[ circles around to face her boys when they get inside of the park, taking out her handy dandy map to look over it. doesn't take too long in deciding what to do first; hands go on her hips, giving them a look as if she's leading an army going to war, though the smile on her face adds something more pleasant onto the double-meaning. ]

So I was thinking that we should split up first and meet up for lunch later. It's pretty crowded today. Going in twos is the best option, since we don't want to lose any short people.

[ watches them go, then takes a few steps to the right to get into a semi-shade underneath a tree. ]

[ also watches them wander off, content in leaving her eyes on the sight for now. shifts a bit so she's half-way under the tree as well, hands circling to link with one another behind her back. ]

[ is still watching with a thoughtful expression, gaze remaining until the growing crowd envelops them. turns to brianna then, head tilted slightly with a question. ]

Our destination, princess?

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

[ tilts her head back towards him, giving him silence as a reply for a moment. finally breaks out into a small smile. ]

How about we walk? See what we can find.

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ manages a smile through his haze for her sake, inclining his head once in a nod. puts the map he's been holding onto back into his pockets. ]

Shall we?

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

Mm.

[ begins to stride forward slowly, lazily; is taking her time, just giving an open advancement. ]

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ walks along with her, not overtaking nor lagging behind, seems pretty content where is. once again looking to the crowd for nothing in particular but the laughing families, even though he looks away from time to time. ]

[ her own gaze shifts here and there several times throughout their stroll. keeps her eyes mostly on the attractions and food stands, barely giving the families (children) a passing glance. instead turns her head slightly towards albert after they've been walking in silence for a good five minutes. touches his arm gently, speaking casually. ]

Do you want to go back to the hotel room soon?

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ leans into the touch unconsciously, taking a step closer. ]

Would that please you?

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

[ shakes her head slightly, keeping her hand in place. ]

I'm content anywhere as long as I'm with you.

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ takes that hand in his, just holding on. ]

Then the location does not matter.

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

[ her smile brightens slightly, holding his hand back gently. doesn't say anything more, allowing her eyes to speak to him instead. ]

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ the smile that touches his lips seems to take root as he slowly begins to lead, though still only a step in front of her as they continue walking in their relaxed, languid pace. ]

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

[ continues the comfortable silence for a while, her thoughts drifting elsewhere. her curiosity gets the best of her, however, silently inquiring more than just the words she speaks. ]

Are you enjoying yourself so far?

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ pauses in thought, hand shifting in their shared grip a little, opting for a more comfortable arrangement grip. ]

It hasn't be unpleasant.

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

[ closes her eyes, stepping a bit closer to lean the side of her face on his shoulder, the action light, a promise that it would only last a few seconds at best. ]

I'm glad, then.

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

And yourself?

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

[ chuckles quietly, lifting her head back up again. ]

Mmm about the same, though I have photos.

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

Oh?

[ with her free hand she reaches into her purse, fishing around for the camera. blinks a few times, lips twitching upward further in amusement. ]

Ah, it seems our eldest has taken the camera with him.

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

[ mock-pouts, shifting the purse back on her shoulder. ]

This stinks~ I wanted a photo of us together.

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ chuckles, hand squeezing hers as he leads them along. ]

We will manage, I'm sure.

[prideofbeauty.livejournal.com]

Yes, I suppose we will.

[ follows obediently, not taking her eyes off the unknown path ahead this time. ]

[prideofcontrol.livejournal.com]

[ is simply wandering, enjoying the sights. it isn't long, however, until they come across a small area with a sparse population; gives one glance over at brianna to silently inform her of his intentions -- does not need words for things like this; they never did -- & picks a bench underneath a shade to sit down. ]

[ isn't surprised at their destination, eventually taking a seat next to him quietly. lets out a pleased sigh and leans on him lightly, simply enjoying the closeness for now. ]
