A Life's Worth

Monday morning

Lily sat on the couch of the school guidance counselors office. She was talking to the counselor like she was every Monday morning.
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
Look a bit more tired today, something happen?
Lily
Lily
Just a bit of a long night.
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
Sounds like you need a pick-me-up, coffee?
Lily nodded.
Lily
Lily
Yeah, sure.
Mrs. Sally stood up and headed for the counter of her office, to make them a cup of warm coffee.
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
Milk or sugar?
Lily
Lily
Both, please.
Mrs. Sally finished their coffee and handed Lily her mug.
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally

Lily
She's--
Lily just remembered something important.

•flashback•
At the mall.
Lily
Lily
Hey, can you hold my bag for a sec?
Lily
Lily
uh-- sure.
Vee went into the bathroom and Lily waited outside.
Someone bumped into lily and all of Vee's belongings that were in her bag were on the floor.
Lily
Lily
Oh, sorry!
Lily bent down and picked all of her friend's stuff and saw a pack of cigarettes among them.
she froze before picking it up and quickly placing it into her bag.
just then Vee stepped out.
Lily
Lily
Thanks, so where were we?
She said as she took her bag from Lily.
Lily
Lily
Something wrong?
Lily snapped back to reality and stuttered.
Lily
Lily
Uh-uh--y-yeah
Lily
Lily
Okay, I guess?

Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
Lily?
Mrs. Sally called.
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
Lily?
She snapped back.
Lily
Lily
Uh-- yeah, she's okay.
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
Alright, that's good.
RING!!
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
Well, that's the first bell.
Mrs. Sally
Mrs. Sally
I think you should hurry along and find Vee before you both are marked late.
Lily
Lily
Um, okay, thanks again for listening Mrs. Sally.
Mrs. Sally smiled as she waved her goodbye.
Lily went to the entrance of her school and saw Vee sitting on the brick wall, despite the rule against it, as usual.
Lily
Lily
Hey, Vee!
Lily
Lily
Oh, hey, Lily.
Lily
Lily
You went to see Mrs. Sally again?
Lily giggled.
Lily
Lily
Ahahaha, You know me well.
Vee glanced at Lily's arms and she hid them behind her.
Lily
Lily
Show them to me.
Lily
Lily
What do you mean?
Lily
Lily
You know what I mean.
Vee hopped down from the wall and approached Lily.
Lily kept her hands behind her back despite Vee's persistence.
Vee grabbed her arm and flipped it to see her wrist.
Lily
Lily
Hey, Wha--!
Her friend froze at what she saw.
Lily
Lily
you said you'd stop...
Lily looked down and saw her doing.
5 or 6 bloody cuts around her wrist.
She met Vee's teary eyes and took her arm back before covering it all up with her sleeve.
Lily
Lily
Y-you said you'd stop.
Vee clenched her hand into a fist and wanted to just fall a thousand feet.
Lily
Lily
Vee...
Lily
Lily
Go inside, I'll meet you there.
Vee faked a smile.
something she had the habbit for, pretending to be happy?
Vee walked past her friend, and headed towards the opposite direction of their school and into a back alley.
Lily
Lily
Vee... sorry....
But Vee was too far for her to hear it.
Vee's tears spilled onto the muddy and dirty floor of the back alley and she dropped to her knees.
Grey
Grey
You know, you shouldn't be here.
Vee turned to see Grey standing behind her.
She rubbed her eyes and stood back up.
Lily
Lily
what the hell are you doing here?
Grey
Grey
saw you from a far, followed you and here we are now.
Lily
Lily
Tch! like I'd believe that.
Vee took a cigar out of her pocket and held her hand out to Grey.
Grey
Grey
What?
Lily
Lily
Lighter.
Lily
Lily
I know you have one.
Grey
Grey
Ugh, after all this time you still can't buy yourself a lighter.
He dug inside his pocket and took a small lighter out.
Vee lit her cigarette and let herself get lost in the smoke.
Lily
Lily
So, why are you really here?
Grey chuckled.
Grey
Grey
Never could get anything past you could I?
Lily
Lily
Tch! You can't even steal a coin from me how much more a reason.
Grey moved beside her and gave her a nudge on the shoulder.
Grey
Grey
Saw you crying earlier.
Grey
Grey
Something wrong?
Vee crushed the cigar under her shoe and turned around.
Lily
Lily
Nothing's wrong. You gonna go to school or what?
Grey
Grey
Yes, Ma'am!
Grey teased.
Vee laughed and waved him over.
Lily
Lily
Come on, douchebag.
Grey smirked before laughing a bit.
Grey
Grey
Made you smile.
Lily
Lily
Shut up!
She smacked him in the back.
