Chapter Three: The Date

Lil rolled her eyes at Tommy's question "We'll talk about that later" Kimi smiled up at Tommy and put her arm around his waist. "How about we go to the Java Lava and celebrate?" Phil asked. The three got into Tommy's car and went to the Java Lava "Hey Chuck!" they greeted as the walked in.

"Hey guys! The usual's?" they nodded and waited at the counter for their drinks and then made their way to a table. "Does this count?" Lil asked looked at Tommy who smirked "Nope."

"What was the bet?" Kimi asked and Tommy and Lil shook their heads "I asked him that earlier and he told me I'd see" Phil said with a laugh. Kimi put her head on Tommy's shoulder and he looked down at her with a smile.

Lil rolled her eyes and Phil noticed. "Lil, can I talk to you?" she stood up and made her way to the back. Phil followed her and the minute they walked back Phil was pointing at her "You like Tommy!"

"You're crazy, Phillip." she crossed her arms and looked at him "I saw you roll your eyes when Kimi put her head on his shoulder."

"Phillip, I do not like him" Lil walked out of the back with her arms still crossed. Phil walked out with and sat back down next to Lil. Tommy looked between the two "What was that about?"

"Nothing." they said in unison. The four of them finished their smoothies and got back in the car to take Kimi home. Tommy got out of the car to walk Kimi to her door and Phil turned to Lil

"Come on, Lillian. Admit it"

"I don't know what you're talking about, Phillip." Lil looked Phil in the eyes and then quickly turned away. He laughed knowing his sister better than anyone, he could tell that she had a thing for Tommy.


The next day Lil decided that she was going to talk to Tommy about their bet. She was walked over to Phil's room to let him know that she was leaving. She knocked but wasn't sure if he could hear over the music. She walked in and saw Phil in his bed with someone. "Phillip!" she screamed his name. She knew Phil was sexually active but she didn't think he was stupid enough to bring a girl over when everyone was home. Phil looked at Lil with wide eyes "Lillian! Ever hear of a thing called knocking?!" Lil covered her eyes when Phil got up, but she got a glance at the girl. "Phillip I need to talk to you. Now"

Lil was out of Phil's room in a flash. She waited by the door for Phil to come out and when he did she grabbed his arm pulling him to her room. "Are you crazy, Phillip?! You're sleeping with Kimi?! That's your best friends girlfriend! Are you asking for a death wish?!" Lil was furious at her brother and best friend. She didn't think they liked each other. She was convinced that Phil was still caught up on Wally. "Calm down and stop yelling, Lillian." Phil said putting his shirt back on and sitting on her bed "I'm not asking for a death wish. Kimi found out that he was going on a date soon with some whore" Phil swear's he could see a flash of pain in Lil's eyes but it was gone as quickly as it came.

"So? That doesn't give you the right to sleep with her! She's dating someone, Phillip!" Phil stood up and walked towards Lil "That seemed to be the last thing on his mind when he was sleeping with Savannah"

"You better stop now, Phillip. And when he does, he's not going to be happy and you're going to get hurt" Phil shook his head walking towards her door "He's not going to find out, Lillian."

Lil walked out of her room and down the stairs. She walked out of the house and over to Tommy's. She walked in and gave Stu and Didi a smile "Hey Mr. and Mrs. Pickles, is Tommy home?" Didi smiled at Lil. Tommy's parents didn't care that they just walked in their house since they had known each other since they were babies "He's up in his room."

"Thanks!" Lil went upstairs and stopped in front of Tommy's door and knocked. She waited but when he didn't open it she decided to just go in. "Tommy I-" she stopped talking when she saw him asleep at his computer. He had been editing one of his movies. Lil smiled to herself and walked over to him giving his shoulder a shake. He lifted his head up and looked at her "What are you doing here?"

Lil rolled her eyes and sat on his bed "I came to talk to you about the date but you were asleep." Tommy stretched and got up sitting next to her "What about it?"

"I want to do it tonight." Tommy gave her a half smile "Why so soon?" she shrugged thinking back to walking in on Phil and Kimi. "I just want to get it over with" Tommy chuckled and stood up "I'll see you later tonight then" he walked out of his room Lil right behind him. He walked into the kitchen giving Lil one last smile before she walked out of the house.

She was walking back into her house when Kimi was walking down the stairs with Phil. Lil looked at them and shuddered at the thought of them having sex. "Lil, I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have done that to Tommy or Phil but-" Lil cut her off "I don't care that you cheated on Tommy. I told him I wouldn't care if you ever did. But if you hurt my brother, I'll hurt you." Phil laughed and put his arm around Lil "Isn't she sweet?"

"The sweetest" Kimi said rolling her eyes and laughing "I'm going to talk to Tommy and see if I can find out who the whore is this time." Kimi said with a hint of worry in her voice. Lil pushed Phil's arm off of her after Kimi walked out.

"I have something to do tonight, I'm going to shower." Phil nodded and jumped onto the couch.

Kimi walked up to Tommy's house and rang the doorbell, waiting. A few seconds later Tommy opened the door anad smiled. He stepped outside shutting the door behind him.

"Who is the girl you're taking out?" Tommy looked Kimi in the eyes and then sat down on the porch swing. "I'm not."

"Then why did you say you were?" Kimi crossed her arms and looked at Tommy. "I was mad. I wasn't thinking. You can't believe everything I say." he stood up pulling her into a hug "I'm not feeling good tonight, but I'll take you out tomorrow to make it up to you, alright?" Kimi hugged Tommy back tighter. She was feeling guilty about about having sex with Phil now. She nodded to what he said and gave him a kiss. Tommy couldn't help but notice that she smelled like guys cologne. He didn't think he should be worried about it, so he figured it was Chuckie's.


Lil was sitting at her mirror finishing her makeup when she heard something hit her window. She walked over to see Tommy waiting for her. She walked out of her room and ran into Phil "You look nice. Where are you going?"

"Out." Phil laughed and blocked her way "With who?" Lil said the first name that came to mind "Sean. I didn't want to tell you" Lil watched as Phil's jaw tightened and his fist clenched. "You better be careful" Lil nodded and walked past Phil down the stairs and over to Tommy's.

"You look... Amazing" he said opening the car door for her. She was wearing a floral dress with a white cardigan. She smiled at Tommy as he shut her door and made his way around to the drivers side. He got in and gave Lil a smile before driving off. They pulled up to a restaurant that Lil had never been to. She got out and waited for Tommy. The two walked in and Lil was amazed at how fancy the place was. "Do you take all your dates here?" she asked looking up at him. He smiled at her "Only the ones I want a chance with" she rolled her eyes and sat down.

The two made small conversations before Tommy realized that something was wrong with Lil. He set his fork down and looked at her "What's wrong, Lil? Is this really that bad of a date?" Lil did a little laugh and shook her head "No. It's actually better than I thought it was going to be..."

"Is that what's wrong? You're actually enjoying yourself?" Lil thought about it. She was starting to feel bad about knowing that Kimi cheated on him and wasn't telling him. "Can we go to a movie?"

"Sure, anything for you." he paid the check and they made their way to the movie. They bought two tickets to see The Purge and made their way into the theater.

Lil sighed and turned to look at him. She knew he had to tell him "Tommy, I need to tell you something." throughout the whole night Tommy hadn't made one move on her like she thought he would. She realized just how much of a gentleman he really is "What is it?" Lil bit her lip and put a hand on his arm "I kind of caught Kimi... Cheating on you"
