They stood together and Vomyr tried to ignore the growing emotional chasm between them.

He tried to comment on the weather but she seemed uninterested and cast around the grounds as if looking for something, anything that was not him.

The subject changed to archery, minor comments were exchanged but soon the uncomfortable silence resumed.

Vomyr tried to lean upon the fence in the unrestrained manner he had seen displayed by the soldiers but it felt strange and soon he stood back up again and tried to draw the maiden into conversation once more.

Once more she nodded vaguly at all he said and smiled slightly, possibly to herself over some trivial matter but to Vomyr that smile betrayed her true feelings.

She was mocking him.
He exploded.

"Enough of this! In vain have I struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you."
