"Ted stop!" shouted Lily as she rushed into the Farhampton Inn. But she was too late! Ted had already given Robin… a picture? "What the damn hell?" asked Lily as she looked at the picture Ted had given Robin. She then pulled Ted aside and asked "What happened to the Locket?"
"I never found it. I realized that you were right, it wasn't just an innocent wedding gift. So, I knew what the right innocent gift was."
"Oh, Ted."
Before either of them could say anything else, an exasperated Tracy burst into the lobby, gasping for air. "God Lily you're fast."
"Tracy?" asked Ted, surprised. He thought he'd never see Tracy again. She looked up at him and smiled. "Ted!"
"What are you doing here?"
"Oh, I'm in the wedding band. I met Lily on the train and she convinced me to stay here."
Ted looked back at Lily, silently thanking her. He knew that this weekend was going to be infinitely better now that Tracy was here.
"That's great! I… I never thought I'd see you again." Ted was helping her regain her balance. She was still a little exhausted. She wiped a strand of hair away from her face and tucked it behind her ear. "Yeah, I never thought I was going to see you again, either." They both smiled at each other instead of saying anything else. Eventually Ted said that he should check in, and the two of them met Lily at the front counter.
"And will the two of you be sharing a room together?" Kurtis asked, directed towards Ted and Tracy. Both of them stood there awkwardly, not speaking, before Lily said "No, she's staying with me."
"Oh, so you're staying alone?" Kurtis asked Ted. He just nodded awkwardly, and Tracy couldn't help but admire him. Part of her wanted to stay with him, but she knew that would be weird since they hardly knew each other. But then again, she and Lily hardly knew each other either. If she had anything to say it was already too late. They'd gotten their keys to their rooms and were about to head their separate ways.
"Hey, Tracy," said Ted before she could walk away. "Do you wanna maybe get together in a little bit?"
She smiled and said "Yeah! Yeah, I'd love that."
"Cool. I'll see you later."
"Bye." Tracy looked back at him one last time and smiled before following Lily to their room.
