Night, on a bench in a piazza

So, Sabrina, here we are again stuck without any idea of anything to do.  Are you sure you don't want to go clubbing?

Sheesh.  She just wants to do cultural things!  It's nighttime.  Almost a waste, Sabrina's pretty cute!

Ice cream?  You mean gelatti?  Sure, let's get some.  

We can sit here and eat ice cream.  Well, you know that wouldn't be so terrible.  She is sweet, and I've never really spent all that much time talking to her.

Yeah, Rob and Leigh are pretty far gone.  It's funny.

We've already shared some of our respective angst.  I feel really bad that Sabrina felt boxed in by Leigh's being so obsessive, even if apparently it wasn't explicit in any way.  Well, that's what she said anyways.

But Sabrina didn't deserve that; I'm a guy so it doesn't matter as much to me that Rob was like that.

Well, let's go find some of that...

What's that look for?  I thought she wanted to go...  Oh.... She's reaching for my hand.  It's funny... I trust her, and wait, that's OK.  It's OK.   I kind of want to hold her hand too. She's smiling at me.
Hey, what do you know.... 

Sometimes the craziest things happen when you least expect them
