I had only known Fox for a few short weeks, but being next to him was my favorite place to be. 

Have you ever wanted to listen to everything someone has to say just because you wanted to hear their voice? Or stare at them just because you love their smile, their nose, and well, just their face in general? Or just sit next to them because they exist?

Altair: Mercy! Mercy! I give up.

Foxglove: Are you sure you don’t want more?

Altair: If I laugh anymore I’m pretty sure I’ll explode. 

81 Days until the incident…

It was exciting, having a secret friendship.

There is an amazing spot just behind the manor, right next to the creek that we watch the sunset at. It’s full of wildflowers and tall trees and when the sun goes down the light turns the shadows the loveliest shades of purple and pink.

Soon enough Fox was stopping by almost every day. 

Foxglove: Just promise me next time you won’t break computers to get me here.

Altair: No promises!

Foxglove: You’re right. That was a lot of fun.

Altair: Wait until you see it with bubbles in it!

Foxglove: Altair, don’t

Altair: Too late, already in.

Foxglove: You’re kind of a troublemaker aren’t you?

Altair: Does that make you not want to see me anymore?

Foxglove: I didn’t say that.

Foxglove: Did you seriously just push me in?

Altair: Don’t be a baby! Live a little. Haven’t you ever played in a fountain?

Foxglove: Not exactly. 

Altair: Just splash a little, trust me it will be fun. 

Altair: Since you’re here, let’s do something fun.

Foxglove: You know I’m on the clock, right?

Altair: Just say it took longer than you thought it would to fix. I mean, I’m your witness so it’s not like anyone will ever find out about it.

Foxglove: I guess I could stay for a little while.

Altair: Come on, climb up here with me.

Foxglove: What are you going to—whoa!

Foxglove: Altair, what I’m trying to say is there’s no way that would randomly happen. Someone would have to have done it to the computer.

Altair: Would you believe me if I said I did it on accident?

Foxglove: Not for a second. Look, it doesn’t matter if you did it or not. I’m just not sure why you would do it.

Altair: Maybe…I, kind of, wanted… to see you again?

Foxglove: Wait? What?

Altair: It’s just so boring around here and I had a lot of fun the last time you were here. 

Foxglove: You could have just asked me.

Altair: It’s not that simple.
