Get Back To You 16 The Pain Of The Past, She Made Me Remember Her

"Are you sick?" Lucy got worried.

"Nah... it's nothing."

"Do you want to leave?" Lucy suggested.

"Yeah, but after a few minutes. The sun's already set, so let's wait until it's dark." Lillian replied to her.

Seeing her state, Lucy got worried. Taking deep breaths and looking unsteady. Later, they returned to their car. The two-hour ride back to Vegas was a silent trip. Lucy kept glancing at Lillian, she got worried if something was wrong. On the other side, Lillian took the window seat and kept staring at the dark night sky. The pain seems to be awakened by this girl, Lucy. However, Lucy never reminded of her past so far, but why now?

All of these puzzled Lillian and it just ruined the mood. But, the entire day was filled with lots of trips and traveling. This made both of them looked worn out. Lillian checked in with the driver and informed him about their next destination.

They both rested on their return journey. It was actually a good idea to visit the spa.

"s.h.i.+t." Lillian was mad at herself.

She felt guilty for ruining their perfect date. However, she must plan to make up for it.

"Wow, man. I felt really weak up there." Lillian tried to get away with an excuse.

"Is it? It looked more like you remember something old and sad " Lucy replied sarcastically.

"Of course, I am an old person, Lucy. I have experienced life more than you. But I apologize for making you uncomfortable. I'm surprised at myself for feeling such emotions. I was sure that I locked them away long back. Who knew that they came back rus.h.i.+ng into my memories of past." Lillian's thoughts flowed because she can't avoid or ignore it forever. But this was depressing. she promised to give Lucy the best date but she herself wrecked it now.

"That's true. You are old but that doesn't mean that I shouldn't care about you, isn't it? Anyways, we are here to relax. Make sure you clear your mind and body." Lucy adviced.

Soon they arrived at the Golden Nugget spa & salon. They both got down, thanked for the ride and went ahead.

The first session was ma.s.sage therapy. Lucy and Lillian went to change their clothes to receive ma.s.sage.

"Now, forget all about your depressing past. I'm here with you and that's all we need to do. Plus, you didn't catch a sleep last night. Make sure to let me know if you feel sick, got it?" Lucy ordered.

"Alright. Sure. Thanks, Babe." Lillian a.s.sured her girlfriend.

Both of them went to their rooms to get ma.s.sages. Lillian took her phone out and switch it back to normal mode. In case, if Lucy called, she didn't want to miss it and ruin the mood again. After switching it back, she placed her phone on the table and went to lie down.

"May I start, Mam?" the ma.s.seuse requested her.

"Yes, sure go ahead. Oh, and by the way, I pulled an all-nighter so please be careful with my body. You can't be breaking any of my bones."

"Sure. I'll help you relax by starting with your head ma.s.sage mam." the ma.s.seuse informed and started her work.

After 45 minutes of getting ma.s.saged, the ladies reunited for a bath. Then, the steam room and finally refres.h.i.+ng drinks. The spa therapy worked out really great. Lillian went back to her normal mode, which meant fooling around and being unpredictable. Lucy looked relaxed and energized. They went to get changed and headed out for the finale of their date, the dinner.

Paris Las Vegas, the Eiffel tower at Vegas which is inspired from the original Eiffel Tower at Paris. Lillian booked a table for two and ordered a good old wine for the dinner. The dinner was romantic and relaxed. Both enjoyed themselves in a nice luxurious meal.

"It is good to see you normal again" Lucy stated.

"I know and I apologize again for causing the disturbance."

"Nah, it's alright. I just thought you might have remembered your first love or something. You looked so in pain and depressed." Lucy hit the nail. She knew the mood can plummet but she couldn't forget the face Lillian had back then. 'I had to ask her' Lucy compromised herself.

Lillian's expression changed the moment she heard it from Lucy. It was hard to control herself from getting emotional.

"Only fools will think such a way. I just got reminded of my career when I started out. All the struggles and chaos. The first success..." Lillian diverted the conversation.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I can't help but feel jealous." Lucy expressed herself truly. she continued,

"Lillian, people can tell that you're a player. But when I met you, I could see that it was actually all those people whom you've dated, it's their fault. Plus, you're never really "getting the attention to yourself" type. I liked your personality and I really enjoyed spending time with you. However,"

Lucy paused before continuing.

"I don't actually know you. I know the current Lillian but the old Lillian? How much do I know her? Before all the fame and success, what were you doing? I want to know all about you."

she looked at Lillian for a response.

But there was none.

"Let's enjoy this moment, shall we? How about we order the dessert now?" Lillian dodged the conversation again.

Lucy agreed. It is pointless to speak one-sidedly.
