I want to keep this anon short so remember to review and enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own Pretty Little Liars.

It has been three days since the corn maze, and all four girls were still being questioned every day.

Rose felt that this was useless since the girls have told the cops the same thing every time.

The cops also have an explanation on why Chelsey was in the woods also, so what's the point.

Rose now lay on the floor in her room, staring at the ceiling.

She had a million things running through her head, but Rose's main concern was Zoe.

Rose had been terrible to Zoe that day in the hospital.

She had even called her a bitch, which was what A had called the girls almost every text they sent.

Rose was wondering what Zoe was doing at this very moment.

Hopefully she wasn't alone. Kara and Rose have been trying to make sure that one of them was always around Zoe ever since they found out that she was cutting, but Zoe really wanted the girls to leave.

So Rose and Kara did.

Anna wanted to help out too since she got out if the hospital the day after the girls found out about Zoe, but she was under house arrest.

All the girls kinda were. They were all scared to leave their houses unless one of the girls was going to another's house.

Rose heard her phone buzz.

She wondered who it was.

Rose hoped that it would be Zak. She still hasn't heard from him since their date.

Why would Zak be ignoring her?

Sure, there was the fact that Rose had stolen his credit card, or that Rose had refused to kiss him

Rose looked at her phone and her heart fluttered.

I'm coming over.

-Zak

Rose didn't know if that was good or bad.

Rose stood up and looked at herself in the mirror.

She was a mess. Rose ran a quick brush through her hair and ran to brush her teeth.

She wasn't sure why she felt the urgent need to; she and Zak were obviously not going to do anything with their mouths other than talking.

Rose's parents were home and they knew that Zak hadn't talked to her since the date, and they really didn't like Zak at the moment.

Rose stepped outside so she could meet Zak out there so they could skip the awkwardness of Rose's parents.

After a few minutes, Rose saw Zak's car. He parked a few houses down from Rose's and Rose met him at the car.

Zak looked at her and blew a sigh of relief.

"You're okay." He said, grabbing Rose's face.

Rose took a step back, signaling that she didn't want to be touched.

"Of course I'm okay, but you wouldn't know since you haven't talked to me since Friday!"

Rose said the last part sharply.

Zak's face turned sad.

"I'm sorry," he said, "I had to get back to Hollis on a short notice and when I tried to text you, it wouldn't go through. I don't know why since I had perfect connection. I figured that I would try again the next day but it still wouldn't go through. I then decided that I would drive here the next weekend and see you but then I saw the newspaper. It said that there was an accident at a local corn maze and people were hurt. I was stupid and didn't read the article but I skimmed it and saw your name, Rose. I dropped the paper and drove back to Rosewood as fast as I can."

Okay, that made Rose a little less angry, but she was not quite at the point of forgiveness. Rose was more mad at A. If Zak was telling the truth, it was probably A who caused the bad connection.

Rose said nothing.

"Rose, I'm not lying, I tried to-"

"It's not the fact that I think your lying, it's the fact that I didn't hear from you in four days and I thought you didn't care about me, Zak! I'm mad at the fact that you were willing to wait until the freaking weekend to come check up on me! If the roles were reversed, I would make my way back to you as soon as the first call wouldn't go through!"

Rose interrupted Zak.

"Rose, I wasn't thinking."

"That it not an excuse. I have gone through so much crap in these four days, things have happened to me and my friends and I really needed you, but I was left in the dark!"

Rose had tears slowly streaming down her face now.

"Rose, don't cry. I will do anything. I'm a asshole I see that, but I really need you to see that I care about you so much. My heart broke when I thought you were hurt! I got two speeding tickets coming over here!" Zak opened his car to retrieve the tickets to prove his innocence to Rose, but she didn't care.

Rose wiped her eyes and shook her head.

"Zak, stop."

He turned back to Rose.

Zak looked at Rose with that sad, I did nothing wrong, look.

Rose's tolerance skyrocketed from this.

"Oh, don't you dare give me that look. I have been through shit, all of my friends have been through shit, but they all have someone looking after them. Everyone but little old Rose. I'm putting my troubles aside for them but I'm done, Zak. I have had nobody to hold me and tell me that I was going to be okay. So don't you dare think for any reason that you didn't do anything wrong because I am seriously done with you."

Rose gave Zak one last look and turned around to walk back to her house.

"Rose!" Zak called after her but she didn't respond.

Rose kept walking but was soon interrupted.

Zak grabbed Rose's hand and spun her around.

As soon as Rose was facing Zak, he kissed her.

