Hey guys. Lily here. Sorry it's taken AGES, had no inspiration or time (I'm actually supposed to be writing an essay for Thursday but didn't think it was wise to ignore my first bit of inspiration in a while lol)
Greg, Nick, Emma and Sarah sat outside Catherine's room, listening to the sporadic muffled sobs from the overwrought woman inside, having witnessed Gil's abrupt departure that preceded a fleeting visit from Lindsey.
"What the hell did he say to her?" Nick sighed as Greg and Emma shrugged.
"He told her he loved her, but he doesn't think she loves him, which is the biggest load of bollocks I've ever heard!" Sarah's three companions stared at her.
"How the hell?" Greg exclaimed.
"I have exceptional hearing," Sarah replied with a shrug. Emma giggled and Nick smiled, placing a soft kiss to the top of her head. Greg shook his head before noticing movement at the end of the hall.
"The wanderer returns." He gestured to Gil, who was walking back along the corridor, a smiling Lindsey by his side.
"Griss man. You really need to get back in there. She's been crying ever since you left," Nick stood and approached his former boss, allowing Lindsey to slip into his seat.
"I know. But I'm hopefully going to fix that," he replied with a smile. He moved past Nick, entering Catherine's room and letting the door shut behind him.
Emma and Sarah turned to each other, huge smiles on their faces.
"He's totally gonna propose!" They exclaimed in unison, causing Nick and Greg to stare at them, mouths hanging open. Lindsey grinned.
"Sarah! Get that uber ear of yours glued to that door! We wanna hear everything!" Emma reached past Lindsey and shoved her best friend out of her seat and towards the door.
"Ouch Tink! No need to get rough!"
"Quit complaining, you know you like it rough," Emma replied with a wink, causing everyone to laugh.
"Shut up! He's speaking…"
I know it's short, but once the essay's out of the way I'll write the next bit! Don't forget to hit that little green button :D
