"Matteo, can I ask you a question?" Lilly asked, looking up at him.
"That was a question." he joked.
She giggled, "I mean a different question, just something that I'm curious about."
He nodded, "What is your question then?"
"Why do you call me 'flo...

"How are you?" Aria asked calmly, almost acting as if nothing had just happened.
Lilly took a quick glance at Cloud and then over to where Antonio was before she answered her question, "I'm doing okay, how about you?"
"Me too, me too." she replied, a small awkward silence filling the space around them.
"Can I um..." Lilly choked back a small cough, "Can I help you with something?"
Lilly was confused as to why Aria had greeted her in such a kind manner, it felt so unusual coming from her.
Being shouted at or called names was something she had felt used to by now, especially with Aria and the name calling or the rude attitude. Just the way she looked at her most of the time set off a small bit of sadness in her.
Aria glanced at Matteo and Elena going back and forth with each other before she looked back at Lilly and gave her a small smile, "Oh no, I don't need help with anything."
"Okay!" Lilly replied with a smile before looking away from Aria and down to Cloud.
As she started petting Cloud, Aria took the chance to look around at her surroundings. She then cleared her throat before she decided to speak again.
She placed her hand on her shoulder, "Actually, Lilly..." she quickly said, Lilly looking up at her, "There's actually something I would like to talk with you about."
"Oh, okay! What would you like to talk about?" Lilly asked, giving Aria her full undivided attention.
Aria nervously chuckled very quietly, "I can't talk about it out here, it's pretty private. Do you think we could go into maybe a separate room or something?"
Lilly was hesitant to answer her question after remembering what had happened the last time she followed Aria somewhere alone. She took a second to think of her answer, looking down at Cloud in hopes he would help her pick, but he didn't.
She then nodded her head, "O-Okay, sure." she answered quickly, feeling pressured to do so.
"Great, follow me then." Aria said, motioning Lilly to follow in her lead.
"Wait— can you tell me where we're going so I can at least tell Antonio?" Lilly asked before moving a muscle.
"I'll text him for you." Aria replied, pulling out her phone and opening it.
