A machine where your heart once was
Slowly takes the place of you
Slowly takes the place of you
Liam had never been very good at navigating this type of situation, and he grasped onto Flora's suggestions like they were a lifeline. "Great," he said, catching their server's eye. Once their orders were placed, Liam handed over his menu and waited for the woman to sashay away before turning his attention back to Flora. He'd been the one to ask her here; so he supposed that meant that he should just dive right in.
"Look, Flora - thanks for meeting me," he said, rubbing the back of his neck uncomfortably. "I... felt like I owed you an apology. And maybe an explanation. A better one than you got on the beach, anyway." He shifted in his chair. "I was... flustered, and it got the better of me." He paused, giving her the option to turn him down. She could, after all, refuse to hear any more about it and leave right now, and he wouldn't blame her.

Only hold the memories now
Of a love I thought I knew
Of a love I thought I knew
Liam
