ADVENTURE RP! NEW MEMBER WELLCOME!

Alex hugged Lisianthus and chuckled, replying, "You are right, darling. Now let's get going into town, ok? I want to take you to one of my favorite dessert shops. They serve some of the best chocolate ever."

******************************

Bryan replied, "Ahh yup, we sure are. Now this time, I won't forget to give them the tickets. After all, I want them to come see us on opening night and all."

He escorted Rosaline and once they were in front of Rosalind's and Greg's house, Bryan asked, "Should we knock or just enter?"

Lisianthus replied, "Yays! Let us go then!"

*****************************************

Rosaline replied, "Uhh why should we knock?"

Alex nodded happily and held Lisianthus' arm, escorting her into town. He pointed out some of the beautiful sights while the two walked together.

"I'm happy that it's such a beautiful day outside."

******************************

Bryan scratched the back of his head and replied, "Ahh I don't know. I didn't want to be rude or anything."

Lisianthus replied, "Yup, yup, same here. It's a pretty day."

*********************************

Rosaline replied, "Meh, knock if you want."

Alex looked on at Lisianthus and replied, "And I'm so happy to be spending the day with you, darling."

He looked on and noticed that they were within a couple of minutes into town. He pointed ahead and said, "Ahh we're almost there now, darling."

*************************************

Bryan looked at Rosaline's expression and chuckled. "You know, you look beautiful no matter what. Let's go in and say hi to the others."

He opened the door quietly and allowed Rosaline to enter first.

Lisianthus looked on ahead and saw the town. It looked a pretty place with lots of activity going around.

"Wow, this place looks beautiful. A lot like Cephiron!"

**********************************************

Rosaline rolled her eyes on Bryan's comment and then entered the house, waiting for him to follow.

Alex looked over at Lisianthus curiously and replied, "Oh? Cephiron? Is that city where you're from?"

*********************************

Bryan chuckled quietly and followed Rosaline into the house. After entering, he quietly closed the door behind him.

"Hmm I wonder where the others are. Maybe we should check in the living room."

Lisianthus nodded and replied, "Yup, yup. It's a beautiful city although the castle is not there, a bit far."

*********************************

Rosaline replied, "They are probably there or in the dinner room having dinner."

Alex replied, "Ahh I see. I'm curious to see Cephiron sometime. I've never been to the gods world and it would be interesting to see how similar or perhaps different it is from the human world."

He paused for a moment and then continued. "So what would you like to see first? We could drop by the clothing area and see about buying you some beautiful dresses. Or we could go to the chocolate shop that I love here. You name what you'd like to do."

**************************************

Bryan nodded and replied, "Ahh all right. Let's go check the living room first and see if the others are there."

He led the way to the living room.

It didn't take Lisianthus to think for long. Immediately, she replied, "The chocolate shop, of course! I value chocolate more than clothes, although that does sound silly."

Alex chuckled and then replied, "Nah, it doesn't sound silly to me at all. I love chocolate as well. I've never met anyone who loves chocolate as much as I do. So let me lead the way to the chocolate shop."

Alex held Lisianthus' arm and escorted her a few blocks into town. After a couple minutes of walking, he stopped in front of a small but pretty chocolate shop. The building was painted light blue and had a huge sign saying "Lily's Chocolates and Sweets." Alex pointed to it and said, "Here it is. Let's go in. Hopefully, it isn't too crowded today."

Lisianthus looked at the shop and said, "Oooh looks pretty. I wonder if their chocolate is as pretty as their shop sign."

Alex replied, "Let's go in and I'll let you be the judge."

He escorted Lisianthus inside the shop. Once inside, one could see the walls which were painted a light blue and there were displays of delicious beautiful chocolates. There were many kinds of chocolates ranging from milk to white to dark chocolate. There were chocolate cakes as well as chocolate ice cream. There were a few tables for customers to sit down.

Behind the counter, there was a young woman looking after the store. As soon as Alex and Lisianthus entered, she walked up to greet them.

She said, "Hello, welcome to my shop. Is there anything I can do for you today?"

Alex replied, "Ahh we'd like to sample some of your very best chocolates."

The lady nodded and replied, "Ahh ok. Please have a seat and I'll bring a menu for you both."

Alex led Lisianthus to a table and seated her and then himself.

***************************************

Once in the living room, Bryan saw Rosalind, Greg, Patriaclos, and Andra all seated, looking like they were deep i discussion. Bryan announced, "Hi everyone. Rosaline and I are back now."

