Dimitrius chuckled as he took another bite. "Well, I can't say I'll mind having it in the house. Though we may have to stock up," he added with a wink as he popped another piece of fruit into his mouth.
|
"Thank you for cutting up fruit, love. I'm afraid I didn't get much sleep last night." Ariala said shyly, not exposing anymore details for Dimeria's sake. "I was thinking of bringing Marreck and Erreminette to the stream. The water's always the best in April." Ariala smiled happily as she moved to her calender and changed the month. "Only a month until our wedding." Ariala said happily, clapping her hands together before moving back to her breakfast.
|
Dimitrius smiled at the memory as he reached across the table and caressed her hand with his fingertips, his pointer finger lightly brushing of her engagement and first wedding ring. "It seems like a century," he whispered softly. Smiling at her, Dimitrius asked softly, "Do you want a picnic basket made, love?"
|
"I can make it." Ariala smiled as she stood up with her empty bowl and tea cup and made her way to the sink. After she finished washing them, Ariala made her way to Dimitrius and gave his cheek a soft kiss. "But thank you." She whispered before giving his cheek another kiss and moving to the cupboards before beginning to fill the basket with sandiwches and assorted snacks.
|
Finishing their breakfasts, Dimitrius brought their dishes to the sink and washed them before going back to Ria. "Would you like to go see Emelaide and Auntie Lina this afternoon?"
Nodding sleepily, Dimeria said she would. Well, it sounded like it was an agreement, but really it was a bunch of sleepy mumbles. Chuckling Dimitrius picked her up, "I'll go give Ria a bath and then take her over to Marreck and Emelaide's house. Can you fetch me an outfit for her when you're finished with the basket love?" he asked as he headed towards the bathroom to start a bath for Dimeria. |
"Of course." Ariala smiled as she turned back to the basket, using the leftover fruit from breakfast and putting that in the basket as well. Ariala went to Dimeria's room and pulled out a light blue dress with a white flower design over it. Smiling as she saw the young elf's dress, Ariala felt an idea hit her as she went to her and Dimitrius's bedroom and found her silver locket before heading back to Dimeria's room.
|
Finishing Dimeria's bath, and practically taking one himself from all her splashing and playing with the toy duck, Dimitrius wrapped Dimeria in a towel before putting the duck and bubbles away beneath the sink. Picking her up, Dimitrius brought her to her room and placed a kiss upon Ariala's cheek and set Dimeria on the changing table, "She's all yours, love. I'm going to go get changed, she soaked me," he added with a laugh as he slipped off his soaking wet shirt and headed to their bedroomm to change.
|
Ariala laughed as she patted Dimeria's head lightly. "Good job." She winked playfully before drying off the younger elf and dressing her in the blue dress. "How would you like to wear a locket of mine?" Ariala asked as she held out the silver locket to Dimeria. "I wore it when I was younger." She explained.
|
Dimeria's eyes lit up as she poked the locked to make it sway and glisten in the light, "Pretty..." Nodding Dimeria smiled up at Ariala, "It's Ari's so Ria will take good care of it!"
|
Ariala smiled as she hooked the locket around Dimeria's neck. "It looks pretty on you." She smiled as she picked up a brush and began to brush the younger elf's hair. "There you go." Ariala smiled warmly as she pulled a few shoes from the closet. "What one do you think?" Ariala asked as she set out a pair of white shoes with a few flowers alongside a pair of blue shoes with small crystals on the front.
|
"Both are pretty, Ari choose," Dimeria smiled as Dimitrius entered, dressed and ready to go.
"You look beautiful Ria. Where'd you get the necklace?" asked Dimitrius as he noticed the locket around her neck. "Ari let me wear it," said Ria with a large grin on her face as she looked at Dimitrius happily. |
Ariala smiled as she put the blue flats on Dimeria's feet. "It was mine when I was younger and I thought she'd like it." Ariala smiled as she brought the white shoes back with the rest. "And now she's all ready." Ariala smiled as she picked up Dimeria and set her on the wooden floor.
|
Wrapping his arms around Ariala's waist, Dimitrius placed a long, sweet, tender kiss upon Ariala's lips. "And now I'm ready," he whispered softly against her lips between kisses while Dimeria giggled. Giving her one last kiss, Dimitrius smiled at Ariala and picked up Dimeria, "Have fun, love. And don't worry about coming home late, I'll hold dinner for you," he added with a wink before placing a kiss on her forehead, "Want to come with me to wake up Em and Marreck then head down to the meadow to wait?"
|
"Thank you." Ariala said happily, blushing slightly fromt he kisses. "Have fun." Ariala smiled as she hugged first Dimeria then Dimitrius. "Bye." She sang happily before grabbing the basket from the counter and running to find Erreminette and then to Marreck's new home.
|
Dimitrius chuckled as he grabbed a jacket for Ria and handed it to her to slip on on his way to the front door. Setting her on the floor, Dimitrius slipped on his jacket and smiled, "Looks like it's just you and me Ria. Ready to go wake up Emelaide?" he asked as he picked her back up and headed outside.
