AN: Hey everybody, again I have another update for you. This chapter was a lot harder for me to write because the other three were actually similar to situations I've been in and I had to create this one almost completely from fiction. I think there are gunna be like two maybe three more chapters to this story, but again it depends.

I think the next chapter will have the explanation of the title for y'all. It's a song title if that helps any of you maybe guess it. I know some of you may have been wondering why my stories are rather short; I have to a tendency to write like a scientist or reporter getting start to the point, but whatever. I like it and I feel it still has the depth.

Anyway, ya know the disclaimer crap, enjoy!

Chapter 4

"So you heard all of that huh?" Lilly asked trying to gauge her best friend. Like she had earlier reasoned, Miley didn't seem to be upset but that didn't mean she wasn't. The fact that she was staring Lilly down and wearing only her bathrobe only helped to make the situation more difficult for Lilly.

"Yeah, I did." Miley leaned against the counter across from where Lilly was standing. "I never knew you felt that way Lils. I mean I know you were mad about Joe and everything but –

"Miles I'm so sorry. I didn't want you to find out that way, well the way I had it planned I didn't really want you to find out at all because I care about you too much to not have you in my life. If this makes things awkward and you hate me now I understand, but I'm not gunna lie it would kill me to not have you around," Lilly rambled, her gaze shifting between Miley's eyes and the floor.

"Whoa Lils calm down, I could never hate you. You are my best friend. I mean, yeah we've had our problems but you've always been there for me. For every guy who broke my heart, for all the frustrations of growing up, through all the drama caused because of Hannah, you were always there when I needed you." Miley had an unmistakable look in her eyes. "I could never hate you Lil because Lil……Lilly I'm in love with you."

Lilly looked up, her heart stopping. "Best friend say what?" Lilly said stealing one of Miley's trademark lines. Could this at all be possible? As far as she knew Miley had always been interested in guys, more like crazy about guys; she had never mentioned anything about an attraction towards women. Then again, she thought the exact same thing about herself.

"That right there," Miley said pointing towards the door, "What you said to Joe. That is more than any guy has ever done for me. And while I was listening to you, I realized that you are right. No matter what has happened with any guy, you have always been the one to put me back together. You have never intentionally hurt me and I can always depend on you Lil. You're my best friend and you always will be, no matter what happens on this crazy journey we call life."

Lilly's moment of hope was suddenly deflated. All of this emotion and I get all excited thinking she really means she loves me but she only means it as my best friend. I so got my hopes up right there and she completely took what I said the wrong way. I mean I guess that's ok, she knows how important she is to me but that isn't what I freakin' meant. Why can something so wrong, be so close to being right and then just not happen? What is the world doing to me?

"Oh, ok. So you love me because I'm a great best friend. Sorry I totally thought we were talking about a different level, ya know since I kinda freaked when you walked in and I completely went off on Joe and told him I was slowly falling in love with you and then you wanted to talk and I didn't really know what to say and -"

Miley pushed off the counter she was leaning against and stopped Lilly's rambling by pushing her up against the door she was still standing near. Surprised, slightly frightened and completely turned on by Miley's sudden movement and the fact that she was nearly naked against her, Lilly wasn't quite sure what to make of the brunette now standing over her with their bodies so close.

"No Truscott. You heard me right the first time." Miley grinned, thoroughly sending Lilly over the edge. As both pairs of blue eyes locked, Lilly could have sworn she saw lust flash through Miley's stare. "I'm in love with you."

Lilly was in a complete state of shock that she couldn't move. She wanted to kiss Miley, kiss her best friend and the love of her life but she was so surprised for a second time in three minutes that she could not move at all. Whoa. Lilly's mind was blown.

As if reading her thoughts Miley said, "And even though I really want to do what I may just do in another second if I'm not careful, I have more I need to say."

"Miles, you don't have to say anything. If I know you as well as I know I do, I know what you're thinkin' and feelin'," Lilly said as she regained her composure. She didn't realize she had wanted Miley for so long and now that she was within reach, it was taking ever ounce of her self control not to jump her right then and there.

"I know, but I need to. I need you to feel the intensity of what I felt listenin' to you talk to Joe. Listenin' to you fight for me." Lilly hadn't thought of it in that way but in a way that is exactly what she had just done. Miley stepped back to relieve the sexual tension building a bit before she continued. "I have loved you for a long time Lil. And up until just know, I never realized I was in love with you. I have always thought you were one of the most beautiful people I have ever met, inside and out but I convinced myself that it was just admiration for a friend." She paused thinking of how to work what she was about to say. "Lils, I could never love another woman, another person like I love you and up until just now I was scared of the idea since I didn't really think it was ever possible to be with you. I had resigned to loving you as your best friend. But I'm not afraid anymore because I know you will always be with me on this one no matter what."

Miley paused for about half a second to think. "Is this what kept you up the other night, something about me and you? When I told ya you could talk to me?"

"Yeah, sorta." Lilly replied. "I actually had a dream, one of many that I have had over the past like six months or so. And it really got me going and confused because I didn't think that I could actually be in love with my best friend."

"So what was up with these dreams?" Miley inquired.

"Well, how 'bout I tell you later? Or better yet," Lilly smirked, her thoughts replaced with her lust filled dreams, "I can just show you. There is something you have to do though."

Miley noticed Lilly's smirk and flirted back with a husky reply, "Oh yeah, and what's that?"

"Come here." Lilly whispered huskily pulling Miley to her by the collar of her shirt. Both had similar thoughts running through their heads as their lips met for the first time. The sensations that overtook them instantly were beyond compare to anything either of them had felt in their lives. The softness of each others lips, the skin under each others hands, the scent of their perfume all mingled together in the most exhilarating five seconds of their lives. Tentatively they both pulled away from each other, Lilly afraid all of this was just another dream.

Staring back at her this time, instead of her bedroom ceiling in the black night were the clear cerulean blue eyes of her best friend. Relief flooded through her body as she confirmed that this was indeed reality. "I am sooo glad this isn't just another dream."

"Ah, so this is what your dreams were about." Miley giggled feigning innocence to the subject matter. Truthfully, she had previously had dreams and thoughts similar to those of Lilly and she was ecstatic that this was actually happening. Miley continued to flirt, "So what else did you do in these dreams of yours?

"You." Lilly purred completely serious as she stared into her soon to be lover's eyes with an intensity and desire that could have melted glaciers. With that Lilly kissed Miley for the second time, reigniting the passion that was smoldering inside the young women. This second kiss was far more passionate than the previous one as pent up desires were let loose. Both girls felt a need for the other so strong and so indescribable that both frightened and excited them at the same time.

Miley couldn't have been more happy. "I love you Lilly," she moaned as Lilly moved Miley's neck.

Propelled by Miley's voice, Lilly pushed forward quickly steering Miley towards and then up onto the kitchen table. In the same movement, she also undid the tie keeping Miley's bathrobe closed. Staring down into Miley's eyes she felt like she was on top of the world, "I love you too Miles. I want to make you the happiest women on the planet."

"By loving me, you already have," Miley whispered before she pulled Lilly down to her again, with the deepest most passionate kiss yet. And with that, they expressed their love, need and desire for each other in ways previous unknown to them both.

Hope y'all still like it, you know the drill!
