“Just because you don’t look like somebody who you think is attractive doesn’t mean you aren’t attractive. Flowers are pretty, but so are sunsets and they look nothing alike.“

        ❛    That’s  ..  that’s so sweet.    ---    And true, I guess.    ❜        Summer gives him a smile, as she truly appreciates his words of encouragement, which also functioned as an analogy. She supposed that he was right, after all.        ❛    You got a pocket-sized book of proverbs or something?    ❜        She’s joking, of course, but coming up with something like that on the fly?    ...    Very impressive.

“At least the last thing they’d see would be you,” Dean says, laying on the charm. Dean looks up at where the stars should be. It is beautiful, but he soon finds himself staring down at the blonde. It was amazing how excited she got over her home. Dean wishes he had a home like that. He hadn’t been to Lawrence in so long…

“You know, in the rural cities,” he starts with a knowing smile. “The stars are almost so bright that they can light the sky. Maybe one day you’ll get to see ‘em like that.”

His hands grip the railing as he shakes his head. “But being on the road… I never really get to slow down & enjoy it like this.”

        ❛    Wow. Tacky.    ---    Kinda liked it though.    ❜        Summer gives him a grin and a shake of her head, blonde waves soon bouncing around as she turns her head to stare out at the skyline before them. It was truly beautiful, and sights like this made her appreciate her city even more. She was glad she got to share it with someone who had never seen it before. It almost made everything more magical. 

        ❛    I wish I got to see the stars more often. When I go far enough out of state, or even just upstate, I get to see them. It’s a nice change.    ❜        She takes a moment to glance over at him. He seems momentarily saddened? nostalgic? about the view before him. He had mentioned he’d been on the road a lot, but Summer had no idea how much it really was, until she saw the look on his face.        ❛    I’m glad you got to see this, then. I think it’s one of the most beautiful places to just  ..    ❜        She takes a breath, exhaling slowly as she shuts her eyes for a moment.    ❛        ---    Exist.    ❜

He doesn’t want to admit that she’s right. That paperwork is far from the job that keeps him going everyday. But instead, he lets her keep thinking that. Her excitement is contagious. After all, he’d never seen too many wonderful sites riding around… usually they were too busy trying to make it to the next case to slow down.

“Kansas,” he says truthfully this time. “Lawrence to be exact.” 

He smiled as he realized where they were going.” You usually walk strange men here late at night?” He jokes.

        ❛    Ooh, Kansas. Nice. Never been.    ❜        As they walk alongside one another, Summer can’t help but to let out a laugh at Dean’s comment. It was nice to know he had a similar sense of humor, that was easy enough to tell.        ❛    Yeah, all the time. They don’t suspect that I’d ever put them in danger, you know? I don’t really look like the type.    ❜        She pauses for a moment, letting her words sink in  ---  though he can probably tell she’s joking  ---  before smiling widely up at him.        ❛    Be grateful I’m giving you a tour, Dean. New Yorkers aren’t supposed to be nice.    ❜        It’s a blatant stereotype, and it’s actually not all true, but she loves feeding into it to people who are from out-of-town. 

        After a bit of walking, they arrive at their destination, and Summer is soon leading him onto the bridge.        ❛    The, uh .. pollution blocks the stars, but ...  just imagine them, okay?  --  The skyline is just as pretty, though. In my opinion.    ❜

"you're beautiful." - from dean

        Is that blush spreading upon the young woman’s cheeks? It takes a lot to get Summer to legitimately blush, but there is something about the way Dean compliments her that makes it feel so .. different. With a soft smile, the blonde looks up at him, tucking a piece of her hair behind her ear. Her voice comes out surprisingly soft as she responds, as if the words are almost too nervous to come out normally.        ❛    Stop that.    ❜        She says it teasingly, of course, because she doesn’t know what else to say in that very moment, and her words are even accompanied by a very quiet giggle.        ❛    You’re being .. really cute right now, you know that, Dean?    ❜

“And what makes you think I’m not a paperwork kind of guy?”

But then she stands, readying to show him everything right now. And just like that, he’s more than just interested. At first, she was just pretty. Now, he’s intrigued to see what she’ll show him and why. With a little chuckle, he picks up his coffee, standing as well. 

“You’re something else, you know that?” He finally says, shrugging his jacket back on. “And you’ve lived here your entire life?”

