Ashley leaned over the counter as she waited for the water t boil humming softly to herself until Thorfinn entered the kitchen, glancing up at him she smiled warmly and locked her eyes on his "I'm glad you came to see me"

"I'm glad I did, too." he said genuinely. "How have you been feeling?" he wasn't entirely sure what was going on with her, lately, but wanted to make sure that she was settling into 'their world' alright.

Ashley smiled weakly and let out a soft sigh "I've been ok, I just...it's strange for me there is a lot I can tell that Soleus and my father now are trying to keep me from he even said that he doesn't know if he wants to fit me into his world and I mean I understand I-I know it's complicated what with our clashing views and all but it's also nice...you know having someone who I actually care about...there is um...well there was someone else I could feel myself beginning to have a thing for b-but it wouldn't have worked out anyway so...this is good...I'm good"

He looked at her seriously for a moment, though he was having trouble concentrating with the overpowering scent of warm vanilla sugar in the air around and between them.
"As long as you're settling in all right." he insisted, still quite sure that her life with Soleus could work out alright for her.

Ashley nodded and ran her fingers through her hair with another smile "I am fine" she slipped her hand into his patting it gently "don't worry about me" she let her eyes and hand linger on his for a moment then snapped out of it when her kettle dinged softly, blushing she turned away from him to get the kettle and prepare the tea.

"Hm, I'm afraid that can't be helped." he said with a small smile, quirking an eyebrow at her.
He watched her turn to prepare the tea for him & made his way over, leaning against the counter beside her, facing the opposite way. "You didn't have any other plans, today? Just.. garden party & sit at home alone?" he couldn't help but be a little surprised. He knew she wasn't an extremely social person, but she seemed to spend most of her time with Charlotte & Broderick.

"mmm noppe" Ashley pondered for a moment "I was going to do some laundry and shower then finish my potions extra credit then probably just curl up with a book but I'd rather spend time with you anyway" she flashed him a genuinely sweet smile and nodded.

He smirked a bit.
"That's not exactly what I meant by plans, but I'll take it." he chuckled & reached for his mug, continuing to let the tea steep for a moment as he inhaled the rich scent of it.
"But only if you're sure - wouldn't want to get in the way of laundry & schoolwork." he teased her.

Ashley shook her head "no it's fine really I can do that any time did you have something else in mind to do?" she cocked her head to the side and smiled sweetly playing with a piece of her hair as she absentmindedly looked at him through her lashes.

He shook his head with a small smile.
"Ladies' Choice. Your house, your rules, pet." he insisted, taking a sip of his now steeped tea, sighing contently.

Ashley smiled and nodded "oh ok I should warn you I am not a terribly interesting person" she peeked up at him her head cocking to the side the smile still on her face as she nodded. "what I find fun most people don't"

"Oh, gods." he groaned softly, "It's not kicking puppies, is it?"

Ashley dropped her jaw ans gasped playfully "oh darn who told you" she giggled then shook her head with a smile "no of course not, reading,baking, cleaning and homework are not really things a lot of people find fun but those are hardly things that involve 2 people sooooo how about a walk?" she asked softly her eyes wide and hopeful.

"Well, I have a pretty specific skill set, but I think I can handle a walk." he assured her with a little smile, scruffing up the back of his hair gently as he caught her eye & gave her a genuine smile instead of the small, half-hidden one.
"Have any favourite spots?" he let the words drip off of his tongue like honey, as if talking about a very different sort of thing.

Ashley cocked an eyebrow and shrugged grinning "I don't know really sometimes I just walk around and see where I end up you know?" she nodded and nudged him innocently " you up for it?"
