Romance RP

(Yup, that's right and since I know it's an overheating issue, then definitely a gaming laptop would be better, even if it costs more than the standard one.  I did find one online that I really like and I know it would last me for many years and I can game really intensively on it and still multi-task so yeah.  XD)

Ryan replied, "Actually, they're outside.  Matt will probably come back inside soon but your daughter..."

He trailed off, not wanting to say that she was outside to avoid Lisianthus.

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

Helena smiled and reached out to touch Nathan's hand.  She then waited for him to make the telepathic communication to Olivia.

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

Alex quickly took his shower and after drying off, he put on his clothes for the day, a pair of blue jeans and a green shirt.  He then combed his hair and leaving the bathroom, he said,

"I'm all done."

He then put away his pajamas.

(Yup and even a standard one with high specifications would do if you aren't planning on very high-tech games. XD And ahh Matthew should respond to the shapeshifter, I think? xD)

Lady Penelope sighed, understanding what Ryan wanted to say. She nodded and smiled a bit to him, without saying anything. 

Lisianthus had started plating everything and laying them on the table.

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

Nathan held Helena's hand and then made the telepathic communication, connecting Helena and Olivia together.

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

Lycoris smiled softly as she heard Alex's voice and replied, 

"Welcome back. You smell all fresh now. I bet you are looking quite handsome too."

(Ahh sorry about Matt not responding.  Kind of still thinking about my comp issue.  lol  Anyway, I showed Folke what comp I'd like and he said it definitely would be more than enough.  I just want a newer, modern one so it can last me many years.  XD)

Ryan nodded and helped Lisianthus, as the waffles were all cooked.

Meanwhile, Matthew said, "I know you don't want to eat because of her but hey, I'm going to take you out and you eat anything you want."

He nodded decisively at her and then headed back inside.

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

Helena then talked to Olivia, telling her that she and Nathan needed to return to the gods' world.  However, she would make sure to keep in regular communication with Olivia.  Olivia was sad but understood and replied that she would look after Helena's place and her shop.

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

Alex blushed and replied, "Awww thanks, Lycoris.  We both shine wonderfully, don't we?  Now, how about some breakfast?  You must be hungry."

(Yup, I totally understand and no problem on Matt. XD)

Lisianthus and Ryan had finished laying everything on the table as Matthew made it back. Lady Penelope looked at him and smiling, she said,

"Good morning, darling. Umm Anjela isn't coming to eat?"

She could guess the answer but she still asked anyhow.

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

Nathan could hear Helena's and Olivia's conversation although he didn't interfere of course, and waited for the ladies to finish talking.

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

Lycoris nodded happily and replied, 

"Yes, breakfast sounds good. I look forward to anything you make. Your cooking is always great to have."

(Thanks.  XD)

Matthew shook his head and approaching Lady Penelope so that only she would hear, he quietly said,

"But I'll take her out to eat in town and there's no way she'll refuse me."

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

Helena and Olivia continued to talk for a little longer and they said their goodbyes for now.  Helena then turned to Nathan and said,

"Ok, I'm done.  Thank you for letting me talk to mom."

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

Alex smiled and replied, "Great.  I'll see what we can make for us this morning."

He helped Lycoris to her feet and then escorted her downstairs to the kitchen.

Lady Penelope smiled at Matthew's comment and even giggled a little bit, and nodded to him. Lisianthus and Ryan finished laying the breakfast and Lisianthus happily said, 

"Okay, let's eat, everyone! The food is hot and delicious."

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

Nathan smiled softly at Helena and nodding, he said, "No problem."

He paused then said, "Well, if you are all ready, we should get going. I'll need you to take us somewhere where I can summon the portal but we need to get Night first."

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

Lycoris followed Alex downstairs, holding to him as he took them to the kitchen. On the way, she asked, 

"So umm, what will you make for breakfast today?"

Matthew grinned and replied, "It smells delicious.  I'm starving."

Ryan added, "Then dig in.  We made plenty for everyone."

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

Helena nodded and replied, "Of course."

As they headed out, Helena asked, "So you need some space to summon the portal?"

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

Alex looked thoughtful and replied, "Let's see.  How about oatmeal?  Have I made it for you yet?"

