"And you're happy."

He could have sworn those weren't the words he'd meant to say, but there they were. It struck him, in an absurd rush, just how ordinary this situation was: he was having dinner at a regular hour, at a regular restaurant, on what could presumably be called a regular date. Ordinary people must do this sort of thing day in and day out, as naturally as breathing.

It was terrifying. And also fantastic.
