CHAPTER 21
[P]
Phil knocked on Lil's door "Lillian open the door. Please" Lil had been locked in her rooms for
days. The loss of her unborn baby made her feel empty. She had barely eaten or talked to
anyone, not even Tommy. Kimi was finally back at home recovering, she had to be careful about
what she does for a bit. "Lillian please. You're starting to scare me" he decided it was just
to go in without her opening the door. He unlocked it and walked in. Lil was curled up in a ball
on her bed. She was wearing Tommy's sweatpants and a random t-shirt and her hair looked a
mess. Lil glanced over at Phil but then went back to staring at her dresser. "Lillian please come
eat something." Lil still didn't say anything. "It's been three days since you've been back, you
haven't moved, you haven't talked, and you haven't eaten." Lil gave Phil a look "Phillip please
just leave me alone." her voice sounded raspy, like her throat was dry and like she was on
the verge of tears again. "I'm going to get you some food. And you are going to eat it. Alright?
I can stand seeing you like this."
[T]
Tommy was on the couch, he didn't want to even try to get up the stairs. Dil was waiting on him
hand and foot, but all Tommy wanted to do was make sure Lil was okay. She hadn't come and
seen him, called him or texted him. "Dil?" he came into the room "Yeah? What is it T?" Tommy
was trying to sit up but was having issues so Dil ran over and helped "I'm going to Lil's." Dil
gave Tommy a look "I don't think that's a good idea, T" he said Tommy just rolled his eyes
grabbed his crutch and left. He finally made it to Phil and Lil's and just walked inside like
usual. "Tommy, what are you doing here?" Betty asked, he could tell that she was still a little
mad over the fact that he got her daughter pregnant. "I needed to see Lil. I need to know she's
okay." Phil came walking into the room "Hey man, why are you here?" Tommy started going
towards the stairs "I came to see Lil." Phil was holding food, but he walked over and helped
Tommy up the stairs. "Good luck, I don't think she wants to see anyone." Phil laughed "See if
you can get her to eat this, will you? I'm going to see how Kimi is doing." Phil set the plate down
on the table next to her door "Yeah, tell her I said hey." Tommy knocked on her door "Lil?" she
didn't say anything, Tommy found it useless to try again so he just walked in. Lil glanced
over realizing it was Tommy and not Phil. "Tommy? What are you doing here?" Tommy turned
and got her the food that Phil had made, "I came to see you, I needed to see you so I knew you
were okay." Lil made room for him on her bed "I'm not." Tommy set the plate down on her side
table "I see that, you look a mess." Lil frowned "But still beautiful as always." he said kissing
her. "Will you please eat?" Lil shook her head "I don't want to. I lost the baby, Tommy. I feel
miserable." Tommy pulled her close "I know. I know it's hard, but you can get through this.
You're Lillian DeVille, one of the strongest girls I know. And the girl I love." she hugged him and
started crying on his shoulder. Tommy just held her and let her cry it out, he felt it's just what
she needed. She stopped crying a bit and looked at him "Will you eat now please?" she
nodded, and he handed her the food. "I love you, Lillian."
[K]
Kimi felt like she was dying. It hurt her when she breathed and she could hardly move.
Chuckie felt terrible so he would do whatever she wanted "Chuckie you don't have to do this." she
said laying in her bed "Yes I do, Kimi. I was driving. You could have died!" Kimi could see tears
starting in his eyes "But I'm okay. You don't have to stay up all night I'll be fine on my own."
"Kimi! Phil is here!" Chaz called to her, she tried to get up but it hurt her too bad so she laid back
down "Hey" he said when he walked in her room "Hi" she said. Chuckie looked at the two of them
and then left. "How are you feeling?" he asked sitting next to her "I feel terrible. I hurt all over,
it hurts to breath, I just feel like I'm dying." Phil looked at her with worry all over his face "Don't
say that, you know it'll freak me out and I'll never want to leave your side." Kimi smiled, she
was lucky to have a boyfriend that cared like he does. "I'll be okay. But how's Lil?" Phil's look
of worry changed to concern and fear "She still hasn't talked to anyone. Or eaten. She's been in
sweatpants and a t-shirt for three days and her hair is a mess." Kimi looked shocked "Lil? Her
hair a mess?" Phil nodded "Unwashed" Kimi was planning on gasping but knew it would hurt so
instead she said "Gasp!" and threw her hand over her mouth. Phil nodded again "But Tommy
showed up when I was leaving so I helped him up the stairs and gave him the food, I can hope
for the best." Kimi rubbed his leg "She'll be fine. Trust me" she smiled "I will be fine, too!" Phil
laid down next to her "I'm so glad you're okay Kimi. I don't know what I would have done if
something would have happened to you." Kimi turned her head and looked into his eyes "I love
you, Phil. So much, I would never leave you." Phil leaned forward and kissed her "I love you too
Kimi. And I'm glad you wouldn't. I won't leave you ever again, I promise." Kimi smiled as he
kissed her again, his kisses always made her feel better.
[L]
"Thank you for coming over." she said leaning over and kissing Tommy. He smiled at her
"No problem baby! I'm glad I could help with making you feel better." he said, she got up and
turned to him "I decided that I'm gonna come to school with you guys." she said smiling, "Good!
It wasn't the same" Lil walked over to her mirror and looked at herself for the first time in
three days "Shit, why didn't you tell me I looked so bad?!" she said running to the bathroom,
Tommy laughed to himself and said "You still look beautiful, so I don't care, come back in here."
Lil had thrown her hair up to make her more decent looking and laid back down next to him. He
had his arm around her and she was lying on his chest with her hand running up and down
his side, like she knew he liked. Tommy closed his eyes and just relaxed to Lil touching him.
"I've missed you" she finally said, Tommy opened his eyes and looked at her "I missed you too."
Lil snuggled up closer to him and closed her eyes, for the first time in three days she was able to
sleep.
[C]
Chuckie needed to get out of the house, he couldn't stand seeing what he did to Kimi. He left his
house and told Angelica that he was coming over. "Hey Finster, what's going on? Why that
look?" Chuckie walked into her house "I'm freaking out Angelica, I almost killed Kimi, Tommy
is in a cast, Lil lost her baby" Angelica stopped him there "Lil was pregnant?!" Chuckie nodded
"Was, the wreck made her miscarry." Angelica looked a little upset "That's so sad! Poor Lil!"
Chuckie nodded again "Yeah. But I just couldn't be around Kimi anymore. She looked so
miserable and helpless I felt terrible." Angelica sat by him "It'll be okay, Finster. You didn't
cause the wreck. You just happened to be the one driving, there was nothing you could have done
to stop it." Chuckie looked up at her and kissed her "Thanks Angelica, I can always count on
you." Angelica smiled and leaned in and kissed him again
