Everything was perfect!
I had spent the whole of the morning cleaning up, making a finger buffet for our guests and arranging an alcohol display in the new man hut as an extra surprise for everyone!
Alex had gone off to collect my cupcake order from one of the local bakers in town while I decided to shower quickly and change into a white floaty summer dress and sandals for the occasion.
Anna was the first to arrive to the gathering, along with her current boyfriend Key, which only increased my excitement by having her here with me before most of the others.
“I’ll give key a quick tour before you show us the garden!” Anna chirps, seeming just as excited as I am as Kev chuckles behind her at her enthusiasm.
Key was nice enough and seemed like the perfect match for Anna – not to mention how naturally well he seemed to get along with Alex, Jace and Del.
He fit perfectly into our lives unlike Clara…
I cursed myself remembering that I had, in fact, decided to extend the invitation to Clara to come over to our house warming. Not for her of course, but for Del, since I would hate to put him in an awkward position!!
If Clara is what Del wants at this time in his life, then all we can do is support him by tolerating her as best we can! Maybe even after the event at Rinnas place, the girl will come to her senses… although I doubt iL…
The door bell rings again, before I move to open it, revealing a very excited Erik as he rushes to embrace me in a warm hug
“BITCHHH! This house is to die for!” Erik pulls back and gasps loudly at the interior, before handing me a bottle of wine.
“You didn’t have to get me anything! Thank you Erik! I’ve missed you so much how was Hawaii?!” I ask, having missed him for the two weeks that he has been gone.
“It was incredible! You all have to come next time! You would love Hawail so much Lottie – pink flowers everywhere!” Erik states excitedly, as I giggle and nod eagerly at the suggestion….from the videos and pictures I had seen him post, it did look amazing!
I would love to travel more! Especially with my best–friends!
“It sounds like a plan!” I comment, before Erik claps his approval when seeing my living area and kitchen as I give him a small tour of the downstairs.
“So where is my other favourite girl?” Erik turns to me and grabs my hands, smiling, as I can’t help the cheeky grin that forms on my face.
“Clara? Oh she will be here soon!” I laugh out loudly, as Erik’s features fall into a hard glare
“Don’t you dare! Is she seriously coming? After what happened the other night too?” Erik complains, having been already updated on the drama in our group–chat
I laugh and nod in confirmation, as Erik groans dramatically which causes me to laugh clearly he wasn’t a fan of Clara either after meeting her only a handful of times himself…
“There he is! My bronzed Hawaiian king!” Anna’s voice fills the room, gaining our attention, as Erik laps up the attention and spins around to show off his golden tan as we all laugh.
The doorbell sounds out again, but before I can make my way towards it, Jace let’s himself in taking his time to observe the new place.
“Fuck! This is way better than I expected! Alex done a good job with this place!” Jace comments, as he heads through the hallway towards me – poking his head in and out of each room briefly as he passes.
Jace’s excitement and approval of the house brings another smile to my face- knowing that I can have our group around here whenever I want now!

As the evening progresses, I notice Alex trying to pry Del away from Clara for a private chat. However, Clara seems determined to keep Del by her side, constantly engaging him in conversation and preventing any opportunity for them to speak privately.
What has gotten into her now…
08:07
I catch Alex’s frustrated expression from across the room, and I make my way over to him. “Is everything okay, Alex? I noticed that she’s totally hogging him!” I whisper, as he glares in their direction.
He sighs, his eyes flickering with slight concern next. “I wanted to talk to Del about something important, but Clara seems to be doing everything possible to keep him close. It’s pissing me off now, Lottie.” He complains.
I place a comforting hand on his arm. “Maybe I can help? 1 can ask Clara to come have a chat with me? Give you some time?” I tell him my idea, as he eyes me warily for a moment.
“Yeah maybe that would work… do you mind? I know she’s brutal to endure.” Alex states bluntly, as I shake my head.
I can do this… maybe it will be good for us to talk anyway…
I nod slowly, before turning on my heels, approaching Del and Clara with caution. Dels gaze notices me first, his expression Bat and unreadable.
“Uhh I wanted to ask Clara if she would help me in the kitchen? We could have a girl talk?” I make my presence known, as Clara turns around to glance
over me from head to toe.
“It’s the decent thing to do Clara… you’ve been invited to her home at the end of the day…” Del makes his opinion known, before Clara can protest, which surprisingly causes her to sigh and nod.
fine!” She states, standing up to follow me towards the door…
It worked! Alex can eventually have a moment to speak to his friend! Find out whats gotten into him today!
Even I can sense that Del isn’t himself….
But now, I have left myself with the hard task of entertaining Clara for long enough… wish me luck!
