Timmy found himself drawn into the moment, his nerves slowly dissolving as he absorbed her words. Her calmness, her ease in handling their conversation, had a way of soothing his anxieties.
Yet, underneath the surface, his mind raced in every direction. How was he supposed to act around her? What was she thinking?
As she glanced back at the expansive view, Timmy followed her gaze. The sun was beginning to dip lower, casting long shadows across the landscape. The sky turned a warm, golden hue, the colors mirroring the sudden warmth that spread through his chest. He hadn't expected to be here with her, let alone in this quiet, almost intimate setting. It was all too much to process, but he didn't want to let it slip away.
He couldn't help but ask, his voice a little softer now, "What do you think of the place? The view, I mean. It's... kind of incredible."
