"Stefan!" No matter how much Lucia banged and screamed and kicked against the door, no answer came back. He locked her in? Was that the punishment he talked about? He actually went through with it?
Her eyes caught lightning flashing and she heard thunder rumbling in the distance. Yup! It was going to rain alright, and she was stuck in this huge room, alone.
She began to hyperventilate, "calm down Lucia, just calm down, everything will be alright", she said soothingly to herself.
She still couldn't believe he did this. He seemed so calm, she wasn't expecting him to pull any tricks. Especially risky ones like this. Why did Caroline have to step out, today of all days.
"Argh!" She kicked the door one more time, wishing that Caroline could hear it all the way in wherever she was.