Rosalind turned to Bryan and Rosaline and smiled at them. She said, "Welcome back, you two. Did you have fun outside?"

Alex turned to Lisianthus and asked, "What do you think about this place? It's small but it sure is lovely, isn't it?"

************************************

Bryan nodded happily and replied, "Yup, we sure did. Rosaline and I went to the concert hall for my rehearsal."

He paused and then remembered. "Ahh before I forget, I wanted to give you all concerts to my performance on opening night."

Bryan took out the tickets from his jacket pocket and handed them to Rosalind.

Lisianthus looked around and replied, "It looks beautiful! I am sure it's chocolate is as beautiful as well."

**********************************

Rosalind took the tickets from Bryan and replied, "Ahh thanks, Bryan. I am sure your concert will be the best. We'd all love to hear you play."

Alex replied, "Yup and it's pretty quiet, too. Usually, customers come here and order chocolate for takeout but as you can see, there are a few tables here in case customers want to eat here as well. I love the atmosphere here."

The lady returned and handed a couple of menus to Alex and Lisianthus. "Here you are. And I'm Lily. Please let me know when you two are ready to order."

Lily curtseyed and then returned to her place behind the counter.

Alex turned to his menu and opened it up to see what was available.

************************************

Bryan replied, "Thank you, Rosalind. I look forward to all of you coming. How's everyone doing?"

Lisianthus began viewing her menu as well, to see the kinds of chocolate available. It looked like there were plenty of good chocolates and Lisianthus said, "Wow, they do have lots of good chocolates here and many kinds."

***********************************

Rosalind replied, "Ahh we are fine. We were just viewing the papers for the shop we want to buy to see details and stuff."

Alex replied, "Yup, definitely. Do you have any preference for specific chocolates? We could have milk chocolate or dark chocolate. Or perhaps maybe have some chocolate cake or ice cream? It is getting pretty warm and some ice cream would be great. What do you think, darling?"

**********************************

Bryan replied, "I see. Would you like me to help you out with purchasing the shop? Greg and I are good friends and I'd be happy to help out."

(Ok, I'm going on Facebook for a while but I'll be back. ^^)

(Ahh ok. ^^)

Lisianthus thought about it and replied, "Some chocolate ice cream would be great. Anything with chocolate, I love it! It doesn't matter whether it is a cake or an ice cream."

*************************************

Rosalind shook her head and replied, "Awww thanks, Bryan, but it's alright; Greg and I can manage. Right, my love?"

Alex smiled and replied, "Ok then. Would it be all right if I ordered for us? I've been here before and I know exactly the perfect dessert."

*******************************

Greg smiled and replied, "Yup, that's right, honey. It's really nice of you to offer, Bryan, but we'll be all right."

Bryan replied, "Ahh all right. Well, anyway, I hope you all can come on opening night. The tickets are for balcony seats so you all will have a wonderful view of the performance."

Lisianthus nodded and replied, "Sure, sure. I don't mind."

*************************************

Rosalind replied, "Ahh that's great. And of course, Rosaline will be there, right?"

Alex nodded and waved his hand to indicate that they were ready to order. Lily walked over to the couple with a pad of paper and pen and asked, "Are you ready to order?"

Alex replied, "Yup, I sure am. We'll both have chocolate ice cream and for the toppings, we'd love chocolate syrup, chocolate whipped cream and a cherry on top."

Lily scribbled the orders and then replied, "Ahh all right. Would you two like anything to drink?"

Alex replied, "Ahh I know. One large tall chocolate milk shake with two straws."

Lily scribbled down the additional order and replied, "Ok. Your order will be ready soon." She then walked to the back of the shop to start filling the order.

Alex turned back to Lisianthus and said, "I hope it's all right that I ordered a chocolate milk shake. I wanted us to share."

**********************************

Bryan nodded happily and replied, "Yup, Rosaline will definitely be there."

He looked over at Rosaline happily who had been quiet the whole time.

Lisianthus replied, "Of course it is! I would be more than happy to share with you."

*********************************

Rosaline had a cold expression on her face and replied, "Why, I wouldn't miss my husband's opening night."

Alex held both of Lisianthus' hands with his own and replied, "And it's romantic for the two of us to share a drink together."

He looked into Lisianthus' eyes and his own twinkled with romance.

**************************

Bryan chuckled quietly and wrapped his arms around Rosaline. "Ahh isn't my love the best?"

He hugged Rosaline lovingly in his arms.
