"Jack, it's okay."
"No, it's not. I should have never looked." He buries his face into his hands. It starts to rain harder.
"You had no idea Jack, you are human" I take his hands, and look him in the eye. "It's okay. I'm okay Jack."
His eyes lock on mine, and for a moment we are the only people in the world.
"I'm so sorry," he whispers.
"I forgive you" I say. I pause and look down at our hands. They have somehow intertwined. We shouldn't be holding hands like this.
"Come on, let's get out of the rain" I whisper. With our hands held, I silently lead him behind Johnson, past the Tower and Madrigrano, and right into the Meditation Chapel. I pull out my Yankee Candle (2X4 scented) and light it with my mind.
"Woah" he gasps.
"I learned it back in college" I respond. I toss a grin over my shoulder, to see him standing dangerously close.
"Your song was really pretty" I say.
He blushes. "It was really nothing".
"I thought it was really pretty nothing" I grin.
He grins back. I love that grin.
I feel so comfortable and nervous at the same time. Here. In this space with him. But I want to be closer to him.
"Jack?"
"Yes, Boris?"
"Can I tell you something?"
"Yes, anything."
I pause. I hesitate. I think. I wonder. I dream. I ponder. I think a little more. I hesitate again. I sigh.
I grab his hand.
"Can I tell you about the time I did improv?"
