The long need talk between Miley and Lilly! I'm going to try and update weekly but no guarantees.

All The Way Up
Chapter One:

Lilly couldn't bare to stay on the stage, everyone was in a stunned silence and Miley was still looking directly at her. Her ex-best friend's green eyes seem to pierce right through her, making Lilly feel like she had done something wrong though she knew she hadn't. There was a look of pure desperation on Miley's face, telling Lilly what she knew as soon as she stopped singing: Miley finally understood. But she couldn't bare to stay stood there in front of the whole school and quickly left through the back of the stage; the same way she'd come in just a few minutes earlier.

Lilly entered the first classroom she got to and took a seat at on of the desks at the back. She hadn't thought this far ahead. She'd only thought up until getting on the stage and singing. She hadn't thought through what would happened afterwards and what she would do. She tried to get her mind clear but she knew there was nothing she could do until she went back out there and face the school. She could only hope that everyone didn't hate her because of this. She stood up, having been sat down for less than a minute and headed towards the door.

She was halfway between the back of the classroom and the classroom door when the door opened and she froze. Miley came in nervously and shut the door behind her. Lilly stayed exactly where she was, she didn't know what to do or say so she didn't say anything. Miley stopped a few desks in front of her, seeming to be just as nervous as Lilly was.

'Lilly' Miley said and Lilly realised it was the first thing Miley had said directly to her since their petty argument months ago. Miley looked around the classroom as if wondering what to say. After a moment or so of silence, Miley finally spoke again 'When did you learn to sing? You were amazing'

'Wow' Lilly said, sarcastically, 'Thanks Hannah. That's, like, such an amazing compliment coming from you. Wow!' As she spoke she placed her hands on her heart for dramatic effect. She regretting the sarcasm when she saw the hurt of Miley's face

'Do you really hate me?' Miley asked, quietly, dreading the answer.

'I don't hate you Miley' Lilly replied honestly.

'But?' Miley pressed.

'I hate Hannah Montana' Lilly said, voicing her true feelings for the first time. 'She destroyed our friendship'

'How…' Miley said, trying to get her head around what Lilly was saying. 'What d'you… How can you say you don't hate me but you hate Hannah. I am Hannah Montana'

'I KNOW THAT!' Lilly hadn't meant to shout, it just happened. 'God knows I know it. God knows, Miley, all of Malibu knows it and that's all anyone cares about. We have one stupid argument when your secret's out and you never talk to me again. Hannah Montana ruined everything that was great abut our friendship. Hannah Montana ruined everything that was good about school and the beach. I wish you had never become Hannah Montana'

'You wish I'd never had the best thing that ever happened to me? Do you have any idea how selfish that is?' Miley replied. 'Hannah has been great for me, because of Hannah I've been more successful than a lot of people get to be in their whole lives and I'm only 17. It's amazing for me and you wish that had never happened? Why? Just because you didn't like it when everyone knew?'

'You changed' Lilly insisted. 'When you're secret was out you changed to be accepted. You're a hypocrite. Everyone wanted to be friends with Hannah Montana not you, so you became an airhead and a diva. Hannah sung about how you should be yourself and be a good person and how to be a "true friends" your lyrics mean nothing. There nothing to you in real life.'

'Music is everything to me' Miley replied defiantly. 'Don't you dare pretend you understand what me and music is. You think you can have a few singing lessons, get an amazing voice and that suddenly you understand what it's like to live for music? You don't have a clue. Hannah Montana and Miley Stewart are the same person. I thought that that secret coming out would be the worst thing ever, but it turns out it's been great.'

'Great? What's been great about it? You've destroyed your friendships with me and Oliver, you're destroyed the relationship you had with your brother and your Dad. You and Robby Ray were like that' Lilly crossed her fingers 'I was jealous of the relationship you had, it was amazing, and you just threw it away. You didn't care about what you did to anyone. Everyone loves you and you revealed in that. Acting the part, acting like Amber and Ashley and… whatever that other girl was called… were the best friends you ever had. You know nothing about the meaning of friendship'

'As least Amber and Ashley didn't just ignore me all the time' Miley retorted. 'At least they acted like I existed'

'I couldn't get near you' Lilly said. 'and even if I had I wouldn't have been able to talk to you because you wouldn't have listened'

'How do you know that when you never bothered to try?'

'I had people who didn't even know me calling me a cow because they thought I just used you for the fame. They said that in front of you but you didn't say anything. You didn't deny it and by not deny it, it's all they needed for it to be confirmed' Lilly said 'You said about Jake not knowing how to be a normal boy but you've forgotten how to be a normal girl. A normal girl doesn't expect everyone to drop everything and put them first because they're Hannah Montana. You wanted the best of both world and yet you destroyed that'

'I didn't destroy anything. The girl who announced it to the beach "ruined" it' Miley said. 'Nothing would've changed if she hadn't said anything'

'You're so clueless. Yes that girl revealed your secret but you're the one who made the decision to change. You're the one who made the decision to ruin everything you had and become one of the preppy popular ones because that's what's "in".

'Hannah's music suggests that she's down to earth and understands what it's like to be a real person in the real world. I loved that about it before and after I found out you were Hannah. I'm sorry' Lilly blinked back the tears that were forming in her eyes 'I'm sorry that despite the fact that we've been best friends since we were 6 that I'm now not good enough for you. Remember this though: All I ever did was treat you like the normal girl you always said you wanted to be.

'If you can't see how Hannah Montana has come between us, then maybe our friendship was never all I thought it was to begin with. I won't bother you again' Lilly ran out, leaving Miley staring after her.
