Ferris Wheel: Van & Gil
While Gil was looking forward to dancing with Van and hanging out with his brother and Felicity, but he had no problem making the rounds over the fair first. Dancing could always happen later. Gil had, in fact, dressed down for the evening, going for the casual look with a leather jacket that middled between red and black.
But Gil, as attuned as he was to his own feelings, did sometimes make room for somebody else in there. Gil tried to reach out for Van's hand, wondering why the boy was so dour and so downcast all of a sudden. Was it because Gil had missed the mark on his outfit?
No, that could not possible be it.
"It's our turn," Gil said, coaxing Van on to the ferris wheel. As soon as they had sat down, Gil leaned in and whispered: "Hey, is everything alright? You're a little... a little down."
