Secretly Mine

An hour had already gone by since the start of the event, and Leslie still hadn’t shown up.

Something feels off. She should be here by now.

I rolled off the bed and walked over to check myself in the mirror before stepping out of my room. My stomach began turning from the amount of unease I was feeling.

Surely she isn’t still with him?

My mind pictured her smiling face as she looked at Lucas. It made me feel so uncomfortable. Thoughts of how I would pull her away from him flooded my mind as I entered the elevator.

Maybe she just couldn’t sneak away. Don’t jump to conclusions, Christian..

I took a deep breath just as the elevator doors to the lobby opened. In front of me were three hotel staff, all with push carts that were filled with food.

"Excuse us, sir," the closest staff said, bowing his head slightly.

I glanced at all of the food with surprise, "Is there a party happening somewhere?" I asked curiously. There were at least a dozen dishes, and while all of them were covered, I could smell their appetizing aroma.

"Ah, no, sir. This is just all room service," the staff member replied.

Someone ordered that much food?!
