Chapter 15: A Wild Party

*Emory’s POV*

Emory spent the next week going back and forth about what to do. Some days, she woke up filled with determination. She was going to *make* Ken talk to her. He needed to confront his feelings, even if those feelings weren’t necessarily in her favor.

On other days, she felt nothing but dread and misery. The other students still hated her, and the only person she had in the world was Misaki. Misaki that is, who had spent the last three days in detention for the fighting fiasco with the other students.

When she returned on Friday, Emory rushed to her, and the pair linked arms before taking their seats. Misaki leaned over. “Okay, so get this. You and I are going to a party this weekend.”

Emory’s eyes widened. “What, seriously? Who? Where?” She glanced around the room. “I thought everyone here hated me.” They weren’t overly fond of Misaki, either, but Emory kept that note to herself.
