Chapter 2 - Home

The bell rings in time for me to regain my emotions and gather my things to leave.

'What?! Why is this happening! That's not something that should be okay!' I angrily thought.

"Well.. I hope you know what you're doing because there is a reason that I broke up with him. He's not that good of a person Lilly. Just be carful, please." I look Lilly in the eyes and say with all my heart. "I don't want anything bad to happen to you."

"Jeez, you're such a huge worry wart. I'll be fine. We're each others English partners for the semester, so I'll see what he's like and if I truly want to date him. I just started liking him very recently," she replies. Lilly stands up and goes to her friends that she has just made eye contact with.

"I'll see you at home, oh! And Justin offered me a ride, so don't wait for me after school," she calls back. She turns back around and leaves the lunch room.

"Great," I mumble. Chloe offers a sympathetic pat. I turn to Alex and Chloe, there expressions alone was all I needed. We all hated Justin and didn't like what we have just been informed about. My sister, dating my ex! Why in the world would she do that! Lilly knew how much we fought when we were together and I thought that she didn't like him at all because she was always around us when we were together.

Something is very wrong, I'm not sure what it is. Justin shouldn't have hit on my sister and Lilly shouldn't have fallen for him so easily.

I put my things into my car to leave school for the day.

"Alex! You coming anytime this decade?!" I yell across the parking lot. He was talking with one of his soccer team friends. Alex twisted his ankle two weeks ago and hasn't been able to actually play. The doctor is now just letting him use the treadmill at the gym.

He finishes his conversation and quickly jogs over to me. When he gets to my car I can see that his ankle still bothers him a little bit but he doesn't comment.

"You okay?" I ask. It was just a simple jog, but he was still healing. The sprain was pretty bad.

"Yeah, I'm okay," he replied like nothing was wrong. He opened the door and got inside my green 2006 Subaru forester that I named Ranger. I got in once I loaded my backpack into the grey back seats.

I started the car and began to drive out of the parking lot. As soon as I got into the street, I had to slam on my breaks because a black Toyota decided to cut in front of me. I was very tempted to blast my horn, but then decided against it.

"What do you have for homework tonight?" Alex turned to me and ask.

"I have a worksheet from Calculus 2 and a essay for History. What about you?" I respond taking the right turn to go to my house.

"That essay for History and I have to write up two papers for Biology, want to work on the History essay together?" Alex never liked history so he has a hard time doing the assignments by himself. I take a left and then another right and I see Mt house.

"Sure, we can order pizza while we're doing it." I comment.

"Really?! Yeah! What kind are you wanting?" Alex's face lights up and does a air pumping first.

"The usual probably, half cheese and half Hawaiian." I roll up to my blue, two story house with a black oak door. Then I pull into my driveway and hit the garage door. As I'm waiting for it to open, I notice that there's another car in my spot.

It was Justin's Grey Ford truck.
