Chapter 12: Home Sweet Home

Lily didn't know what to say. She's been searching for her parents for as long as she can remember, and now she finally gets to meet them.

She felt Nick leave her side. She saw everything happening around her. Nick introduced himself as her husband and that he could remember a little about them, then he sat down next to her. Miranda and Larry stood off to the side. Nina and Alex both sat down next to Lily on her left, they all watched Lizzie and Gordo. She came out of her trance like state, and said, "I have parents, and sisters."

"Do you know how long we've been searching for you?" asked Gordo.

"Nina and Alex told me, and I've seen the photo album, so yea I guess I could say I know."

"Stand up let me get a good look at you." said Lizzie.

Lily stood up and turned around once then sat back down.

"Miranda told us that you where raised by Sam since you where seven and half years old, and later on you found the Tudgemans."

Lily just nodded her head.

"My girls! Just look at them Gordo. There all beautiful."

At this the girls blushed at being called beautiful they all knew it, just didn't want to admit it.

"Mom!" said Nina and Alex.

Lizzie decided to cook and when it was done, everyone sat down and ate. Lizzie and Gordo got to know more about Lily, and Chris, since Nina was dating him.

"Nick and I we have to go, but it was nice meeting you, and getting to know all you of you."

Lily and Nick walked out the door and got in their car, driving to there house. Miranda and Larry followed them, and Chris decided to stay with Nina for tonight.

Once in their bedroom Lily let out a squeal of excitement. "Nick I can't believe I finally met my parents and I have sisters, it amazing and I'm not really mad at mom and dad for not telling me they had their own reasons. I'm just glad things worked out!"

Little did Lily know that Miranda and Larry where listening outside there door. When they heard Lily say that, she was not mad at them they both smiled, and then went back to their own room.

"Nick lets start a family!"

"We tried already it didn't work!"

"We can try anyways. I know you won't say, "No" to that."

"Come here you!"

Lily ran over to the bedroom door and shut it closed, then she turned around and Nick picked her up, spun her around, and then laid her on the bed.

The next morning everyone was in a good mood. Lily was brushing her teeth thinking, 'Even though I just am getting to know my parents. I have two homes to go too. I'm home already.'

"Lily what are you thinking about?"

"Just that I have two families and two homes to go too, now, but this is my real home. I guess you could say..."

"Home Sweet Home." finished Nick.

"Yea, Home Sweet Home!"

They started kissing. "You taste like mint."

"Nick, Lily not again company is here."

Lily broke away from Nick and ran downstairs. She saw Lizzie, Gordo, Nina, Alex and Chris there.

"I really am home."

Nick came downstairs and then everyone went into the kitchen and ate breakfast.

Author's note: I am not sure if I want an epilogue to this...thinking...I don't know. I decided to write it!

Epilogue

Lily got to know the Gordon's real well, as the years went by, but she still couldn't call them mom and dad because Miranda and Larry where more like her real parents, so Lizzie and Gordo settled on her just calling them by there first names.

Chris and Nina got married. They have been married for a year now. Alex still has not found anyone yet but she is still looking. Nick and Lily have finally moved out of the house.

Lizzie and Gordo are friends again with Miranda and Larry. Took them both a year to get over everything, well more like Lizzie and Miranda.

"Mom dad guess what!" Lizzie and Gordo turned around.

"Yes, Alex." Said Lizzie.

"I've found this great guy he's name is Jeremy, and we're getting married!"

Everyone was stunned, but they soon snapped out of it. "How long have you two been dating?" asked Gordo.

"I kind of lied, but we've been dating for a year, now!"

Everyone was invited to the wedding.

Lily saw who Alex was getting married too and she didn't like it.

"Alex wait you can't get married to Jeremy."

"Why not?"

"I know him, he'll act nice but he isn't."

"I'm sorry Lily for what Jeremy might have done to you in the past, but he's changed now, so please stop judging him." with this she left Lily and walked out to meet her father, so he could her down the isle.(SP?)

Alex and Jeremy where married and one year later everything was fine.

"I told you Jeremy had changed."

"You're right he has."

Alex was lying again and she knew it. Sitting there telling Lily that he changed while she had a bruise on the inside of her leg.

"I have to go, but I'll see you around. Love you Lily."

"Love you too Alex."

Lily could not believe her sister; her baby sister was in the hospital for Jeremy beating the crap out of her just because she divorced him. No one knew if she would live or not because she had not come out of her coma.

Everyone was waiting in the waiting room pacing around wanting to know if she was okay or not. Lily had taken off her job to be with her family. She knew Ella would not be happy because she had a column due in two days, but on the other hand she knew Ella would understand.

Nick was still at his job. Nick rushed out of the Hillridge high school building to get to the teacher parking lot.

He got in and drove to the hospital. He parked his car and went inside. "Lily, how is she doing?"

"We don't know if she's coming out of her coma or not."

Just then, Alex's doctor came to the waiting room. "How is my little girl, doc.?" asked Gordo.

"She's out of her coma and she wants to see Lily."

Everyone looked at her wanting her to be there already. She left to go to Alex's room.

She walked inside. "I should have listened to you Lily. I'm sorry."

"Don't talk. I forgive you. The important thing is that you are getting better. I'll send the rest of the family in."

Alex was released a week later. She lived with Lizzie and Gordo.
