Crestfallen

Chapter 22

June 13

(9:00 a.m)

“Good morning you two,” Lilium heard her father and Jake’s mother said as they came into the bedroom Jake and Lilium had shared that evening.

Lilium threw the covers off of herself. The first time back in her own bed and she had rather disliked it because of both Jake and the fact that Crina was not there. It was hardly fair that she had been aloud to sleep with a teenage boy and yet not be able to sleep with another girl.

It didn’t make any sense at all, and yet here she was lying right next to the friend she had from the insane asylum. How odd really?

“Good morning,” She yawned as she punched Jake in the arm to get him to wake up. “Why do we have to get up?”

“We were just making sure you kids weren’t up to anything,” Jake’s mother giggled as she moved towards Jake to get him to wake up.

“Like what?” Lilium asked already knowing the answer to the stupid question.

“You know,” Jake’s mother giggled as she finally got Jake to wake up and sit up.

“Why did you punch me in the arm?” Jake asked Lilium as he turned over and sighed. “I was already up, now let me go back to sleep. It is too early to get up!”

“It is nine in the morning,” His mother told him as if she were mad at the fact he would not get up with his “girlfriend”.

“I am going to take a shower,” Lilium said as she got up out of bed. “If anyone needs me do hesitate to ask!”

She walked over to her closet and grabbed a t-shirt and pants. She was going to get in and get out of the stupid shower then go to the airport with Jake and get the fuck out of there. Her parents were going to think the two were going shopping with each other when in fact they were running away.

It was a romantic idea, which she really hoped wasn’t going to come back and bite her in the ass. If her mother or father found out where she was going they would chain her to her bed and leave her there to rot for the rest of her life. A sad fact that they had to leave, but it was the only way to get away from the one’s who wanted to hold them back.

Lilium turned on the hot water and got into the shower, rinsing away all of her fears as she thought of Crina. She could hardly wait to see her. After calling her the night before and telling her that she would be in Los Angeles as soon as possible. It had been so nice to hear Crina’s voice over the other end of the phone. She was overjoyed when she had heard her beautiful voice over the other end of the phone.

The water drained out of the shower as she smiled at the thought of herself and Crina being together. She dried herself with the odd colored towel, making sure she had dried herself all the way she put on her underwear, without evening caring to wear a bra under her shirt.

Like most teenagers, they didn’t all wear underwear. She walked out of the bathroom to find her father and Jake having some sort of discussion about not messing around with her in a sexual way. Tending to forget that he had just allowed the two teenagers to sleep with each other, alone in her bedroom.

“Now, I don’t want you to touch her intimately until you are at least engaged,” Her father said as he noticed his daughter walking out of her bathroom.

“Jake and I are going shopping this morning,” She announced. “I was hoping we could get money to go,”

“Sure thing, is your mother going to go with you?” Her father asked.

Jake’s eyes widened as the plan could end with that one statement. “No,” Lilium said. “Can we go alone?”

“Sure,” Her father said with a wide grin on his face. “Though make sure you tell your mother exactly where you are going, otherwise we are all in deep shit.”
