Matthew's P.O.V

"What?" Lillian questions as she looks up from her hands. I kneel down next to her. "Come with me, Lilly. We can start over in a new state, I'll enroll you in school and-"

"Great a new school where I'd have to make new friends. What about Alex?"

Alex. I forgot about him. The only person who stayed friends with Lillian after her suicide attempt. The only person who was there for her when I couldn't be. I can't take her away from him. "Okay Lillian maybe..." I stopped. I saw something on Lillian's wrist. She wouldn't... would she? Please not again. She saw what I was looking at and quickly pulled down her sleeve. "Lilly please tell me you didn't-"

"It's nothing, I'm not talking about it!" she says defensively.

"But-" I am cut short when my phone rings. I check the caller ID and it's Nash. I turn to my sister. "I have to take this but don't leave I want us to talk." and I answer Nash's call. After a couple minutes of discussing pointless things about the apartment, I turn my attention back to Lillian. "So where were we?"

She stands up. "Have fun in California." she mumbles and turns to walk away. I grab her arm. "Lil wait a second." She spins around quickly and rips my hand off of her. "No! Just leave okay? I'm not going with you and I never want to see you again!" she screams and turns to walk upstairs.

"I promise to come and visit you," I yell up at her.

"Don't even bother." she yells from the top of the stairs and she slams her door shut like she always does when she's mad, but this one shook the whole house. "What in God's name are you kids doing?" My dad shouts from his room.

"Nothing dad it's fine." as much as I wanted to make things right with Lillian I had to pack for California.
