Runway

Most eyes in the room were on the beautiful gown that was being displayed before them; but for Lucinda, her eyes were on the woman that was wearing the gown.

"Such stunning yellow," a man whispered beside her, scribbling some notes onto his notepad.

"Oh, yes," Lucinda agreed, taking in the woman's long, golden hair. It flowed all the way down to her back. Lucinda simply wanted to be wrapped up in it.

"And that beautiful blue!" A woman sighed, also scribbling notes.

Yes, her blue eyes were absolutely beautiful.

The woman did a twirl, and Lucinda's heart flipped inside her chest.

"Stunning! Absolutely stunning!"

Lucinda swallowed as the young woman left the runway, but not without flashing a smile at the critics – including the awe-struck girl below.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Fleur Delacour wearing the stunning ball gown, designed and made by her very own sister, Gabrielle Delacour."

A round of applause distracted Lucinda from her thoughts, and she quickly scribbled some words onto her notepad.

"Well, what a wonderful season this will be!" Derek, the one who had commented on the yellow earlier, said.

Lucinda nodded. "Yes, yes." She stood.

"Where are you going?"

"I must… bathroom!" She dropped her notepad on her chair and hurried backstage. She needed to find that Fleur Delacour. She needed to see her again… to make sure she was real.

"Sorry, no entry until models are changed." A fat hand stopped her from going any further than the side of the stage.

"Oh, but I know somebody –"

She was interrupted by a chuckle. "And that is what the fifteen men who tried to get in before you said," the security guard told her. He shook his head. "No entry until after they are changed. Critic or not."

Lucinda sighed, turning around. It would be too late then.

She sighed again.

It was always too late.

Fleur Delacour and her sister were always gone by the time she managed to get backstage. It was almost as if they disappeared into thin air.

"One day," Lucinda muttered as she returned to her chair. "One day, I'll find you, Fleur." And when that day came she wasn't letting the most beautiful woman out of her sights again.
