I seem to be on a writing kick lately. I decided to start my own fan fiction (Alicia's and I will still continue) but we'll see where this one goes. Let me know what you guys think.


Chapter 1: Remembering the past, imagining the future.

"I thought this would all be over by now," LJ stated as he changed into a pair of sweat pants with the hotel's logo on them.

"I know, I thought this would be over too. But right now, we're safe. You're Uncle will be back soon and once-"

"It's always seems to be up to Uncle Mike, doesn't it? It seems like we're always waiting on him," LJ said bitterly as he ripped the tag off his newly bought pants.

"LJ, this isn't his fault, this isn't anyone's fault. I understand how frustrated you are," Lincoln stated.

"I shouldn't be living day to day out of a hotel room. I should be at home in my own bed, seeing my friends, and being with..." LJ trailed off but Lincoln knew what he was thinking.

"You miss her, don't you?"

"More than anything," LJ said as he picked up his jeans off the floor. He dug into the right pocket and pulled out a picture. It was Lily's school picture. Written on the back: "Call me sometime 202-555-5000. -Lily Parker" Lincoln looked at the picture and chuckled.

"She looks so young," Lincoln smiled.

"She gave this to me the day before our first date..." LJ looked down.

"Try and get some sleep, ok?" Lincoln said as he hugged his son. LJ looked at Lily's picture one last time and put it on the night stand next to him and rolled over. Lincoln picked up the picture and smiled, then turned out the light. Lincoln walked out into the hallway and dialed his cell phone.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Lily...are you still there?"

"I can't believe what I'm hearing."

"Then you know who this is?"

"How could I forget a voice like that?" Lily chuckled.

"How have you been?" Lincoln asked.

"Alright, you?"

"Alright."

"Where have you guys been? You don't know how worried I've been."

"LJ wanted to call you more than anything but...well you know how unsafe the Company can be."

"Unfortunately, I do," Lily said quietly trying not to remember the past.

"We're finally safe...at least for now. I just wanted you to know that we're alright."

"Where's LJ...can I talk to him?"

"He's sleeping, I'd wake him up but he hasn't slept in days."

"Where are you guys?"

"LJ and I are in Florida."

"Where in Florida? Are you staying with someone or are you in a hotel?" Lily asked frantically.

"We're in a hotel, but I can't tell you anymore."

"Why? You said you were safe."

"Because, knowing you...you'll get on the first plane to Florida," Lincoln smiled.

"And why would that be a bad thing?" Lily asked.

"I don't want to put you in any danger, who knows how long it'll be until the Company shows up again."

"Please, Linc."

"I can't. I'd never forgive myself if anything happened to you."

"I'm not the girl I used to be, I can handle myself."

"Lily, I just can't. I only called so you wouldn't worry about us anymore," Lincoln managed to get out as he felt the pain in his heart.

"Lincoln...I need to get away, I need to see you guys," Lily said fighting tears.

"It would be great to see you and nothing would make LJ happier but...you've had enough danger to last a lifetime."

"What happened to me...that was a long time ago. I'm a different person now, please Linc," Lily said as a tear rolled down her face.

Ahaha, you know me too well
Of course it's about LJ.
And I'm glad you're intrigued by it!

Chapter 2: No regrets

---------------------------------------------

Lily had no doubts and no regrets. LJ and Lincoln were the only people in the world who cared about her, she knew that. She packed up her purse and a suitcase, with everything that was important to her. When she was finished packing her clothes, she carefully picked up an orange polo with a green stripe. LJ had left it at her house one night when they got caught in the pouring rain, she had never given it back. She put the oversized polo over her small figure and then put on her favorite gray hooded sweat shirt. She grabbed her bags and looked at her house one last time, then drove away without worrying about anything.

---------------------------------------------

"Can you just tell me what hotel you're at?" Lily asked.

"Lily, can't you just let this be?" Lincoln asked as he quietly spoke in the hallway.

"My flight just landed, I'm in Orlando."

