We no longer fit in a booth ere all together

I slipped into the nearest empty seat that was between Seb and Tori, and Kai pulled Ivy up

“We’ve got a date,” he explained with a grin, sweeping her away before anyone could say anything

Tori turned to me “That was you, wasn’t it?”

I reached over for the white wine that was placed in front of me and merely smiled

“Okay, are we all here? Can I talk about my problems now the sensible one has shown up?” Saylor de her hands out She was in the center of the table and looked around at all of us

“Nobody cares about your probleuy in a relationship again, because that was fun”

“You’re a bitch,” Saylor said without batting an eyelid

“Thank you, I know”

Kinsley’s brother, Colton, looked between them “Why am I here?”

“You had nothing better to do tonight,” Josh reminded him “And if I’m here, you’re here”

“You’re here because Holley doesn’t want to talk about Sebastian, so by inviting you all, she gets out of it,” Tori said, lifting her cocktail glass to her lips “Tell ”

Everyone looked atSeb, who had his eyebrow cocked and his lips curled on one side

“She’s not wrong,” I said with a shrug “Although I a to think I’ve seen a little too much of him today”

Everyone laughed

Except Saylor

“Great, nice, now my problems, please?”

“What’s wrong?” Kinsley asked, always the peacemaker “It must be bad if you waited for Holley to show up”

“It is It’s awful Really, really awful”

And people said I was dramatic

We all waited, and when Saylor didn’t say anything, we stared at her

“Well?” Colton asked “Care to elaborate?”

Saylor shot him a dark look “Fine I can’t afford my apartment anymore”

None of us said a word

“Hello? Anyone? Does nobody understand how that is the end of the world?”

“She for real?” Tori asked, looking at me

“Why are you looking at me? I have no idea,” I replied “Why do you need a roommate?” I asked Saylor

“My landlord is putting my rent up by two hundred dollars It’s extortion, and I won’t pay it” She downed the last of her wine and put the glass down