Rose let him. She didn't know why but she did.

Rose kissed back. Hard.

Zak had brought his hands up to Rose's face and he held it there.

Rose's hands were exploring Zak's body and found a resting place on his hips.

Rose didn't know how long they were like this, but her and Zak broke apart when she heard something hard hit the ground.

Rose looked at the cause of the noise.

"Sorry."

I was Kara.

"Kara! What are you doing?!"

Rose looked at Zak and his face was bright red. Rose's was probably red too.

"I texted you that I was coming over but you didn't respond so I decided to walk over and I saw you talking with this guy," Kara pointed at Zak, " and I decided I would wait until you two were done talking so I hid behind this trash can," Kara signaled around at her feet at the tipped over trash can, "but then you started to make out so I stayed there and, I lost my balance and….oopsie."

Kara said, her face was red too.

"Kara, you could have just left." Rose said putting her hand on her forehead.

"Sorry." Kara said, looking at Rose and Zak.

Kara smiled and pulled Rose next to her,

"Is this that Zak guy?" She whispered.

Rose said, loudly, "Yes. Kara, meet Zak, Zak, meet Kara."

They shook hands.

"He's cute." Kara said to Rose.

Again, Rose and Zak's faces were red.

"Kara, you have Owen, remember." Rose said, reminding Kara of her boyfriend.

"I know, I know. I'm just… complimenting you." Kara said, saving herself.

Everyone just stood there for a while.

"Okay, I'm third-wheeling, so I'll just meet you at your house." Kara said to Rose, and then quickly walked off.

Rose turned back to Zak.

"Sorry"

Zak laughed.

"Thanks okay. You told her about me?"

Rose looked at the ground and tried to avoid eye contact. This whole moment was really embarrassing.

"Uh, yea. When I was at the hospital I told my friends about you." Rose said to the ground.

Zak put his hand under Rose's chin and lifted it up so Rose was looking at him.

"All good things, I hope."

Rose looked at Zak. It was now that she remembered that she was supposed to be mad at him. Rose took a step back.

"Actually I told them how you abandoned me after our date, which I thought wasn't that bad."

"Oh, god, not this again"

"Oh, yea, this again. Just because you kissed me does not mean that were fine again. I'm still upset." Rose crossed her arms.

"Okay. I know that nothing I can say will make you forgive me completely, but you should know that when I saw the newspaper, my dorm mates told me not to go."

Rose though this was irrelevant.

"What?" Rose said confused.

"I told them about you, but, unlike you, Rose, I told them the good things. I told them about your beautiful smile, your beautiful blue eyes and about how your black hair flows down your back. I told them of how understanding you were and how forgiving you were and I told them about when we first met and all the times we texted that all I wanted to do was hug and kiss you. I told them about our first date, and that included how I tried to kiss you but you wouldn't let me for some reason. And because of that, they thought that you weren't worth it. They thought you were some ignorant little junior in high school. But I didn't think so, so I drove all the way back here."

Rose looked at him again. Rose smiled.

"Your friends are assholes."

Zak laughed and hugged Rose.

"I'm sorry," Rose said to his chest, "I am pretty ignorant."

Zak pulled her away and looked at Rose in the eyes.

"No you are not. But, we can talk about this later, since your friend is waiting. I'm not going to drive back to Hollis until next weekend so if you're not busy, you can spend the night at my apartment sometime this week."

"Sure, I'd love that."

Rose knew that her night with Zak could go many ways, but Rose hoped that she wouldn't have to do anything illegal, since Rose was a minor.

Maybe Zak was planning something else and they wouldn't have to break any laws.

"Great." Said Zak smiling.

Rose smiled too and then Zak leaned down to kiss her. Rose let him and as soon as it was over, Rose started to walk back to her house and Zak got back in his car.

When Rose entered her house, her mom was in the kitchen cleaning up.

"Hey, Rose." Aria said looking up from her work.

"Hey." Rose said, walking over to the fridge.

"Where were you?" Aria said turning to look at her daughter.

Rose grabbed a yogurt and peeled of the lid.

"Just out for a little walk."

"Really?" her mom asked. "You left the house without telling me?"

Rose grabbed a spoon and took a bite.

"I wanted some fresh air."

"Okay." Aria said, suspiciously, picking up the wet wash cloth.

Rose started walking up the stairs to her room when her mom called after her.

"Oh, Rose, Kara stopped by. She's in your room waiting for you."

"Okay, thanks mom." Rose said running up the stairs to her room.

Rose entered her room and closed the door.

Kara was sitting on Rose's bed.

"What the hell, Kara." Rose said walking to her bed.

"What? I needed to talk to you so I waited my turn." Kara said in her defense.

"You didn't have to spy on Zak and I." Rose said, now sitting on her bed.

"I couldn't help it."

Kara said, lying down.

"Are you guys in a fight or something? You seemed pretty mad after I left." Kara asked.

"You were spying on us?" Rose asked.

"Yea… I couldn't help it."

Rose hit Kara really hard on the leg.

"Rose that hurt!" Kara shouted sitting back up.

"Don't spy on me!"

"I'm sorry that I'm good at it."

"Let's leave spying to A. They do enough of it." Rose said to Kara.

"You're right, I'm sorry." Kara said, still rubbing her leg.

"I'm sorry about your leg. I think I have slight anger issues." Rose said, standing up.

Kara stood up also, "Its fine. It happens to the best of us."

"Do you want me to get you ice?" Rose said seeing Kara's hurt face from the pain of her standing.

"Please?"

Rose smiled and left her room to get ice for Kara.

"-She's lying to us, Ezra."

Rose stopped halfway down the stairs when she heard the sound of her mom's voice.

"Aria, she lied about kissing Zak, any kid would do that to their parents." Ezra said to his wife.

Rose quickly walked to the top of the stairs so she was hidden from the sight of her parents.

"Ezra, one lie can lead to another, then another and then another. I was the biggest liar when I was Rose's age and I can tell when someone is lying and Rose has been lying to us for a long time." Aria said. Even though Rose couldn't see her mother, she could tell that Aria was pacing the room and was worried.

"I think you're over reacting, Aria. She will tell us about her boyfriend when she wants to. She kissed him not even ten minutes ago."

Rose was flattered that her dad was sticking up for her, but how did they know that Rose and Zak had kissed. Had Kara used her big mouth and spilled the news to her mom.

Aria spoke again,

"I saw the whole thing! Rose was angry at Zak about something, and I know that it wasn't just about the fact that Zak hasn't reached out to her, there are some hidden details mixed in there. I've been suspicious of Rose ever since she found out about us, but if that light from Zak's car hadn't shone in my face and caught my attention and I didn't see the whole conversation, I would still be suspicious."

So that's how Aria knew.

Rose had to tell the group about how her mom was suspicious. Everyone else's parents where putting the pieces together themselves.

Rose was going to stay for only a few more minutes to gather more information when Rose's phone rang.

The noise was loud, and Rose knew that she had no choice but to walk down the stairs.

Rose put her little acting ability to use and walked down the stairs, pretending that she had no idea what her parents were talking about.

Rose walked over to the freezer and opened it to retrieve some ice for Kara's leg.

When Rose turned around she saw that her parents had gotten up and walked over to the kitchen.

"Hey, Rose." Aria said in a monotone voice.

"Hi?" Rose said in a confused tone.

Aria looked at her husband and gave him a look that said, "Watch this, I'm right."

Aria looked at Rose and asked, "Anything fun happen on your walk?"

Ha. Rose could tell what her mom was doing.

Rose took advantage of this.

"Well," Rose began, "I would say that it was just a boring old walk but I know that you would accuse me of lying again, so, yes. My walk was very interesting but I don't need to tell you the details because you already know them." Rose said, looking her mother in the eye.

"What?" Aria asked, astonished. "How do you know about that?"

Rose looked at her parents and said with a smirk,

"Like you, I'm a good spy."

With one last glare, Rose gripped the ice and walked back up the stairs to her room.

Rose walked in her room and flopped down on her bed next to Kara.

"Finally." Kara said, grabbing the ice from Rose's hand. Kara sat up and put the ice to her leg.

"What took so long?" Kara asked, looking down at Rose.

Rose let out a long sigh and replied, "I caught my parents discussing on how I'm a lair. They knew that I kissed Zak and my mom was mad that I didn't tell her and then she confronted me about it…it was a mess, Kara but I got the last word."

"Okay….well, I came over because I think that we should all go to Anna's tonight, we haven't all talked all as a group since the hospital"

"Yea, that's a great idea. Did you tell Zoe and Anna yet?"

"I've texted Zoe and she's on board but Zoe and I think that we should surprise Anna."

Rose nodded her head. She liked the idea.

"Okay, cool. When are we going?"

"Not till later tonight."

Rose suddenly remembered the text she had gotten at the top of the stairs.

Your mom's a lair, and you're a bitch. You're starting to get more and more like me, Rose.

-A

"Oh, god." Rose complained, throwing her phone down on the bed.

"A?" Kara asked, grabbing Rose's phone.

"Who else?"

Kara read the text and looked at Rose.

"Don't worry, you're nothing like A."

"Thanks." Rose said, unenthusiastically.

Kara flopped down next to Rose and together, they lay there in silence.

It was only a matter of minutes until Rose fell asleep.

Zoe didn't bother using band aids anymore. When Zoe cut herself, she watched herself in the mirror as her wrists bled. Zoe watched until she saw the life drain from her.

It was getting harder and harder for Zoe to feel physical pain. Sure, the mental part was still there, but Zoe had cut so much, that she was numb. She had to cut deeper and deeper each time.

After only a few days, Zoe had cuts going up and down both arms. She cut at least three times a day, but now it was getting harder to grasp the pain, so Zoe cut deep.

But not too deep.

Zoe did not want to kill herself. Zoe wanted to live more than anything. That's why she cut, because the pain made her feel alive. Zoe looked at herself in the mirror and saw her dead self. She looked down to see no more blood draining from her and Zoe debated if she should do one more slice or not.

Zoe wanted to, but she knew she had to get ready for the sleepover with Anna, Rose and Kara.

Zoe cleaned off the razor and rinsed the sink out with water.

Zoe looked through her closet and found a blue long sleeve shirt. She put it on with a pair of black yoga pants and threw her hair up in a ponytail.

She packed a few things like a toothbrush and pajamas and soon, Zoe was walking down the stairs.

Zoe walked passed her parents in the kitchen making dinner.

"Hey, Zoe." Emily said, peeling carrots.

Zoe fake-smiled at her mom. "Hey."

Zoe had recently discovered that she was an amazing liar. She always put on a smile around people and she even convinced her friends that she was fine and was not cutting anymore.

Zoe grabbed her keys from the counter and prepared to walk out the door.

"You going somewhere?" Alison asked, looking up from her laptop."

Zoe grabbed the keys and looked at Alison.

"Uh, yea. We all decided that we're going to surprise Anna tonight. We're sleeping over her house tonight too."

Emily looked up at Zoe.

"You have school tomorrow."

"I don't think any of us are planning on going to school this week."

"Zoe, you've already missed a week of school, I don't think missing another is good for you."

Zoe thought about this. She did have to go to school, but she didn't think that she was ready.

"Okay, let's make a compromise. Just let me have tomorrow off and I'll go back on Tuesday."

Alison and Emily stared at each other, discussing in private.

"Yeah, Okay. We can work with that." Alison said smiling at her daughter.

Zoe fake-smiled back, gave a quite thanks, and walked to her car.

Zoe was banging on Rose's door. She had been knocking for minuets and nobody had answered yet.

Zoe was about to knock again when the door flung open.

"Hi, Mrs. Fitz."

"Hey, Zoe. Are you looking for Rose and Kara?"

Zoe nodded her head. "Yea, I texted them that I was on my way over but they didn't respond."

Aria stepped aside and beckoned for Zoe to come in.

"There both in Rose's room." Aria said, pointing up the stairs.

Zoe nodded and said, "Thanks," and made her way up the stairs.

Zoe didn't bother knocking, she just opened her door. Both Kara and Rose were asleep on Rose's bed.

Zoe looked at them, jealous. They both looked so peaceful. Zoe was angry at that; they actually had the ability to get some sleep.

Zoe shook he head. She was being ridiculous. Zoe was just fed up, and she needed to get over it.

Zoe grabbed a pillow and smacked Rose over the head with it.

Rose shot up, which awoke Kara, who shot up also.

They both looked at Zoe.

"Come on, let's go." Zoe said, already turning to the door.

"God, way to be subtle." Kara said sitting up.

Together the three of them walked out the door to Zoe's car.

Bang…bang…bang.

Zoe banged on the door.

After a few knocks, Brendon opened the door.

"We came to see Anna." Kara said from behind Zoe.

"She's upstairs." Brendon said, moving aside to let the girls in.

"Thanks." All the girls murmured at once.

Brendon grabbed a bag and headed for the door.

Zoe stepped in front of Brendon and stopped him.

"Are you going somewhere?"

Brendon looked up at Zoe annoyed.

"This place makes me depressed and I want to leave."

Kara stepped forward and grabbed Brendon's arm.

"You're not running away, are you?"

Brendon pulled his arm out from under Kara and said, "No. I'm just spending the night at my friends, calm down."

"Does Anna know? Do your parents?" Zoe asked.

Brendon shook his head. "They don't care. There too focused on Anna to care where I'm at right now. And yeah, Anna knows. She was going to ask one of you to spend the night or something but I guess you all beat her to it."

"Okay, well where are your parents?" Rose asked, joining the conversation.

"Out."

"Out?" All the girls said at once.

"Yes, out. Now move." Brendon said, shoving through all the girls.

He was out the door in a matter of seconds.

"He's related to Anna? He's kinda a buzzkill." Kara said, looking at Zoe and Rose.

"Leave it alone, Kara. He's obviously depressed so let's just let it be." Zoe said, understanding what Brendon was saying.

They all walked up the stairs in silence. They really wanted to surprise Anna.

"I'll go in first." Zoe said, pushing past Rose and Kara.

Zoe opened up Anna's door, but nobody was in Anna's pitch black room.

"What the-" Zoe began, but she was interrupted by a large object hitting her.

"Gah!"

Anna had ran out from the corner and tackled Zoe.

"Get out of my house you bastard!" Anna screamed, pinning Zoe down.

The feeling of hands around Zoe's wrists and a body on top of her was bringing back memories to Zoe.

Not good ones.

"Get off, please!" Zoe screamed, trying to get Anna off. But just like that night, Zoe was weak.

It seemed to go by in slow motion. Anna was screaming at Zoe, trying to beat her up or something, and Zoe was screaming/crying, because every time Zoe looked up, it was Daniel pinning Zoe down, not Anna.

"Please get off! Please, please please! Stop!" Zoe was screaming over and over again.

"If you touch a hair on my friend's heads I swear to god I will kill you!" Anna was screaming back.

Anna and Zoe were both going through some PTSD. Anna was most likely seeing A, and Zoe was seeing Daniel.

"Get off!" Kara yelled.

Zoe snapped back to reality. Kara had grabbed Anna and Rose was trying to calm Zoe down.

"Zoe, it's okay, you're safe, Daniel isn't here." Rose said, rubbing Zoe's back.

Kara was doing the same to Rose, except replacing Daniel with A.

After a few minutes, Zoe had calmed down, but Anna was still gasping for air.

Kara shot up and grabbed Anna's inhaler and gave it to her.

After using it, Anna said, "What a messed up life we have."

The girl all nodded their heads.

"I'm sorry," Anna began, "it's not the first time. I just heard somebody walking around my house and I panicked and hid and when you walked in, my brain went haywire and I though Zoe was A. I'm really sorry, Zoe."

Zoe still had tears rolling down her face, "It's okay, Anna. My PTSD did the same thing.

Rose tightened her grip on Zoe.

"Daniel."

Zoe cringed at his name.

"Sorry"

"You're fine."

Kara looked at Anna.

"Surprise?"

The girls all laughed, except for Zoe. She was still freaked out.

Anna got up and made her way back to her bed.

"What are you all doing here anyway?" She asked.

Kara stood up and walked over to Anna's bed to sit with her.

"We felt bad that you were alone all the time so we thought we would all come and see you."

Rose, removing her arm from around Zoe's shoulder, stood up to sit at Anna's desk.

"We expected your whole family to be here, but they are all gone, so we can have the whole house to ourselves, so it's even better." Rose said when she sat down.

"Yea, it made me sad that they were all back to their normal lives so fast, but then again, it's a relief." Anna said to the girls.

Kara perked up at a sudden thought. "Oh, speaking normal, which this isn't, Rose and Zak are talking again. Well, there doing a lot more than talking."

Kara winked at Rose.

"What?" Anna asked loudly.

"Kara! This is why we can't tell you anything." Rose yelled, throwing an eraser at Kara.

It successfully hit Kara on the arm.

"Ow, Rose. You'd think I would have learned by now that making you angry results in pain."

Zoe looked at Kara, confused. "What?"

Rose answered for Kara. "I think I've got a slight bit of anger issues."

"Slight?" Kara said, rolling up her pant leg.

There was a dark, fist side bruise.

"Oh, my god, Rose!" Anna yelled when she saw the bruise.

"I'm sorry! Kara shouldn't of been spying on Zak and I."

"What happened with you and Zak?" Zoe asked.

"Well, you all know that Zak has kind of been ignoring me right?"

The girls nodded.

Rose continued, "Well, he came to see me earlier today and apologized. I was hard on him for it but, I don't really know what happened. I turned away thinking I had won but he grabbed me and kissed me."

"Hard." Kara added.

"Don't make me throw another eraser!" Rose said, grabbing an eraser and aiming it at Kara.

Kara threw herself behind Anna for protection.

"Are you too a thing now?" Anna asked, ignoring Kara who had jumped behind her.

"I don't know." Rose answered.

"Did he say anything to hint it?" Zoe asked, crossing her legs on the floor.

"He invited me over his apartment this weekend. To, you know, spend the night."

Kara jumped up from behind Anna and said in a loud tone,

"He wants to have sex with you!"

Rose's face turned red. So did Zoe's. Zoe hated that word: sex. Maybe it was because she had a bad experience with it.

"Rose, you can't go!" Zoe said. She was shaking again.

Rose got up and sat next to Zoe.

"Zoe, I'm going. I'll just make sure we do nothing illegal." Rose finished her sentence and looked at Zoe.

"Are you shaking?"

Yes, Zoe was. She wasn't cold or anything, yea she was freaked out still, but not enough to where she would be shaking in fear.

Rose put her hand on Zoe's. "Are you okay?"

Zoe nodded her head and went to stand up.

Then a sudden wave of nausea rushed through her.

Zoe ran to the bathroom and puked in the toilet.

After the nasty bile shot up her throat, she sat there.

Zoe cried. Why was she puking? She didn't feel sick.

Zoe flushed the toilet and look at herself in the mirror.

Rose heard banging at the door.

"Zoe, are you okay? Do you need a ride home?"

It was Kara.

Zoe sniffled, "No I'm fine. Just give me a few minutes."

Zoe heard Kara's footsteps as she left.

Zoe put her head down to stop the nausea. Zoe noticed that her sleeve was covered in blood. One of Zoe's cuts had split back open.

"Shit."

Zoe searched through Anna's drawers and found a Band-Aid and put it on her wrist.

Zoe exited the bathroom and walked back to Anna's room.

They all looked at Zoe in concern.

"I'm fine guys." Zoe said, sitting on the bed next to the three girls.

"You sure you don't want to go home?" Anna asked. "It won't offend me."

"No, I don't want to go home. Can we talk about something else please?" Zoe said, staring at the celling.

"I start my job tomorrow." Kara said, unenthusiastically.

"Kara, that's awesome. Why aren't you excited?" Anna asked.

Kara sighed, "Since Owen and I are dating now, I'm scared he won't tell me the hard truth. He won't tell me if I suck at it or not."

Rose shook her head. "Kara, your overthinking this. You're passing out coffee, you'll be fine."

"Thank." Kara said, still in a sad tone.

"Hey, Anna, how are you and Dylan? You still haven't told us what happened when we left you at the hospital." Rose asked, changing the subject.

Anna laughed. "We're friends. He just wanted to know if I was fine and he told me he and Chelsey were over. He didn't really say much, just that we needed to hang out more. We've texted but he hasn't come to see me yet"

"That's because you haven't invited him over!" Kara said in a tone the said, duh.

"I know. I don't know if he should come over yet. We're not anything special, but I do want to see him. Maybe I'll invite him over after school tomorrow."

"You're going to school tomorrow?" Kara asked.

"No, Kara. I can barely stand. He would come over after he went to school."

"Are any of us going to school this week?" Rose asked.

"I am." Zoe said. It was the first thing she had said in a while.

"My parents are making me. I've already missed a week and missing another would not help me graduate. I can skip tomorrow but I'm going back on Tuesday."

Kara looked at Zoe. "If you're going, I am too."

Zoe did another one of her fake smiles. "Thanks."

"I'll go too." Rose said.

"I would go, but I'm on house arrest so…" Anna trailed off.

"Don't worry, I'll bring back all you're assignments." Zoe said to Anna.

"Thanks you're the best." Anna said, grabbing Zoe's hand.

"I'll butter you up for Dylan. Tell him all the good things about you, see if he gets the hint that you're amazing and should kiss you already." Kara said to Anna seriously. Zoe didn't doubt that she would.

"Kara I swear if you do I will make you sorry!" Anna said to Kara.

All the girls' phones buzzed.

Zoe looked at her phone:

Making you sorry is my job. Hang tight girls, I'll be there soon.

-A

"What?" Anna yelled.

"Calm down, Anna. He's bluffing."

"God, I'm tired of this." Zoe said, rolling over on the bed.

Zoe wasn't lying, she was tired. So tired, that she fell asleep mid-conversation.

An: Sorry for the boring chapter 9.

I'm leading up to another big thing.

Also, why was Zoe shaking and puking?
