., even an iHome which I sat my iPod in. Take that Lilly I thought, knowing Lilly would want to put her iPod in it. I walked to the bathroom, witch had a huge bath with hot tub jets and everything, Paul Mitchell shampoos & conditioners, Bath & Body Works soaps, and on the sink were many various full size Bath & Body Works products. I walked back out to unpack, then saw that Lilly had come in and thrown down her bags then left.
"Whatever, now I can pack in peace." I said, turning on the radio on the iHome. "Heaven" was playing by DJ Sammy. This song always makes me sad, I thought. I began to sing along while I unpacked, which didn't take long since Hannah Montana had to stay in lots of hotels because of concerts, I had become quite the expert in unpacking.
I can't wait to fall in loooove with you
You can't wait to fall in loooove with me
This just can't be summer loooove you'll see
This just can't be summer loooove
"Hello?" I said, picking up my phone.
"Hey Miles. What room are you in?" Jake said.
"381. You?"
"125. Dude, there's like a million Axe sprays & other colognes and stuff in here!"
"Someone's gonna be smelling pretty good!" I joked.
"You know it. Hey it's almost 5, so we'd better get down there. I'll see ya in a minute!"
"Okay bye Miles!" Then we hung up. I changed my clothes, then walked into the bathroom and spritzed on some of the cherry blossom body spray the hotel supplied and touched up my make-up and smoothed out my outfit, which was a denim mini-skirt over navy leggings and a 3-quarter length shirt with navy and white stripes, navy ballet flats, and a navy blue beaded necklace to top it off. I smoothed my straightened hair and grabbed my purse and key-card and walked out of the room to find Jake standing at the door.
"Whoa-I mean, hey Miley!" He said, flashing that toothy smile and coming in for a hug.
"Hey Jake!" I said, hugging him back. "This is really random, but you smell really good!"
"Well, someone else smells just beautiful too-hey! Maybe it's that maid that just passed by!" Jake joked, "HEY SEXYYY!" He yelled to the maid, who turned around and scowled. We ran to the elevator to escape.
-Downstairs-
"Okay students, there are 5 places you can eat at here, or you can walk down the road where you'll find 4 more. You're choice. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner will be paid for by us. But any extras won't. Whenever you go to the restaurant tell them you're with the Seaview Band and they'll put it on our tab. There is a list of restaurants and their locations going around now. With that being said, go eat dinner!" Mr. Milani said, giving everyone a list of restaurants.
"Hey Miley, do you uh, wanna go eat somewhere with me?" Jake said, looking at the couch.
"Well...yea, okay that sounds fun! Where are we eating at?"
"Are serious! YES!" He said, pumping his fist in the air. "Okay, well how does Chili's sound?"
"Sounds great!" We got up, and began to walk towards the Chili's restaurant. The sound "Girlfriend" was blaring inside the restaurant when we got there.
"How many?" The hostess said.
"Two." Replied Jake. "Watch this!" He whispered to me, as the hostess turned around.
"Ma'am? May I have a coloring sheet and some crayons?" He said.
"Um, excuse me? Aren't you a little old?"
"Maybe I'm just an extremely tall little kid. Ever think of that?"
"Uh, no." She reached behind her and got a sheet and crayons and handed them to him.
"Follow me to your seat." Jake & I followed. Well, Jake skipped trying to prove he was a little kid.
"Here you go." She said, seating us. "What would you like to drink?"
"Dr. Pepper." I replied.
"DR. PEPPER!!!" Jake yelled.
"Yea...I'll be back." She said, shaking her head and walking away.
"JAKE! I cannot believe you just did that!" I exclaimed.
"Oh please, the night has only just begun." He said, getting ready to start coloring. "HEY! WHERE'S MY RED CRAYON? HOW CAN I COLOR WITHOUT A RED CRAYON!" He said, throwing a fit, as I laughed uncontrollably. He was about to get up and steal one from the entrance, but stopped and quickly sat down once he saw something at the entrance of the restaurant.
"What is it Jake?" I said, trying to see.
"No Miley don't-!" He said, blocking my view. But it was too late because I'd already seen it. And boy were we in for a night!
