-The Loophole-

Now We've got Problems

(A/N): Short chapter warning!⚠️Also, my Wattpad had an update, and now, any time I try to type, it jumps my cursor to the bottom of the screen. Another thing it did was that any time I try to use the Bold or Italic setting, it changes the format of the entire text. Happen to anyone else, or just me?🤨

I pulled into the driveway before getting out of my car and turning it off, a prominent smirk on my face. I looked over to see Inza, sitting on the porch.

"Hey, Inz," I began. She laid eyes on me, a little pissed.

"Where were you?"

"I was, uh.. doing things.."

"Bullshit, you have that I-just-did-something-I've-always-wanted-to face. You were having sex with Bular, weren't you?" My nose scrunched up, a little uncomfortable with the tone she took.

"Let's.. go in the house," I went up and unlocked the door, pulling her in and shutting it behind us. "I totally did," I replied, my voice full of giddiness as I tried to regain my excitement, "and it was great."

"Via, I'm happy for you. But what I'm not happy with right now is that you ditched me." She crossed her arms. "I mean, this's just like when you were with Shannon." My face fell into disappointment. She knew that was a sensitive topic for me.

"This is not like when I was with Shannon."

"Oh, so you didn't know that we were supposed to all train today? And that I didn't text you more than five separate times, asking where you were?"

"Okay, I didn't see your texts yet," I responded, "and I have been to Trollmarket once already today. In fact, I think I started to solve the Draal problem, but I'm not entirely sure

"Via, if you didn't wanna come back to the market. You should've texted me."

"It's not that I didn't want to, I..." I facepalmed. "I just forgot! And I kind of.. made a business-like arrangement that led to this."

"A business arrangement?"

"Business-like. Bular.. kinda.. sorta... had broken into the hospital room--"

"So, you didn't tell me where you were, ditched me for a guy that did something for you, and left me alone with Jim and his new 'friend'."

"No! ...Yes?--No?! It's not like that!"

"If you and the guys were planning on icing me out, you could've just told me."

"I'm not icing you out! I can't have a break from the chaos for once?? Okay, you want to know everything?? Bular broke into my room, and then we ended up having a conversation, which resulted in the knowledge that he's tied to Gunmar magically, so that's why he keeps killing the Trollhunters. He just wants help and to see his little brother again, who is not very nice, might I add. He gave me a letter to give to his brother, so I did that, and he thanked me for it. That is what happened."

"Okay, but you could've told me earlier though if you needed a break. You know I would've let you go do something and calm down if you just told me you needed to. Via, you're my best friend. I help you, you help me. But if you need help or a night on your own, you need to tell me.. Especially since you left me with the three stooges."

"Okay, I get that. It's just that first off, we're adults now. We don't need to reiterate our every move to each other; I'm allowed to forget things every now and then, especially with my ADHD. Second, who the fuck are you talking about?" She ignored my question.
