we didn't speak much, in fact, we didn't speak at all.

after we reached the peak of the hill, I forgot all about my worries. I simply enjoyed the view infront of me. the bright city that seemed to not care about anything, was as bright as ever, neglecting all the darkness around it. the city didn't care about ones like us. it was too busy, too crowded to acknowledge our presence. there, we were nothing but shadows that dissolved when the sun rose and when the screens beamed, making us nonexistent.

however here, in this calm, dim hill, the darkness kept us warm. for some reasons, I didn't feel like an outcast - I didn't feel alone. and with you next to me, I finally believed that thats was where I belonged. and for once, I felt like you and I were similar in so many ways.

"I think we should head back"

no, I wasn't ready to leave this comfort. I wanted to stay with you a bit longer. I wanted to admire you a little more.

I wanted to maintain that new fond feeling I grew to realise - being able to help you out of your misery. I wanted to be there for you.

"can we stay here a little more?"

your eyes that were lost in the view before us, lazily looked my way before a slight smirk graced your features.

and at that exact moment, I felt calmer than I had ever felt before.

you nodded and averted your attention back to bright city that did all of this to you.
