The next few weeks went by like a blur and before they knew it, it was time for thanksgiving break. Zyria hated calling it back because it was only five day break if you include the weekend. They come to school for Monday and Tuesday and then they are off until the next Monday.

"Are you guys going anywhere for thanksgiving" Kaia asked everyone as they sat in the cafeteria eating their food.

"I'm headed to North Carolina tomorrow to have thanksgiving with my family there" Hunter said as he wrapped his arm around Jada.

"I'm staying here. My family is having a small get together of just friends for thanksgiving on Wednesday and then we will go to my grandma house for our family thanksgiving on Thursday." Jada said as she shrugged.

"Ouu a Friendsgiving" Dakota said smiling as she ate her fries.

"Where are you guys going" Kaia asked Dakota and Knox who both shrugged.

"We don't really do thanksgiving at my house. Me and Knox just order some pizza and watch movies together." Dakota replied shrugging as she ate the last of her food.

"What about you Zyria?" Hunter asked her and Zyria looked up from the book she was reading as she ate her fries.

"Oh my mom is having family over for thanksgiving. We always this big thanksgiving lunch and then go to the movies." She replied before turning her eyes back to her book as she chewed more fries.

"You know we should do a friends giving together" Jada said and Kaia smiled.

"That's nice" Dakota commented and Hunter nodded.

"I mean I come back home on Friday so how about we do it on Saturday" Hunter suggested and they all nodded except Zyria, who was too into her book to be paying attention, and Knox who was on his phone.

"Zyria Knox what do you guys think" Kaia asked them making them both look up.

"Thats fine" Zyria said and Knox nodded before they both went back to what they were doing.

"Do we have to cook food" Hunter asked and Dakota shrugged before looking at Kaia who shrugged.

"Maybe we can do like a pot luck I guess and each bring a dish so we can eat." Kaia suggested and Hunter sighed.

"Sure we can do that but who's house are we doing this at" Dakota asked and everyone looked at each other.

"Why not at you and Knox house" Kaia suggested and Dakota frowned looking at Knox who was already looking up to her.

"No" Knox said harshly looking at Kaia before the bell rang for the end of lunch. Zyria stood up and grabbed her things before heading to her class quickly. Kaia frowned and left the cafeteria as she hurried after Zyria.

"God I hate school" Hunter said as they walked out of the building heading to their cars. Zyria handed her bag to Knox who was the closest to her. She pulled her hair into a messy bun and sighed.

"Thanks" she mumbled to Knox who blank stared her. She grabbed her bag and looked at the others who were talking about the Friendsgiving still.

"Okay but we need a house to have it at" Kaia said before turning to Knox.

"Why can't we have it at your house" She asked and Zyria looked at Knox curious to know the reason as well.

"Because I said so Kaia now leave it alone" he said before walking past her. Zyria frowned and turned to look at Kaia who was glaring angrily at Knox's back.

"Just leave it alone Kai." Zyria said softly to her as she touched her arm. Kaia sighed and nodded before looking at her.

"Can we have the Friendsgiving at your house?" She asked her and Zyria bit her lip.

"I'll have to talk to my mom about it but sure I guess" she replied and Kaia smiled before kissing Zyria's cheek.

"Thanks babes" she said and hurried off to talk to Dakota and Hunter. Zyria grabbed her phone out her back pocket and texted her mom asking her if it was okay.

"I'll see you guys later" Jada said waving at everyone before her and Hunter walked to his car getting in.

"Hey Knox" Someone said and Zyria turned to see Octavia heading toward him. Zyria rolled her eyes and walked to Kai who was waving bye to Dakota.

"Hey can you give me a ride home" She asked her and Kaia nodded. They grabbed their bags and walked to Kaia's car. Zyria looked back to see Knox talking to Octavia who was rubbing his arm.

"So what's going on with you and Dakota" Zyria asked Kaia who blushed and shrugged as she started the car.

"We just vibing honestly not together but fucking with each other" she said pulling out of the school parking lot.

"Not trying to rush things I feel you" Zyria said and Kaia nodded as she smiled.

"You want to do something tonight? We haven't hanged out lately" Kaia asked her and Zyria nodded leaning back in the seat.

"How about a sleepover at your house" she said and Zyria shrugging not caring much as her mind wandered.

"Zyria?" Kaia said making Zyria look up from her phone. Kai frowned before glancing back at the road as she stopped at a red light.

"Is that a yes to stopping for food and drinks for the sleepover?" Kaia asked her and Zyria mumbled a small yeah before she sighed looking out the window.

Kaia looked at her friend wondering what was going on with her but decided not to say anything. She sighed and pulled into a gas station lot.
