So Lilly and Oliver had told the truth. They were sticking by Miley, no matter what. Even if she was in a class all by herself, she had found herself sitting next to Lilly or Oliver. What great best friends.
This period was actually lunch, and Lilly was off making up for a class she had to miss since she was with Miley. So Miley and Oliver were sitting at a table in the corner, hoping no one would notice them.
So far, they were safe. Therefore Miley popped the question, "When are you going to tell Lilly you like her?"
Oliver looked shocked at the question, and glared at Miley. "When the time is right."
"It's been a few years, when will the stupid time be stupid right?"
Oliver leaned closer to her, "I don't know, ok?"
Miley leaned in too, "No. Not ok. What if Lilly finds another guy? Then you'll never be able to tell her. What then Oliver? What then? And she completely thinks you're just leading her on, and flirting with her. And it hurts her, I can tell. Why can't you just freaking tell her?"
"Because I'm nervous Miley!"
"Why are you so freaking nervous? You know Lilly likes you."
"I'm not sure of that."
"You know you are Oliver! You're impossible!"
"Oh and are you going to laugh at me running into a tree again?"
Miley glared at him. "Oliver. You did not just bring that up?!"
"Sorry Miley. Just please stop trying to pressure me into this. I'm trying to think of a good way of doing this. I don't want to just say it, and then be done with it. I want it to be special." And he couldn't help but smile.
She smiled back, "You were thinking about her when you ran into the tree weren't you?"
"Of course I was. Who else would make me run into a tree, without even being there?"
"Aww... that is so adorable."
"Me running into a tree because I'm thinking about Lilly is adorable?" He looked at her awkwardly.
"Hmm... in a weird way, yes." She gave the weird look back to him.
Then they busted out laughing, it was great to be this way again. They both loved it.
After a few minutes, Lilly came flopping over, a mad look on her face. "Gah. Could Math be any worse? You owe me big time little Miss Miley." She pointed her finger in Miley's face.
Miley laughed, and pushed away Lilly's finger, "Of course."
"In Hannah dollars?" Lilly asked hopefully.
Miley nodded her head yes, then said, "No."
"Damn." Lilly whispered into the pudding she had brought over.
"This means it's time for me to go then, doesn't it?" Oliver asked, looking pathetic.
"Pretty much." Lilly said, her mouth stuffed with pudding. Oliver smiled, it was adorable to him.
"Wow." Oliver laughed at her, and she blushed. "Don't worry. I think it's adorable." And he winked.
He started his walk to History, and Lilly watched him the whole way there. Miley watched her watching him left. "Cute Lilly, no really it is." Miley was referring to her pudding beard.
"He is, isn't he?" Lilly asked, still staring after Oliver.
Taking a napkin, Miley wiped the sides of Lilly's mouth, not being able to look at her like that anymore.
After Oliver was out of sight, Lilly turned around. She leaned on one of her palms, and kept on looking at her pudding. "Lilly?"
"He winked at me."
"Did he really?" Miley was excited Oliver was finally taking action when it came to his feelings toward Lilly.
"Oh yeah..." Lilly was grinning so big, it was hard to see any other features on her face.
"Lilly? Lilly? LILLY!"
"What?" Lilly asked simply, finally looking up at Miley.
"You are so out of it." Miley laughed.
"What do you expect? He winked at me. Miley, THAT COULD MEAN ANYTHING." Miley chuckled. "Are you laughing at me?"
"No. I'm laughing at the situtation."
"What about the situtation?"
"Oh. Nothing. Nothing at all."
"Tell me?"
"Why would I tell a secret?" And she winked.
