“Gabbe, please – I need you to come. I want to talk to her, I want to see her. I just want you to intervene when you think it gets to much.” Daniel pleas, his gray eyes filled with distress. Daniel had gone to Gabbe before Social night, in hopes that she would go to Cam's party to help Daniel try and get close to Luce, and that she would pull Luce or Daniel aside. Gabbe sighed and ran her fingers through her blonde hair, watching Daniel as her eyes fill with remorse.
“Alright, I'll be there. But, you know I can't promise I can stop it, Daniel.” Gabbe's voice was gentle, placing a hand on his shoulder and rubbing up and down. Her blue eyes were watching Daniel with a sympathetic look. “You have to be sure you truly want to do this, Daniel.” …show more content…
“I have to go now, I'll see you at the party.” Gabbe then walks around him and leaves Daniel to himself in the hallway. Daniel sighs, leaning against the wall behind him and closing his eyes.
“Hey, ready to get to Social? We're already late as Hell.” Roland said, making Daniel open him eyes to look at him. Though Daniel dreaded Social, and would have skipped – He wanted to watch Cam and Luce. Daniel nodded and slid his hands into the pockets of his jacket before walking with Roland down the stairs.

Daniel didn't bother to look up at the crowd behind him – In fact, he was scared to. Would Cam have Luce snuggled into his side as they watched the movie? Would they be holding hands and whispering to each other? Would they be kissing as if no one else was there. Daniel pursed his lips and tried to pay attention to the movie, but he couldn't.
Memories of Lucinda slithered into his mind, blocking out all the noise from the movie and the laughter from the impersonations being done among the students. Daniel's mind swept over to their memory of their Valentine's Day
