He has probably just gotten a little lost. It seems to be a big resort if the exterior is anything to go by." Lucas tried to sooth against better judgement. It was evident that Willow was worried about her friend’s lack of presence in the lobby.
Picturing himself going to the reef, maybe visiting the spa and all the other attractions relaxed him and made Lucas not worry and just believed that Noah would find him later at their bungalow but before dinner. And that he’d have a logical explanation for his lateness or at least a good story to share. Turning to Willow he replied."I'm from Oxford but I currently live in London with my uncle." Which was technically alone since his uncle spent most of days off at Hogwarts working.
Moving to the side to give his name to a free hotel employee Lucas waited while they searched for his reservation. Glancing sideways at Willow he couldn’t help but think again that she was very pretty.
Awww she was kind of hoping he'd still offer to stay with her. Because if he did she wouldn't turn him down that time! Trying to hide her disappointment, she smiled nodding "I'm sure he is. For all I know I missed him and Noah's already in his bungalow." Yep he probably was, he hadn't said when he was arriving, just said he'd meet her there! She was just going to go to her bungalow it'd be easier. Do some unpacking. And the worst that happened was she called Noah to find out where he was!
Her eyes widened as he said he was also in London at that time. Oxford was less than an hour from her too!!! She tried to contain the stunned look that they lived so close to one another. Especially considering she wasn't even sure why she was excited about that. For all she knew he had a girlfriend! What did it matter anyway? She was there to enjoy herself, take a break from work, and enjoy the sun! The added bonus would be watching the guys! But...actually meeting a guy and getting to know him? That hadn't been the plan! Her plan included spending some time with Noah but she knew neither of them were planning the entire vacation together!
Taking the key for her bungalow her gaze flickered back to Lucas, "It was nice meeting you." she said softly, not giving away anything or hinting at all. She figured that'd probably be one of the only times she'd see him, let alone speak with him!
