CH10

The sun was shinning through my window. I pealed my eyes open with a groan. Flopping on my stomach I pulled the pillow up over my head.

"Lily, time to get up, you don't want to miss out on breakfast now do you?" Sara's voice rang through the hallway. I let out another groan and sat up.

My hair was sticking up like medusa's, minus the snakes of course. I zombie walked over to my dresser and grabbed my brush, picked out my dark blue jeans, t-shirt and my second white jean jacket. My eyes kept closing on the way to bathroom.

"LILY!"

"Ah!" I jumped a mile high. I turned around in a defensive position "What! What's wrong!?" I watched Tiffany step back trying to make it unnoticeable.

"Uh- hmm, nothing wrong…yet. Those Karate lessons are really getting to you." Here eyes were wide awake and she was already dressed.

"Then what did you call me for?" I swung my clothes over my shoulder and flipped my brush in the air.

"Uh- heh, that's the yet part. Sam clogged up your toilet." My eyes got wide and I felt my cheeks turn red. She backed up and I was ready to attack Sam. I took a deep breath and in my calmest voice I asked "Tiffany, where is Sam?" She pointed to the den. I smiled "Thank you." and ran off to the den.

"SAM!" I yelled as loud as possible. His back was facing me and I saw Brandon smirk.

"Sam, you are so dead."

"Shut it Brandon!"

"Hey there-" Sam turned around "Uh-" He cleared his voice "Princess."

"YOU USED MY BATHROOM! WHAT HAPPENED TO YOURS!?" I felt like blowing fire. We each had our own bathroom, and mine was well, MINE!

"Here's the thing cutie I-" We heard a low growl. "Did you hear that?" I didn't really care so I ignored it.

"Well, I will find a bathroom. Cya." I waved my hand as I turned and left to get dressed.

I went into James' bathroom. He never cared when I went in there, he was eating breakfast anyways. I brushed my hair along with my teeth and changed out of my pajamas and into my day clothes. I grabbed my pajamas and threw them in my room then headed to breakfast.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and almost fell out of my seat.

"Woah there, just me." Sarah smiled at me. "hey there you feeling alright." I let her wrap her arms around me and rest her head on my shoulder. Sarah and I were closer then she was with the others. "Want some cherries and you can tell me what's been going on the past week since the show." She went to the fridge and I looked back at the den with everyone sitting on the couch watching 'Once Upon A Time'. I looked back to Sarah and saw the bowl of cherries. She leaned on the counter in front of me and smiled at me.

"I don't know." I took a cherry and was about to put it in my mouth when her hand caught mine. "Hey, I want my cherry." I whined.

She laughed "Not until you tell me something first, then you can have the cherry." She smirked.

I sighed in defeat "It's these nightmares I have been having" I started to rub my fingers "about my past."

She looked at me for a minute with concern "Well, want to tell me what specifically it's about?"

I shook my head continuing to stare at my hands. She brushed my cheek and whipped away a tear I hadn't even noticed. I looked up to see her comforting smile. More tears started to stream out and I felt her hold me and lead me to her room. She sat me on the bed and plopped down next to me. I felt her arms come around me and lead my head to lean on her shoulder, I did as she wanted.

I finally calmed down and looked up to see her face "You won't leave right?"

She pulled away and laughed "As far as I'm concerned, I'm not going anywhere." I couldn't help but smile. "Yup, I have 60 more years on me." A confident smile crossed her face.

"But I thought you were 40?" Her mouth dropped and I sniffled with a laugh.

"I can make it to 100, and I will be there to laugh in your face on my 100th birthday." We laughed and she held me tight while rocking me. "So, how about telling me about that dream of yours?"

I took a deep breath "Well, My mom was an um- she was very loving, gentle, and kind. She was very beautiful and everyone who met her loved her and she loved them. Anyways something bad happened and she had to send me away. She never came back for me. Now I keep having nightmares about her and monsters." I looked up and saw Sarah emotionless. "Sarah, are you mad at me?" I looked at the floor afraid of her answer.

I felt two fingers tilt my chin up "Of course not. Why on earth would I be mad at you? Now come on lets get you some cherry flavored ice-cream. Sound good?" I nodded with a smile that stretched almost all the way to my ears. She kissed my head and led me to the kitchen.

We got the small container of cherry flavored ice-cream and joined everyone on the couch.

"There she is." James grinned at me and patted the seat next to him. I set my self down between him and Sarah.

"So what are we watching?" Sarah took a scoop of the ice-cream.

"Well, that's the problem. The boys can't seem to agree with us on picking a simple movie." Crystal threw up her hands.

I watched as Sam smirked and put his arm around Crystal, then I peered over to Tiffany leaning into Brandon.

"Alright, I am going to pick." Sarah announced with ice- cream in her mouth. "How about… Twilight Breaking Dawn prt 2." We all groaned with disapproval. "Hey you all couldn't pick a movie so it was up to me." She snapped. Tiffany got up and placed the DVD in and we began our movie all cuddled up on the couch.

"So how about just a movie day today?" I felt Sarah stroke my hair. We all nodded and agreement.

We watched 5 movies and finished eating pizza.

"Alright my children, time for bed." We sighed and headed to our rooms. I got dressed and got all set in bed, but I was afraid to sleep. Sarah came by for her usual bedroom checks and stopped at mine. I looked over at her.

"Can you stay with me until I fall asleep?" I nervously asked. She came over to my bed and lifted up the covers to hop in.

"Sure thing cutie." I felt her arms wrap around me and hold me close. It wasn't long before I fell asleep.

Red Queen's Castle

"Have you taken care of the girl's family?" The queen spoke in a calming tone.

The creature felt a false sense of security "No, I don't see why we need that little brat, I mean she-"

"I NEED THAT GIRL!?" The queen growled. She took a deep breath and sighed "Take care of those insolent people she calls family, or it will be you loosing your head." The creature grabbed his throat and took off whimpering. The queen grinned full of hate and rubbed the orb on her golden staff. "Lily if only you knew what you were capable of." A sly grin crossed her face. She started to cough "Knave!" She hollered and the man with the eye patch came in and kissed her hand.

"Yes, my queen?"

"Make sure that cat is still in his cell. Oh, and be careful of the shield around it." He left and she rubbed her throat "I need some tea."
