She nods as she rummages in her bag and pulls out two flasks.

“That’s great… here. I brought coffee.” She holds one out to me, giving me a smile.

“Well… I was waiting for you… so I couldn’t sleep, anyway. Take what you wish from it.” She nudges me slightly.

I smirk. “I’ll take it that you really missed me and couldn’t sleep without my arms around you?” I murmur, wrapping my arm around her. She blushes, rolling her eyes before she rests her head against my chest.

“Maybe,” she whispers.

We fall into a pleasant silence, staring at the trees and the moon…

“Yeah? Maybe someday we could live someplace like this- like permanently.
