Ch.23

After Michael left we cleaned the kitchen and got ready for bed. You all know what I'm about to put on. I slip into some cow onesies and dive under my covers and stare at the moon. It's so fascinating. The way the moon lights up and glows like a light bulb.It really is a beautiful sight. I wonder what it would be like to go to the moon.

"Lily can you hear me?" A person says

I look around and I'm in, space! I look down and see that there is a rope thing attached to me and connected to a space ship thing.

"Lily, you there?" The person says again

"Uh, yeah?" I don't know what I'm doing here in space but I see the moon. I just want to reach out and touch it.

I feel like a moth attracted to a light.

I start to doggy paddle towards the moon but I'm still in the same spot. I try to be like an Olympic swimmer but I still don't budge. I try one last thing, and move like a worm. I finally start going somewhere.

I can't believe that worked out! But if this the only way, then it's worth it.

As I start to get closer I feel something snap! I look down and see the rope is floating away. I try to wiggle towards it but it's too late. I'm left aimlessly floating around space.

"Lily! Lil-" The person gets cut off

I guess I'm too far away. I turn back towards the moon but it's not there! I look around but it's just black. Black under me. Black above me. Black all over.

I feel pulling on my leg and see a black hole trying to take me under. I move quickly, wanting to escape but I have no chance getting away from the darkness...

I sit up quickly and take deep breaths. That was an interesting dream. I guess I'm not going to stare at the moon from now on.

I lay back down and drift off to a better dream that doesn't have darkness.

The next morning I wake up with a frown. It's Sunday. Which means school is tommorow.

On the other hand, school is tommorow!

I already washed and ironed my clothes cause I'm just that cool.

I sit up and flashbacks of my dream plays in my head. My upside down smile returns and my eyebrows knit together. I shake the, weird dream from my head and walk to the bathroom. I do my normal routine and then my business.

As I'm walking downstairs, I hear talking. Not just any talking, it's like, old people. It takes me a while before I come up with, grams and old man! I rush down the last few steps and run into the kitchen, where I find my grandma pouring some coffee.

"Old lady!" I smile while hugging her to death

I better stop before she actually does meet death.

"Good morning my little Lily. Oh, that's hard to say." She frowns

"Say what?" I ask, the smile still on my face

"Little Lily." She laughs

We all, by we I mean grandma, me, and my mom, try to say little Lily ten times without messing up. Grandma messed up on the third one. My Mom messed up on the fifth one. I didn't even start because I'm laughing too hard! We all walk into the living room and they sit on the love seat and I sit on the floor since the other couch is occupied.

"How you been Lily?" Grandma asks

"I've been doing just fine."

Sometimes

"Are you doing good in school?" She raises an eyebrow

"Yes ma'am." I grin

"Any boys?" She has an evil look in her eyes

"No grandma! I hate boys." My cheeks turn a light pink

"Why are you blushing." It wasn't really a question

"I, wasn't." I put on my poker face

"Mhm." She squints her eyes at me before turning her attention to my mother

I look at the time on my phone and see 10:00. I slept that long! I go upstairs and change into some black and white leggings with a long sleeve turquoise sweater. I set my uggs and scarf out just in case we leave somewhere. I brush my hair and turn it into a lace braid pony tail.

Selena is still asleep so I decide to be a nice little sister and wake her up.

"Se-"

"Don't." She cuts me off

I didn't even finish her name!

"Grandma and old fart are here." I respond

"I'll be down in five minutes." She sighs

"M' k!" I skip down the stairs and see that the old fart has woken up.

"Old man! You're still alive!" I open my arms so I can hug him

"Lilith!" He happily shouts

He always calls me Lilith because he thinks that's my real name...even though it isn't. I wonder if he even knows my real name.

"Old guy, that is not my name for the last time." I groan

"Yes it is Lilian." He laughs

"What happened to Lilith?" I ask

"See I told you your name was Lilith!" He points accusingly at me

"No, I was just asking!" I throw my hands up in the air

"Good morning family." Selena calls out as she descends the stairs

"Morning." Everyone replies

"It's almost the afternoon!" I giggle

"Yeah almost, which means it's still the morning." Grandpa points out

I purse my lips and glare at him. I love my grandpa and all, but I'm supposed to be the one who corrects people!

"Know it all." I mumble

"I heard that!" My grandpa speed walks over to me and lifts me up like a toy plane

"Oh goodness, my back." He sits me down and walk over to the couch with one hand on his lower back.

Great. I hurt my grandpas back because I'm like 1,000 lbs.

"So what are we gonna do today?" My mom claps her hands together

{ That last part reminded me of #wherewegoingtodaymark
All of her outfits and hairstyles are in the beginning of the chapter. BYEE }
