Hugo's brain short-circuited the second the door creaked open behind him.
'No, no, no! WHY couldn't she just stay inside?!'
His thoughts were full-on screaming now, like a whole stadium of angry fans yelling at a losing team.
'Was that too much to ask? Just stay in the room, Celine! For five minutes! FIVE!'
And of course, there she was.
Celine.
Effortlessly beautiful, hair slightly messy in that perfect 'I-just-rolled-out-of-bed-and-look-gorgeous" way.
Her lips were still swollen from their earlier kissing marathon, and that smug little smirk on her face?
Yeah, that was the cherry on top of this disaster sundae.
Hugo didn't even have time to recover before the real bomb dropped.
Loli's eyes widened.
Like, cartoonishly wide. Her pupils dilated, her mouth opened just a little, and—oh no—her eyes were starting to shimmer.
Tears were definitely on the way!
