who cares about the spelling mistakes, does it really matter?
we should be focusing on the story like the plot and what the story is about not about the stupid spelling mistakes
(sorry got a bit angry there)

“I couldn’t tell you why she felt that way. She just felt it everyday. And… I couldn’t help her, and I just had to watch her make the same mistakes again.” The short girl with light brown hair wiped black tears from her cheeks as she looked at the picture of her best friend on the leaflet. Her boyfriend kissed her forehead in an attempt to comfort her that he knew would fail.
The sky was light. It was unusually sunny for a funeral. In all the movies that she had watched, the rain had poured during this scene. But Lilly would have wanted it like this. Beautiful, and a bit ironic. The mourning of a tragedy, and the birds celebrated their happiest time of the year.
“Take me! Nobody’s home!”
Avril closed her eyes and she heard Lilly’s final scream, then the loud honk, then the two thuds… One as the car hit the 19-year-old’s body, and the second as she hit the ground.
“Lilly! What the hell are you—…oh my God!”
Lilly, the person who meant the most in the world, who had been missing for 3 months, lay dead on the street in front of Avril’s house. Lilly, the little girl who Avril had spent every summer with for 14 years, was gone forever. The memory of the way her blood clashed with her dark red hair would never leave Avril’s mind.
With blurred vision, Avril looked at the picture of the beautiful teenager on top of the coffin. Next to it was the poem that Lilly had sent to her parents not too long before her suicide.
“I want to go home, but nobody’s home
That’s why I lie here, broken inside
With no place to go
To dry my eyes, broken inside
I’ll open my eyes, and look outside
And find the reasons why”
The same thing. Lilly had always said those same two words to Avril.
“Nobody’s home, Avril. Nobody’s home.”
“What do you mean? Your dad’s always home.”
“You don’t understand.”
Why hadn’t she understood? Why couldn’t she understand now? “Why can’t I understand? Why did this happen?”
“No one understands it, babe. You’re not alone.” Deryck gave her a gentle squeeze.
“She was alone. That’s why she’s gone.”
“And that’s not your fault. You tried to be there for her.”
Avril took the long letter she had received from Lilly out of her pocket and unfolded it, and her tears quickly spattered across the page.
I want to come home, Avril. It’s so cold. I sit here alone on the street for hours everyday. I write letters to you in my journal all the time. It’s all I have besides my guitar, my clothes, my shoes, and a small plastic bag. All the money I brought with me ran out weeks ago. I’ve had to beg all day just so I’ll be able to buy breakfast tomorrow. And tomorrow it will be the same. I can’t come home. I can’t ever come home. I hurt everywhere but I can’t come home. Nobody’s home.
“Thank you for being there.” Lilly’s mother said, choked up. Avril could barely hear her voice. “If it hadn’t been for you, we would’ve lost her ages ago. She felt so alone without you.”
“I was there. I was always there. Why is she gone now?”
“I… I don’t know.”
“Mom knows why.” Lilly whispered softly.
“Tell me.”
“I can’t.” Lilly walked away, the unexplained black eye darkening her face.
It hit Avril then. She turned her head and spotted Lilly’s father. As he looked upon the coffin, large tears spilled down his cheeks and he mouthed, thinking no one was watching, “What have I done?”
“What have I done to deserve this? I tried. I tried so hard to please them. Why is it this way? Why does it hurt so much? Why is everything wrong?” Lilly was crying again.
“What are you talking about?”
“You don’t understand.”
“Help me to.”
“I can’t. It hurts too much.”
“I’m sorry, I need to have some time to think. This hurts too much.” Lilly’s mother put her hand over her mouth and walked away. Her cover-up had been washed away by her tears. Avril could see a shiner under her eye.
Everything clicked. Avril snapped.
The service ended and Lilly’s coffin was lowered into the grave.
Avril walked up to Lilly’s father, holding on tight to Deryck hand, fear and anger coursing through her veins.
“I understand.” She said, glaring up at the man with the huge fists, “Nobody who wasn’t a complete scumbag was home.”
Then she slapped him. Hard.
He held his cheek, shocked.
“This is HIS FAULT!” She screamed. “This abusive dipshit is the reason she’s dead!”
Then she ran. Hand in hand, Avril and Deryck ran as far from the sickening scene as they could get.
“I can’t go home. I don’t want to go home anymore. Nobody’s home.”

That was really sweet. I like fan fics that are just simple and like a diary entry. I never write them that way, but I love reading them.

LOVE IT! I don't give a shit about the mispellings. You're a great writer, you're always been and you're always going to be.
The plot it's great and it's the best until now (Seyary's fanfic it's great too).

Keep up, Lilja! You rock!

I'll vote on you... I can promise you that...
