Hey! Megan! Wait up!” Megan’s heart leaped out of her…
““Hey! Megan! Wait up!” Megan’s heart leaped out of her chest as she whirled around. There he was, running toward her through the crowd, shoving people aside to get to her. Never in her life had she been so happy to see… Doug. “Where the hell do you think you’re going, yo?” He doubled over in front of her, sweat streaming down from his temples as he gasped for breath. Megan checked behind him but didn’t see anyone else in his trail. What the…? “Are you alone?” she asked. “I gotta sit,” Doug said, wheezing. He backed up clumsily and fell into the nearest vacant chair. Megan stepped out of line and followed him uncertainly. She looked around the terminal, half expecting to find a hidden camera somewhere. This had to be a joke. Doug was chasing her down?””
