Ok I was bored so I decided to start the 3rd chapter. Woot! Okay yeah its not that amazing but I liked how I ended the last chapter. So yeah, Lilly's AND Oliver's POV in this chapter again. It's the same day as where we left off. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda
Lilly's POV:
An hour later I finally calmed down enough to stop crying. I was miserable. Oliver's family thought I was dating him! No, this can't be happening. I have to break up with Tyler. I can't have him hanging over my head anymore. He's too jock-y for me anyway. Plus I like Oliver, and now that his family thinks we're dating? I just don't need a boyfriend right now. And Oliver? Oliver I'll have to muster up the courage to talk to him…eventually. No. I have to talk to him. But I don't think I can get through his apologies without getting upset. I called Tyler. I said I wanted to break up. He seemed much to calm about it. He was probably cheating anyway. Maybe I'll go walk on the beach and get Oliver off my mind. No, all boys in general off my mind.
Olivers POV:
Lilly probably hates me. Great, my dream girl hates me now. It's all stupid Omar's fault. He had to open his big mouth. I hate him now. I have to go talk to him.
In Omar's room…
"Omar!" I said angrily, trying not to yell. Omar looked up for a second and immediately got a smirk across his face. I glared at him. "Yes, little brother?" he answered in a fakely sweet voice. "Omar, why did you do that? I really like Lilly. Now she probably hates me." I started yelling and got softer in realization. Omar looked at me with a smile which slowly faded into a sympathetic look. He got up from his desk chair and put a hand on my shoulder. "Dude, I'm pretty positive she doesn't hate you. She probably hates me though." He said with a small chuckle. I looked at him with a 'yeah right' look on my face. He just gave me a noogie and said "Go after her, dude." I didn't need anything more. I ran downstairs and out the door towards the beach. She always went there when she wanted to think. (A/N good job Oliver!)
Lilly's POV:
Once I got to the beach I headed straight to Rico's. I saw Jackson working and immediately turned down the beach. I really didn't want to deal with his questions too. It was finally sunset. I loved summer when the sun went down so much later. I decided to sit on a giant rock I found, and watch the sunset. I was finally calm. A small smile appeared on my face.
My bliss was stopped short when I saw Oliver walking down the beach, looking for something. Or someone. Yeah, he's probably looking for me. I let out a sigh. I don't think I'm ready but I suppose I have to be, he's already spotted me. I looked away from him before he got to me. I closed my eyes, hoping he would get the message. Silly me for thinking a donut like him could possibly get any non-verbal message. Or verbal message really…but that's beside the point.
Oliver sat next to me. I tensed up. He apparently didn't notice because he only moved closer. "Lilly…" he said quietly. I paused for a moment, mustering up my courage to say something, anything to him. "Yeah, Oliver?" I said just as quietly. He let out a relieved sigh, I'm guessing because I actually talked to him. "Lilly, my family didn't know. I'm really, really, really sorry. Are we still friends?" he said and looked at me hopefully. "Oliver," I said then paused for a moment. "Oliver, I broke up with Tyler. And I forgive you, I'm not letting your family ruin a 9 year friendship, okay?" I said, not making eye contact. He smiled and gave me a hug. At first I didn't hug back. I was scared. Scared I'd do something stupid, scared I'd kiss him, scared I'd embarrass myself. I hugged back with one arm. When he held me tighter I hugged him back with both arms. I have my best friend back. The problem? I'm not sure if that's good. I want Oliver but not as a best friend. As a boyfriend.
We both pulled back. "Hey, Oliver?" I said unsteadily. "Hm?" he answered. "I don't think I want you as a best friend." I said. I watched Oliver's face fall. He looked at me with hurt in his eyes. He didn't understand. I gulped, I couldn't believe I was about to do this. I kissed him square on the lips. I pulled back and let out an unsteady breath. "That's what I meant." I said.
Then I stood up and ran. I didn't want to hear or see his reaction. I heard him call my name but I kept running. He called my name again, it was louder. He must have been right behind me but I didn't dare look back. I couldn't. But wait why was he following me? I stopped and started crying. I leaned down from my waist and just screamed. It felt amazing to let all of my anger and hurt out. I stopped screaming and fell to my knees. I was still crying and I honestly wasn't sure if they were happy or sad.
I sensed Oliver sitting next to me. It was black out now, so I couldn't see his face very well. "Lils? Lils, are you crying?" he asked concerned. I shook my head and wiped my tears. I felt his arm around my shoulders. I looked up at him with my mascara drawing black streaks across my cheeks. He wiped away some of it. Then he said "Lil, you like me?" I expected him to laugh in my face or tease me and say something about "smokin' oken" or "ollie trolley" or say it with a teasing tone. But he didn't, he was totally serious. I looked down and nodded.
He took my chin and pulled it to face him. He was smiling. My heart had a flutter of hope. He leaned down and kissed me. My stomach did about 10 backflips right about then. I kissed back. He pulled back and smiled. "Lils, I've liked you forever. And also, that's why I was acting so weird at school." I smiled and kissed him again. This one was longer. I pulled away abrubtly. "Oliver!" I said a little loudly. "What?" he answered confused. "Your parents are gonna freak out. Do they know you're here?" I said franticly. He smiled at me, amused. I looked at him like he was insane. "You know, Lilly, you can still stay over…" He said with a mischevious smile on his face. I smiled too. "I think I can do that. But tell your parents and your brothers to lay off, okay?" "Gladly," he answered.
He grabbed my hand and pulled me up after him. "I have to get my stuff." He thought for a second. "Do you have to? You could wear one of my shirts to bed, then just wear those same clothes home. And we always have millions of toothbrushes and stuff." I looked at him weirdly. "Ollie, I don't we aren't even dating. I can just go home and get my stuff. I promise I won't take long." By that time we were close to my house. I pecked him on the cheek and started walking to my house. He started walking to his house. I secretly smiled to myself. Oliver kissed me. That was what was floating around my head the whole time.
I grabbed a duffel bag and packed clothes for tomorrow, my bathroom stuff (toothbrush, comb, etc.), some pajamas, my ipod, and a few movies. I threw them all in my duffel and headed to Oliver's.
Meanwhile…
Oliver's POV:
Lilly likes me!! I kissed Lilly, she likes me, and she's staying the night. Oh my gosh. Oh wait I have to tell mom and dad she's coming after all. I walked into the kitchen and looked for my parents. I could see them sitting in the next room. I walked over to them. "Hey, mom? Dad? Lilly's sleeping over. That's okay, right?" I looked hopeful. "Oliver, of course Lilly can. We're sorry about what happened at dinner, sweetie." my mom said in a apologetic tone. I just grinned and said thanks.
I went upstairs. I closed my door and locked it securely shut. Then I happy-danced around the room with a stupid grin plastered on my face. I cleaned my room up a bit. I really wanted to impress Lilly.
Ok the next chapter will be the sleepover and what happens and blah de blah. Or should I just cancel this story? Tell me in a review plz!
