Tao's POV
My hands tremble slightly as I wait for Stormy to pick me up.
Four minutes to go.
My nerves jump from side to side as I, once again, critically observe my carefully selected outfit.
I had chosen a cosy, mustard-yellow jumper with my freshly-washed light jeans. On my feet, lay sunflower socks and light brown shoes. Finally a grey hat, with a bee stitched on, sat on my messy, white hair.

I sigh slightly, wondering if I have time to change, when the doorbell rings.
I look at the clock, 5pm exactly.
He's here.
I clamber up from my soft, black sofa- rushing to the door. Calming my trembling fingers, I open it quietly.
My breath catches in my throat.
There he is. Stormy blue, wearing a stunning outfit- simple yet stylish.
Tight, black, ripped jeans paired with a plain black t-shirt and a textured denim jacket. Matching all that is a patterned scarf, laying on his thick neck. His shoes are plain black timberlands; they tie the whole look together.

He smiles at me fondly, holding out his rough hand as if to say, 'shall we?'
I place my soft hand in his. We shall.
...
The gentle hum of the radio caresses my ears, the bumpy road pushing the car up and down.
This journey is unlike the others that I have experienced.
I usually feel suffocated; endangered; terrified, yet now all I feel is peace and tranquility. It's amazing what the presence of one person can do.
