When Luna and Prince decided to keep their relationship a secret from everyone including their friends, she hadn’t really considered the consequences of it — if any. She thought about how she’d have to deal with Stacy hating her more than she already did, or how her reputation would take a nosedive considering Luna was at the top of their class and Prince was the school’s resident drug dealer, or even their friends having a million questions because how the hell did the two arch nemisis of the group end up in bed together. Everything pointed to having a secret relationship with Prince, but if she knew Cass would react the way that she did, Luna would’ve told her after the first time. The storming out and the name calling took Luna by surprise because it was so unlike Cass, and it scared her to think her best friend was that against her relationship. The tension between them had become unbearable. Luna barely saw Cassie around this past week, and when she was around, Luna got the cold shoulder. She was ready to just hear all of what Cass had to say about it and apologize, so they could move past this. Luna missed her best friend. Tip-toeing to Cassie’s door, Luna was hesistant to knock but did it softly anyway. Here goes nothing. “Cass, can we talk? Please?”

Eli hesitated outside of Katie's door, his heart pounding in his chest. This was an entirely new experience for him, and the first person he could think to talk to about it was the one person who never judged him for still being a virgin. He swore off relationships because no one around him made them look inticing. If it weren’t for his sister and her messy love life, Katie and Leo definitely sold him on avoiding relationships like the plague. That was, until Eli met Georgia. She was beautiful, charming, smart, and matched his wit with ease. He had never felt this way before, and he was both excited and terrified. He had no idea what to do or how to handle his newfound feelings. Taking a deep breath, Eli finally knocked on Katie's door. He heard her voice from inside, telling him to come in. “You can’t start chatting shit or tell the other two,” he said, taking a seat on her bed as he did so. Eli lost his confidence as he felt the blush rush to his cheeks. “I need girl advice,” he mumbled so quietly he wasn’t even sure if Katie would understand what he said.

Luna never bothered much with their finances. Prince had more experience in making sure every dollar was accounted for and knowing where the money was going, so she just left him to it most of the time. She never asked many questions either because she trusted him. Every now and again, though, she’d have to check it out for herself. It had been a work-from-home day. There were brainstorms after meetings after emails. Work was starting to look crazy as they prepared for fashion week. Not only did she have to her literal work, but Luna also had to start sorting out her travel. She decided she ought to start thinking about it now before it became too last minute. Luna started to look over their accounts to check how much was there. Maybe they could turn it into a family vacation this time, but that thought was quickly lost when Luna noticed a large withdrawal. She knew she hadn’t done it which only left Prince as a suspect. Luna would’ve remembered if he said anything to her about taking out so much money. She went over every conversation they had in the past two weeks, and she still came up with nothing. Luna didn’t want to think the worst of Prince, but there was a nagging feeling that he’d done something she didn’t like and that’s why he didn’t mention anything to her about it. With a heavy sigh, Luna closed her laptop and sought out her husband. Give him the benefit of the doubt. He wouldn’t do anything stupid. She kept repeating that to herself as she searched around their home for him. Luna eventually found him in their bedroom. He looked happy to see her, but she wondered how long that would last. Luna approaches him, wrapping her arms around his waist. “Prince, can I ask you something?”

There were many things going through Luna’s mind. What the hell was Prince thinking? Why did he think he could do that? Why did he think he should do that? But most importantly, why did he get so angry at her for “lying” all those months ago when he’d been keeping something so much worse from her and for way longer? And as she laid there with Prince in her arms, neither one of them daring to break the silence, she just felt so damn angry at him. Not only for finding himself in a situation where someone’s life was on the line twice, but also because she’d allowed him to villainize her for months before he just up and left her over what seemed like a non-issue in comparison. 

Luna didn’t immediately run off to Spain. When she got home after arguing with Prince that morning, she turned off her phone, climbed into bed, and fell asleep for the first time in 24 hours. She had planned to keep ignoring him but she knew if she weren’t answering his texts or his calls after a while, Prince would just show up at her doorstep and that was the last thing Luna wanted. She didn’t want to see or talk to any of them. None of her friends bothered to feel angry at Nick for what he did because they were never on the other side of it. Her friends didn’t understand but her family did. Even though Luna had no intention on telling her brothers and father the real reason for her surprise visit, it still felt comforting to be around the people who understood her the most.

The last thing Luna expected was for him to show up at her doorstep in another country, and yet, here he was in Barcelona. She didn’t know what to say, at first. Luna eventually found her words — none of them nice. She wanted him to leave. She didn’t want to see or speak to him at all. Luna was kind enough to recognize he had nowhere else to go, so she was unfortunately stuck with him. For the next few days, Luna ignored him most of the time, and if she did have to speak to him she gave short, curt answers. It wasn’t until she had an hours long talk with her dad about everything going on that Luna was finally ready to have a real conversation with Prince.

