Isla had come up to a fork in the road, she had no idea what to do, In a futile attempt to distract herself, she looked to Bill "weird question, but do you have any strawberries? im totally craving some right now" she smirked as he looked at her in confusion. His eyes floating back to the game he was playing, distracted he replied "uhhh yea, we should have some in the fridge, should i take you to the kitchen?"
"NO-" she shouted impulsively.. His head swivvled round in shock- "sorry i had something in my thoat.." ill go myself its fine.

Is it possible for a person to feel like they did the right thing, but still be riddled with guilt? Because if it is, this was definetely the perfect way to describe Islas situation.
Just as she was putting her phone on silent, Bill burst in, then walked over and grabbed Isla by the shoulders gasping, as he pretended to pull her down, "saved your life!" he laughed. Shoving Bill. Isla giggled "piss off Bill"
Bill had come in to tell Isla that George and Gustav had showed up with one of their friends. In the back of her mind, Isla wished that shed gone with Tom. It wasnt that she disliked Gustav or George, but she liked spending time with just Bill. Gustav was actually pretty funny.
The two of them headed back to the living room, where the trio was sat waiting. Isla trailed behind Bill, She had a feeling like she was intruding, even though she was sure Bill wanted to be with her more than those boys.
As Bill Headed round the corner, into the living room, Isla decided to hang back for a second and fix her hair. she overheard something thst made her hold her breath, a question she had been dying to ask, It was George asking "Dude, why are you and Tom even arguing? He wouldnt even come with us here"
Isla listened in
Gustav answered, sounding bored, "Ive told you a hundred times, it was about that-" A pause left the room in silence, almost as if someone had whispered to Gustav, or maybe motioned for him to shut up. Deciding not to hide round the corner, Isla walked in, Lying "sorry, my mum called." She sat down next to Bill, as the boys continued in some random conversation about football.
Gustav and Georges friend was sat opposite her, He had dark skin, and curly hair. Him and Isla seamed to be the only ones without some weird obsession with football, as those two werent speaking. The group chatted for about 10 minutes until Isla couldnt hold it anymore. She turned to Bill "Bill, why are you and Tom arguing? i was just thinking about it now."
Isla was smart, shed said it in a way that rolled off the converation as just some innocent question, and loud enough for his friends to hear, she knew rhat he couldnt just shrug it off in front of his mates.

BIll looked irritated "its just a stupid disagreement, siblings argue all the time Isla." Gustav looked at Isla saying "do you have any sisters Isla?" The boys laughed
your not getting with them either way, mate
Isla answered "yep, but they live in the dominican republic, sorry youll have to fuck George instead"
Everyone in the room laughed. Through his chuckle The boy with curly hair quesioned "the dominican republic huh? Hablas espanol? (do you speak spanish)" Isla grinned at the boy "si, de donde eres?(yea, where are you from?)" He beamed "morocco"
By now, She'd noticed Gustav frowning at her, Suddenly, his expression changed into a smile, he must have though of something "OH SHIT? YOUR THAT GIRL FROM THE PARTY?" he shouted
am i that forgettable?
inturrupting the conversation that Isla was very much dreading, Tom came through the door, slamming it on his way in. "
