lucinda; that 70s show
Tumblr media
Hey guys! So this is the first chapter to my that 70s show fic posted literally ten minutes ago on Wattpad lols. I wanted to post the first chapter here as well to see if anyone was interested, it is on Wattpad @ weloveafan please check it out!!
[ Eric Forman's Basement, Point Place, Wisconsin ]
"Eric, it's time." Steven Hyde glared at his friend who sank further into his chair.
"Why don't you do it?" Eric asked.
"It's your house."
"Your house." Michael Kelso repeated from his spot next to Hyde.
"C'mon, don't be such a loser Forman." Lucie Burkhart rolled her eyes at the overly nervous boy. She hopped up to sit on the dryer, keeping her harsh gaze on Eric, making him shrink back further.
Hyde waved her off, and pointed upstairs. "Listen to them up there. The party has reached critical mass. In ten minutes, there will be no more beer opportunities."
Eric's parents were throwing a party and his friends (plus Lucie) were trying to get him to sneak beers from his dad's fridge while all their parents were distracted.
"If my dad catches me copping beers, he'll kill me!" His eyes widened in fear.
"What a shame." Lucie shot him a fake smile.
She was ignored once again. Hyde slapped Eric's knee and looked deep into his friend's eyes. "I'm willing to take that risk."
Kelso tried to reassure Eric. "Don't worry about it. Just remain calm, keep moving."
Donna Pinciotti looked at them all urgently, cutting Kelso off. "And above all, don't get sucked into my dad's hair."
Eric furrowed his eyebrows. "What's wrong with your dad's hair?"
Donna and Lucie shuddered, the brunette having unfortunately seen Bob Pinciotti's awful perm when she arrived to the Forman house earlier. "Just don't look at it." Donna warned, leaning back in her own chair.
Hyde stood in front of Eric, holding his face in his hands. "And Eric, cold. Definitely cold." The two shared a small nod of understanding, and with a new burst of confidence Eric rushed upstairs to get them beer.
"Do you think he's really gonna do it?" Donna turned around to ask Lucie.
The brunette scoffed, flipping through a random magazine that was next to her. "Not a chance." She rolled up the magazine and threw it at Hyde, internally cheering when it hit him on the shoulder. "Hey Hyde, ten bucks Red will kill him before he even steps one foot in the kitchen."
He smirked, pushing his tinted glasses back up his nose. "You're on, Luce." He picked up the fallen magazine, smirking as he saw it was an old Playboy. He sat back down on the couch next to Kelso, flipping through it. "Check it out." He held the magazine so the other boy could see.
Donna stepped behind the couch, looking over their shoulders. "Lucie and I see that every day."
"And you never will." Lucie smirked at the flustered boys, giving Donna a high five.
To the brunette girl's surprise, Eric returned to the basement unscathed and unfortunately very much alive, and with five beers in hand.
"He's alive!" Kelso sprung off the couch and snatched his beer from Eric.
Eric cheered and passed the rest of the beers out, childishly sticking his tongue out when he got to Lucie. "Good news. My dad is thinking of giving me the Vista Cruiser."
"You're getting a car?" Kelso asked in disbelief.
Donna grinned. "Have I ever told you how incredibly attractive you are, Eric?"
"No." He raised an eyebrow, playing along with Donna.
Kelso turned to Donna confused. "You told me he was cute."
"No I didn't." Donna turned away from Kelso, embarrassed. Lucie snickered at her friend.
"I remember 'cause you said not to say anything in front of Eric." Kelso kept going.
Lucie sighed, cracking open her beer can. "Oh Kelso, never change."
Hyde raised his beer in a toast. "Let's focus on what's important here people. Forman stole something. To Forman."
They all raised their beers in response.
"To Forman!"
Once again, Lucie found herself in Eric Forman's basement with the others. This time, with the addition of her younger cousin Jackie Burkhart who was dating Kelso. Jackie was also the one who introduced her to the rest of the gang.
