Thank you everyone for the reviews! I decided that I'm going to reply to the reviews that say more than "Awesome, update soon" My reply to those reviews are the next chapter. And since I don't have the attention span to reply in a PM or email, I'll just do it at the bottom of the chapter, K?
Secrets Are Supposed To Stay Secret
Chapter 6: Tasting That Kiss
Hannah sunk into the couch and took a breath. Filming hadn't started yet, but she was already beat and tired. The crew was waiting for Drew to show up so they could start filming. She picked at her ragged dress that she was expected to wear for the role of the peasant Julie. The things I do for fans, Hannah mumbled to herself. She got up and walked around the set, looking for something to do. She looked down at her feet as they continued to step forward. She didn't see where she was going, and bumped into someone.
"Hey, watch it!" Hannah yelled. She looked up and saw Drew. "Oh, it's you." She turned around and headed back toward the couch she was sitting on.
Drew followed her, "Hey, come on. Are you going to try to like me or not?"
Hannah smiled innocently, "Of course. Starting...later." She slumped onto the couch. "They need you in wardrobe."
Drew sighed and left Hannah to get his costume. She sat back and waited. The director approached her and said, "Okay, Ms. Montana..."
"Just call me Hannah," Hannah said, annoyed.
"Okay, Hannah. We're going to try the kiss scene again. Okay?"
Hannah groaned, "Fine. But that boy better have brushed his teeth this morning." Hannah got up and got ready for the scene. A few minutes later, Drew appeared in his prince costume. Hannah looked him over and thought, Not bad for a jerk.
The director took his seat behind the camera, "And...ACTION!"
Hannah looked into Drew's hazel eyes and put her hands around his neck. Drew put his hands on Hannah's waist. They leaned in. Hannah suddenly felt a million things going through her mind.
Get it over with!
Oh my gosh, is that mint?
He's a jerk!
Look at his eyes..they're so...
Snap out of it!
Just kiss him already!
They leaned in, and their lips met. Suddenly, Miley didn't care about the rest of the world. How stupid her brother Jackson was, how she just HAD to buy that adorable handbag at the mall, the way she thought that Drew Evans was a complete jerk. Nothing mattered except being in his arms, and tasting that kiss. They pulled apart after a minute. Hannah looked into his eyes and whispered, "Wow."
The director shouted, "And CUT! Perfect! Great job, guys. Take a 3 minute break."
Hannah leaned into the couch, eyes still wide open, a smile still on her face. She was floating. On a cloud. No one could take her down. Here she was, floating, and it would only last 3 minutes.
"BACK ON SET!" The director called. Hannah got up and followed Drew, still floating in dreamland.
And nothing would pull her down.

"Miley." Lilly said. She snapped her fingers in front of her friend's face. Miley still had a dreamy look in her face. Lilly shrugged and went into the kitchen to raid the fridge. If her friend was not on earth, might as well take advantage. Before she could open the fridge, the doorbell rang. Lilly sighed and opened it. Oliver walked in and smiled, "Hello ladies." He looked at Miley. She had a smiled on her face and her eyes were unfocused. "Is she okay?" Oliver asked.
Lilly shrugged, "I have no idea. What happened exactly happened today?"
Oliver sat at the kitchen bar as he watched Lilly raid the fridge, "Well...we did the kiss scene."
"Oh," Lilly said, putting some sandwich ingredients onto the table. "And, she slapped you?"
"No.." Oliver said. "She actually went through with it."
Lilly's jaw dropped, "You...kissed...her?!"
"Yes." Oliver said. "And..it wasn't bad. Okay! I admit! It wasn't bad!"
Lilly dropped the bottle of mustard. She got to the ground and picked it up, frowning to herself before getting up again. "Oh, that's great."
"Yeah. Hey, can you make me one? Extra mustard. Thanks, Lills."
Lilly smiled innocently, "Of course." She picked up the bottle of mustard and squirted the contents into Oliver's face.
"Lilly!" Oliver got up and wiped his face with his hands. "What was that for?!"
Lilly shrugged. She really had no idea why she did that, "Sorry, I just felt like...getting revenge. Remember the time you squirted that ketchup packet in my face?"
Oliver got a paper towel and wiped his face with it, "That was eight years ago. You held a grudge for that long?"
"Yeah." Lilly said. She sighed and continued making her sandwich.
Oliver smiled, "Well, it took eight years, but you finally pulled through." He punched her playfully on the arm.
Lilly laughed, "Yeah."
Oliver took a seat on the couch and turned on the TV. He took a peek at Miley who still had that dazed look on her face. He waved his hand in front of her face. "Yoohoo, Miley. Anyone in there?" She didn't respond. Then Oliver had an idea. He got a Drew CD from his pocket and put it into the DVD player and turned up the speakers. The sound of Drew's voice filled the air.
Miley bounced and screamed, "AHHHH!" She looked at Oliver and slapped him with a pillow. "Oliver!"
"That's my name, don't wear it out!" Oliver laughed. Miley smiled and slapped him with the pillow again.

fReaKy-FuNky-fUNnY-mE- I don't want the story to go by too fast. Which is one of the reasons why I'm dragging it a little. Thanks for reviwing!
xXRawkFistXx- Is it fair that my friend reviewed my story? You're right, it would make much more sense with Moliver. But I'm not going to say anything else. Thanks for reviewing!
If you would like me to reply to your review, say more than just "Great job, update soon!" Yes, it increases the review count, but it doesn't help much as a writer.
