She's Coming Home

Chapter 3

Chapter 3 ~

Lily's POV:

I grumble as I scan through the channels on the tv, Chloe leaving me alone to my own thoughts since she had gone to bed. There wasn't anything on tv for some odd reason. This made me think of Tom; remembering all the times of that evil glare, that icy smile that was always aimed towards me.

I gave up going through the channels, shutting the tv down before picking up my cup of tea, walking into the kitchen to put it into the sink. I empty the remains of it down the drain, putting it into the dish washer before I turn to head upstairs.

I stop as I see the reunion envelope that still sits on the dining room table.

He won't be there Lily, I highly doubt it. He doesn't even know I'm back home.

That's what I kept repeating to myself.

Tom's POV:

I grumble into my bed sheets as I hear someone call my name, my hands searching for an extra pillow to bury over my face.

"Tom." I hear it again, my hands finally finding a pillow.

I let out another grunt as I feel it get snatched away from my hands, "Tom!"

"What's wrong with you ?" I grunt looking up to see my brother Harry glaring down at me.

"It's nearly noon." He tells me, throwing the pillow that he had snatched from me back to the front of my bed.

"And ?" I ask him, raising my eyebrows.

"And ... you need to get up." He tells me.

I sit up, running my hands over my face to clear my vision.

I soon get out of my bed and hear him sigh as I push past him, grabbing a pair of gray sweats from the end of my bed to slip them on over my boxers.

"I have to go run some errands that mum and dad left me. You can come along if you want. Our parents are both out." I hear him say, my back turned away from him before I hear my bedroom door shut.

I soon hear rummaging around from the downstairs kitchen, Harry is probably making something to eat before he heads out.

I let out a grunt before I slip off the pair off my sweats that I had just put on, slipping on a pair of jeans instead. Doing errands is better than sitting home alone with my stressed thoughts right ?

I drag myself downstairs after getting dressed, watching Harry walking out of the kitchen with a bowl in his hands as he hurriedly tries to eat.

"Are you coming with me ?" He asks.

"Yeah, I'll go." I murmur, shoving my hands into my pockets.

"Why don't you eat something and then we'll go ?" He suggests.

"I'm not hungry." I tell him.

He sighs before turning away from me, setting his bowl into the kitchen sink.

"Lets go."

When we get back home with grocery bags hanging from my wrists. I set them on the kitchen counter.

"I'm going to get the mail. I'll be right back." I hear Harry say as he sets his few bags down with the ones I had brought in.

I don't answer, not really caring as I start to empty the contents we had brought from the plastic bags.

"Hey Tom." I hear Harry say from behind me, making me turn to face him.

I look at his face before I realize what he is holding, an envelope being placed into my hand.

'Highschool Reunion'

I shake my head before shoving it back to my brother.

"I'm not going to go." I say sharply, turning back to my bags.

"But you'll get to see your old fr-"

"Harry stop! If I say I'm not going, I'm not going to go!" I interrupt him.

He gives me an icy glare before letting the now wrinkled envelope that I had crinkled in my hand fall to the floor in front of my feet.

I let out a guilty sigh when I suddenly imagine Harry's eyes starting to sparkle with tears. His eyes instantly turned into a familiar pair of hazel orbs that I haven't thought of in a while. I always start seeing her eyes when I make someone angry or sad. I just don't know why. I quickly shake my head, to make the vision disappear.

"You've changed so much the past two years. What's wrong with you ?" Harry says before he stomps off.

I squeeze my eyes shut as tight as I possible, trying to get the haunting hazel pair of teary eyes from my mind.

Lily's eyes.

I bend down, picking up the envelope. I tentatively rip it open, pulling out the paper.

It's Saturday at 12:00.

I guess it would be nice to see my old friends.

My mind went back to Lily. She may be there, but I doubt it. She hated to go to party's and get togethers. The last time I saw her was in the last year of high school. I heard she moved to the states to continue her classes in college.

I haven't thought about her for a couple of months.

I knew I was terrible to her.

I regret it.

~~~ FLASHBACK ~~~

"That's the new girl." My friend Erik speaks up at lunch, pointing across the school yard.

I take a bite of my sandwich before turning in the direction he had pointed. The brown haired girl was sitting alone before a blonde walked up to her, scooting into the bench to sit beside her. I knew her name was Chloe.

"She transferred here this year." He tells me.

"What's her name ?" I ask, breaking my gaze to look back to my friend.

"I think Lily." He shrugs.

"She's pretty." I mumble, shifting in my seat.

"Her ?" He asks.

Girls are never good enough for him, he had very high standards.

"You mean the blonde one right ?" He laughs humorously at me.

I shake my head no, "Then the other one right ?" He laughs harder than before.

I nod my head slowly, "I dare you to go tell her." Erik tells me.

"No way!" I shout.

"What, because your a woose ?" He asks.

I roll my eyes, "I'm not telling her I think she's pretty. It might make her think I like her or something. And that will make people think differently of me if we start to go out or something like that." I scoff, not wanting Erik to think I'm a loser. It was hard enough to become friends with him in the first place.

"Then tell her the opposite of that," He urges me, "Or else that means your a woose since you can't talk to a girl." He tells me.

"Fine." I say through gritted teeth, standing up from my table.

That's when the bullying began.
