'Hey' Amanda says, she sits up

'Hey' Savannah says, she sits down in front of her and they kiss, Savannah can tell Amanda isn't into the kiss

'What's wrong?' Savannah asks

'I don't know why but ever since my dad has been in the hospital I just been depressed and you know me I'm not like that at all' Amanda says

'Right, what can i do to get you out of this funk?' Savannah asks

'If you magic powers to make my dad health' Amanda says, Savannah smiles

Trust me if i could then I would' Savannah says

'I know you would' Amanda says, then her phone starts ringing she looks at it

'It's my mom sorry' Amanda says

'It's fine' Savannah says, Amanda answers it

'Hey, how's dad doing?, really that's good right?, when can he come home?, Friday ok that's good I'm just glad that he's finally is getting release, no Ava is with Sava, Sava is helping Ava with her math she's having some trouble with it, no I'm not alone Sava is here, i can ask her after I talk to you and text you her answer, ok goodnight love you too' Amanda says, she hangs up and looks at Savannah

'I guess you do have magic powers because my dad is getting better and he might be getting released on Friday' Amanda says, Savannah smiles

'that's good' Savannah says

'Yeah it is' Amanda says

'What is it that you have to ask me and text your mom the answer?' Savannah asks

'She asked if you was going to stay the night?' Amanda asks

'Do you want me to?' Savannah asks

'You don't have to if you don't want to' Amanda says, Savannah smiles

'I will, just let me call one of my mom's first' Savannah says

'Ok' Amanda says, Savannah gets up and walks out of the bedroom, Amanda texts her mom Savannah's answer, then Savannah walks back in

'Mona said that she's fine with it and she's going to tell Aria' Savannah says, she sits down in front of her

'Ok, i wanna take a shower but I'm so tired that I might fall asleep' Amanda says

'Well I would say I can be in there with you but i don't want you to be uncomfortable' Savannah says

'Well that has never stop us before' Amanda says, she gets up

'I guess not' Savannah says

One of them will stay with the other one if one of them was tired, it was a good system that they had

Ava and Claire are at the tree house they just got done studying Ava lays down on the couch

'What time is it?' Ava asks, Claire looks at her phone

'Almost 8:30pm' Claire says

'Ok good I have an hour to kill before I have to go back home and get ready for bed' Ava says

'I don't know if you noticed or not but all four of us got together on the same night' Claire says

'That's weird' Ava says, she sits up

'Do you mind taking Me somewhere real quick?' Ava asks

'Sure, where to?' Claire asks

'Abby's grave if that's ok with you though?' Ava asks, Claire smiles

'Why not you don't get to visit that often because of other things, get your stuff' Claire says, Ava smiles

'Yay, thank you' Ava says, she kisses her, they get their stuff and heads out

-

They walk up to Abby's grave

'Wow, its been awhile since I have been out I forgot where it was at' Ava says

'I haven't been here since last year and I still know where it's at' Claire says, Ava looks at her

'Ha ha ha' Ava says, Claire chuckles, they sit down in front of her grave

'I thought graveyards was scary during the day' Ava says

'I know, i don't know which one is more creepy during the day or during the night' Claire says

'Both' Ava says

'Yeah probably' Claire says

'It's funny how you have a lot in your mind on your way here but when you get here it all goes out of your head' Ava says

'I know' Claire says

'I feel it's my fault in a way because she asked me if she could spend the night but my parents said no maybe if i seek her in she wouldn't be dead' Ava says, she starts crying, Claire looks at her and hugs her

'No, no it's not your fault' Claire says, she looks at her

'Look at me Please' Claire says, Ava looks at her

'I hate to say but even if she did spend the night, either two things would have happened he would have came to your house and killed everybody there or he could have waited until she got back home the next day, he said that at his trial' Claire says

'Oh my god' Ava says

'I know, and I know it sucks as hell that she died but I think Abby will agree with me that it would be better that if she and her mom died instead of her family and you and your whole family too' Claire says

'Both of them are not good but I get your point though' Ava says

'Hopefully I don't die tonight by Abby's ghost by saying that but if i do it was nice knowing you' Claire says, Ava Chuckles

'I think that Abby will understand what you're at' Ava says

'Have you meet Abby?' Claire asks

'Oh yeah, good point' Ava says, Claire chuckles

They sit at Abby's grave until 9:30pm talking to her and to each other then Claire takes Ava home
