Felix jumps up and down in the living room of his new house, smiling at the TV screen.

"I did it! I finally got five stars on Price Tag!" The boy exclaims.

Athena faces the screen, noting the flashing icon showing his achievement on Just Dance, and simply nods. "Cool."

"Cool? Cool? This is not just cool. I've been trying to do this since I was in Australia! This is a monumental moment."

"Dude, I've had five stars on this song since I got the game. How did it take you so long?" Athena questions.

"Not everyone is a Just Dance champion like you," Felix huffs.

Athena shrugs and then goes back to facing her phone. For the past hour or so, Athena's eyes were glued to her cellular device. She scrolled through her messages carefully, unsure of what to do about them.

10:50am

Athena let's out a giggle at her friends texts before sighing. Of course she wanted to hang out with them but she hadn't since the accident. Everything between them was weird and awkward and she just didn't believe she should hang out with them when they knew of the horrible thing she had done.

Felix watches her and tilts his head in confusion. "Are you planning on marrying your phone? Why are you so obsessed with it today?"

Felix hoped he didn't come off as rude. He really didn't mean to but for some reason, not having Athena's undivided attention was bothering him. Though, it really shouldn't be since they're only friends and she had only been looking at her phone recently not the whole time they were hanging out.

Athena just smiles softly. "Sorry Felix, I was just thinking."

"About what?"

Shaking her head she replies, "nothing really."

After they sit in silence for little while longer, Athena finally comes to a decision. The time was almost two-thirty and Athena was sure that her group of friends probably had just arrived as they usually were never on time for gatherings like these. She turns to Felix and smiles brightly.

"Felix, what do you think about meeting some new friends?"
