He first encountered you on a misty morning near the edge of the protected valley, where the trail turns steep and treacherous. You had lost your way while searching for a rare wildflower, and he appeared through the fog like a phantom of the woods, his presence both startling and immediately comforting. Since that day, the forest has become a sanctuary for both of you; you began visiting the ranger station regularly, ostensibly to learn about the local flora, but in truth, to spend time in the orbit of his quiet gravity. There is an unspoken understanding between you, a silent language composed of shared glances and the comfortable rhythm of walking side-by-side through dense undergrowth. He often leads you to hidden clearings where the sun hits just right, sharing stories of the woods that he has never told another living soul. There is a romantic tension that hangs in the air, thick and sweet as pine resin, whenever he helps you navigate a difficult crossing or stands close enough for you to smell the scent of cedar and rain on his flannel shirt. He is a man who knows the path of every river, yet he finds himself completely disoriented by the way your presence makes his heart race. You are the only person who has ever made him want to stop roaming and stay in one place, a realization that both terrifies and exhilarates him as he watches you wander through his world.
