He wandered around the part of the estate that was behind the main building. As he did so he hummed a soft tune to himself and debated what it was that he wanted to do. He felt that he'd given Lady Aislin a proper apology for kissing her without her permission, so he wasn't even thinking about that as he wandered around the estate. For a while he was lost in thought, mindlessly humming the tune that he wasn't even really listening to. However, shortly after arriving outside he heard the sound of Lady Aislin's voice addressing him and he turned to her with a grin. "Ah, the fair Lady has joined us in the world of the living instead of keeping herself locked in her bedroom," he teased light-heartedly. He didn't want her to be mad at him again, but he was the type that enjoyed joking around more than most anything else. "So, tell me lady. Have you come to yell at me despite my apology? Or maybe you came seeking another kiss now that the last one sank in," he said, clearly teasing her again as he grinned and winked. "Sorry, you'll find that I enjoy light-hearted banter. It makes life easier, I think," he said with a softer smile. "Did you need something, Lady," he asked with a tilt of his head to one side.

She would walk up to him as he teased her. Agreed, running and hiding like that was a bit childish and she was passed being a child.. Well, for the most part. Once she had gotten close enough to him, she couldn't help but to take one of his hands between the two of her own and just held it gently between her grasps. Admiring the strength it held with in it. Though she felt strength, she also felt kind and gentleness. She couldn't help but to smile a bit as he spoke with such banter in his tone. She would give him a shake of her head to answer his questions gently. "What you did Mi`Lord.. Had surprised me... I've never had anyone kissed me before it was rather strange." She told him at first before letting her hands release his gently and allowing it to slide back to their proper place at his side. She would take a step back and look up at him with a quiet smile, pondering her next attack. Wondering if she should be so bold as to return the kiss that he had given or just be simple and walk with him. She would think about it a little while and figured if all went to worse, she'd be cast away for such boldness. Or at least, ignored for a while which would eventually kill her. And finally she went to hell with it and jumped up into his arms as her hands wrapped around his neck gently letting her lips meet with his again. Apparently she wanted another kiss.

He chuckled when she explained her reaction. "Lady, you don't have to explain yourself to me, I was in the wrong, and I'm not above admitting it," he said gently. Though he did have to admit that he liked the fact that she didn't seem to be so repulsed by him that touching him was something that she wouldn't do. He couldn't help a bit of a smirk at that; her holding one of his large hands between both of her much smaller ones. When she released his hand he figured that was that, and started to turn to go back to what he had been doing before she'd come along. Not that he'd actually been doing anything. However, when she jumped at him and curled her arms around his neck, pressing her lips against his again his brows shot up in surprise. His surprise didn't last too long, though, because hell..he's a man. And what man wouldn't kiss a pretty lady like her back when they jumped at him? He caught her against him, lifting her up so that her legs were forced to wrap around his waist. He kissed her back, but this kiss was a much longer and heavier kiss. He held it as long as he could, and when he pulled back his breathing was a bit ragged. Gods he hadn't kissed a woman like that since his late wife had died.
Not saying that he hadn't been with his share of women since her death, but they'd all been a casual thing and he definitely hadn't kissed them the way he'd just kissed her. A groan built up in his chest, but he didn't want to confuse the poor girl even more. Instead he gently placed her back on her feet and flashed a grin. (Very similar to the one in the avatar picture.) "Oh. So you did come back for another kiss," he teased gently, though he stepped forward and gently placed one hand on either side of her face. He dipped his head and pressed another, much softer and shorter, kiss to her lips.

Surely the two of them must've had every man and women outside watching them do this kissing thing. Granted the servants only expected it, this she knew and she wasn't sure if the Knights would like a child kissing their Commander, but she didn't care at that moment. She was lost with words and emotions that even her head was silent. She was a young woman after all, experiencing the first of many kisses that would come her way. And not to mention something much more then just kisses were to follow. This she was sure off, but she wouldn't let it come to that so quickly. Her legs would wrap themselves around his waist as her arms wrapped around his neck. When he pulled back she took a deep breath and licked her lips, panting a bit as she starred into his eyes. Her heart felt like it was going to beat right out of her chest and slap in the face, but she kept her cool.
When he had finally placed her down on her feet, and she felt the grass between her toes, she couldn't help but to look down and blush, her teeth biting her bottom lip gently. Once she had opened her eyes up again, she glanced up at him just to see his smile and couldn't help but to smile back at him. Something about him just seemed to overpower her and she was completely at a lost of what to think, say or do. "Don't go making it a habit now Mi'Lord. I won't be allowing you to visit my chambers just yet." She told him quietly so the men wouldn't hear her words. Not that he didn't keep anything secret from them anyway. She would have to keep her cool from here on out now. And make sure not to let him distract her. Much like this kiss that he had planted on her lips. It was softer, gentler then the last rougher they had shared. Within his embrace, she allowed him to kiss her again. As her hands made their way up his chest holding his shoulders gently this time.

