'She's not here,' Emma muttered under her breath as she found another room empty. For the past few hours she had been looking everywhere she thought Lily would've been holed up at, yet to no avail; Lily had been nowhere to be found.
After she had searched everywhere in the palace Lily would've considered going to to calm down after her outburst, Emma started panicking. Millions of thoughts raced in her mind as she had one question in mind.
Where was her best friend? Where was Lily? Where was she?
Heartbeat quickening, she ran her way to James' quarters, not caring whether it wasn't graceful or a suitable way for a royal to behave or not when all she had were unanswered questions.
Fighting back tears, she called, "James, Connor!"
The two princes looked up to see a teary Emma at the threshold.
"What happened, Em?" James asked worriedly.
Choking back tears and panting, Emma answered, "Lily... I... I... couldn't... find her."
