Lily Can You See My Heart Novels & Stories

"Fine, but you just say the word, Harp, and he's out of here." "Everything is fine, Lizzy. Better than fine." Across the room, Wyck glanced up and met Harper's eyes. In them she read hope, regret and a gentle promise. She was still unsure about what the future held but she managed a tiny smile in return. For today, it was enough.

My heart was racing a thousand miles an hour. I held my breath, waiting for her to explode. I expected her to scream, to tell her mom about the time I locked her in the gym locker room, or how I called her names in front of Lucien. ​Lily slowly turned her head. Her facial expression was inexplicable. It wasn't anger, and it wasn't sadness. It was just... blank. She looked at me for a long five seconds. ​“I know who she is,” Lily said. Her voice was cold and sharp.

"Yes, please." She rolled her eyes. "Creed. Yuyu. It is so painfully obvious that he is falling for you. And honestly?" She poked her finger at me, hitting my forehead. "I think it's mutual." I stood frozen. My brain screamed DENY, DENY, DENY. But my stupid, stupid heart? It betrayed me. ".Maybe." Lily leapt off the bed, eyes wide. "I KNEW IT!" "SHH!" I wrestled with her, smacking a hand over her mouth. "The walls have ears! My tacky love life has to remain a secret!"

"Only God knows what I will be losing this time? " "This time......;" Lily smiles secretly as she arches her chin up like she was thinking about something important. She instantly smiles flashing her perfect set of white teeth when she has found the answer. "This time;" She repeated excitedly walking ahead of me to the club and just before she went in, she turns back and grin brightly "you will be losing your heart" and went in.

Not to hurt him, but to protect herself. “I know.” He stepped closer. “But does he see you the way I do?” She froze. He didn’t wait for an answer. Just leaned in, barely an inch between them. His voice was a whisper. “The heart remembers, Lily. Even when the mind tries to forget.” Then he walked away. Leaving her breathless in the quiet night. She walked to her car, still dazed. But as she opened the door, her phone buzzed. A message from Ryle:

He was aware that Lily would never accept her love for him when sober, so he wanted to listen to those words at least then. Lily calmly took his hand from her waist and placed it on her heart. "Can you hear my heart racing? It always does when I am with you, near you, close to you and yearning for you. It beats and longs for you.... only you." Lily said in a sensual and alluring tone.

That was close. "Come check out my new poem." Lily says ecstatically as she speeds towards my direction and hops into the seat beside me with her poem note in her hand. "I constructed it today when I was feeling kind of bored and lonely. " She then closes her hand as if obstructing someone else from her whatever she wants to tell me next. " It's mostly about love though." She whispers into my ear and I chuckle nervously. I find myself looking up to stare at Mr Mitchell who is also gazing at me with his fingers around his mustache.

So, I turned off the lights. There's still a light on the lampshade beside me. I lay on bed and looked up to the ceiling. My hand on my forehead thinking why am I being like this to Lily. My heart finally become soft. I felt my heart beating so fast, it seems abnormal already, and maybe one day I will be diagnosed with heart failure. Tsk. I was influences by Lily's craziness. I faced her and she is facing me too. Her face saying that, "Don't bother me Jeoff! If not you'll see what you want."

She has brown hair, brown eyes, a stuffed rabbit clutched against her chest. I kneel beside the bed. I introduce myself. I tell Lily I am going to fix her heart. I tell her she will be able to run and play and chase her rabbit through the garden. I tell her she just needs to sleep for a little while. Lily looks at me. Her eyes are wide, scared. She asks if it will hurt. I tell her she will not feel anything. I tell her I will be with her the whole time. I tell her she is very brave.

Something raw. Something that made her heart ache. “You don’t know what I want,” she whispered, her voice barely steady. Liam’s fingers traced down to her chin, tilting her face up until she had no choice but to look at him. His eyes darkened, the shadows in them pulling her in like gravity. “You’re right,” he murmured. “I don’t.” A heartbeat passed. "But I know you're scared." Lily’s lips parted, but no words came out.
