"𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐋𝐘?" 

Both staring at each other dumbfounded, she quickly recovered "so you're following me now?" with an eyebrow raised

"I live here. It seems like you're the one who's stalking me"

Scoffing at his statement Amelie retorts "As if. I have better things to do than st-"

"Amelie, you came! You've met Conrad too!" Jeremiah grinned as he approached the door. He had the tendency to be happy almost all the time, how are they even related

"Wait, you're Conrad?" Amelie asked even more shocked than before. She swore this many coincidences in one day couldn't be possible. 

Kara has told Amelie countless stories about the mysterious and what used to be a charming Conrad. Yet she couldn't wrap her head around the fact that this whole time he was the same boy she's already met as a child and this morning. 

Jeremiah cut in "yup. do you guys already know each other?" He glanced between the two, suddenly aware of the awkward position he was in as they were in some sort of staring contest trance. 

Breaking off the eye contact, Conrad snapped his head to Jeremiah replying "no, we've never met." She wasn't sure if she should feel offended that he was treating her like a stranger. Not that it was completely incorrect.

"then why is our guest still at the door?" he chuckled before grabbing the door from Conrad to open it wider and letting the girl in.

Like she had a sixth sense, Kara ran down the stairs as if she could tell Amelie arrived as soon as the door opened. "Lia!" Within seconds, Amelie was tackled in a hug right before they did their personal handshake

It consisted of a high five up top and down low, then a vertical fist bump up in an upward downward motion followed by a regular fist bump and finally finish it off by grabbing each others fingers in a swift hand shake to pull each other in for a "bro-hug" to finally bump the side of each others hips against each other with sass.

It was a childish greeting but they loved it.

Pulling apart, they finally squealed in excitement about already seeing each other this often during the summer. It was almost as if they forgot about the two boys still there

Jeremiah cleared his throat and pretended to yawn then check the invisible watch on his wrist as a joking way of asking them to move out of the way so that he can leave, Conrad following behind him impassively. They didn't notice the subtle glance Conrad gave Amelie before walking way.

The two girls ran upstairs to Kara's room so that they can gossip before dinner started.

"you look effortlessly hot" Kara commented while she lounged on her bed and Amelie fixing her hair in the full length mirror before walking over and laying down next to Kara.
