Chapter Three

"We are sticking you two with the wedding tradition, you won't see each other the night before. So Lil will come stay with me." Kimi said sitting at the table.

Tommy and Lil looked at each other "Shouldn't we be the ones to decide that?" Lil asked taking a sip of her coffee.

"Nope. It'll give Tommy some time to think about it he really wants to marry you." Phil smiled as Lil shot him a look. Kimi elbowed him in the side and he just gave her a smile.

Tommy rolled his eyes and put his arm around Lil "Of course I want to marry her"

"You two really should do tradition though. With your luck, if you don't do it everything will go wrong." Kimi said nodding.

Lil sighed and looked at Tommy "I guess we can. I mean, it's only for one night."

"If you want to." he kissed her cheek and stood up "Where would Chelsea stay?"

"Definitely not with you guys" Kimi said laughing.

"If I recall, Chelsea got injured under yours and Lil's watch" Tommy said from the kitchen

"It was an accident!" Lil and Kimi both yelled to him. He laughed and sat back down next to Lil.

"I'd rather her be with us and not the guys." Lil said as Chelsea walked in.

"Morning Chels!" Phil said picking her up.

"In two days, you'll be staying at my house" Kimi said with a smile.

"Why?"

"It's for a tradition, your mommy will be there too" Kimi said with a smile as Lil set a bowl with some cereal in it in front of Chelsea.

"How does it feel, Lillian? In two days you're going to be married." Phil said looking over at his sister.

Lil smiled back at him "It's exciting, Phillip."

The next day Lil went to the store leaving Tommy home with Chelsea. Tommy was sitting on the couch when there was a knock on the door. He got up and answered it "Savannah..?" she pushed her way into his apartment.

"Tommy, I've been thinking about you a lot lately. I don't even know why, but I really miss you."

Tommy stared at her for a minute before saying anything "We've been broken up for four years, you need to leave"

Savannah shook her head and took a step closer to him "I want you back, Tommy."

"I'm engaged, Savannah! I'm getting married tomorrow!"

Savannah got a mischievous smile and shrugged "I can change that." she pulled him into a kiss. He pushed her away and saw Lil standing behind her.

"Tommy... What the hell are you doing?!"

Tommy pushed Savannah out of his way and walked over to Lil "I swear it's not what it looks like!"

Lil took a step away from him, tears starting to form "Savannah.. You need to get out of my house" Savannah looked between them. She still had a smile on her face. She gave Tommy a wink before walking out.

"Lil, please let me explain!"

"Explain what?! That you were cheating on me?!" Lil had tears running down her face now.

"No, Lil! I wasn't I wouldn't cheat on you! Savannah came over and kissed me!" Chelsea had been sitting on the couch. But the minute they started fighting she got up and ran to her room.

"That's bullshit, Tommy! I trusted you! And I come in to catch you with your ex-girlfriend!"

"You have to believe me, Lil. I didn't want her here, I didn't want her to kiss me! Please Lil."

Lil shook her head. She couldn't even look at Tommy. The two argued for what seemed like hours. Lil walked into the bedroom and shut the door. She put her back against it and slid down pulling her knees to her chest and letting the tears fall.

Tommy sat on the couch and put his face into his hands. Phil walked in and saw him sitting alone "Hey T, where's Lil?"

Tommy moved his hands away and looked at Phil. His eyes were red from crying and Phil was surprised. He had never seen Tommy cry before. Tommy stood up "She's in the bedroom" he walked into the bathroom shutting and locking the door.

Phil knew something happened between them. He didn't know what, but he was going to find out. He was walking to the bathroom but stopped when he passed Chelsea's room. He slowly opened the door and saw Chelsea curled up in a ball on her bed. "Chels? You okay?" he walked over to her bed and looked up at him and shook her head "Come on. Come with me." Phil picked her up and made his way over to Kimi's.

******
"Kimi?" she came walking out of her room and into the living room.

"Hey Phil! And Chelsea...? Why is Chelsea here?"

Phil sat down and sighed "Lil and Tommy got in a fight and it scared her."

"What was the fight about?"

Phil shrugged. "That's all Chelsea told me. But it must have been bad, Tommy was crying."

"Uncle Phil... Are mommy and daddy going to be okay?" Chelsea looked up at Phil.

Phil looked over at Kimi and sighed "I hope so Chels."

Kimi and Phil finally got Chelsea to go to sleep. Phil was sitting on the couch when his phone went off "Lil? Are you okay?"

"Do you have Chelsea?" Phil could tell just by her voice how hurt she was.

"Yes, whatever happened between you and Tommy scared her."

"Can you come home? I need my brother more than anything right now." Lil's voice was shaking, she was trying not to start crying again.

Phil could hear how desperate she was and it broke his heart. "Yeah, I'll be right over." he hung up and got off the couch.

"Watch Chelsea. I'm going to check on Lil." Kimi nodded as Phil walked out.

Lil was sitting on her bed staring at her engagement ring. She wasn't sure if they were still going to get married or not. She brought out of her thought by a knock at the door "Lil?"

She jumped off the bed and opened the door for him "Phil!" she looked around the apartment "Where's Tommy?"

"I'm not sure. Are you okay?"

Lil shook her head and sat on the couch. Phil sat next to her "What happened?"

Lil started crying again "I walked in to see Tommy and Savannah kissing"

Phil looked at Lil "His ex, Savannah?" Lil nodded wiping away tears.

"He loves you, Lil. You've known him since we were babies, and you should know he wouldn't cheat. He's not the cheating type. He left her for you. I know it probably looked bad but did you actually ask what happened? I walked in and he was torn up about the fight. He was crying, and we both know that Tommy doesn't cry. Tommy would never in a million years cheat on you, Lillian. I am here to support you, and I will kick his ass for hurting you this bad, but trust me when I say that he wouldn't cheat on you." Phil looked over at Lil and she looked in thought about what he said.

"Thank you, Phillip." she said before she got up and walked to her room. She picked her phone up and called Tommy asking him to come home. She walked back out to the living room and sat back down "I overreacted, didn't I?"

"Technically, no. If I walked in and saw Kimi's ex there kissing her, I'd think the worst too."

Lil was messing with her engagement ring on the verge of tears again "Do you think he'll still want to marry me?"

Tommy walked through the door as Lil asked that "Nothing would ever stop me from marrying you"

Lil jumped off the couch and threw her arms around his neck "I'm so sorry" she said through sobs. Tommy wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer to him.

Phil walked by them and looked at Lil "I'm glad I could help, Lil" she gave him a small smile before he walked out.

Lil gave Tommy a kiss on his cheek. She looked into his eyes and could see that he was still hurt "I'm so sorry, Tommy. I really am. I should have know you wouldn't cheat it just scared me and I'm just so sorry"

Tommy leaned down and gave her a kiss "I know you are. I'm sorry too. Savannah isn't worth opening the door for"

"I love you so much" she pulled him into another kiss.

"I love you too. Where's Chelsea?" he walked over to the couch and Lil followed sitting next to him.

"Phil took her. He said the fight scared her" she put her head in Tommy's lap and stretched out on the couch "He'll bring her back later."

Tommy started playing with Lil's hair, putting her to sleep. He sighed. He felt bad for what happened, but there was no changing it. He also knew that Phil was going to kill him for hurting Lil. He was just happy that they are fine, and that they are still getting married the next day.
