"How come you don't talk about yourself?"

"What do you mean?" Nia asked taking her eyes off of the book that she was reading.

Pinky stopped strumming her guitar and gave her best friend a look. "I mean, you're probably the most lively and free-spirited girl I've ever meet. You always say that you want to make memories, and you always reminisce about the crazy stuff we did during our uni days but you never really opened up about your memories back home."

"You guys are my home Pinky." Nia went back to her book.

"You know what I mean." She heard Pinky set down the floor. Pinky was always a curious cat. Once she's curious, she can never stop asking questions. "You've been acting strange since your birthday and as your best friend, you're obliged to tell me whatever's going on with you. Wether you like it or not."

Nia set down her book and made space on the couch for Pinky to sit. "I may or may have not seen my old friends that morning."

"Oh my gosh! What did you do? Did you say "Hi"?, hug? high five? dance?" Nia looked at her weirdly.

"Dance?"

"Yeah! When I was younger, me and my best friends made a dance, and whenever we saw each other we would dance! I did it last year when I came home for the Christmas. The whole town was there! It was splendid! We were supposed to go out afterwards but I lost them in the crowd. It seemed like they were running away though." Pinky scratched her head confused.

Nia giggled at her silliness and hugged her. "Oh Pinky, you must be protected at all costs!"

"Thank you....I think." Pinky gasp before punching Nia.

"AWW! What was that for?" The brunette rubbed her red arm.

"Stop switching the subject! Now spill."

"Nothing happened! I'm not sure if they even saw me, or if they were there at all. I saw them across the street from Peggy Porchen, one second Embry and Quil were there than a second later, they were gone!"

Pinky perked up at the mention of the names. "So two exes huh?"

Nia almost choked on her own saliva. "Of course not-well-one of them sorta. I don't know! I cut all of them out my life several years ago." She immediately regretted saying that now that Pinky's eyes were practically bulging out of her eye sockets.

"What? Why? How? Tell me Nia! See this is what happens cause you never open up-"

"-It's complicated."

Nia cut her off. She really didn't want to  talk about it. And it did bother her for days. No, you've moved on from this, from him a long time ago. "I'm happy where I am right now Pinky. Especially with Nathan by my side." Don't look back Nia.
