Raquel watched Tamesis with slight concern in her eyes, biting her lip slightly. He seemed to look the way she felt, though she didn't know why she felt that way. "I just came back," she murmured, looking down. She glanced back up when he picked up the daisy, watchin ghis fingers move over and around it before he released it. She smiled a small smile, her lips curving upwards, then sighed, glancing at Oku. She grinned suddenly, then pulled her legs up into a cross-legged position, sitting on the ground in one fluid movement. "I don't know about you two, but I'm sitting," she murmured, then smiled again, picking up a daisy in between her long, slender fingers.

Damon watched her silently, a bit captivated by her. Despite running into him, she had recovered quickly, with a light humor about it, and was now simply sitting down, looking at the grass surrounding them as if nothing had happened.

He hesitated, then followed behind her, finally drawing to her side. He looked curiously at the swing, wondering why it fascinated her so. And then he heard her words. Everything clicked into place. He sighed quietly, moving one hand to rub the back of his neck, at a loss on what to say.
