Guys, I'll be updating a lot after Thursday (May 19th), but I may not update as much until then. I'm sorry. I have a lot of drawings to get done. This is what happens when you try to be nice. This is what happens when you make too many promises, that you probably won't be able to keep.

Please, help me. XD

A word of advice; Don't ever promise to do something that you might not be able to do.

Your POV:
I glanced at the cart next to me. It had the number, 17 on it. I knew that that was the cart Scott shoved me into on the day I met Adrienette.

On the cart, there was the book that Fawn was reading when I met her.

What would I do to be with them again?

I sighed, continuing to walk with Aspen and Travis through the silent library.

We walked up the stairs to the second floor, and I noticed that they were taking me to the nook behind the bookcase; The one that we made our hideout, our outcast clubhouse.

The wheels of the bookcase was gone. So was the sign. When Fawn's mother became the new librarian after Mrs. Lentay passed away, Fawn made the nook a secret. It was only known by few, and it truly became our own secret hideout. In fact, a lock to it was added. Us three outcast musketeers were the only ones who had keys to it, besides Fawn's mother. We added pillows, a rug, a chandelier, a desk; everything we could imagine. After all, it was quite big, for a nook.

Aspen pulled something out of his pocket. I looked at it, seeing what it was.

It was my golden key to the nook, put on a chain.

I gave Aspen the key before I left. I told him to take good care of the secret hideout. If any of the outcasts were to return to the nook, he should contact me.

I was assuming that Aspen was going to show me that the nook was in good shape. Maybe he added something, or painted the walls, and decided to surprise me and show me it.

I didn't know why Aspen made it such a big deal, but I played along. Travis stood behind me, placing his hands over my eyes.

"Travis, what's going on?" I asked. I laughed.

They did not answer. I heard the noise of the key turning in the keyhole on the bookcase, and I heard the rush of the air as the bookshelf swung open.

Travis tapped my elbow, ushering me to step forwards. I did so, and they followed behind me. I heard the bookshelf shut behind me, and I knew that we were all now in the nook.

"Are you ready?" Travis asked into my ear.

I bit my lip, wondering what I had to be ready for. "I don't know. I guess I am."

I heard Travis laugh. "Okay. Three..."

"Two..." Aspen said.

"One!" They said in unison.

As soon as they uncovered my eyes, I gasped. My heart stopped, and it was as of time itself had come to a halt.

What was there?

Or, shall I say, who was there?

It was none other than the outcasts...

My best friends, that I haven't seen for two years.

Tears threatened to fall. My bottom lip quivered, my heart began to pound against my chest. I was overwhelmed with joy. They to, were near tears. Fawn couldn't help it, and she broke out into a fit of laughter mixed with tears.

Even though we talk all the time, on the phone or on social media, it isn't the same. It still keeps the bond between us, but when we are together, nothing can stop us. When we are together, we can express more, see each other in detail, experience things with each other.

There was no other reaction that I would have. There was only one thing I could think to do.

I leaped forward, wrapping my arms around my friends, tears streaming down my cheeks.

"Hello, queen of the outcasts," Adrienette whispered into my hair.

"The outcasts are back together!" Fawn said as one of her tears hit the crook of my neck that she had nuzzled into.

I hugged them tighter, not caring if they were uncomfortable. All I cared about was that they were here, with me.

:P I don't know if I made the surprise too obvious. I probably did, didn't I?

Anyways, thanks for everything, guys. You guys are amazing, and I hope that you have an amazing day or night. Love ya! Bai, unicorns! <3
