Cap continued to eat and didnât answer for a bit.
âWell, my parents are going on tour soon and leaving the four of us alone for about a month.â
Lily nodded along as Cap spoke, âHey, donât you have a test tomorrow?â After considering it for a while, she shrugged, âOh well, if you fail, itâs not my problem,â she joked.

Aria shook her head in disbelief, but then thought. Of course Jenna would be upset, she would have every right to be. But Aria was very tired, it felt like this weight was wearing her down and her stomach was all knotted up, constantly. Maybe they should just tell the truthâŠ. she shook her head again.
âEven if I do want to do that, itâs not just my decision to make. The others are a part of this too.â
Lily nodded thoughtfully. âWell, maybe we should talk to the others together. But, the point is that we need to take action soon or this is just going to get worse.â
As the two stepped out of the car, both Aria and Lilyâs phones went off and a chill went down Lilyâs spine.

Lily shook her head apologetically at the girl. âReally, you did what anyone else would have. I donât know what your parents have said to you, butâŠitâs not your fault, okay?â
Elsa turned and put her arms around the maid. She still was crying. But she really needed a hug âmama and papa.. They donât understand..â
Lily leaned down and hugged the crying child. âI know they donât, but, you have to admit that this whole situation is completely new territory for your parents. For all of us, really. I wish there was some way you could see anna and Iâm so sorry you have to go through this.â

âOh.â Lily stared down solemnly at her hands. Sheâd heard the story of how Elsa accidentally hurt Anna and was therefor confined to her room until she could control her powers. âItâs not your fault, okay? You were only trying to save her. Besides, youâre just a kid and you shouldnât have something this heavy weighing down on you.â
Elsa closed her eyes. She still wouldnât look at her. It was her fault. And there was no way to convince her otherwise

âI didnât mean to hurt her.â Elsa answered. She still wouldnât look at Lilly. âIt was an accident!â

Once they reached the park, Cap had devoured half of her ice cream. She immediately went for the swings and continued to eat. âThis is perfect.â
Lily grinned as she sat down on the swing seat next to Cap. âIt really is! Okay, so, since we finally have time to actually talk...whatâs new in your life? Other than school, obviously.â

Lily shook her head confidently, âNo way. I wouldnât do that to you.â She took a moment to observe to room. Ice coated almost the entire floor and the majority of the furniture. She shook away the eerie feeling that was growing stronger by the minute and searched for a conversation topic, âYour sister gets pretty lonely too, ya know? I try to keep her company as much as I can, but she really misses you.âÂ
Elsa looked away. She was going to start crying again. She hated crying because it made the ice worse. But it came anyway âI didnât mean it.â

Lily smiled cheerfully and stepped into the girlâs room, closing the door behind her. âOf course I came! Why wouldnât I?â She made her way over to Elsaâs bed and took a seat beside her, glad that she had decided to show up today.
Elsa fallowed her back to the bed and climbed on. âI thought you might not come back, because you had finally realized that I was dangerous.â She shrugged

âYes, I do Miss.â Scarlet smiled, her fingers playing and tugging at her skirts as she watched the other. âBut Iâm glad it doesnât frighten you. I always feel horrid when I scare someone. I truly donât mean it⊠Oh! Do you live out here too?â
âOh, I was just...â What was she doing out here? Sheâd only been trying to escape the chaos of her momâs house party. She didnât realize how deep into the woods sheâd wandered. â...taking a walk.â She looked curiously at the strange girl standing in front of her, still unsure if she should run away or not.Â
âWhy? Do you live out here?â She couldnât imagine anyone living out in the middle of this forest. There was something slightly ominous about it.
prxmroseeverdeen:
âThank you. Sheâs nicer than you think.â The woman stopped over when Prim was seven after her father died in a mine explosion, just to make sure her mother was alright. She never really came back though, which her and her sister found funny.
She started looking in the windows, just to see if she was home. âWeâre both gonna get into so much trouble. What if we get arrested for breaking and entering or something?â That wouldnât be very good, especially with living in the Seam, where their reputation (that was not true) was that Seam kids stole everything they could get their hands on. If they did steal, it was usually them picking through garbage, if they were desperate.Â
Maybe this wasnât a good idea. But, really, it was too late. She already climbed the fence and is already inside. Thereâs no going back.Â
She sighed. âYou know what I mean. Come on, letâs just grab the toys and get out of here.â
Lily observed the house carefully as she approached it. âWeâre not gonna get arrested, okay?â She said, mostly to herself. The truth was, if they werenât extremely careful, they could get arrested. The thought made Lily anxiously nauseous.
She attempted to shake off the uneasy feeling that was creeping up on her and circled the house, in search of a conveniently placed window. Not finding one, she made her way to the front door and pulled a bobby pin from her hair. As Prim nervously watched out for people, Lily jiggled the bobby pin in the lock. Sheâd never picked a lock before but it seemed like it should be pretty strait forward.
After about ten minutes of desperately attempting to unlock the door, she finally managed to successfully pick the lock and open the door. âPrim,â she smiled proudly, âI did it!â

