Victoria's Pov

We finally pulled up in front of Daisy's house, and I was never so glad to get out of a car in my life.

Even though the issue was cleared, the tension and uncomfortable silence in there was suffocating.

Slowly Luka seemed to get back to normal, but the situation was too fresh to continue with our goofy conversations and jokes. We all got out of the car, and I grabbed the teddy bear I got for Zoey from my bag.

"Uh, hey Luka" I heard Lincoln call, but I tried not to make it obvious that I was eavesdropping.

"I apologized to Vic but I think you deserve one too... You know I only see her as a little sister, and I would protect her with my life. I wouldn't do or say anything to disrespect any of you in anyway"

"Aahh it's cool man. I know you" Luka offered him a smile, which he returned with his signature toothy grin.

I would've awed at the moment but I was too distracted by the door that swung open, revealing a beaming Daisy and my precious Zoey.

I did a little squeal as I ran towards them, everything from before long forgotten. I caught Zoey as she jumped on me, making me stumble a little but Luka was somehow behind me to hold me up.

"Sister Victoria I missed you sooo much" I squeezed her tightly as she went on about us not coming yesterday as promised. I placed her down and she ran to Lincoln, who she's already grown to love too.

"It's so nice to see you again," Daisy said as I hugged her. I can't say I was 100% okay with everything just yet, but it felt somewhat right to be with her.

"It's nice to see you too. I'm sorry I couldn't make it yesterday"

"That's fine dear. I know you have a life of your own" She smiled, then looked up to Luka who was watching Zoey weirdly. Even Lincoln looked at her strangely through his smiles and rants about fairy princesses.

"And you must be Luka! It's so nice to finally meet you" He snapped out of his daze as he sweetly greeted Daisy. She kissed both of his cheeks as she went on about how handsome he was. She then invited us inside where we all settled in the living room.

"Lincoln dear what happened to your face? " Daisy asked, surprised as if just noticing the bruise.

"He walked into a tree" Zoey giggled as she poked the bruise. Daisy didn't look convinced, but she just chuckled and let it go.
