The Beginning (Raulson FanFic)[slowly editing]

Chapter 30 : No Ordinary Love

A/N: Oh my gosh, a long chapter.

I named the chapter from the song that inspired me to write this chapter, haha. It's No Ordinary Love by The Civil Wars, I really love love love the Civil Wars.

Man, I told someone that I'll be using the song Compass by Zella Day in this chapter, but I guess I'll reserve that for the upcoming chapters.

Anyway, Happy Reading Lovelieeess.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Last night was a nightmare that came true. Losing the person she loves most, Sarah.

She woke up the next morning unable to lift herself off from her bed. She felt weak and tired, both physically and emotionally, the moment she realized that she woke up to the reality where she actually let the love of her life go. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying her heart out the night before.

"Lily, are you awake?" Terrence called out from the living room. Lily sighed heavily as she mustered all of her strength to get out of bed, she never felt so weak in her entire life that even the simple procedure became a gigantic effort.

"Lily?" Terrence called out as she heard his footsteps coming towards her room. The door slowly creaked open and as Lily looked sideways and saw Terrence rushing towards her the moment she was about to fall when sudden dizziness overcame her, he immediately caught her in his arms and assisted her to sit on the edge of her bed.

He immediately noticed Lily's reddened face. He put his hand on her forehead and checked her temperature. "Lily, you're hot, I think you're sick," he said concernedly, looking at her feeling a little guilty of what he had done. "I'll just get you something to eat and some meds, I'll be right back, don't force yourself to get up okay? Just lay down."

Lily nodded weakly as she obliged, she lay down on her side and grabbed her phone from the nightstand. She saw 74 messages and 22 missed calls from Sarah, she mentally debated whether she would read it or not, but she opt to delete her messages without reading them.

She hated the fact that what she's going through right now brings back all of those painful memories that she had kept hidden, she hated that she gave herself fully and that person destroyed her heart once again, just like what he did to her. She loved him and he lied and during those times, she didn't listen to the person who loves her most that's why she paid the price of getting a deep cut in her heart at the end. She lost someone who's always there for her and she felt so ashamed that she fell into his lies, she became a homewrecker, a third party and what's worse is that she felt guilty that because of her, the person who genuinely loved her saved her from the guy she once loved with all of her heart. She couldn't forget that night, the night someone sacrificed his own life just to save her from that psychotic man he fell in love with.

But, Sarah was different. Every time she's with her, she felt like she's the most beautiful and most important woman in the world. She wanted to be with her, she felt and secured in her arms, but after what Terrence said, it opened old wounds and ripped her heart into pieces once again. She wanted to cry, but she couldn't. She was exhausted, she wanted to release her sadness but she'd already shed all of her tears last night.

Terrence came back with a bed tray which contains a bowl of steel cut oats, milk and a few slices of fruits. Lily forced herself to sit on the bed and gave him a weak smile.

"Thank you," Lily said as Bolton placed the tray over Lily's lap before climbing in her bed beside her. "Thank you really, I'm so sorry to bother you I bet you have other things to do."

"Nah, I'm fine, just like what I've said I'll always be here for you, Lily," He smiled at her as he picked up the bowl of oatmeal and scooped a spoonful of oats. He held spoon towards her. "Ahhh!" he says opening his mouth like he's feeding a kid.