âWell⊠we donât have to?â She took a large spoonful of ice cream. âWe could go to the park or something.â
âThat sounds like a great plan!â She skipped down the sidewalk and towards the park. It wasnât until Theyâd left the house that Lily truly realized how long sheâd been cooped up inside.Â
prxmroseeverdeen:
âAre you still sure? People have alarm systems and things.â Prim felt awful for even being here. She was pressured way to easily when it came to her friends. But at least they werenât just breaking in to steal for their own pleasure.
âAnd sheâs not an old witch. She might not be the sweetest at times. But that doesnât mean sheâs some evil witch.â Maybe something bad happened to her a long time ago and taking things from the younger kids was all she really had left to do.
She started climbing until she got to the top and jumped down. She was an excellent climber, if she did say so herself. All those days climbing trees with her father paid off. âRobin Hood had a bow and arrow. We donât. And he took money.â
Lily felt the pang of guilt that she always felt when she hung out with Prim. The other girl was just such an undeniably good and kind person that it often made Lily feel inferior by comparison. She shook away her thoughts and focused on the task at hand.
âOkay, fine, maybe sheâs not an old witch but she still shouldnât be stealing from children.â Lily looked the house over, now growing increasingly anxious that perhaps the old woman did have an alarm system. That would be an absolute nightmare. But, they had to try.
As Lily grew more nervous, she took a deep breath and imagined what they would do in that situation. It was simple really: The two girls would run like mad as far away as they possibly could and never tell anyone what theyâd tried to do. Convinced that she possessed a foolproof plan, Lily walked towards the house with shaky feet.Â
She rolled her eyeâs at Primâs Robin Hood comment, âYouâre way too literal.â

Listening adamantly to her, Kurtâs foot swayed lightly to some unknown tune and eyed her with a growing warm sympathy seeing how nervous she was right out of the gate. Â As he suspected, she was new. Lima wasnât a big town. Â The people in the hallways werenât vast enough he didnât recognize their faces even if he couldnât name the bulk of them. She, however, was someone heâd never seen. Â Finn swung into view when she mentioned him and he clamped his front teeth together, lips pulling back in a wince as he saw the failing motions Rachel was making as she went on. Even if she dropped her tone to one of those harsh whispers? Â Kurt could imagine they were dripping with Rachel-infused venom to drive home whatever point she was trying to make.
âPoor guy, he means well but when youâre in line for one of Rachelâs meltdowns? Itâs like trying to escape an on-coming train when your feet are tied to the tracks. Â Nooo chance in Hell,â he mumbled leaning a shoulder towards Lily to offer up his observation for her ears alone to hear. âThis oneâs my fault.. Â Oops,â smirking guiltily at Lily, Kurt tried to pull off an innocent shrug but yep..Finnâs torture was all his doing. Not that he meant to send Hurricane Rachel Finnâs way. But was he horrible that he was glad he was apparently missing the eye of the storm? Â âAt least he talked you into joining before his day went South? Â We might need someone to fill in if she goes..yep..right on time,â swinging up one hand from his knee, Kurt followed the path of Rachel as she stalked out of the room with a wave of his fingers. Â Nothing new under the sun and the serious lack of surprise on his face said so.
Sighing deep, he rolled his eyes ceilingward before picking up the conversation as if he never let it trail off.  âYes. We are.  Scenes like that happen on the daily..or hourly depending on the day but weâre close. Sorry if that was your first impression but you donât have to be nervous,â he glanced down to her hands and back. âTheyâre only looking at you like that because they have no idea who you are. Fix that?  And youâll have nothing to worry about.  Finn already asked you here so thatâs a plus.  I promise.  Youâre going to be okay.  Especially in the room of Misfit Toys. Or did he not fill you in on that part?â  Finn talked up Glee Club like it was the End All Be All of McKinley clubs.  Bless him for doing it..but..if anyone was going to give her a rude awakening that she landed herself in the room full of outcasts who all found each other because Glee Club was the only place they ever truly felt at home?  Unfortunately for Finnâs attempts, Kurt was going to be the one to fill her in.  Unintentionally or just for conversationâs sake?  Who  knew? Blame it on bluntness born out of..well..Kurt being..Kurt.
Lily furrowed her eyebrows in confusion and attempted to make sense of what Kurt was saying. She followed his gaze to where the girl heâd referred to as Rachel, was storming out of the room in a huff and leaving a confused Finn standing by the door. This happened daily? How did they ever get anything done? And, what did Kurt mean by, âthe room of misfit toysâ? Finn had made the glee club sound so...cool. Of course, Lily had been suspicious when heâd told her that glee was the most popular club in the school. Heâd told her that because glee club would get to visit New York for nationals, other students envied them.Â
âSo, Iâm guessing you guys arenât as...popular as Finn made you seem?â She was careful with her words, not wanting to offend Kurt. It didnât necessarily bother Lily that there were less students than she expected, but it was slightly uncomfortable to feel like so much of an outsider. It was comparable to not understanding an inside joke that everyone else seems to understand. Another thing that made her nervous was the thought of being asked to sing in front of the group.Â
With a deep breath, she pushed all of the negative and anxious thoughts out of her mind and just focused on one problem at a time. âSo...do I introduce myself to all of them, or...?â She asked, partially to Kurt and partially to herself. It felt like the entire room was staring at her and she felt the need to break the ice somehow. She assumed that Mr. Schue would introduce her anyway, but he seemed to be running late so maybe she should take matters into her own hands.

