Romance RP

Stacey and Megan followed William and once the kite was set up, they began to fly it again, as the wind had picked up.

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

Bryan replied, "That's what I thought, too, but I think the incident with Lycoris this morning kind of made things worse. I don't Alex meant to hurt Nerine but him coming to Lycoris and letting her stay to study magic was a sore spot and all."

The family enjoyed the rest of the morning flying the kite, watching it as it flew high between the clouds and enjoying the company of each other.

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

Rosaline nodded in understanding and sighing, she replied, "I guess so. I talked with Alex before and he does want to fix things but I guess his impulsiveness at times can waste his efforts. If only he could control his actions a bit more."

(I'll have to get off now since my time is up and all. ^^ Nite, nite, phoenix. ^^)

Everyone continued to enjoy the wonderful weather, taking turns flying the kite and watching it go higher and higher. Stacey looked to William and Megan and said,

"Everything's perfect, isn't it?"

Megan nodded happily.

***********

Bryan nodded and replied, "I agree. I thought that things would be better once we all return home. I mean, Lycoris and Avi are planning to stay here so it would give Alex and Nerine to patch things up. But after talking to Nerine, it seems like she's lost all hope and I don't know what to do."

(Ahh ok. Nite, nite, Love. ^^)

William nodded happily as well and replied,

"I couldn't ask for anything more. Everything is going as I ever wished for and even better."

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

Rosaline sighed and replied, "But she shouldn't lose hope. There is no reason to. I mean, I know she's been through a lot and everything but Alex still does love her, doesn't he? Well, sure, he does love Lycoris in the same time but he loves Nerine and that's what matters. There's always hope if there's love."

Megan looked to William and replied, "I'm happy that you're happy, William."

Stacey added, "Me, too, and you look even more handsome when you're happy, if that's even possible."

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

Bryan nodded and replied, "I agree, my love. After talking to Nerine, it seems that part of the problem is that Alex isn't showing enough attention to her. I think he's trying but I guess he should try harder?"

William blushed happily and replied, "I'll always be happy then so I can always look handsome for you two, my pretties. I want you two happy always, too, because you look absolutely beautiful then."

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

Rosaline replied, "I don't know although honestly, I've watched Alex and Nerine for the past few days and it did seem like Alex was doing his best to pay attention to Nerine and not upset. I think it's just that things went out of control this morning."

Stacey and Megan blushed happily and Stacey replied, "We'll always be happy for you, won't we, Megan?"

Megan nodded happily and replied, "Yup, we will!"

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

Bryan nodded and replied, "You're right about that, my love, and it certainly doesn't help that Nerine has negative feelings towards Lycoris. She was telling me earlier how she thought that Lycoris was manipulative, bringing up the incident this morning. But I didn't think that was the case."

William grinned happily and replied, "I want nothing more."

After a while of playing with the kite, William noticed it was around lunchtime so he said,

"How about lunch now? It's around time."

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

Rosaline raised an eyebrow and after a moment of thinking, she replied,

"I don't think Lycoris is like that at all. I mean, I sometimes think of her as naive actually. How could she be manipulative? If it's because Alex loves her, that's a little complicated and about the incident this morning-she looked upset more than anything."

Megan's stomach growled a little so nodding, she replied, "Yup, I'm hungry. I want to eat."

Stacey grinned and replied, "Sure, let's go find something to eat. We'll put away the kite first and then take our things and decide where to eat for lunch."

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

Bryan nodded and replied, "That's what it looked like to me, too. Alex was worried about Lycoris' safety if she were to be left alone here and the thought did occur to me as well. It looks like as long as Alex loves them both, there's going to continue to be problems."

He sighed to himself.

William nodded and he took the kite down, wrapping it back as it was. Then they got the folders and once they had gotten everything and were ready, he turned to them and asked,

"What would you like to have today?"

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

Rosaline nodded and after a minute of silence, she looked at Bryan thoughtfully and asked,

"Do you think Alex loves them both the same way or does he favor one over the other?"

Stacey turned to Megan and said, "You can decide today, Megan."

Megan looked thoughtful and after a minute, she replied,

"I want seafood pizza. I like it a lot."

Stacey grinned and replied, "Me, too." She turned to William and asked, "Would that be all right, handsome?"

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

Bryan thought about Rosaline's question and replied, "It looks like he loves them both equally, as far as my observations have told me. But what do you think, my love?"

William nodded happily and replied, "Sure, that would be great. You can lead the way, pretty."

He carried the things and followed Stacey on the way to the restaurant.

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

Rosaline shrugged and replied, "I can't really tell though I do wonder sometimes why Nerine seems so hurt about it when Lycoris doesn't complain. As far as I know, he's married to them both, right? Technically, they have the same rights although Nerine should have the priority since he married her first. Meh, this is complicated. What does this guy do to himself?"

Stacey nodded and led the way to a restaurant that served delicious seafood pizza. It was a bit far from the park so it took a little longer to walk there.

Once they arrived, a waiter welcomed the family and showed them to a table. Then he handed them menus and left.

Stacey then looked at her menu and said, "So we'll have seafood pizza. Anything else?"

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

Bryan smiled a little over Rosaline's latter comment and he replied, "I know what you mean. Alex does get himself into some crazy situations at times. But Nerine mentioned to me about how Alex fell in love with Lisianthus way back and she said that Alex didn't pay attention to her. It's hard to figure out how much actually happened since I haven't talked to Alex much about this."

William looked at the menu then said, "We could have pinapple juice to go along with it. It isn't greatly found in Lessire. How about it?"

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

Rosaline nodded and replied, "Yeah, I remember when you told me about it and I was pretty shocked there. I could understand Alex's situation with Lycoris a little but he definitely didn't have an excuse with Lisianthus. I guess it all led to a build-up of negative emotions on Nerine's part."

Megan replied, "I like that and can we have cheesy breadsticks, too?"

Stacey nodded and replied, "Sure." She turned to William and said, "If we're all set, go ahead and order for us, handsome."

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

Bryan nodded and replied, "I can understand why Nerine doesn't trust Alex so much. I'm not sure what's the best way to resolve this problem. It seems to me that for Nerine to be happy, Alex would have to stop loving Lycoris entirely but I doubt that'll happen."

William nodded and once the waiter arrived, he told him of their orders and the waiter left to bring everything.

Once he was gone, he turned to Stacey and Megan and asked,

"How are you enjoying the day so far, pretties?"

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

Rosaline sighed and replied, "Then what's the solution? If Alex isn't ready to let Lycoris go and Nerine won't accept anything else, would they...would they divorce or something? I'd hate to see that happening. Nerine would be so devastated."

Megan replied, "This is another wonderful day so far. Flying kites was great and I loved playing hide and seek."

Stacey added, "Me, too, and I liked tag as well, especially once I caught you, handsome."

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

Bryan sighed as well and replied, "I don't know. I don't think Alex will divorce Nerine, though. He knows she's been through a lot and that would devastate her."

William smiled and replied, "Me as well. It was a lot of running, though, but hey, doing sports is a good thing. Though I am sure hungry now."

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

Rosaline replied, "Maybe but I wonder how they'd live together if they can't cope with each other or trust each other. It doesn't sound like a happy marriage at all to me."

Megan replied, "Me, too."

Stacey added, "All that exercise gave us quite the appetite."

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

Bryan shrugged and replied, "I have no idea. At the very least, it's an unusual marriage. That may be another reason Nerine is so upset. She probably never thought she'd have to share Alex with anyone, let alone be her sister. That would be hard on her emotionally."

William nodded in agreement and soon, the waiter arrived with food for everyone. He laid the plates and glasses in front of everyone then left the family to enjoy their meals.

William gestured to the ladies and said, "This looks delicious. Let's eat."

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

Rosaline nodded and replied, "Yeah. I remember back when Nerine and Alex went through all that trouble to get together and get married in the end. I honestly thought they'd be very happy together, considering what they went through. I imagine that at least she wanted a happy, peaceful life with him after that trouble but I guess she was disappointed."

Stacey and Megan nodded happily and everyone began eating their slices of pizza and drinking pineapple juice, enjoying the meal and each other's company.

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

Bryan nodded and thinking over the situation, he asked,

"If Nerine's and Lycoris' relationship got better, do you think it would help with Alex's and Nerine's relationship?"

As they ate, William turned to the girls and asked,

"After lunch, where would you like to go?"

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

Rosaline looked thoughtful and replied, "Maybe. It depends on whether Nerine would really want to share Alex after all this still or if she would forgive them and let things slide. Although if you ask me, I don't see it happening anytime soon with Nerine's current state of mind."

(Btw, sorry for the delays between the posts and all. I am posting and studying at the same time. ^^)

(Ahh no worries. I'm multi-tasking so it's all good. XD)

Stacey turned to William and asked, "Did we make any specific plans for the afternoon after kite flying? I forgot."

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

Bryan replied, "Yeah, I agree. Hmm, what do you think would help to resolve their problems? I really do want to help Nerine out. She's such a nice woman and she deserves to be happy after all the hardships she's had to endure."

(Ahh good. XD)

William sweatdropped and blushing in embarrassement, he said, "Same here actually."

He paused for a moment then said, "Didn't Megan want to go swimming? We could do that."

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

Rosaline looked thoughtful but after a few moments, she shook her head and sighing, she replied,

"I don't know. Only if Alex finally takes some real action to love Nerine and Nerine alone, but I don't see that happening soon either."

Megan cheered and replied, "Yup, I want to go swimming."

Stacey grinned and replied, "Then let's do that. We should head back to the inn after lunch to get our swimsuits and towels and then we can head to the beach."

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

Bryan replied, "Same here, my love. I guess I could try talking to Alex about this but I don't know whether it'll do any good. He might change for a short while but then he'd probably go back to his old patterns."