Three months ago, Lucie left her parents in New York City and ended up at her uncle's house in Point Place, Wisconsin. Lucie and her parents moved to New York when she was eight, and she hasn't been back to her home town since. In fact it was the last place she wanted to go, but after calling her cousin, Jackie managed to convince Lucie that it was time to go back home.
Despite the hatred Lucie held for the small town, she was ecstatic to see her cousin again since the two girls managed to remain close. The first day that Lucie came back, Jackie practically dragged her to Eric's basement to meet her boyfriend and his friends. At first, Lucie thought they were all incredibly annoying, but the more time she spent with them the closer they became. Unfortunately, Lucie could tell that they all did not like her cousin and it put her in an extremely awkward position.
Today, they were watching television with the sound turned down and making up their own dialogue. Eric, Donna, Kelso, and Lucie all thought it was entertaining, but Jackie did not.
"Marcia, a football in the face. That's gotta hurt." Eric laughed.
"Ouch, my nose!" Donna said in a high pitched voice.
"That's gonna be huge in the morning."
"Huger than my boobs?"
"Bigger than the left one!" Eric said, making them all burst into laughter.
Jackie sat under Kelso's arm with her arms crossed over her chest. "Why are we watching this without the sound? I am totally confused."
"Just use the earphone." Lucie pointed to the earphone resting on the small coffee table. Eric picked it up and handed it to Jackie who begrudgingly put it in her ear.
"So, what's the deal with the Vista Cruiser?" Kelso asked Eric.
"The deal is, there is no deal yet." He replied, disappointed. Eric was going to keep talking but was interrupted by Jackie shushing them.
Kelso looked at his girlfriend, waiting for her to turn her attention back to the television before whispering to the others. "How are we gonna get to the concert?"
"Shut up!" Eric and Donna snapped, each slapping Kelso on the arm making the boy cry out in pain.
Lucie's brow furrowed, she didn't know about any concert.
"What concert?" Jackie glared at her boyfriend.
Kelso smiled nervously. "Uh... Todd Rundgren."
"When?"
"This weekend."
She raised her eyebrows. "Oh, who's going?"
"Eric, and Donna, and me, and Hyde, and the foreign kid Fez. Pretty much everybody." He stuttered, and quickly added, "And you!" Jackie looked at him expectantly. "And Lucie!"
"Gee, thanks for the invitation Kelso." Lucie smiled sarcastically, crossing her arms over her chest. She didn't want to admit that she was a little hurt by their lack of consideration. Eric and Donna groaned, glaring at Kelso for inviting the Burkhart girls. Donna and Lucie were friends, but the gang didn't want to invite her because then they knew she wouldn't go without Jackie.
"Good, thank you for telling us, Michael." Jackie smiled and settled back into his side.
"I'm getting a soda." Eric practically jumped off the couch to avoid Lucie's piercing gaze, Donna following right after.
"Not so fast, traitors." Lucie glared, chasing after Eric up the stairs. Kelso tried to follow them but Donna shoved him back down into his seat, before following her friends upstairs.
Eric practically hid behind Donna as the three teens stood in his kitchen. She may be small, but Lucinda Burkhart was terrifying.
"Sorry we didn't invite you, Luce." Donna said genuinely. "But you can totally come!"
She smiled at her friend. "Thanks Donna. I'd love to." She shot one last glare at Eric before turning to go back to the basement. "Let's get back down there before they start making out."
The three ran back down the stairs, returning to their previous spots. Kelso practically threw Jackie off of him, confirming Lucie's suspicions that they were making out.
" So Jackie, I guess you're going to the concert with us." Eric said, awkwardly.
"I can't wait." She clapped her hands. Jackie turned back around to Kelso. "Michael, you wanna go back to my house and listen to Todd Grunion records?"
Lucie giggled at her cousin's mispronunciation.
"Yeah, sure." Kelso sprang up the couch, grabbing Jackie's hand and dragging her up the stairs.
