real life, instagram

upon getting out of the car, trevor makes his way around to open the door for lilith. as he does so, lilith thanks him and takes his hand in hers. trevor moves some of the wet hair out of her face, taming it slightly since it's beginning to dry.

lilith doesn't bother to knock since it's the place where she's sleeping at, so when they step through the door, lilith sees one of her best friends from florida.

"LILI!" peyton runs up and jumps into lilith's arms, wrapping her tightly in a hug.

"PEY!" lilith holds her tightly, burying her head into peyton's neck.

"did someone say lili?" grey walks in the room before running over and joining the hug between peyton and lilith. the other three floridians join the hug as well, expressing how much they missed each other.

"alright, alright. enough of this... reunion stuff. let's go sit in the living room." nick says, pulling lilith with him. lili grabs trevor's wrist and makes him walk behind her and nick. the three sit on the couch; trevor on the side, lilith next to him, and nick sitting next to her.

christopher locks eyes with lilith before she looks over at trevor, who is having a conversation with ridge. chris shakes his head and puts his arm around sasha, pulling her closer, silently wishing it was lilith beside him.

-

after a very long night of getting stares from chris, trevor decides it's time for him to leave. lilith walks him out to his car.

"lili, let's talk for a second." lilith nods and listens attentively as trevor begins to talk. "i like you, like, a lot. but, that other guy in there, i think his name is chris, has a very big problem with that."

lilith interrupts him, "i'm sorry about that."

"no, it's fine. i just-" he tries to get the right words. "i think it's better if we stay friends. you're a really fun person to be around, but you and chris would be really good together. i've seen their videos and i think since i've been added to the equation, he's not been happy."

lilith nods, understanding what trevor is getting at.

"i think you guys should talk about whatever is going on between the two of you, because, if i'm being honest, i think he might be in love with you." lili's eyes widen as she begins shaking her head.

"no. no, chris is dating sasha. he's in love with her."

"lilith, he's not in love with that blonde girl. he couldn't take his eyes off of you the entire night." trevor picks her head up. "trust me."

lilith nods, raising her arms up to give trevor a hug.

"we're still friends, right?" lilith asks.

"i think we both knew that's all we were ever going to be." he whispers in her ear.
"i'll see you around, lil d."

"bye, big t." lilith puts a smile on her face as trevor drives away, leaving her in her thoughts.

lili walks back into the house, only to be shoulder-swiped by sasha.

"excuse you." sasha spits, turning to look at lilith.

"i'm not doing this tonight." lilith shakes her head, walking to enter the living room.

"what? are you scared of me?" sasha gets a smirk on her face, seeing that chris and ridge just entered the room.

"i think we've established multiple times that i'm not scared of you." lilith replies, crossing her arms.

sasha attempts to throw a punch, to which ridge gasps trying to run to lilith's aid. chris grabs his arm and shakes his head, motioning to the girls.

lilith has grabbed sasha's wrist, bending it behind her back. she shoves her forward, making sasha stumble into the door.

sasha runs at lilith again, just as everyone else enters the kitchen. lili just moves out of the way, but when sasha runs back at her, she's knocked to the ground. sasha throws a couple weak punches, but lilith is quick to flip them over, her being on top.

she begins throwing punches, until it comes to mind that she isn't worth it. lili grabs sasha's wild arms and pins them above her head.

"get the fuck out of this house." lilith spits, quickly standing up off of sasha.

"are you just going to stand there, chris?" sasha cries, stumbling when she stands.

chris walks over, stopping in front of lilith, dapping her up. sasha scoffs, wiping the blood from underneath her nose and storming out of the house, climbing into her mercedes and leaving the sturniolo's.

"can we talk, please?" chris looks down at the girl while she asks. he nods and they walk outside together.

"listen, lilith. i want to-" chris begins, but lili is quick to interrupt.

"i want to know why you have been such an asshole since the party." lilith crosses her arms, sitting beside the boy.

