"you can all put your bags over there." i say, pointing to the corner of the room. once they are all walking over to place their things down, i glance at matt and we make eye contact. i give him a silent look, asking 'should we tell them now?'

and he gives me a simple nod of 'yes'.

"guys uh.. ava and i have something to tell you." he says, as everyone fixates their eyes on him. i can sense how nervous matt is feeling, and start rubbing his back a bit. i motion for them to all sit on the couch, giving one more glance to matt before walking.

"okay.." rayna says, grinning ear to ear. once we all sit down i place i hand on matt's knee, lightly squeezing it for reassurance not just for him, but for me too.

i inhale a deep breath, glancing around at all the awaiting eyes.

"we're- we're dating." matt says, as i see shocked, and confused faces.

"what- since when? tell us !!" elijah yells excitingly, getting up from where he's sat. he eagerly starts shaking my shoulders, rushing me to answer all of his questions.

"uh- since like.. yesterday." i laugh, but i stop as my gaze is now on adriana. her blonde hair up in a high ponytail was now loose and drooping a bit, almost like her whole appearance was now down, and angry or sad. her eyes burning holes in to the ground as she leans forward, her face cradled in her hands.

"i'm so happy for you guys !" adriana suddenly looks up, smiling widely. as i look over i can see the non-genuine expression in her eyes.

i smile at her, not wanting her to be upset this whole night.

"alright, should we do a target run?" i ask, and everyone immediately agrees.
