Chapter 2: Stay!

Real World!
     Lilian woke up and looked around. She was in an apartment room. She sighed as she remembered what happened. Then Madison walked in with a tray of food and a smile. She put the tray on Lilian's bed. "You okay?" Madison asked. "I will be once I get home." Lillian replied. "Why do you want to go back to New York so badly?" Madison asked. "Because it's my home." Lillian replied. "This could be your home." Madison stated. "I've lived in a big place my entire life, I don't know if I can live in a small town. You seem nice and all, but you're also kind of crazy." Lillian explained. "That's rude, but I know you don't mean it. After all, you say what's ever on your mind and you're very brutally and hurtfully honest." Madison explained and Lillian looked at her confused. "How do you know that about me?" Lilian asked. "I told you, we're best friends." Madison replied and Lillian sighed. "This is too freaky." Lillian stated and then she stood up and Madison stood up too. "You should rest." Madison stated. "I don't need rest, I need to leave!" Lillian exclaimed.  "Right, you never admit you need help or when you're wrong." Madison stated. "Stop doing that!" Lillian exclaimed. Lillian ran out and Madison ran out and followed her.
     Then Kelly, Alan, Brenda, Charlotte, Michael, Darla, Tina, and Tommy walked over to them. "This is the new girl I told you guys about." Kelly stated and they nodded. "These are the friends you mentioned?" Lillian asked Madison and Madison nodded. "Sorry about her, she means well." Alan stated. "It's alright." Lillian reassured. "I'm Alan. This is Brenda, Charlotte, Michael, Darla, Tina, Tommy, and you've met Kelly." Alan introduced. "Nice to meet you. My name is Lillian." Lillian introduced. "Nice to meet you." Charlotte stated with a smile and Lillian sighed.

Flashback!
    Alistair Wonderland, ran over to his girlfriend, Bunny Blanc, and sat next to her by a tree. She giggled when she saw them and they kissed. "Where have you been?" Bunny asked. "Off annoying the queen." Alistair replied and Bunny laughed. "Are you going to annoy Lizzie like that when she becomes queen?" Bunny asked. "No, I'll continue annoying her mother, it's more fun like that." Alistair replied with a smirk and Bunny laughed. "You're something else." Bunny stated. "Is that a good thing or a bad thing?" Alistair asked. "Good. Defiantly good." Bunny replied. They leaned in and kissed again. Then Kitty Cheshire appeared on the tree above them, but they didn't noticed her. "Hey there." Kitty greeted and they both jumped as they looked up. "Kitty!" Alistair and Bunny exclaimed in unison as Kitty giggled. Kitty disappeared and reappeared next to them. "You need to stop that." Bunny stated. "Never." Kitty stated and they both laughed. Then the rest of the gang walked over to them and sat down next to them. "The gang's all here." Alistair stated and they all laughed. "He's an idiot." Tammy stated. "He's my idiot." Bunny stated and Tony rolled his eyes. "Shut up." Tony stated. "You shut up." Dina stated. "Whatever after." Lizzie stated and they all giggled again. They really are best friends and love hanging out together, in a group and in pairs.

     Alan walked into the Madness Bed and Breakfast. He looked over and saw Brenda sitting at a booth and eating by herself. He smiled to himself, he has always had a crush on her. He walked over to her and sat across from him. Brenda smiled at him too, she has always had a crush on him as well. "What's up?" Alan asked. "Just eating." Brenda replied and Alan laughed. "I can see that." Alan stated and Brenda laughed. "Right. How are you?" Brenda asked. "Good. You?" Alan asked. "Good." Brenda replied. They sat their in an awkward silence. Then Lilian walked in. "Lily!" Alan called and Lily looked at them confused. "You should sit with us." Brenda stated. "I don't know." Lily stated. "Please." Brenda stated and Lily sighed. "Fine." Lily agreed and she sat next to Brenda. Then Madison hopped over to them. Brenda and Alan laughed as Lily looked at her fun. "May I help you, my dear old friends?" Madison asked with a giggle. "Just coffee, please." Lillian replied and she nodded. "Right. So, you are staying?" Madison asked with anticipation. "Mads." Brenda and Alan stated in unison. "What?" Madison asked innocently. "No, it's fine." Lillian reassured and they nodded. "So?" Madison asked and Lillian sighed. "No, I just need my car fixed." Lillian replied and Madison sighed as she put her head down. "Fine." Madison agreed as she went to get Lily's coffee.
    Lillian was walking around Storybook, looking around. Then Lillian bumped into someone and fell. "Hey! Watch where you're going!" Lillian exclaimed as she rubbed her head. "You need to watch where you're going. You almost messed up my hair." The guy stated and Lillian rolled her eyes as she got up. She looked at the man and he had dirty blonde hair and holding a golden mirror with diamonds on it. "Some people are so rude and conceited." Lillian stated as she put her hands on her hips. "Yeah, and I.... Don't see any of those people around here." The guy stated. "Wow.... I'm going to leave now and ignore you. I hate people like you." Lillian stated. "Who? Handsome and amazing in every way possible?" The guy asked with a smile and Lillian rolled her eyes and scuffed. "Yeah, no. I don't think so, stupid guy." Lillian stated. "The name is Daniel." Daniel corrected as Lillian started walking away. "Whatever." Lillian stated as she left.

Flashback!
      Lizzie Hearts walked into her castle and looked around. "Mother!" Lizzie called, but there was no answer. "Mother!" Lizzie called again and red smoke appeared un front of her. There stood the queen of heart's. "Yes, my dear daughter?" Ms. Heart's asked. "Cut the crap, mother!" Lizzie exclaimed. "Whatever do you mean?" Ms. Hearts asked. "This stupid curse." Lizzie replied and Ms. Hearts sighed. "Oh, that." Ms. Hearts stated as she walked into another room and Lizzie followed. "Yeah, that. Why are you doing it?" Lizzie asked. "I have my reasons." Ms. Hearts replied. "Tell me! I deserve to know!" Lizzie exclaimed and Ms. Hearts sighed. "Daring." Ms. Hearts stated and Lizzie stepped back shocked. "Daring?" Lizzie asked. "Yes, and your friend. You not completely following my story, except the queen part." Ms. Hearts replied and Lizzie shook her head. "I can't believe you. You really don't care about me, do you?" Lizzie asked and Ms. Hearts shook her head. "Of course I love you, my dear daughter. I'm doing this for you." Ms. Hearts replied and Lizzie shook her head. "If you truly love me, you would let me be happy. I love Daring with all my heart and all I want is to be with him. I love my friends, their my family. I don't want to try and hurt them, even if I would fail. I don't want everyone to fear me, I want to be loved and respected like Snow White and Apple will be when she gets corinated this week." Lizzie explained. "No, you want your destiny." Ms. Hearts stated and Lizzie shook her head with tears in her eyes. "My destiny is my destiny, not yours. I need to follow my path, and my path is not the same as yours. That's fine. You need to accept it, almost everyone has accepted that you don't need to follow your destiny anymore." Lizzie explained. Lizzie glared at her mother and ran out.
