     chapter seven, my favorite is eleven

      I went home and sat on the porch for a bit. Lily doesn't know I didn't go into work, so I have to think of a reasonable excuse to be home this early. I sat on the porch and stared out. I saw a woman walking her dog and some boys running to pet it. I smiled as I watched this unfold.

     This town brings out the best in people I think. Over the course of my time spent here nothing bad has happened. Well.. except for James. Yes, I am the one who invited him to say. Thing is.. I didn't expect him to be here this long. I mean I thought this would be like a four night thing. On top of that, Lily REALLY likes him.

After a while I decided that nothing would happen if I went in. I'm just being over dramatic. I checked the time and realized that I'd been out her for about thirty minutes. Sighing, I got up. Mariel and Chai ran by, but I didn't question it.
 
     They got in whoever's car that is (I can't think of it) and drove off. I laughed to myself and realized that the world is a lot less dim than I though it to be. I smiled and opened the door. I heard talking upstairs and realized that it was probably lily. She might of been recording a video, so I don't bother her. I went into the kitchen and started looking around for something to eat while I waited. It was about ten minutes before I realized that  there is no food in the house. In the end I decided that I would just go see what Lily was up to. 

       I slowly walked up the stairs and into the office. I didn't see her and was instantly alarmed. I checked our room to see if she was doing an outfit video in there. She wasn't in there either and i begun to get extremely worried. I decided that the last option was for her to be in.. she wouldn't. Was she with James? I really hope that they're just doing a bit for her vlog. I walked in and saw her.. I can't. I walked into the room to see her leaning up to kiss him. James pushed her away, but I don't know if they saw me. I stumbled back and ran out of the house. I don't know what is happening.

      I walked down the street and into Skye's place. She was cleaning up, but I told her me and Oli needed to meet; it was urgent. She nodded as she continued to wipe off tables. I Don't want to think right now. I sent Oli a text and told him to meet me here, giving him the bare minimum of an explanation. I sat there and stared off into space. Skye brought me some pizza as i dazed off. I can't eat anymore, I can hardly breathe. 

     Skye kept an eye on me through out the whole ordeal, Telling me that eating would make it better. Eventually I managed half a slice, and then I just ate the whole thing; losing myself for a bit before Oli came. Him and Alex arrived after a bit and I was so thankful. I Explained exactly everything and they listened. Alex didn't even care about the fight, I think she only cared about making things right in that moment. 

     A wave of reassurance came over me to see her instantly forgive me. She comforted me and told me it would be okay, telling some terrible jokes to lighten the mood. Eventually they just said that they would deal with her, and invited me to stay with them. I took the offer graciously, saying I would get my things while Lily went out for her weekly coffee with Lauren.

       They drove me to their place after Skye and Alex had the most wretched pun war I have ever seen. I mean.. they didn't even make sense. Oli and I cheered them on though, seeing as it was the best thing to happen since the start of this whole fight. It was nice and peaceful. Eventually we all went home (me going with Alex and Oli) And ended the night. It was poetic in it's own way, and my heart felt far less heavy than it had been in a long time.
