I drove about a mile, before I finally stopped. I just parked on the side of the road and let the tears stream down my face. What was I doing crying over him? Something I shouldn't do why did I even care. Once I gained enough composure to drive I just went half a mile to Lily's house. She wouldn't mind.

It was almost midnight when I pulled up and I didn't want to wake anybody up. I knew she kept her window unlocked so I just cracked it open and slid into her room. She was past out on her bed. Lily was in band on color guard (she twirls flags it's harder than it sounds) she was still in her uniform with her make-up smeared. She looked so peaceful, but I needed to talk to her.

As quietly as I could I jumped on her bed and yelled in her ear "LILY WAKE UP!"

"What the hell!" Lily hissed sleep still evident in her voice.

"I need to talk to you"

"How did you even get in here?"

"Lily does it matter!"

"I guess not what's wrong?" Lily asked now awake with concern in her voice.

I told her about my run in with Aiden and about how crappy I've been feeling lately. She just sat there listening like always. I would always owe my best friend. When I was finally finished blabbing about my problems she said, "Why do you even car?"

That was the question for all of this "Why did I even care?" I couldn't quite put it into words. Why did I care about anything? Aiden, Landry, Taylor the list goes on and on I couldn't quite explain my reasons for caring only that I did.

My actual response was " I don't know?" and I didn't. Lily understood though and just nodded and we sat there in her room until we both drifted off to sleep........

The next morning I woke up and had a cat on my stomach and a dog beside me. Lily had a cat named cloud and a dog named Wilroe. I've had animals before. I was more into hunting and killing em' rather than keep em' as pets. After shooing them all out of her room. Lily was still zonked out. So I was just gonna go home. I grabbed my phone and keys and was almost out the window. When I heard her door creak open.

It was her mom Lynn. Lynn was sweet, cool, and a good mom. Before I could say anything she sighed and said " Thank God it's you, I thought I was gonna have to come in here and shoo some boy off my daughter!"

I just laughed Lily woke up and said " I'm a virgin thank you very much!" She was telling the truth. There weren't many but Lily and I and most of our friends were all virgins.

"TMI I'm gonna go make pancakes for you both" Lynn said.

After she left Lily said "Well that was kinda awkward."

"Sure was your mom thought I was a guy!"

"That's what your worried about?"

"Yup!" I said popping the "P"

"Whatever, wanna watch Tristan?" she asked

Tristan was my all time favorite movie. Tristan and Isolde was the best movie ever! I cried like a baby every time I watched it. It was the most amazing love story ever (it seriously is and I suggest you watch it) their love brought down a kingdom.

This is just what I needed my best friend, pancakes, and Tristan it would help me forget about everything that was going on for a little while atleast!

Sorry for not updating sooner! I've been beyond busy!
