Lily's POV:

I was just frozen there, staring at the boy who just walked in. Mia seemed to know what was going on, and her eyes grew big, looking back and forth between me and him.

"Oh hell no! Jacob, get his ass out of here!" She yelled, but instead, Jacob came over, whispered to her, and started to pull her away.

She kept shaking her head, and whispered something to the boy, and I'm pretty sure she tried to punch him, but Jake grabbed her hand before he could.

And I was still frozen.

Once Mia and Jacob were out of the room, the boy smiled and slowly walked over to me. He kept his eyes locked with mine the whole time he talked. "Hey, I'm Seth." Oh my God! His voice was the sexiest thing I've ever heard.

"H-hi…I'm L-Lily." I can't believe I just stuttered! But if you saw how hot he was, you'd understand. But wait…he wasn't as hot at Caden….right? Yeah, right…

"So, what are you doing here?" His smile staid on his face, and he brushed my hand with his.

"I had to tell Mia something…" I just looked down at his hand, wanting him to hold mine.

"Well I have to ask you something." I lifted my head and smiled brightly, nodding weakly. "I know this is sudden, but do you want to go on a date with me?"

My smile widened, and I nodded. "Yes." But then Caden drove his way into my mind. "No…"

Seth looked confused. "What?"

I suddenly threw my hand up and shouted out, "I'm getting married!" And then slapped my hand over my mouth, but kept my left hand in the air, showing him my ring.

Seth's eyes grew, and I swear I could hear his heart break. "Oh shit."

I put my hand down and looked at my feet. "I'm sorry…" What could I say.

"I-I have to go." And then he was gone.

I sunk down onto the couch and felt like crying. I loved Caden, but when I saw Seth….I don't know. Maybe twenty-one was too young to get married. Maybe I should see what the world has to offer. But it's too late for that now…I already said yes to Caden…

Mia came back in and looked furious still. "What did he say? What did you say?" She quickly sat down next to me and grabbed my hand.

"He asked me out…and I said yes." She gripped my hand tighter. "But then I said no. And told him I was getting married…"

"Then what happened?" She loosened her grip on my hand, as if she was getting happier over it.

"He said shit, I said sorry, and then he ran off." I buried my face in my hands. "And now all I want to do is cry."

"Oh Lily, I understand…"

"But I love Caden…why did this have to happen?" I looked at her closely. I needed an answer.

"Honey, I can't tell you, but…" She sighed and grabbed my hand tighter, as if this was getting her mad. "Just follow your heart. I promise you, you will end up happy." Why was she mad about saying that? And which boy was she referring too.

"Alright. Well, I should probably go home now. Just tell Seth…Never mind, it's probably better if you didn't tell him anything." I stood up and hugged her tightly. "Thanks Mia."

"Don't thank me yet." She muttered, but when I gave her a confused look she just shook her head. She knew something she wouldn't tell me, and I hated that.

As I drove home, all I could think about was Seth. I didn't know him well enough to like him this much. Maybe I only felt like I liked him because in my heart I knew I shouldn't be settling down with Caden.

My thoughts were interrupted when I saw an old rusty pick up truck in my driveway. Jacob's.

I jumped out of my car and ran to the front door. What would Jacob have told him? My heart raced. This can't be good.

As I opened the door, I saw Jacob by the door. He must have been trying to leave before I got home. "What are you doing here?"

"Just catching up with my friend Caden. But I should go." He forced his way around me and shut the door behind him.

Caden was sitting on the couch, glaring at the floor. "Caden sweetheart? Are you alright?" I sat next to him and tried to hold his hand, but pulled away from me.

"You're cheating on me?"

"What? No! I said hi to this guy today, but it's not like I was cheating on you!" I was shocked. How could he say that? What did Jacob tell him?

"Don't lie to me Lily! Jacob told me all about your date with Seth today! Apparently he walked in on you making out with the guy. Lily, I know all about him."

Jacob, how could he? He wants me to break up with him? Why? "Caden, you have to believe me! I love you, and I want to marry you." I felt the tears stinging my eyes now. "Please believe me."

"Lily, I can't. Jake was so sure, and he showed me a picture of you two together. I can't marry someone who cheated on me."

With that, I stood up, and started to yell. "You can't? What about when you cheated on me with Gloria? What about that? I stuck by you, even though I found her sleeping in our bed when I was at my mothers. You aren't even sure that I was cheating, and now you can't marry me? Well screw you!" I took off my engagement ring and threw it at his head.

"I'll be back for my stuff later." I walked threw the door, and slammed it shut. Not until I was safely in my car did I start to cry. Pulling out my cell phone, I quickly called Mia, the tears still falling.

"Hello?"

"Mia, can I stay at your house for a while? Me and Caden just broke up…"

"Oh my gosh! You didn't break up with him because of Seth, did you?"

I started to drive. "No, but he broke up with me because of him. Your stupid boyfriend came and told him that I was cheating on him with Seth!"

"Oh my god, I will kill him…yeah sweetheart, come over and stay as long as you want. And I'll deal with Jacob."

As I drove up to their houses, I saw that Jacob was sitting on the curb, head in hands. I glared at him, and kept going.

Running up to the door, I knocked twice before running into Mia's arms. I started to cry while she soothingly rubbed my back. "I know honey, I know. It's alright. You'll get through it."

I shook my head into her shoulder. "No, it's not. I just lost the love of my life. And because of your jackass of a boyfriend!"

She pulled me back and looked at me. "But now you can actually try things with Seth. Trust me, it all works out in the end. And I know he's a jackass, but he's my jackass." She looked behind me, out the window, and to the curb where Jacob sat.

Sighing, I sat down on the couch and wiped my eyes on my sleeve. "Mia, just because I'm pissed at him, doesn't mean that you have to. I know you love him. Just…I need to know why he did it." I put my head in my hands.

"I know honey, I know. But you won't understand right now. But you will when your older."

"Of course I will…" I shook my head and sighed. "Why is he out there anyway?"

"I told him to either get his ass out of here now, and stay out there, or I would kick his ass. Oh, and when he left, I stuck a shock collar on his belt, and he hasn't found it yet. So he got outside the fence, and then I turned it on. He is confused out of his mind."

Shaking my head I sighed. "Go kiss him and let him back in. I'm pissed that you wont tell me why he did that, and I'm even more pissed that he did it, but don't ruin your relationship over it. I'm going to go drive around for a little, I'll be back."

And then I walked out.
