Lillian's P.O.V

My alarm clock wakes me up at six in the morning. Considering I went to sleep at one I was pretty tired. I pat the sheets next to me and feel nothing. Where's Alex?

No more than six seconds later, Alex comes in holding two mugs. "Get up Lillian or we'll be late. I made you coffee." he holds up one of the cups.

"I don't like coffee." I say and crinkle my nose in disgust.

"I know but it'll wake you up. I put in a lot of cream, drink up." he tells me and I take a small sip of the bitter drink. Gross how do people have coffee everyday? I should probably get used to it. Without Matthew here to drag me out of bed every morning I'll need something else to get me up.

I finally get out of bed and get dressed. I put on a grey shirt, long sleeved of course, shorts and my black converse. I lay out some of Matthew's old clothes on the bed for Alex.

I walk downstairs and find my dad passed out on the couch snoring. I walk past him to the kitchen where I see Alex eating breakfast. "I left you some clothes on the bed."

"Thanks." he says as he puts his dirty dishes in the sink. "Eat up." he tells me before he runs upstairs. I'm not really hungry but I make some toast anyway. I take one bite of it and can't finish it. Alex comes back down a few minutes later. "Hey want me to ask my brother if he'll drive us to school today? Then he can bring my backpack."

"Sure." I say as I throw the rest of my toast away. Alex gives me a look. "What?" I ask.

"Is that all you ate?"

I roll my eyes. "Relax I'm just not hungry. Maybe I'll get something at school." he keeps looking at me. "Whatever. Let's just go."
