Jasmine: SOS. Emergency. Call me. Something's happened to Anthony.
(9:42 p.m.)

Pippa's eyes widened as she dialed Jasmine's number. "Jazzy! What's up, what's wrong?! Where's Anthony?" Pippa looked up as Lin came into that room. Lin came and sat beside her when he noticed her concerned expression.

"Pippa, Pippa, slow down." Jasmine said, it sounded like she'd been crying.

"Are you crying?" Pippa whispered.

"Unimportant if I am or not." She sniffed a few times.

Pippa sighed. "Well, Love, what happened?" Lin's hand dropped to Pippa's knee and he kissed the side of her head.

"It'll be okay." He whispered.

"An-Anthony got hurt pretty badly, Pippa, I don't know where he is, I don't know what happened, but--"

"Well, how do you know he's hurt then?"

"Jonathan texted me, saying that he was taking Anthony to the hospital, but he didn't tell me which hospital or why, and he's not answering my calls!" Jasmine's breaths started skipping.

"Hey, hey, breathe. I'll figure this out and come pick you up, okay? We'll go find Anthony, it'll be fine, I promise." Pippa said calmly into the phone.

"Okay, thank you, Pippa."

"Of course. Love you."

"Love you too." Pippa said as she hung up the phone.

"What happened?" Lin asked.

"Something with Anthony, I have to go track down Groff." Pippa started typing away at her phone and held it back up to her ear as it rang. "C'mon, Groff, answer me." She mumbled.

"Hello?" Groff asked.

"Yes, Groff, hello! Where are you and Anthony?!"

"I can't tell you." Groff stated. "I'm sorry, Pippa, it's for your own health, I can't."

"So why can't you tell Jazzy?"

"Because I knew she'd tell you!" Jonathan fought back.

"Okay, fair, but can you please tell her so that she won't call me crying and hyperventilating? It's breaking my heart."

"She's crying?" Groff asked.

"Yes! So please just call her and explain what's going on."

"Okay, I'll talk to her."

"Thanks so much, Groff." Pippa exhaled a breath of relief.

"Of course."

~~~~~

It would be an understatement to say that Pippa went to sleep nervous. Not knowing what was happening with Anthony, Jasmine, or Groff, not having heard a word from any of them.

"Pip, it'll be okay. I promise." Lin said, giving her a kiss.

"Will it be though, what if--" She was cut off by her phone vibrating.

Jazzy: Hey, don't tell Groff you know this, but Anthony got into a bit of a fight, but he's fine. Just a black eye and a sprained ankle, he's okay, just wanted to give you a heads up.

Pippa was going to send back a "hallelujah, thank you" text, until her phone started to ring. "Hello?" She asked, answering the unknown number call.

"I know that you cheated on your midterms."

With that, the gravely voice ended the call.
