Eventful Night

"She did?" I asked, unable to hide the surprise in my tone.

"Yeah," Lucas confirmed. "I thought you two knew each other. "I'm just surprised she did not talk to you."

"Don't you think her voice sounded familiar?"

He frowned. "Now that you mentioned it, I do agree her voice sounded familiar. It's just that I can't remember where I heard it before."

"Same here." I murmured under my breath, agreeing with him.

"Look Bella, I don't know what's keeping you uncomfortable during the meal but I could lend you an ear." He gently spoke.

I shook my head and met his gaze with pleading eyes. "Please… I don't want to talk about it for now… I just want to get home."

Lucas looked at me, ready to argue. But then as though he changed his mind at the last minute, he sighed. "Alright, I'll drive us home." He whispered and laid a soft kiss on my temples.

Sighing, I leaned my head on the leather seat. I couldn't wait to get home and rest.