He couldn't help but laugh at her retort about not letting him into her bedchambers just yet. "Don't worry, Lady Aislin," he said softly to her. "I have enough sense and decency to know better than to just assume that a kiss will lead to more," he assured her gently. "Not that I would mind more. I am a man after all," he flashed that same grin. "But, you are a lady and deserve to be treated as such. No matter how much any man may want it; even if that man were me, I expect you to refuse him until he not only agrees to marry you, but actually carries out that agreement," he told her gently but firmly. "Not that I think of you as the type of woman that wouldn't refuse a man. I'm just telling you that I know what to expect from a lady such as yourself," he assured her.
When her hands gripped his shoulders with the second kiss he couldn't help but smile. He lifted his head shortly after pressing his lips to hers the second time. He slowly let his hands drop back to his sides when the kiss was done. "You have nothing to fear from me. I'm not the type to kiss and tell, nor am I the type to kiss a woman and just drop her," he assured her. "Unless you want nothing more to do with me, that is," he teased softly.

She smiled at his assuring words. She felt that they were true and that he wouldn't force her to do anything that she didn't want to do. But now that she had, shown her feelings to him, she was certain that something was going to happen. She had a gut feeling that it wasn't going to be pleasant either. Lady Aislin wasn't a child anymore, and now that the man had kissed her, she was half expecting any member of the estate would want to do the same. She would let the idea slip off her shoulders and sink away into the darker corners of her mind. She figured that he would come to her rescue should it come to that.. Right? Surely. She would take his hand gently between hers once again and kissed the top of his palm sweetly. Hinting a bit of tease as she looked up at him.
"Sire, you do not have to worry about me. I do not see myself allowing just any man to get me. You see, they have to have certain qualities to show me that they can win and keep not only my heart, but my mind and soul. They will have to try to earn it at most." She told him, and some of that was hinted at him even though she meant it literally to any man that would come into her life. Even if he was the one to open up the doors for her. "Besides, I fear I might be a bit to immature for just any one man who will find me attractive." She told him honestly. She sighed and turned to face him when he spoke of her not wanting anything to do with him, when really, she felt the opposite about the entire ordeal.
"I do not think that is what you have to worry about Sire." She told him truthfully before taking his hand between hers once again, clasping it gently between her fingers. She was scared actually. Of what the next few days, weeks or months might hold for her. Especially with his late wife's sister coming to live them. She couldn't help but feel just a tad bit jealous now at the slightest idea of her moving in. Did she look like her? Share her same antics, beliefs? If so, would he much rather be with her then she? All the crazy ideas started forming in her head after one little kiss! Okay, after a few little kisses but that wasn't the point. The point was, that she felt something with each of those kisses and she had no idea if he did as well. She quickly pulled her hand away from his and shook her head, removing any thoughts of the matter. "We should walk." She said suddenly, trying to keep her mind busy from doing to much thinking.. Again, it was a habit.

He chuckled softly at her words and nodded his head. "Well, then, it's good to know that you can handle yourself," he teased gently. "Well then. It's good to know what I'll have to do," he teased with a grin. He nodded when she said they should walk and turned to do just that, keeping his stride casual so that she would be able to keep up with him. "Ah, I don't think you're immature," he added as an after thought. "Just because you enjoy having a little bit of fun every now and again doesn't make you immature," he said with a smile. "I can tell by the condition of the estate that you're not so immature that you can't handle running an entire duchy by yourself," he explained. Then, as if he could read her mind. "My sister-in-law is just that; my sister. So you don't have to worry about fighting another woman for my attention," he teased with a wink. He didn't really think that she would like him, but he was definitely getting to the point that he could see himself liking her. She made him feel young again, and after years of feeling about twice his age, it was refreshing to feel young again. Not to mention the fact that, despite her innocence, her kisses had burned with a certain passion. And if there was one thing he liked in a woman it was passion.

