~~Lilly's P.O.V~~
I sighed. JJ just went to pick the others up. This is gonna be boring.

"Home!" Tobi screamed, echoing to my room
I went downstairs.
"Think we should visit mum, Si." I walked up to him.
"Oh come on, I just got home." He whined like a five year old.
"Come on."
finee!" I could tell he was trying to lighten my mood.

I went up to reception
"Lilly Marsh." I said, she looked up
"Ahhh yes, your mother is awake and you may see her now."
"Thank you." We left to room 603
"Lilly... I don't want you to live with her anymore. Go in there and tell her what you want, poor your emotions out. Don't let her change your mind. She's horrible."

I stood awkwardly in the corner "what happened?"

She groaned "Ugh, they think I had a heart attack but.. they don't know what happened!"

"Mum?" Simon asked concerned
"H-he tried t-to..." She started "R-- I can't... I can't say it...."
"He did what?!" I gritted my teeth "Did he actually do it?!"
"I-I don't remember..." She looked thoughtful "I don't know how far he got... And, thanks for giving me a second chance, Lilly."

"Mum?" I started

"Hm?"

"I'll never forgive you! I'll visit you in hospital, but I'm never living with you! I'd rather die" Okay so that might've been a little harsh, but the truth hurts. Like she did to me.

"Please Lilly! You're so selfish! You weren't even there to protect me! You could've stopped this! why did I go through with this?!"

"Go-go through with what?" I said, fighting back tears.

"Having you."

That's it, I gritted my teeth and clenched my fist "Simon you coming..?"
"Couldn't be happier."

I hugged Simon whilst walking back t the house. I let silent tears roll down my cheeks.
I Shouldn't be here...

Why am I?

I was a mistake.

I wasn't ment to be here.

But I still am.

"Looking very thoughtful..." Simon looked down at me
(A/N: is it the best idea to be doing this chapter in the car? XD)
(Ps one year later and Im writing on a boat)

"I knew you shouldn't have visited her..."

I sighed "No, I'm gonna keep on visiting her."

"What? Why?!" He asked.

"Well," I started "If I don't visit her, she'll think she's won, and I don't want that."

"You're tougher than you seem."

"Thank you. I'll take that as a compliment." I said with a smile. "I love you guys.

"Who do you love the most?" He asked me I looked thoughtful "um"

He sighed "Fine, top two."

"100% JJ and Harry." I joked.

"Really??" He furrowed his eyebrows

"Only kidding, You and Vikk."

He smiled "Better, and I'd be worried if you didn't say Vikk to be honest."

"Oh? And why's that?" I questioned

"Surely if you're going out with someone, you love them, if not you're most likeley forced into the relationship." He explained

I smiled "True."
Love Vikk.
Love
Do I love him..?

//The Next Day\\

~~Simon's P.O.V~~
I'm in 3rd lesson, and I was going to visit mum. On my own. I'm not letting Lilly see her again. (when I see you again I live for song references) I saw how hurt she was.
I walked up to miss. "Miss, I need to see the head teacher."

"And why's that?" She asked, thinking this was an excuse

"To visit my mum in hospital" white lies don't hurt. White lies don't damage hearts

"Ah, Right. You may leave."

"Thank you." I rushed off to the head master "No running!" Someone shouted at me. I shook it off, I'm not even running! It's called power walking. Duh.

"What do you want, Mr Minter?" He asked

"I need to visit my mum... The hospital left a voicemail and said she's gotten worse." I lied

"Oh, you want me to get Lilly?"

"No! I mean no, she's been missing out on a lot of work. She needs to stay here."

"Oh, no, if its family, we understand, now, I'll get Lilly--" I cut him off

"No it's okay, I'll get her, you seem busy anyway."

"Okay then. You may go."

"Thanks sir" I said before leaving.

"Son? Shouldn't you be at school?!" Mum raised her voice.

"Relax, yes I should, but we need to talk."
"Is Lilly here?!"
"No... Why?" I asked
"Oh...I needed to apologize to her..."
"No, Mum. I don't want her to see you again! You broke her mentally, she's scarred by it. She doesn't need an appoligy, she needs ypu to get out of her life! Leave us both alone, do you understand?!"
"Simon I..." I cut her off. You say you're sorry, but you keep hurting her! I'm sick of seeing her hurt! It hurts me, it hurts Vikk, it hurts Harry!" I shouted
"Why do you all shout at me, then leave me?!" She asked mad.

"Because you make a reason for us to be mad!" I shouted (not too loud, this IS a hospital)
"Oh... Well I'm sorry, I don't mean to be a rubbish mother... I'm obviously doing a lot of things wrong..." She said, feeling sorry for herself.

"Do you know what mum?"

"What?" She asked.
"You're so selfish! You only care about yourself!" I screamed

"What? I am not!" She spat back

"I'm Done. This conversation is over." I walked out of her room

"Wait!" Someone called

I sighed "What?"

"Are you Simon Minter?" She asked.
"Indeed... Why..?"

"Well, We've been running some tests and Your Mum's pregnant!"

"What?! No! She can't...! Are you sure?!" She couldn't look after Lilly, a seventeen year old so how the hell will she handle a baby?!

~~Lilly's P.O.V~~
It's now lunchtime, so I went to out Secret Area. I didn't like being out there with loads of people, for obvious reasons.

Time to head to the Sidemen table.
By the time I arrived they were all talking about where Simon is

"I saw him in 3rd." Ethan stated
"So he just.. disappeared 2 lessons before lunch and miss let him?"
I thought hard. I squeezed Vikk's arm and blurted out "he's gone to see mum!" I panicked
