Ladd was excited. It was an excitement usually only permitted to him when he would have those fleeting conversations with Lua- The ones where he would think and obsess over how she would die, the sight, the smell and most importantly the sound- That last choking breath of air that a dead person made. The sounds that soothed Ladd's soul.

But now it was within his reach. It was so soon. So soon he would get to kill as many people as he wanted. People who thought they were never going to goddamn die, but Ladd would show those stupid-

That's when he noticed how worried Lua looked. He paused for a few moments, tilting his head slightly as if trying to figure out the cause of her anxiety. He failed.

"What's the matter with you?" he asked.

Lua stopped her pacing and looked up. There wasn't much of an expression on her face but seeing Ladd was somewhat of a comfort to her. She was probably just being silly worrying about this. There wasn't anything to be worried about.

"It's nothing." She didn't want to ruin his good mood, if it wasn't already too late.

Ladd stared at her for a few more moments. Ladd wasn't great at reading expressions, but he could tell when Lua was upset.

"Now, don't say that! I know when something is bothering you and something is definitely bothering you." he rambled, staring into her eyes. He moved closer to her, clutching her arms in a way that would stop her from pacing. "What it is? Are you worried about tomorrow?" he questioned.

Lua stared back into those blue eyes while he talked. She didn't mind the tight grip on her arms. Finally she averted her eyes to anywhere else and nodded. That was her only response to the questioning.
