Iris P.O.V

I sat on Khalil's bed as he explained how he lied about the whole Elana thing. After he finished talking I looked him in the eye. My eyes began to water because he didn't care about how I felt in this. I wipe away tears and he got close to me; stroking my hair. 

Khalil: I already know....Sorry. I was just being a jerk

I didn't say anything and he pulled me into a hug. We stayed like that for a while not saying any words. We laid back on the bed and looked up at the ceiling still cuddling each other as it rained. I didn't know if we were together or apart. But I knew was he understood without me saying any words. He understood all of it. 

Elana P.O.V.

My phone vibrated and I awoken. Diggy was snuggled up to me. I grabbed my phone noticing it was 7:00pm. I answered the call.

Shannon: Elana sweetie; how are you?

Elana: Shannon? Is that you?

Shannon: Yes dear

Elana: Wow its nice hearing from you. I'm doing better and how about you?

Shannon: I'm fantastic. I will be coming back to New Jersey soon 

Elana: Really? That's great. 

Shannon: I going to have a party. But don't tell Iris. Just say it's a party your mom's friend is having. 

Elana: Okay but why don't you want her to know?

Shannon: I want it to be a surprise. Oh...dear I have to go.  See you soon.

Elana: See you soon Shannon

I hung up as Diggy woke up wrapping his arms around me. I smiled as he wiped the sleep out of his eyes. 

Elana: Did I wake you up?

Diggy: No not at all

Elana: Oh, well Shannon is coming home and she's having a party but don't tell Iris.

Diggy: That's cool she finally coming back. I was thinking about this before I fell asleep but would you like to go eat dinner? Nothing fancy; just something regular.

Elana: Sure. 

I got off Diggy and we both got dressed. I wore some jeans and uggs with a sweatshirt over it. Diggy came back into the room dressed almost the same. I grabbed my phone and we left out the house. As we drove down the street he started to speak.

Diggy: Applebee's or Chili's?

Elana: Applebee's 

He smiled and continued to drive. His pearly white teeth shined in the city lights. I couldn't help but just stare at him causing him to look my way. 

Diggy: You like what you see?

That sounded so cocky to me. I rolled my eyes.

Elana: No Diggy, I don't like what I see

I sarcastically said that causing him to gasp

Elana: I love what I see

He let out a small laugh before moving his hand on mind. I took his hand off quickly. He sighed and put both hands on the wheel.

Elana: I know Dig...but bear with me. I just started treatment and I really want to finish it. 

Diggy: I understand. It's just that you seem like the old you. I can't resist but want to be with you or near you. 

I grinned when he said that. I looked at the wallpaper of my phone displaying a photo of Diggy and I. I remember at the beginning of our relationship when we didn't want to separate from each other. Happy tears came to my eyes and I kissed him on the cheek. 

Elana: Hang in there K?

Daniel: Okay

He wanted to kiss back but he was holding in. He focused on driving instead and the car became silent.
