Look Up to the Stars (Captain Swan)

Chapter 7

So as some of you guessed, the girl is Lily :p
I just wanted to make something clear. In the story, the boyfriend thing and stealing that happened with Lily did not happen in the fanfic. There's only the first time they meet, crash into a house...
Enjoy xx

"Lily?" Emma asked as she got closer to her ex friend. The blonde wondered what she was doing there.

"Hey." Lily simply answered.

"What are you doing here?"

"I came to get you." Lily said, like it was obvious, but she got a confused look in response. "I've got money for bus tickets and know a great place where we could-"

"There's not "we", I'm staying here. Lily, you lied to me! Do you think I would want to go with you?" Emma snapped.

"You said we would be friends forever." the dark-haired girl replied, looking at her brith mark and remembering about Emma's fake, before she erased it.

"Yeah, well, you should've thought about it before you betrayed me." Emma defended.

"We need to move past this. Look, you could come with me, we would have so much fun, we'd be free-"

"Don't you understand that I don't want to? I want to stay here. I finally found a good family that I like. I have foster parents that love me!" Emma said.

"Love you? Like all of your other foster parents that you ran away from before?" Lily said and Emma became furious.

"You. You don't know anything about it! You have people that care for you and shut them out. You don't know about the crappy life I had and don't understand how I'm happy now. I don't want to see you again!" Emma shouted angrily, on the verge of tears. She walked away from her house, drying her eyes with the back of hand and started walking in the opposite direction from where she was coming. She just needed a moment alone.

Killian was still sitting at a table in his backyard and started thinking that Emma was taking a lot of time to come back. He quickly got inside, to his room and looked through his window, to see if she was there, but the lights were off. He got back to the barbecue and waited again. Five, ten, fifteen minutes passed before he decided to go ask Rose and Oliver. Emma's foster father went to check in the house and came back worried. Emma wasn't there, which meant that maybe she ran away, knowing her history. They couldn't understand why she would.

Oliver and Rose got back to their house, followed by Killian.

"Maybe she is still in the neighbourhood, she doesn't know it well yet. We should look." Oliver suggested.

"I can go look." Killian said. "I'll just take my care and drive around while you two wait for any call or something."

"Yes. Thank you, Killian." Rose said and the teenager simply nodded. He got out of the house and ran to his car. Quickly, he was out driving in the streets of his neighbourhood that he knew like the back of his hand. He'd always lived here.

He drove around, even got to the beach, which wasn't far from where they lived. She wasn't anywhere, but he decided to go around a few more streets even if he'd already gone there. Night was falling, it was starting to be very cold outside and he was worried for her.

He finally stopped when he saw her at a phone cabin. Quickly, he got out of the car. He noticed that she didn't have anything with her, no bags. Maybe she didn't run away, then. He just wondered why she left like that.

As he approached, he heard: "Huh... I don't know-". She saw him coming towards her. "Killian is here... Okay... I'm sorry..."

She hanged up and turned to the worried teenager that was looking at her. He noticed how cold she seemed and that she had puffy red eyes, probably because she cried.

"Let's go to the car." Killian said and she followed him. She was so cold, she'd go anywhere to warm herself up.

They got into Killian's car and she brought her knees to her chest, hoping she'd be more warm, but it didn't reallt work. She was shivering constantly. Killian turned up the heat and looked in the backseat, where he knew he'd let his old vest that he passed on Emma's shoulders.

"T-Thank you..." she stuttered.

"What were you doing out there?" he asked.

"I... Just someone from long ago who came back and... I needed a moment alone so I started walking around and I got lost... I needed to ask money to someone to call Rose and Oliver... I'm sorry, I shouldn't-"

"It's okay." Killian said, putting a hand on her shoulder. She smiled at him.

"Thank you."

He smiled back, then started the car.
