I had free time to write in English class, hence this chapter. I'll be honest, I had NO clue where this story was going until about this chapter... I have a heading now. Oh and yesterday I was driving down the freeway and there was a dude riding his horse on the shoulder. I had to laugh cause it was a only in Texas thing or something, sorry random I know. :)
It was Monday morning and Miley Stewart overslept. She was running back and forth through her room. Different outfits flying around the room as she decided they were no good. Looking at the clock, then looking back at her outfit, it'd have to do. There was a knock at her door, Robbie Ray entered.
"You ready to go yet?" he tried to push "It's your first day you know. Your brother already went ahead."
Miley grabbed the rest of her stuff "How nice of him, I take it you're taking me in then?"
"Not exactly." Robbie Ray flashed keys in front of her.
Miley took them "Really?!"
He nodded "It's a used car. I want you to seem as normal as possible but it's a car."
She ran outside and saw her baby. It was only a few years old, not a rusted piece of junk. Miley gave her dad a hug "Thank you."
"Yeah yeah now get going before you're late." he pushed her along.
Miley got in her car excitedly and drove off.
Lilly rolled over in her bed looking at the clock. She jumped up.
"Damn it!" Grabbing her phone, she realized it was dead. Lilly put on the first outfit that came into sight, threw her bag over her shoulder, and grabbed her skateboard.
Flying out the door, she jumped on her skateboard and rode to school as fast as possible. Lilly raced down the blocks and was making pretty good time. She smiled at this as she began to cross another street when she heard tires brake, a second of pain, and then blacked out.
"Hey!" Lilly heard a voice as she started to come to.
Grabbing her head, Lilly slowly opened her eyes. A blurred figured was kneeled in front of her.
"Oh my gosh! Are you ok?" the voice was soft and southern.
Lilly mumbled a few words, everything was fuzzy.
She felt a hand holding on to hers. Blinking some more, her vision became more clear.
The voice belonged to a pretty brunette, Lilly felt funny when she stared into her eyes. They seemed familiar.
"Are you badly hurt? Man I'm so sorry!" the girl checked around for damages.
Lilly tried to smile "Nothing I can't shake off." she slowly sat up. Surprisingly nothing actually hurt too bad, just a little sore.
The brunette smiled in relief "I just get the car and already I'm taking people out. Oh hey I'm Miley Stewart, I'm kinda new here."
She had an amazing smile and Lilly was dazed by it.
Miley looked concerned "Hey you sure you're ok?"
Lilly snapped out of it, "Oh yeah sorry I was thinking about… something. The names Lilly Truscott. So do you go to Seaview?"
"Today is gonna be my first day. I'm kinda nervous actually." Miley rubbed her own arm.
"I'll show you around if you want so you don't get lost, and I guess I can be your friend." Lilly laughed "I just hope this isn't your method of making friends or your gonna be in trouble."
"Ha ha funny." Miley slapped Lilly's arm. The curse of pain from Lilly reminded Miley she just hit the girl with her car. "Oh god, sorry I suck."
"Nah don't worry about it, I can be kinda a pain in the ass. So we should be heading to school." Lilly got up with the help of her new friend.
Miley propped Lilly up "Are you sure you're well enough to go?"
Lilly winced when she grabbed her backpack and board "Yep… all good."
Opening the door "Do you want a ride? It's the least I can do." Miley offered.
Lilly walked up to the passenger side "Sure, I'd rather be on the inside of this thing then outside in your path."
Miley shot her a look
"Sorry, my pain in the assness again" Lilly flashed her a smile and got in the car.
As they drove to school, Lilly had Miley name off her classes. She was pleased to find out that her and Miley shared English and Chemistry together.
"So where'd ya come from?" Lilly asked while rubbing her sore leg.
"Tennessee, my family came over here for a change of scenery." Miley looked over at Lilly and touched the area Lilly was rubbing. Covering her face, Lilly blushed deeply. "Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital or something?"
"If I promise to go to the school nurse, would it make you feel better?" Lilly was relieved and disappointed when Miley took her hand away.
Miley smiled "Much" She pulled into the school parking lot.
Lilly was about to get out when Miley told her to wait. Miley ran out of the car to Lilly's side and opened the door. "Here ya go."
The blonde laughed while getting out "You know you don't have to be nice to me just cause you almost killed me."
"So I don't have to carry your books?" Miley joked.
"Only if you insist." Lilly escorted her to the entrance.
Since they were late and everyone was already in class, the halls were empty. Lilly gave her a quick tour of the places Miley needed to know about.
"and over there is the cafeteria." Lilly pointed off to the right. When Miley looked over at it, Lilly couldn't help but check her out. She was cute, but there was something more to her.
Miley turned around and caught Lilly staring but shook it off. Looking down at her paper "So where's locker number 239?"