Lisianthus nodded happily and replied, "Yup, let's start eating while it's hot."

She started eating happily, while Lady Penelope and the chancellor started eating as well.

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

Nathan nodded and replied, "That's right and you know, I don't think it's wise that we summon the portal in the middle of the town. Is it a common sight here in Devenshire that you find a portal being summoned in the middle of the day?"

He chuckled a bit at his comment.

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

Lycoris looked curious and shaking her head, she said, "Nope, not really. What's oatmeal?"

Ryan and Matthew started to eat as well, and Matthew commented, "The waffles are delicious and the honey syrup is perfect with them."

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

Helena giggled and replied, "You have a point.  Ok, how about we head to the area just outside the forests, where I trained the other day?  There should be plenty of room to summon the portal."

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

Alex replied, "It's kind of like warm cereal.  It's perfect especially for cold mornings and you can make it as sweet as you wish, like adding cinnamon or chocolate powder to it.  And it keeps for a long time.  What do you think?"

The couple had made their way to the kitchen.

(Getting sleepy so I'll get off for the night now and go to sleep but I'll check back tomorrow before I go to work and all.  Nite, nite, Love.  ^^)

(Nite, nite, phoenix. ^^)

Lisianthus grinned happily and nodding, she said, "They totally are but you know, chocolate syrup is the best. Nothing can top it for me."

She continued having her breakfast happily, as did Lady Penelope and the chancellor.

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

Nathan smiled and nodding, he said, "Alright. Let's just head to the stables first so we can pick Night up then we can head to that forest clearing to summon the portal and go."

He carried both his and Helena's luggage and let her lead the way out of her apartment and to the stables.

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

Lycoris' eyes lit up with curiosity as Alex explained oatmeal to her and her eyes twinkled as he mentioned chocolate powder. She replied,

"Then can you make it really, really sweet? And add lots of chocolate powder? That would be really delicious, right?"

Ryan chuckled and he and Matthew continued to eat their breakfast.  Ryan turned to Lisianthus and said,

"Beautiful, I contacted Duchess Irene while you were getting ready so she'll be waiting for us."

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

Helena walked beside Nathan as they left the apartment and went outside, heading to the stables.  The morning was beautiful as always and Helena held Romeo and Mindy in her arms as Matthew carried their luggage.

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

Alex chuckled and replied, "Sure, I can totally do that.  I'll get the oatmeal started and add plenty of sugar to make it sweet.  Then we can add the chocolate powder once it's done."

He helped Lycoris into a seat and then taking out a pot and the ingredients for oatmeal, he began to make breakfast for the two of them.

Lisianthus looked curiously at Ryan and replied, "Really? That's nice. I can't wait to meet her. I mean, it's not really 'meeting' since I am supposed to know her but yeah."

The chancellor looked at the couple and asked, "Pardon me for interfering, but you are going back to the gods' world?"

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

Nathan carried the luggage and followed Helena as she took them to the stables, with Fiona flying near the couple. They soon made it at the stables and Nathan found a stablehand. He approached him and smiling, he said, 

"Good morning, sir. Is Night all awake?"

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

Lycoris nodded happily and waited patiently as Alex made them breakfast. She couldn't help but smile softly and comment,

"You're really kind and generous, Alex. You take such good care of me. I know I can be a handful but you're so patient. I feel like I am your daughter sometimes."

Ryan looked at the chancellor and replied, "We are but it's just for the day.  Sia's memories might come back to her more if she sees it but we'll be back around dinnertime."

He turned to Lady Penelope and asked, "Can you help us open the portal?"

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

The stablehand nodded and replied, "Good morning, sir.  Yes, Night is awake and has just eaten.  Would you like me to take him out?"

Helena turned to Nathan and added, "We should say our goodbyes to Mr. Davies as well."

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

Alex chuckled and replied, "I love taking care of you, Lycoris, and if you were my daughter, I wouldn't love you the way I do now.  My heart is just so full of love and passion for you, you know."

Lady Penelope looked to Ryan and smiling a little, she nodded and said, "Just for you, darling. I can help of course."

Lady Penelope didn't like Lisianthus anymore than her daughter did, after all, but at least she was tolerant. She soon finished her breakfast, as did the chancellor and Lisianthus.