Lucie sarcastically waved as they disappeared from sight, laughing with Eric and Donna.
"You kids have fun. Bye." Eric called, but they were already gone.
"Bye, bye, now." Donna said. "They're so darn cute. Minute you turn your back, they go at it like dogs."
"They're frisky." Lucie said, making Donna laugh.
The red head gathered her things and said goodbye to her friends, leaving Lucie and Eric alone in the basement. The two awkwardly sat on the couch together, scooting away from each other as they felt they were too close. Lucie turned her head to look at Eric, and the boy scrambled away from her and ran back up the stairs.
Lucie smiled and turned the television back on. "Too easy."
Lucie giggled at Hyde's annoyed glare as she kept blowing straw wrappers at him. The gang were hanging out at The Hub with a foreign exchange student named Fez. If she was being honest, he kind of creeped Lucie out, but he was harmless.
"Would you quit it!" Hyde snapped, throwing one of the wrappers back at Lucie. She stuck her tongue out at him and went back to eating her french fries. Hyde shot her one last glare before returning to the pinball machine.
Fez stood next to Hyde and leaned towards him. "I may not say this right because I am new to English, but she has tremendous breasts, yes?" He pointed at Lucie.
Hyde followed his movement, and smirked when he saw the brunette girl. He laughed as he saw Lucie's disgusted face, the girl obviously having heard Fez.
"Michael, who is this guy?" Jackie asked, also disgusted.
"Oh, that's Fez. He's a foreign exchange student." Kelso said, eating his hot dog.
"Who did we exchange for him?" Lucie wrinkled her nose, making Jackie laugh.
"Lucie, Donna, I need to go to the ladies room." Jackie stood up from her chair, waiting expectantly.
Donna pretended not to hear Jackie, but Lucie pulled her up from the chair, dragging the red head along behind them.
Fez took Jackie's place, standing in front of Kelso and Eric who were still seated. "I too must go to the bathroom. Eric?" He smiled as he waited for the boy to get up.
Eric looked at him, unimpressed. "No, it doesn't work that way with guys."
Hyde took Lucie's seat as he and Eric faced Kelso. "Kelso, how much longer are we gonna have to deal with the whole Jackie experience?"
Kelso leaned back in the chair. "Don't worry, I'm breaking up with Jackie. Lucie's way hotter." He nodded smirking at his friends.
"Never gonna happen." Hyde said immediately.
Kelso nodded, confidently. "It's over. She's cutting into my free time."
Lucie and Jackie were getting ready for the Todd Rundgren concert in her room. She was throwing clothes from her closet onto her bed, almost hitting Jackie in the face with a hanger. Like usual, Jackie got ready way too early and Lucie left it to the last minute.
"Careful!" Her cousin snapped, setting the hanger with the other clothes laid out on Lucie's pink bedspread.
"Sorry, Jackie!" Lucie's muffled voice responded. "Help me! I don't know what to wear." She stepped back into her room, looking at Jackie flip through her clothes.
"One step ahead of you." Jackie said, focused. She pulled out Lucie's favorite pair of flared jeans along with a black satin halter top. She shoved the outfit into her cousin's arms and pushed her into the bathroom to change.
Lucie smirked as she looked at her body in the mirror, feeling confident. The jeans hugged her hips in the perfect way, with the flares elongating her legs. The top accentuated her waist and left a little bit of her midriff exposed. She took her dark wavy hair out of the braid it was previously in and fluffed it up to give it some volume. She smiled to herself as she felt pretty for the first time in a while.
Jackie squealed as Lucie did a little turn. "You are brilliant Jackie."
"I know." She smiled. "You look great."
"Thanks." Lucie gave her cousin a hug. "Let's go, we're gonna be late."
The cousins met up with the rest of the gang in Eric's driveway, where they found the rest of the gang waiting for Eric to finish tuning up the car so they could go. As Eric finished tightening the tire, Kelso went to sit in the passenger seat.
