Hey everyone sorry about the lengthy update, had a ton of assignments to get through at school, hope you are enjoying the story, this chapter should be a lot longer.
Warning: Major Jake bashing here, if you haven't worked it out I don't like the self centered jerk.
Sorry, anyway on with the story…..
Oliver's mussing
I don't know how I can face anyone again, maybe if I just hide under my covers and never leave my room, yesterday would have never happened.
But it won't work; I can't do anything about shouting my secret to everyone.
Worst of all she knows and I don't want it to change how she sees me.
Not only does she know about what happened to me but she's taking that bastard back, he's the reason I blurted out my secret in the first place.
How she can love him is what confuses me.
But she does and that's what hurts the most.
Miley's mussing
I'm worried about Oliver, he forgot to call Lilly and I last night.
He didn't reply to the message I sent him before I went to bed last night.
I know what Jake was doing wasn't nice but he knows that I like him a lot; I didn't think taking Jake but would affect Oliver that much.
Looks like I was wrong.
Guess I will ask him at school, because I know something else is wrong.
I just hope he can tell me, I hate seeing him upset.
I miss his cute smiles, wait did I just say that.
Ok maybe I had a bad coffee this morning.
Yes that's it…
Because Oliver is my best friend and that's all he'll ever be.
I'll never feel anything else for him…
Will I?
Normal P.O.V
Oliver stood in front of Miley's door, with his heart beating like a jack hammer in his chest.
Why was he so nervous?
That's right, he was about to see Miley, who knew the one secret he did not want her to know.
She was so sweet and caring towards him yesterday after she had found out, that is what made it harder.
Facing Miley, after he had fallen in love with even more, if that was possible.
'She's your friend Oliver, that's all she will ever be' Oliver's brain snapped at him, his heat sunk in defeat and his hand knocked on the door before Oliver could change his mind.
"Come in" Jackson yelled out.
Oliver closed his eyes and breathed in and out for a minute, to calm his nerves; then walked inside.
Lilly was seated at the table next to Jackson.
Miley wasn't anywhere to be seen.
"Where's miles?" Oliver asked, glancing around and trying hard to ignore Lilly stares.
Finally she decided to speak.
"Oliver, I've been worried sick since yesterday. Miley told me you would call last night and you never did" she exclaimed and suddenly started crying.
This was unlike Lilly, she rarely cried unless something really affected her.
Jackson wrapped an arm around Lilly and comforted her.
"What's going on Oliver, what did you do to make Lilly so upset?" Jackson demanded.
"Nothing ok" Oliver said quickly.
Jackson just sneered and got up quickly.
Lilly grabbed his arm, forcing him back down.
"Don't ok, it's not your concern alright" Lilly said gently.
"But it is when it comes to you Lilly, you're my girl, I don't want to see you upset" Jackson explained.
Lilly smilled in adoration, she seemed to have forgot Oliver was there as she leant over and kissed Jackson.
They soon were making out passionately.
Oliver turned away as he did not want to see his best friend making out with a guy.
Miley took this time to decide to enter the room, and then looked like she regretted it.
"Ugh guy's, its way too early for that" Miley exclaimed.
Lilly and Jackson pulled apart to comment, Oliver didn't hear as he had zoned out.
He was captivated by Miley's presence and beauty.
She had walked over to the table to wait for her dad to make his famous pancakes; Oliver had turned up early for a change.
She sat down, Lilly and Jackson followed suit and they started a conversation.
Oliver watched Miley as she spoke, her eyes dancing in the light.
Fuck she was gorgeous, he had it bad.
Suddenly he was brought out of his gazing by a hand waving in front of his face.
"Hello earth to Oliver" a male voice said.
Oliver jumped back and laughed nervously.
Miley's dad just rolled his eyes and walked over to start breakfast.
Oliver was red in the face; he had just been caught staring at Miley by her dad, how embarrassing.
He just hoped Robbie ray thought he was thinking and not perving on Miley.
That wouldn't go down well.
