I could practically hear her heart pounding against her chest as she stared back at me, having been caught snooping through my personal bedroom. "What are you doing in here?"

She visibly swallowed.

"I thought I lost something," she told me. "I was wondering if maybe it accidently got put in with your things."

I furrowed my brows at her; it was obvious she was lying.

"What were you looking for?" I asked; I glanced at the time. It was almost midnight. “This late at night..."

I wasn't sure what else to say; it was obvious to me that she wasn't being truthful, but I wasn't sure of the reason why. I would have understood if she told me the truth; then again, it depended on the truth. I watched as she hurried out of my room, shutting the door behind her.
