Chapter 12
Lily
After I woke up from a nap, I went downstairs and noticed Emma and Phil (who looked overjoyed) talking to Dan and Eliza (who looked shock). I integrated myself into the little group.
" ... and then he got down on one knee," Emma was saying, "and asked the question that changed our lives!"
"Really?!" Eliza asked a little too excited - I think she had too much candy again.
Phil grinned. "Yes, I did. Emma was overjoyed."
Dan gave him a thumbs-up. "Nice job, flatmate."
"Thanks, Dan."
"Wait, Phemma is forever?!" I asked.
Emma grinned. "Yep!"
Phil whispered something to Emma, and she nodded. She took Eliza and I upstairs, and we watched YouTube videos until Dan and Phil came upstairs with some kind of announcement.
"Guys," Dan began, "Phil and I were discussing something, and we decided for all of us to move to America."
I almost dropped my iPad. "What?!"
"We want a new beginning," Phil said, "but we won't move until Emma and I are married. Keep in mind that we still have to find a house for all of us."
"Why America?" Eliza asked.
Phil shrugged. "I don't know. Just because."
"Okay."
Dan clapped his hands together. "Now, we must start packing."
We all nodded in agreement. I ran to my room and started packing. Eliza came in and sighed.
I paused. "What's wrong, Eliza?"
She sighed again. "I don't want to leave Britain."
"I don't either, but we can both have a new beginning in America."
"I know, but I love my life here."
"Eliza, I don't want to upset you even more, but we have no biological family or friends besides Emma - who's coming with us to America - here."
"I know, but I've lived in Britain my whole life."
"So have I."
"I see your point. Now, let's get to packing."
"Okay."