Her eyes would watch his as they walked, blinking a bit to his words when he spoke about knowing what he had to do. Just means she would have to make it a bit harder on him is all. So he was a mind reader... Lovely. She didn't need him to know all of her fears while he was around her. She blushed and glanced towards the ground as he did all of those silly winks and expressions towards her. It was cute though and he was a handsome man,as well. Even if he was twice her age.
She definitely was beginning to form some sort of crush on the man who now lived with her. And it may have had to deal with each of the kisses they had shared recently or it could be because he had been the first man she has ever made such contact with that it had gotten her attention. Whichever the reason, she wasn't going to let any women get a hold of him him. Young or old, she had a target and she wasn't going to let it out of her sight. She had kept up with him easily and without stress.
"Well I am glad that you don't find me immature Sire. However, you are just one man who has a connection with a girl twice your age. Surely there are others who have caught your eye and probably even still, those who'd want to keep you at their beds." She told him knowingly. She has heard the women of the court speaking to one another about bedding men both young and old for the wealth they had. For their looks. None of them spoke about love itself. She wasn't upset or anything, she was simply stating the truth, which was something she did often. Even more, she didn't want to hurt him with her outburst and so decided to bite her tongue on the subject.
"Forgive me. I just.." She stopped and turned to stand in front of him to speak her mind. "I just feel that you'd want to be with someone who has had the experiences that you'd have. Not some, mind babbling child, who probably wouldn't know what to do when the time came to such matters." She was flustered with it all and was probably jumping to conclusions but it was how she felt.

He tossed his head back in laughter when she spoke and couldn't help but sling one of his arms around her shoulders and tug her against his side in a quick hug. "My lady, I think you seriously underestimate your charms," he said with a chuckle. "I happen to find you both beautiful and compelling. And yes, you might be younger than me, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. I've spent the last several years feeling twice my age since my late wife, and I will tell you now that it's an amazing feeling to be able to be young again," he said with that charming grin of his. He pressed a kiss against the top of her head. "You have nothing to worry about as far as me sharing the bed of another woman goes if you would like for me to court you, Lady Aislin. Because I will tell you now that I don't merely court a woman with the intention of it not going anywhere. If I court you then I will do it with the intention of the courtship eventually leading to marriage when we are both comfortable with the idea," he said in a serious tone. "If, however, you do not wish for me to court you, then you have no say in who I share a bed with," he teased gently.

Aislin would blink at words. Did he really just say that? After... The kiss? Of course there had to be nothing to worry about, it was just a kiss after all but it felt more than that to her. But maybe she was just senile and gone all crazy between the events. Yes that's it. The first man to come into her life that wasn't a man of the estate, kissed her and now she was pretty much in the process of marriage.. Right. Not crazy at all. She would shake her head towards the man and take his arm off of her and turned to face him. "You kiss me and then ask me to Court you. After all of that talk.." She couldn't comprehend it all.. It was all just scrambling in her head. She was confused as she turned to look off at the ground next to her. She was trying to think. She turned to face him, and cupped her hands together and looked up at him.
"...Sire, I think it would be hard for me to see you with another women after that... Kiss. I don't know how it would all be played out, but..." She walked up to him and folded her hands together. She nodded assuring. She was scared even though she had no reason to be, according to him. She was. "I want to be your Court." She told him assuring.

He flashed a grin at her when she went all confused on him. "Lady; you will learn in time that some kisses don't have a point to them. Some do, but a lot of the time they don't. I'm not saying that I don't like you or anything like that, but sometimes people kiss someone just because they want to. Not all kisses are because someone is actually interested in another person," he frowned. "I am interested in what I have seen of you, but I also have no qualms about keeping my distance should that be what you want," he explained gently. He hadn't meant to upset the poor girl, but she seemed so completely baffled by the fact that he could just walk away after kissing her and tell her she had no say in who he shared a bed with if she didn't want him to court her. His expression changed however when she faced him and told him that she would allow him to court her. "That's the spirit, lass," he teased gently and pulled her in for a warm hug. "You'll see. I promise that courting me won't be as bad as you might think it will be," he said with a laugh. He actually had a tendency to be very thoughtful of the person that he was courting.

