The Scarlet Cloak

It was just a scarlet cloak to everyone around them, but no one noticed the hidden intertwined hands, the letters passed, the concealed winks, and the way her hazel eyes lit up under the hood when she saw him. The scarlet cloak was the curtain that sealed them away from peering eyes. But it was just a scarlet cloak and even the toughest fabric can tear at the seams.
