Taking in the views is the reason we’re here, after all.” I was planning on teasing him for his grand feelings about the word grand, but then he said that last bit and my mind went blank. Not because he’s so excited to walk up this first stretch of road, but because when he said he was here for the view, he looked directly at me. Like I’m the view he’s here for. Like a day spent looking at me would be a day well spent.
