The sun finally peaked through the clouds the first time that week. Daniel was first to wake up as per usual, and had prepared breakfast. Because the sun was out, he decided on bringing the food outside on the patio.

So, when Clara walked down, expecting the usual good morning from the driver, she was confused as to where he was. She was just about to call out to him when she heard Daniel's voice from outside. "Lara."

Clara walked closer to the patio door, "Danny." she called out to him. She heard him chuckle a bit, "Good morning. The sun is out." he simply said as he poked his head back inside the house.

And he was glad he did. He saw how her eyes lit up, her lips turning up into an excited smile, it made him smile as well.

"Really?" she asked excitedly. Daniel hummed and nodded, "Yeah. Come see." Clara rushed out to see the outside. She had always loved sunny weather, something Daniel had learned the hard way.

Hearing her walk around the house at night when the rain was hard, until he would join her and she falls asleep on the couch. That was when he found out how much she hated the rain and storms. He had messaged Max multiple times what he could do to help him. And despite the confusion on Max's mind, the Dutch driver was just glad that his best friend was not alone in a hotel and is with someone he trusted very much.

But when Clara reached the outside, she stopped. She saw the table and her lips parted. Her heart was hammering in her chest and she can't seem to calm it down. Traitor.

"Let's have breakfast out here for today." Daniel said from behind her. He was studying her reaction, not wanting to over step to any boundaries.

"Danny..."

"Lara."

"You did this?" she asked as she finally turned to him. He smiled softly at her and nodded, "For a change in our morning? Yes. For you? Yes."