Lilly snapped out of her daze, feeling dumb she grabbed the paper from Miley's hand "Uh right over here actually." 'Your such a goober Truscott'
Miley just stared at the girl in front of her as they walked to the locker. Lilly's the first real person she's met so far in California. As her of course, not Hannah. This girl was unlike anyone she ever came across in Tennessee. Miley was intrigued.
Miley jumped at the sound of Lilly's voice "Here's 239." Lilly watched the new girl open her locker. "Alright we're set?" Miley nodded.
Lilly ushered her along "Ok let me walk you to your first class then."
"Wait." Miley grabbed Lilly's arm, seeing a blush come across the Lilly's face, Miley let go "Where's the nurses office?"
Lilly was confused "Why do y-" she remembered what she said to Miley.
"You promised." Miley smiled.
A promise is a promise. Lilly sighed and walked in the direction of the nurses office, Miley followed.
Making Miley wait outside, Lilly entered the office. When the nurse asked what was wrong, Lilly lied and said she fell off her skateboard. Just in case, she didn't want to get Miley in trouble. The nurse checked her out, in the end all Lilly needed were some pain pills. Exiting the office she saw Miley jump up "So are you ok?"
Lilly made her best attempt at a sad face "She says a have a few months to live."
Miley folded her arms "NOT funny."
Pushing her slightly Lilly laughed "Lighten up Miley. If you wanna be friends with me, you're gonna have to be ready for anything."
Miley smiled lightly but covered it to appear to still be mad.
Lilly just shook her head "C'mon you, let's get the inevitable over with… first period. Which we have like, 25 minutes left."
She walked Miley to her class "Good luck in there, I heard she's brutal."
Miley looked inside scared.
Lilly put a hand on her shoulder "Don't worry, if she's too mean, you can just run her over."
"Ha ha, it's nice to know you'll never let me live that down." She stuck her tongue out and walked into the classroom.
Lilly overheard her tell the teacher she was lost. After making sure Miley was gonna make it, she walked to her Economics class.
She spotted Oliver towards the back of the class, Lilly smiled 'He saved me a seat thank god'
"Miss Truscott, is there a reason you're so unnecessarily late?" A angry, but pretty woman stood at the board tapped her foot.
"Sorry Ms. Jones, there was a really hot girl in need of help and you know me." Lilly smirked.
Ms. Jones gave her a look "Sit. Truscott. Now."
Lilly smiled as she went to sit in the seat behind Oliver. When Ms. Jones wasn't looking, Lilly leaned in to Oliver "You'll never guess what happened."
Oliver kept looking ahead but whispered "You got swept off your feet by another pretty face?"
"You could say that." Lilly laughed at that.
The teacher paused for a second, then continued.
Oliver went on "Well what about Hannah Montana?"
Lilly pushed his head "Don't worry I wouldn't forget about her."
Turning his head, Oliver looked at Lilly "Well you just dished out a bunch of money for her."
"True. Maybe she'll fall for me and we'll live happily ever after." Lilly said dreamily.
"Ok. One, it's not the real you. Two, I thought you had a thing for the new girl?" Oliver looked lost.
Lilly threw her hands up "Seriously Ollie, don't you know my flings come and go? She's cute, but I could easily just move to the next girl. You kn-"
"Lillian Truscott! Is there something more pressing then me right now?" Ms. Jones was standing next to the both of them.
"Aw Ms. Jones don't you know you're the only one for me?" Lilly gave her a wink.
Ms. Jones blushed but pointed angrily to the door "Principal's office, now!"
Lilly stood up, waved to Oliver and blew Ms. Jones a kiss.
She passed by Miley's class as she headed to the office. Looking in she saw Miley scribbling notes, looking up at the board every now and then. Lilly had to laugh at her determination. Sighing she continued on to the office.
"Hey Patty." Lilly waved to the secretary as she entered the office.
The older woman smiled "Lilly are you in trouble already? It's the first day."
Lilly shrugged "I don't know how these things happen."
Patty laughed "Principal Johnson is already expecting you." She went to open the door for Lilly.
Principal Johnson gestured Lilly to sit down. "Ms. Trusc-"
Lilly held up her hand "How bout we skip the potential lectures and just give me the punishment?"
He nodded "Well it was going to be one day's detention but that just bumped it to a week. Any more antics today and you'll gain a week for each one. Are we clear?"
"Crystal. Are we done?" Lilly folded her arms.
He just sighed and pointed to the door.
She got up to leave, the bell rang, looking at her watch she saw it was time for English. She rushed to the class hoping to catch a spot next to Miley. Entering the class she saw Miley was sitting in the front row, there was a seat available behind her. Lilly groaned 'Of course she has to sit in the front' Sucking it up she sat behind her "How you doing stranger?" She poked Miley in the back.
Miley jumped, when she saw it was Lilly she smiled "Hey! How was first period?"
Lilly rubbed the back of her neck and shrugged "Weeks worth detention."
"What?!" Miley looked shocked.
"What can I say? They're out to get me." Lilly leaned back in her desk.
