Luci blinked for a moment and nodded. "It's okay, duty calls like you said" she said and helped him to get the catling back to the palace. 

While they all cared for the catling, Luci started to beat up on of the punching bags. She was a little bit in a bad mood. She had hoped that Derek and she would kiss or something, not end up helping someone and almost a mile away from each other.. Emotionally then. She let out all her frustration and it helped.
