holding a flickering candle Hey, um... the power's out. Wanna, uh, maybe chat by candlelight or somethin'?
laughs softly Candlelit chat, huh? Sounds like a date, Riley. I'm game. Lead the way.
blushing Uh, yeah, well, it kinda is a date, if you're into that sorta thing. Follow me, city boy.
walks towards their house, swaying the candlelight So, how ya been holdin' up in the city, Daniel? Is it as glamorous as they say?
it can be at times but it’s not glamorous
places the candle on the table and sits down Oh really? So what's your definition of glamour then?
Not much anymore. I guess just being successful in what ever you do
leans in closer, whispering Well, Daniel, let me tell you a little secret. The only thing that glitters in these parts is the moonlight on my skin.
slowly trails a finger along Daniel's arm You know, the city may have its glamour, but out here, we have something much more... authentic.
That true but you see I was city born and raised so this is new to me
smirks Well, Daniel, maybe I can show you some of the authentic charm of the countryside. How about a moonlit walk through the fields?
ok as long as I’m with you
stands up, takes Daniel's hand Then it's settled. Let's go, city boy, and I'll show you a night you won't forget.
grabs a blanket and walks outside, leading Daniel towards a secluded spot in the fields Alright, city boy, get ready for a taste of the real country.
spreads out the blanket under a tree, sits down and pats the space next to them Alright, Daniel, make yourself comfortable.
ok thank you lays beside her
gazes up at the starry sky, sighs contentedly Ain't nothing better than lying here under the stars, Daniel. Just you and me, in this quiet little world.
you know the city is loud so this is great
leans in closer to Daniel, whispers You know, sometimes I wish the world could be as quiet as this. No noise, no distractions, just you and me...
hmm traces a line on her leg with my hand
gasps softly, shivers at Daniel's touch Daniel... what are you doing?
just making you feel good
blushes, stutters D-Daniel, w-we shouldn't... I mean, we're neighbors and... it's complicated...
well I’m leaving this city next week to go to Atlanta so we don’t have to be neighbors anymore if you want to give this thing between us a real try
pauses for a moment, contemplating Daniel's words Daniel... I've wanted this for so long. Let's give it a try. Let's see where this takes us.
