The Bounty

STORM

"So what were you about to tell me about Jess when you interrupted my sleep this morning?" Storm asked Lucy once they were done eating.

They were lounging on the affluent fluffy sofas in the sitting room. The TV was on, but it didn't grab Storm's attention, not when there was the anticipation of a gist in the atmosphere. She believed that she had waited longer than the usual, to hear the information.

Justin and Lucy exchanged weird glances that informed Storm that Lucy must have told their host the gist already. This left her in the dark. She hated being in the dark.

"You guys, out with it! Don't you think I have waited long enough?" She teased Lucy.

Lucy gave up a snort, but laughed the next few seconds at the tease.
