Wow! Thanks for all those reviews. I wasn't sure if you all would have liked a cliffhanger, but apparently it worked. I know this isn't gonna be the best chapter, I really struggled for ideas. So please no flames, I tried really hard here. Thanks.
Lilly snapped her phone shut. She looked around the room. Sarah, Renae, and a few other girls were on the couch talking quietly. Lilly joined them, still a little shaken.
"I'm so sad..." Renae sighed, twirling her long red locks around her finger.
"Why?" Lilly asked absently. Her mind was still on Oliver.
"Greg. She was gonna talk to him today. Remember her "master plan" that she told us about a few days ago?" Sarah explained.
Lilly nodded and opened her phone again. She went over to the window and pressed speed dial #2. "Ring Ring---I'm sorry, the signal has not been found." the same automated voice said.
Lilly sighed deeply. "I hate you stupid voice."
Oliver was sitting on the couch, looking around at the lodge. Arcade, hot chocolate bar, food, pool table, tv... how bad could this be? A grin crept across his mouth. And then he thought of Lilly and Miley. They were stuck in the cabin, with nothing except a fireplace and a couch. The smile that was on his face faded. He hopped up and grabbed his crutches, walking over towards the bar. There has to be a phone behind there, he thought.
Sure enough, there was a phone sitting on the counter behind the bar. Oliver also noticed a few laminated sheets of paper held together with a silver ring. He thumbed through it, realizing that they were numbers for all over Snowflake Lodge. Now. Who do I call?
Miley came out of the shower room with her damp hair up in a towel. She walked over to her duffel bag and set her dirty clothes inside. She started to hum If We Were a Movie while she brushed out her hair.
"Miley, we have a problem." Lilly's freaked out voice cracked a little as she thought about Oliver.
"What's wrong?"
"Well, we're snowed in. And Oliver's in the lodge. Alone. And the signal isn't going through on anyone's cell phone. And Mrs. Davenport doesn't know what to do. She's in the main room pacing back and forth, and she seems more freaked than any of us." Lilly finished and took a deep breath.
For some reason, Miley's first thought was Jake. She shook her head a little to get it out. "Um. Well. What do we do?"
"I don't know." Lilly said. She looked down at her phone. "Miley, I'm scared."
I ran through the lodge, trying to get away. I looked behind me. She was still following me. I pushed open the door, except the outside was gone. It was all pitch black. She was coming. I stepped out into the darkness, and I fell. I kept falling and I started screaming. There was a thud and I knew I had reached the ground. I got up and looked around. It was still dark, but I could see a little circle of light in the distance. I ran faster, knowing that she was close behind me. The light got bigger and bigger, and finally I stepped into it. The darkness was gone, and now I was on the set of Zombie High? There was a monster coming straight for me. There I stood, in my pajamas, breathing heavily. A crowd of people were all staring at me silently.
"Help!" I shouted, trying to run towards the crowd. They stood there with blank expressions. I turned, trying to run back. My feet were stuck to the ground. "Help!" I shouted again. The monster walked closer, only as it came forward, it changed into Miley.
She was smiling. She came closer, until Lilly and Oliver grabbed her. They started laughing and walking away. "Miley," I called out. She didn't hear me.
"Jake!" Mr. Corelli tapped Jake on the shoulder, trying to wke him up. "Jake." He said again.
Jake stirred and opened his eyes. He sat up and saw Mr. Corelli. "Yeah?"
"Wow, you must have been dreaming something good, I've been trying to get you up for 5 minutes. Uh, why do you need Miley so bad?" He asked with a grin.
Jake rolled his eyes. "What do you want?"
"Well, I was just trying to wake you up to tell you that we're snowed in. We're trying to figure out what to do. I'm starving, so, you have any ideas on how to get us out of here?"
Jake's heart beat faster. Miley, was his first thought. "Aren't you the adult here? You should figure it out. Wake me up when you do." Jake layed back down and pulled the blankets over his head, trying to forget about Miley and his nightmare. It's over, dude. She doesn't like you anymore. Just forget about her. He drifted back to sleep.
