As the sun began to set, Lily realized she was lost in the forest. Panicked, she frantically scanned her surroundings, but everything looked the same. Suddenly, a figure emerged from the trees. It was Alex, a friend she had met at a campsite earlier that day. They had separated to go for a walk, but she never expected to be seen in this state. With embarrassment, Lily tried to hide her body, but Alex's calm demeanor put her at ease. He led her to a nearby stream, where they sat together in comfortable silence. As they watched the stars begin to twinkle, Lily felt a sense of security she hadn't experienced before. Despite her initial discomfort, she was grateful to have Alex by her side, and the forest seemed less intimidating with him there to guide her through the darkness.
