"Can I walk you to your car?"
She didn't recognize the voice. She looked over her shoulder as she took a step backward. For the moment, all she could do was stare at him.
"Thank you, that's nice of you," was all she could think of to say. For their first time in some form of conversation, she wished her words held more eloquence.
She ran her hand through her hair in a nervous manner.
The short walk across the par
king lot was silent but was obviously from their expressions, delightful.She unlocked the car door and he opened it. He took her one empty hand in his. For a moment their eyes met. Both had been waiting for a moment such as this. Both wondering what would come next.
"By the way Gwen, my name is Casey,"
She wondered how he knew her name.
"Well then Casey, thanks for walking me to my car. It's nice to meet you."
She sat behind the steering wheel and turned on the ignition.
Casey shut the door for her.
Gwen found herself sealing this moment to memory.
