Morning rolled around faster than either girl wanted to admit. Lillie's curtains letting a small amount of sunlight into the otherwise dark room, rolling over Lillies arms instinctively wrapped around the small frame that lay next to her.
Lillie's POV:
A smile creeped onto my lips as I felt the smaller, warm body snuggle itself closer to me, slowly waking up I glanced down to inspect her features taking in the beauty of her jaw, her cheeks and flicking between her lips and nose. "so beautiful" I mumbled burrying my head as close to the top of her head as I could, noting that the angle hurt my neck just a smidge, I let out a contented sigh letting my thoughts wonder around finally landing on the thought of having to have the conversation that was always dreaded whenever we were in these situations. I know I should stop it all and stop her from using me as comfort but I wanted to have anything, anything at all that reminded me of the good times... the times before my life went to shit and I lost everything.
I was snapped out of my thoughts by the movement coming from beside me, a lazy arm pulled me even closer as she whispered out "mornin'.. what time is it?" I checked the time on my phone, 0745, "way too early bub" I replied with hopes she'd fall back asleep and we could avoid the conversation a little longer, however as fate would have it she shuffled back a bit, looking up at me her tired eyes looking puffy knowing she had basically cried herself to sleep last night in my arms. "We need to talk about it, I know you don't want to but we need to.. I'm sorry again for putting you in this position" her voice was raspy as she spoke slowly, trying to avoid my gaze as I nodded taking in what she said, I know she's right though, it's only going to be worse if we don't.
"Starting with us or Gia?" It always starts with us but I was hoping to get the easier topic over with first to avoid the never ending talk.
"us" her reply was short but had so many emotions behind it as she looked back up at me, finally meeting my gaze, those damn hazel eyes capturing my full attention as I tensed my body trying not to swell with tears
A few minutes of silence filled around us as I stared down her trying to force words out of my mouth. "I-I" stuttering over that simple letter I thought of how I didn't know how to start this conversation again, it's been too long since the last one. I genuinely thought that she had changed this time and that I'd finally be able to keep the distance this time "you what?" Kelani's soft voice broke though the silence this time: her voice made me weak and I softly broke down "I don't know this time, I've tried so hard to just respect you and it's been so long, half a year to be exact and now you're here again... you always come back and I'm sick of giving you advice that you constantly ignore. Why don't you tell me what's happening between us." My voice got snappy towards the end and as a groan of frustration left my mouth I felt a cold and empty feeling grow around me, Kehlani was leaving my side, as I opened my eyes and looked at her she opened her mouth but nothing came out. "Of course" I mumbled it to myself not wanting to be heard. "I'm not leaving, not this time, I hear you. I hear the pain in your voice and I'm sorry I ever put you through that I was so wrong" Those words lingered in the air as kehlani came back, this time closer, "I want you"
I couldn't focus on anything but her in that moment, I want you, that was all I needed to hear before a smile broke out on my lips.

No one's pov:
As Lillie and Kehlani continued to talk through their situation and smiling softly at each other a car pulled up outside and suddenly a loud banging at the front door. The door was opened by a tired looking teenager, Abby, Lillie's younger sister glared at the woman stood on the front steps pushing straight past her and towards one of the hallways deciding to go left and heading towards the bedrooms. "WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU KEHLANI" the voice could be heard throughout the whole house causing panic and fear to spread throughout Kehlani's whole body. Lillie snapped her head toward the door and quickly stood up angrily walking out to be met face to face with Gia, looking down at the red haired girl she started to speak calmly, with a look of hatred in her eyes "get. The. Fuck. Out. Of. My. House. Now." As the last words left her mouth it became more of a growl as each word made her angrier, forcefully Gia pushed her away from herself before taking a step toward the room knowing Kehlani must've also been in there if Lillie had just walked out of it. Lillie had only stumbled backward a step or two and now Gia was practically standing against her. "I want you out of here, now" Lillie glared at the young woman, practically a teenager still, she had no idea that the door behind her had already started opening from Gia turning the handle "or what? Gonna drag me out? You wouldn't have the balls" Gia glared back just as intensely until suddenly her throat was being gripped not expecting anything to happen the same as many others, struggling she tried to pry the hand away from her but as she was thrown against the wall a whimper was heard from inside the bedroom, Kehlani slowly looked out only to it was Gia that was taking a beating as fists were suddenly crashing into her face as Lillies knee was pressed down on her chest to keep the other still. Rage filled both of them as they continued throwing hands at the other persons direction. Abby dragged Lillie off Gia knowing that her sister would let her as she never wanted to hurt the youngster but as soon as Lillie was standing she was bent over grabbing Gia's hair and dragging her though the house not caring enough about anything being broken along the way, once they reached the front door Kehlani's voice filled the air "stop"