"Yes sirree!" said Dimeria happily as they made their way to Emelaide and Marreck's house, just barely making there without getting lost. Knocking on the door, Dimitrius called for the couple, "Em? Marreck? You guys up yet?" Emelaide startled awake at Dimitrius's calls. Turning over, still unclothed from the previous evening, Emelaide wrapped her arms around Marreck's waist and snuggled close as she whispered, "Guess that means no breakfast in bed, huh." |
"Too bad." Marreck sighed as he pulled himself out of bed and threw on a pair of sweat pants. "Time to get up, love." Marreck said quietly as he bent over the bed to give Emelaide a small kiss.
|
Scooching over a bit towards her side of the bed, Emelaide took Marreck's hand and pulled him back onto the bed before wrapped her arms around his neck and placing a long, tender kiss upon his lips. "Or we could still have breakfast together and we can be late?" she suggested between kisses with a smile, "I think I like that idea more."
- Dimitrius smiled at Ria, "Ria love, I think we're being ignored by the lazy couple. Why don't you try." After Dimitrius knocked on the door, Ria called shyly, "Emmie? Emmie! Wake-up sleepy head! We're going to Auntie Lina's to bake sweets while Ari's with Marreck and Erre! Come with us?" |
"Now how can you say no to that?" Marreck asked against Emelaide's lips as he moved away from the bed again, pulling Emelaide up with him. "I love you but get dressed, love." Marreck teased lightly, as he put his arms around her waist and gave her another tender kiss. "I'll get the door." He smiled, placing a kiss on Emelaide's forehead before going into the kitchen.
"Good morning." Marreck smiled as he opened the door for Dimitrius and Dimeria. "Would you like anything to eat?" Marreck yawned as he walked over to the counter and bit into an apple. |
"No thank you, we just had breakfast. Is Em up yet? Ari just left to get Erre, so they're probably heading down to the waterfall after so I came to see if Em wanted to get out for the day and come bake with us."
- Stretching, Emelaide walked to her dresser and pulled on an undergarment set before walking to her closet and picking out a white skirt, white flats, light blue lace cami, and a white zip-up jacket. Brushing her hair and putting it up into a ponytail, Emelaide put in a pair of hoop earrings as she headed to the bathroom to quickly brush her teeth. Finishing up in here, Emelaide headed into the kitchen with a smile, "Morning! I'm starved, what's for breakfast?" "Cookies!" exclaimed Dimeria happily as she held out her arms for Emelaide. Chuckling, Emelaide took Dimeria from Dimitrius and held her against her hip as Dimeria's legs wrapped around her waist, "As good as that sounds, dearest, I don't think my little ones would grow too well if I had only sweets. How about a healthy breakfast first, then sweets." Dimeria nodded, "Yes!" "How about it Marreck, have breakfast with me before you leave?" Emelaide asked as she placed a light kiss on his lips. "Lina and Ari won't be angry if were a few moments late, will they?" |
"Of course." Marreck smiled against her lips before moving to the icebox. "And what would you like, love?" Marreck asked as he searched through the ice box and pulled out three eggs. "i can make eggs and toast, waffles, pancakes. Anything you and our twins desire." Marreck grinned devilishly as he began to juggle the eggs skillfully.
|
Laughing as Dimeria clapped at Marreck's egg juggling, Emelaide headed over to the table as Dimitrius took Ria and sat down. "Hmmn, how about chocolate chip pancakes, blueberry waffles, cinnamon french toast, and scrambled eggs?" Emelaide asked as her mouth began to water at the thought of it all, "And some orange juice?"
Dimitrius laughed, "Em, love, how can you possibly eat all of that?" "Easily. And I'll still have room for cookies!" Emelaide grinned as she cradled her stomach, "I think I'm going to be one of those pregnant women who gains fifty pounds extra," she laughed with a blush. |
"Alright." Marreck said as he tossed an egg under his arm and caught it over his shoulder before giving Dimeria a wink. "Chocolate pancakes, blueberry waffles, cinnamon french toast, and scrambled eggs it is." He smiled before turning to the counter and measuring out the various ingredients for the breakfast.
|
Dimeria grinned as she watched Marreck, "Again again!"
Emelaide laughed as she called over to him, "Show off." "Jealous?" asked Dimitrius teasingly as he set the squirming Dimeria onto the floor, who quickly ran over to Marreck and stood on her toes as her hands rested on the counter so she could watch him prepare Emelaide's breakfast. Rolling her eyes playfully, Emelaide shook her head, "I can cook as well and you know it." "Yes, but can you do that?" "If you want broken eggs, sure," Emelaide laughed as she rested her elbows on the table and her chin in her palms, waiting for her food. |
Marreck laughed as he picked up Dimeria and sat her on the counter. "Again?" He asked devilishly before tossing an egg in the air and spinning so that he caught it behind his back. "How about this?" He asked playfully as he began to juggle again, beginning to toss the eggs under his arms and over his shoulders as he continued to juggle.
|
Dimeria laughed as she clapped her hands happily, "Yay!"
Emelaide smiled as she watched Marreck and Dimeria. "I didn't know I was marrying a man who could entertain so well," she teased with a smile, "You do realize I'm going to send the twins to you for entertainment every morning, right?" Dimitrius chuckled as he teased and ruffled Emelaide's hair lightly, "I have a feeling at least one of them is going to be like you and never be a morning person." |
