Daisy and I waited and watched as Em, Spencer and Joe all looked between each other, clearly wondering whether to disclose what their family issues were. I glanced at Daisy, hoping we weren't about to be kicked out of their lives because of our curiosity.
"I don't know if we should-"
"Nina's gay." Spencer frowned at Em, annoyed that he'd been interrupted, but she was only looking at Daisy and I. "Our parents disowned her after she came out."
Joe pursed his lips. 
"That's why she wants to stay and fight." He said with a sigh. "She doesn't want to go home because she knows they won't take her back."
"I think she feels like she has to prove herself to them." Em shrugged as she shook her head, clearly unhappy with the whole situation.
"Obviously, we don't care. We love Nina, no matter what." Spencer said so intensely, as if daring us to reject Nina too. 
"Obviously. We even told her we wouldn't go home to them," Em continued, "that we could get our own place and forget about Mum and Dad, but she won't."
