Chapter 5: Chilly

Jake put his arm around Miley as soon as we began driving. Miley smiled at him, but looked uncomfortable. She looked to Lilly, but Lilly wasn't looking back. So Miley allowed him to keep his arm there.

Later on, Lilly noticed his arm, and looked away rolling her eyes. I smiled at her, which made her smile too. Soon, the limo slowed down and we stopped. Jake got out first to help Miley out. He offered to help Lilly but she refused to take his hand.

"So where are we?" Miley asked.

"This is Chilly. It's a dance club for teenagers only. I remembered how much you said you love to dance, so I thought I'd bring you here."

"Awe, Jake, that's so sweet! Thank-you!" she said, linking arms with Jake.

"Anything for you, Miley." Jake winked.

Lilly rolled her eyes once more, but linked her arm with mine to show that she didn't care. Miley looked back at us and winked, causing me to roll my eyes. With that, we walked into the dance club.

"Yo, Jake!"

"Hey, Jake!"

"Sup, Jake?"

Jake gave piece signs and pointed his hand like a gun at the people that greeted him.

"Why aren't they attacking you?" Lilly asked.

"I come here a lot. At first they were all star struck, but now they accept me as one of their own." Jake smiled. "So Miley, want to dance?"

"Yes!" Miley squealed. "I mean, sure, why not?"

Lilly smiled softly at Miley as she grabbed Jake's hand. Lilly and I decided to just go sit down in a booth and talk.

"Hey, Oliver?" Lilly asked.

"Yeah, Lil?"

"Do you…Never mind."

"No, what is it?"

"No, never mind. It's stupid."

"No it's not."

"Do you think…I'm pretty?"

"Yes!" I blurted out instantly. "I mean, yeah."

She sighed. "You're just saying that. And now I sound so stupid. I'm gonna go get a drink."

"Wait, Lil," I followed after her. She didn't turn around.

"Hi, can I get a soda?" Lilly asked the person at the counter.

"What kind?"

"Mountain Dew?"

"Regular, code red, livewire, or black cherry?"

"Code red, please."

"Coming right up."

"Lil, is something wrong?"

"Nope."

"You know I really did mean what I said."

"Thanks…" Lilly said, still not believing me.

I decided to let it go, and Lilly got her drink. I got one too, and we went back to the booth.

"So do you think I'm pretty?" I asked her laughing, trying to lighten the mood. And it worked; she cracked up.

"You're beautiful," she laughed.

"Hey, guys!" Miley greeted happily, sliding into the rounded booth.

"Aren't you guys gonna dance?" Jake asked.

"Wasn't planning on it," I said.

"Well, we can't have that now, can we?" Miley asked.

"Yeah we can." Lilly answered, but Miley grabbed her arm and pulled her onto the dance floor. They soon disappeared into a crowd of people.

"Dude, what are you doing?" Jake asked as soon as they were gone.

"…Sitting?"

"Dude! Why aren't you dancing with Lilly?"

"I don't know."

"Man, you got a lot to learn."

"About what?"

"Girls, dude! You were sitting in a booth with a gorgeous girl and you didn't do anything!"

"That's because she doesn't like me like that."

"Oh really? So what did you guys talk about?"

"Well, first she asked if she was pretty and-" I started but he cut me off.

"Exactly!"

"Exactly what?"

"You were being an idiot and wouldn't give her a compliment, so she had to go fishing for one. You did say yes, right?"

"Of course, I'm not that stupid."

"But she didn't believe you, right?"

"Yeah, how'd you know?"

"Made that mistake when I was young and naive. Now I know that they only believe compliments when they don't have to ask."

"That is so…actually that makes sense."

"Exactly. So what are you gonna say when Lilly comes back?"

"Uh…want another drink?"

"No!" Jake was frustrated. "Just ask her to dance, Ok?"

"But there aren't any slow songs."

"…So? That's better, Oliver."

"Yeah, but, I can't."

"Why?"

'Cause I suck at dancing. "I-Oh look the girls are back, hey girls!" Good save.

"You wanna dance again, Miley?"

"Actually, I'm kind of thirsty. Let me just go get a drink."

"No, no! I'll get it, you stay here."

Miley smiled huge as he left to go get her a drink. "Is he to die for or what?"

"He's awesome, Miley." Lilly smiled gently.

"So why aren't y'all dancing?"

"I don't do fast songs." I stated.

"Me neither." Lilly agreed.

"Lilly, I was just out there with you and you were shaking your junk, so don't even tell me you don't like fast songs."

Lilly laughed and blushed. "Well, that was a good song." she defended herself.

"So what about you, Oliver, why don't you 'do' fast songs?"

"Simple; I can't dance."

"Oliver, the guy's job is easy. All you do is stand there." Miley laughed at my red face.

"Actually, it's harder than it seems," Jake laughed, coming to the booth and setting Miley's drink on the table in front of her.

Miley took a couple sips of her drink and grabbed Jake's arm. "Let's go." she ordered, pulling him away to dance.

Just as they left, some girl came up to us. She looked about our age, maybe older, and had fiery red hair. "Hey there, hottie. Wanna dance?"

"Hey, back off Red, he's not interested!" Lilly ordered, surprising me.

"Hey, Blondie, he can speak for himself!" she snapped right back. The both crossed their arms and stared at me, waiting for me to answer.

"Uh…yeah, sorry but I'm not interested."

"Whatever." The redhead said, walking away.

Before I could ask her what that was about, a guy walked up to the table. We'll call him Jerk. "Hey pretty lady, what's your name?"

"Drop dead!" I snapped before Lilly could answer. I really gotta learn to control my words.

"Whoa, take it easy man, I didn't know she was taken." Jerk said. "Ey yo, Red!" he called out, signaling for the redhead to wait up for him.

"What was that?" I asked.

"I could ask you the same thing."

The DJ began talking before I could say anything. "Alright, alright, I'm gonna take it down a notch for y'all. I know y'all are tired, so this is a slow song for anyone who wants it."

"Um…wanna dance?" I asked.
