Haha thanks for the reviews guys! By the way Leslie I laughed when I read ur review. It was hilarious! And no need for the hunting thing, I'll write more.
Lilly's POV:
I closed the door behind me and ran up to my room. Unbelievable, my mother totally ruined that moment. I flopped on my bed and sighed. I took out my cell and texted Oliver. Sorry about my mom. She's kinda been bugging me about u ever since we were in 6th grade. While I waited, I grabbed my Ipod. I put in my headphones and searched through my songs. I stopped on "I could get used to this" by Everlife. (A/N good song). I put it on repeat. Oliver texted me back a few minutes later. 6th grade? Wow and I thought my parents were bad. Its ok Lil, but I wish that moment wasn't cut off. Wink wink. I laughed as I read his text. Thank god he wasn't mad at me.
I thought for a moment. Oliver, maybe we should hold off hanging out today. Just becuz of our parents. Ok? I sighed as I pressed send. Oliver texted back almost immediately. Aww c'mon! it wasn't that bad!! I sighed again. Im sorry Ollie but ive turned bright red enough times in the past 48 hours to last me a month. I just want to save my dignity. Im sorry! Now I felt bad for Oliver. He's obviously liked me forever and now the day after we start dating I say we should just keep to ourselves the rest of the day.
Oliver's POV (3 hours later):
Lilly said I can't see her today. Damn. Well, I'm going to listen to her, or at least try to. It's 3:00 and I really want to see her. Maybe I'll just go to the spot instead and think a little. I grabbed my phone and my shoes, told my mom, and walked out the door. I got to Rico's and ordered a lemonade. Jackson noticed my unhappiness. "What's wrong, Oken?" Jackson asked me. "Something," I said, grabbed my lemonade and walked away. It was rude but I wasn't really in the mood to talk about Lilly to Jackson.
I remembered my way to the spot easily. I climbed up the ladder not making a sound. I was surprised to see Lilly already sitting here. She had her feet hanging out off the edge and she was staring out into the ocean. She looked like she was thinking, but at the same time peaceful. I didn't want to disturb her so I climbed back down the ladder. I tried to walk back to the beach but she saw me. "Oliver!" she said excitedly, but I couldn't help but hear a bit of confusion in her voice. "Oh, hey Lilly." I answered, trying to act like I didn't know she was there. She jumped gracefully down to the ground and smiled at me. I smiled back at her.
"Oh, um Lilly? I thought we weren't gonna hang out today." I said remembering her text. She laughed. I looked at her confused. "Donut! I meant when our parents are around." she said still laughing. I looked at her, pretending to be annoyed. She stopped laughing and mirrored my look. A smile tugged at my lips but I wouldn't let it show. She put her hands on her hips. She looked so hot in that position! I shrugged and walked away. When I heard he scoff at me I turned around, swept her up and kissed her with as much passion as I felt for her. (A/N eek! Corny line…) I pulled away and set her down.
She blushed and looked at the ground. I touched her arm, getting her attention, She looked up at me. Her blue eyes stared straight into my soul and I almost melted. (A/N ack! Its horrible. I cant be a guy) My cell phone rang. "Talk to me." I answered. "Hello Oliver. Can you come home?" it was my mom. "Um, why? Is something wrong?" I asked, suddenly concerned. She laughed. "No honey, its just time for dinner." I sighed in relief. "Okay, I'll be there in five." I said before flipping my phone closed. "Sorry Lil, I gotta go." I said to Lilly. She frowned. "Oh, okay." I gave her an apologetic look before running down the beach towards my house.
Lilly's POV (so u don't have to keep reading Oliver acting all girly anymore):
Oliver just left. I climbed up back into the tree house. I took out the old valentine. I looked at Oliver's childish lettering. I dropped it back in the box and sighed. I tapped out a beat on the bottom of the box. I felt it move down a bit on each tap. I stopped and looked at the bottom. I took out everything. Sure enough, there was a little tab. I pulled up on it. There piece of cardboard came out and revealed an old looking sheet of notebook paper folded in half. I carefully pulled it out and unfolded it.
A smile slowly crossed my face. It was our oath. We made it 3 years after we met.
We, Lilly and Oliver, swear that we will be best friends forever. Yes, forever. We mean we'll be having wheelchair races in our nursing home! Okay you get the point. We promise that no matter what happens, no matter what everyone says, no matter where we are in life, no matter how old and gray we are, that we will always stay best friends. To prove this, we have made a blood oath.
Signed,
Lilly Truscott and Oliver Oken
I smiled, finishing reading the oath we made so many years ago. I slowly folded it back up and placed it in my pocket. I climbed back down the tree and walked onto the beach. Oliver had left about 20 minutes ago. I slowly walked to the other end of the beach and sat on the edge of the pier. (A/N idk if there is one but lets pretend). I put my feet in the water and felt the warm Malibu breeze hit my face. I was immediately relaxed. I closed my eyes and listened to the sounds around me.
