Disclaimer: I don't own anything but the plot of this story and other details.

A/N: Hello all! Thank you for the reviews. I'd appreciate if there were a bit more though. Haha. I'm so demanding. But thank you everyone that did review. You are the bestest. So yea, please read and review. It makes me happy, and when I'm happy I write more, and when I write more. I make you (well some people) happy! So like the song, "Happiness runs in a circular motion." (Even though I heavily despise that song.)


Really, what was up with Miley? Why was she acting so weird? Do I offend? I lifted my arm and sniffed. No. At least I don't think I do. I put my arm back down. Why is going on? Maybe I should ask her later or something. I sat down at my desk. The math teacher Mrs. Dink was writing the problem of the day on the board. I reached into my backpack, and pulled out my math book, and copied down what was on the board. The questioin was fairly easy. I looked around the room. Miley sat in front of me (again, but I'm still not making any objections) and Lily sat beside me. I tapped Miley on the shoulder. She tilted her head a little.

"Miles, is everything okay? You seem kinda…" I thought of the right word to say.

"Off." The teacher looked up from her desk.

"No talking. This is a silent activity. I don't see why anyone would need to talk during this. If anyone has any problems with that rule, they can discuss it with Mr. Craig. Is that understood?" She yelled from her desk. Miley turned back around to her desk, and a rip sounded. I waited, and a few seconds later, she threw the piece of paper over her shoulder, which landed right in the center of my notebook.

"I'm fine, but thanks for asking. Really, it's just really sleepy. That's all." It read. Wait a minute! That was my excuse before! Maybe something really is up? No it can't be. Why am I thinking like this any way?

"Okay, your time for the problem of the day is up! Would anyone like to tell us the answer?" The teacher stood up from her desk, and circled in between the desks, looking at everyone's answers as she walked by. Lily raised her hand.

"Yes Lily?" The teacher stood in the front of the room. Her arms were crossed across her chest as she impatiently waited for the answer. Lily replied, and the teacher offered to put the question on the board for those who didn't fully understand the question. The only thing I don't really understand is why Miley's acting so weird. Would you care to write that explanation on the board? I scribbled something quickly down on the piece of paper.

"Are you sure? We can talk about it if you want. You know I'm here for you Miles." I put the piece of paper on Miley's shoulder. She looked at my hand, and got the piece of paper. She leaned over, and a few pencil sounds were made. The kind when you write something really fast and the pencil tip taps against the desk making little clicking noises.

"Yep. I know Oliver. Thanks. We should stop. I don't want to get in trouble." I crumpled up the piece of paper, and shoved it into my pocket. I looked at Miley. She shifted around in her seat as though she felt kind of uncomfortable. She kept on repositioning herself on the chair.

"Miss Stewart, would you be so kind as to not distract the class with your constant fidgeting?" The teacher called out from the front of the classroom.

"Sorry." Miley answered with her head down. She crossed her legs one last time. I looked up at the board. Mrs. Dink was explaining some theory that she had already told us about before. No one had cared to tell her we had already been over it. It was so that we could be able to not pay attention in class, while she was going on and on about the same things over and over again. Sure it was mean to take advantage of her bad memory, but we needed it too. It was when we could get some of our piling homework done, or talk about basis issues that needed to be discussed. We all didn't have the same lunch, and apparently one can have a lot of friends.

"Mrs. Dink. I don't get this, can you explain it one more time?" asked someone from the front of the room. The teacher flipped though her papers.

"What don't you get? We have extra help after school, and I'll explain it to you then. You are weighing the rest of the class down with constant interruptions." Well that was mean. What if someone really didn't get what was going on? It's almost like calling someone stupid. Just then the bell rang. Well that class was short. I put my things into my bag, and stood up.

"Hey Oliver!" Someone cried my name. I turned around being careful not to trip over anything. Lily stood behind me.

