Lilly's Background

Lilly was born in England alongside her brothers Jake and Brodie. Lilly was really close with her brothers they protected her, and included her in everything. Lilly's dad was a captain in the British Army and was a very well respected man. Her mum was a nurse at the local hospital and was one of the happiest people ever. Everytime their dad would go on tour it was so hard for Lilly as they were inseparable, they would get up mischief together, he would teacher her how to fight, and they would watch the football together and scream at the tv when the ref did something they didn't like.

Lilly's mum Mel was best friends with Sharon Mccabe, they were like sisters. They grew up together in dublin as her mum moved their when she was young with her family. Due to this lilly and her brothers grew up with the 11 crazy kids and the one that never left Lils side was the one and only Katie Mccabe. They were joint at the hip, everytime they were together they would get up to no good, go play football, each too many lollies to the point they fell asleep from a sugar choma.

But that didn't last for long.

At just 7 years old, Lilly's dad passed away on tour from a bombing attack. When they received the news they were distraught. Lilly's happy self wasn't like it was, she had lost her best friend.

A year later lilly was now 8 her brother jake was 10 and Brodie was 15. they were now getting used to the fact that their dad wasn't with them in person anymore but in their hearts and watching over them. Brodie took on the role of being the male model around the house especially when Mel wasn't her joyful self and doing everything she used to. She too was getting better, smiling and laughing more. A few months later Mel met Rhett, they became close and started seeing each other. The kids were not happy as it was too soon and just didn't like the type of guy he was.

Few months later they got engaged and Rhett had moved in.

3 months after they got married.

2 months after everything had settled they had all moved to Ireland as Mel had gotten a job offer. Mel had announced to the 3 kids that she and Rhett had bought a house next tot he Mccabe house and Lilly was so excited she was next to her best friend.

A few weeks later after moving in, lilly has noticed rhett being way too touchy with her, walking in while she was getting dressed, and doing inappropriate things. As time went on he got more physical with everyone was very abusive and manipulative specially with Mel. As that time went on he also go way to sexually physical with lilly, he started to touch her inappropriately even forcing her to shower with him. She didn't like it at all but if she said anything he would hurt her family and she didn't want that. few weeks late rhe made his first sexual move and forced her to sleep with him. He raped her 3 times a week for his joy. She was just 9 years old.

this went on for 2 years and Lilly was now 11 turning 12. It was her birthday and she was super excited. She was in the backyard kicking the ball with katie and their siblings just having fun. To this day Lilly still hasn't told anyone. As they were playing she was Rhett and some guy walk in who was looking really creepy. They walked over and told her they have a present for her. She got really quiet and distant from that point on and Katie noticed.

A few hours later Lilly went to her room to grab something and their was Rhett and his friend sitting on her bed having a smoke. ( i physically can't write rape especially for children so use your imagination if you want or skip) During the abuse her door flung open and she heard yelling there was Gary, Sharon, Mel, her brothers and katie. The boys got rhett and his friends off her and Sharon and Katie covered Lilly up and brought her to the car to take her to the hospital. Mel couldn't move she was too shocked.

skip 2 years lilly and katie were now 14 and rhett was in jail.

Skip another 2 years they were now 16. Katie was getting into her football more playing many games while Lilly was getting into some trouble with weed and alcohol. Her brother were off in england training to be in the army.

One night lilly and her mum were sitting in the living room watching a movie when there was a knock on the door. Mel went to answer it and saw two army captains who were actually close friends with the family. They stood there sad and delivered the news that Jake and Brodie were both in a car accident, and didn't make it. Lilly made in time to catching her mum when she screamed and cried in her arms for her sons. A few hours later Lilly sat in her brother's shared room and cried for hours, she woke up a few later to see Katie next to her sleeping. They spoke and cuddled for a little while before Katie got her up to go eat and check on her mum. They walked in on her crying in Sharon's arms with a few bottles of alcohol next to her.

6 weeks later they had the funeral and Lilly was working, doing school, and training to get into the military. Lilly had cut down on the alcohol and stopped smoking weed and just doing the occasional smokes. Her mum was extremely depressed hardly came out of her room and spoke to anyone, Sharon was worried about her as she hasn't spoken a word since the funeral. Lilly came home from work one and went to bring in dinner to her mum but when she got no answer on the door she decided to just open and saw something no child should see.

Her mum was on the floor with pill packets around her and blue.

Sharon and Gary took Lilly in full time while she trained for the military and finished school. Lilly fell quiet and had her walls closed around everyone beside Katie and Sharon, she didn't have many friends as she kept to herself and just didn't want to he drama to be honest.

By the time the girls were 18 Lilly got into the british army and had to move back home. Katie was playing football and getting scouted for teams. Few months into being in the army Lilly had been on 6 tours going to Iraq, and she had seen things that were so horrible to witness but made her want to keep fighting to protect people. She had seen bombing, murders, rape, tortures everything even got tortured herself along with 3 other soldiers but together they got out and did the rest of their job.

When the girls turned 19 their careers has involved, Katie signed with Arsenal women's team and was moving to St Albans in england to live with Lilly and had even started dating Ruesha Littlejohn. Lilly was achieving more in the army saving lives everyday and just enjoying the time she has watching katie play football and hang with her best friend.

One night katie was showing photos of her and her new teammates to Lilly and telling her about how training went but when she scrolled onto another photo and Lilly's eyes went straight to the blonde with stunning ocean eyes and a gorgeous smile that would make everyone melt.

She never thought that blonde would actually be the love of her life...
