It's a beautiful day today. Lovely as my girlfriend would call it. Ex-girlfriend actually, it still feels weird to call her that. Lily was a beacon of joy in my life, I don't normally use such sappy language but there is no other way to describe her. I really should be relieved, my mother still thought I was dating Noah and I could only hide Lily for so long. I think that's why she did it in the end, she knew I couldn't tell my mom and she knew she couldn't hide.

That doesn't mean I like it, though. Knowing I should be relieved doesn't mean I am. I used to look at Lily and think 'I'm so lucky to be hers, and to have her.' Now when I look at her I just wish it didn't hurt so much. Maybe this is one of those things that will get easier with time. I hope so. Because we hang out a lot. I guess it's a little lame, but at this point I don't care. Being friends with Lily, as much as it hurts, is still better than having her be out of my life completely.
