Everything about the last week had been so unexpected and so wonderful, Cathal couldn't stop smiling wherever he went. And that certainly included today when he was actually with the cause of his delight.
The sun was coming down on them today and Cathal's skin felt warm and alive. His outfit didn't quite match Marcie's gorgeous vintage red and white, all in mustards and browns himself, but he was happy to be outshone by her. Marcie surely outshone everyone in a room anyway.
After they had been silent for a minute, listening to the birds and watching the clouds, Cathal sighed happily and said, "this is so nice. I'm glad I got out of work for this."
