I shuffled towards the door of 35 Portland Row. The sign that said:
Lockwood and Co.
After dark, ring the bell and wait beyond the iron line.was slightly wonky. No surprise I guess. I breathed out slightly, hoping to get all my anger out on one moment.
I guess I seemed pretty shaken because Jess placed a rather cold hand on my shoulder.
"Don't worry Lucy," she said, smiling slightly. "We'll talk him round."
The bell seemed to go on forever, and the wait for the door to open even longer. I shifted my weight dozens of times, but I couldn't get the feeling out of my mind.
Something had definitely happened in that tunnel. Something that had to be important.
And I had a feeling it was about Lockwood.A bleary eyed George opened the door. In a very Georgy way, no emotion crossed his face, he just took off his glasses. Rubbed them on his sweater, and put them back on.
"You'd better come inside." He said, motioning to me. "But you," he said, glaring at Jess. "Can go away."
I started retorting when Jess cleared her throat.
"It's ok. Anthony never gave me warm welcomes." Despite George's warning, Jess strolled into the house.
"Hey! You can't come in!" He shouted. Jess' hair whipped about her face in a ghostly wind that blew George back into the wall. Her face was a picture of remorse.
"Why not?" She scoffed. "It's more my house than yours."
She breathed deeply, getting control of her anger, and turned away.
"I'll have the green doughnut please."Authors note~
I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while. So much going on!!! Guys I need your opinion.
Should Lockwood tell Lucy about the kiss?
Or should Lucy have a flashback that makes her remember? But then it's in a really bad time while they're fighting ghosts or something...
Plz help!
Takeover has left the building.
