I'm where I don't want to be. I look around to see the scene I hate. How am i back in it? I become the scene... Something like this was bound to happen, I knew. I was still surprised though. As much as I don't want to relive this moment... I do.Everything that happened, happened. Even little details I noticed. Down to the creases in my mothers beautiful face. The sound of the plastic cup hitting the floor, the ugly water, and dead flowers falling out. A small round table is lying on the floor. I fall backwards and on the ground. Attempting to stand, I grab the curtain to help me up. I end up dragging the thin red curtain down from its position over the small square window, ans onto the floor next to me. My lips tremble, and I desperately want to cry. But I don't. Instead, I look up defiantly. Wrong move.I wake up with a gentle shake. I see Ian sitting at the edge of my bed, holding my shoulders.I sit up and crash body into his and putting my arms around him letting all the tears come out. He holds me. When I pull back, Ian gets comfortable on the bed and I snuggle up to his huge chest."Your shirt is full of snot now.""Its okay Lil.""No." I sniffle, "It's not! Your shirt...I ruined it.""Sweetie, it just needs to be washed.""No-""Lil, It's okay, everything is okay."When the tears stop, I ask "What are you doing here?""I actually couldn't sleep and just figured I'd bother you. When I came in through your window I seen that you were crying on your sleep. I've been trying to wake you up for the past, like two minutes."I don't say anything."Are you going to tell me what you were dreaming about?"I shake my head. I don't want to think about it.Ian sighs. "Then at least get some sleep."I nod. He holds me closer and I close my eyes, only to immediately open them. What if I dream it again? Ian must know what I'm thinking because he says "It's okay. Sleep. I'm here."I obey. The next morning I wake up in Ian's arms. He's still asleep. I try to wiggle out without waking him, realizing how heavy his arms are. My attempt fails and he wakes. Eyes still closed, he stretches and yawns. Then he looks to me "Morning beautiful!"I smile. "Morning Ian.""Are you okay?" He asks on a more serious note."Yeah... I'm good." I'm lying, and I'm sure he knows it but he just nods "That's good.""I have to go though." He says "I promised some guys from the basketball team that I'd play a few games with them today.""You're on the basketball team? I thought you did football.""I did but football season is over. Now I'm in basketball.""What? No baseball and soccer?" I teasedIan smiled, " Yeah, I did those sophomore and junior year.""Of coarse you did."Ian's smile fell, his face showing concern, " Do you want me to stay? I don't have to go you know?"I smile. Sweet Ian. "I'm okay Ian. Just go."He nods and gets up from the bed to walk to the window. "Ian, you can use the front door."He turns around heading for my door with a smile, "Right."Later I text Carter to see what he's doing. He said he was sick, and that it might be contagious, so I should stay away. I can't help but wonder if he's lying and trying to ignore me because of the weird moment we had.So end up spending the rest of my Sunday doing homework. THE NEXT DAY.**IAN'S P.O.V.** (:o)I pull into my usual parking spot and scan the parking lot. I don't see who I'm looking for.I walk into the school and go to the his locker. He's not there either. I'm pretty sure I know where he's at. This sucks.I go to the other place he might be, and I was right. I see David leaning against my ex-girlfriend's locker with his arms around her. Maybe this isn't a good idea. I turn around hiding from them. I should do this...but its to hard. David apologized and said it was because he was in love, but how is that doesn't make me feel any better. Rachel, really hasn't even spoken to me at all, like she never cared for me.Seeing them happy together is too hard, but I'm willing to try and get over it, for Lily. She seems to be going through something big and doesn't want to talk about it. I want her to be happy, and I think my plan will work, but it won't be easy to do.Deep breath. I turn back in the direction of Rachel and David. They are in each others arms and seem to be whispering. It's cool the though. You know, cause I'm over it. (ha)I stand in front of them and wait a few seconds. When they don't notice me I cough for their attention. They look at me with wide eyes. His arms are still around her."Hey Ian." David says, unsure what to do. Him and Rachel exchange glances briefly before she gives me a nod of acknowledgement, "Ian." Her eyes stayed on the floor.Not bothering to greet them I say, "David, can I talk to you? Privately."David and Rachel catch each others eyes again. Since he doesn't make a move yet I add, "It's about Lily."His eyes might with mine and I know he's gonna cave. He may have back stabbed me but I know we all care for Lily. "Yeah, okay."I nodded my head over to the door of the band room. He nodded.I walked to the door that was only a few feet away and looked back to see David and Rachel kissing like the world was ending. Is that really necessary? I mean it's not like its the last time they'll ever see each other! When they finally broke apart Rachel gave him a smile and a nod. I looked away not really wanting to see the rest of their affectionate moment. David is such a... uh... I don't. I'm not good at insults. I don't insult people much, which is probably because I suck at doing it, plus their a bit to hurtful sometimes.I enter the band room, closing the door and waiting For David to come in. A minute later he walks in and leans against the door. "Sorry about that." He says shamefully.At least he has the decency to feel guilty. I pretend I don't understand. "For what?"David sighs, "Nothing. So, Lily?""There's something wrong with her."David's eyebrows scrunch, "What do you mean?""I think something went down with her and her mom, and she just came here.""Her and her mom never got along, Ian.""No, I know, but this time is different. I seen her cry. Twice! You and I both know Lily never cries."David nods, "Well, what do want me to do Ian?""I want us to be friends again. For Lily. I want to bring back the "Fab-Freakin-Five". It'll make her happy.""Ian... I don't know." He says exasperatedly."What do you mean you don't know? Look, I get that you don't care about me but this is for Lily."His eyes narrowed. "What the hell do you mean? Of course I care! About you and Lily! Shit man, I thought we talked about this! I didn't mean to hurt you, I really didn't!" His voice lowered "It's just that me and Rachel...you know, we-""Fell in love. Yeah don't worry. I'm over it. Anyway, so are you in or not?"He looked at the floor. When he looked to me he nodded. "Yeah.""Good." I smile slightly, feeling proud of myself.David turns to the door and stops in his tracks. He turns around to me and says, "Um, how are you going to get Adam to agree to this?"I give a small smile. I was a little worried at first but now I'm not. "Adam may be a...uh, a meanie but he would do anything for Lily. Just like us."David cracked a grin. "Meanie? Your still to soft to make actual insults.""Yeah...need to work on that."**LILY'S P.O.V.**Monday Carter texted me saying he was still to sick and wasn't going to school. When my lunch period came around I sat in the Library alone. A familiar Blonde came and sat down next to me. "Hi, Lily!"'Hi." I said polity. This girl talked to me my first day, and is in some of my classes. I'm pretty sure her name is either Kathy or Katie?""Katie, right?"She smiled, "Yeah. I'm surprised you remember! Anyway, how was your first week?""It was okay."We had a conversation about an English assignment we both had. From that conversation, we started to talk about our favorite books, and music. I like Katie. She seems genuinely nice and when it was time for me to go to class, I was slightly sad. Talking with her was fun and I wanted to keep talking.I walked out of the libabry and into hall saying "Later, Katie!""Yeah, see you in English class!"I walked to my locker to get the things I needed for my next class. When I reached it I stopped dead in my tracks, gasping at what was in front of my eyes."What the hell did you do!?!" I shout.A/n-1.Okay, so sry that this chapter is shorter but i just wanted to get one out there.2. OMG, you were in Ian's head! What are your thoughts on his thoughts?3.
