While Luna's words made sense, it also begged a question: Who would take the final spot for the evenly split party.
Lily, Luna, Adam, Rachel and Aria all began to silently eye each other up The quiet was heavy, each of them waiting for someone else to speak first. Glances turned sharper. No one was backing down.
Rachel finally broke the silence. "So... we all want to go, right?"
Lily gave a slight nod. "Obviously."
Adam crossed his arms. "Of course. You think I'm gonna let Leo walk off and leave my niece alone with him?"
Both Penny and Leon briefly flashed Adam a strange look but didn't say anything for the time being.
Aria's gaze lingered on Leo, then shifted to the others. "It makes sense for any of us to go. That's the problem.
"You're all acting like I'm about to explode if left alone," Leo muttered under his breath.
Penny, seated comfortably beside him, nudged his arm. "No offense, but you kind of give off that vibe."
