The Backyard

-laughs at the direction the conversation went-

I will never understand the minds of people and how they get these ideas. It is one thing that will always surprise me.

-looks around-

If you all decide to do the insanity, be sure to count me in.

-smiles and stomach growls-

I think I shall head inside to feed my stomach.

-walks inside to the kitchen-

*plops down in the snow*
*looks up at Kale and smiles*
*plays with his fingers*

*chuckles*
*sits down next to her*
*kisses*
The snow is comfortable.

*smile widens*
It is.
*kisses back*

*smiles*
So, what to do now?
*leans back to lay down in snow*

*sprinkles snow over his stomach*
Hmmmm.
I dunno.
*kicks ball across the yard*

*laughs*
*stands, going to get the ball*
*kicks it in Daniella's direction*

GAH! D:
*spazzes*
*catches*
*kicks the ball back*

*chuckles*
*kicks it around some*
*lifts it with foot to bounce on knee*

*laughs*
Show-off.

*laughs*
*kicks ball her way again*
*runs over, grabs her, and spins her around*
I love you!

*giggles*
I love you, too.
*kisses*
But you're still a show-off.

{{AVATAR!! O.O lol}}

*laughs*
*kisses back*
I think we should go inside and dry off

(Wha? O.o *senile*)

*smiles*
Probably.
*brushes snow off his shirt and shoulders*

{{It just came on TV. I got excited. XD }}

*smiles*
*takes hand and leads inside*

{{He's going to their room >.> }}

*hears Stefan approaching and quickly exits into the backyard*

*smiles at Christian*
My family, sometimes... *rolls eyes*
Trust me, you want to avoid the drama as much as possible.

*smiles at Pandora, setting her down in the snow*
*she giggles, trying to crawl around*

I will take your word for it. Drama is unavoidable often because of the people involved in it.

-rolls eyes-
-smiles-

Do you want to play with Pandora, Dante?

-Dante pulls Christians hair-

That is a yes for me.

-sets Dante down next to Pandora-

*laughs*
*watches them*
*hugs self*
I haven't felt cold in a while. I wonder if it's because I've been staying inside so much, though. Or it's just colder than normal, today.

This snow is never ending, isn't it? The joys of Norway, eh?
*laughs*

The snow is never-ending. Being a Norwegian myself, I have become quite used to it.

-notices Rizzo shivering-

Are you cold?

-keeps an eye on the children-

*smiles*
Just a bit. You'd think I'd be used to it too, but no such luck.
I miss the green and warmth of Ireland sometimes...
*wipes some hair from face*

-thinks-
Should I?
You have to take some chances in life.

-puts arm around Rizzo to warm her up-

Do you ever plan up going back to Ireland?

-smiles down at Rizzo-

*smiles*
*blushes*
*thinks* I like this. I like his touch.
*leans into him slightly*

I'm hoping to return someday, at least to visit. I could never really leave my family for too long.
But if we have to move back, it would be nice, but that day may be years from now.
We've just gotten settled here, though.

-tightens grip slightly-

I am sure Pandora will be curious about where her mother came from as she grows up and wiser. Ireland is probably a gorgeous place.

-thinks-
Considering you did come from there.

You still have family living there?

*shakes head*
No, we didn't leave anyone behind.
And all my human family is still back in the US.

My only connections now are Jumpy and the rest. I'm happy with them.
*smiles*
*hesitates*
*thinks* No, I shouldn't. I don't want to scare him.

*looks up at him, smiling*

Oh! I misunderstood. My apologies. I completely misplaced you are from the United States and the family used to live in Ireland.

-shakes head in stupidity-
-smiles down-
