Sarah led Oliver back down the hallway he had came in from. She walked sort
of slow as to not get too ahead of Oliver. He was taking his time because
he was appreciating all of the paintings and small statues on his way. Her
cottage was wonderfully furnished.
They turned down a second hallway and stopped at a large door on the right.
"This is your room, I hope you like it." Sarah said as she opened the door for Oliver.
He rolled in slowly, observing his bedchambers. It was a large room with a king-size bed, which his bags were placed by. There was a brick fireplace on the wall opposite his bed. There were a lot of windows, which lit the whole room by sunlight. It was a simple, yet elegant, room. The room was decorated with blue and red.
"Well?"
"It's great, thank you." He said still looking around.
"Your bathroom is through that door right there," She said pointing to the left.
"And your closet is through that door." She said pointing to the right.
"If you need help with anything, just holler. And find me when you're ready for lunch."
"Ok, thanks again."
"No problem." And with that, she left, closing the door behind her.
Oliver picked up his smaller bag, and headed for the bathroom. He wanted to clean up before he saw Sarah again. After about fifteen minutes, he made his way out to find her.
He saw her through the window. She was out in the garden sitting at a table that had food already on it. He went through the double-French doors and joined her at the table.
"I hope you're hungry." She said looking at the table.
"That, I always am." He said smiling.
While they ate, they talked. They talked about their opinions, their likes, dislikes, memories, anything they could to get to know each other better. They both liked the outdoors, so staying out there and talking for five hours didn't bother either of them. They found that they had many things in common. Not only the things they liked, but also their views on life were similar.
By the time they were done with "lunch" they felt like they had known each other forever. And it was almost time for dinner.

The next few days were just like the first, just them getting to know each other by sharing practically their life stories. By now they were very comfortable around each other.
It was the forth day, right after dinner.
"I want to show you something." Sarah said.
"O-k" Oliver said somewhat confused.
"Come on." She said almost jumping out of her chair and running down the hall.
They came to a room Oliver hadn't seen before because it was on the other side of the house.
"This is my room." Sarah said opening the door.
She went in and turned on the lights.
"You can come in, I don't have cooties." She said with mock offence.
Oliver rolled in slowly, as if not wanting to mess anything up.
Sarah was standing by the door that led to her balcony.
"Come here." She said excitedly.
She stepped through the door as Oliver rolled up behind her.
The balcony had a small table and two chairs, A few potted flowers and a small fountain. It looked like a continuation of her garden.
She was leaning on the railing. Oliver rolled up next to her and stood up, using the railing for support. He tried to look at what she was looking at, but there was nothing there.
"What -exactly- am I looking at?" Oliver asked, trying not to sound too dumb.
"Watch." Sarah said as she turned and walked back toward her room. She reached around the corner of the door and pressed a button. At that moment the once sea of blackness lit up. Apparently the garden had small strands of lights running through it, because Oliver could see the whole garden now. It was majestic.
"See." Sarah said softly as she came and stood right next to Oliver.
"It's amazing." He said plainly.
He looked over at her. The lights from the garden lit up her face and made her look like an angel.
"What?" She said self- concisely, realizing that he was staring at her.
"It's just," He paused looking deep into her eyes, "you're so beautiful."
