Thanks to everyone who reviewed! :) Here's chapter 3!
Miley's POV
He walked up the steps and sat beside me on the bench.
"Hey." He said. I just looked the other way. "I know you're mad at me. I deserve that. I'm sorry I left you." He said. I continued to look the other way. "Please look at me. I'm sorry. I can't stand for you to be mad at me. I love you too much, Miley." He said.
I wished he meant that for real but he didn't. He loves me as a friend, and that's all.
"I promise I will never do that again. Please just talk to me." He begged as he grabbed my hand.
"I'm not anything important!" I screamed.
"Oh God, no. I didn't mean to say that. I don't know Miley it's just I love Mitchie. A lot." He said. I bit my lip to stop the tears that would surely come if he wasn't sitting right beside me.
"Okay, I get that. Don't tell me I'll always be number one and then just run away when ever Mitchie calls you. Just tell me that we're not little kids anymore, you've got a girlfriend, and you can't spend every day with me. I know that's what you're thinking." I said. He wrapped his arms around me tight.
"No, Mi I'm not thinking that. No matter how much I love someone, I'll always love you more. You're my best friend and no one and nothing can change that. Only you can change that. I'm begging you not to though." He said. I punched him in the arm.
"Why do you always do that?" I asked. He rubbed his arm and looked confused. "You always make me mad at you and then two minutes later you make me forget all about it. How do you do it? Do you have super powers I need to know about?" I asked. He laughed.
"I'm guessing you forgive me?" He said with a hopeful look on his face. I nodded my head and then hugged him.
"I knew I'd get my M-Cookie back." He said. M-Cookie was my childhood nickname. I used to eat cookies, like a lot, so Shane just started calling me that.
"Yeah, yeah." I said as I rolled my eyes.
"Listen, tomorrow we're going to spend the whole day together. Just us two. No Mitchie, Nate, Alex, or anybody." He said. I looked at him and crossed my arms on my chest.
"And what if I don't want to?" I said seriously. He looked hurt.
"Well then you don't have to...." He said. I slapped him on the arm playfully.
"I'm just kidding. That sounds like fun." I said. I love spending time with Shane and all but, it's really hard because I like him so much. Why can't he love me back? Everything would be so much easier. That just goes to show you life is never like it is in movies, or books, or fairy tales.
"I really am sorry." He said as he stared deeply into my eyes.
"I know. You're a guy and guys are stupid when it comes to girls." I said. He laughed. I sat there for a moment just admiring the moment, never wanting it to end.
There were absolutely no clouds in the sky and the stars were shining brighter than ever.
"You wanna go down to the beach?" Shane asked randomly.
"It's like ten o'clock Shane." I said. He looked at me and shrugged.
"So, not like we haven't done it before." He said. I rolled my eyes and stood up.
"Let's go." I said. He smiled a bright smile as he stood up. I pulled out my phone and texted Alex, telling her where I was going and if my dad came to somehow cover for me.
We walked down to the beach. Waves were crashing against the shore pretty roughly. We took off our shoes and started walking down the beach. It was really dark, and fairly creepy but I wasn't scared because I was with Shane.
"I'm sorry I made you cry." Shane apologized. I rolled my eyes and groaned.
"Stop apologizing. It's okay. I forgive you." I said. He looked down at his feet. Then he started laughing.
"Whats so funny?" I asked as I began to laugh too.
"Remember that time, I think you were in like first grade, and you came home crying because that guy made fun of you?" He asked. I thought for a moment and remembered it.
"Oh, yeah. Then you went and beat him up and you got grounded." I said as I laughed. He nodded.
"Oh, and remember when we all made a promise that we would never have any girlfriends or boyfriends, and that we would grow up and live together as best friends and never marry anyone." He said. I sighed and nodded.
"I guess I'm the only one who's kept the no boyfriend promise." I said. Shane wrapped his arm around me and pulled me close to him.
"That's only because no guy in the world is good enough for you." He said. Why couldn't he see that he was the guy that was good enough for me?

When I woke up the next morning I looked beside me and Alex was gone. I got up and walked downstairs. Shane was sitting on the couch watching TV. I guess he was serious about spending the whole day with me.
"Good Morning." He said. I went over and sat beside him.
"Um...good morning...where's Alex?" I asked.
"She and Nate went somewhere. She told me to tell you she sent you a text message." He said. Sure enough I pulled out my phone and I have one new message.
Have fun w/ Shane. I got my Gray, now fight for urs :) C ya l8tr :) - Alex
After I read it I started laughing. That's a fight I'm never gonna win.
"What are you laughin' at?" Shane asked.
"Just, um....Alex. She's funny?" I said. He looked at me weird for a second.
"Ok.....? So whataya wanna do today?" He asked. I shrugged my shoulders.
"Do we have to do something?" I asked. I really just wanted to stay at my house and just spend time together. Who knows when we would get to do it again.
"Nope. We can stay here all day long if you want." He said. I smiled and rested my head on his shoulder. The rest of the day we just talked about random stuff. It was almost the best day of my life. Mitchie called him what seemed like a hundred times but he didn't answer it once.
Alex and Nate came back around eight thirty. Mitchie called right after they came.
"Answer it. It's okay. You've been here all day like you promised. Go have fun now." I said. He smiled and hugged me.
"Thanks." He said. I nodded and he walked outside. Nate and Alex came and sat beside me.
"Did you have fun?" Alex asked. I nodded.
"What about you two?" I asked. They both smiled.
"Oooohhh, we had fun." They said. I laughed. They were such a cute couple. Somewhere in the back of my mind I always knew they would be together someday.
I slumped back against the couch and threw my head back, groaning as I put my hands over my face.
"It's killing me, last night he told me he loves her alot. I can't stand to see them together." I said. Alex hugged me.
"Then tell him. Tell him just what you told us. That's the only way Miley." Nate said. I groaned again.
"I can't do that. I know he doesn't feel the same way." I said. Nate shook his head.
"How do you know that? How do you know for sure?" Nate said, raising his voice from frustration. I didn't say anything to that. "I'm sorry. I just hate seeing you hurt like this." He said.
"Alright I'm sorry. I'm ruining everyone's time. I'm okay. Just forget about it." I said putting on a fake smile.
"No, Miley. You can't act like everything's okay when it's not." Alex said. I shook my head.
"I'm okay. Really." I said keeping the fake smile on my face. The truth is I'll never be okay.
So that was a weird chapter....nothing exciting really happened..... sorry about that :) The next chapter should be less boring (atleast I hope) Please review :)
