At the end of the day, with the sun slowly setting, Alice decided to stroll down the wet sands of the beach, where the water moved with the tides and touched their legs.
"This was fun." Alice said as she held aside her hair that was softly flying with the wind.
"Yes, it was." Leo responded, and Alice smiled at him.
He wasn't there for the first half because he said he needed to recharge, but she noticed he had been rather quiet. Was he enjoying himself? She couldn't tell.
But when he said yes, just now, it did seem like he enjoyed himself.
"And nothing about what you worried about came to pass." Leo added, and she snapped, smiling in embarrassment.
"Yeah."
Since everyone was having so much fun, no one approached her with the intent of confessing their feelings.
"Hey, Leo," she called, suddenly having that low and worrisomely emotional tone.
(If that's even a thing, lol)
"Do you think we can protect this peace?" She asked.