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

Nathan looked to Helena and nodding, he said, "Yes, yes, of course."

He looked to the stablehand and asked, "Is Mr. Davies here right now, sir?"

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

Lycoris blushed deeply at hearing Alex's response and hanging her head shyly, she replied, 

"It's my honor, Alex. I-I don't understand why you love me sometimes, and I truly feel like I am unworthy of your sentiments but here you are, showering me with your love and care. I can be nothing but eternally grateful. I am the luckiest girl in the world."

Ryan and Matthew soon finished eating, too, and getting up, Matthew said, "Thank you for breakfast, everyone.  It was wonderful."

He looked to Ryan and Lisianthus and added, "You two have a great day."

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

The stablehand nodded and replied, "Yes, he is.  He and the missus are just finishing breakfast.  I'll go call for him."

He went to the main house to call for Mr. Davies and soon, Mr. Davies and the stablehand returned.  Mr. Davies smiled at the couple and said,

"Good morning, you two.  I was told that you both wanted to see me?"

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

Alex blushed and replied, "And I am the luckiest guy ever, to have the most wonderful woman here with me."

He continued to cook the oatmeal and it was soon done.  He took out two bowls and poured the oatmeal in them.  Then he sprinkled plenty of chocolate powder on top and placed one bowl in front of Lycoris.  He then asked, "What would you like to drink?  Juice is ok?"

Lisianthus grinned happily at Matthew and replied,

"Thanks, Matt. You too! Have a great day and we'll see you at dinner."

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

Nathan smiled warmly at Mr. Davies and nodding, he said,

"Good morning, sir. That's right. Helena and I are returning to the gods' world and we would like to thank you for your wonderful hospitality and for taking care of Night so well. It was very generous and kind of you."

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

Lycoris nodded happily and replied, "Yes, juice would be great. I can smell the oatmeal and it smells really, really delicious."

(My class for today got cancelled so I'm here.  ^^)

Matthew smiled and replied, "We'll see you then."

He bowed to the group and then left, heading outside to meet with the shapeshifter.  Meanwhile, Ryan turned to Lisianthus and said, 

"Let's clean up here and then we can get going."

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

Mr. Davies smiled and replied, "You're very welcome.  I am a little surprised you two are leaving so soon, though."

Helena replied, "Urgent business needs my Nathan's attention so we have to leave earlier than expected."

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

Alex grinned and replied, "Thanks, Lycoris."  He took out a bottle of apple juice and two empty glasses.  He poured the juice into them and placed both glasses on the table.  He smiled and said,

"Ok, everything's all set."

(Welcome back. ^^)

Lisianthus nodded happily and said, "Okay!"

She got up and started cleaning up, and Lady Penelope also helped clean up with the couple.

Meanwhile, the shapeshifter was sitting under the usual tree, waiting for Matthew to show up.

**********

Nathan nodded and replied, "That's correct. Hopefully, we can finish it soon. We'll definitely make it back here as soon as possible."

**********

Lycoris smiled happily and said, "Okay, let me try the oatmeal."

She reached out carefully to her spoon and carefully tasted a little of her oatmeal. After savoring the taste for a moment, her face lit up with delight and she said, 

"Yum! It's really, really good and so sweet. I love it so much."

(Thanks.  ^^)

Ryan helped Lisianthus to clean up.

Meanwhile, Matthew found the shapeshifter sitting outside under a tree and smiling at her, he said,

"Ok, let's get going.  I can't wait to show you Devenshire."

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

Mr. Davies nodded and replied, "Of course, I understand."

The stablehand had entered the stables and returned soon after leading Night.  Mr. Davies turned to Night and said,

"It has been our pleasure to have you stay with us, Mr. Night.  You're welcome here anytime."

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

Alex smiled and replied, "Aww I'm so happy to hear that.  Oatmeal is a simple but it's quite healthy for you."

He began to eat his oatmeal, too.

(Ahh yeah, I should give you a heads up.  I've been feeling distracted, worrying over certain things so if I don't post much today, that's why.  Hopefully, I feel better tomorrow but yeah, maybe it's because of the rainy weather or whatnot.  I didn't even get any editing done today although I suppose I'm allowed an off day every once in a while.  ^^)

(Aww I understand. Please rest as much as you want and I hope things you're worried about get resolved soon. ^^  )

The shapeshifter looked up at Matthew as he approached her and sighing, she said, 

"You sure you still want to go with me? Seriously, I'd reconsider it. I am not fun company."

