Had She Decided To Like Him

****

Lucy came out of the bathroom, her eyes wandering around the room. With each minute that passed, her anxiety kept increasing.

Would she really not have a chance this time? Was she going to be bound to Cedric for real? He would in no doubt return tomorrow. Was this the end?

Her feet took her to the window and she stared up at the stars shinning above. What was happening out there? And— how was Greg?

Would he notice her absence? There was no doubt he would. But would he think about her and whatever she was going through at the moment?

Lucy breathed out a heavy sigh and walked away from the window. She had even foolishly thought, a while ago– no. She had hoped. She had hoped he would barge into the door and come looking for her.

But that was only her wishful thinking. Greg would want nothing to do with her anymore. He was probably out there, having fun and doing whatever he used to do to keep his mood high.
