(Lilly's POV)

When the figure pulled away, I looked deep into the chocolate brown eyes of the one and only…Oliver. That kiss…wow. It was different than anything I had ever experienced before. I was caught off guard, but I happen to be a pretty spontaneous person, so I could care less. The only downside of this kiss was…why? Why did Oliver do this? I wasn't going spend an hour thinking about it so I just asked him.

"What…what was that for?" Oliver's eyes were just as wide as mine. If you saw mine, you would now they were about the distance from one end of California to the other.

"I-i-i…ummm…I-i have to go," He said and ran off in the other direction. Why does he keep on leaving? I am not some stupid toy that Oliver and other boys can take advantage of. It's like he's playing a game with my heart…a game where he's winning.

(Oliver's POV)

Idiot! I am the biggest idiot in the world. Get this, first I kiss Lilly (wow) and then I run off. I don't know which of the two was more stupid. Actually, I do. No matter how random the kiss was and judging by the look on her face, how surprised she was…it was amazing. Like, there was no one else in the world but us…and now I sound like a sappy romance novel. Anyway, leaving was way dumber. Now I don't know how Lilly feels and it looks like I'm a coward. Which I am. But, I mean with Becca, I knew for a fact she liked me yet I still couldn't ask her out. I doubt Lilly even likes me, so if I got any farther, I probably would've puked. I'm just dumbfounded now. I have no idea what I'm going to do and no idea how to get the thought of the kiss out of my head.

(Monday at school)

(Miley's POV)

Okay, this is so weird. Oliver and Lilly haven't said a word to each other all day. Sure it's only 9:00 and school starts at 8:15 but still. They haven't made any eye contact and are like mute or something. Do you know how rare it is for Lilly to not talk? Um..yea, it's really unusual. There has to be some sort of interrogation done and since Jake is too much of a donut to notice, I ask them.

"Okay, what's up with y'all? I mean you guys haven't spoken or looked at each other all morning. And, Lilly when I called you, you barely said a word. What's going on?" the two just shrugged their shoulders.

"Can y'all say something, gosh darn it?!"

"Sure. I have to go to the bathroom," Lilly said, her expression still not changing from before.

"I'll go with," I said in hopes she would allow me to.

"Whatever," Lilly said. She looked really upset. I have no idea why but boy do I want to. I mean, she is my best friend; she should be able to tell me these things. Maybe, she's upset about us not spending much time together. It's worth a shot.

"Look Lil, is this about me and Jake?" I asked once we reached the bathroom.

"No."

"No?"

"Yes."

"Yes?!"

"No. Now, stop that." (A/N- Sorry I just had to put that in haha :D)

"Well, we are best friends; we should be able to talk about things."

"Uh-huh."

"So, talk."

"There is nothing to talk about, Miley."

"Call me crazy, but I don't believe you."

"Okay, you're crazy," Lilly said with fake smile.

"Please, just tell me."

"No, now why don't you just go back to Jake, your precious little boyfriend?"

"So you are upset about Jake!"

"No, it's just maybe if you didn't spend all your time with him, you would know what's going on."

"That's what I am trying to find out now." Lilly didn't respond after I said that. I think she was waiting for an apology and there was no point in arguing, so I gave her one.

"Lilly, I'm sorry. I haven't been being a good friend lately. I know it may seem as if Jake is the only person I want to hang out with but it's not true. I want to hang out with you and I miss you like crazy when I don't see you…. Do you forgive me?" I asked while giving the puppy-dog look.

"Sure, why not." We then shared a hug and when we pulled away, I noticed a look I had never really seen before…at least in Lilly, that is. It was sadness. Just pure, pure sadness.

"Lilly, please tell me what's wrong." Lilly looked the other way and said quietly,

"Oliver kissed me."

"WHAT?!?!" I screamed so loud it made both Lilly and me cover our ears.

"And then he left."

"What do you mean, left?"

"I mean ran off to G-d only knows where."

"Awww Lilly….wait." Once I said that Lilly looked directly in my eyes as if trying to read my mind. It turned out she could.

"Yea… I do." Lilly looked down sheepishly.

"Oh my G-d! I knew it!" Of course, I was referring to Lilly liking Oliver as more than a friend. I was so excited for Lilly, but the excitement soon died down once I remember about him leaving her alone in the dust.

"Do you want me to talk to him?" I asked.

"NO!...I mean, no. That's okay. I don't know why he kissed me and frankly, I don't want to."

"Why not?"

"Because I don't want to hear 'I was just caught up in the moment', or 'I was just experimenting', or 'I don't know'. I'm sick of excuses and lately Oliver has been making me crazy. I can't take any of this. It seems like me life just keeps on getting worse and worse."

"Lilly, I'm so sorry." I then pulled her in for another hug. "So what are you going to do?"

"Forget about it."

"You're going to forget about it. That's it? Lilly, you have to tell Oliver how you feel."

"I don't have to do anything and I'm not going to. Sure, that kiss was amazing beyond belief but it looks like I'm just going to have to forget about those 10 seconds of my life."

"No matter how wonderful they were?" I asked

"No matter how wonderful they were." And with that, the two of us left the bathroom and went to class.

A/N- Okay, that was a pretty lame chapter but I'm sick so it was the best I could do. I know I shouldn't be giving excuses but I just wanted to give you guys something but don't worry the drama isn't over!! I'm sorry I haven't been updating this story as much as I did in the beginning but I hope you are all still enjoying it. Thank you so much for your reviews. Only two more and I have 100!! Yay! Sorry about that little outburst but please review and put a smile on my face. I think there will only be like three or four more chapters :(. Well, thanks again, much love, Val.
