Chapter Fourteen

I woke up in a strange place, it wasn't my room, I wonder why but I could remember my mind doesn't seem to want to work in the mornings, again my tiredness took over and I fell into my nightmares again.

Amber was sitting at the dinner table with 'Fabina' Patricia, Mick, and Mara. Trudy was in the kitchen and called out to Amber to go and get the sleepy heads. She left the table and walked to Jerome's and Alfie's Room and couldn't be bothered to knock but opened the door, she was surprised to find and see Lily on top of Jerome her head by Jerome's and his lips by her cheek. She looked around to see Alfie in his bed still sleeping in his curled up ball. She went over to him and pushed and poked him until he woke up,

"Urrrggg….." He managed to get out. She continued to poke. "Ok, I'm up, I'm up" he got up and looked at Amber and realised Breakfast and ran out the door before she even got a chance to tell and show him Lily and Jerome, she sighed and followed to where he went to.

She found him at his seat scoffing pancakes. She rolled her eyes and sat down next to Nina. Who asked "Where's Lil and Jerome?"

Amber didn't know what to say and if they believed her, after her last failed attempt to tell the others about them, "Ummm…" She stuttered. Nina glared at her confused.

Patricia spoke up "Where's them?"

"In Jerome's room, asleep." She answered

"What? together or alone?"

This caught Amber of surprised, she sighed and answered truthfully "Together"

Suddenly the table went silent.

"WOW! Wasn't expecting that for breakfast!" Alfie cried.

Jerome who was starting to wake up slowly, realised that there was something from blocking him from sitting up, he turned his head toward the wall and saw Lily he noticed that her hair was everywhere, and her head was by him but her body seem to be on him, her leg by his, suddenly she stirred and her eyes opened. It took her a few seconds to realise where she was and who she was with.

"Ahh!" she leaned back, her waist downwards was still on Jerome's body. "What? How? Huh?" she asked confused and frightened, wondering why she was there.

"Erm... I think we must have fallen asleep and you must of thought that you were in your room." He explained, hoping that he got it right.

"Might of done, sorry" She sighed and laid back down she didn't relies this until she felt Jerome's top undone, she shot up again. "Sorry again, I get up; just can I have a minute?" She asked,

"Sure" he replied and slid his hands around her body and pulled her close to him again. "But can I ask you something?"

"Sure, go ahead?"

"Lily, would you please forgive me for being an ungrateful friend who didn't realise that I had someone who would have been at my side if I never left her, for some silly crush that would never pick someone like me. That I should have stayed with you, instead of going off and then having that augment that night, I said things I never meant. I was mad, but still didn't give me the right to say what I said. I miss you Lily, I miss our chats, hugs, and DVD's night… the list goes on. I want my friendship back with my best friend again. Will you forgive me? I understand that it might take time, but I just want to talk with you and start again if we have to…"

Lily was smiling and brought her lips to his ear, "Of course, I can forgive you, yes it was hard but you needed to know and understand, and you have, I wanted to forgive you since that night but I felt like I couldn't but now it feels right."

"Thank you, thank you so much!" He cried and hugged her even more. Suddenly Lily pulled away, he looked at strangely. She knew because she said awardly

"Erm... Maybe I should leave and start getting ready for the day. I think." Her smile was an award one. Suddenly Jerome realised why,

"Lily, I'm so sorry. Urmm… oh my gosh. Wow" he shot up so he was sitting now but with the bed covers across him. He started to blush red; lily laughed and hugged him which made him go even redder.

"Oh sorry."

"It's alright, I guess I need new PJ bottoms, one that hide things." This made lily even laugh more then she got serious and looked away her memories in thought. "Lily? You alright?" she shook her thoughts out her head,

"Yeah, I'm good thanks. Better go to my room to change, see ya at breakfast" she smiled. He nodded and watched her leave his room, he sighed and waiting till he heard her door shut quietly before getting and changing into some clothes.

Lily had just changed into short demi shorts and creamy colour tank top, with some brown little boots. She looked cute, she checked herself over before heading to the door and leaving.

Jerome had walked into the living room when everyone started at him. He raised his eyebrow and sat down in his seat. When Lily came in, wearing her shorts and top. Jerome's mouth hung open. Lily did the same as Jerome, "Jerome, shut your mouth, your get flies." Suddenly he shut it and blushed. Everyone laughed. Lily walked over to Jerome. "It's really not your day, today is it?" he shook his head. Lily looked at her food, she sighed wondering how she was going to get out of this, as it was a Sunday. Jerome notice and asked her what was wrong. "Nothing." She lied. Five minutes had past. Lily had been messing up her plate, before getting up and putting her plate into the kitchen.

Alfie, who was starting to get concurred for her, got up and followed her into the kitchen. "What's wrong Lil?" he asked worriedly. She turned round not expecting Alfie to be so close behind her and tripped, she fell which pulled Alfie down with her. The other saw this and rushed out to the kitchen. Alfie was lying on top of Lily with their faces inches apart from each other. Alfie keep thinking back to last night and what would have happened if Jerome hadn't came in. Lily was red as a tomato from blushing. Alfie laughed. She liked the way he laughed and how he made her smile when things weren't going right. Alfie started to learn in, she closed the gap between them, they were nearing songging, Alfie upped his game, and he brushed her lips which she let passed suddenly before they knew they were full out making out.

Suddenly there was a boom "what is going on here? LILY!" She pushed Alfie off and stood up, embarrassed by what had just happened. She looked down suddenly fascinated with the floor. "Lily?" Victor boomed again, she looked up at him then back down to the floor. "My office now!"

"Yes, Victor." Her voice as quite as a mouse, she went through the doorway to the living room then ran to the stairs and to Victor's office. Victor looked at Alfie and sighed and left.