"Well welcome back to planet Earth" Lilly said, as Oliver sat down.
"Welcome back from planet snog" Oliver shot back, even though his was more immature.
Jackson rolled his eyes at Oliver's silly comment.
"Ha-ha lame" Lilly said.
Oliver glanced over at Miley; she was staring at the table.
She didn't even look up.
"Miles" Oliver questioned.
Miley looked up at him.
He went to say something else when Miley burst into tears and raced from the room.
Robbie turned around, looking mad.
Oliver stood up and turned to follow when Jackson grabbed his arm.
"What have you done to my daughter?" Robbie asked, waving a spoon in Oliver's face.
"Oliver hasn't done anything" Lilly exclaimed.
"Let go of me Jackson, I need to talk to Miley" Oliver snapped.
"Tell us what's going on, first you made Lilly cry and now Miley's upset" Jackson snapped, clenching Oliver's arm harder.
Robbie looked at Lilly as if the idea of her crying was shocking.
"Err" Lilly said.
"Seriously I need to talk to her" Oliver snapped.
"What did you do" Jackson snapped.
"I told my friends about when I was raped alright" Oliver snapped angrily.
Jackson let go of Oliver's arm in shock and Robbie dropped his spoon, his eye's wide.
"Go talk to mile's" Jackson said in a soft voice, Robbie nodded to stunned to say anything.
Lilly looked down at the table, as if about to start crying again.
Jackson walked over to her incase.
Oliver walked over to the sliding door for the veranda and slid it open, cold air hitting his face.
Miley was seated on the long deck chair, facing away from him.
He sat down in silence and stared out at the street ahead.
"You have no idea how hard it has been to not tell anyone about this Miley, I don't need to you being afraid of how to be around me" Oliver said, he stared down at his hands.
He saw Miley's hand gently wrap around one of his hands; he linked their fingers together and looked up at Miley's tear streaked face.
She moved closer and threw her other arm around Oliver's shoulder, burying her head in his shoulder and sniffling a bit.
Oliver loved being close to her like this, sure he couldn't kiss her but at least her could hug her.
'Stop thinking about that, she's with Jake'
"I'm sorry about Jake ok; I talked to him last night and he said he didn't mean to take the joke too far" Miley suddenly spoke up.
Oliver pulled back and let go of Miley's hand.
"Can we please just not talk about him ok, I don't want you or anyone to tread on eggshells around me. I'm still the same Oliver, except with a more terrifying past" Oliver said.
Miley just nodded, sniffing some more.
She reached up and wiped her face and blushed.
"My face is a mess" she mumbled.
Oliver refrained at comment; even with mascara running down her checks she still looked beautiful.
Every time he saw her she took his breath away.
Miley frowned; she had whipped out a compact mirror and had noticed her mascara stained checks.
"I better get inside and fix this, I must look great for Jake" she whispered.
She stood up and headed to the sliding door; she paused by it and glanced at Oliver who tired to not let on how angry he was about the Jake comment.
"Are you coming in?" she asked.
"In a minute" he said.
Miley nodded and disappeared inside and headed upstairs before her dad or anyone else could question her.
Oliver sighed; a wonderfull moment between them had to be ruined by the sheer mention of Jake.
Then again this time was the same as any time before it.
That small moment made his heart betray him and give him false hope that she may feel the same; this hope was soon shattered by the mention of ego boy.
Oliver opened the sliding door and headed inside, there was no point even trying to get worked up about Jake 'fucking' Ryan.
"Is the ok now?" Jackson asked.
Oliver nodded, that was all that mattered in the end because he would sacrifice his own happiness for her.
HM
Oliver got out of Jackson's car once they arrived at school, he didn't want to be asked any more question about the rape.
Robbie had asked him plenty but Oliver had managed to get out of answering.
Jackson had asked some in the car but Lilly told him to stop it.
He waited for Lilly to stop making out with Jackson, finally they headed inside.
Miley had been in the backseat txting Jake but quickly left the car before Jackson locked up.
Lilly waved to Jackson as he left to meet Copper before homeroom.
