CHAPTER 61

  Lucas' P.O.V.

  I had to tell him that we would wait to celebrate Rose's good news until the weekend. With everything that's going on now, we could use a little down time. I know Rose hadn't texted Hailey about yet either, so this is fine. I'll celebrate with Rose, just us two tonight.

  I watched Lisa leave with Rachel and Leo down the hall. I know Rachel can bring Lisa out her darkness better than I can. Lisa and I understand each other's pain too well to help cheer each other up. We're always there for one another, supporting and encouraging each other, but we suck at getting the other one to be happy. It's like we just end up wallowing in our sadness together instead.

  "Is she going to be okay?" Rose asked me, appearing beside me at the door. She peeked her head out, waving back at Lisa, who waved at her from the elevator.

  "I hope so."