"WHAT?" Lincoln yelled.

"I'm here Linc, now can you just tell me where you are."

"I'll come pick you, just stay where you are. Wait, what about your family?"

"Linc, I've been alone since...since they..." Lily spoke quietly.

"They're evil people, what happened...it wasn't your fault and you didn't deserve it,"

"What's happening to you right now...it's not your fault and you didn't deserve it, no one deserves to be controlled by them."

"But you're not alone. What about your Dad? What did he say when you left?"

"I told him I was leaving and never coming back, he gave me $100 and told me to get lost."

"I'm so sorry, Lil."

"Not your fault..."

"So you really have no regrets and no fears?"

"No regrets whatsoever," Lily replied confidently.

"I'll should be there soon. Our hotel is probably a half an hour away or so."

---------------------------------------------

"Who was that?" LJ popped up as he noticed he had slept until 1 AM.

"Uh, you're Uncle," Linc lied, not wanting to get LJ excited unless something went wrong.

"Why did you let me slept so late?" LJ asked as he stretched.

"You haven't slept for days LJ, you needed it."

"Did you sleep?" LJ asked.

"For a little. Look I need to go out on an errand, should take me about an hour-"

"Where are you going?" LJ asked skeptical of how truthful his Dad was being.

"I just need to get some information for your Uncle."

"I'm coming with you."

"No, LJ," Lincoln said trying to keep LJ from seeing Lily until the last moment.

"Dad, I'm coming. You can't stop me."

"Fine," Lincoln sighed knowing he couldn't win.

"So where are we really going?"

"To the airport to pick up an old friend, they have connections with the Company. But don't worry, she's on our side," Lincoln stated, knowing everything he said was 100% true.

"Oh great, another girl for you to fall in love with," LJ smirked. Lincoln laughed as they both prepared to leave.

---------------------------------------------

[Alicia]

Good chapter Jackie it’s getting exciting now, I'm looking forwarded to seeing what’s happened to some of the other characters too (ie. Michael ).

[LJfan88]

Oh don't worry, you'll hear from Michael.
I'm glad you're enjoying it.
It's been a lot of fun to write.
Especially because there's an element of surprise/suspense/confusion.
Because the reader doesn't know how Lily got involved in everything and what's happened to her

[LJfan88]

Chapter 3: Mistakes

------------------------------------------------

"Hello?" Michael answered the phone.

"Michael, it's me...I think we should talk."

"We don't have anything to talk about," Michael stated firmly.

"We have plenty to talk about."

"You made your choice..."

"I did it to protect you, Michael."

"Well you didn't do a very good job of that. You should have told me, I had a right to hear it from you and not from that crazy witch."

"I know-"

"I just want to know why," Michael spoke softly asking the question he had been contemplating over and over.

"I was scared, I thought you were dead. I just needed some comfort...I thought you were gone."

"I thought you were gone more times than I can count, but I never..." Michael trailed off as a tear rolled down his face.

"I know, I can never forgive myself but I just want to see you."

"I don't know if I can see you," Michael began to cry.

"Please."

------------------------------------------------

"Hello?" Michael said wiping away his tears.

"Mike, you ok?" Lincoln asked hearing the sound of Michael's voice.

"Uh...yeah I'm fine. What's up?" Michael asked.

"LJ and I are about to leave for the airport."

"You're leaving Florida, why?"

"No we're not leaving. We're going to pick up Lily," Lincoln hesitated.

"Lily? Lily Parker?" Michael asked confused.

"Yeah, LJ's girlfriend."

"What? Why?"

"It's a long story, but LJ doesn't know. I figured it would be best not to get his hopes up...in case something went wrong."

"Lincoln, why are you subjecting Lily to this kind of danger? We don't know how long the Company will be off our backs, there's no way of knowing."

"I know, I know Michael. The only thing I told her was that we were in Florida...next thing I know she's on a flight to Orlando."

"I hope you know what you're doing."

"I do. If anything happens to her, I'll never forgive myself."

