Lily bit her lip and nodded, then hugged him quickly. "Thank you," she whispered, then sped off towards home, her skin aching.

Cole sighed and nodded lowly in reply before silently leaning back against the van and resting his eyes, going through his own little role of how he hadn't been paying attention and she had gotten away.

It took Lily nearly two hours to run all the way back, but she finally made it home, stumbling in through the door. The rope burns on her skin were still there and worse than ever; there was a red welt on her cheek where she'd been slapped. But she was home, and that was all that mattered to her right then.

Seth blinked lightly at the sound of the door opening and glanced up, shocked to see Lily. "Lily! How'd you get here, are you alright?!" He asked immediately standing and rushing over to her, hugging her tightly.

"I'm fine," she breathed, hugging him back tightly. She ignored the pain that shot through her and hugged him tighter.

Tyler had gone up to bed.

Seth frowned worriedly and sighed, nodding slightly in reply. "Good." He whispered in relief, holding her tightly and not wanting to release her.

Lily held him tightly, burying her face in his neck. Silently, she hoped Cole was alright; those guys had seemed really tough. She exhaled shakily.

Seth frowned worriedly and sighed, "We have to tell Tyler you're back.. He'll kill me if I wait until morning to tell him." He sighed, gently releasing her and starting up the stairs.

"Wait," she said softly, pulling him back. She looked into his eyes for a moment before kissing him gently.
