He would shrug slightly when she said that she wasn’t sure if he would want to come, “Of course I do. I want to see you happy, and I want to make you happy. And I do want to get along with your siblings,” he would say with a soft smile. He felt almost as if he should be kicking himself, though; she would have been fine with him just hating her brother for the rest of his life and she probably wouldn’t even have questioned it. But then he told himself that she wouldn’t have been happy with that, and he immediately felt guilt for regretting his offer. When she scooting into his lap and kissed him he would smile, gently wrapping his arms around her, “You’re very welcome,” he would murmur softly, shifting to gently press a kiss to her cheek, “No, I don’t. I have every right to be upset with him, but not to hate him,” he would say, only to let it drop as she suggested them getting out of the water, “Might be a good idea,” he would say with a laugh before gently pushing her to her feet so that he could stand himself. Once he was standing he would gently grab her hand and move from the water, leading her back to where he dropped his shirt. He would pick it up and move to try to dry her off with it, and once she was mostly dry he would let her go, “There…now you won’t be soggy and uncomfortable in your clothes,” he would say with a laugh.

She smiled at his comment about wanting to see her happy and make her happy. "I know you do, but I also want to make you happy," she said softly. Though she was happy that he was saying he wanted to get along with her siblings, even if he didn't really mean it. When he said he had every right to be upset with Al, but not to hate him she just shake her head, letting the subject drop as he pushed her up to her feet. She giggled when he used his shirt to dry her off once they were out of the water. "Well, thank you, but I was planning to just strip my underclothes and redress in my shirt and kilt," she said with a giggle before she turned her back to him to do just that. Not that he hadn't seen her naked or anything. And it wasn't even that she was embarrassed by the prospect of him seeing her naked out here. It was that she wasn't sure what his reaction might be to seeing her naked. So she made quick work of slipping out of her wet under clothes and donning her dry shirt and kilt. When she was done she turned around to face him and smiled. "Now what?" |

He couldn’t help but laugh when she commented on what she was going to do, “Oh well,” he would say with a shrug, only to watch as he turned around to do exactly what she had said she was going to do. He would blink, staring as she did exactly that. When she was finally dressed and she turned back around with a question as to what they would do now he would laugh, “Uhm. Bed, now. And then Sunil,” he would say with a grin, suddenly moving to wrap her in his arms and press a passionate kiss to her lips. Once it was over he would move to quickly throw his clothes on before gathering up the basket and such, moving to grab her hand once he was done, “Let’s go,” he would say with a laugh before leading her back out of the forest and towards the Palace, occasionally casting his gaze towards her as they walked. He was a man, after all, and the novelty of taking his wife to bed wasn’t lost on him. He would ignore the odd looks that were cast towards them by servants, knowing full well that they made an odd pair at the moment; him carrying a basket with his clothes all wet and rumpled dragging her along with him while she actually looked rather decent.

A giggle erupted from her lips at the look on his face when she turned around and the response he gave to her question. She returned his kiss and was about to suggest he change. However, he really didn't give her a chance to, and she found herself practically being dragged through the forest and across the palace grounds. Not that she minded, really. In fact, she found this whole thing rather amusing, especially considering the strange looks that servants kept casting their way. She bit her lip in an attempt to keep a straight face, but when they finally reached his chambers she found herself plucking his clothes and the basket from his hand and practically dragging him to their bedchambers. Once there she closed and locked the door. .... ... ...
Renny snuggled up against Alpin when everything was said and done. She was definitely content to just snuggle with him at the moment. Not that she didn't want to go to Sunil, but that's besides the point. She pressed a soft kiss to his cheek and laid her head against his shoulder for a moment or two. "I suppose this means I should get up now," she mumbled softly, though made no move to do so. "Does it make me a bad person if I say I'm perfectly comfortable and content right where I am," she asked with a soft giggle, but the shook her head as she forced herself to roll away from her husband and swung her legs over the side of the bed. |

He would chuckle softly when she said that she guessed it meant she should get up now, “Mmm…not if you don’t want to,” he would say with a smile, gently squeezing her against his body for a moment. When she asked if it made her a bad person he would shrug, “I don’t know. But if it does then I’m a bad person too,” he would say with a laugh, reaching up to gently brush his fingers over her cheek. When she rolled out of bed he would shake his head slightly, amused by the fact that she could say that she was so comfortable, and then decided to just get up and go about her business. He figured that she was eager to go to Sunil, and wouldn’t say anything about it, instead moving to climb from the bed as well. He would move to the washbasin and clean up a bit before making his way over to one of his chests, digging through his clothes until he could find something light for him to wear; trousers and a light shirt, definitely nothing that would seem noble-ish. Once he was dressed he would turn to glance at Renny, suddenly amused, “We were supposed to bring your things in here after the picnic,” he would laugh with a shake of his head, “Oh well, it can wait until we get back.”

