Drama At The Prom
Kimi looked between the two and decided she didn't want to be part of it. She grabbed Phil's arm "I'm going to find Lil." after telling him she walked towards the exit where Lil had walked.
Phil contined glaring Tommy. He didn't know what happened, things were perfect before Lil walked away. Tommy was acting like Lil was the only girl in the room before he left. What could have happened in that short of time?
Tommy sighed and pushed Phil's hand off of him "She saw something that looked bad but it really wasn't."
"What was it?"
Tommy had seen Phil mad before, seeing as he plays football with him. But he's never seen him this mad. He guesses this is what happens with you break his sisters heart. "I came over here to get us drinks and my ex came over and started talking to me, next thing I knew she kissed me. I swear I didn't initiate it or anything, she did it. And that's all Lil saw."
Phil thought it over. He didn't believe what he said, only because he told Lil the same thing when she caught him with Courtney. That she was the one to make all the moves even though it was him. "That's bullshit." Phil said not taking his eyes off him "Kimi and I thought that you had changed, that you actually cared about her. She actually believed you cared. She didn't listen to all the rumors she heard about you, because she trusted you."
"You don't understand. I do care about Lil. I did things for her that I would never do for someone else. I love your sister, Phil."
Phil shook his head. He didn't know why, but hearing him say that made him madder than he was, he was pretty convinced it was nothing but a lie "You should have it because now, you're never going to be able to." Phil took a step closer to him "I'm not letting you near her again. I went against all my better judgement in letting her date you, I thought you'd actually be good to her. Now I have one last thing I need to do before I go and find her." Tommy didn't know what to say to Phil, or do. He was about to say something but Phil's first connected with his jaw "That's for breaking my sisters heart." He walked away and towards the exit where Lil and Kimi had went.

Lil was sitting on the curb when she ran out of the prom. It had started to rain and she didn't care anymore. She didn't even have the keys to Phil's car so she was stuck in the rain. She had ripped her dress by accident when she was walking and that's when she decided to sit down "Lil?"
Lil turned around to see Kimi walked towards her. Kimi left Phil and Tommy before she could find out what happened so her main priority right now was to make Lil feel better. Kimi sat next to Lil and put an arm around her shoulder "Do you want to talk about it?"
Lil put her head on Kimi's shoulder "Not really" she was glad it was raining. Kimi wouldn't be able to tell whether she was crying or not. And she was, hard. "I've never been cheated on before. Is it supposed to hurt this bad?"
Kimi started rubbing Lil's arm "It will hurt. Trust me, it will. If you're lucky, this will be the only time you'll get cheated on. He's stupid if he would cheat on you, Lil. You're nice, funny and absolutely beautiful. He was lucky to have someone like you, but this is Tommy Pickles we're talking about, he's ruined every relationship he's ever had. You last longer than most though and had everyone convinced that Tommy actually changed."
"I thought he had changed" Lil whispered.
She felt a jacket being put on her shoulder and she started thinking that it was Tommy until she looked at the person now sitting next to her, Phil. She moved away from Kimi and threw her arms around Phil's neck "You were right from the beginning, Phil. I'm sorry I didn't listen to you" she was now crying into his shoulder.
Phil hated seeing her upset, it broke his heart. She pulled away and Phil looked at her face, makeup stained. Kimi sighed and started wiping it off the makeup "Let's get you home."
Kimi sat in the backseat trying to make Lil feel better but nothing was working. Neither of them had ever seen Lil so upset before, Phil, who has been there through every breakup of hers, hasn't seen her like this. Kimi took her upstairs to her room and left so she could change and get comfortable.
She walked downstairs and into the kitchen where Phil was. He was leaning against the counter and turned to look at Kimi when she walked in. She sighed and walked to stand in front of him. Phil pulled her into a hug "I'm sorry, Kim."
Kimi pulled back and looked up at his face "Why?"
"For hurting you. Were you that upset when I wasn't around?"
Kimi nodded and looked at the time "You've already been forgive for that. But I have to get home, make sure she gets some sleep."
She went to walk away but Phil grabbed her arm "No, please don't go. She needs her best friend more than anything"
"Actually, she needs her brother."
Phil shook his head "I can't do it. If I have to see how heartbroken she is again I'm going to kill him."
Kimi put her hands on Phil's arms "We can't have you killing someone." she gave him a quick kiss "What did you say to him after I left?"
"I just told him that he's not allowed near Lil again and then I punched him." he shrugged like it wasn't a big deal and Kimi laughed.
"I'm going to go check on her."
She started walking towards the stairs, Phil right behind her. He walked into his room and Kimi walked into Lil's. She shut the door and looked over at Lil, who was now sitting in her windowsill staring at Tommy's house "You okay?"
Lil wiped away the new tears that had started to fall and shook her head. Kimi walked over and sat on the other side so she was facing Lil "It'll get easier." she reached over and took Lil's hand "Phil cheated on me, remember? We managed to get through it so maybe you two will."
"There's a difference, Kim. You and Phil are in love, we weren't."
Kimi sighed. Phil was right, having to see Lil's eyes broke her hear and she did want to kill Tommy. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a light turn on in the Tommy's house and she looked over just as a figured appeared in the window. Kimi glared at him and stood up, taking Lil's hand and pulling her up. "You need to get some sleep." Lil nodded and crawled into bed "I'll be right back, okay?"
Kimi walked out of the room and over to Phil's. He was sitting on the edge of his bed and looked over at Kimi as she walked in "Do you need clothes?"
"Please."
Phil stood up and got Kimi a pair of his sweatpants and a shirt before giving her a kiss "Did you get her to sleep?"
Kimi nodded as she slipped the sweatpants on under her dress and put the shirt on over it, unzipping it once the shirt was covering her. Phil watched and laughed "You look worn out, too."
She picked her dress up off the floor and nodded "I'm so worn out. I expected our senior prom to go so much better."
"Trust me, I did too." he gave her one last kiss before telling her goodnight and she made her way back over to Lil's room.
Lil was sitting in bed with her phone in her hand "Should I call him and let him explain?"
Kimi threw her dress in the floor and walked over to the bed, taking Lil's phone from her "Not now. Call him in the morning. You really need some sleep, Lil."
"Thank you, Kim, for being here. It means a lot."
Kimi smiled and shrugged "Phil said he'd rather me be here and not him, not that he doesn't want to, because he does. He just doesn't want to see the heartbreak anymore."
Lil sighed and laid down. Kimi was right, she needed to get some sleep, she didn't realize how tired she was until now.
