Hanging by a Moment, chapter 6
Lilly put her bag down and rested her back against her locker, waiting for Miley to be done with her stuff. She crossed her arms and stared at the students in the corridor.
''I want Lola to come with me tonight, after school...''Miley said, putting her history book in her locker. Lilly looked at Miley. ''Do you think she can do that?'' Miley asked.
''I think she's available tonight... she will have to make a call to her secreterary, that is to say, her mom, to make sure it's okay, though.'' Lilly grinned.
''Great.'' Miley beamed. She quickly kissed her on the lips.
Oliver appeared at his locker next to them, soon joined by Becca. She kissed on the lips. Miley and Lilly exchanged a look. Oliver and Becca? Since when? Oliver looked at them a little embarrassed, but he didn't say anything. He took Becca by the shoulders and they walked away.
''What was that all about?'' Lilly frowned.
''No idea...''
After their morning classes, Lilly and Miley sat at lunch. Lilly didn't touch her plate...at all, which was really weird.
''What's up with you?'' Miley asked.'
''Nothing...'' Lilly replied evasively. A few seconds later, she jumped on her seat and faced Miley. ''Well actually, there is something.''
''What?''
''It's about your dream...''
''Still thinking about it?'' Miley shrugged.
''And you're not?''
Miley looked down. ''I am...'' She confessed.
Lilly nodded. ''I... I have a question Miley. Is that what you think of me? I mean that I will cheat on you and make you stop being, you know...?''
Miley thought for a second and looked Lilly into the eyes. ''Sometimes, I think that maybe you will get tired of being with a celebrity because I won't be able to spend time with you. And I'm scared that you'll fall for someone else... I couldn't leave with that...''
''You know I would never do that, right?'' Lilly asked, worried, holding Miley's hands across the table. ''I love you too much to do something like that.'' She added.
''I know
Lilly. And I love you too. It was a stupid dream.''
Miley leaned
across the table and kissed Lilly. It wasn't a long kiss, but it was
deep.
''So everything's fine?'' Lilly asked when Miley sat back.
''Everything's fine.'' Miley nodded, smiling lovingly to Lilly.
''Ok. I'm hungry now!'' Lilly exclaimed, as she took a french frie and put it in her mouth. Miley felt so lucky to have someone like Lilly. She couldn't put words on what she was feeling. There would never be words strong enough to express it.
Hannah and Lola were in the limo, heading somewhere that Hannah wanted to hold secret.
''Come on, tell me where we're going!'' Lola begged.
''Just wait til we get there!'' Hannah said, smiling at Lilly's eagerness. Lola sighed of frustration.
''I'm sure you're gonna love it!'' Hannah added mysteriously.
The limo pulled out. ''Here we go!'' Hannah said, stepping out of the limo. Lola soon followed. They were standing in front of building. A board was reading: ''Sony Studio.'' Lola's eyes opened in disbelief. Hannah smiled and grabbed her hand, dragging her inside the building.
Hannah led Lola through the numerous and huge corridors. They took an elevator and stopped at the 4th Floor. Once again, they walked in a corridor, but stopped in front of a door. Hannah opened it without knocking.
''Hey dad!''
''Hey bud! Hey Lola!''
''Hi Mr S.'' Lola evasively said. She was too wondered by where she was. She was standing in a recording studio. They were on the technician side, with all the mixing tables and some chairs. This part was separated from the actual studio by a glass. Lola could see a micro and other instruments: piano, guitars, drum there. There was also a couch on one side.
''Wow...'' She let out.
Hannah came next to her ''So, what do you think?'' she asked.
''I... wow!'' Lola said again.
''I knew you'd love it!'' Hannah exclaimed happily.
It was the first time Lola/Lilly was assisting to a recording session. Hannah was excited to see her here.
''Come on.'' Hannah said, grabbing Lola's hand. She opened a small door on the right side of the room. They walked through a small corridor and Hannah opened another door. Here they were, in the studio.
Hannah waved at her dad behind the glass. Lola turned around, amazed.
''I can't believe it.'' She whispered. ''this is so cool!''
Lola sat behind the drums. She wouldn't dare to play it though... or maybe she would. She looked hungrily to the drumsticks, desperatly wanted to hold them and have a little fun.
''Go ahead,'' Hannah sighed.
Lola didn't make it say twice. She grabbed the sticks and started playing. She wasn't bad at all. She had played before with his cousin. Hannah was surprised. She would have never expected Lola to be good at drums.
Lola started to play a solo. An ACDC kind of solo. She completely lost contact with reality and went on and on and on on the drums.
''Lola!'' Hannah called, to maker her stop. But Lola was still at it. ''Lola!'' she said, raising her voice. Lola had her eyes closed, completely lost in her music.
''Loooolaaaa!!!!'' Hannah screamed.
Lola finally stopped, the sticks up in the air like frozen. She was panting, and had an interrogative look on her face.
''I'm gonna need to work now...'' Hannah explained.
''Oh yeah, sorry.'' Lola put back the sticks, guilty.
''Go get a seat on the couch if you want.''
Lola did so.
''Okay dad, I'm ready!'' Hannah said to him, through the glass. She puts the headphone on.
Mr S. put his thumb up, and the music soon started. The chords of a new song started.
Looks
like we're found ourselves up against a wall
In need of a little
help but no one wants to call
After all we've been through to
relish (?) our friendship
And you need me and I need you
No we
will not break, never break, but even if we will
Yeah it's you and
me, together (together
together together together)
Yeah
I'm always on your side
No one, no one, no one can ever change it,
Come on let 'em try (let
'em try)
Coz
it's you and me together now
Hannah was thinking about Lola when she was singing it. Lola and she together. Miley and Lilly together. She first thought about that song a few days ago, when she remembered what they had been through when the Highschool discovered about their relationship (A/N: see ''Sweet girlfriend of Mine'' and 'Sweet Dad of mine''.) They had a hard time dealing with it, especially Miley, they were facing this giant wall which seemed impossible to overcome. But they went through it together, with some help.
Now, when Hannah/Miley was looking at Lola/Lilly on a side of the studio, dancing and responding to the words of the song, it made her feel like she had it whole. Like she had her future all planned. She will have Lilly forever, no matter what.
Lola came next to her while she was singing the last words of the song. The music ended.
''So? Do you like it?'' Hannah asked putting the headphone down on the music stand in front of her.
Lola ut her hands on Hannah's hips and kissed her, not minding Mr Stewart on the other side of the room. She loved the girl, he was totally okay with it. Hannah kissed her back, wrapping her arms around Lola's neck.
They ended in a tender hug. ''I guess that's a 'yes'.'' Hannah said in Lola's ear. Lola bursted a laugh, and gave her a small kiss.
''Erm Girls,'' Mr Stewart said in the micro in the other room. His voice echoed in the studio. Teh girls looked at him, still in each other's arms. ''I don't really want to pay for another hour in the studio to see you two kissing!''
They sighed and headed back to Mr Stewart. The three of them left.
The limo pulled out at the Stewart's house. Hannah, her dad, and Lolas soon got off and headed towards the entrance. This was when they saw him, sitting on the porch: Oliver.
Oliver stood up. ''Well I still had doubt... till now.'' He said.
Hannah's face fell down. Lola gasped and looked at Miley, panicked.
''Sweet Nibblets'' Mr Stewart blurted out.
