Age; 14.
Mum; Eleanor.
Sophia is Eleanor's sister in this.
Personal for TheRealLilyTommo.
"For the last time, Lily, you're not going to that party!" Eleanor said.
"Why not?! Mum, it's the party of the year and all my friends are going!" Lily said.
"You're not going!" Eleanor said.
"Give me a reason why." Lily said.
"I'm your mother and I say no. Is that a good enough reason?" Eleanor asked.
"No, it's a stupid reason. I just don't see why you won't let me go!" Lily said.
"Your mother said no!" Louis said.
"Who said you can come into the conversation?!" Lily asked.
"Excuse me?!" Louis asked.
Lily sighed, "who said you can come into the conversation?" She asked slowly.
"See, this is one of the reasons you're not going! You're attitude to me and your father is absolutely shocking and I'm disappointed in you." Eleanor said.
Lily rolled her eyes, "wouldn't be the first time." She mumbled.
"That's it, you're grounded." Eleanor said.
"What?! I've not even done anything!" Lily said.
"Not done anything?! You're arguing with your mother and giving me cheek, that's a good enough excuse for me." Louis said.
"Again, who asked you?" Lily asked.
"Upstairs." Louis said.
"No, I'm not-"
"GO UP THE FUCKING STAIRS!" Louis yelled causing Lily to flinch.
She sighed and ran upstairs.
*Lily's p.o.v.*
I wanted to fling something at the wall, but fought against it as I would get into more trouble.
But, I know for a fact I'm not staying. I thought, grabbing an overnight bag from under my bed and packing a couple of stuff that'll last me for a few days.
I quickly opened my window and climbed out, there was a thing on the side of the house that made it easier to climb out of.
•••
I knocked on the door, and Sophia answered.
"Lily?" She asked and brought me inside.
^next day^
*Eleanor's p.o.v.*
"Two o'clock in the afternoon, why am I not surprised she isn't awake?" I asked as Louis scrolled through his phone.
"She probably is awake but she's just avoiding us." Louis said.
I sighed and headed upstairs. "Lily?" I asked knocking on her door. "Lily, I'm coming in. You better be up." I said and then opened the door.
I went wide eyed when her bed was made and her window was wide open.
"LOUIS!!" I screamed.
There was thud and a little 'ow' as he ran upstairs.
"What's wrong?" He asked.
"She's not here." I said as the tears brimmed in my eyes. "She's ran away, Louis. She's ran away." I sobbed.
"Don't worry, love. We'll find her. We'll find her." Louis said rubbing my back.
^Few days later^
*Y/n's p.o.v.*
"I find it weird that they've not checked over here for you. I mean, they know how close I am with you." Sophia explained.
"Either that, or the gave up two minutes into trying to find me." I said.
"Why do you think that? You're their daughter, Lily, they would do anything for you. Fair enough, they didn't let you go to a party, but it was only a party and they were maybe scared that you would end up getting drunk, hurt or something would happen to you." Sophia explained.
"There was going to be adults there, like my friends sister who's like twenty five." I said.
"Yeah, but she can drink as well, she might not be that responsible." Sophia said.
Just then Sophia's phone went off.
"Hello?" Sophia asked. "Oh, hi, Eleanor."
I went wide eyed.
"Is Y/n with me?" Sophia asked.
I shook my head.
"No, sorry, love. I'll call you if I hear from her, yeah?" Sophia asked. "Ok, bye."
I ran a hand through my hair.
"Was the argument really that bad?" Sophia asked.
"It wasn't just that argument, we've been arguing all the time lately and it's making us grow apart. Like, they never side with me, they always side with each other and it just makes me look like an idiot." I explained.
"What you need to remember sometimes, love is that they're the adults and your the child. They just want you to be safe and they obviously don't want to argue with you either. They might notice the way you're growing apart as well and that's the last thing they want to do but they just want to keep you safe." Sophia explained.
^Later^
*Sophia's p.o.v.*
I was making me and Lily lunch when there was a knock on the door.
"It's my dad." Lily whispered and ran upstairs.
I sighed and headed to the door.
"Have you heard anything from Lily?" He asked with his hands in his pockets, his hair was sticking up in all directions, and his eyes were red.
I looked down, I really wanted to tell the truth but I don't know.
"No..I haven't, Lou. I'm sorry." I replied, instantly feeling guilty.
"Can you help us look for her?" He asked.
"I have to start packing." I replied.
"Pack? Where you going?" Louis asked.
"I'm going on vacation to Spain for a year." I replied. "I'm leaving tomorrow."
"Are you being fucking serious? You're only niece is missing and you're doing fuck all! Imagine if that was your child and me and Eleanor decided to go on vacation for a fucking year! We don't even know if she's safe because she's not answering our calls and texts." Louis explained.
"Well, that's your problem not mine." I said.
"Do you even care?" Louis asked.
"Of course I care, Louis. And I'm sorry, I'll finish packing and then I'll go and look for her, ok?" I asked and he nodded.
"Fine. Call me if you hear anything." He said.
"Will do." I said and closed the door. I turned round and saw Lily at the top of the stairs. "We better get you ready as well."
"I don't have that amount of clothes with me." Lily said.
"Do you have a hoodie?" I asked.
Lily nodded, "put that on and put the hood up. We can't let them know you're with me just yet." I said and we headed out the shops.
^next day, at the airport^
*Lily's p.o.v.*
"Are we actually going away for the year?" I asked.
"Yeah, it's for this fashion thing, the hotel is so nice, it's five star, really good reviews and the pool is amazing. I'm sure you'll love it." Sophia replied.
*Eleanor's p.o.v.*
"Sophia hasn't text me back at all. I mean, she's obviously heard something, she's obviously seen her, she's like a best friend to Lily. She's one of the go to people when it comes to Lily." I said.
"Did she tell you she was going away for the year?" Louis asked.
"Yeah, I think it's bang out. Her niece is missing and she's not giving a shit." I said.
"Maybe she booked it, I mean, she can't just drop everything." Louis said.
"Well, if it was her child that was missing, I would drop everything and help her. I mean, she's my sister." I explained.
"Sister or not, she should help us. I've even got the boys to help us."
•••
*Lily's p.o.v.*
It's nearly the end of the vacation and Lily and Sophia still haven't been caught.
"I mean, you would think my mum would've seen a little bit of me in your Instagram stories." I said.
"I know, but I think she would be too busy looking for you instead of going through Instagram." Sophia said.
Sophia's phone then started ringing.
"It's your mum." She said and answered. "Hello? Hi-woah, calm down. What? How-how did you know? What do you mean, open the door?"
I raised an eyebrow and opened the door.
"I knew it!" Dad said and I went wide eyed when I saw mum standing behind him.
"What are you guys doing here?" I asked.
"Could ask you the same question." Dad said and came into the room. "Why is she here with you?! You told me you haven't heard from her or even seen her!"
"Look, I felt guilty the whole time but she wanted time." Sophia said.
"We're her parents! Whether or not she wanted to go home, you take her home!" Dad said.
"You're going home, we're glad your safe but whether or not you want to go home, you come home. We were so worried about you." Mum said.
"I'm sorry, but it's just all the arguing we've been doing, it made me grow apart from you's and I just didn't want it to continue." I explained.
"We're sort it out. I promise." Mum said and pulled me into a tight hug.
"Sorry for lying to you." Sophia said.
"You kept her safe. That's all we wanted, for her to be safe." Louis said.
