One Last Look

05 - Intertwined

03:43 PM

Lily couldn't help but think how strange and somehow coincidental all that breaking-up action happened at the same day, with no one even sad of what happened. Jenna and Richard hardly cared.

Maybe it was because they knew they were gonna break up anyway, Even though she saw the headlines of them being all cuddly and touchy and clubbing all night. Thoughts stormed inside Lily's mind thinking maybe Jenna and Richard only did that to show that they were perfect for each other or just to cover their feelings for someone else whose already in a relationship...

Lily didn't wear anything special or something she'd wear on dates. Instead, a white one piece and her blonde hair untied which draped on her shoulder. Not too much makeup either, but just enough to cover the puffy eyes. She didn't take as much effort as she did preparing for the double date several days ago. It was perhaps she didn't feel as special anymore from losing Matt. Not because she lessened her affection for Richard though.

Lily finally arrived the park and looked around if Richard has come yet. And to her surprise, he hadn't showed up. So she sat on a nearby bench, legs crossed and waited while she looked through her phone.

A few fans approached Lily and asked for pictures and autographs. They would have a little chat and a few compliments of how she looked today. But besides that, it distracted Lily from thinking what's taking Richard so long.

Finally, Richard showed up from his car and walked towards the bench and gave Lily a 10 second hug.

"Oh my god! Richard!!!"
"Oh my gosh they look so cute together"
"Are you guys here to hang out?"
"*Screams hysterically* I have to snap this"

All these voices came from the fans that still stood there, took photos in awe.

Richard and Lily, smiling, walked together towards the hill where it's known to capture the best of the sunset. But in the meantime, they had a little conversation.

"So," said Lily breaking the silence.

"I hope you're doing well,"

"Oh, yes. And you too, you know. It's perfect timing we could hang out like this again."

"Um yeah."

This went on a while and the pair joked around, and laughed at things. It was awkward at first, but they got used to it anyway. They reached it's destination, and saw the sun setting. Took pictures and laughed again. The both of them had never felt this relaxed in their life.

They hugged, more tightly and amorously this time.

It was getting dark but they were still together, walking around the area, hands intertwined.

"I'm getting hungry," said Lily then smirked.

"Wanna get some Mexican?" suggested Richard funnily.

It was a fancy restaurant and it's known for it's spicy foods. And of course, Richard's favourite.

They had dinner and Lily was 'eating like a pig' as usual. Richard finds it cute when she eats that way therefore he describes it as such.

09:32 PM

After dinner, the pair decided to take a little walk again out to the streets.

"My brother will be picking me up today, so... mind if you accompany me to the road?"
questioned Lily.

"Sure."

Whilst walking, Richard took off his coat and puts it only Lily like he always does. Oh how she loved it when he does that.

Before she knew it, Lily's ride came and it was time to go.

"I've had the best time, thank you so much for it."

"Me too. Hope you sleep well," said Richard while he opens the door and gestures Lily to go in.

They both sort of kissed on the cheek shyly as she goes in.

Oh my gosh. AHH!

The car drove off and Lily went home. She was still wearing Richard's coat, and never was she getting out of it. Lily clumsily went onto her bed and smelt the scent of Richard from the coat, then slowly falling asleep.
