For 30 January - Day Three
colour: purple brooch
beautiful word: mellifluous
pairing: LucyLorcan.
The whole house was buzzing with people that night. It was Lucy's 15th birthday after all, and the entire family was usually present on a family member's birthday.
Streamers and decorations were flying everywhere; gifts wrapped in colorful papers were in everyone's hands, and Lucy herself was in the midst of it all, her sky blue eyes dancing with delight and her seemingly mellifluous voice floating over to him despite the loud music in the background.
He waited for her to be alone, and when he had caught her eye, before she knew it, he was dragging her away from the party into a secluded corner.
"What is it, Lorcan?" she asked annoyed. She was angry with him, of course. He hadn't given her a present. Yet.
Lorcan looked at his beautiful best friend, and smiled, while taking out the box from his jacket pocket.
Her eyes lighted up again, as she spotted the box. She grabbed it from him without asking any questions and opened it. There, resting on a velvety clothe, was a small brooch. It was a delicate and beautiful little thing, with tiny purple stones all over it.
She stared at it for a few seconds. He tried to see her expression but it was hidden by her blonde hair falling around her face. "Do you like it, Lucy?" he asked anxiously.
She threw her arms around him abruptly, taking him by surprise and enveloped him in a big hug. "It's beautiful," she said excitedly, "I love you, Lorc."
""Happy Birthday, Lucy. I love you too, "he murmured against her hair, wishing that she would say those three words the way he meant them.
