I'M BACK!
The date had been out of the ordinary.
Awesome? Yes
Weird? Yes
Magical? Yes, yes and yes!
Lilly couldn't quite explain it, it was just a feeling that made her feel so good but also very sick. She knew that if she got distracted she could let herself go but she was afraid she wouldn't know how to get herself back.
After the meeting her parents which had gone surprisingly good (he gave flowers to her mom and talked about recent events with her dad and brother) they had gone to the fancy and expensive restaurant otherwise known as "Le Cirque", she really didn't like it from the moment they got inand it probably showed because Justin immediately asked if she wanted to leave.She said yes after doubting it for fear it would be too rude, and they went back to the subway. Iknow...awkward. It just wasn't going as planned, not that she had any plans or expectations boutthis date... or at least she wouldn't admit it.
Where to go? They couldn't go skating, Lilly wasn't appropriately dressed for that and they didn't have their skateboards with them. And suddenly she knew what she wanted to do, but would he agree?
-"I know, I could... kind of...interview you for Lilly Tells it Like it is, I mean if you want to, cuz if you don't we could do something else, never mind let's think of something else."
but when he said that it sounded alright and that it could be fun, they got started.
Yep, an interview on a moving subway, she had her video cam with her so she just took it out.
It was her chance to know him, she was so much more her real self with a camera in her hands.
"Lilly Tells It Like It Is"
Episode #342
Segment 3
L: Hello my precious viewers, today I'm here in the subway with AEHS' very own heartthrob, Justin Baxendale.
J: Um... Heartthrob?
L: Say Hello.
J: Hello? Lilly don't we need like... scripts?
L: No, we improvise. It's better this way. Now, tell us, what are your dreams?
J: Are you sure this is the right way?
L: Sure I am, I mean if you're not comfortable we can stop, do you want to stop!
J: No... I dunno, should we?
L: I'll ask, you'll listen and answer honestly. Is that too hard?
J: No, I guess not.
L: Ok, let's begin then. Tell us about what you want for the future.
J: I guess I want a successful life... love, a high financial status, happiness.
L: How would you describe yourself?
J: I think I am more of a loner, I feel fine with the way I am, I'm genuine.
L: What can you tell us bout the life you have?
J: I like my life, I have everything I need.
L: This isn't working, let's talk about something else.
J: Like what?
L: Tell us something, anything. What is it that you really want, What do you dream at night? What is your biggest fear? Tell us something deep.
J: (spoken not sung) I can't eat, I can't sleep, I can't sleep, I can't dream, an aversion to light, got a fear of the ocean.
L: Weird...
J: I figured your precious viewers were getting bored.
L: I said it was weird, that doesn't mean fun.
J: Are you being mean to me Lilly Moscovitz?
L: I'm being honest.
J: Well then...
He took the camera away from her hands.
J: Be honest now, What do you want?
L: What do I want from what?
J: From life, love, yourself, me.
L: I want to be happy.
J: I could make you happy.
L: Hmm?
J: I want to make you happy, do you want me to make you happy? Do you want me?
L: I don't know what I want.
J: I think you do, you want happiness. I'm offering you happiness, why don't you take what you want?
L: I am afraid.
J: You shouldn't, or maybe you should, I'm afraid too but I have this feeling something good's coming and I won't let my fear get in the way. Will you let yours?
L: I don't know.
J: Take my hand...
They waited a few minutes and the subway finally got to a station. They didn't know where, they didn't care. They got out holding hands and started walking down the street. There was some weird music playing, there was a celebration of something. The music was very tropical, the air smelled different. They talked for a while and then Lilly feeling very unlike herself kissed him.
A strong kiss, a kiss that made her feel absorbed, it made her feel like she was underneath the ocean but like she was flying also. Later they danced and she grinned the whole time.
-"See I told you I would make you happy"
