•authors note•

This has spoilers from "the book thief" and "the hobbit" hope you don't mind!

After all the excitement I desided to relax. I was reading the book thief. A book about a German girl living her everyday life in Germany durning World War II. I was almost done.

"The boy slept. His candlelit hair ignited the bed, and I picked both him and Bettina up with their souls still in the blanket. If nothing else, they died fast and they were warm. The boy from the plane, I thought. The one with the teddy bear. Where was Rudy's comfort? Where was someone to alleviate this robbery of his life? Who was there to soothe him as life's rug was snatched from under his sleeping feet?" It was then I started to sob quietly tears flowing freely. I turned the pages and read on the words blurring slightly. When I finished the book the boys looked at me strangely. I wiped my eyes as Donnie walked up to me. "You all right lily?" He asked sitting beside me. "Yea." I said thickly. "Are you sure?" Donnie said placing a hand on my shoulder. "You would have to read it to understand. But yea I'm fine." I said leaning into Donnie. "Want to watch a movie?" Leo asked walking in. My sister and Mikey perked up from their games. "Movie?" Leala and Mikey said together. "What are you all going on about in here?" Raph said walking in from his room. "Movies!" Leala said. "Let's watch the hobbit!" I said sitting up. "Sure thing sis!" Leala said placing the movie in. I ran into my room quickly and grabbed my blanket. I ran back and jumped onto the couch. I placed myself between Donnie and Leo. Mikey and leala were laying on the floor. Raphael was sitting in one of the chairs shaking his head at my choose of movie. When the movie started I copied some of the lines. When the dwarfs started to sing and I hummed along. I then heard a Voice sing along with the dwarfs. "Far over the Misty Mountains rise

Leave us standing upon the height

What was before we see once more

Is our kingdom a distant light

Fiery mountain beneath the moon

The words unspoken, we'll be there soon

For home a song that echoes on

And all who find us will know the tune

Some folk we never forget

Some kind we never forgive

Haven't seen the back of us yet

We'll fight as long as we live

All eyes on the hidden door

To the Lonely Mountain born

We'll ride in the gathering storm

Until we get our long forgotten gold

We lay under the Misty Mountains cold

In slumbers deep, and dreams of gold

We must awake, our lives to make

And in the darkness a torch we hold

From long ago when lanterns burned

Until this day our hearts have yearned

Her fate unknown, the Arkenstone

What was stolen must be returned

We must awake and make the day

To find a song for heart and soul

Some folk we never forget

Some kind we never forgive

Haven't seen the end of it yet

We'll fight as long as we live

All eyes on the hidden door

To the Lonely Mountain born

We'll ride in the gathering storm

Till we get our long forgotten gold

Far away from Misty Mountains cold." I looked up and saw that Donnie was singing along. He saw me looking he blushed and looked away. I giggled and went back to the movie. Soon I was curled up into Donnie's side tucked under my blanket. I felt my eyes start to close then I was out.

*Donnie's pov*

*before the movie*

I was in my lab listening to music as I fiddled with an invention. I sang along with the song. " I was thinking 'bout her, thinking 'bout me

Thinking 'bout us, what we gon' be

Open my eyes, yeah, it was only just a dream

So I travelled back down that road

Will she come back? No one knows

I realize, yeah, it was only just a dream

When I be ridin', man, I swear I see her face at every turn

Tryna get my Usher over I can't let it burn

And I just hopes she know that she the only one I yearn for

More and more I miss her. When will I learn?

Didn't give her all my love, I guess now I got my payback

Now I'm in the club thinking all about my baby

Hey, she was so easy to love

But wait, I guess that love wasn't enough

I'm going through it every time that I'm alone

And now I'm missing, wishing she'd pick up the phone

But she made the decision that she wanted to move on

Cause I was wrong

I was thinking 'bout her, thinking 'bout me

Thinking 'bout us, what we gon' be

Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream

So I travelled back, down that road

Will she come back, no one knows

I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream

If you ever loved somebody put your hands up

If you ever loved somebody put your hands up

And now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything

Said if you ever loved somebody put your hands up

If you ever loved somebody put your hands up

Now they're gone and you're wishing you could give them everything

[2x]

I was thinking 'bout her, thinking 'bout me

Thinking 'bout us, what we gon' be

Open my eyes yeah, it was only Just A Dream

So I travelled back, down that road

Will she come back, no one knows

I realize yeah, it was only Just A Dream" I sighed and turned off the music. I looked at my picture of April. "Don't worry I'll fix your father." I said softly. I looked out and saw lily reading. I then noticed she was crying a bit. I walked over to her. "You all right lily?" I asked. "Yea." Lily said. "You sure?" I said placing a hand on her shoulder. "You would have to read it to understand. But yea I'm fine." She said. Then Leo suggested a movie. Lily instantly perked up when my brothers let her watch the hobbit. I heard her humming with the dwarfs so I sang along. I blushed when I noticed lily looking up at me. She giggled and went back to the movie. I then felt her curl into my side. I looked down and saw her eyes flutter shut. I smiled and draped my arm around her pulling her close. About half way through the movie my eyes started to close. I heard lily mumble something and sigh softly. I finally gave in to sleep slipping into my dreams
