Lily

I never really liked school because I didn't have any friends and I was always by myself in the library. The only time someone would talk to me was to make fun of me, because my hair was short, because I looked like a boy, because I was bi and because I was alone. The only person who didn't pick on me was Ellie, she normally just looked and smiled, but never talked to me. I might of had friends if I had spoken up, but it's too late now. People have been spreading stuff about me so no one wants to be my friend. It doesn't bother me most of the times but, maybe if I had someone to talk to I would feel better. Then I met her.

Two weeks after Christmas, I was reading in the library as usual, when I heard a voice, my first reaction was that someone was going to make fun, again. But when I looked up, I saw that she was smiling, not in a mean way but in a way that made me, happy.

Her name was Lily, she had long black hair, and she was almost completely in black, except for her jeans which were dark blue. She was the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen. She sat next to me we didn't have to talk, we just enjoyed each other's company. After 20 minutes of silence Lily finally spoke "Why are you alone?" She said whilst staring at me with her bright blue eyes. I told her about me being picked on and how I'm always alone. Then she asked a question which was out of the blue " where do you live, I could walk with you." Almost immediately I told her just so I wasn't alone, it's funny how desperate you get when you don't have friends. So, I asked her the same question but she simply shrugged and said "I don't know, but it's close to where you live" I was confused by this, but I ignored it because i didn't really care.

The end of the day came and as promised, Lily walked home with me. We were walking towards the alleyway I normally walk down and I slowed down, this was the place where I was always beat up, let me assure you that i have tried to find a different root home but there was only one way (How unfortunate) The same three people were there, just waiting, Caitlin, Pipper and Mikey. Caitlin was really tall and skinny, she always tripped me up in the hall ways through out school, every one laughed. Mikey was the strongest out of all of them, he always pins me up to the wall by my collar and chucks me to the ground. Pipper is the worst one, she's the head of their group and  probably the person that everyone looks up to, she's the one who tells everyone the rumors and tells Mikey and Caitlin to bully me, yeah she's a bitch. I walked towards the alleyway, Lily asked me "Who are they?" I didn't answer. As soon as I stepped into that alley way, the bullying started.

"Look who's here" Pipper said, she pressed her cigarette Against my skin, I didn't scream, I'm used to it, there's now a permanent black burn mark from all the times she's done that. I looked at Lily, she was just staring, the others didn't even notice her they were too focused on making  me suffer. Before I new it, a massive force smashed against my face, Mikey had thrown a brick, blood was dripping from my head, I couldn't see, I couldn't stand, I could barley breathe. Lily started to scream, she was curled up in a ball, scared for her life just like i was, nobody noticed. They all started kicking at my helpless body, all I could do was watch Lily cry her eyes out. I blacked out.

I woke up, with Lily screaming at me, I could feel her warm tears dripping onto my face. She gave me some tissues and rapped a piece of cloth around my head, "Does this happen every day" she squealed trying  to hold back her tears. I nodded, not even looking at her, she didn't need to see that. "Don't worry I will make sure they won't hurt you again" Lily smiled and put her arm around me, we sat there until it was nearly dark, the blood had dried and I managed to pick it off, I put on my jacket to cover up the blood on my shirt, I struggled to get up but I managed. I said thank you to Lily and we parted ways. I couldn't sleep that night, my back was to bruised and smashed  in, to let me get a good night's sleep. I kept thinking about what Lily said " won't let them hurt you again" What's that supposed to mean, how can she make them stop, they didn't even notice her. I cried myself to sleep that night, I didn't have any dreams it was just darkness.

The next day I didn't see Mikey, Caitlin or even Pipper, this was strange but to be honest I'm glad. I met Lily in the library, when I saw her she looked so exited, her cheeks were so red, which didn't go well with her dark clothes, "Guess what! Guess what!" She shouted, as we sat down on the library chairs. "What!?" I shouted back, I got a lot of weird looks when I shouted that.

"I got rid of those people" Lily grinned, I was so confused " who, what are you talking about" I was still smiling but it was a nervous grin. "The people that bullied you! There gone!" She was almost dancing at this point, but her laugh had changed, it was almost a laugh of an insane person. "Lily your scaring me, what did you do?" I backed away from her, both of us weren't laughing anymore. "What's wrong. Aren't you happy that I silenced them?" She said, her voice was deeper then usual, "I'm not gonna lie, they were a tough bunch and that big guy was hard to hide. But i managed" her smile was wide and it scared me...no it terrified me. I did not see a beautiful girl, instead I saw a psychopath, nobody even noticed that she was saying she just killed someone. Why did no one care! I got up immediately after she said that "I have to go. Don't follow me" Everyone was staring at me, at this point, confused looks everywhere as I walked out.

When school ended I ran out of school and went to the alleyway to see if what Lily said was true. I stopped at the alleyway and I almost threw up, Caitlin, Mikey and Pipper weren't there, I couldn't move, I couldn't do anything. "See I told you" My heart froze, those four words echoed in my mind, I turned around, my eyes watering, standing there was Lily. "Why did you do this" I said, my voice squeaking as I began to cry. "They were hurting you so I killed them" Her voice wasn't sweet anymore, it was the voice of a murderer "get away from me, you bitch!" As soon as I sad those words Lily grabbed my neck and pushed me to the ground,  "I WILL NEVER GET AWAY FROM YOU, YOU CAN'T GET AWAY FROM ME! I'M ALWAYS THERE!" she smiled and let go of me, i lay there not sure of what just happened.

when I went to bed that night, I could barley breathe my neck still hurt from before, I almost went to sleep when I saw... I saw Lily, standing next to my head before  I could react she pounced on me putting her hand round my mouth she had trouble keeping me down but my body was weak from all the beating i got at school. How the hell. No how the fuck did she get into my room! Lily pulled out a knife, and started pressing  it against my skin, she made light cuts, deep enough to bleed and be painful but shallow enough so I didn't die. She slowly cut the knife into my skin, I tried to scream, but I still couldn't breathe well from before. The pain was unbearable, each cut was so painful, I could see the blood dripping onto my bed. I ended up lying in blood. I thought it would never end, until my mum came storming in, she screamed an ear pricing scream, I looked back up to Lily she just smiled and jumped out of my window, the last thing I saw was my mum calling 999.

The next thing I knew I was in a hospital bed, my vision was blurry but it soon cleared, I saw bandages all over my body, and I saw my mum crying next to me. She looked up at me and held my hand. I thought the first thing she would of said was "who was that girl" but instead she said something I never would of expected, " Why... why did you do that to yourself" I was in panic I was so confused "what?" I squealed. "When I found you. You were holding a knife in your hand, making small cuts in your body. You weren't even screaming!" I couldn't breathe I couldn't of done this to myself I saw Lily she was there when it happened. I wanted to say all these things but I just lied there. My mum left me alone for a bit she was crying her eyes out. I already knew Lily was there, after all she's always there.He he He Ha ha ha HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I forgot to mention, my name... is Lily
