Chapter 47: The Truth part 1.2.

Lillian's POV:

Elsa and I spent the next few weeks together. She was still not mentally stable enough to go back to Mill Brook with the others. But they all called every night to update us with news. One of the pieces of news was that we still didn't know what was wrong with Glacier! They did tests. But nothing. Dad was anxious all the time about news on her problems. Not even Inkwell knew what happened.

"Why don't they know?" Asked Elsa at the time when Dad returned from Mill Brook the night Glacier got hurt.

"They didn't know exactly what happened!" Dad had told us. "We have to find out soon! All we know is that her hand might be damaged."

We both sighed at this. We wanted to know!

***

I was with Elsa one Friday evening in her and Glacier's room. We were playing on their  Xbox. Elsa was very good at the games. I struggled to play some of them. I had a blue controller in my hand, while Elsa had a pink one. We were playing Forza Motorsport 5.

"Wow," I said as an achievement popped up. "You have got this, Els!"

The fourteen year old girl grinned. She high-fived me.

"You are good too, Lilly!" She told me.

I put my controller down.

"Are you sure?" I asked, smiling despite feeling unsure.

"Of course you are," said Elsa turning off the Xbox. "It's nearly bed time, now!"

"But I don't want to go to bed yet," I said. "I don't want you to be alone!"

"I won't be," said Elsa. "Button's here."

She tickled the sleeping dog's belly.

"Do you think Glacier will be able to play Forza?" I asked as Elsa picked up the controllers and putting them away.

"I will help Glacie play," Elsa  said. "It's not that hard. There are barriers so she can't go off track. Maybe crash into things on the track. But it's easy for her. I'm sure she'll get the hang of it."

I stared at her and saw the circles under her eyes. My heart went out to her.

"What's wrong?" Elsa asked.

"I'm sorry about your family," I said. "It must of been horrible."

The blond nodded.

"I did find it hard," she admitted. "Very hard. I still have nightmares."

"Explains the circles under your eyes," I said. "Do you miss him? I don't want to upset you. Just want to understand."

Elsa nodded. "I know he's with me, still," she admittted. "But doesn't mean I miss him."

"I wasn't alive when that happened to your dad," I said putting an arm round her. "Loosing someone you love is tricky."

Elsa noticed my look.

"What's going on in your head, little miss Baker?" She asked me.

"I feel bad for you," I admitted. Not that I have lost someone yet!"

"What do you mean?" Elsa asked.

"I could have lost Glacier," I admitted. "But ... um ... how to say it?"

Elsa hugged me.

"Is this about Wolfie?" She asked.

I nodded. "I might of not known her as long as Glace, but doesn't mean I will miss her! Right?"

Elsa held me. "She protected you and Glacier!" She said gently. "Of course you will miss her."

"Is that your phone?" I asked as something vibrated near us.

Elsa nodded and picked up her phone.

"Hello?" She said into the phone.

"Hello, Els!" Came Glacier's voice. "Ouch!"

"Your hand hurts?" Guessed Elsa. "Put me on loud speaker."

Glacier did so, I heard Shelby making her cute noises.

"Aww," I said.

"Hey, Lilly!" Said Glacier on the other end. "Looking after Elsa for us?"

"Of course," I said. "She needed cheering up."

"I still don't know what happened to me that day," sighed my big sister. "But it was great that Scarlet called you to listen in."

"We heard every word," said Elsa. "I am grateful that you stood up for me, Glace! Really I am!"

"I know," said Glacier. "She was so mean about you. Arianna told me the truth and it made me feel sick to my stomach. How dare she do that?"

"You get why Raven got as upset that day when you found out she escaped?" Elsa asked. "Poor girl!"

"I gave her lots of hugs!" Said Glacier. "Anna made sure she kept away from sharp objects. I got in contact with Kyla and she told me about that time and how Raven really did struggle. Poor thing."

Shelby was barking on the other end. Button, who had been asleep at Elsa's feet got up and whimpered.

"Aww," said Glacier. "Hey, Button, girl!"

"Is Raven there with you, Glace?" Elsa asked, tickling Button's ears.

"She's currently out at a club with Anna!" Said Glacier. "Like what we did. Think it is swimming tonight? Not sure!"

"Yeah," said Scarlet's voice on the other end. "That's correct. Hey Elsa and Lilly! Are you both okay?"

"Yeah!" We said.

We all were silent while Shelby did her talking. Button whimpered again.