She would smile lightly as he explained about some kisses not meaning anything special or specific. This confused her greatly but that was because she had never been in such a serious relationship with another person. The closes thing she did have with such intimacy was with her Caretakers. Hugs and cuddles for when she was sad or hurt. Almost like a mother would but she knew they weren't her mother. She would welcome the gentle embrace and couldn't help but to close her eyes. This man... This man, made her head fogged up like she couldn't think of anything. Not to mention her stomach felt like it was twisting in nots. Like butterflies were trying to escape her. She wouldn't let this change her though. She would glance up at him after letting her head rest on his chest and smiled softly, letting one of her hands touch his cheek gently. "I will try my best to care for you, Sire." She told him assuring. Maybe she should go to some of her servants for advice. She just hoped it would be good enough for him. After all she had no idea to love or care for a man. Well besides the ones who needed assistance with wounds even if they were horribly stubborn. She pulled her hand down from his face and folded them over her stomach before continuing to walk.

He smiled when she cupped his cheek and said she would try her best to care for him. "It will all come in time," he assured her gently as she forced him to continue their walk. "It may seem strange now, but I promise that you'll learn as you go. And I'll be here to help should you need or want it." He kept pace with her easily as they walked along and he found his gaze roaming over the estate. He stopped in their walk when he spotted a cluster of different colored wild flowers and walked over to them. He plucked a few of each color before he returned to her and tucked a bright blue flower behind her right ear and handed the rest of them to her. "I don't know how you feel about flowers, but these are for you," he said, flashing a smile. Wild flowers were just the start of how he would dote on her. "If you have a favorite flower and will let me know it, I will make sure to get them for you regularly," he added as an off-hand comment. It was something that he'd done for his deceased wife. She'd absolutely adored flowers of all kinds and since he'd tended to wake for the day before her, he almost always had a small bouquet of wild flowers waiting for her when she woke up in the mornings. It had just been a small testament of his affection for her, but it had always seemed to put her in a good mood.

She nodded to his words assured that all will come in due time. The girl was a lover for all things nature. Animals; to the tiniest of seeds. She did, however, have a special soft spot for flowers. Though, which girl wouldn't? She couldn't help but to start swaying side to side gently as she walked with the man, her hands hung down at her sides as she swayed so it kind of looked like the wind was pushing against her balance. The slight summer breeze brushed against her red hair which reveled the one freckle on her shoulder blade.
The freckle wasn't light by any means, and easily seen from anyone's naked eye if they had the chance to look that way. Her dress that she wore didn't cover it up since it had laced up in the back, revealing most of her naturally fair skin. The dress itself was a little bit too long and dragged a little ways in the back as she walked but she paid no mind to it. When she had figured out that she was the only walking, she stopped and turned around only too see him standing in front of her with a bouquet of flowers in his hands.
She couldn't help but to smile some and take the gesture between her hands to smell them. Just as she did so, he would be placing the blue one behind her ear causing her cheeks to become a rosy-pink color. Using a free hand, she would pull a bit of her hair behind her other ear and slowly drop her hand back to where she could hold the flowers. Her eye's meeting up with his as he spoke about getting the flowers regularly for her. It was a sweet gesture for sure. But he would still have work his way into the young girls heart.
"Thank you." She spoke as she held the flowers. "They're lovely." She added and glanced ahead to the trail of their walk. She'd go quiet for a moment trying to decide which flowers she loved most and when she thought of a few, she glanced up with a smile. "Flax, Burren, Crane's Bill, and Orange Roses" Happen to be my favorite flowers. However, I am simple towns-girl so just about anything will make me happy." She told him assuring. Then again, he was the only one who ever cared to ask her such questions.

He smiled at her reaction to the flowers. "You're welcome," he said sincerely. When she went on to list a bunch of different types of flowers that she liked he let out a laugh. However she continued to speak and he wouldn't interrupt her. When she said any type of flower would do he would nod. "Good to know," he said with a chuckle. He watched as the sun started to dip below the horizon and decided that it was probably a good idea to go somewhere and get some sleep. "Well, Lady Aislin. I've had a long ride here, and could do with some relaxation and sleep before the morning comes. I think the rest of my people should be here sometime tomorrow," he said as he flashed her a smile. He grabbed one of her hands and brought it up to press a kiss to the back of it before sweeping her a bow. "Good night, Lady," he said before he turned around and headed back to the main building of the estate. He entered through the back door, and continued up the stairs to where one of the empty sets of chambers were located. He opened the door, decided that it would do, and ordered a servant to have a bath sent up for him before he crashed for the night. It would be good to get all the grime from traveling off of him for a change.
