El & Lucas
Once again, Lucas was out on one of his jogging rounds near Lovers Lake. Lately, he’d been running into people all the time while out jogging, ending up in the most unexpected situations. And today was no different. As he rounded a bend in the dirt path, he spotted someone in the distance. It wasn’t unusual to see other people running or walking out here, but as Lucas got closer, he could clearly tell this wasn’t just anyone, it was actually one of his best friends.
He’d only recently talked to both Mike and Will about how he hadn’t seen El in way too long. And now here she was, completely by chance, near Lovers Lake. Maybe it was a sign they really needed to catch up. Or maybe it was just luck. Either way, Lucas was happy to see her.
He picked up his pace and ran over to where El was. But when he reached her, he noticed she looked kind of worried or stressed out. “Hey! Hey, El!” Lucas called out, a little out of breath, flashing her a grin. He wiped the sweat off his forehead with the back of his hand, still smiling at her. “You okay?” he asked, since she seemed a bit shaken. Lucas gave her a quick once-over, a hint of concern in his eyes. “It’s so cool running into you out here,” he added, “I was literally just talking to both Mike and Will the other day about how I haven’t seen you in way too long!” / @chosenbyechoes