She'd laughed at his response and had gone over to the wash basin to get cleaned up a bit after rolling out of the bed. When he mentioned that they were supposed to have brought her things to his room after the picnic she frowned. Because it meant that she was about to go to Sunil with nothing but a shirt and kilt on. Um. That might not be the best idea. Then again..she glanced over towards her husband and flashed him a grin. "Oh well. Guess I'll just have to go without under garments," she said with a wink as she pulled the kilt and shirt back on. She shook her head and walked over to stand on her tip toes and press a kiss to his cheek. "Actually, we'd probably better stop by my old chambers on the way out. I need boots for the ride," she said with a frown as she hooked her arm through his and basically dragged him out of their chambers. She wasn't about to let him go back on his word with the whole going to Sunil thing. She was going to see her brother one way or another. Whether he went with her was entirely up to him, but she knew that he wouldn't let her go alone unless she forced him to.
She pulled him along to her old chambers and entered to grab a pair of riding boots and some under garments while she was at it. When she was finally finished she rejoined her husband and linked her fingers with his. "Are we ready?" |

Upon hearing her say that she would have to go without undergarments he would stare at her for a moment before laughing, “Well, that definitely makes things easier,” he would grin, winking playfully at her. Though when she walked over to press a kiss to his cheek before saying that they needed to go to her old chambers he would laugh, though he figured that they would have gone no matter what she might have joked about, “Alright,” he would say, though before he could move she was dragging him through the palace. She left him at her door and he would shake his head, closing his eyes for a moment as he tried to refrain from laughing. As he waited he would lean against the wall, letting his heel thump occasionally against the stone behind him until his wife reappeared and grabbed his hand. When she asked if they were ready he would nod, grinning, “Of course,” he would say before gently squeezing her hand in his own and moving to walk down the hall, making their way out of the palace. Once they were outside once again he would glance around for a brief moment before moving towards the stables, asking a stable boy to ready their horses.

She shook her head at her husband's joking. "Hah. More likely it will teach me that I need to be sneakier," she teased him right back. And then when he actually pulled her brother in for a hug her eyebrows shot up in surprise. However, she wasn't about to say anything about it. Instead she beamed up at her husband and waved a final farewell to her brother before turning and walking alongside her husband back to the stables. When their horses were finally saddled she mounted her horse and waited for him to mount his. Once that was accomplished she turned her horse towards the gates of the estate and spurred the mare into a trot. They rode most of the way back to the palace in silence, and when they finally dismounted she handed her horse off to the closest stable boy. Waited for her husband to dismount, and then grabbed him by the arm to drag him inside. She was ready to just snuggle up to him for a while, and wasn't about to let much get in the way of that. However, on the way to their shared chambers she stopped and had a servant arrange for her things to be moved from her old chambers to the ones that she would now share with her husband. Once they finally made it to their shared chambers she would end up sitting on the couch and removing her riding boots before curling up into the corner of it and smiling at her husband. "Thank you, again, for letting me visit my brother and for coming with me." |

He would laugh when he was immediately grabbed by the arm after having dismounted, his wife dragging him into the palace. He figured that she must be tired or something and wanted to go back to their rooms and cuddle. He couldn’t really blame her, as he wanted to do the same. When she stopped a servant to arrange for her things to be brought to their chambers he would absolutely beam, hugging his wife tightly after she was finished speaking with the servant. She had no idea how happy he was about it, “Thank you,” he would murmur, shifting to gently kiss her lips. When they finally got to their chambers he would watch as she sat on the couch and removed her boots, smiling softly, “Comfortable?” he would ask when she curled up at one side of it before thanking him. He would shake his head slightly, “There’s no need to thank me,” he would assure her before moving to sprawl out on the couch beside her, stretching his legs out and laying his head on her lap, hoping that she might mess with his hair or something. “So, how soon were you thinking about going to Carnaghan?” he would ask curiously, wanting to know what she had decided.

When he had thanked her for having a servant bring her things to their chambers she just shook her head and returned his kiss. There was no reason for him to thank her, but she wasn't going to argue with him. When he settled on the couch and put his head in her lap she smiled down at him and automatically sank one of her hands into his hair to play with it a bit. And this was a big part of why she didn't want him to cut his hair. She enjoyed being able to mess with it. It was oddly relaxing to her. When he questioned her about Carnaghan she laughed softly. "I was thinking within a week or so, if that's not too soon for you," she said with a smile. "It will give me enough time to make sure all my loose ends are tied up here. It will also give me enough time to make sure I have everything that I need," she said. "I know it doesn't seem like much time, but I want to be there with you. The queen is the only thing I will miss about being here, and I feel like there's just so much more to look forward to." |

When she began to play with his hair he would let out a content sigh, closing his eyes for a brief moment as he revels in the sensation. He absolutely loved it; it was such a comforting gesture. When she answered his question he would shrug slightly, “Whenever you want to leave that’s fine with me,” he would say with a grin, “Though, I am happy that you’re eager to go, now,” he would say, reaching up to gently brush his fingers over her cheek. “I don’t know why you think I wouldn’t want to go as soon as you say,” he would laugh, “Tomorrow wouldn’t even be too soon,” he would joke. “I know that you’ll miss the Queen, but you can visit as often as you would like,” he would assure her, though he kind of felt bad. Things were working out in such a way that he almost felt as if she might just be agreeing to go to Carnaghan sooner because she knew that he wanted to. “But…are you sure that you want to leave so soon?” he would ask, feeling like kicking himself afterwards. He knew that he wouldn’t be able to live with himself if he didn’t do his best at making her happy, so he felt bad about regretting asking her if she was sure.

She smiled at his content sigh and leaned down to press a tender kiss to his lips. She absolutely adored this man, and couldn't help the laughter when he responded to her words about Carnaghan. "I know I can visit her, and that's the only reason I'm willing to leave," she teased gently. "Seriously, though. Of course I'm sure. If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't be suggesting it," she assured him gently as she ruffled his hair lightly. "And, yes, part of it is about making you happy, but not all of it. I want to go to Carnaghan because it's going to be home now. I know it's already home for you, but I want to be able to start our life together, and it just doesn't feel the same when we're staying in borrowed rooms here," she admitted with a shrug. "I want all of our life together, not just bits and pieces of it," she said as she leaned down to press a kiss to his forehead. She continued to play with his hair and smiled down at him. "I absolutely adore you, and I think we'll both be significantly happier at Carnaghan than here at the palace." |
