An Open Book

Amelia stretched out her arms, "Come on, give me a hug!" 

Maddison reciprocated. She could not be happier to adhere to her request. Amelia was her savior!

If it wasn't for her, Maddison would have still been stuck in the toilet. Or worse, her nude photos might have already ended up in every single tabloid outlet. 

"Thank you, Amelia! You saved my life," Maddison whispered in her ear. 

"No need to thank me. Glad I was able to help," Amelia replied with a wide smile. 

Before their conversation could continue, one of Elias and Amelias' relatives came up to them. The party was getting noisy so Maddison couldn't really hear what they were saying. 

When the relative left, Elias turned back to Maddison. The initial smile he had was gone now, replaced with a frown. 

"What's wrong?" Maddison asked as she placed her hand on his arm. 

"I need to speak to a few relatives and family friends. Would you be alright alone?" He asked.
