All Roses Have Thorns

Sierra XXI

Erin didn't come to dinner.

She knew it was probably her fault, but her outburst was definitely justified. Erin had put her through a lot, and she had a right to speak her mind.

They had waited for a while and she had passed time by talking to Maggie, until the girl turned away to look at her phone. She hadn't said a single word afterwards, only sending cold glances her way.

She wasn't exactly sure why, but maybe Erin had said something to her?

Dear god, she hoped not.

Safiya had noticed no one was including her in a conversation, so they had started talking a few minutes ago.

Their food was starting to arrive when Zach stood up, a panicked expression on his face. "G-Guys... I- I need to go. Just pack up the stuff I ordered." Then he ran.

The others watched him go, and the other boys and Maggie started a hushed conversation of whispers.

Erin.

Something was wrong with Erin.

But still, she didn't move.