The following day, Lily ambled up the stairs to Elsaâs room. She casually dusted a painting beside the girls door as she waited for a couple maids to pass by her. When Lily was sure the maids were gone, she slowly opened Elsaâs bedroom door and peered her head inside, âCan I come in?âÂ
Elsaâs face lit up when she saw Lilly. âYou came!â She jumped down from the bed and ran over. âPlease, come in!â
Lily smiled cheerfully and stepped into the girlâs room, closing the door behind her. âOf course I came! Why wouldnât I?â She made her way over to Elsaâs bed and took a seat beside her, glad that she had decided to show up today.

âIf we tell, I donât think it will just be the four of us that are hurt⊠this town is made of secrets,â Aria laughed shakily, thinking of all the terrible things in this place. She couldnât wait to get out, one day.
âYou can keep yourself safe,â Aria replied to Lilyâs question, and a string of beautiful memories tied together with nostalgia came rushng back to her. It sounded terrible, but part of her wished that sheâd never even been friends with Alison. Then, maybe she wouldnât be in this giant mess. Of course, she couldnât blame Alison totally. But still.
Ariaâs life might have changed in a horrible way forever, but that didnât mean Lilyâs had to. âThe only way to really be safe from A is to not have any big secrets that could ruin peopleâs lives..â
Lily stared down at her hands as she attempted to make sense of this surplus of new information. This whole situation was overwhelming in a very serious way. The only even slightly logical explanation is that someone has been stalking these girls since before Allison died. The thought caused a shiver to run down Lilyâs spine.
âWell, now that I know about this,â she wrung her hands nervously as she spoke, âit would be wrong to just abandon you guys. Please, let me help you.â She pleaded, not entirely sure if she truly wanted to help or if she just felt obligated to. Either way, it was the right thing to do.
âAria...do you think it would be best if you just told Jenna yourselves? I know that sheâll be upset but itâs better than her finding out from A and it would be one less thing that A can use as leverage.âÂ

âItâs the best. I canât get through the day without it.â The cashier handed them their ice cream and Cap handed over her credit card. âI canât wait to dig into this.â
âThis is probably the best idea Iâve ever had.â Lily jumped giddily as the cashier handed her the ice cream. As the two exited the ice cream parlor and made their way back to the car, Lily realized something. âI really donât want to go back home yet.â
trxpezists:
âWell, âat depends. What act would like to focus on or do you already have one?â She looked like the type that had one in mind. Perhaps tightrope walking or she may even want to tame bears or lions. The circus could use both and if this girl liked trapezes then that was always open too. Actually, Wendy figured sheâd enjoy the company of the lass. There werenât too many female performers around.
âOf course. Most of the traininâ takes place in that big tent over there so letâs head towards it.â She pointed shortly after at the vividly colored marquee; however, highly doubted that the newbie could miss it.
âOh, well Iâm the newest trapeze artist,â Lily answered meekly, but was finally begging to relax slightly. Sheâd been anxiously wandering for too long now and was relieved to finally get up the courage to ask someone for directions.Â
Of course, she was still extremely nervous to be the new kid, but had decided to be as social as possible throughout this adventure. Which, she was sure, would prove to be more difficult than it sounded. âSo, what is your act?â She questioned, pulling her attention back to the stranger standing in front of her.
