Chapter 45

I'd missed the start of the new semester, but because of my love of studying, it was easy to catch back up and my professors were incredibly understanding. About a week after we'd come back, I came home to find Ava getting all dolled up. 

"What are you doing?" I asked, setting my stack of books on the dining table. 

"Paulo is throwing a party, and the three of us are going," she said, adjusting the sleeves of her top in the mirror.

"What for?" 

She shrugged. "He said some of his other friends wanted to throw him one as a celebration of him not dying." 

"Will Chance be there?" My heart skipped a beat, and I hated the hope that grew there.  

"No, honey. Paulo invited him, but no," Ava said while sliding on her heels. 

I hummed and tried to push my extreme disappointment aside. "Well, then, can I invite Vanya and Terrance? I'm trying to turn them into friends."
