A/n: Sorry I haven't updated in a long time, I've been so busy lately. I promise to do better on updating, but it might be awhile until the next time I update. Please R&R!
Lilly POV
I entered the Malibu mall, in hiatus. I stole an outfit from my sister so no one would recognize me. It was a tank top, but it was a dress on me because she's 5' 7" and I'm only 5' 3". I stole a pair of her knee-length leggings to complete the outfit, but they came to my ankles because of our height difference. I also stole her oversized Chanel sunglasses, so it was harder to identify me. I guess I would do anything to win Oliver…
20 minutes later…
Ugh. I can't find anything I like. The only stores I've passed that I know are Limited Too, Hot Topic, and Abercrombie & Fitch, and I hate those stores. I might as well just give up. I started losing hope, but then I passed Pac Sun. That store is Cali-punk, which is my style. I walked in, and in 1 minute I had 3 tank tops, 2 shirts, 1 pair of jeans, 2 pairs of shorts, and…a miniskirt. I walked out feeling this was actually going to work.
An hour later…
God, these bags are so heavy. I had ended up buying 3 shirts, 4 tank tops, 4 pairs of shorts, 1 pair of jeans, 3 miniskirts, 5 headbands, and 3 pairs of shoes. But that's what happens when you enter Pac Sun, Delia's, American Eagle, Aeropostle, Wet Seal, and Hollister. Good thing I had the $500 my grandma gave me from previous birthdays and $100 worth of gift cards. I'm getting hungry. I went to the McDonalds at the food court, and I saw Oliver with his guy friends. Oh no.
Oliver POV
I was hanging with Zack and Troy, and I saw Lilly, but she looked different, but in a totally hot way. She looked…actually…girly. I didn't know this side of her, but I want to know, it's like she's some hot puzzle I had to solve. Should I ask her out? I broke up with Kailey a couple of days ago, so I could make a move on her.
"Dude, go for it! You've been crushing on Lilly for like ever, so do something already!" Troy yelled in my ear.
"How do you know I like Lilly?" I asked.
"It's so obvious," Zack said. "You acted totally normal around Miley, but when you're with Lilly you get all nervous."
"Really?" I questioned.
"Yeah! Go up to her!" Troy said.
"Okay." I mumbled. I went up to table Lilly was eating at, and I sat down. "Hey Lilly."
"Hey." She said back.
"Why are you here alone, and in a dress?"
"I didn't have anything clean, so um, my sister, Erica, said I could, um, borrow some of her clothes. And, um, her birthday is coming up, so um, I went to go buy her a present."
"Okay, cool." This was too hard. She was just so hot. I can't I just say "Do you want to go out with me?" It's so hard now. "I broke up with Kailey."
"Really! I mean I respect your decision." She said frantically.
"Yeah it just wasn't working out." Party like a rock, party like a rock star. My cell phone was ringing. "Hold on Lilly, I got to take this." I flipped opened my cell phone to see who it was. Kailey. "Hello?"
"Hey Ollikins." Kailey said flirtatiously.
"Stop that! I broke up with you for God's sake."
"I know, but, I miss you."
"I really don't give a crap, Kailey." Right as I said that Lilly looked at me with a raised eyebrow.
"Maybe I should live you two alone." Lilly said, and walked away, knowing my chance with Lilly went away.
Lilly POV
I wasn't prepared to run into Oliver, but when he said he broke up with Kailey, my small amount of hope boosted. I thought he was going to ask me out, but then he got into a huge fight with Kailey. God dang it! Kailey gets in the way of everything. I got on my skateboard and put on my iPod headphones, and I was on my way. I put it on shuffle mode, and before I knew it I was in my room putting my bags down. I still had my iPod headphones on and it started play "Life is What You Make It". Don't let no small frustration, ever bring you down, no no no no. Just take a situation and turn it all around. I was listening to it, until I finally realized the lyrics. Oh my god. I shouldn't have left Oliver at the mall! I need to go back. I started running to the mall, forgetting I even had a skateboard. I entered the food court but he wasn't there. Crap. I ran out and ran to the beach, but he wasn't there either. I sat down so I could catch my breath, and Jackson saw me.
"Hey Lilly! Why were you running?" He asked so sincerely.
"I'm trying to find Oliver. Can I trust you with something?" I asked.
"Sure. You know we're like brother and sister."
"Okay, well, you see, I have liked Oliver for the longest time, and I finally decided to do something about it, so I went to the mall so I could make him think I'm…well…hot. I saw him at the mall, and I thought he was going to ask me out, but he didn't because that stupid ass girl Kailey keeps getting in the way. Then a couple of minutes ago, I decided to just tell him, but I can't find him anywhere."
"He was just here. I think he said he had a headache and he wanted to take a nap."
"Oh, well, I'll just talk to him tomorrow. I'm just glad I can trust you with this. You are so helpful. Thank you!" I hugged him over the counted of Rico's, and then I left, knowing Oliver was going to be mine.
Jackson POV
Wait, didn't Oliver say he liked Lilly? Oh my god. I should at least tell her! I jumped over the counter, screaming.
"Lilly! Lilly!" I had shouted, but she had already left. Now they will just have to see if they were meant to be.