Oliver opened his locker and searched for his timetable.
After scanning his first two classes and grabbing his books, he closed his locker only to be met with Amber and Ashley.
Miley and Lilly were no where to be seen.
"What do you two want?" Oliver asked rudely.
"Is it true you were raped by a clown?" Amber asked and Ashley smirked.
"What, who told you this bullshit?" Oliver lied.
"Jake Ryan. He's been telling everyone plus some students said you shouted it yesterday at the carnival" Ashley answered and Amber nodded.
"Fuck off slut's" Oliver shouted and hurried off; a few people saw him and started whispering behind their hands.
Oliver found Lilly by her locker; he walked over and stood next to her.
She shut her locker and spun around.
"Oh hey, what's wrong?" Lilly asked in concern
"Where's miles and Jake 'soon to be dead' Ryan?" Oliver asked.
"Oliver, don't" Lilly said.
"He's not worth your anger or getting suspended"
"How about telling the whole school about me being raped, is that reason enough not to rip his eyes out" Oliver snapped.
Lilly gasped.
"He did what?" she exclaimed.
"You heard; where are they? Couldn't see them by their lockers" Oliver asked.
"I don't know, Miley raced off to find Jake. They're probably at ho…Oliver don't do anything stupid" Lilly shouted the last bit as Oliver had started running off.
"He's going to do something stupid' she muttered and raced off after him.
Oliver walked over to the homeroom and looked inside; he saw Miley and Jake making out near the front.
There were only a few people in there and they were shooting disgusted looks at Miley and Jake.
Oliver felt sick watching them kiss, she deserved someone better.
'Someone like you, you mean'
Oliver ignored that and opened the door and stormed right up to Miley and Jake.
Lilly hurried in after him and walked over, grabbing his arm.
He shrugged her off.
"Miley, Jake" he said.
They pulled apart.
"Hey Oliver, um what's up?" Miley asked.
"I need to talk to your boyfriend" Oliver answered curtly.
"What's wrong?" Jake asked calmly, running his hand along Miley's arm and smirking.
Lilly glared at him but he didn't notice as he was looking at Oliver.
"We need to talk, so let's go out there" Oliver stated, tempted to break off Jake's wandering hand.
"Anything you can say to me, you can say to my girl too" Jake said, still running has hand on Miley's arm.
"Fine, stop telling my business to everyone" Oliver snapped.
"What are you on about" Jake retorted.
"Bimbo and Barbie told me you have been telling everyone about me being raped. Stop fucking doing that ok" Oliver hissed.
"Bimbo and Barbie?" Lilly questioned.
"Amber is Barbie and Ashley is Bimbo, ok" Oliver answered.
Lilly grinned at the prospect of the new nicknames.
"Well I haven't been spreading shit, so tell Amber and Ashley to stop lying" Jake snapped.
"Sadly enough I'd believe them over you" Oliver snapped.
"Ouch" Jake said sarcastically.
"Guy's stop it; you said you wouldn't do this anymore Jake. Oliver I thought you weren't mad anymore?" Miley asked.
"That was until I heard he was telling my business to people" Oliver snapped.
"For the last time I haven't alright, get your facts right before you start shooting you mouth off" Jake snapped and stood up menacingly.
"What are you going to do?" Oliver asked loudly, the few people in the room looking over in interest.
"Nothing, I have more class then to punch people" Jake snapped, referring to yesterday.
"Well I don't" Oliver shot back and punched Jake's face for the second time, in the same place as yesterday which was already sporting a bruise.
"Let's see make up on your lame arse set cover that" Oliver snapped.
"Oliver" Lilly said, shaking her head in disbelief.
"What I'm not sorry, he keeps pushing me" Oliver snapped.
Miley had pulled Jake up, who was scowling.
"How could you" Miley whispered.
"Whatever, I'm leaving" Oliver snapped and stormed off before anyone could stop him.
HM
Oliver wandered the halls for a few minutes until he was hauled into the principal's office.
