*Kira's pov*

Aiden closes the door behind him.

I take a quick look at the trio.

Malia hadn't slept at all.

Her under eyes were red, bags hanging off her face.

Theo's eyes were closed, trying to regain balance.

He looked like he cried himself to sleep.

He was so dehydrated, that he couldn't keep his balance.

AIden had his eyes cast to the floor.

Hands gripping his pants.

He looked so nervous.

Like if you asked him what was wrong, all that was worrying him would spill out.

Lydia sits down on the couch, eyes half closed.

Aiden stands in front of her.

"Give me a second."

I heard him mumble into her head.

She nodded and opened her eyes.

Liam stands next to the door.

I walk over and give him a look of confusion.

"They're hiding something."

"Liam."

"No, I'm serious. He left in the middle of the night. To watch the sunrise? Bullshit."

"Liam."

I say again. It's a warning this time.

He makes eye contact with me.

His eyes soften.

"Fuck."

He breathes out.

I lean against the wall next to him.

"You think they're okay?"

I turn to look at the group,

They're whispering and rolling their eyes at each other.

"No."

"I think they need us right now more than ever."

Lydia stands slowly and walks over to me and Liam.

"Aiden hasn't slept a wink since yesterday."

She states.

She knows what we were talking about.

"Malia's picking at her Hale tattoo and Theo is biting his thumb."

Lydia says, keeping her voice down.

Lydia knew every nervous trait we all had.

She could hear it a mile away.

So it didn't surprise me that she knew what the trio was doing.

What we didn't know, was what was bothering them.

Lydia takes out her phone.

Her fingers fly across the screen.

Liam and my phone buzz.
