So there's been a lot on my mind recently with moving back to England and the wedding and school and getting back with Jojo. I barely talk to anyone anymore, I just sit up in my room now talking to my Mum (my real mum) because she's the only one who can't really take Jacob's side in this whole arguing. Chres has been insisting that we should go places together not as a date but now he's decided he wants to be like a big brother to me, which I don't mind but I don't need a new big brother coming in when I'm barely talking to my real one. So just because of all this stress I decided to go for a run. (outfit in external link)

So I was 10 minutes into my run when I heard someone calling my name, it was Chres and he was fast catching up with me. I just want to be left alone today.

Chres: Hey lil' sis.

Lily: Oh hey.

Chres: Why haven't you been answering my texts are you mad at me or soething?

Lily: No I had a ton of homework so I turned it off.

Lies, I turned it off to shut everyone out.

Chres: Lily come on, it's me. You can tell me if you feel weird talking to me after us dating and all.

Lily: No Chres that really isn't it.

Chres: Lily come on.

Lily: Chres it really isn't that, I'm happy you and Lele are back together but I find it hard to balance school, the wedding and Jojo.

Chres: Ok.. I'll let you get back to your run but I really don't approve of that outfit.

I give a fake laugh and continue running.

A few minutes later I find myself running through the park and I one point I bump into someone.


???: Hey watch where you're going!

Lily: I'm sorry- Jacob?

Jacob: Oh hey.

I try to start running again

Jacob: Wait no don't go. Sit for a while, let's talk.

He pointed to a bench and I sit down with him.

Jacob: Even though we live together, it feels like I haven't seen you in ages.

Lily: I know.

Jacob: I mean, you eat in your room, you leave for school early and when you go out it's through the back door. I feel so bad, I miss you.

Lily: I miss you too.

Jacob: Then why don't you talk to me anymore?

I go silent.

Jacob: Are you scared?

I nod

Jacob: Of what? Me.

I nod again

Jacob: That whole leaving you out in the rain thing, I only did it because I had a bad day, I wasn't really mad at you. Actually I'm happy you two are back together. Congratulations by the way.

Lily: Thanks.

Jacob: Look Imma let you get back to your run, but we'll talk later.

I run off again.

I have a new fashion consultant who will start to make outfits for my book. (Mainly Lily's)
