Ingrid's POV

I looked over to see Ellen reading my book, suddenly I rushed over and slammed my laptop closed, "what was that?" she asked, as I was putting my laptop onto the coffee table. "uhhh, its nothing" I said rubbing my neck and looking at the floor below my feet.

"It didn't seem to be nothing....." she paused before speaking again since she noticed me looking at the floor "hold on, is this-" I cut her off before she could say what she thought it is "it's my book"

"AAHHH, OH MY GOD! finally, I was waiting for a book about your life" she hugged me again but I was taking back in surprise "wait it is a book about your life right?, since I've been wrong about the other book series" I cut her off by nodding and then saying "yes, yes it is an autobiography".

*Time Skip*

I woke up to my alarm singing to me, I looked over to see that it was 10:00, the dinner party was at 7:30 tonight. I got out of bed sloppily and I was suddenly attacked by cold air running around my entire body, it felt like the air was sucking all the warmth out of me. Suddenly I started speed walking to the bathroom so that I can have a nice hot shower.

Once the water was warm enough I hopped in, I suddenly felt the warmth return to my body, while in the shower I immediately felt overwhelmed with all the ideas of how to write about myself, I had to admite to myself that writing about my strange life was a weird feeling but kind of nice.

*Time Skip*

I had been writing for a while before Phil texted me,

Hey sis, wanna go and grab some coffee before everyone arrives for the dinner party

Since when did you wanna hang out? is something wrong?

No nothing's wrong I just wanted to spend time with you

ummm,

Yeah why not, I'll meet you at Eve's café

I was thinking maybe another one, R & H café

Never been

That's the point

Sure, I'll see you there

Bye sis

*Time Skip*

I met Phil outside the R & H café and said with my hands on my hips "well doesn't this place look nice", we laughed and Phil hugged me.

"So, why did you want to hang out?" I asked as we walked into the café, I looked around to see a nicely decorated café, the walls were painted a light grey and the windows were long, nearly reaching the ceiling and floor, all the tables were white and had four to six seats. In the centre, there was a bakery section, filled with fresh bread and newly made cakes and pastries, which filled the air and gave off a fresh scent which was mixed with a scent which you could find in any candle shop.

We sat down at one of the tables by the long windows, and Phil pulled out the menus giving himself and me one, and then said "I needed to talk to you about tonight" I looked up from my menu as he was saying this and when I saw his expression, it scared me, the concern and worry tried to get to me, but I'd seen this face before so I stayed calm.

"What do you mean?" I said genuinely confused by what he meant, and I then looked back down at the menu, but before Phil could speak a waiter came over to us with water and says "Are you guys ready to order?"

"No, not yet," Phil said, sort of smiling, I looked up at the waiter and smiled as a thank you for the water.

"Who's gonna be there," Phil said continuing with the concern, but I didn't pay attention to his face, and I picked up my glass while looking at the menu, once I put it down I glanced up and then back down and say "you, Dan, Eve, Ellen".

I glanced up and saw that he was no longer looking at me, but outside now, and I saw he was clenching his fists, but he settled and picked up the menu and began looking through it, "why?" I asked, "what do you mean why?" he asked back now we were both looking at each other.

I closed my menu, ready to order and said "why do you want to know who's gonna be there?", Phil closed his menu probably because he was also ready to order and called over the waiter, "how can I help you?" the waiter said, holding his notepad.

"We're ready to order," I said, we ordered and Phil said "I wanted to know if there was gonna be any tension in the room"

I sighed "Eve and Ellen have gotten over it, myconcern is are you over it," I paused to take a sip of my waterand continued "anyway, they're not there to annoy you, Iwant Dan to get to know