Someone had told on him from homeroom, he was only given a weeks of detentions so he wasn't complaining.
The look on Jake's face and the broken nose was satisfaction enough.
He would do it again and again if he had too but the look on Miley's face had brought him down from planet ego and crashed him into planet guilt.
Not guilt for hitting Jake but for making Miley upset, he never wanted her upset by what he had done again even if it meant putting up with Jake.
Because he would do anything for Miley.
Oliver went to his classes and attempted to concentrate but Miley ignoring him didn't help his concentration.
He left his last class in a bad mood; Lilly had tried talking to Miley but ended up getting snapped at.
So she obviously wouldn't be forgiving him any time soon, for damaging Jake's precious face.
Fuck he hated that cunt with a passion, he was sorry for hurting Miley but not for punching the git.
Oliver shut his locker and let out a sigh; he wandered the halls and tried to spot Miley.
He was hoping to catch her before she left with Jackson and caused him to miss a ride.
He found her talking to Jake by his limo, no shock there.
"Miles, can we talk?" Oliver asked, butterflies flapping in his stomach.
She always made him nervous; he wanted to make her happy all the time even if he wasn't as perfect as Jake in her eye's.
Jake wrapped his arm around Miley's shoulder and sneered at Oliver.
Miley looked at Oliver and sighed.
"Only if you apologize to Jake, he has work in a few days' you better hope there is enough make up" Miley said.
"There will be" Oliver said and glared at Jake who sneered back.
"I'd hate to damage his A- list career"
Jake just smirked in reply and kissed Miley's forehead.
"Better get going Hun, I'll call you later" he said and disappeared into his limo; not before flipping Oliver off who just mouthed 'fuck you' back.
The limo drove off and Miley turned to Oliver and folded her arms and raised her eyebrows.
"That wasn't exactly an apology but I guess its better then nothing, I want you to try and get along with Jake Oliver" Miley said.
Oliver just nodded.
"Ill try it's just he isn't ok" Oliver said.
Miley ran a hand through her lovely hair.
"I'll talk to him ok, if you try then I'm sure he will follow suit" she said.
"Well ok but only for you" Oliver said.
Miley grinned.
"That's all I ask" she said.
Jackson and Lily arrived, walking over to his car.
"Well theirs our ride" Miley said.
"Um I might walk, need to think over some stuff ok" Oliver said.
"You sure/" Miley said.
"Yes I'm fine ok, tell Lilly I'll call you guys later" Oliver said, turning around.
"You better this time" Miley said.
"Will do" Oliver called over his shoulder, he turned watching Miley heading over to the car.
He would call because he wanted to hear her voice, he couldn't get enough of her.
'if only you knew how badly I love you, how I would do anything for you. I would never do what Jake does to you because I could never hurt you' Oliver thought as Jackson's car drove off.
He turned and starting walking home.
He knew deep inside he couldn't keep loving someone who may never love him back, he would eventually have to move on.
But at the moment that idea seemed absurd, he was holding on too some hope that Miley might feel the same way.
That they could live happily ever after like the fairytales but life was no fairytale.
Because he was alone watching the girl he loved date a jerk.
He sadly walked home, one thought consuming him.
'If only life was like a fairytale'
TBC….
A/N
Well sorry if that seemed short, I lost my place for awhile.
I liked where it ended though and there is plenty planned for the next chapter which will hopefully be longer.
Jake is becoming worse and I am so tempted to have hit a Frisbee.
But in order for this story to work he has to remain here for now and I have to hide my disgust but I'm getting there.
Well anyway let me know what you think, oh and I have a question for the next chapter, should Oliver tell his parents about the clown.
Just wondering what you reckon, I have ideas for whether he should or not.
Also there is a chance the clown may be caught, you will find out next chapter.
Well you know the drill, make the buttons day (and mine) and head on down bellow and hit submit review.
If you do I may send some virtual cookies and star bucks.
….if only )
Thanks to the following reviewers: Iheartdisney, BlueEyegirl19, xstepherzzz and random person.
Well till next time,
KAT