"LJ won't forgive you either. I know how much he must miss her but if something happens to her...it will be far worse," Michael stated.

"You still haven't talked to her?" Lincoln asked knowing what his brother was thinking about.

"No," Michael lied not wanting to tell Lincoln the truth.

"You should call her man, you need each other."

"Yeah, well."

"Stop trying to act like you don't miss her. You do miss her and I know how hurt you are but you need her in your life and she needs you. It's no use for you two to sit around feeling sad and lonely, just be the better person and call her," Lincoln firmly stated knowing he might make his brother angry.

"You're right...but there's something I need to tell you, she called me," knowing everything Lincoln had said was true

"Sara called you?" Lincoln was in shock.

------------------------------------------------

"I just talked to your Uncle, we're all set to leave," Lincoln stated.

"Ok." LJ looked around. He picked up the picture of Lily lying next to him. He stared at it and looked at her phone number. He wondered what she was doing. He carefully placed the picture in his pocket as the exited the hotel room.

-------------------------------------------------

[Alicia]

Another good chapter Jackie! We’re getting closer to finding out about Lilly right?

"I told him I was leaving and never coming back, he gave me $100 and told me to get lost."
That was really mean of her dad in the last chapter too, I was going to say what an ass. Or did he really say that? Did she really tell him she was going?
Humm… I’m not so sure I trust this Lilly yet.

Oh poor MISA what has happened to them ?

Yeah each chapter we'll learn a little more about Lily and what happened to her.
And yes, her father is an ass.
Why don't you trust her? Haha

I know poor Misa. But you'll find out what happened to them.
And you'll understand why Michael's upset.

Glad you enjoyed it

Chapter 4: No Hope

"Mr. Parker, I understand you have some news regarding Burrows and his son."

"I think I know where they are."

"And how would you know this?"

"My daughter left this morning, bought a plane ticket with my credit card. I know she's on her way to see LJ and Lincoln."

"How do you know for sure?"

"LJ and Lincoln are the only people my daughter cares about," Mr. Parker stated bitterly.

"How does she know them?"

"Lily and LJ have been dating since the day they met."

"Oh, I see. Where was the plane headed?"

"Orlando, Florida."

"We'll send agents over right away. Excellent work, Mr. Parker. We won't forget about this, you're a great asset to the company. Let's meet for lunch next week to discuss your promotion."

----------------------------------------------------

Lily sat on a bench holding her cell phone in her hand. She began to play with her hair, which was a nervous habit. She looked around the airport suspicious of everyone that walked by. Lincoln had warned her about the Company and she just hoped they didn't know who she was. Her phone rang, she was expecting Lincoln.

"Hi Lily."

"Dad?"

"I don't have much time to talk, I just want to watch your back."

"Wait-why?" A thought jumped into Lily's head. "You called them...didn't you."

"I got the promotion."

"Well I'm glad to know a fricken promotion is more important than your daughter," Lily screamed as she hung up the phone. Tears streamed down her face.

----------------------------------------------------

"Thank you, Parker. It will be much easier to spot a teenage girl in an airport if she's crying."

"You're welcome, sir," Mr. Parker said bitterly knowing he was about to loose his daughter.

----------------------------------------------------

Lily was sobbing and felt so helpless. Up until this point, she had the smallest glimmer of hope that her father still cared about her. Lily felt a tap on her shoulder and she jumped.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you. I was just wondering if you were alright," a woman in a sun dress asked.

"I'm fine, thanks," Lily said trying to stop the tears, but she couldn't.

"Do you need any help?"

"I'm fine, I just need to call someone."

The woman slowly walked away still concerned. Lily reached into her purse and pulled out a small mirror. She wiped the tears from her face and tried to clean the make-up off her face. Her phone rang, she prayed it was Lincoln.

"Hello?"

"What's the matter?" Lincoln asked.

"I'm fine."

"Tell me what happened."

"My Dad called the Company, they're on their way here."

"Wait, he called them to come after his own daughter?" Lincoln asked in shock.