"Kelso, that's sweet." Donna said, thinking he was holding the door open for her.
"Actually, I'm riding shotgun." Kelso said, confused trying to move past Donna.
"No, you're not." Donna pushed him out of the way.
"I'm not riding in the back." He scoffed, pointing at the back seat.
Donna crossed her arms. "Why don't we let Eric decide?" They both turned to look at Eric impatiently.
"Kelso..." he started, "get in the back."
Kelso groaned but moved into the backseat, letting Donna sit in the front. Jackie sat on Kelso's lap, to allow Fez and Hyde room in the back. Lucie stood awkwardly outside of the car still, unsure of where to go.
"Come on, Luce, get in!" Donna stuck her head out of the widow.
Hyde smirked as he raised his arms, inviting her to sit on his lap. Lucie glared at him, but got in the car anyway. She tried to sit as far away from Hyde as possible, but sitting on the very edge of his knee was not the most comfortable.
"Stop enjoying this." Lucie growled.
Hyde chuckled and wrapped his arms around her waist, keeping her secure. She could feel the rumbling of his chest. She huffed, but did not move away.
Red Forman came out of the house and leaned down to the driver's side window to talk to Eric. "Taking her for a spin?"
"Yes, sir." Eric clenched the steering wheel tightly, nervous about lying to his father about the concert.
Red smiled. "Well, have a good time. One more thing. Very important. About the car... she's old, so no trips out of town. Ever." He stood up and hit the roof of the car. "Well, have fun."
Eric's face paled at his father's warning. "I guess that's that. We're not going."
The gang all groaned in protest but Donna shushed them. "Eric, do you wanna go?" She looked at him.
"He said no trips out of town." Eric looked at Donna panicked.
"It's your car, Forman. Do you wanna go?" Lucie snapped, using the fact that he was scared of her to their advantage.
"But he's God." Eric whispered, his eyes wide with fear.
"I think God would want us to go to Milwaukee!" Kelso said.
"Eric, you are a seventeen year old man, I'm gonna go with whatever you say." Donna said seriously. The gang all waited a moment as Eric decided, but Lucie was fairly confident they were still going to the concert.
"It is my decision. And my decision is... we're going to a concert!"
"Atta boy, Forman!" Hyde cheered, slightly shaking Lucie making her laugh and hold onto Hyde for support.
It seemed like God did not want them to go to Milwaukee after all since Eric was forced to pull into a random gas station off the highway to get the Vista Cruiser looked at.
"I'm telling you, we're out of gas." Kelso insisted, leaning against the car with the other boys.
"We're not out of gas." Eric said, annoyed.
The mechanic finished looking under the hood of the car and stepped in front of them, wiping his hands on an old rag. "It's the battery. It's six years old and shot to hell."
Jackie, Donna, and Lucie got out of the car and stood next to the boys.
"I know, I'll call my dad." Jackie said, looking for change in her purse for the payphone.
They all shook their heads and spoke up at the same time, making Jackie confused. Eric pat Kelso's shoulder. "Kelso, tell her."
"He can't take the car out of town." Kelso said, matter of factly.
Jackie raised an eyebrow. "I'm not calling his dad."
Hyde groaned and pushed himself off of the car. "Jackie, parents talk to each other about how we screw up."
"Why would they talk about that?" She was still confused, and just wanted to get out of the gas station and to the concert.
"They can't help it." Eric said. "Look, say there's a party, see, and all of our parents are there. Together."
"Our parents would not do The Hustle." Lucie rolled her eyes as the boys finished their overdramatic prediction of what would happen if their parents were all in a room together.
"Guys we are in the middle of nowhere, and I have to go to the ladies room. Donna? Lucie?" Jackie grabbed their arms and pulled them over to the women's restroom.
"So where are you going?" The mechanic asked them.
Hyde took a sip of his soda. "Rundgren concert."
The mechanic nodded. "Cool. So what...do you want a battery, 'cause I can get you a battery."
