Home Sweet Home [PLL]

Hot Water

"Lily!" Caleb called as he entered the silent house and was immediately hit with the strong smell of alcohol. "Lil!" There was still no reply but Teddy had evidently found out where Lily was because he ran off in the direction of the kitchen and Caleb followed after, shocked by what he saw "Lil!"

There were countless bottles of empty alcoholic drinks scattered across every kitchen surface and the floor too. And also on the floor was Lily, completely passed out

"Oh my god, Lily," Caleb crouched down immediately and tried to shake her but it didn't work, Caleb "Lily, come on!" Caleb grabbed her harder and lifted her so she was resting on his knees "Lily!" He shouted

The brunette suddenly gasped as her eyes flew open and the relief Caleb felt was short lived as she suddenly doubled over and threw up on the floor. Caleb pulled her already dirty hair behind her shoulders and rubbed her back gently until she was done throwing up

When Lily had finally stopped, the tears began rolling down her cheeks and sobs escaped her mouth which frightened Caleb. Normally she was the strongest girl on the earth, but suddenly she was weak, fragile, vulnerable. And all he could do to help was hug her and hope she would be okay

The pair of them sat on their kitchen floor while Lily cried into Caleb's shirt for what was probably hours until she calmed down, but even then she couldn't bring herself to move

"I want help," Lily choked out "I'm scared, I need help,"

"Are you sure?" Caleb asked 

"Yeah," Lily nodded shakily "I can't be here,"

2 hours later Caleb was driving Lily up to a mountain rehabilitation centre where she would be staying until she felt safe and comfortable enough to return to Rosewood
