    Summary

    Diego elbows Ava lightly in the side to get her attention. "Ava? How come you don't have a boyfriend?" he asks.

    What if it’s because of him? What if she’s so busy always trying to make sure that he’s taken care of that she’s missing out on all the things other nineteen-year-olds get to do?

    "Huh?" There's a pause, and he can almost see Ava's brain stutter into stillness before lurching back to life. "Well, um, Diego, it's like — I'm really — if I thought that — see, it’s more like —"

    He hears Lilith scoff and turns towards her. "It's not that hard. Kid, Ava's down bad for —"

    "Shut up, Lilith," Ava grinds out, cutting her off.

    After leaving St Michael’s, Ava does everything she can to support Diego, including taking him to extracurriculars. Beatrice is his aikido instructor, and it changes everything.

    Summary

    Lilith was her best friend. 

    Her sister. 

    "I'll let you choose where to eat as long as you don't bring up your hot British neighbour again." 

    Oh, how she hated her. 

    "I haven't even mentioned her that much!"

    "Her eyes were so intense, Lilith." Lilith began in a mocking tone. "The leather jacket she wore was so fitting Lilith. Her neck was so-" 

    "Oh my god stop!" Ava slapped the button for the elevator. "I do not sound like that."

    Summary

    On a long list of terrible ideas, Imogen reflected, this particular choice on her part really took the top spot.

    Her therapy session that week had gone well. Really well, actually. So well that when her therapist had suggested Imogen "take a small step out of her comfort zone", Imogen had seized her rare confidence and decided she’d visit a coffee shop.

    A loud coffee shop. Open to the public.

    One with other people in it, to be clear.