Her dad went to go stay with one of her brothers so that she and Prince had the house to themselves. It was later at night when Luna finally text Prince to meet her outside on the veranda. She could hear him approach her, but she still couldn’t bring herself to really look at him. “I think I’m ready to talk to you.”

luna was well aware that she wasn’t the only girl prince had been with. she wasn’t even close to it, but what had pissed her off was learning that when she’d asked him about these other girls, he seemingly downplayed what actually went on. granted that she did inquire about his dating life pretty early on in their relationship, but the questions ‘have you ever a had a girlfriend’ and ‘were you ever close to being serious with someone’ lended themselves to pretty straightforward answers regardless of their status at the time. her interest had been peaked at first when matt and nick started getting into prince’s past flings. luna tried to keep her expression neutral at the mention of any girl prince had been with, but it was so hard with the jealousy brewing inside of her at every named mentioned. it was such a bad idea to hang out with just the boys, she thought, and her neutral expression had been thrown out of the window at the mention of prince actually liking someone. her face was a mix of disbelief and anger. prince never mentioned fancying anyone before. she didn’t understand why this was the first time she was hearing of sky. she only glanced at prince momentarily because the second matt and nick started listing off the things he’d done with this girl she couldn’t stand to look at him without wanting to punch his face in. there was only so much more luna could take of their teasing before she mumbled an excuse about homework and dipped. it was a bad excuse because she used it all the time. they all went to the same school, so it was obvious she never had as much homework as she let on, but she was just going to let prince deal with their suspicions if they had any. prince likely wouldn’t even have much to explain after tonight anyway because she was so angry that she decided that they were done. luna really couldn’t wrap her head around why prince felt the need to lie to her about this unless there was more to the story. judging by how defensive he got with matt and nick, it wasn’t hard to let her imagination run wild with theories. she felt her phone buzz in her pocket. luna was aware it was prince, so she didn’t even bother to read his text before telling him to fuck off. it was far too late to try and explain it all now. it was wishful thinking on her part that prince would actually fuck off, but if he wanted to fight about this, who was she to say no? “you’re such a fucking liar, d’you know that, prince? why is the first time i’m hearing about sky,” she paused to make a disgusted face. “from those gilipollas and not you?”

luna only understood what it was like to have loving parents. she was essentially the center of her parents’s universe as she was their youngest and only daughter. her dad, at times, had a strange way of expressing his love but her mom, luna’s mom embodied everything it meant to be a mother. she was kind, nurturing, selfless, patient and most of all — present. it hurt like hell she wasn’t anymore, but the little time they had together was infinitely times better than never having her at all. not having a mother was a pain luna would never truly be able to grasp, which meant when prince finally confessed to her the reason he’d been acting weird lately was because his mom showed up and he’d been helping her, she tried to be there for him. she should’ve understood prince’s willingness to help his mom but she didn’t. luna, honestly, couldn’t stand the woman. that didn’t stop her from being by his side as he dealt with it. she just tried to conceal her distaste whenever she could. luna hadn’t heard much from him the past couple of days, so she stopped by his flat to visit him. letting herself in, luna found her boyfriend and wrapped her arms around his waist, a pout on her lips. “what have you been up to, babe? i missed you.”

luna always had to force herself to have fun on this trip every year. she hated the fact that she had to be there because her best friend and soulmate died. it became easier to enjoy when they all started having kids because it made it feel more like a vacation with her friends than an annual funeral she had to endure. spending time with her makeshift family and their kids became the highlight of this trip. that was, until she walked into what could only be explained as a crime scene. leo giving them his best smile was enough to incriminate him if his red first and jake cradling his face didn’t confirm what she already knew. prince was seemingly more worried about his leg than anything else happening around them. leo’s explanation for why he was in pain is what really nearly sent her over the edge. luna’s first instinct was to be livid with leo because what the hell was he thinking when he dragged his broken leg across the room just to get into a fight. she went with the more rational part of her and decided they should just talk about it in the morning because if she spoke right now she’d just end up yelling, and that wouldn’t have helped anyone. she handed him crutches, not without letting him know that she had words for him in the morning. luna was so mad at him. after sending the kids away and going into their own room, she whipped around to face prince. “what are we going to do with that boy?”

leo had high hopes for his and katie’s first summer together as a couple. even though they were older now with real responsibilities, they could still savor their time together especially now that katie had one less thing to worry about since school was out. he’d stopped by her place after work just because he missed her. leo was also looking forward to discussing all of their plans. it took him back to the day katie had rambled on about all of the things she wanted them to do together right before he had to break the news that he had a girlfriend.  hopefully, they would be able to do it this year just as she’d imagined it. asking her what she wanted to do during her break from school, leo raised an eyebrow when she mentioned taking cheryl to new york to visit jake. if he were being honest, he kind of forgot that jake was even somewhat in the picture. “he’s the one who moved away. why do you always have to go to him?” leo asked with a frown.
