•Lilian's POV•
Over the past few weeks, we've all gotten closer, especially Emma and Violet.
I've been mostly avoiding Emma when I can and only talking to her when we're in a group.
She doesn't make any snarky comments when other people are around so that's good.
"Lilian, you good?" Emma asked from her desk beside me.
"Hmm yeah, why?"
"You were just looking funny, I guess,"
"Thank you, for that," I say sarcastically.
"Oh no problem, wouldn't want someone seeing you like that, now would we," she replete clearly not catching the sarcasm in my voice.
"So, I was thinking we should totally hang out like we haven't done that since we went shopping for ever ago," She suggests.
"Oh, I don't know, I'm really busy with work and school," I lie.
"Please it'll be so much fun I promise," she begs.
"Laura and Violet, would they be there right?" I ask. The only way I'm hanging out with her is if they are there.
"Totally, I'll invite them over," she says.
"Ok, so your house," I ask.
"Yeah, does today work for you," she asked.
"Sure,"
"Ok I'll text Laura and Violet later," she says turning back to her worksheet.

"Are you sure you want to go to her house?"
"I don't really have much of a choice,"
"Yes you do, I can say I fell down the stairs and need my lovely daughter to come be by my side and nurse back to health,"
"Dad that's not going to work, but I love the enthusiasm,"
"I think it would have worked, but whatever,"
"Ok, I have to go but I'll be back soon,"
"Have fun, be safe and I love you,"
"Love you too, bye,"
I pulled up to Emma's house twenty minutes later. Her house was mostly white with a bit of black accents touches, it has a very modern style and looked to be a new build.
"Lilian, come on it," Emma shouted opening the door wider.
"You have a lovely house," I compliment.
"Yeah, it's pretty nice,"
"When do Laura and Violet get here?" I asked taking off my jacket and shoes.
"Around 5 I think,"
I glance down at my phone, 4:30, ok, it's fine I just have to survive thirty more minutes, I can do that I'll just make small talk.
Me: Girl you better get here soon
Laura: Get where soon?
Me: Emma's house
Laura: We're supposed to meet at 5 right?
Me: 4:30
Laura: She told me 5
Me: I'm going to die
Laura: You'll be fine, we'll be there soon
Me: You better
