Aphmau POV

I was sitting on a lunch table outside, with my new friends I made; Teony and Molly. I think they joined this school just after I left since they didn't seem to recognise me like everyone else, which made me want to know them even more. I didn't see Kiki, Emmalyn Zoey or Lucinda anywhere or Laurance and the gang, I think they took a few days of from school resting from the past events.

I sighed resting my head on my hand, leaning my elbow on the table. Today was completely boring, but I was feeling somewhat relieved that 'they' weren't in school today, it just makes my day much easier.

"Do you want to come over to my house for a small girlish sleepover, yesterday was my birthday. And I guess I just want to spend some time with you guys." Teony and Molly nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, we can do all sorts of stuff like watching movies, having pillow fights, making huge forts." Molly squealed excitedly. I guess she's up for it.

"What about you Teony?"

"I wold love to have a sleepover, gives us time to know each other better." I smiled in agreement, it does give us time to know each other well enough that we could become great friends.

We ate lunch while gossiping, they updated me on the latest news. They also informed me how Laurance and his girlfriend; Lillian are the schools 'It' couple, which caused a couple of more cracks in my heart, but I ignored my feelings and focused on reality. A few hours passed by, and by the time I knew it, it was already time for the sleepover. I got everything ready and set up in the living room. I also changed the house a bit to make it look a bit different from what I'm used to.

Teony and Molly arrived, they set their things up and dressed into their PJ's to get a little comfortable. We started of with a few games, like truth and dare or pin the bottle, which was a lot of fun, we spilled a few secrets about ourselves, luckily they never asked anything about my past life, which is good. We also ended up doing dares; including us going outside and trashing people's houses, I was chickening out, but Teony managed to drag me out. After we got home we decided to watch the vampire diaries since we missed a few episodes. It was ironic actually, considering vampires are actually real.

I was munching on a full bag of popcorn when the doorbell suddenly rang. Someone's paying me a visit already?

"I'm not getting it! You go." I said to Teony with a mouth full of popcorn.

"Ugh fine. Pause the episode." I rolled my eyes pausing it in front of her, when she went to the door I un-paused it carrying on watching the latest episode.

The door opened and I heard a couple of voices and decided to listen in, Molly did the same thing.

"Yes? How may I help you?" Teony answered.

"Uh, who are you?" A familiar feminine voice spoke, I creased my eyebrows.

"Oh, I'm Teony. I just with my friend who lives here, we're having a sleepover."

"Uh, can I see your friend?" She questions.

"Yeah, sure?" Teony said slightly confused as to why she wants to see me, I was confused as well.

"Molly, I'm just going to get a drink, I'll be right back." I got up from the couch, untangling my legs from the blanket.

"Get me one as well!." She shouted and I nodded my head.

I trudged to the kitchen to get a drink of water, I suddenly felt sweaty in the living room. I don't know why I'm nervous, I don't think I should be.

"Where's your friend?" A another feminine voice spoke, why does these voices sound so familiar.

"Oh, uh she's in the kitchen getting a drink, she should be here in a few minutes. Why don't you guys sit down?" Molly questioned but they declined.

"We only just want to see the person who 'lives' here now." The lady said with slight irritation in her voice.

Why don't I just go and check it out? Nothing to be afraid about, right? But then I remembered that I have to give Molly a drink.

"Molly! Why drink do you want?" I shouted.

"Strawberry milkshake!" I rolled my eyes with a smile on my face, she said she had some strange addiction with strawberry milk.

I grabbed the glass and walked to the living room I handed the glass to Molly who took it appreciatively.

"So who was at-"

"A-Aphmau?" I turned my body around.

I covered my mouth in shock while staring at the people in front of me. My knees felt weak like I could just tumble over any second.  Before I could say anything I was first engulfed in a group hug by Zoey, Kiki, Emmalyn and Lucinda, even Katelyn, Kawaii Chan and Cadenza joined in as well. I didn't know what to say, I was speechless, I didn't think I would be meeting them now, I wasn't prepared.

My eyes was drowning in tears, they all hugged me tight and I hugged them with equal love.

"A-Aphmau, where have you been?" Emmalyn asked breaking from the hug.

The question caught me of guard, they knew I was kidnapped, but they didn't know the reason why, and Aaron said I couldn't tell anyone about the whole thing, which means including them.

"I was, uh. I- After I got kidnapped, Aaron sent me to some solitary confinement, but I managed to escape and get back on my feet. I wanted to change myself up a bit so I dyed my hair. Heh." There eyes widen.

"You Were Trapped In A Cell For A Year?! Why did they kidnapped you?" Katelyn growled, I feel so bad for lying to them.

I sucked in some air, "I don't know." I gulped looking down.

"I doesn't matter right now, but what I care about is that your here, in the flesh. We thought we lost you, we searched everywhere yet we couldn't find you. I feel so bad that you were trapped up in some stupid cell for a whole year!" Zoey said in annoyance. I could feel the guilt arising from my body, but I can't tell them the truth.

I sniffed away some tears. "So, Where are the guys?" Their heads snapped up.

"Uh well, Garroth went to visit your mothers grave to pay respect and put some more flowers." Kawaii Chan spoked up.

I smiled, at least I know she's loved.

"Dante, Zane and Travis are dealing with some random business." Lucinda added. I nodded

"What about Laurance?" I asked quietly looking down.

They all gave each other a look. "He went out on an anniversary date with Lillian." Kiki spoked in a squeaky voice.

Well there goes the other half of my heart.

"Oh well, do you want to join our sleepover?" I asked gloomily.

"Yeah, sure!" Zoey clapped her hands together excitedly.

I introduced the girls to Teony and Molly, and they seemed to be getting along pretty easily, in fact too easily. We all had a good time, I talked to the girls about keeping my presence a secret from the guys, I wanted them to find out themselves. Unfortunately Molly and Teony both had an urgent call from their parents, saying they needed to go and the girls fell asleep on the couches. I decided to sleep on my bed, since I never had a proper sleep. I closed the door and turned of my light, I turned my lamppost on since I wanted to have the chance to read a few pages of my grandma's diary, I've always seen her write in this diary, but never have I ever looked inside it.

I opened the diary to the first page excited to read what she's written inside, but there was nothing. I skimmed through every page and every single page was blank. This doesn't make sense, if I saw my grandma write in this very Diary, then why isn't there anything written?

She said that this Diary will have every solution to my problems, and right now I need the help.
