Miley's POV
High school was so overrated. In middle school they tell you that when you get into high school there will be teachers that are so mean. And all they will do is yell and assign hours of homework all the time. But that's far from the truth, I've been a freshman for forty-six days counting and being a freshman rocks.
The first week I could be excused for being late to class because 'I was still getting lost'. That didn't last long though. But there were time where I would pretend that I couldn't get my locker opened. It works all the time. Dummies : )
Lunch was so good here I mean you could have your choice between three lines. Three! I love getting the subs, you can tell the women what you wants, like Subway! I love that we are able to just walk the hallways during lunch too! I men rarely do we have homework. And here I thought it was going to be hours and hours of homework. But really the reality is that it's not that bad.
The lockers are bigger. The classes are more of a variety. But there were two things I would change, Amber and Ashley. They were in all my classes, I mean Nick wasn't even in all my classes. And here they are, stalking me. I told myself though that I wasn't going to let it bother me. That I was going to go on with my life, and not let them ruin this for me. It's a new school, and a new me.
In fact everyone has that same attitude. Joe has changed the most, over the summer he had a whole new makeover. Me, Lilly and our new friend Taylor had all decided to give him a whole new wardrobe. To give a new hair cut too, along with giving him contacts so he wasn't wearing his glasses all the time. Even though his glasses were a popular feature of his, he deserved to have some contacts. Joe loved his new wardrobe, and that's what matter to all of us.
Taylor is a girl we had meet over the summer, we had all been instantly friends. A part of our group, she was so awesome. She was so hyper, and she had the curliest blonde hair I have ever seen. Well except for Nick but no wait Nick's hair is brown okay never mind maybe it's not the same thing. Oh well. But Taylor had the funniest personality but she was sort of a nerd like the rest of us. It's great!
Lilly, Oliver and Nick are joking around saying how Joe and Taylor should get together because they've got the best personalities in the world. And now I am starting to see it.
"How does this look?" Joe asked holding up a picture to show all of us
"Ugly" Taylor said rolling her eyes
"Ugly" Joe mocked rolling his eyes while slamming his picture onto the table
"Chill out Jo Jo" Taylor rolled her eyes "I like it, it's cool looking"
Lilly rolled her eyes and got up from the table to go get in line for lunch. I quickly got up with her practically running so that I could get in back of her. I really didn't want to be there when they got fighting
"Cats and dogs" Lilly said shaking her head getting in the back of the line
"They so like each other" The two of us laughed
It was so obvious.
I looked around trying to find Nick and Oliver, the two of them had run off somewhere. The two of them had been secretive and it was annoying because they would run off and when they'd come back they would act like they were in the same room. When we defiantly knew that weren't.
"There they are" Lilly said pointing out Oliver and Nick come into the cafeteria, looking around for us
"They think their smooth" I rolled my eyes, amateurs
I grabbed a chicken patty and watched them put some tater tots on my tray. Lilly and I paid for our food and headed back to our table, where thankfully everyone was sitting peacefully talking among themselves.
"Where were you guys at?" Lilly asked as she down at the table
I looked at the boys waiting for her to answer.
"Nowhere" Nick shrugged giving Oliver that look, that same look they've been giving each other for the past weeks.
What have they been doing?
Lilly and I just looked at each other, not saying anything. We just continued to each our lunch, not saying anything. They would tell us if anything was the matter.
"So I have this friend right" Oliver spoke out looking around the table.
"Yeah" Taylor said waiting for him to continue
"And he likes this girl" Oliver said after a few seconds, he had sort of an amused expression on his face "And I can't give any names because this friend would be super mad at me if I was to tell. So I was wondering if you could give me some advise to what this boy should do. I mean he's practically in love with this girl"
Aw…poor guy, sometimes girls are so oblivious.
"Are you sure you can't tell us who the guy is?" Lilly asked
"Yeah it would make the situation so much easier to figure out" Taylor added
"Nope can't do that, made a promise"
"Yeah" I heard Nick mumble, I looked over and saw him with him elbow on the table, holding his head up
"Well I think that the guy should have the guts to just come out and say it" Lilly said
"Yeah I mean obviously the girl doesn't know because she hasn't done anything to show weather or not she likes him. So I think the guy should do the first move" I said "It would help things move along, and help the girl realize that she likes the dude"
"Great advise" Oliver said sitting back into his seat "I will have to tell him"
I nodded and continued to eat the rest of my lunch.
Nick's POV
"I can't believe you" I said as Oliver and I walked out of the cafeteria a few minutes before the bell rang, we said that we had to go to the library. But the truth really was that we were just roaming the halls talking.
