The fluorescent lights of the office hummed. The air seemed alive with invisible threads, all leading towards her. He felt a profound sense of… well-being, just watching her work. It filled him, this sense of quiet joy.

He wanted to be near her, to have a connection.

"Hey," he said, hoping to keep his voice steady. "Did you ever go to camp?"

She looked up from her computer, surprised. "Yes, actually. Camp Meadowbrook. Why?"

A smile spread across his face. "Me too! I was there the summer the canoes capsized." He felt a powerful urge to hear her version of that story.
