Following The Right Order

Inside Tom's bedroom, he lay on the bed with Lucy snuggled close to him. He had yet to say more than a handful of words to her since the moment he walked into the bedroom and joined her on the bed.

He had thought she would be fast asleep by the time he returned, but she had only just settled into bed when he walked into the room.

He was too busy thinking of the easiest way to tell Lucy about Kimberly without getting her worried.

"Are you going to tell me what is on your mind?" Lucy asked when she finally got tired of waiting for him to willingly say what he was thinking about, and Tom sighed as he sat up.

"You've blocked Kimberly from reaching you, right?" he asked, and she raised a brow.

"Yeah. I thought we were done with that already. Why are you bringing it up again?" she asked in confusion as she also sat up.

"We found out she was behind the scandal, not her parents," Tom said as he watched Lucy.