"Are they cheap or possibly free?" Eric asked.
"Thirty two bucks, minimum." He shrugged.
Kelso leaned in close to the mechanic. "All right, I'll tell you what. We'll trade you our battery, plus five bucks for one of your batteries."
Hyde facepalmed.
The mechanic nodded, sarcastically. "That's a really sweet deal my friend, but how about this? How about one battery for two concert tickets?"
"We can't give up two tickets." Kelso shook his head.
The mechanic shrugged "Okay." He went back into the shop, leaving the teenagers outside.
"It's either that or none of us go." Eric said.
"So who's out?" Kelso asked.
Hyde hummed, sarcastically, like he was pretending to be thinking. "There's always Jackie."
Kelso smiled. "Of course Jackie. I mean, Jackie's gone, but who else?"
"I don't know, Jackie's cousin, or Jackie's date?" Eric suggested.
"Come on! You know I'm breaking up with her. You guys are chumping me out, make Lucie stay with her." Kelso complained, pleading with his friends.
Hyde shook his head. "No, Lucie stays."
"I've had to listen to Jackie for a good hour." Eric complained.
Fez spoke up. "A really long hour."
Kelso groaned. "God hates me."
Eric and Hyde left to give the tickets to the mechanic, leaving Kelso and Fez outside. Fez smiled at the boy, "How can you say God hates you? At least you have a woman's love. Be happy, whore."
The Todd Rundgren concert was the most fun Lucie has had in the past year, and she was really glad they ended up inviting her. They all held their lighters in the air, swaying back and forth to the music.
Fez looked behind them to see the mechanic and his date. "Guys, Randy's date is a man."
"Hey Randy!" Lucie called, waving to the man who waved back.
"I'm okay with it." Donna said. They all nodded, smiling.
"We are so cool to be okay with it!" Eric said, his arm around Donna's shoulders.
"I have to go to the bathroom. Kevin?" Randy said to his date, making Fez furrow his brow in confusion.
Eric pat his shoulder. "I'll explain later."
Hyde slid his arm around Lucie's waist, pulling her into his side. "You look great."
Her cheeks flushed, not used to a genuine compliment from Hyde. Usually they just messed around and wound each other up. He was rarely nice to Lucie because of his distaste for Jackie. "Thanks Hyde." She whispered, looking up at him. He nodded and returned his attention to the concert, but kept his arm wrapped around her waist.
Kelso, Jackie, and Fez went back inside Eric's house after they got back from the show, leaving Hyde and Lucie in the back of the car. Eric and Donna got out so they could talk on her porch.
The silence was slightly awkward as they sat in the car, they both didn't really know why they stayed behind. "Did you like the show?" Lucie asked, turning to face him.
Hyde nodded. "Yep."
Lucie nodded along, praying for it to stop being awkward. Lucie and Hyde faced each other as the air in the car shifted. The tension became thicker as they unknowingly started moving closer together. Hyde's gaze shifted to her plump lips and he found himself wanting to know what they felt like. Lucie didn't know why she suddenly wanted to kiss him so badly, but with a sudden boost of confidence she wrapped her hand around the back of his head and connected their lips. Hyde immediately reciprocated and cupped her jaw with one hand, wrapping the other around her waist, arching Lucie into him. He groaned as she lightly pulled on his hair, and that's when they realized what they were doing. They sprang apart, Lucie groaning as she hit her head on the roof of the car. Hyde scrambled out of the car, nearly tripping over himself as he gave Lucie one last look and went into the house without another word.
"What the hell just happened?"

we'll meet again; captain america: the first avenger
Tumblr media
hey guys! this is the prologue for my captain america fic and the first book in my mcu series!! let me know if you want me to post the rest on here, but for now the first four chapters are posted on Wattpad, @ weloveafan :))) I hope you guys enjoy
❥ prologue
[ new york city , 1941 ]
“Marti, come on!”
