LUCIEN
Nothing prepared me for the rush of emotions I felt when I saw Lyra at the passageway. She had left her room and came… my heart did that stupid thing where it leaped for someone but I couldn't, I couldn't call out to her, not without figuring what this was about so I did the only reasonable thing. I ran. Quietly hoping that she wouldn't notice me but it was too bad that she did.
She muttered my name as if she didn't believe she would find me so easily and then my name tore from her mouth, not caring the fact that anyone might hear.
My steps quickened when I realized that she had actually seen me but she followed me. Of course she did, she was Lyra.
When I saw her running after me, i broke into a quick run, turning a corner and entering my room, locking the door against me.
