"Emma's going to forgive you," Rose reassured Brooke as they parked in the school's parking lot. "And if she doesn't then you still have me, and Riley, and Jake."

"I know. It's just she's never been mad at me before." Brooke pouted, looping her arm with Rose's after they got out of the car.

"You're going to get worry lines," Riley commented in a sing-song voice joining the girls.

"Stop that!" Rose exclaimed. "That's just going to make her worry even more."

"Sorry." Riley laughed.

Rose shook her head as they approached Emma, who Brooke grabbed causing the darker blonde to jump.

Emma pulled her headphones out and stopped walking as she stared at Brooke.

"You could answer one of my texts. I know you're getting them. They say, "Read"." Brooke complained.

"Hi, Riley," Emma spoke turning towards the brunette. "Hey, Rose."

Rose groaned in annoyance before throwing her arms up. "I'm going to find Audrey and Noah. Bye." She waved before running off to find her other friends.

Rose found Audrey and Noah on the other side of the school, where a memorial for Nina was set up. Audrey had her camera out recording anything and everything.

"I miss you, Nina Bobina." Noah read from one of the many cards attached to the fence around a large picture of Nina Patterson. "Rest in Parda. Love, Miranda."

"Isn't that the girl Nina fat-shamed last year?" Rose questioned as she approached, slightly startling the two.

"I think so," Audrey replied, pointing the camera at Rose who smiled down at it before looking back up at Audrey and Noah. "The questionable Guatemalan liposuction?"

"Sounds like our Nina," Noah said in mock adoration.

"Yeah. She was a real bitch sometimes." Rose nodded, crossing her arms.

"Did Melrose Penelope Clarke just say a bad word?" Audrey fake gasped.

"Oh, Shut up! And don't ever use my full name!" She said as a serious look painted her pale face, the wind blowing her hair into her eyes.

Noah pushed her hair back and reached into the pockets of his bag. "Here." He said holding out a small hairband.

"Thanks?" Rose said taking the hairband and putting her hair in a ponytail.

"Why do you have hairbands in your pockets?" Audrey questioned slightly creeped out.

"For Rose. She always forgets hers at my house so I just started shoving them in my backpack." He explained.

"That's where they all went!" The blonde threw her hands up. "Also, just so you know, I leave hairbands at all of my friend's houses. Surprisingly expect Brooke."

"Whom you live with." Noah laughed.

"Yeah," Rose replied, the three friends laughing at Rose's antics.

"Hey, guys. I'm Piper Shaw. I'm doing a story for..." A dark-haired woman in her early twenties with a pair of dark glasses resting on her face spoke, approaching them.

"Autopsy of a Crime!" Noah finished. "Yeah, your show is completely addictive."

"Thank you," Piper replied with a smile. "Fellow crime geek."

"Totally." He gushed, his smile growing even wider. "Uh, I'm Noah Foster. This is Audrey, she's shy, and this is Melrose, she's quiet." He introduced the girls.
