Aw, only 3 reviews? sob. Well, daisy617 knows me so well. Ha ha. :) Anyways, I am not going to bore you with a long note, so...
I'll Always Be There
'Cause I've got you to make me feel stronger
When the days are rough and an hour seems much longer
Yeah when I got you
Oh to make me feel better
When the nights are long they'll be easier together- I've Got You, McFly
"Lilly!" Miley shouted, banging the door, but got absolutely no answer. "This is so stupid, I'm your best friend!"
Nothing. "Lilly, please tell me what's wrong." Silence. "Urgh, fine!"
Lilly heard Miley storm away and buried her face in the pillow. She just did not want any company right now; she just wanted to wallow in her own self-pity.
Why was she so upset? Her dad was completely gone now, out of her life. He was in an accident, and that was it. The end of her father's existence in her life entirely. First the divorce and now this.
She wasn't taking this so well as she did with the divorce, she had locked herself up in her room and refused any human contact. Though Lilly forgot one thing: her window. But in her defence, she never thought he'd actually try and climb up there.
"Lilly!" She looked up from her pillow and looked around for the source of the voice and saw nothing. "Out here!"
Running to her window, she saw Jackson Stewart hanging from her window still, the ladder that he climbed up on lying on the grass. She quickly opened her window and pulled him in, not wanting to be the cause of his pain if he fell.
"What are you doing?" She asked as she grabbed him arms and pulled him up.
"Miley told me to try and get into your room." He said and then sat up on the window still, but fell forwards and landed on top of Lilly. "Taa daa."
"So we all know how you can get in, let's see how you can get out." Lilly pushed Jackson off of her and marched towards the door, but he grabbed her to stop her.
"Miley's gone home, she didn't think I'd get in. She now owes me twenty bucks." Jackson seemed pleased with his accomplishment and Lilly just rolled her eyes.
"Ok, now out."
"I get an extra ten if you tell me what is bothering you."
Lilly's heart sank as she remembered that. "Oh, I'm uh, upset."
"I can see that." Jackson said as he wiped away a stray tear. Lilly looked up at his face and put her head to the side. Jackson frowned at her. "What?"
"I'm not as upset as I was a moment ago." Lilly stated.
"Yeah, it's hard to be upset in my presence." Jackson commented and then watched as Lilly sadly walked back to her bed and hugged her pillow. He moved to the end of her bed and sat down. "C'mon, you know you want to tell me what's bothering you."
"My dad's dead." Lilly mumbled, but Jackson heard her. She then quickly buried her face back into her pillow and started crying again. Jackson, however, came and sat behind her, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her to his chest. Lilly rested her head on his shoulder and let silent tears fall as the two sat in silence.
She then felt Jackson move and felt his cheek on hers. "It's going to get better." He said softly, his breath tickling her face.
"I know." Lilly sighed. "But it hurts."
His hold on her tightened. "I know, and I'll be here for you."
"Really?" She asked. She felt him nod then rest his chin on her shoulder. Lilly sighed again and felt dry now, no more tears were coming today. But tomorrow would be a whole different story.
She shifted in his hold and felt him lift his chin and loosen his grip on her. Lilly turned to face him then, her head still on his chest and looking up at his face.
"Why didn't you let Miley in?" He asked.
"She would've said I know what you're going through and blah, blah, blah… which is not what I need right now." Lilly said and then grinned. "I just need someone like you."
"Like me?"
"To just hold me, to make me feel like me and not relate to me."
"I could relate to you, Miley is my sister. We both lost a mother."
"Yeah, but you're different from Miley." Lilly then sat up so her face was now level with Jackson's and just inches apart.
"You do know Miley sent me."
"I know. Just, promise me one thing." Lilly said as she leaned in.
"Yeah?" Jackson asked.
"Promise me you'll always be there."
"I promise you I'll always be there for you." He said quietly and then softly kissed her. Lilly then forgot about all her worries and troubles and just thought about this kiss.
Jackson started to pull away, but Lilly quickly closed the gap again and Jackson couldn't help but smile. Lilly moved her hands up his chest and around his neck, but Jackson pulled them away and then broke the kiss.
"Don't move too fast." He said. Lilly blushed and then tried to slink away, but Jackson caught her and kissed her again, this time harder. Lilly kissed him back as he wrapped his arms around her waist.
The two then broke away, breathing heavily. Jackson had a huge smile on his face as Lilly rested her head back on his chest. He held her tighter and put his cheek on top of her head as he looked at her wall.
"Stay with me tonight." It wasn't a question and Jackson picked that up.
"Sure."
The two then fell asleep shortly, Jackson's arms still wrapped around Lilly, holding her close. Lilly was smiling in her sleep as she dreamed. Sure, tomorrow would be just as difficult, but she had Jackson there.
Still review please. If you don't know what to say, either talk about McFly or tell me if you've seen Wall.E! I saw it today, it was so cute! :)
