RICE'S POV

"Why'd you disable the comments?", Kiara turned around to ask Lilly from the passenger seat.

Lilly just shrugged and continued to look out the window.

"Were people saying rude stuff??", Kiara asks again.

"Nah."

"Well then why'd you take it down"

"Cos Jack liked it and people started talking", she finally lets out, instantly regretting it after seeing Kiara's reaction.

"Oh.", Kiara says shrinking back down into her seat.

Everyone goes silent just as we arrive at a red light, not awkward at all. I may as well ask Lilly something if she's gonna be living with us too now, "So, what do you do?"

"Why the fuck does everyone here want to know people's job?", She replies with a groan.

"Sorry", I say, not knowing how else to answer.

"I'm a stripper", she says after a few seconds.

"Oh...that's so cool!", I say, regretting every word instantly.

Lilly rolls her eyes and continues to look out the window.

I look over at Kiara, hoping to be able to make some sort of conversation with her.

"Who's that?", I ask as I see her scrolling through some random guy's instagram, looked a lot like a model.

"Oh no one", She says quickly shoving her phone back into her pocket.

"Is that Jack?", I ask growing curious.

"Yeah.", she replies, in an almost whisper.

"So.....?", I say hoping she knows where I was going with this.

"What?", she asks looking offended.

"Nothing.", I say turning to face the road again.

"Good.", she replies crossing her arms over her chest and putting her hood over her head, she sees me staring to which she replies, "I'm tired, okay?"

"I just thought that...."

"He's my ex.", she finally blurts out.

"Oh."

"Thats right, "oH"", she says mocking me.

"So you've dated famous people before?"

"Oh my God", she groans and turns away to look out the window.

"yOuVe DaTeD fAmOuS pEoPlE bEfOre?", Lilly mocks me under breath.

We arrived at the house soon after and the first thing the girls did was get out, grab Lilly's luggage before I was even out of the car.

LILLY'S POV

"So do I get to sleep in your room?", I ask Kiara excitedly.

"Uhh...", she hesitates while looking down at the floor, "I'm sleeping in Rice's room"

"Oh."

"We do have a spare room for you though", she adds immediately. "Right across from mine!"

"I can't believe Jack is still liking your pictures", Kiara says searching for a new movie to watch on Netflix.

"Maybe he's just being friendly?", I say reaching over to grab a handful of popcorn from the bowl on Kiara's lap.
