[Disclaimer] SM owns everything Twilight, but at least Lilly is all mine.

[A/N] This little missing scene takes place in chapter 58. Ever wondered why Lilly punched Alec? Just read on…

Trying to get into the mind of a little child isn't an easy thing to do. So, I really hope this chapter doesn't suck too much.

**Chapter3**

Lilly

"Hey carrot-head," he whispered into my ear while I tried my best to ignore him. It was so mean that I was the only girl who was forced to sit next to a boy. Anyone knew that boys were gross and Alec was the worst of them.

When he realized that I wasn't going to answer him he pulled on one of my braids.

"Ouch!"

"You're such a stupid crybaby."

"Lilly, Alec can't the two of you be silent for five minutes?" our teacher snarled at us and I instantly shrugged back. It was so obvious that she didn't like me. Maybe that was because she made me sit next to him.

"Miss Young, he's teasing me all the time. Why can't I sit next to Jane again?"

"Tease him back." she suggested before she sipped on a glass of water on her desk.

"And I won't let you sit next to Jane because if I do, you and she are going to talk the entire day."

"Miss Young?" Jane asked her, while her lips twitched into a smile.

"Maybe I could sit next to my brother. You can be sure that he won't be trying to tease me and also that I'm not going to talk to him."

Jane turned around and when her eyes met mine, I nodded my head. It was so nice that she was willing to do that for me. She hated her brother more than anything.

"Non é vero, stronzo?"

"Stop talking French to him in class. You know that you shouldn't do it."

"That's Italian." Alec told her, while he started nibbling on the end of his pencil.

Miss Young sighed and rubbed her forehead with her thumb.

"Okay, if it ends this constant tantrum I'm having with the three of you – Jane, you can swap your seat with Lilly so that we can go on with the class."

I stood up from my seat but when I wanted to take my drawing block Alec grabbed it and giggled after taking a look at it.

"You're so stupid, carrot-head. Didn't you hear her when she told us what to draw?"

"Give that back to me." I whispered, trying not to get Miss Young's attention again.

"Give it back to her – now." Jane snarled at him when she was standing next to us.

He held it above his head until Jane kicked him against his shin and he dropped it on the floor.

"Ouch! That really hurt, Jane." He mumbled, his voice cracking from the tears he was trying to hold back.

"Now, who's the crybaby?"

"I hate the two of you."

"Alec! Jane! Lilly! Aren't you able to swap your seats without causing noise?"

"But Miss Young," I started hesitantly.

"He's making fun of my drawing."

"Alec, stop laughing about her drawing. I don't think that yours is going to be so much better." She sighed deeply and emptied the glass of water on her desk.

"I'll be right back and when I return I hope that you'll manage to keep quiet for a few moments."

Jane pinched Alec's arm when she sat down next to him and he pulled his chair to the outer corner of the desk. I wished I had been smart enough to do that when he was mean to me.

"Your carrot-head friend is too stupid to draw her family." He told Jane who tried to kick his foot underneath the table.

"Stop calling me carrot-head all the time."

"But your hair looks like carrots in the sun. Can't you see that too, Jane?"

"Lilly's hair is so pretty. You are just jealous that yours look like brown sludge."

"Better sludge than yucky carrots."

"Maybe you'll stop being mean to Lilly when I burn yours down while you're sleeping."

"You wouldn't dare…,"

"Don't be so sure about that."

He crossed his hands in front of his chest and smirked.

"Why didn't you draw your real family? Are you too stupid to do that?"

"But I…I,"

"She drew her mommy with her nanny…not her daddy."

"That's my aunt. I don't have a nanny."

"And your aunt is living with you and your mommy? Where is your daddy?"

I started biting my fingernails until I tasted blood on the tip of my tongue. Why could I never stop doing that? It made my nails look so ugly and I wanted to have them look pretty with pink nail polish like Auntie Rosie wore it all the time.

"He's in Alaska."

"Really? Are you going to move there too, carrot?"

Suddenly I felt cold although it still was so warm that the rays of the sun reflected in my hair. It really looked like rusty carrots in the sun. So ugly….I wanted it to be blond, just like Jane's. Should I ask mommy if I could dye it?

"You shouldn't move to Alaska, Lilly. My daddy says they eat raw fish down there."

She wrinkled her nose in disgust and I felt my stomach heave. Fish was disgusting enough when it was cooked. But raw? That sounded so yucky.

"My mommy says, I'm going to stay here with her and my aunt."

"That's good. I don't want you to move away. We could never see each other again if you lived in Alaska."

"Maybe you should move to Alaska too, sorella."

"Maybe I'm going to drown you in the ocean the next time we're in Italy, if you don't stop picking on Lilly all the time."

"I pick on her whenever I want to. She's a crybaby and a carrot-head."

"She's not a crybaby."

"Oh sure she is. She cries every time when someone yells at her. Maybe that's why her daddy moved to Alaska. He didn't want to listen to her clamor all the time."

"You are so mean. He didn't…he….he…," I stumbled out hesitantly. Hadn't mommy and Auntie Ali told me that it wasn't my fault that he was in Alaska now? What if they had lied to me about that?

"Are you too stupid to speak without sounding like a moron? He….he…he…..God, how dumb are you?"

My hands started quivering and when another evil grin flashed over Alec's face I couldn't fight the urge to hit him straight on the nose with my fist. It gave an awkward cracking noise when my hand connected with his face. Blood trickled down his jaw and it would have been a pretty sight for me if my own hand hadn't hurt that much suddenly.
