~~Lilly's P.O.V~~

"Ugh! Work was so stressful!" I heardy mum mutter away to herself, cursing.

"Hey, you okay mum?" I asked, coming down the stairs.

She looked at me, irritated. "Sweetie, please go to your room."
"Why? You okay?" I asked,concerned. "Go!!"
"You're always telling me to fuck off! What is that? Huh?! It's like.. you're not even my mother anymore!"

"Lilly, you're not important right now! You just want attention! Everyone pretends to be your friends for my money! You only self-harm for attention. Just do everyone a favour and go." she slammed me into the wall, hitting my left arm. I screamed in pain. "S-sorry, sweetie I...". I ran outside.

I stood there, shivering why didn't I bring a hoodie? I got my phone out of my bag.

*ringg ringg*
V-"Hello?"
L- "y-you busy? "
V- "Why, Lilly what's wrong??"
L- "N-nothing...if I tell you where I am, can you c-come? I-I'll explain later..."
V- text me the address, I'm on my way.

I stopped and texted him my address and wait for him outside, I'm not putting up with that anymore. I quickly grabbed some clothes and other essentials I'd need for overnight. I'll go to a hotel if I have to. After all, I do have access to mother's bank account.
"Lilly? You look cold! Why aren't you at home?" Vikk came up to me and hugged me. I bit my lip wincing at the pain, still holding my arm. "Lilly??" He took off his jacket and put it around me. "Nah, y-you keep it..." I stirred on my words; as if I was drunk. "What happened?" Vikk asked me, concern filling his voice.

"I've hurt my arm, it hurts like hell, but I'll be fine! But I am not staying with her." I said disgusted at my own mother's actions towards her daughter. Still shaking, Vikk put his arm around me.

"Well, looks like a pretty bad sprain..." The says, looking at my results "How did this happen?"
Thinking of a good lie, however I couldn't, "fell off my skateboard"
She looked at me, I don't think she trusted my answer, but didn't question it. Vikk, on the other hand, did. "Now, how did you actually do it?" Vikk asked as we headed out. I didn't answer him, it's not the right place, nor the right time.

It was now 8:45pm, which means its been 45 minutes since I've left my house. And I am not going back, anytime soon at least.

"I don't want to go back" I say quietly and he nods understandingly, despite not knowing what really happened. "Stay with us" I faintly smile and accept his offer. But who's 'us'?

"Hey Vikk who's the gir-- wait, Lilly? What happened to you?" Harry eyed me up and down (not like that you weirdo's)

"I was wondering the same thing..." Vikk trailed off, looking at my left arm, which was now in a sling. It's time to fess up to him, he deserves to know if he is letting me stay at his place.

"Okay Lilly, what's been going on?" He leaned against the door.
I sighed, "my mum." I took a breath. He looked at me with sympathy before hugging me.
"I'm sorry... Why didn't you tell me?!"
"I thought you'd get mad..." I start, feeling a little guilty.
"I would if you weren't hurt! That's what matters to me, that you're safe. You're my girlfriend and I want what's best for you. I promise I'll never let anything bad happen to you." Even after everything that has happened to me, he still manages to make me smile.

"I know you live with Harry but...who else lives here?"
He changed the subject, which was peculiar. "Guess what? I heard that Lauren broke her nose, well, more like you broke her nose." I smirk a little, the bitch deserved it.

"Hey Vikk, can I come in?" Simon? It sounded like Simon. Why was he here? He opened the door.
He saw me "Vikk.. why the fuck are you with my sister at night?!"
"Nothing! God, no!" Vikk blushed. Then I think Simon clicked that I wasn't wearing a sling just for the hell of it.
"sorry, wait, what the hell happened?" Simon hugged me, slightly protectively.
"M-Mum..." I stuttered.
"What else did she do? Did she say anything?"

I cried at the thought of her wanting me gone. But Lilly, doesn't everyone want you gone?

"Y-you..." I stuttered. "'Everyone's your friend for money' no one needs me.. so what am I d-doing here?" More tears rolled down my face as I escape from Simon's grip.

"She's wrong! You're important, not just to me, but also to your brother! And everyone else." He doesn't know about the cutting, but I can't waltz into his home and drop two bombs onto them.
Simon sighed "He's right, you can stay here tonight, or for as long as you need."

I woke up, not in my bed, but Vikk's. Great. That means last night was real. I carefully got out of bed, trying not to wake Vikk. I still need to get changed, but I'm not quite sure how. "Look who's finally up." Harry smiled at me as I walked downstairs.

"Oh shut up, it was a rough evening alright?" I laughed

"Yep guys, she'd survive living here." He smiled looking at the others. Wait, others?

"Care to tell me who lives here now?" I sat on the sofa next to Harry, taking small sips of my scorching hot coffee.

"JJ, Josh, Tobi, Vikk, Ethan and Simon. He has a room but us sometimes looking after your dad..." I waved at all the guys sitting on the sofa, or floor.
"Hey Lilly ever heard of YouTube?"
Simon asked from behind me.

"Uh...why?" I asked. He doesn't know I have a channel.
"Because, we all have channels." Josh chimed in.
"I have a channel too." I hesitate.
"You do?" Vikk asked shocked. I giggle and take JJ's phone and show them my channel.

I walked Vikk's room where I had left my clothes in a pile at the end of his bed but Vikk was in there, shirtless. I tried not to look but instead I just stared, blushing. Simon, you dick! He said he wouldn't be in there. "Like what you see?" Vikk laughed, catching my glance.

"W-what?" I looked away. Was I really staring? "Oh Simon you are dead meat!" I muttered to myself.
"What did he say?" Vikk asked suspiciously. I explained and he rolled his eyes "typical"

"Hey, Lilly?" Vikk asked, still blushing. "Won't you need help getting dressed?"
"Oh, Uh... Well, I could ask Harry since we're soo close." I teased. "Nah, I'll manage, somehow." I enter the bathroom still with a smug look on my face.

Harry must've overheard too because when I came down the stairs, he was smirking at me, along with Simon. I glared at him, trying not to smile. I did. It wasn't much, but I did
"Come on I'm sure you liked whatever you saw." Harry mumbled a little too loud. We all looked at him. I walked up to Simon. "You're so lucky you know that?"
"Oh yeah and why's that?" He asked.
"Because if my arm wasn't sprained, you'd be dead or I'd hurt you, bro."
He laughed. "Oooh I'm soo scared."
"mm, but you should be" I smirk, walking away and sitting between Ethan and Vikk on the sofa

And I'm out!!! Baii doods!
