Chapter Fifteen

A walk not to forget

We had been walking for a while and had yet to see another person on the track. We were either the stragglers and would be one of the last to arrive at the convention, or there were just not many people attending. However, thinking about how many cars were parked up at the Blairmore car park I decided that we were indeed the stragglers.

We were now coming up to the first loch we would be passing called Aisir Loch. The sight was breathtaking. I stopped, causing Scott to walk straight into the back of me. I was still leading to escape the pain of looking at the sight of Scott's backside and knowing it was out of bounds for me.

I stood there taking in the angelic view. Scott looked at the expression upon my face and said, “Welcome to Scotland, Letticia.”

The beauty of the Loch made me emotional. I knew at this very moment this was not a dream. This was reality. The loch was so overwhelming, with volumes and volumes of water surrounded by green lush Scottish land. It filled me with feelings of gratitude, happiness, fondness, and warmth. Feelings such as these were hard to come by in a dream.

Lush, love and excitement were the feelings I had while I was dreaming of my time in Scotland with Scott, but these feelings I had now were different, these feelings were even more overpowering. These feelings came from being in the present and taking in what Mother Nature has created.

Scott had seen lochs all his life. If it hadn’t been for me, he would have walked straight on past, but watching my reaction to the first loch we passed made Scott stop and also take in the view and appreciate what he was standing in front of.

“You know what Letticia, Lochs really are a sight to behold. I never really take the time to stop and appreciate them,” Scott said. I looked at him as the sun was slowly starting to set behind him. We still had a fair few more hours until it was fully set but at this very time, it shone upon Scott's head highlighting his natural red streaks.

I replied, “Everyone needs to slow down in this world Scott, and actually look what they have in front of their very own eyes and appreciate what they have.”

Of course, I was meaning me. For Scott to stop and look at me and appreciate what an amazing Sassenach I could be to him. I wasn’t sure if Scott realised what I was saying or if he decided to ignore it, by his reaction and comment that followed.

“Good point Letticia, right shall we continue? After you,” Scott said, signalling for me to lead the way. I decided I wanted some more angelic views of my own so insisted he went in the front.

“No, no after you Scott,” I replied.

“Very well, I shall lead the way for a bit then.”

Scott, oblivious to my intentions, lead us further along the track past two more lochs that were just as charming as the first.