"i- i'm..." chris stumbles over his words before he takes a deep breath. "i seen you kissing that guy." he avoids her eyes at all costs.

"what?" lilith recalls what nick and matt told her that happened at the party. "they didn't tell you?"

chris shakes his head, finally meeting lili's gaze.

"he got me really drunk and then forcefully kissed me. it only took a few seconds before i realized i didn't want to kiss him." lilith explains, dodging chris' look.

"oh, i had no idea that's how it was." chris puts his face in his hands. "i feel like such a douche now."

"wanna know what the worst part about it was?" lilith asks, picking at her fingernails. chris looks over at her. "the whole time i was with him, even through the kiss, i was thinking about you."

chris swallows deeply, and his eyes widen slightly.

"i don't exactly know why, but trevor really made an important point earlier." lilith finally looks over at chris, meeting his blue eyes.

"what are you guys? like... are you dating?" chris asks, looking up at the stars.

"no. that's what his point was about. he thought-"

"GUYS! COME IN! WE ARE GOING TO TRY AND FILM A CAR VIDEO!" nick yells from the front door, interrupting lilith and making chris sigh.

chris stands up and offers a hand to lilith, which she takes and walks with him. they let go before they walk in the house, though.

"how are all of us going to fit in the van?" lilith asks when she walks in the living room, immediately walking over to peyton and harley, pulling them into a loose hug.

"so i was thinking. ridge, grey, and flynn all in the very back. me, harley and peyton in the middle row. then lilith, matt and chris in the front." nick explains, attempting to use his hands to explain.

"how the hell is that going to work. me in the front with matt and chris?" lilith asks, looking over at matt, who has a mischievous smirk on his face, and chris, who is completely oblivious to what the others are scheming for him and lili.

"well, you and chris would have to share a seat since matt has the steering wheel in front of him and all." nick explains, getting the same look on his face as matt.

"why can't we just film inside?" ridge asks, not picking up on what nick is planning.

"because! ridge, filming car videos are our thing." nick gives him a look and flynn elbows him.

"ok?" he responds, rubbing his side where flynn hit him.

"let's just go try it out." they all leave the room, cramming into the minivan.

harley and peyton are sharing a seat while nick has his own in the middle. grey, ridge and flynn are crowded in the very back and matt is sitting comfortably in the front while chris and lilith try to find a comfortable spot for them both.

they eventually decide for lilith to sit closest to the console, laying on chris' chest. he wraps his arms around her waist, laying his interlocked hands on her stomach. she rests her legs up on the dash, having her knees pulled kind of close to her.

opening instagram, she decides to make a quick post.

matt throws a chip at lilith's face, making her scrunch her nose. she opens her eyes to see matt smirking mischievously and before she knows it, he throws another one. this time, she catches it in her mouth, laughing loudly as she does so. she puts her middle finger in his face before settling back into chris.

"WHATS UP FUCKERS!" lilith yells at the already recording camera. "oh wait, that's sadie crowell's thing." she thinks for a second. "WHAT THE FUCK IS UP YOUTUBE?"

the entire car has a smile on their face as she turns back to look at nick. "that is y'all's thing right?"

"no bitch. it's just what chris says every fucking video. annoying ass." nick responds before addressing the camera, explaining what they are doing.

"and we are all sharing seats because, as you can see, there's too many fucking people here." nick motions around him.

"i vote we kick ridge out. he's not needed anyways." lilith says loud enough for ridge to hear her.

"fuck you too, lala." ridge yells, pointing a middle finger up in the air.

"i love you." she positions her pointer and middle finger from both hands in a heart.

"anyways! we are doing a random video because this was very spontaneous and i didn't have time to post anything on the story."

"at sturniolo dot triplets!" lilith plugs. "and if you want to see any of our beautiful faces, the links will be on the screen." she turns around to look at nick again. "you can do that right?"

he nods. chris adjusts his grip on lilith, pulling her closer to him.