Miley just shook her head "Bad Lilly, I was gonna ask if you wanted to go to the mall after school but I guess that's outta the question." The bell rang and Miley turned around.
Lilly frowned, feeling dumb now. Their English teacher spent the class period going over the rules and all Lilly could do was stare at the back of Miley's head.
When the bell rang, Miley turned to Lilly "I'll cya at lunch?"
Lilly nodded "Sure"
Miley waved and headed to the next class.
Lilly walked to History determined to stay out of trouble for the rest of the day.
Lilly spotted Oliver seated at their usually spot outside against the wall. They ate their lunch there since the first day Freshman year, it's a tradition.
"Hey you" Lilly sat down beside him.
Oliver swallowed his food "Dude I can't believe you hit on Ms. Jones, wait ok it's you so I CAN believe it. What did you get?"
"A whole week" Lilly sniffed her food to make sure it was edible. Satisfied, she took a bite.
"Shame" Oliver took another bite. A few moments later, Lilly heard him make a weird noise and his jaw dropped causing food to fall out.
Waving her hand in his face, "Ollie? Dude you okay?" Noticing he was staring at something, she followed his gaze.
There she was, Miley was walking towards them.
When Miley reached them, she looked down at Lilly "There you are. Why y'all out here?"
"Tradition" Lilly made sure her eyes took her time getting to Miley's face. 'That outfit looks amazing on her' She gestured for Miley to sit down.
Miley looked down at the pavement "I really don't wanna get this skirt dirty."
Lilly laughed "Of course." She took off her hoodie and placed it down for Miley to sit on. "Is that better?"
Miley sat "Yeah, Thanks"
Lilly finally noticing Oliver again "Oh! Miley this is Oliver Oken my best friend since like… forever. Ollie this is Miley, the NEW girl." She tried to put emphasis on this so he'd get the hint.
"Hello" Oliver extended his hand and Miley took it.
'What an ass!' Lilly growled.
Lilly spent the rest of lunch listening to Oliver give Miley the third-degree. He was so gonna get it later.
The bell rang 'Thank god' Lilly never thought she'd say those words. She said bye to Miley and pulled Oliver along.
"What are you doing Oken?" Lilly pulled him to a unoccupied spot in the hallway.
Oliver shrugged "What do you mean?"
Lilly looked around "You were totally hitting on Miley, what if I like her huh?"
"She seems like a nice girl Lils and to be honest, you're kinda the heart breaker type. You've gone through more girls then I have." Oliver looked embarrassed at that one.
"So? I'm just trying to find the right one." Lilly was feeling pretty bad now.
Oliver cupped her chin in his hand "Look Lils, I love you and I know it's been hard since Jessica broke your heart. But Miley? One, I'm pretty sure she's straight. Two, even if she wasn't, I just don't want you bringing an innocent girl down."
She sighed, he was right 'Damn him' Noticing the time "Ollie I gotta get to class, no more trouble for me today. Cya in Chem.!" Lilly ran to class leaving Oliver standing there.
Lilly made it to the back seat in her Algebra II class. When the bell rang, the teacher went straight to putting notes up on the board. Lilly groaned at the practice equations the teacher put up. After a few attempts, she threw down her pencil and drifted off into thought. What Oliver said, he was right that Lilly went through girls like shoes. It was hard for her though, she didn't want to get hurt again. So Lilly did the only thing she thought she could do, not fall for anyone again. Lilly believed in challenges now, not love, more like conquests. She figured that's what she was doing with this whole Hannah thing. Lilly sighed, there was something about Miley that made her feel uneasy. She couldn't have uneasy. Oliver was right, Lilly was gonna have to stay away from that one.
"Lillian?" The voice brought Lilly back to high school.
"Yeah?" Lilly watched a very annoyed looking Mr. Brown.
"How about we try to pay attention?" He shook his finger.
For the rest of the class, that's what she struggled to do. When the bell rang Lilly jumped out from her seat and rushed out the door to Chemistry. She felt a rush of pain as someone ran into her. "Hey why don't you watc-" Lilly turned and saw Miley picking up books that were dropped. "Oh" Lilly bent down to help but stopped when pain came back to her.
Miley smiled sweetly "Lilly I think I'm bound to kill you at this rate."
Lilly laughed "It's lookin that way. Are you pumped for Chemistry?"
"You know it!" Miley rolled her eyes.
They both walked into the class together and spotted Oliver sitting at one of the tables. Miley and Lilly sat down next to him.
"Hey Oliver." Miley waved to him.
"Hey Miley… Lilly." Oliver shot her a look.
Lilly shrugged "Hey." She gave him a "Don't give me that look" look.
When the teacher started the lecture, Lilly laid her head down on the counter and fell asleep.
Miley looked down and noticed the sleeping blonde, she smiled at her. Looking up, she noticed Oliver was staring at her. Miley snapped her attention back to the board. 'Don't do this to yourself again Stewart.'
