Lily's P.O.V.

I put my maths homework away, looked at my phone  and saw that I had a message from Rebecca.

Rebecca- hey Lily x

Me- Hi can't talk now sorry, text you when I can x

Rebecca- okay honey talk later x

'Mum its time to go!' I shouted over my music. I grabbed my bag, pulled out my shoes and put on my coat. I hopped down the hallway putting my shoes on at the same time.

'Come on' I said.

'Get in the car Lily ill be on my way'

I walked out the door and got in the car looking behind the I saw my mum closing the door.

'Lets go' she sighed.

'Whats wrong?' I asked holding her hand.

'Nothing for you to worry about' she gave me a smile. I nodded my head.

The drive took about 15 minutes and there was not talking on the way. As soon as she pulled up I hugged her and jumped out the car.

'I'll walk home, I gotta get some fresh air' I told my mum.

She said okay then drove off.

'okay' I whisperd to myself, 'its all going to be fine, ill just talk to some people' I said pulling open the door. I looked around and saw a door with colour full images on and decided to open it. Wow I thought to myself, there were people everywhere and a pool table right in the middle of the room with other tables dotted and a table full of food. I stood there for a good 10 minutes until a woman with curly ginger hair pulled up into a poney tail saw my standing there.

'Hi, Lily. I'm Charlotte' her voice sounded so calm mas warming. I tried to speak back but I was too nervous so I just grinned at her.

'Shelbie!' Charlotte shouted and a girl with long black hair walked over with a warm happy smile.

'Hey I'm Shelbie' she stuck out her hand.

'Lily' I smiled shaking her hand. She kept hold of my hand and dragged me over to a group of about 6 people sat around a table.

'hey this is Lily'

'Hi' I whispered. There were 3 guy's and 4 girls including Shelbie. 1 of the guy's are called Harry and has jet black hair falling down infront of his eyes and another had Brown floppy hair cropped I think his name is Mark. Another girl called Holly had blue eyes which looked so pretty and she had a scarf wrapped around her head. I decided to leave it at that for now and would get to know everyone else next time I came.

'So Lily when do you start chemo?' Harry asked turning to look at me, I suddenly felt nervous with everyone looking at me around the table.

'Erm Tuesday, four days,' I smile at him.

'You look a little worried Lily' he stated.

'Yeah I guess I am' I gave a nervous chuckle.

'Dont be, we all know how you feel but after the first time it's nothing' Shelbie said grabbing my hand.

'Thanks' I whispered.

'So? Who's up for a game of darts?' the boy I didn't know asked.

'Yes, come on guy's!' Holly nearly shouted. She grabbed my hand pulling me over to the dates board.

'Im no good at darts though' I said but she put the darts in my hand expecting me to throw them.

'Come on, it's not that hard' she sighed.

I lifted my arm and threw it missing the board completely. 'uh oh' I said biting my lip. Where as the others just burst in to laughter.

'Wow, when you said you were bad I didn't expect you to be that bad' said the boy who's name I didn't know.

'Chris don't be mean' a girl said to him. Chris thats his name, I thought it was.

'Here' Chris said grabbing my hand in his and helped me aim for the board. I didn't get a bullseye but at least I got on the board.

'Thanks Chris' I said smiling.

'No problem' he said stepping back. His perfectly Brown hair fell in to place as his eyes looked away from me. His shirt tight agains his body and his jeans falling loosely around his waist. I couldn't look away. Why couldn't I look away?

'Lily?' Harry's hand was waving in front of my face.

'Yeah?' I shook my head averting my eyes from Chris.

'You okay? You looked a little spaced out there?' he laughed.

'Yeah sorry, you want something?' I asked, all nervous by the way they all felt comfortable around me even thought iv just met them.

'Just asked how your doing with everything?' he gave me a warm smile.

'Well, I only found out the other week so I'm still getting to grips with the idea' I whispered. He nodded his head understanding how I was feeling and rubbed my arm.

'Its time for us all to go now, they are shutting in 10 minutes.' Shelbie said.

'Bye, see you next time?' I asked.

'Sure, looking forward to it.' Shelbie grinned.

'Where do u live?' Harry asked.

'Down near the school, about 30 minutes walk.' I told them. 'Why?' o asked a little worried.

'Because Chris, Mark and Holly live down near you too' Harry said 'Dont look like I'm stalking you' he laughed.

'Ohh okay, well I'll probably not see them I don't get out much plus I'm walking home.' I told him.

'Chris walks home, walk with him' holly told me.

'I don't think he wants to walk with me' I said looking a Chris.

'i don't mind' he spoke for the first time since we played darts.

'cool' I smiled.

*-*-*-*

We walked for what felt like days until he spoke which made me jump.

'Holy crap' I said my voice breaking. He just looked at me 'What?' he asked.

'You scared me' I told him as a smile was tugging on his lips.

'Sorry, just wanted to start a conversation instead of walking in slince.'

'Okay, about what?' I asked.

'Anything'

'Well that doesn't help, but this is me anyway' I said pointing to my house.

'Okay' he smiled 'I guess ill see you around'

'Yeah I'd like that' I smiled back.

sorry for the long wait iv just been soooo busy. I'd really like to know what you think of this.
