Florence's Pov

"You stole my woman! Where I call from, we call that a love crime." I walked into the lab after their stupid plan failed, "It's not my fault I look brave under lockers. I was trying to help you." I mentally groaned as Adam continued. "How? By saying you'd go to the dance with her?" Leo barked back full of anger. 

Adam moved towards one of Mr Davenports keyboard, "I'm keeping my options open. It's the first a girl's ever been interested in me, and it's kind of nice." 

 "Ooh! It's kind of nice 'cause she has--" my eyes widened as Leo jumped on Adam's back. "Is this a private moment I can come back later" I pointed to the door. "Florence this isn't the time to joke around this is serious" Leo dangled his legs on Adam's back as he pointed to me. "Stop it, little man! You're gonna hurt yourself!" As soon as a laugh escaped my mouth I slapped my hand over my mouth when I got looks from Leo. 

"Hey, Hey, Hey! No! Hey! Florence help me calm Leo down" Chase lightly tugged on my arm as we grabbed Leo off of Adam. 

Chase stepped in, "Guys, this is getting out of hand. It's like watching a chihuahua fight a horse. Is Danielle really worth all of this?" 

"See he get its- I mean Adam you should find another girl a better girl that Leo isn't obsessed with since for like two years" I corrected myself once I noticed the looks from the two boys. Adam saw the sadden expression on my face "Hey, all is fair in love and fake locker accidents. Fine. He can have her." 

"WHAT WHY DO YOU ONLY LISTEN TO HER!" Chase yelled once he realized that his brother listens to me more. "Because look at her she could kick our butts plus she packs me snacks why else would I listen to her" Adam put his arm over my shoulder as he whispered to me, "He just jealous that you're better than him" Chase glared at the both of us before throwing his hands up in defeat. 

"Can we get back to the trouble in hand Adam It's too late. The damage is done. I'll never love again." I walked over to Leo putting my arm on his shoulder as Chase spoke, "Leo, I'll talk to Danielle. I'll convince her that Adam's not an option and that she should be with you." Adam looked annoyed with the idea, "Yeah, go to the dance with her, but everybody's gonna think you're dating your babysitter." 

I saw the twitch in his eyes as he jumped onto Adam's back again. I used my reflexes to hold back Leo, "It's okay guys I'm fine" Leo kicked and screamed trying to get loose. "Oh that's great Florence do you have any more of those delicious candy." I nodded my head, trying to point towards my bag. "You're a lifesaver Florence"

I walked out of my dance class waving to them as I left once I bumped into someone, "I'm so sorry I wasn't paying attention and-" I started rambling and she interrupted me. "No no, It's me Florence. Bree." I lightly hugged her picking up my bag I previously dropped.

"What are you doing here?" I questioned the girl in front of me. "Well it's my first dance and I wanted to know if you would help me get ready it's okay though if you don't want to I'll totally understand" She scratched the back of her head as I felt the nervousness radiate off of her. 

"Of course I'll help you. You know you can just come over it's not the big of a deal to me or my aunt I'm sure she'll love you" I fixed her light brown hair as we walked to the bus station.

"I know this is a bad topic but what was it like living in a basement for all of your life" I noticed the hesitation on her face as I realized what I just asked, "I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable you don't have to tell me I'm so sorry" I rambled hoping she wasn't mad at the rude question. 

"No no Florence I'm not mad or upset I just never really thought about it until you asked it never really came up" She mumbled watching the cars go by us as the bus stopped in front of us. "Well it's a good thing you have all night to think about how you'll answer it one day" I grabbed her arm gently pulling her inside the bus giving her a side of my headphones to listen to music. 

"Who are we listening to? I love her voice it's so-" She stopped trying to find the word to describe her, "Angelic" She smiled at me as I finished her sentence. "It's Lana Del Rey the song is Dark Paradise I think" I flipped over my phone and nodded after seeing I guessed the song correctly. 

Once we got off the bus I walked over to my house already knowing it wouldn't be as big as she's used to, "Woah Florence your house is so cozy" I thought about the compliment for a while appreciating what she told me. "You would be surprised to see how cozy my room is" The brunette girl ran up my stairs tripping over a black box falling face first. "I'M SO SORRY BREE I SWEAR I PUT THAT AWAY ALREADY I'M SORRY ARE YOU OKAY?" I ran over to the girl hearing her mumble "I'm fine" She got off the floor with a weird expression knowing what would come next. 

"So what's in the box that happens to be placed in the middle of your room" I knew the time would come when someone would ask the question I've been fearing to answer. I grabbed the box and open it to reveal the dark bow and arrow I previously brought with me once. "Woah it looks so magical! Where did you get it?" I felt my heart drop as her words came  out of her mouth. 

"Well uh it was my dads originally but on a trip he took with this box with his boss and younger brother he never came back the only thing that was left of him was the bow and arrow he taught me how to use it and trained me everyday so I guess he counts for something" I slowly told her a part of the long story on how my dad left but she deserved the basics of it. 

"I'm so sorry Florence I should've never asked" She hugged me once I finished my long story short

"It's okay Bree you don't have to feel bad at all I grieved, I accepted I did every stage of grief and more there's nothing to feel sorry for" I told her making her feel better letting out a little laugh. "You should get going Bree it's pretty late and I don't think you should keep Mr. Davenport waiting" I hummed giving her a light hug as she zoomed out of my house.
