He took Kalvin's offered hand, letting the elder lead him over to the Thames River. For approximately ten minutes, the two strolled alongside the clear water. As they did so, they spoke about anything and everything. About William's parents' reaction to the "gay news headline of the year" (as Kalvin called it), to the rising crime rates, and even of possibilities for the future. By the time Kalvin stopped walking, they had reached the center of the London Bridge. William smiled, taking in the sights of his beloved city in the night. While he could not see the stars, he was able to take in the glowing London Tower, the ever-active Tower Bridge, and the hundreds of people who resided in the old, historic city. It was here, he realized later on, that his life had been changed forever.

The water tank towered above us, its ladder reaching from bottom to top, but a locked gate stood in our way, surrounded by a daunting barbed wire fence. We ascended the stairs and mirrored his movements as he climbed over the gate. Once he was over, he reached back to help me through. I couldn't shake the thought that this wasn't exactly how I pictured spending my evening at 8 o'clock. Taking a deep breath, I crossed the threshold, a mix of fear and excitement coursing through me. This was my first time here, and I had no idea what awaited us. As we continued up the last flight of stairs, I finally reached the top of the water tank-and my jaw dropped in awe. "Wow," I breathed, completely captivated by the scene before me-a moment straight out of a movie. He guided me to a comfortable spot, and I couldn't help but smile. "This is everything I've ever wanted." We sat under the moonlight, the city lights twinkling in the distance, the cool breeze wrapping around us like a gentle embrace. As he moved behind me, his arms encircled me, bringing warmth and a sense of security that made this moment even more magical.