Martina Garcia struggled to keep up with her younger sister, Aleyda, as they ran from the police. She felt her lungs start to constrict as her breathing became shallower. She had never been a good runner. Aleyda slowed down, eager to help her sister and get them both to safety.
“Stop right there!” the officers called after them. They were beginning to catch up.
Martina shoved the bag she had been carrying into Aleyda’s arms, pushing her further down the street. “Go without me.”
Aleyda tried to argue, but the men were getting closer, and their mother needed the food and medicine. She nodded sadly, and the young girl took off in a sprint once more, leaving her older sister to fend for herself.
Martina tried to run again, ducking into an alleyway to escape, but the two men were faster than her and cornered her against one of the brick walls. Martina’s eyes scanned over the resources she had available to her and decided a metal trash can lid was her best option.
When one of the officers tried to grab her arms she ducked under him quickly and grabbed the lid, bringing it back up against the back of his head. The first officer stumbled against the wall, trying to regain his composure. The other man charged at her but she used the lid like a shield and pushed him off of her, then kicked him in the chest, effectively knocking him to the ground. She might not have been a good runner, but Martina certainly knew how to fight.
Martina and her sister had been born and raised in Cuba, but her father was killed for crimes and protests against President Geraldo Machado in 1933, when she was twelve and her sister was only eight. Her mother decided there was nothing left for them in Cuba and moved them to the United States.
They tried to rebuild their lives in the American south, but were faced with extreme prejudice and risk of deportation. It was extremely disappointing to Martina. Wasn’t America supposed to be the land of the free? It was supposed to be the place where dreams could come true and all the hardship they had faced would be worth it as they started their new and fulfilling lives. Unfortunately, the grass isn’t always greener, and the women were not safe, so her mother moved them to New York City. She decided that it was smarter to stay in a big city where they could blend in and hopefully find jobs amidst the job shortage and economic crisis.
It had certainly not been easy, especially once her mother became ill due to the poor factory working conditions. All the smoke had left her with a terrible sounding cough, and it had recently reached the point where her mother was not able to even get out of bed. It put an enormous amount of pressure on Martina to take care of both her mother and her sister. She was unable to work any more hours at the factory so with only one source of income, their money was extremely tight, leading to Aleyda and Martina stealing food and any kind of medicine to help their mother. Aleyda had offered numerous times to help her sister out and get a job, but Martina refused. Aleyda had her heart set on becoming a writer, and Martina would be damned if she let her sister drop out of school and risk losing the chance at a proper education that could make her dreams come true.
That led her back to now, trying to escape the police officers that witnessed her and her sister robbing a drugstore. Martina dropped the trash can lid and ran out of the alley, leaving the policemen in a heap on the ground. As soon as she was far enough away, Martina stopped running and bent over, putting her hands on her knees, wheezing. She waited a moment to calm herself down, and began her walk back home to their small apartment. The Garcia family lived in a one bedroom apartment on the lower east side, with Aleyda sharing the bedroom with their mother, and Martina taking the couch. She looked at the Manhattan sunset and prayed that her sister made it back safely, and had already given the food and medicine to their mother so Martina could just go to bed.
✩✩✩✩
Martina sighed and leaned against the back of her front door once she made it back home. Her muscles ached from all the physical activity, and all she wanted was to get a good sleep before work the next morning.
She smiled slightly as she heard her mother, Seleste, cursing out her sister in spanish. Martina assumed that Aleyda was trying to give her some of the medicine. She winced as Seleste started coughing. Martina knew that she should go in there and help her sister, but she couldn’t find the strength. It had been a long day, and selfishly, she needed a break, even if it was just for the night.
Martina groaned in pain as she laid down on the small and uncomfortable couch. She didn’t bother changing into more comfortable sleepwear or taking her shoes off, the minute her head hit the pillow she was asleep.
She was awoken a few hours later by a loud knock at the door. Her blood ran cold. It was already past nine, it was very unusual that they had guests this late, and Martina feared that it was deportation officers, or even the police she had been chased by only hours before.
