Zack was putting the box in the car when he heard Lillian’s shriek. Running back inside, and saw Lillian lying on the ground, unconscious and surrounded by a pool of blood. He stopped breathing and ran towards her. He shook her body lightly.“Lily! Lily!” He called her out, but she didn’t move.Victor and Lisa came towards them hearing the commotion and looked in horror as they saw Lillian covered in blood.Zack put his ear closer to her chest and heard her heart beating. He quickly carried her to the car and drove to the hospital.When he was at the hospital, he yelled out for help. A doctor ran towards him as Zack laid her down on the stretcher. The doctor grabbed a bunch of cotton and put pressure on her wound to stop the bleeding. A nurse came in and took the cotton buds from her so the doctor could check other things.“What happened?” she asked Zack as she checked for her pupils’ response with a small

It was her third day at the hospital. She and Zack didn’t talk about that thing again because Zack knew she would give him an answer when she was ready and Lillian still hadn’t decided yet. Though they were a bit awkward with each other, they mostly talked with each other like they usually used to. They were both precious to each other in their own ways and didn’t want to lose one another. In the time she spent with him, she realised how nice he always had been to her and she couldn’t believe that she didn’t realize his feelings for her sooner. Zack gave her phone back the day before yesterday. He found it in her car. Alan was at work and gave them both time off. He would visit them after work and then go back to home. Lillian was reading a novel on her phone, and Zack was away to get her dinner. She was reading when she received a message from Aurora. She read the text. ‘Meet me on the rooftop. We need to talk.’ She got out of bed and left he

“My answer is...” Lillian said as she looked at him. Zack unconsciously tensed up his whole body in anticipation. She was just about to tell him her answer when her doctor came in. “Good, you're awake. We need to run a few tests before we decide if you can get discharged or not.” The doctor told her. Zack’s head fell in annoyance. ‘And you couldn’t come a few seconds later.’ He thought. She saw Zack’s expression and pursed her lips to hide her smile. “I’ll be back.” She told him. He nodded and gestured for her to leave. She tried to control her laughter and went with the doctor. She was on her way when she accidentally bumped into a guy. There was an electric shock that went through her as soon as they touched. She took a step back from him and looked at him to apologize, but she couldn’t say a word. She was mesmerized by him. He was handsome and tall with messed up black hair and black eyes. Her heart was beati

Aurora woke up with aches all around her body. She got up, wincing, and went to the bathroom. She lazily looked at herself in the full sized mirror. But when she saw her reflection in the mirror, she was in shock because she saw bruises on her arms and legs. She took off her clothes and saw that she had a large bruise on her back. She yelled on top of her lungs. Her parents rushed into her room when they heard her yell. Her mother checked on her in the bathroom while her father stayed out. “What’s wor-” Lisa asked, but stopped and gasped as she saw her daughter’s bruised body with horror. Lisa rushed inside the bathroom and grabbed her daughter’s shoulders, turning her around and looking at her bruised body. “What happened to you?” her mother asked worriedly, and then smelled some alcohol on her. “Did you drink last night?” she asked her. Aurora tried to recall, but she couldn’t remember. “I don’t know! I can’t remember but look at my

Since Shadow and Lillian had the same classes, he always sat right next to her. She was feeling happy that even though there were other seats; he was still sitting next to her. She had no idea what was happening to her or why she was feeling this way. Aurora was passing by Shadow, so he took out his legs. She tripped against his leg and fell on the floor on her knees. Shadow retreated his leg and looked at her. The entire class had its eyes on her. “I know that I’m handsome, but there is no need for you to bow down to me.” He told her. Lillian let out an accidental snort while trying to control her laughter. Aurora glared at them. She got up and pointed at him furiously. “You tripped me on purpose!” she snapped at him. Shadow pointed at himself innocently. “Who me? That’s so bad. You fell on your own and now you’re blaming me for it.” He told her. “I am not fucking lying!” she told him in a pissed tone. “Well then, prove it
