Terrified. 

That was the best way to describe how Gwen was feeling at the moment. The whole entire day she had been on edge. She kept thinking of the worst possible case scenarios about what could happen tonight. Despite Cora's forgiving nature, Gwen knew that this was something that Cora would not forgive her for in an instance. 

Does Gwen regret all the lies she told Cora the past three months? Yes. Does Gwen wish she could start over and be truthful? Yes. Is Gwen going on the date tonight? Possibly.

The closer it got to the time she needed to leave, Gwen kept switching back and forth on if she should even show up in the first place. She knew she should go, but at the same exact time she was coward. Even though Gwendolyn has been in the industry for a while now and confrontations are something she deals with on occasion, she still hates them. Hell, most of the time she wasn't even the one to deal with the confrontations in her job, it was Phoenix. Gwen would much rather stay in the comfort of her own bubble and not have to deal with her problems. 

About an hour passed, and Gwen pushed her cowardliness aside and got into her car. She figured it was best to leave now before she changed her mind once more. She thought about bringing a gift to soften the blow, but decided that Cora would not find it endearing at all and would possibly reject it altogether. Throughout the whole drive, her mind was in a constant state of anxiousness. She tried her best to shake it off before she arrived at the Griffith Observatory but it was no use, the nerves were still there. 

Gwen was a bit early by the time she arrived, she had about forty minutes to kill before she was to meet up with Cora. She killed the first twenty minutes by overthinking once more but she stopped and grabbed her phone and sent a text to Nix, needing some words of encouragement.

Gwen let out a shaky breath as she stepped out of her car, locking it. She brushed a hand through her hair and made her way towards the building. 

"This is it."
