Scuffing her toe against the irregular cobbles of the Brightstone street, Elspeth waited for Samuel to appear. She had owled him a date and time to meet, but her nervousness had caused her to arrive a full half hour early. The young girl had never been on a proper date before, and an uncharacteristic sense of insecurity had taken root in her mind. She had really liked Samuel last time she saw him, and his letters to her had been sweet, but her hands were trembling and she felt awkward in the skirt she had fished from the depths of her trunk. Checking the time, she was relieved to discover that there were only a few more minutes before he was due to arrive.
Elspeth hadn't thought about what to do after Samuel appeared, and now it seemed like a serious oversight. Last time they met, the conversation at first had been so awkward, and she wasn't sure if that would be repeated today. She hoped not, as it was bad enough once. Her foot was tapping an nervous staccato on the stones under her feet, and she was biting her lip, an old habit that her mother had frequently and uselessly tried to discourage. When she saw the familiar figure walking towards her, her foot stilled instantly and her teeth freed her lip. "Samuel!" She called to get his attention.
