Oliver's pov

I got home before 5pm, needed a longer walk.

I had this situation with Lily in my head all the time

Why did I even ask about it?

I felt her tense up, but she managed to hide it pretty quickly and show that it was nothing

I have no idea what's going on or why Chloe and those two make her react like that

I wonder what had to happen to end a friendship that seemed to last a long time

And who ended it anyway, whose fault it was

But I can't ask Lily, we're not at the stage yet for her to tell me about her problems, I can see she's not ready for this

These thoughts haunt me, so I pull out my phone and text the guys


boys

Guys!

Aaron

What's up?

Mattheo

What

How much did I fuck up with Lily?

Mattheo

What do you mean?

When I asked about Chloe and those two others

She said it was nothing, but I don't think she was sincere

Aaron

Sorry dude, but I'm not surprised

What do you mean?

Aaron

I can't believe you don't remember

Can you guys get to the point!?

Mattheo

Those two you're talking about are in the past for Lily

Just like Chloe anyway

How would I know about it?

Aaron

Do you remember last year's Halloween party?

oh fuck...

Aaron

Exactly

I fucked up the whole thing

Mattheo

No shit

Couldn't any of you stop me before I said it?

Aaron

How were we supposed to know you'd suddenly blurt out about her dead friend

and a guy from prison

And what am I supposed to do now?

I've already apologized, even twice, and she says it's nothing

Mattheo

Give her time and don't mention it again

If she wanted to, she would have started talking herself