"Hey Lily, do you have any idea what's going on with Miley? She's acting kind of weird." We started walking in the direction of our next class. Only Lily was in the same class with me. Miley had a different class. Lily shook her head.

"I don't know. Why? How is she acting weird?" I pulled Lily aside before she walked into somebody's open locker.

"Oohmpf!" She said as she ran into me.

"I dunno. It's just that she's acting. Different. Like something's wrong or she doesn't feel right." I continued to walk.

"Thanks and oh. I don't know. I didn't notice that she was acting different. I'll talk to her about it later though." She nodded while keeping her eyes straight ahead.

"Okay. Thanks Lily. Can you tell me what's up after? I'd like to know." Lily quickly glanced at me.

"Did you ask her why she was acting like that?" She asked. I nodded.

"She said she was tired. I'm not so sure though." I made a right turn. Lily kept on walking straight. I pulled her arm so that she was walking in the right direction.

"Sorry, I was thinking. But any ways, you know Miley. She probably had another--" She looked around to see if anyone was listening. Once it was clear, she looked back at me.

"She probably had another Hannah thing last night, and didn't get home 'till late." I nodded. That could be right. But wait. Didn't Lily usually go with Miley to her Hannah events? Wouldn't Lily know if she went anywhere?

"Don't you usually go with Miley to her 'events'?" I put air quotes around the word event. Lily looked around in a slight panic.

"Uhh. Not always. Sometimes Lily knows I have stuff to do. Like last night I had a…" she looked around for something to help her make up an excuse. "I went bowling! Yea that's it bowling! With my mom. She said we needed more mother daughter bonding time, so we went bowling." I raised my eyebrow.

"Oh really?" What were they both hiding from me? Shouldn't I have a right to know what's happening to my best friends? Wait what if I'm not their friend anymore!? What if it's one of those things where best friends slowly drift apart and they end up never talking to each other ever again!? I snapped my head to look at Lily.

"We're all still friends right?" Lily looked confused.

"What? Of course Oliver. Why wouldn't we be friends? Unless you don't think we're friends, in that case, what did I do wrong!? I'm sorry! So, so sorry! Whatever I did it was stupid and I wasn't thinking! I'm so sorry Oliver! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" She babbled on.

"No! We are. I just thought that Miley and you didn't think I was your friend or anything."

"Why wouldn't we be friends?" Lily asked.

"'Cause I feel like both of you are keeping something from me. Like I'm not being let in on some kind of secret you two have." I turned into the English class. Lily followed. She sat down in front of me.

"Oliver, we're not keeping anything from you. Really. We wouldn't keep anything from you." She answered. What about the time when you knew about Miley being Hannah, and I didn't?

"What about when Miley told you about Hannah, and I didn't find out 'till later." I pulled my English book from my backpack, and took out my pencil.

"That was only because she was afraid you though of her more than a friend. You know that. She just didn't feel the same way." Wait a second, she said didn't. Didn't is past tense. Past tense means that she didn't but what if she does now? What if she likes me the way I like her? But then again what if this is just one huge misunderstanding and I'm just going insane?No, bad Oliver. What are you thinking? Of course she doesn't like you that way. She just wants to be friends. Stop getting in over your head.

"Okay. Whatever you say Oh Wise Lily." Lily rolled her eyes and turned around to her desk. Mr. Buroughs the teacher walked around the classroom with his every dorky smile on.

"Hello class! How are you doing today!?" He said enthusiastically. Some people answered with groans and other people with moans. I chuckled. So what was going on with Miley? I don't want to ask her again, she's gona get annoyed at me. I let out a sigh. What to do, what to do? I can't keep on asking, Lily's gona get suspicious. I can't ignore it either; it's going to drive me crazy as if I'm not already crazy enough.


A/N: Okay, so that was chapter six! Please read and review because it would be oh-so-very nice if you did! I'm working very hard to get out Why did destiny choose this?, and it should be out sometime around the week or next week. Love you all!
