Chapter 7
xx
Miley and Nick were walking around the mall. Neither of them knew what they were doing there, but it was better than sitting around the house. "Do you want to go?" Miley asked Nick.
"Well if you want to." Nick replied.
"Yeah." Miley nodded.
"Didn't you say you were going to hang out with Lilly today?" Nick asked.
"Oh yeah." Miley remembered. She had forgotten in all the excitement. "I'll text her and see if she still wants to hang out."
"Ok." Nick walked with Miley towards the car.
Miley took her phone out and wrote a message to Lilly.

Lilly woke up to her phone beeping. She almost thought she'd had a dream about Joe and then she saw him laying with her. She smiled. Then she looked at her phone. She had a text from Miley. Hey did you want to do something today? She checked the time and it was 3:30 in the afternoon.
Lilly wasn't sure if she wanted to, she kind of wanted to spend time with Joe. She replied anyway, because she hadn't been spending much time with Miley since she was back. Sure.
The phone beeped again when Miley sent her another message. Ok nick and I are coming soon.
Lilly sat up. She didn't want to leave bed, but she decided she should take a shower and change clothes before Miley and Nick arrived.
"Where are you going?" Joe asked, waking up slowly.
"Oh, Nick and Miley are coming here, I was just going to go change and stuff." Lilly told Joe.
"Do you want me to leave?" Joe offered.
"Of course not." Lilly told him. She grabbed some clean clothes. "I'll be back in ten minutes or so."
Joe nodded and sat up.

A few minutes later, Lilly came back in the room. She'd put on a pair of dark skinny jeans and a plain white tank top. "I guess my mom went into work til ten or so tonight. She's got some big thing going on there tomorrow..."
"Oh ok." Joe replied.
"Want to come eat?" Lilly offered.
Joe stood up off the bed. "Yeah, sure." He followed Lilly downstairs and at that same time, Miley and Nick walked in.
"Hey, Lilly!" Miley hugged her step-sister.
"Miley." Lilly laughed. "How's it going?"
"Good." Miley replied.
"Joe?" Nick asked as he noticed Joe behind Lilly.
"Hey." Joe said awkwardly to Nick and then to Miley.
"What are you doing here?" Nick questioned.
"Joe and I talked." Lilly told Nick.
"That's great." Miley smiled. "We aren't interrupting are we?" She gave Lilly a look.
"Uh no." Lilly replied quickly. "We were just going to eat something."
"I need to run home for something." Nick told Miley.
"Oh ok. Do you want me to come with?" Miley asked.
"No, it might take awhile. I have to stop at my mom's too." Nick explained.
"Ok, see you in a little bit." Miley replied. Then Nick left.
"Are you hungry?" Lilly asked Miley.
"A little." Miley answered. "Can we talk for a minute upstairs?"
"Sure." Lilly agreed. She went up to her room with Miley. "What's up?"
"I've been dying to tell you." Miley sighed.
"Tell me what?" Lilly asked.
"I'm pretty sure I'm pregnant." Miley told Lilly.
"Oh my god! That's huge and great!" Lilly said excited.
"I know." Miley smiled. "I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow. So what's going on with you and Joe?"
"I think we're together." Lilly told her.
"Aww." Miley was happy for Lilly. "You guys are so amazing together."
"We should get back down there." Lilly replied.
Miley nodded and went back downstairs with Lilly. The three of them sat down on the couch and watched tv for a little bit.

Nick came back and picked Miley up an hour and a half later. "I'll call you tomorrow afternoon." Miley told Lilly.
"Talk to you then." Lilly hugged Miley before she left.
Miley went out to the car with Nick. "So what did you have to do?" She asked.
"Nothing important." Nick replied, he started driving back to their place.
"Well I'm really happy for Joe and Lilly." Miley said.
"Me too." Nick agreed. "I think that it's a great thing as long as nothing happens."
Miley nodded. "Well do you think it's bad that they got together so quickly, though?"
"I don't think it would've made much of a difference." Nick pulled up to their house. He walked her to the door and inside.
"What's that smell?" Miley asked.
Nick smiled. "I made your favorite."
"Mmm lasagna." Miley went to the kitchen where Nick had set the table for the two of them. He had made a lasagna dinner and strawberry smoothies. "Even smoothies?" She giggled.
"Of course." Nick was glad she liked it. The two of them sat and ate their dinner. Their conversation was mostly about Joe and Lilly and a little bit about their excitement about the baby.
