"This movie gets me every time! S-she just l-leaves him! W-who does that!" Kelly said through her tears.
    "My ex boyfriends, now get it together," Jess said, shaking Kelly and making her giggle.

     After my dispute with Dalian, the rest of the day was fine. Well, okay. Big lie. You know me, I can't pull one off. The day wasn't fine. Not in the slightest. Everyone questioned me. Even people I didn't know! It was quite weird. That was only the first 3 periods.
     During lunch, I heard the murmur. The whispers. The quick, hushed tones. The whole school was talking about how me, the brightest person here, went dull in one day. I couldn't take it.
     Aaron, Carter, and Mathew were talking about cars or something, while the girls were trying to cheer me up. They weren't doing very well.
     I was feeling a little light headed, so I got up and started to walk out. I could feel everyone's eyes burning into my back, but I never looked back. I went put through the front doors. I sat on the bench in front of the school. I tucked my knees close to my chest and wrapped my arms around them. I sat there in silence for a while, thinking about what I'll do.
     I suddenly heard the front doors open and close, meaning I wasn't alone out here.
    "Is this seat taken?" The cheesy side of Mathew said. I looked up to him and smiled. He sat down and faced me. I turned my head to look at him. He mimicked my position, and hugged his knees close to his chest. "Are you alright?" He asked.
"No," I responded, making him frown. "I don't think I'll ever be totally alright, but I know that I'll get better. It's just who I am," I said. "What I'm expected to do," I added.
"This isn't just about your brothers," He said, pressing for information. I sighed.
"Is it illegal to have a bad day for me? Every teacher asked me if I was okay, people in the classes whisper. They think I can't hear them, but I always do. 'Is something wrong with her?' or 'Is she sick? I'm not sitting next to her,'. Can I not just be sad?" I said, tears starting to collect in my eyes.
"Lilly, I can't give you a good answer," He said honestly.
"What's wrong with me," I said, full on water works right now. I'm pretty sure I've cried enough times in front of Mathew that it doesn't bother me anymore. He engulfed me in a large hug, and rubbed circles on my back as I cried in his arms.

"Girl, you need to get it together," Jess exclaimed, looking at a crying Kelly.
"This movie gets me every time! S-she just l-leaves him! W-who does that!" Kelly said through her tears. Jess grabbed some popcorn and shoved it into her mouth.
"My ex boyfriends, now get it together," Jess said, shaking Kelly and making her giggle. I giggled as well. We had decided to have a girl night/sleepover at Jess's house. We were watching some soppy romance movie, because we're girls.
"Get off me you fat cow!" Kelly said while laughing.
"Oh no you didn't!" Jess exclaimed, grabbing a pillow. Kelly look frightened as Jess towered over her in a creepy way.
"I think she did..." I said quietly, making them break focus and bust out laughing.
"You ruined the mood," Jess wined jokingly. I grabbed a pillow and smacked her in the head. Kelly gasped as Jess looked stunned.
"You," She said, pointing to me. "Have made a terrible mistake. I am the pillow fight QUEEN!" She yelled, smacking me in the face. I aimed for her, but accidentally got Kelly instead.
"Sorry!" I said, hoping she wouldn't fight back. I was wrong. Kelly grabbed a pillow and started swinging it. Soon, it was a WWE pillow fight. It was a good thing Jess's parents weren't home. Who knows what they would think was happening up here. Wait, not like that! You guys are gross. Not what I meant at all.
After our all out fluffy fight, we were all ready for bed. It was about 12:45 when we actually went to sleep.

They were there, standing next to each other. Both in their fancy suits and nicely combed hair. I expected them to jump for joy when they saw me, but they stood there. They were practically statutes. I went over to hug them, but they pushed me away. It was obvious that I was hurt.
"Why Lilly? Why would you take us from mother? We could've had a better life! A better one than you would ever give us. A normal life. But no, you were the weird sister we just had to have. Figures that we'd have such bad luck. You did cause Brandon to be paralyzed his whole life!" Timothy yelled. What he said stung, but It was all true.
"Timothy, I-I was trying to pro-"
"Trying to protect us? You ruined my only chance at being normal! We should've been protected from you," Brandon yelled, fury in his voice.
"I-I'm so sorry..." I said, looking down.
"Are you crying? Aw, look at the brother, we've broken our sister. That's all you deserve Lilly Ann Lycaster, brokenness. Heart break. You shouldn't even be able to breath," Timothy said with a smirk. I wiped my tears away and looked at my brothers. They both had the same creepy smile. Suddenly, it seemed like the room was being compressed. The air seemed to leave the atmosphere. I was choking, scrambling just to get a glimmer of hope. The world seemed to go black, and I fell.

I shot up. I took deep breaths, trying to control my breathing. I soon got it to a normal pace, and figured that I would go outside and get some fresh air. Kelly and Jess were still asleep. I grabbed my phone and squinted at its bright light. 4:34 am. Too. Early. I quietly went downstairs and onto the porch. I sat on the ground and stared at the sky, at the stars. Who knew big balls of gas could look so beautiful. If a ball of gas can look that pretty, why can't I? I chuckled at my own joke and stared into the stars, thinking a million thoughts at once.
Hey, whats up, hello. Sorry, I have songs swirling in my mind. How did you like that dream? Also that WWE pillow fight. Epic right? I know. Well, happy Monday everyone. Hope yours wasn't as awful as mine. Also, I'm going to do quotes on Mathews chapters, and sentences of the chapter on Lilly's chapters.
