Page 46 of Luca & Luna

Nicky wasn’t in any urgent danger and I could wait a few hours for a better check-in.

I distracted myself with cleaning and texting Luna between tasks.

Sunshine:

You’re super sure she’s okay?

Luca:

That’s what Mom said

Sunshine:

Ugh

I caught her right before she went for a nap

What if the pack she’s with is secretly terrible?

Luca:

Don’t put that worry in my head :(

I’ll be going over with my fam this weekend to meet everyone

Jasper and Gabe seem really nice

Oh!! Jasper gave me his number when I met them a couple weeks ago

I’ll message him and see what’s going on

Luca:

Jasper, hey, how’s Nicky?

Jasper:

She’s safe. Resting right now

Have you talked to her?

Luca:

Just a brief check-in

I know she’s stubborn about accepting help sometimes but if YOU think of anything I can do for her, will you let me know?

Jasper:

Absolutely

I think we’ve got it handled for the moment with all five of us on duty

She’ll be happy to see you this weekend

I huffed, wishing there were something more active for me to do, but Jasper was right. A pack of five could handle anything Nicky needed.

The rest of the week passed like molasses in winter. It was a good thing I had seen Luna before getting that call because I wouldn’t have been able to focus for shit. By the time Sunday rolled around and I was getting ready to head over to see Nicky, I was a ball of nerves.
