I was awake, but I didn't want to open my eyes. I heard someone moving around in my room and cursing a lot. Then I remembered last night with Jack and I grinned. As I rolled over, I caught sight of Jack's butt in my face.
"Well that's a nice sight to wake up to." I smirked.
Jack jumped. He turned round and threw a shirt at me. He giggled quietly, then continued to get dressed. I sighed; in a few minutes he'd be gone and I'd be all alone again. No one to make me smile. No one to cheer me up properly when I'm down. I crawled out of bed, looking at Jack with puppy eyes.
"C'mon Lily." sighed Jack. "You'll be at my place later for practice!"
"Yeah but it won't be the same." I whined. "Everyone's gonna be there meaning we can't have time to ourselves without being found out."
"We can if you come over early." he murmured.
I looked up at Jack. His face had spread into a mischievous smile, making him look more adorable than normal. Jack was leaning down to kiss me but I ducked out of his way when I heard movement from the hallway, meaning Zack was awake.
"I better go." he whispered, obviously panicking.
I threw open my bedroom window and Jack immediately jumped out, just incase Zack came in. I quickly followed him, lighting up as I did. Jack shot me a disapproving look.
"What?" I chuckled quietly.
"Lily it's like 7 in the morning." he sighed.
"Your point is?" I shrugged. "Now skidaddle before someone sees you."
Jack started to climb down the drain pipe, but stopped before his head disappeared out of my sight.
"Lily?"
"Jacky?"
"I love you." he grinned.
"I love you too." I grinned back.
He practically slid down the pipe, landing almost perfectly on his feet, and sprinted up the yard to the trees. I waited until he totally disappeared from sight, then took a long drag and blew the smoke out through my nose. It looked really unattractive, but it was so fucking cool. I heard my door open and someone come in. I knew who it was straight away.
"Out here, Zack." I said loudly.
I'd barely finished saying his name when he appeared at my side. I shifted up a little and invited him to sit down but he shook his head.
"I might fall!" he exclaimed.
"Pussy." I tutted.
"Am not."
"Are too."
"Am not."
"Oh my god we sound like 5 year olds." I laughed.
Zack and I looked at each other then burst into hysterical laughter. His face was bright red he was laughing so much, and I almost fell of the roof. I thought Zack didn't see, but he did. His hand shot out of the window and he made me go back inside. My return to my bedroom wasn't exactly graceful; I tripped slightly and fell inside, exposing my underwear to Zack. And it wasn't exactly underwear that your brother is supposed to see, let's put it that way.
"Seriously, Lily?" he groaned, shielding his eyes.
"I was warm last night!" I protested.
He knew I was lying. I'm always cold at night, no matter the season, and I always wear pretty much my entire wardrobe to bed just so I can stay warm.
"Whatever." he chuckled. "Anyway, you still coming to band practice?"
Shit. I needed a good lie as to why I'd be at Jack's earlier than him. Something in my head clicked; Kara!
"Well I'm going over to Kara's for the day, so I'll go to Jack's place from there."
Dammit I'm good. He didn't even question me, just agreed and left the room. I noticed he was wearing long sleeves again. He has literally never worn long sleeves in his entire life, so I really don't understand his new obsession with them.
"Boys..." I sighed.
I grabbed my phone off the window and text Kara. Now I thought about it, I actually wanted to go and see her for a while, so it wouldn't be lying really.
Lily: Hey gurl hey! Wanna spend some time with your woman?
Kara: Yes please Lilybear! I need snuggles...I'm sick :(
L: Nooooooo :( Never fear, nurse Lily is here! I'll be at your place at 12(ish...kinda...give or take like an hour) LOVEYOU xxxxxxx
K: You're the bestest :) LOVEYOUMORE xxxxxxx
"She is just the cutest." I giggled.
It was way too early, so I decided to try and go back asleep. This failed however, because of Zack coming back into my room and blasting my music really loud. Even though it was New Found Glory and I loved them, I still wanted to murder him. It's 8 in the fucking morning! He didn't even get the chance to turn it down. I sprang out of bed and chased him all over the house, throwing various shoes, items of clothing and anything else I could get my hands on at him. He ran out the front door and I hatched a plan. I slammed it shut behind him and locked it. I went into the living room and watched him through the window as he tried to open it.
"Lily, come on." moaned Zack. "This isn't funny."
"You should be where I am!" I laughed. "Oh wait..."
"Fuck you!" he laughed. "Lily, please let me in?"
"Ugh if I must..." I groaned.
After around 5 minutes of dawdling, I unlocked the door and opened it slowly. Zack came charging in, diving on me and pushing me to the floor. He was on top of me, a mischievious smile on his face. I knew exactly what he was thinking.
"No." I snapped. "I swear to god I will fucking murder you."
His smile got bigger as his hands brushed against my sides. I started to squirm slightly; I hated being tickled, or even someone brushing their hands against my skin. He slapped both of his hands against my hips, which hurt even more than it would normally because I was so thin. Zack bit his lip, but he carried on teasing me.
"Zacky stop..." I whined.
"Payback, bitch." he smirked.
I squealed loudly, kicking my legs everywhere as Zack tickled me. I did my best to try and hit his hands away, but it was no use. I was squealing and kicking like there was no tomorrow and Zack didn't show any signs of stopping. I heard footsteps coming down the stairs, then saw dad stood over me.
"You two are fucking 17 years old, act it some day please!"
Zack and I looked at each other; we grinned.
"MY FRIENDS SAY I SHOULD ACT MY AGE. WHAT'S MY AGE AGAIN? WHAT'S MY AGE AGAIN?" we sang loudly.
"I give up." groaned dad. "I really fucking give up."
