#LucasAndBellaDating #BellaLucasDinnerDate
My heart sank. Ten minutes ago, Bella posted a photo with the caption:
Had a great dinner with someone special.
In the corner of the photo was a man's hand. I recognized it instantly. The bracelet on his wrist was one I braided for him.
I tried to delude myself, thinking it was a coincidence. But internet sleuths found Lucas's reflection in a spoon.
My hope died. The CP (Couple Pairing) fans went wild.
OMG, my ship has sailed! It's been three years! This is an announcement! So the mystery woman last night was Bella? Some of you are delusional. Bella just landed today. Did she mail her lips over last night? Maybe she's just chasing clout? (Just my opinion, don't come for me.) Maybe Lucas is trying to win her back? Hence the dinner date.
I gripped my phone tightly, debating whether to text him. Then I heard the front door open.
I turned off my phone and pretended to sleep.
