Martha lived at Pillar House in Boscastle, it was a quaint little cottage about a ten minute walk from Y/N's house or fifteen if you went the scenic route which she usually did but today was different. Y/N opted for the shorter walk, desperately wanting to talk with Martha about her sketch.
Why was she making this such a big deal?
It was only a sketch, why couldn't she stop thinking about it?
Lewis hadn't stopped talking since they left her house, he was going on about the upcoming surfing competition at Fistral beach and how excited he was to take part this year. Usually Y/N would partake actively in their discussion but her mind was consumed with speaking to Martha so much so that when Lewis stopped walking and rolled his eyes she didn't even notice.
"Hey! Earth to Y/N! You're not even listening to me, what's wrong?"
Y/N spun around, brow furrowed.
"Lewis please don't start an argument with me right now, whatever you want to tell me about the surfing competition can wait until after we see Martha. I need to know why it's making me feel so.........."
"Obsessed is the word you're looking for Y/N." Lewis snapped.
"Whoa, where the hell did your attitude come from? What the hell is wrong with you?"
"My problem is you and your ridiculous fantasy! There's no prince Y/N, no knight in shining armour! This is your life, this is reality! Why are you so bothered by some sketch of a guy that doesn't even exist?!"
Y/N watched opened mouthed as Lewis completely lost his cool, she had never seen him this angry before and he was the one who suggested doing this in the first place.
"Lewis calm down, what's wrong? Everything was fine a few minutes ago and now you're yelling at me. You agreed to come with me, why are you getting so frustrated?"
Lewis took a deep breath, he hated arguing with her but she was so completely oblivious that it angered him.
"Stop looking for fairytales Y/N, focus on what you've already got."
Y/N had never been so confused, she truly loved and appreciated everything and everyone in her life so what did he mean?
"Lewis what are you saying? I love my life here, having interest in this sketch doesn't change that."
Lewis was beyond exasperation at this point, it didn't matter what he said because her head would always be up in the clouds. It was one of the many things he loved about her but it was also the one which angered him the most.
"Come to the beach with me, we can get snacks and start a fire. It's just a sketch Y/N, do we really need to do this?"
"Yes."
Her response was immediate, no hesitation and all he could do was sigh.
"Call me when you're done, I'll be at the beach."
Y/N watched, completely confused as to what the hell had just transpired.
He suggested this.
He was perfectly fine up until now so what the hell was that about? Had she missed something?
Lewis was usually a super relaxed person so for him to go off the handle like that was completely out of character, she was tempted to go after him but couldn't leave without speaking to Martha first.
Y/N decided to give him some space, let him cool down and after speaking with Martha she would head down to the beach to talk with him.
Pillar house appeared when she turned the final corner on her walk.
