Lila's POV:

I finally managed to walk to my car. I searched my pockets for the keys. Ughh I left them in my locker. I don't really want to go back in there. I sighed and turned back around. I carefully walked to my locker making sure not to run into any teachers. I safely made my way to my locker. I grabbed my bag and made sure i had my keys this time.

I slowly started walking back. I saw a figure on the other side of the hallway.

I instantly recognized it and started running towards it dropping my bag. I jumped into his arms. And cried.

We stayed like that for a couple of minutes taking everything in.

It felt so real.

"I missed you so much. I need you here with me. Why would you ever leave me. Please stay... And stay forever..?" i cried and hugged him even tighter.

"Lila. You know i can't do that. You're stronger than you think you are" he replied.

I sobbed even harder.

"Dad please don't leave me again. I need you in my life. We miss you so much. I want to be able to talk to you everyday. And look up at the stars and you being by my side".

He gently tucked a piece of my hair behind my hair. And just stared at me.

"I love you and mum and your sisters. You tell them i love them with all my heart. Take good care of them" he smiled.

"I will dad. But my life is so messed up" i said looking at my feet.

"You always have me. Just look up at the sky to find me. Like i taught you when you were little. Lila i know you will find the right path and be wise." he said.

"What's that supposed to mean dad?" i asked puzzled.

I looked up from my feet to find him nowhere in sight.

"Dad? Were are you?!" i walked around searching for my beloved dad.

"Please don't leave me again!" i sobbed on my knees with my head in my hands.

"Lila! Lila are you ok?!" i heard footsteps running towards me.

"No im not" i cried.

"Everything will be ok" he comforted me.

"Josh i-i can't live without him" i buried my face into his shoulder.

It took me a moment. Then reality hit me.

I backed away from his embrace.

I mentally facepalmed myself.

"Im sorry Josh" i sniffed.

I'm such a dork.

"Lila we can still be friends regardless of everything that has happened" he kindly said cleaning my tears.

"I could use a friend" i said hugging him tightly.

"Do you want me to drive you home?" he offered.

"No thanks. Im fine. And thanks. It really means a lot." i picked up my bag and made my way towards the exit.

I slowly walked back to my car. This time with my keys. I threw my stuff in the backseat. I reached for the door but saw something in the distance.

It was Zayn.

But he was with her.

Miranda.

I slightly smiled.
