"In a few days, it'll be Matthew's birthday. You're coming, right?"
Lindey's words caught me off guard, reminding me that Matthew's birthday was indeed coming up.

I wasn't exactly treated like an outsider, but I still walked on eggshells, always worried that one wrong move might make them think less of me or, worse, dislike me.

If you don't come this year, Matthew will be really disappointed." I hadn't planned on going, but I'd already arranged for a gift to be delivered.
Now that she was asking directly, it was hard to say no, especially with Jace acting like a total maniac lately. I was worried that if I went to the Johnston house, he might pull something crazy, like drag me off to his bed.
But if I said I wasn't coming, Lindey would probably hit me with a million reasons why I should. So, I reassured her, "Lindey, of course I'll be there."
