The New Girl

Chapter Thirtyseven

I smiled as I got out of the shower feeling refreshed. I sat at my desk and began writing a letter to Tyler to put with his present.

'Dear Tyler, I know being with me has probably sucked these past few weeks. Well I guess months. You'll never know how grateful I am everyday that you're still with me. I understand how hard it must have felt to know I could die at any minute and you just had to watch. I love you even more for staying through that. Even if I have my bad days when I don't want to see anyone know that doesn't change how much I love you. I love you so fucking much. God how many times will I tell you I love you in this. The answer to that is one more time. I love you Tyler!! ~ Lilly'

I smiled as I folded it and put it with the picture I got of us framed. It was more like three pictures shoved in one frame.

The top one was the picture we took to send to Amy to make her jealous, cause that's when we began. The next was of him holding my hand at the hospital. The last was of us kissing.

I put the bag on the floor and began getting ready. I curled my hair in loose waves and did my simplest full face of makeup.

I quickly got dressed in black denim skirt and a red crop top that had a T stitched in it. Me and Taylor had matching ones except hers had an L in it. I paused as the memory flooded my brain.

My phone ringing snapped me from my daze. "Hello?" I answered. "Hey are you still coming?" Samantha asked carefully. "Yes." I said. "Okay well we're waiting outside then." She said. "Okay I'll head down there." I said.

I wore my boot and a different black boot that went up the same length as my medical boot. I sprayed Tyler's favorite perfume and grabbed his present before going to Samantha's car.

By the time we got to the party there where already a lot of people there. I went straight to the present table and put mine in the front.

I then walked to the drinks table and poured a coke into a solo cup. I couldn't drink alcohol because of the medicine I was on but if you didn't act like you were drinking people tried to force you too.

"Hey Damon have you seen Tyler?" I asked as he stumbled over. "He's by the beer pong table. Where's Samantha?" He asked. "She went towards the living room." I said. He nodded and we both went our separate ways.

I found Tyler easily. "Tyler!" I yelled over the noise. He looked slightly panicky. "Lilly I really need to talk to you." Tyler said.

Before I could say anything Lisa's voice yelled for me. "LILLY COME HERE!! We're taking a group photo!" She yelled.

"Okay we'll talk in a second. I promise I'll come find you!" I said as I kissed him before making my way to Lisa.

Finding Tyler was harder than I thought it would be. "Hey Rebecca have you seen Tyler?" I asked.

"I think he went to the kitchen." She answered. I walked towards the kitchen. He wasn't in here but I took it as an opportunity to refill my coke.

"Ouch what happened to you?" A familiar voice called. "More than you could ever imagine." I answered as I saw Ethan.

"I'm imagining a lot." Ethan smirked putting his hands on either side of me. "Okay, a crazy guy who was trying to get revenge on my mother purposely t boned my car, which eventually killed my best friend and then kidnapped me. Put me through a torture maze to get out and then I was in a very long coma and almost died." I said before smiling sarcastically.

That's how I handled emotions and I really need to work on that. He laughed slightly. "Oh I was serious." I said pushing him back and began walking away.

"Okay wait! I won't bother you anymore but you forgot your drink." He said handing me my cup from the counter. "Thanks." I said before continuing to walk out of the kitchen.