"Yes, he just wanted a stupid promotion," Lily said as more tears came down her face.

"I'm so sorry-"

"I used to have hope that my Dad still cared about me, just a little...but now..."

"You don't need him, you've got us. Well, we should be there in about 5 minutes."

"Does LJ know I'm here?"

"No," Lincoln said looking over at LJ who looked back at him.

"It's better that way, in case..."

"Stop, nothing is going to happen to you, I promise."

"Well I don't think you--they're here! They're here!" Lily noticed the men in suits walking at an extremely fast pace. The men were staring straight at her.

"We'll be right there, keep your phone with you and run!" Lincoln screamed.

Lily hung up the phone and shoved it in her purse. She threw her suitcase over her shoulder and ran. The men began to run after her.

Hey Jackie just realised you updated

Great chapter Stupid Lily's Dad I knew he was an ass, Damn him!

I wonder if L.J's going to be annoyed with Linc for not telling him the truth

[LJfan88]

Hey Jackie just realised you updated

Great chapter Stupid Lily's Dad I knew he was an ass, Damn him!

I wonder if L.J's going to be annoyed with Linc for not telling him the truth

Thanks so much!
Yeah he's a jerk.

And Linc and LJ's relationship is going to change once they find Lily.
I can't tell you if it's a positive change or a negative change.
But it definitely will change

[mstk]

Once again sorry it took me so long to comment on your fic... but here I am now so preapre yourself

Your story is getting really interesting... I totally love the relationship between Lincoln & LJ ... and I so wanna know what happened to Lily! God, this is so thrilling!!
Lily is The Man ok technically not a man but still she has guts to fly to Florida on her own with The Company somewhere around... I like her, she seems to have a strong personality... I think she's the perfect girl for LJ - he's so nice and kind to others and I've always imagined his girl would be a little bossy btw his remarks are so funny

Thanks for involving MiSa too... You know I'm an MiSa addict so extra points for u girl! What happened between them? It seems like Sara screwed up or something...OMG did she cheat on him? That would be great, I mean for the storyline... I guess I'll just have to wait and see.. and where's Mike anyway?

I hope Lily will be ok... Her dad is so mean - leting the Company know where she is I'm looking forward to the reunion of LJ and her That'll be interesting cuz the guy doesn't even have a clue she's in the town...

Anyways, it's a great fic.... a new one to add to my list of addictions Keep writing and I'll keep reading

[LJfan88]

Aww mstk! Thanks so much for your comments!

Yeah I enjoy having a little bit of mystery. What fun is it if the reader knows everything right away? I'm glad you find it thrilling

Yeah I love Lily. I always imagined LJ with a girl who was tough and bossy in a good way. (If that's possible) Not bossy as in she tells LJ what to do and how to think and things like that. But she lets her opinion be known and she's not afraid.

Yeah I had to include MiSa but of course I couldn't start them off all happy and lovey. You'll find out what Sara did and what happened between them. And you'll also find out where Michael is. But I'm trying not to reveal too much in each chapter. Or I won't get you guys to keep reading.

Yeah Lily's Dad is such a jerk! And I can't wait to write the scene where LJ and Lily reunite, it will be a great section.

I'm so glad you enjoy it!
I will definitely keep writing so keep reading

[Flesh]

Definate, it was great ..So wuz gunna happen to Lilly? is that yet to come?
Cant wait ..hell yeh keep it up jacksta

[mstk]

Yeah I love Lily. I always imagined LJ with a girl who was tough and bossy in a good way. (If that's possible) Not bossy as in she tells LJ what to do and how to think and things like that. But she lets her opinion be known and she's not afraid.

Yes, that's exactly what I meant And Linc and LJ's relationship is going to change because of her? That's very interesting... can't wait for the reunion...

[LJfan88]

Thanks so much mstk and Flesh!
I'm really glad you guys like it

I'm adding another chapter very very soon.
I've been having a little writers block, but I'm sure it'll pass.