Martina slowly got off the couch, trying to be as quiet as possible in order to not alert whoever was outside the door and her family. She went into the kitchen and grabbed a small and easily concealable knife, just in case, and moved towards the front door. She hid the knife in one hand and opened the door with the other, plastering a fake friendly smile on her face.
The smile morphed into a look of confusion as she saw a woman standing on the other side of the door. The strange woman was slightly taller than Martina, wearing a green uniform of some kind with pin curled hair and red lipstick. Martina felt slightly insecure, she couldn’t even imagine how horrible she must have looked in that moment in her wrinkled uniform standing in front of the beautiful stranger.
“Hello.” The woman had a strange accent. While Martina herself had an accent, this woman was different. It was unlike anything she had heard before.
“Hello?” Martina questioned, still very confused as to what this woman was doing at her door at this late hour. She clenched the knife a little tighter.
“Miss Garcia I presume?”
Martina nodded. “Yes. How can I help you?”
The woman smiled. “My name is Peggy Carter. I have a proposition for you, Miss Garcia. May I come in?”
Martina narrowed her eyes skeptically, but moved aside slightly, allowing Peggy inside. Peggy Carter looked around the small apartment, taking in the cramped space. Martina’s cheeks flushed in embarrassment. Surely a woman as well put together as this came from money and was not used to being in such a small place.
“I know it’s not much.” Martina broke the silence.
Peggy shook her head. “No, it’s lovely. It’s quite remarkable how you’ve managed to take care of your mother and sister for this long.”
Martina’s head snapped around. “How do you know that?”
Peggy gave her a kind smile. “I can assure you I mean no harm. My colleagues and I are very impressed by you, Miss Garcia. And the way you fought our agents this afternoon only proves my theory about you.”
Martina remembered the knife in her hand. She revealed her weapon and kept it pointed at Peggy. “Who are you?” She asked in fear.
Peggy put her hands up in surrender, trying to deescalate the situation. She told Howard that Martina would not respond well to her showing up unannounced. “Let’s start over, shall we? My name is Peggy Carter and I work for the United States military. I believe you are the perfect candidate for a project we are working on. If you help me, I can help you.” Peggy started to inch towards Martina, she relaxed as Martina put down the knife.
“Now, I think we should sit down. There’s much to discuss.”

Sneak peek from Chapter X of "red"
“I know it wasn’t you.” Zara said, looking at Tommy carefully. “Did you see who left the room the second Arthur said it was safe for Freddie?”
Tommy’s eyes widened in realization. “She didn’t. She couldn’t have.” He sunk down into a booth.
“I told you there was something off about her.” Zara sat down next to him, still distanced.
He looked at her sadly. “I’m so sorry, love. I didn’t think offering Lizzie money would hurt you, I just wanted to protect John.” Tommy put his head in his hands.
Zara carefully scooted closer to him, placing one of her hands on his back comfortingly. “I know, Tommy. I’m not mad anymore, but can you blame me for feeling hurt? I mean, what are we doing here?” She gave a fake laugh.
Tommy lifted his head and looked at Zara, a strange look in his eyes. Zara felt him staring and looked at him weirdly. “Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked.
Tommy leaned closer and gently cupped her jaw, leaning her head up towards him. Zara’s breath got caught in her throat, as Tommy’s eyes flickered from her eyes to her lips. She slowly leaned closer until she felt Tommy’s breath fanning over her lips. Tommy closed his eyes and finally closed the gap between them, connecting his lips to hers. Zara melted into the kiss, wrapping her arms around Tommy’s neck as one hand settled in his hair, the other clutching at his collar. Tommy felt his heartbeat run wild, as he finally kissed the girl he’d been in love with for years. Their lips moved in sync, as Tommy pulled her impossibly close, eager to feel as much of her against him as he possibly could. Zara finally broke the kiss when she needed to pull away for air, the both of them breathing heavily, staring at each other still wrapped in each other’s arms.
