"School is the same. A bit boring but nothing I can't tolerate." She picked at her fish absentmindedly. "I just can't wait for the end of the school year."

He nodded. "Fortunately it's only a few more weeks, right..?"

"Yeah, but it still feels like forever."
"I know how that feels." Lily smiled, trying to make conversation as well. "When I was in school, I couldn't wait for the Summer either."
Olivia looked at her for a moment. "Hm."

Chris frowned slightly at Olivia, but didn't push her to reply more. Instead he turned to Lily with a soft chuckle and replied, "I was the same way... but now that I'm done with school, I wish I could go back."

"Really? I don't think I would ever go back. I wasn't too popular."She laughed nervously as Olivia snickered softly.

Mrs. Alden shot a glare at Olivia, and Chris sighed softly and shook his head. "Not for the people... I just never realized that I'd miss the learning. It's much harder to pick something up without the structure of a class."

Lily nodded. "Yes, that's true." She smiled, sipping on her water. "I do enjoy learning new things, so I wouldn't mind going back to it."

"Sometimes I wonder if it would be fun to teach," he chuckled softly. "Unfortunately, I don't think there's anything I know enough about to actually teach a class on..."

She grinned. "I've thought about becoming an art teacher, actually. I wouldn't mind it."

She giggled and smiled happily, causing Olivia to sit up. "Mother, may I be excused?"

"Livvy, we haven't even had dessert yet..."

"Like I said, I don't have an appetite. I will be in my room." She walked out quickly.

Mrs. Alden sighed softly and looked to Lily apologetically. "You must excuse her... her teenage years have not been kind to her temperament."

She nodded. "I understand, being a teenager is rough. I'm sure she will warm up to me eventually..." She said, sounding unsure herself.

Chris smiled encouragingly to her. "I'll have a talk with her, okay..? Don't worry about it too much..."

She nodded, still smiling. "Well... What's for dessert...?"

Post by Aurelia on Mar 26, 2018 4:16:35 GMT -5
Mrs. Alden smiled gently. "Cold chocolate soufflé... it should be out soon."

"Oh, that sounds wonderful~! I'm a chocolate lover."
Mr. Alden grinned. "So is she~" He motioned over to his wife.

Mrs. Alden chuckled, "Guilty as charged~"
Chris grinned to Lily, once again starting to lose track of anything but her.

Lily giggled at the Alden's before looking back to Chris, quickly blushing when she met his gaze.

He felt his cheeks heat up, but didn't look away and just smiled at her until dessert arrived.

Once dessert was placed in front of her, she forced her eyes away and to the food. "Ooh. Yum~"

Chris blushed even more and took a small bite of his soufflé as his mother grinned happily at the two of them.

She finished hers quickly as well, smiling happily. "That was scrumptious~"

Soon Mrs. Alden had also finished hers, and she sighed in satisfaction. "It was... I'll have to thank Mrs. Hornsby again before she leaves for the evening."

Chris blushed, tongue-tied, and continued smiling at her. Mrs. Alden chuckled softly, then turned to her husband. "Dear, would you and Chris mind excusing us? I'd like to get to know Lily a bit better."
