CHAPTER 12

My eyes were deceiving me. It was only Sarah standing there.

Adrian and I gave each other a knowing look. We totally got each other. As my cheeks started turning a bit rosy, I scooted away from Adrian, feeling really embarrassed. I quickly looked over at Sarah, praying she wouldn't ask about our private moment.

But nope, she went right in. "What's up with the two of you?" she asked with a sneaky smile.

I tried to pretend I had no idea what was happening and acted chill. "Nothing. We were just soaking up the chill by the stream."

Adrian seemed to get the hint and left us alone. Sarah wasn't buying it though and kept pushing. "C'mon, Lily. I can tell there's something else going on here, right?"

I stood up, feeling uneasy and refusing to meet her eyes. "Sarah, seriously, it's nothing. Let's not make a big deal out of it."
