It felt like it had been a ridiculously long time since they last had an opportunity like that since it was basically time to sleep when their house finally went silent. Sophie was so, so grateful!

As they walked through the courtyard and towards the bench, Sophie admired the lovely fountain. "That's so pretty!" She remarked, fingers still interlaced with her husband's. The fountain itself, the flowers and the stone floor... all very beautiful and the perfect setting.

Sitting down next to Mordred, Sophie looked up at him and smiled when he sighed. It had been over two decades since they had first met and he was still as handsome as ever. She was one lucky lady. Nestling her head against his neck, she wrapped her arms around him and sighed happily. His comment almost caught up by surprise. Not the fact he had spoken, obviously, but what he had said. "I feel great." She replied, squishing him a little. And even if she was tired, that was the perfect setting to change that. None of her kids were anywhere near, bless them, which was almost an instant resting opportunity for her.

To be honest, he didn't want the day to end anytime soon. It really was a treat to get a short break from being a responsible adult, and just while away on their own doing absolutely nothing. Stillness and quiet was almost sacred to Mordred...a luxury he can no longer afford. It was always busy at work, and the same goes for when he goes home. His study was perhaps his only sanctuary, but most of the time, that space too was mostly shared with their first daughter. Well, how could he possibly deny Catherine access to it when she obviously also found a semblance of quiet and peace in there?

Mordred glanced at the fountain and nodded once in agreement. The place reminded him of his childhood home wherein his own mother would spend a great deal outdoors, enjoying a drink or an intriguing book. It was also the place where his father would just stare into space, enjoying the stillness...away from the chaotic world of being an Auror.

As usual, the dragonologist found his thoughts wandering far from the present. Sophie's presence always made things better. He knew that he should be the one looking out for her, but it seems that after all those years together, it was always her on the lookout. He felt right like it was exactly how it was supposed to be. "I'm glad that you do," he said planting another kiss on her head. "You're amazing. As always."
