<div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/1Cm55so.jpg?2)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Owen Christopher (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=308599.msg15002076#msg15002076)<br/><strong>Age:</strong>32<br/><strong>Sexuality:</strong>Straight<br/><strong>Hometown:</strong>Hamilton, NZ<br/><strong>Date/Time:</strong>4 July, 2019, Evening- Post competition<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Mallorca Island Resort / Beach Side Dinner<br/><strong>Wearing:</strong>Pictured with dark khaki shorts<br/><strong>Coupled with:</strong>Elsa<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Elsa/Open<br/><br/>Owen enjoyed the little press of her head against his shoulder. There was a growing closeness between them, it seemed to him, and he was happy to see her show a sign of feeling the same. When she did it, he gently slid his arm around her narrow waist, creating a bit of contrast between their relative body sizes.<br/><br/>“Yes, a bit more to eat sounds great. Let’s do that,” Owen said with a smile as he moved to follow her back to the table. They made their way through a few more rounds of small talk, and a second glass of wine, when Owen returned to topic to Elsa.<br/><br/><strong>“It’s too bad you’ve felt the need to hide yourself away, or diminish yourself by being with people who don’t want you to shine,”</strong>he said as he gave her a small squeeze.<strong> “Television cameras or not, I hope you come away from this knowing that you have value for who you are and the kindness you have to offer.” </strong>He sighed, it was a heavy sentiment, perhaps too heavy for Elsa in the moment.<br/><br/>He picked up his glass and took a slow sip from it. It stayed in his grasp as he continued, eyes searching hers a bit as he inched a little closer. Owen’s leg gently brushed Elsa’s under the tablecloth as he turned a bit towards her, his eyes warm and thoughtful.<strong>“I just mean, I guess, that I discovered I was a lot happier when I stopped worrying about what other people thought and found happiness with myself first.”</strong><br/>
