Lily was running down the street, contently checking over her shoulder. Behind her were two people chasing her. One was wearing a hood; the other looked like a girl. She couldn't make out who they were. Lily continued running, her tears staining her cheeks. No one was on the streets. She was alone, no one could help her. She ran around the corner, finally there were two adults standing at the end of the street. She consciously ran down to them. She noticed who they were: her mother and father.

"Mom! Dad! Help me!" she cried.

But her mother and father just looked at her, like they had no idea who she was.

The two people were coming closer and closer.

The tears kept coming.

"Mom! Dad! Its Me, Lilly." she called again.

The parents just looked at each other.

"Do you know a Lilly? I don't." her mother said.

"Nope. No idea." her father said.

The two people were no in touch with her.

One grabbed her arms, the other taped her mouth. Lily continued screaming until she couldn't again.

"Buzz …Buzz …Buzz."

Lily awoke from her horrific dream, poring with sweat. She took many deep breaths, in and out.

"It was just a dream, Lily. Just a dream." she told herself. She cautiously got up from her bed and got ready for school.

"Ok, class. I graded your exams; I will give them out now." Mr. McCormick told the Lily's class.

He walked up the isles, passing out the exams. When he got to Lilly, he eyes her and gave it to her. Lily looked down to a big 40 in big red numbers. On the margins it said. "Lily, what happened?" She sighed and rubbed her head. Next to her, Oliver was pumping his arms in the air.

"I got an A!" he said. He looked over at Lily's test.

"40? What happened?" he asked.

"Nothing!" Lily snapped. And she covered her test score.

"Fine. I was just asking." Oliver said, rolling his eyes.

The bell rang and everyone rushed out of class.

Lily slowly got out and Oliver trudged behind her.

"Lil, are you ok?" he asked.

"Yeah sure." Lily said. She wasn't really paying attention.

"Ok, if you say so." He said.

The two walked into the cafeteria to meet Miley at there usual table.

"Hey!" Miley said.

"Hi." Lily replied.

Miley and Oliver began to eat. And Lily just sat there, staring into space.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Miley said.

"IM not hungry" Lily replied, resting her head on the table.

Miley and Oliver exchanged glances

"Well anyways, guess what?" Miley said happily.

"What?" Lily asked carelessly

"Jake asked me out!" she said.

"Great, Miley" Lily said.

Miley just looked down. She expected her best friend to be more happy for her. What was wrong with her?

"So, Miley, are we still having the movie night tonight?" Oliver asked.

"Yes, definitely, your coming right Lily?"

"Huh? Oh, yeah, sure."

The bell rang and without a goodbye, Lily got up and went to her next class.

"We should watch Flames." Oliver said.

"No. We should watch Pirates of the Caribbean. Johnny Depp is so hot." Miley said.

"No. Flames."

"No. Pirates of the Caribbean."

"Flames." Oliver said,

"Lilly, Flames, or Pirates of the Caribbean?"

Oliver, Miley and Lily were in Miley's living room deciding on a movie. Lily was on the couch, out of it, and Miley and Lily were looking through the movies.

"Um, yeah." Lily said.

"Yes! Pirates of Arabian it is!" Miley exclaimed.

"What? No. She didn't even say what movie."

"Who cares, we both know she meant it." Miley said.

"Ugh!" Oliver complained.

Miley put in the movie and sat down with Oliver and Lily.

Five minutes into the movie, the doorbell rang. Miley got up to answer and came back two minutes later with pizza they ordered.

"Pizza!" Oliver exclaimed and devoured a slice.

"Wow, Oliver, chill out." Miley said, grabbing some.

"Lily, you going to have some?" she asked.

"No, I had a big lunch." She said.

"Lily, you didn't have any lunch." Oliver said.

"Oh well I meant I had a big breakfast." Lily said.

Miley looked at Oliver. The both were thinking the same thing.

The continued watching the movie.

"Thanks Mr. Stewart!" Lily called, getting out of the car. She shut the door and ran to the front door of her house. After the Stewarts drove off, she opened the door, and walked into the livivng room.

She saw her mother on the couch, again, with bottles of vodka on the table.

She picked on up. "Since when did she drink this?" she asked herself.

She threw the bottles away. Then she looked at her mother, asleep, and shook her head.

She kissed her forehead and headed up the stairs.
