Things Have Changed
Chapter 16
More Amusement Park
A Minute or two had passed and Oliver's strong, secure arms were still around me. I still had my arms around him as well.
As my face was buried in his shoulder, I began to realize my tears were slowly drying up, but I didn't want Oliver to know that because I realized something. I realize that as Oliver is comforting me by stroking my back…and saying 'everything is going to be alright' I feel safe, like nothing could ever happen to me, and he was like me shield to all the evil in the world.
"Umm…Oliver?...Miley?" I heard someone say.
I lifted my head slightly from Oliver's shoulder and wiped away the visible tears still left. I looked over to the source of the voice to see a very confused and somewhat angry Kate with Lilly behind her.
"Hey guys…" Oliver greeted, his voice soft and arms still around me.
"Oliver! What do you think you're…" Kate started yelling about then faded, "Wait, why is Miley crying?" I guess she just noticed!
Lilly must have just noticed then too, because right after Kate pointed it out, Lilly sprang to my side. "Miley what's wrong?" Lilly asked.
I pried myself from Oliver's grasp and quickly stood up from the bench. "Nothing alright!" I snapped, "Let's just forget this and just go on some more rides." I said calming down.
I started walking away and when I didn't hear footsteps behind me I turned around. When I did, I saw all three of them standing there. I guess they were still confused about my behavior.
"You coming or not?" I asked and they slowly caught up to me.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Woah that ride was awesome!!" Kate exclaimed as the four of us got of a water ride.
"I know, we got drenched too!" Lilly exclaimed.
"I'm hungry…" Oliver stated, and I let out a small laugh.
"Typical, but yea I wouldn't mind eating. How bout you guys?" I asked. They nodded and we went up to stand they had around.
Oliver and I had got popcorn, while Lilly got a hotdog and Kate just bought a drink.
We were walking around eating when all of a sudden I feel something hit the top of my head. I looked around and saw a piece of popcorn on the concrete paths of the park. Now popcorn just doesn't fall from the sky and I wouldn't hit myself, so I looked over at Oliver who was diverting his eyes and smirking, making it obvious he had done it.
So I went into my bag which held the popcorn and grabbed a couple and chucked it at Oliver. I giggled.
"Wrong move Miles!" Oliver warned playfully.
"Ahh!" I screamed playfully as well and ran off, Oliver trailing behind.
He finally caught up to me and we started to have a popcorn fight.
When we finally ran out of popcorn, we both tried to get any popcorn that had landed in our hair out.
"That was an awesome popcorn fight!" Oliver exclaimed.
"Yea it was." I agreed.
"Oops, popcorn." He stated, and I didn't know what he meant until he reached in my hair to pick out a piece of the popcorn.
I smiled, "Thanks. Hey, where are Lilly and Kate go?"
"Probably in hiding, didn't want to get in the middle of the war! But let's look for them."
So we started walking, "Hey Oliver, Can you not tell Lilly AND Kate about earlier?"
"I won't, I promise." He said and smiled at me, "Hey look there they are!" Oliver proclaimed after spotting them in a gift shop.
"Hey guys, let's go on that roller coaster over there!" Kate suggested as she pointed her finger to the roller coaster that Oliver and I had rode on earlier.
"Oh wait, Miley you don't ride roller coasters…" Kate said as an after thought.
"I'll stay behind." Lilly offered.
"No, no I'll go on, I mean it's just a simple roller coaster." I said.
"You sure Miley…" Kate asked me.
"Yea, while you and Lilly were on that other one, Oliver took me on here to get over some of my fears, I'm good with this one."
"Okay."
And we all went into line.
When we got to the front, the man let us four in and I sat down and Kate sat down in front of me.
I looked up where Oliver was and it looked like he was trying to make a decision, and then I saw him come over to me and sat with me.
I was quite surprised and I think Kate was even more flabbergasted.
"Oliver!" She complained.
"Miley needs me more for this ride; she still isn't used to the whole roller coaster experience." Oliver replied.
"Fine." Kate said back defeated and Lilly sat down next to her.
Just like the time before I had my arms wrapped around Oliver's one arm, half because I was scared out of my brains but the other just to be near him.
Of course when the ride began to slow down, I pulled myself away fast so Kate wouldn't think I'm trying to steal her boyfriend.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Bye guys!" Kate shouted as jumped into her mother's car.
"Bye Lilly, Bye Miles!" Oliver said as he passed us, following suit to Kate who was his ride home.
"Bye!" Me and Lilly shouted.
We were in the parking lot waiting for my dad.
"Kate is like pissed at you and Oliver." Lilly stated.
"Why?" I asked dumbfounded.
Lilly gave me an are-you-serious look, "We came back from the roller coaster and you guys are all bundled up together, the popcorn fight, and he chose you over her when we went on the other roller coaster. Plus the whole time we were walking around you guys were flirting with each other."
"I so was not flirting with him, and we were only bundled up like that because he was comforting me, he started the popcorn fight, and the roller coaster thing was not my idea, so she shouldn't be mad at me!" I stated.
"Listen Miley, I know you like him, but he's Kate's boyfriend, just try to remember that." Lilly said.
"I know that, I don't know, Oliver is so confusing, but I'll try to stay a respected distance from Oliver for now on until things cool off. I don't want to ruin a friendship between me and Kate because of this…"
