The Girl Next Door

Chapter 16: Prom (Part 2)

"Cry When YOU Need To."

"Laugh ALOT More Than You Cry." Angela

Tyler Posey as Jeremy (This is my second time changing an actor for Jeremy. But, this time. I'm pretty sure I like Tyler Posey to be Jeremy. I feel that it works.)

Nina Dobrev as Lillian

Victoria Justice as Samantha (Sam)

Chace Crawford as Nathan

Zach Porter as Blake

Dylan O'Brien as Ryan (I've changed it because I find that Dylan O'Brien can play Ryan better.)

Ashley Benson as Victoria. (Guys, I'm really very sorry for the confusion. I've just read over some chapters nad have seen that I mixed up the name a little bit. Blake's sisters' name is Victoria not Vanessa.)

^ I think I'm pretty happy with this cast now. I've been so frustrated so I'm finally going to say that this is the cast I'm keeping. So thank you for the suggestions but my mind is settled on this.

J E R E M Y (Jeremy's P.O.V.)

What the hell?

I got up from my knees and looked in the direction Lillian had ran away to.

"Jeremy, go after her!" I heard Sam whisper to me.

I looked around to see everyone looking completely shocked. Well, I was too. I was never rejected.

I ran towards the door and saw Lillian still running out of the parking lot.

"Lillian. Wait!" I yelled out. But she didn't stop.

I ran faster and soon caught up with Lillian. I grabbed onto her arm and pulled her to a stop. She struggled against my grip but I didn't loosen up one bit.

"Lillian. Turn around." I whispered, softly to her.

She slowly turned around and my mood dropped completely.

Her cheeks were a blotchy red, eyes puffy, and mascara was running down her cheeks.

"Baby, what's wrong?" I whispered softly to her. I took my thumb and gently wiped the tears that were pouring constantly down.

"Lillian, tell me."

"I can't date you!" She blurted out. Tears were streaming down her face and my arms dropped to my sides.

I narrowed my eyes.

"Why is that?" I hissed.

"You just can't!" She yelled. She turned around to walk away but I grabbed onto her arm. I turned her back around and slammed her to my chest.

"Why the hell not?" I growled.

"Because I'm sick!" She whispered.

I looked down at her and said, "That's it. I can't date you because you're sick. You won't be sick in a week."

"Jeremy, you don't get it!" She yelled. She pulled out of my arms.

"Then explain it to me!" I yelled back.

She looked up at me and her eyes brimmed with tears.

"I have cancer." She whispered. My heart dropped to my stomach and I looked at her.
