Madeline hoped she had done a good enough job at hiding them. Sure, Briar had teased her of them a couple of times, but by the expression on Briar's face, Madeline was nearly certain she had successfully hidden something from Briar.
Well, up until she chose to tell Briar of course. Then, she didn't bother hiding anything.
Madeline pursed her lips, looking at Briar desperately, "Don't tell anyone. Not even Indiana and Adrian, alright?"
Briar nodded, "Of course. I won't, I promise."
Madeline exhaled, "We should probably get to eating, huh."
"Right," Briar said quietly, poking her food with her fork.
Meanwhile, with Indiana…
Indiana took a trip to Jonathan's room once she had made sure she looked alright, and like she hadn't been crying her eyes out the past hour.
Fortunately, he had told her where his room was in case she ever wanted to find him.
"Jonathan?" She asked, knocking on his door.
