Here we go, with another update.
Thanks again for the reviews, everyone! I'd reply to them individually, but I don't have the time (or the attention span) So..I'll just thank everyone in each chapter. Thank you everyone!
Secrets Are Supposed To Stay Secret
Chapter 5: Like I Wasn't Supposed To Kiss Him
Hannah felt his cool mint breath blowing slightly upon her face. Her fingers were spread evenly on his back. His hands were resting on her waist. Their faces were inches apart. The camera rolling, all of the workers watching very closely. Hannah felt their lips brushing. She leaned in, but suddenly...
"I can't work like this!" Hannah cried. She pushed Drew away, leaving him look stupid with his arms still open as if he was holding something, and sat down on a nearby couch. Her head in her hands, she felt her face getting very hot. Something felt so wrong about kissing him.
The director sighed and called to the crew, "CUT! Take a break!" Hannah lifted her face and watched Drew walk to his dressing room. She sighed to herself. She promised to try to like Drew, but kissing him felt so wrong. There was something about him that made her not want to kiss him. Hannah leaned back into the couch and sighed. It was going to be a long day.

"You didn't kiss him?" Lilly asked her friend. Lilly and Miley were hanging out in the Hannah closet. Miley told Lilly about what had happened on the set.
"I couldn't," Miley said. "It felt so wrong. Like, I wasn't supposed to kiss him, or something." Miley got up and turned the Clothing Carousel on. She looked at it as if she were in a trance. Lilly snapped her fingers at Miley and said, "Earth to Miley!"
Miley snapped back, "Oh, sorry."
Lilly continued talking, "What do you mean, 'Like I wasn't supposed to kiss him'?"
Miley shrugged and turned her attention back to the carousel, "I don't know. It's like...so hard to explain."
"And what happened to, 'He's going to wish he never knew Hannah Montana'?"
"I don't know!" Miley cried. "It's like, I can't do that to him. As if he's a friend or something. I don't play scary pranks on friends. But he's not my friend! He's a big jerk!" Miley kicked the bottom of the carousel and groaned. Why couldn't she do this?
Miley turned off the Clothing Carousel and headed out of the Hannah closet, Lilly following close behind. They walked into the kitchen, finding it totally empty. Miley sat on the couch and flipped the TV on. An interview of Drew Evans with Taylor Kingsford, was on. She didn't turn it off this time. She paid close attention to the screen. Lilly looked at Miley as if she were an alien. Lilly shrugged and looked for something to eat in the kitchen. Miley continued watching the screen.
"So, Drew," Taylor said. "You're going to star in 'Prince Ryan' with Hannah Montana. What do you think about her?"
Drew smiled a pretty boy smile and said, "I think Hannah Montana is a brilliant singer. And I think it's going to be terrific to act alongside a girl like her."
"But she hates you. You know that, right?" Taylor questioned.
Drew nodded, "Yeah, I know. But, maybe this movie will settle our differences, and she'll stop. Who knows?" Drew shrugged and smiled again.
Taylor went on about a question about his new album. Miley didn't pay attention. Drew Evans was actually expecting Hannah Montana to change her opinion on him. She felt like walking over to him and slapping him again. But, she couldn't. Something about slapping him felt so wrong. I can't kiss him, and I can't slap him. What's wrong with me?!
Lilly bounced onto the couch next to Miley with a half-eaten bologna sandwich in her hand, "Ugh, this show's boring. Come on, let's watch cartoons!" Lilly took the remote and flipped the channel to Lilo and Stitch. Miley sighed. She got up and started to get a drink from the fridge, but the doorbell rang. She opened it, and once again, Oliver came strutting in like he owned the place.
"Wassappenin, ladies." Oliver said. He took a seat on the couch next to Lilly and stole her half eaten sandwich.
"Oliver!" Lilly said.
"Oh," Oliver said, realizing his mistake. "Sorry. Let's try this again." He cleared his throat, "Thanks for the sandwich." He took a monster bite and put his eyes on the screen.
Lilly rolled her eyes, "Whatever." She turned and looked at Miley who was sitting on the kitchen bar. "Miley, come on. So you can't kiss Drew Evans. It's not the end of the world."
Oliver listened to their conversation, but kept his eyes on the screen.
Miley sighed, "Kissing him is not the only problem. I can't think about doing that stupid plan I had. It's like he's..." Miley paused and looked around the room. Her eyes landed on Oliver. "It's like he's Oliver. I can't kiss my best friend, and I can't think about killing him."
Oliver burst out laughing and nearly choked on the remains of Lilly's sandwich. The two girls looked at him as if he were going nuts. He coughed and said, "TV, funny...yeah."
Miley rolled her eyes, "Whatever. What's wrong with me?"
Lilly got up and took a seat next to Miley, "It's okay, Miley. Just, act like he's...Orlando Bloom. You want to kiss Orlando Bloom, right?"
Miley smiled, "Yeah, okay. Thanks Lilly."
Lilly smiled and said, "Yup, that's Lilly for ya. Always gives the best advice." She smiled to herself and sat down next to Oliver. Oliver gave her a secret look. She smiled at him.
I don't own Lilo and Stitch. I love that show though. It's awesome. I don't own Orlando Bloom either. If I did, I'd probably be killed by the million fangirls that love that guy.
Using my Traveler persuasion powers (Pendragon reference. Don't get it? Read the books. They're awesome) I will make you press the purple button and you will write things like, "Update soon!" or "Great story!" or other phrases that are used in reviews.