**********

Night whinnied happily and bowed his head respectfully to Mr. Davies. Nathan smiled and said, "It sounds like Night enjoyed his stay as well, Mr. Davies. Thank you for everything. We'll make sure to visit again when we return."

**********

Lycoris nodded happily and continued eating her oatmeal, enjoying every spoonful. She reached out to drink a little of her juice and smiling happily, she said,

"Oh and you made apple juice. It's my favorite. Thank you so much, Alex."

(Thanks.  Hopefully, I'm just overworrying it but yeah.  ^^)

Matthew smiled and replied, "Hey, I'm sure and I'm more than enough fun for both of us.  Let's go and I'm going to take you out for breakfast."

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

Mr. Davies replied, "It was a pleasure to meet you, too, sir.  I hope you all return soon and have a safe trip."

Helena smiled and replied, "Thank you, Mr. Davies."

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

Alex grinned and replied, "No problem.  I know how much you love apple juice and fortunately, there was still enough ingredients to make it."

(I hope it all turns out 

The shapeshifter got up and furrowing her eyebrows slightly, she said, "I think I've already said that I don't have any appetite. If I wanted to eat, I would have."

She paused then said, "Hmm no one is going to give you weird stares for walking around with a cloaked woman? Or is that a common sight in your town? I don't care how people may look at me but it might make you uncomfortable?"

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

Nathan replied warmly, "Thank you, sir. Please excuse us."

He took Night from the stablehand and then the party moved away from the stables, heading to the spot where Helena used to train.

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

Lycoris replied happily, "You're so thoughtful, Alex. My guardian angel."

She smiled softly and continued eating her breakfast, enjoying it to the fullest.

(Ahh I'm assuming you meant that it'll all turn out in my favor?  Well, I hope so.  I think I could use quite a bit of positive luck.  XD)

Matthew replied, "You'd be surprised at how open the people in town are, but I don't care what they think.  I'm just going to be happy spending the day with my friend.  So come on, let's go."

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

Mr. Davies waved goodbye to the party as Nathan and the others left the stables are and proceeded to leave town.  Helena commented,

"You know, even though we only got to spend a little time here, I'll always remember this place as where we got married."

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

Alex blushed and replied, "You're my guardian angel, too."

He continued to eat his breakfast, enjoying the food and the company.

(Ahh oops, that's what I meant. XD Sorry. I am in the pharmacy so sometimes I have to get up in the middle of posting and all. XD)

The shapeshifter shrugged and replied, "If you say so. You're too excited about this."

She followed Matthew out of Ryan's house and towards Devenshire.

Meanwhile, Lisianthus and Ryan had finished cleaning up. Lisianthus looked happily at Ryan and said, "We're all done here! Let's get going!"

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

Nathan smiled lovingly at Helena and nodding, he said, 

"You're completely right about that, you know. This place will always be special to me too. I mean, I will be sure to make us a proper, beautiful wedding that you deserve, love, but this place will definitely be where we truly married."

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

Lycoris continued eating her breakfast, soon finishing up. She happily said,

"I am pretty full. That was really delicious. You're the best, Alex."

(Ahh no problem.  This might be my last post for tonight since I'm struggling on this particular level I'm gaming now but yeah, just in case.  XD)

Matthew walked beside the shapeshifter as the two of them headed towards Devenshire.  He commented,

"I hope you like the town.  It's small but it's home."

Ryan nodded happily and replied, "Ok."

He turned to Lady Penelope and said, "I want to thank you for helping us with the portal.  I do want to learn how to do it myself so I won't need to trouble you in the future."

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

Helena nodded happily and replied, "Yup, that's right."

Mindy meowed as the group walked away from the town, and Helena said, "Aww I know, girl.  But you're going to love Nathan's home.  It's beautiful and there's lots of room."

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

Alex smiled and replied, "You're welcome.  I'm happy you liked it.  I feel full, too.  Let me go ahead and clean up and then we can figure out what to do for the day."
