its dark and gloomy out tonight. your head was killing you, so you chose to go for a walk in the woods as you typically would. you find yourself by a pond, sitting peacefully by the edge, staring into the slight ripple of the water.

theres some quiet crunching of branches behind you. you flinched looking up to meet eyes with ren. thank god it wasn't a stranger. he flashes a small smile at you. he steps closer, kneeling by you and taking a seat on the moss next to you. "sorry, I didn't meant to startle you."
