A few weeks later and the school forgot about the whole thing. All except for Richard and Lily. Lily had been avoiding him focusing on her homework and books, as she normally would do. Richard couldn't get her out of his mind. He ditched his 'friends' and focused more on football and making things right with Lily.
Everyday he would try and apologize to her but she just pretended that he did not exist. Lily definitely stood her ground, but even she was crumbling. Seeing the remorse and guilt in his eyes and hearing his apologies was making her wall weaken.
Maybe she should give him a chance. After all he was the first guy to actually like her. She stood at her locker thinking about it when he walked up.
"Richard," she started, but he interrupted her.
"Lily, please her me out. Just listen to what I have to say and then you don't have to worry about me talking to you ever again."
Richard had bags under his eyes and his hair was all over the place. "I'm sorry, I really am. I can't remember how many times I had said it, but I truly am sorry. I know that I probably shouldn't even be asking this, but please give me a chance. I know what I did was completely wrong."
But if you give me another chance Lily, I promise you I will never, I mean never, hurt you like I did. It was stupid and low and mean. If you please just give me a chance I promise you won't regret it." His eyes were filled with a hopeful look begging her to forgive him.
Lily smiled gently and nodded. Richard's smile grew wider and he stood up. He hesitantly reached his hand down to grab her hand and Lily, noticing his nervous act, reached for his.
"Thank you Lily so much. I promise I won't let you down." He hugged her tightly grateful she gave him another chance, and determined not to throw away this second chance.
