We sat there drinking coffee in silence. I hope I didn't freak her out, but she seemed oblivious to what just happened. I shouldn't have even tried to kiss her. I don't know what overcame me. Sure I thought about it, but never thought I'd actually get the chance. It's not like we could be together or anything.

"Lilly are you okay? You haven't talked in the last 10 minutes." Ms. Stewart asked looking concerned.

"Oh no I'm fine just tired." I lied finishing off the rest of my coffee.

"Oh well I'll take you home?" She asked standing up.

"Yeah alright." I said putting my coffee mug into the sink. She went into the other room to get her keys.

"Okay well where do you live?" She asked leading me outside. I gave her directions to my house. The ride was quiet, I felt awkward.

"I have a question." Ms. Stewart said breaking the silence.

"Shoot." I said still looking out the window.

"What Amber said yesterday, is that true?" She asked.

"I didn't hear what Amber said.' I lied.

"Oh…" She said quietly.

"Yeah it was drowned out bye all the laughing, I just was mad and ran away." I lied again.

"Aren't you two supposed to be best friends?" She asked sounding curious.

"Um well did you ever have a best friend who you didn't like at all?" I asked. Wow this question was stupid I thought.

"Well not a best friend, but a friend." She stated.

"Well yeah, I don't really like Amber." I said looking back towards the window. "I live right here."

"Okay." She answered pulling over. I noticed my dad's car was in the driveway.

"What the hell." I whispered.

"What?" Ms. Stewart asked looking outside.

"Nothing, just my dad is home." I said opening up the door.

"Oh well that's good then." She said smiling.

"I guess you could say that. Well thanks." I said smiling.

"Anytime, see you on Monday." She said.

I waited until Ms. Stewart drove away. I didn't feel like going inside just yet. I decided to call Jake and let him know I was okay.

"Jake, it's me Lilly." I said.

"Oh you're okay that's great. Ms. Stewart actually called me last night." Jake said.

"Oh good." I said.

"Hey why don't you come over, I have something to tell you." Jake asked sounding happy.

"Okay I'll be there in a few." I said hanging up.

I made my way to Jake's wondering what he had to tell me. I got to his house and saw Jackson and him outside. I grew even more curious at this.

"Hey guys." I said. I noticed they were standing a little too close to each other.

"Jackson and I have something to tell you." Jake said smiling.

"Wait let me guess, you two are together." I said rolling my eyes. "It's pretty obvious you know."

"Lilly! Way to kill the moment." Jake said.

"Sorry, but I'm happy for you two." I said smiling.

"Thanks." Both Jake and Jackson said.

"You better not hurt him." I said nodding in Jackson's direction.

"Never." Jackson answered smiling.

"Okay well you two have fun, I better head home." I said waving goodbye.

When I got home I noticed the house was more quiet than usual. Usually my parents were arguing by now. I went into the living room to see them sitting on the coach together. They look happy.

"Um what's going on?" I asked sounding shocked.

"I decided to enter rehab, that's where I have been." He said smiling.

"So no more alcohol? "I asked smiling.

"No more alcohol. I decided to get this family back together again. How it used to be." He said smiling.

"Great." I said feeling a lot better.

Sorry if this chapter wasn't too great, it was needed though. Also this is really slow paced, but it will pick up. And I promise the wait will be worth it. Thanks so much for all the reviews they mean a lot, so keep it up (:
