It was a 4 months later and Natalie, Danielle and Josh were waiting for Hallie's plane to land. It was about the end of the year so they didn't really need to be at school

"I can't wait to see her," Natalie said

"Yeah me too" Danielle agreed

"Do you think she changed?" Josh asked

"That was the purpose of this trip" Natalie

"I hope she gets here soon I got to go to work" Josh said

"If not we will bring her to your work"

"Ok because I was suppose to be there 10 minutes ago" Josh said and then ran out

"You're dating a crazy guy," Natalie said

"Yep but he is my crazy guy" Danielle said. Then Hallie comes out

"Hallie!" Natalie said

"Hey you guys" Hallie said and they all hugged "How are you guys?"

"Good" They both answered

"But how are you?" Danielle asked

"Better then ever" Hallie said

"Are you gonna tell us about your trip?" Natalie asked

"Yeah I will. We have all day. My parents are at my aunts they will be back next week," Hallie said

"Right. I remember you telling me," Natalie said

"So what now?" Hallie asked

"Josh wanted to see you but he had to work"

"So let's go play pool at the therate" Hallie suggested

"Good idea" Natalie said

At the Movie Therate

"Hey Josh" Hallie said

"Hallie!" Josh said in excitement and hugged Hallie "How are you?"

"Better thanks"

"How was your flight?" Josh asked

"Long" Hallie said

"You look great," Josh said and Danielle clears her throat "Not as good as Danielle"

"Of coarse not" Hallie said joking around

"So wanna play pool?" Natalie said

"Yeah let's go" Hallie said

"Remember I don't know how to but I am going to watch" Danielle said. Then Drake comes in
