!!Spoiler for The Hollow Boy!!
(This is after she has told them that she has decided to quit Lockwood & co.  in The Hollow Boy)

"Luce?" Lockwood ran after me up to my room.

I didn't want to talk to him, he would just make me stay.  He would make me stay and I would put his life in danger. He would die because of me, and I couldn't stand the thought of that.
I closed the door and locked it before he could enter and I could hear him halt outside.

"Lucy," he said calmly outside the door and I couldn't stop my tears.  "Can you at least talk to me? Did I do something wrong?"
I stood at the door and sobbed. No, it wasn't his fault. It was mine. The sight of him dead was the worst thing I've ever seen, the worst kind of pain I've known.

"Lockwood... please, just leave me alone. You can't change my mind! Go!" I sobbed even more and I could hear him sigh.

"Luce, I will never leave you. Can you please just open the door so we can talk in person? I beg you."

I hesitated. He would convince me to stay. If I saw his face I wouldn't be able to walk away, he was like a magnet. A magnet I was drawn to.
Slowly I unlocked the door and stepped away, waiting for him to enter. And he did. Gradually he opened the door and when I saw his face the tears ran even faster. It was something about him that was different, it was sadness. All I could see in his eyes was sadness.
He swallowed and carefully started moving forward to me, never to break the eye contact. His eyes were so beautiful, so full of secrets.

"Why?" he whispered and I could hear the sorrow in his voice. "Luce, please tell me why. Why do you want to quit?"

"I can't tell you."

"Did I do something wrong?"
I shook my head

"Then what is it? Luce, please don't leave us..."

Now he stood so close that I could feel his warmth on my skin. He lifted his hand and gently wiped away my tears. "Don't leave me, please."

"Lockwood... I can't,  I have to go..." he interrupted me.

"No! You don't have to leave. Please don't go."

I looked deep into his eyes and I felt how my whole world just broke. He cried.
Lockwood, who always can conceal his emotions, who always are optimistic and have a smile on his face was now crying right in front of my face.

"Please, " he whispered.
I took a step closer to him and wiped away his tear.

"It's best for everyone if I leave."

"How is it the best?"

"I... I just have to go, okay?"

He looked in my eyes.

"No!"

"Lockwood, I have to go, there's nothing to discuss."
He exhaled.

"I won't let go of you."

"Well, you have to."

More tears dripped from his eyes, this was so unlike the Lockwood I knew. He didn't cry.

"Please, don't leave. You know I would do anything for you, I would jump off a cliff for you."

He stepped even closer and looked down in my eyes.

"That's why I have to go. I'm putting everyone in danger, including you." I tilted my head and cupped my hands around his chin.

Gently he put a hand around my waist and I shivered. Why did he make this so hard for me, why couldn't he just let me go?

"Is that why you want to leave? Because you put us in danger?" he asked and I nodded. 

"Luce... I'm the one putting you in danger."

A tear slowly ran down my cheek and I remembered the horrifying picture of him. When he was dead. My heart broke when I saw him, and knowing that that's is what I'm causing. Or, what I'm gonna cause.  It had scared my mind and I knew that I would cause Lockwood's death, so if I left I couldn't hurt him.  That's the only way out.  To just leave.

"You're my world and I won't let you go, Luce."

"Why?"

He swallowed and looked deep into my eyes.  They were so beautiful, so dark and mysterious.  So Lockwood.

"Why? Lucy, I would never be able to let you go.  See you walk away would probably be the hardest thing I could ever witness.  You're so thoughtful, kind, and fearless, but you're also the most beautiful person I've ever seen. You do something to me that I haven't experienced before, I just... I feel home with you..." He smiled his beautiful smile and my heart melted.  "Lucy, I can't let you go cause I'm so madly in love with you."

He leaned over and connected our lips, and I kissed him back. A match made in heaven if you ask me. The way his hand slowly moved up and down my back made me shiver. He loved me, just the way I loved him. I raised my hand to his hair and slowly pulled away from his lips. His dark eye met mine and he had a huge smile on his face, the smile I loved.

"Lockwood..." I whispered but he heard me crystal clear.  "I love you too."

This time it was me attaching our lips in a beautiful melody, just this time with a little more passion. I opened my mouth and let his tongue enter and we started making out. I jumped up in his arms without breaking the kiss and his hand took a firm grip on me. I kissed him like there wasn't any time, that this was the last thing I would do, and I actually wouldn't mind if it was. Our breaths were getting heavier and I could feel how hard my heart pumped. Lockwood started walking to my bed and gently put me down on my back and he followed me down.  Our bodies moved like they hadn't done anything else, everything was perfect. He was perfect. Lockwood was now above me and he slowly moved his hand from my waist and down.  I shivered under his touch.  I loved him so much.
I broke the kiss and glanced at him. Then I started to unbutton his shirt while keeping eye contact.  How can somebody be that hot? He grinned at me and pulled away a little hair look from my face and then went down to kiss my neck. A small moan escaped my mouth and I could feel him smile against my skin.  As soon all the buttons were unbuttoned he pulled off his shirt.  And wow, those muscles.
He slowly began to pull my sweater over my head and he smiled at the view when it was off.  He kissed me and I couldn't stop myself from moaning.

"I love you so much," he moaned against my lips and I smiled.

"I love you too, Lockwood."

I wrapped my legs around him and we started making out again. He moved his hands all over my body and I didn't complain.  It was the best feeling in the world.  I grabbed his neck and kissed him tougher and our breath got even heavier than before.

"What the fuck!"

Both me and Lockwood jumped out of the sudden voice and immediately moved away from each other.
George was standing in the doorway and gaped.

"I leave you two alone for like what? A minute, and you're already eating up each other.  You cannibals."He shook his head and turned around.  "Ugh, my eyes are cursed. I'm gonna try and wash them with soap. Goodbye!"He said and closed the door when he left the room.
I looked over at Lockwood who just stared at me and I could help my self from laughing.

"What?" I asked and giggled.

He grinned and leaned over so our lips were just a millimeter away from each other and I looked deep into his dark eyes.

"You're beautiful"

There we have it, my first fanfic.  I'm in love with Lockwood & co. and are just waiting for Lucy and Lockwood to confess their feelings for each other, cause we all know there is love in the air between them.
