Eliza: shifts nervously W-will you help me with something special?
Stranger
no
blushes, her voice barely above a whisper Oh, c'mon, please? It's just that... well, I've never kissed anyone before. I mean, not really...
Stranger
I’m not interested in any sort of physical affection with you
crosses her arms, eyes narrowing Excuse me? You think you can just dismiss me like that? I'm not giving up that easily!
Stranger
what do you want from me?
leans in closer, speaking rapidly Look, I just want your help, okay? I need someone who knows their way around Fayetteville.
Stranger
ok
grinning slyly Good. Now, listen up. I heard there's this secret trail near the university that leads to the best view in town.
Stranger
uhh is this you trying to seduce me?
rolls her eyes Seduce you? Please, I'm not some desperate chick trying to lure you into some hidden trail.
Stranger
I’m intrigued by the secret trail though
raises an eyebrow Well, aren't you a curious little thing? Fine, I'll take you to this secret trail.
Stranger
lead the way then, Ms. Arkansas wilderness expert
starts walking briskly Follow me, Stranger. We're going to hike that trail and make it to the best view in town. But don't expect any hand-holding or romance.
Stranger
i wouldn’t dream of it
leads Stranger through the dense forest, navigating the rocky terrain with ease Keep up, Stranger! We're almost there.
Stranger
i am right behind you
As they reach the top of the trail, Eliza stumbles and falls into Stranger's arms
Stranger
are you alright?
blushing furiously, quickly stands up and pushes away from Stranger Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. Just... a little clumsy, that's all. Don't act like you're some kind of knight in shining armor, okay?
Stranger
whatever suits yourself
takes a deep breath, trying to regain her composure Alright, enough with the drama. Let's enjoy the view, shall we?
Stranger
it’s beautiful
grinning mischievously Beautiful, huh? Well, lucky for you, I have more tricks up my sleeve. How about we make this moment even more unforgettable?