        ❛    ---    I don't know. Wild guess. I was wrong, anyway.    ❜        She gives him a shrug before heading down the sidewalk, gesturing for him to follow her. Usually, it was easy to get lost whilst traveling with one person, but at this hour, it was much easier to navigate the streets without having to worry about losing someone. Summer looks over to him, nodding curtly as a proud smile crosses her lips. What can she say? She’s proud of it.        ❛    Yep. All my life.    ---    Where are you from?    ❜ 

        She’s leading him towards the Brooklyn Bridge; it’s only a few blocks away, and though she has no intention of walking the entire thing, they were close-by and Summer knew that tourists loved to walk on it -- if only for just a little while. It was even better that it was nighttime, because it wouldn’t be too crowded.        ❛    You’re alright with going over water, I assume? I wanna show you the Brooklyn Bridge.    ---    Great view.    ❜

       sam takes the seat next to her best friend.    it’s not often that they get to have moments like this,    with sam living in mississippi for most of the time    &   summer living in new york.    but it’s moments like this that she’s most grateful for nonetheless.    a hand lays on her shoulder, squeezing gently. 

     "   i’m not the best to weigh in on this,    especially since i’ve never even been in a relationship,   “    —    way to sound pathetic, samantha    —    ”   but it’s going to get easier, i promise.    sometimes things don’t make sense.    &    you know i’m the last one to go preaching about things all being part of a bigger plan,    but i am one huge fan of fate.    &    somethings are hard   …    but they’re meant to happen. “

        ❛    I know. I know you’re right. I just  ...  ugh.    ---    I don’t even know where I was going with that.    ❜        She rolls over in order to rest her head on Sam’s lap. Summer is grateful that her friend here to support her at a time like this; when she felt so lonely, it was good to know she had someone that would never leave. She pauses for a moment, lips pressing together as she is in deep thought before she speaks up again.        ❛    Part of me wants to something like .. really wild right about now. Like, really bold. You get me?    ❜

    “   girl, do not make me take your phone away   ——-   ”     before sam can even finish her sentence,    the other girl has tossed her phone across the room to the other couch.    sam’s mouth falls open just slightly before she sets down the cup of hot coco she’d made for summer,    then takes a sip of the coffee she’d made for herself.     “   am i going to have to take us out day drinking?    because i swear to god that i will.   ”

        ❛    I don’t even know if day-drinking will make me feel better.  ---  Tragic.    ❜        She lays motionless on the couch for a moment before peering up at the hot cocoa set on the table before her. Slowly, Summer sits up, takes a sip of the drink  --  mutters a soft, ‘thanks,’ and then lowers herself back down onto the cushions again.        ❛    It isn’t fair, you know? Like, I really don’t fucking get it.    ❜        She doesn’t mean to keep dwelling on it, but a part of her genuinely cannot help it.

“– maybe we’ll just let it be part of the mystery,” he says with a wink. “No, it’s really boring. Mostly paperwork.”

It was a white lie, but what are the chances he’ll even see her again. His grin widens when she describes New York during the day. “I’ll be here a couple more days. My brother and I decided that we needed a little break. — Why don’t you show me around then?” 

        ❛    Hm    ...    Didn’t pin you as a paperwork kind of guy.    ❜        He almost seems too interesting for that, but Summer can only make assumptions, seeing as they had just met. When he mentions that he’ll be in the city for a while, she feels excited for some reason -- even more-so when he asks her to show him around. She closes her laptop, slipping it into her bag and pulling the strap onto her shoulder as she stands up.        ❛    Well, we might as well start the grand tour now. It’s late, so we won’t have too many crazy tourists bothering us.  ---  You coming?    ❜

     a laugh falls from his lips as she says that he could push out of the chair.     “   i don’t doubt that you could.    not even for a minute,   ”    he says through a hearty chuckle.    he extends his hand out,    her signature smile on his face.    "   m'name’s dean.   nice to meet you, summer.    "      he takes a long sip of his coffee before shrugging.    "   i guess you could say that.    my family’s business takes my brother   &   i all over the country.    we really never stay in one spot for long.   but  …   this is my first time to a really big city like this.   is it always this crazy?   “

        ❛    You too, Dean.    ❜        With a smile, Summer takes his hand and shakes it enthusiastically before her head cants slightly to the side.        ❛    Family business? What do you guys do?    ❜        She’s intrigued by his travels, but she is even more-so intrigued when he reveals that he’s never been to New York. With a light laugh, dirty blonde locks bounce as she shakes her head. It’s late at night, and sure there are people out and about -- and to any outsider, it would seem busy as hell    ---   the reality, however, was that it was currently rather quiet.        ❛    This is nothing. Just wait until you see it during the day.  --  I mean, if you’re even staying for that long.    ❜
