Her hand rests on top of his

As they eat their gourmet food.

She finds herself nervous

To be hiding something.

He's always been so open

And honest.

But it's for his own good.

"How has the tour been so far?"

She asks, waiting for him to say

Amazing.

But instead:

"Alright, I wish you were here."

She smiles and looks down

"I do too."

He notices how she's acting

But doesn't call her out

Knowing she'll tell him

When the time is right

But he is curious

And he loves her.

"What's wrong?"

He stops eating and gives her all his attention.

But she is nervous

And she is scared

This is his life

And this will ruin him.

"Nothing."
