CONSISTORY GIRL

Chapter 7

                       Me and Britt enter Austin's loft and music blasts.
Austin comes up to us," Hey, guys!"
We hug.
"Everyone is in the back, if you want to join," Austin smiles.
"Sure!," I smile.
                             • • •
Once I saw them all again, I was overwhelmed with happiness. We hugged and Lily took squad selfies.
After that, we all sit down.
"So, how are things?," Lily asks.
"I'm a professional writer now and we have a kid," I say.
"Aww!," Lily smiles,"Well, this is my boyfriend, Liam."
She points to the guy next to her.
She continues,"We've been together for awhile now. I've been working in the Fashion Design Company. It's amazing!"
Natalie takes over,"Well, me and Matthew are engaged. After you all left, we fell in love!"
Matthew smiles,"We started our own restaurant! It's the best in town!"
Rose takes over,"And I ain't got time for none of that! I'm happily single! And I'm traveling around the world! I don't need a man!"
Austin smiles,"And I started my own industry! That's why I own this luxury loft!"
"Woah," Liam jokes,"No need to rub it in!"
We all laugh.
Natalie takes a deep breath,"There's another reason I wanted us all together...... I just found out something that you all need to know. They're letting Chuck out of prison tonight."
"WHAT?!," we all exclaim.
"But he did all of those horrible things! He should never be out!," Britt shouts.
"I don't know why, but he's getting out," Natalie sighs.
This isn't gonna happen. He will be let out over my dead body.
                            • • •
We all spend the night at the loft. There are 5 rooms.
Me and Britt sleep together.
Natalie and Matthew sleep together.
Lily and Liam sleep together.
Rose sleeps in the guest room.
And Austin sleeps in the master room.
I couldn't sleep knowing that Chuck is out and lurking.
In the morning I wake up to Liam shaking the bed.
"Lily's gone! We have to find her!"
                                 • • •
Me, Britt, Liam, Natalie, Matthew, Rose and Austin all go through the park looking for Lily.
"Where is she?," Liam asks,"We need to find her."
That's when Britt scream.
We whip around to see what she's screaming at.
It's Lily's dead body.
