When the bell finally rang for the Juniors to eat lunch, Lisa told James and Kendall that she was going to the bathroom. The rest of the gang (minus Katie and Dani) were sitting at their usual table discussing James and Kendall's discovery.

"That could be it, but we might have to confront her about it," Bridgit said, "but how? she rarely speaks to us anymore. She doesn't even speak to Logan much!" All five of them had fallen silent to think about what to do, when Lisa walked up to the table.

"Hey, guys, what'd I miss?" she asked. That was when Logan came up with an idea.

"I was just thinking about whether or not we should go watch a movie or not on Saturday, you know, because we all haven't been out in a long time as a group," he replied.

"You were?" everyone but Lisa shot Carlos a look, "I mean, that'd be awesome! We can go watch a horror movie or something, like Paranormal Activity 3!" Another look was given to Carlos, "Er... I'm gonna go grab a corndog, anyone want anything?" Everyone shook their heads as Carlos walked off.

"I can't do Saturday at, mom's taking me out for Chinese, and we haven't spent any time together in ages, because she's always with Robbie..." Lisa trailed off when she mentioned her mother's boyfriend's name. Kendall and James both looked at Logan as if to say 'Who's Robbie?', and Logan looked back at them as if to say 'I don't know.'

"Who's Robbie, Lise?" Bridgit and Carlos asked. Lisa inwardly grimaced.

"He's mom's newest boyfriend. They've been going out for about a day and a half as far as I'm aware of... Don't say anything about it to ANYONE, mom says it's still early days," Lisa replied hesitantly, "Listen, I'm gonna go head to study hall to catch up with Dani and Katie. See ya." Lisa sprinted out of the cafeteria. Logan sighed.

"Dude, what the hell? We never planned to go anywhere this Saturday!" James yeled.

"I only said it to see if she'd agree to it. And she didn't so that must mean something's going on," Logan retaliated.

"You know, Logan does have a point," Carlos said as he sat back down, eating a corndog, "I saw how panicked she looked when she left the cafeteria. Her face was really pale. I'm worried about her, she's not the same Lisa Goldstein we've known since Pre-K." Logan started to run after her but James stopped him.

"We need to give her some space," he said. Logan, however, ignored him and walked out of the cafeteria.

...

As Lisa, walked past Carlos and out of the cafeteria, her vision began to blur with tears. She kept walking, not stopping until she left the school building. She was speeding down the road of her house but little did she know what she would be met with when she reached her 'home'...
