Tony was looking outside to see where Denny and Lilly were, seeing that they had pulled up, he announces to everyone in the house "They are here!"
Tonight was the big surprise party for Lilly. He just had a few people over, he didn't want to over crowd her.
Looking out the window he see's them walking up to the door.
"Shhh! Here they come!" Tony whispers loudly.
Going to the door, when they knocked on the door he opens it with a big smile and say's "Hey guys!" Stepping out of the way so they can come in, he see's Lilly's eyes get big.
"What is this?" She stammers. Looking around the house, she see's some people she hasn't seen, and some she has.
"This is your welcome home party! I know it's a few day's late, but we wanted to welcome you home Lilly Girl!" Tony tells her.
Worried that she was going to be scared, Denny puts his arm around her to comfort her.
Lilly walks in a little farther, and stops.
Turning to Tony who was on her right side she say's "Who.. Who is that?" She asks pointing with her eyes.
"Him? In the red Tony shirt? That's just Jerry. He's harmless! He works for me. Let me introduce you to everyone."
Tony takes her hand, and walks her over to where Jerry is standing, "Jerry, I would like you to meet Lilly. Lilly this is Jerry." Shaking his hand, she gives him a small smile, but stays close to Tony. Moving on to the next person, he say's "This is Cam, he also works for me." Pointing to someone else he say's "This is Troy, then this is Aaron, who was at the hospital when you were there. Remember him?"
Nodding her head yes, she smiles at him. "Thank you for coming and visiting me while I was at the Hospital."
"Your Welcome! How are you feeling?" Aaron asks her.
"I'm feeling better every day!"
"Good! Glad to hear it! You need to be ready for Daytona!" Aaron tells her with a big smile.
"I'm ready!" Lilly tells him.
Tony pulls her along to meet everyone else, Ryan and Krissie and Baby B, and Kasey and some other fella's from the shop where there to welcome her home.
Looking around the room, Lilly was touched that so many people wanted to be there to welcome her home!
Looking up to Tony she say's "Thank you for this party! But you shouldn't have!"
Tony looked back at her, and said "We wanted to. Dennykins over there came up with the idea.."
Lilly turned around and looked at Denny and gave him a surprised look. When he walked over to her he said "What? I told you I was going to give you a surprise party!" Denny walks away from her and comes back with a box, stopping in front of her he opens the box.
Lilly peered inside and looked back up to Denny and said "You remembered!" Taking a doughnut out of the box she takes a bite and say's with a mouthful "No one else can have those.. Those are mine.."
When Denny started to laugh he said "This is your box. I got another one for everyone else!"
Lilly looked at him with big eyes. Giving him a smile she turns to walk from him, and go visit with her new friends.
--------
Lilly was standing at the front door, waving goodbye to her friends. The party had been fun, but she was starting to get sleepy.