I didn't really have another guy to talk to during the summer because we were around mostly everyone and I have had this problem and I could never talk to anyone because the girls were always around. And now that school started, Oliver and I have been able to talk. And come to find out he had the same problem as me.
"She has no idea" Oliver said slapping on my back
"Yeah I hope not" I said, I mean I have been hiding this for months, and here Oliver is almost ruining my secret.
"It's all right dude chill" Oliver reassured me "Maybe it will be good that she knows you like her. Maybe things will happen between you too"
"Yeah well what about you?" I asked
"What about me?" Oliver asked
"Why don't you tell her you like her?" I asked smugly, knowing that he wouldn't tell her that he likes her
"Fine" Oliver said just as the lunch bell rang.
What! I said watching as Oliver practically ran to our lockers were and waited.
"Seriously?" Was all I could ask was he really going to do this?
"Yeah why not, I mean Miley said it herself why wait" Oliver crossed his arms
The lunch period was all heading this way, my heart was pounding. I was so scared for him, and for me. What he expected me ask…
No I couldn't even think about that.
"Hey guys" Oliver calmly said
"That was quick" Miley said opening her locker and grabbing her books
"Lilly can I talk to you" Oliver said quickly and looked over at me winking
Oh no…
I snapped my head towards my locker and started twirling in my combination. This was not happening to me today.
"Sure" Lilly sounded confused
I watched out of the corner of my eye as Oliver took Lilly a few feet where nobody was standing and saw them talking.
"What is this about?" Miley asked closing her locker and coming over to stand next to him
"You'll find out soon enough" I said slamming my locker shut and turning around to watch Oliver take Lilly's hand and watched him just talk. I wish I had enough of courage as him. That I was able to do what he could.
Stupid boy
I watched as Lilly turned around with a huge smile on her face, as she literally ran over to Miley throwing her hands around her neck, hugging her.
"He likes me" Lilly said jumping up and down, with Miley soon joining
"No way" Miley laughed so happy for her friend
"Yes he asked me out and I said yes" Lilly said letting go and laughing
"That's so great Lilly, see and you thought that he didn't even like you" Miley said jumping up and down again
Oliver came over and nudged me a little, but I just glared at him.
"Is that who you were talking about today at lunch?" Miley asked Oliver
"Nope" Oliver said looking at me
"Oh" Miley looked like she was taken back and than she just had to look at me
"Well we better go before the bell rings" I said picking my books out of my locker and started to walk towards my third period
But than I felt a tug on my shoulder bringing me back
"Do it soon dude, it's seriously not even that bad" And than he left
I walked to class slowly but when I got there the bell rang as soon as I got into my classroom. I sat in my seat, none of my friends were in this class which was a good thing because than I wouldn't have to hear anything about Lilly and Oliver getting together.
I really wanted to tell her that I liked her, but I mean if I told her than we could be like Lilly and Oliver, together. But why risk something so that I could be happy, but if nothing becomes what it's supposed to be than things will turn out worse. I am perfectly fine with just having a crush for now.
But I mean I could just say it, I mean come on Nick think. Not having her know, or going out with her. Which one Nick?
The bell rang signaling that third period was over, seriously where did the time go. I grabbed my books and went out the door. And there I saw her.
I had to do it, I couldn't hide anymore. I couldn't just sit around and think of all the would of could of. I took my ten brave steps to get to her. My hand reached out and I grabbed her wrists and pulled her back.
"Hey Nicky what's up" My nickname she used it.
"Hey um can I talk to you for a second?" I asked
"Sure" She said stepping aside from the classroom door so that she wasn't in the way.
This was it, she was waiting for me to speak. But nothing would come out. The sound of the kids in the hallways was slowly fading away, leaving only the sound of my heart pounding.
"What's going on?"
"I uh…" Come on Nick don't be a wimp
"Never mind" I said shaking my head
"You sure?" She asked
"I'm positive" I nodded "I forgot was I was going to say anyways"
Liar
"All right well I will see you later" She said giving me a side hug
I waved to her goodbye
"I like you Miley"
I slapped myself on the forehead, I am the biggest loser in the world
Here's another chapter. I am sorry that it's been so late. I have had some serious writers block I think that this is going to be the only chapter for ninth grade. I am going to have one chapter for tenth grade and than junior which is current will have a few chapters. I remember some of you saying that you didn't like Lilly and Joe together so I brought in Taylor and put Oliver and Lilly together. I hoped you liked this chapter.
It wasn't my best but it was something.
Thanks for reading and I would love for 15 reviews before my next chapter. Check out my trailer that I made for this story. The link to it is on my profile.
