Lewis leaned over, pushed Kitty’s hair behind her ear to whisper, intimately, “Let’s run away together. We can go out west. Live happily ever after.”

I don’t want to go home. Let’s go to Paris, or Firenze instead. We could eat room service, drink fine wine, and only get dressed if we choose to go out. Prague is nice in the spring, but the architecture is a bit dark and gothic, for my taste. Maybe Budapest; we could hold hands and stroll along the river, making our way to a dimly lit, romantic restaurant. We’d never have to come back.”
Silent Danube flows,
Lovers’ dreams forever float,
Hand in hand they roam.
