Walking

[Ethan Marconnett]

Ethan saw indian style on the street and leaned against a shop. He rested his head back and closed his eyes in the sun. He took a deep sigh and looked around the streets. He saw a nearby girl who attracted his eye right away. He smiled as she approached her.

[Amalia Crowe]

Today was no different than any other day, as Mrs. Monroe had sent Amalia to do her bidding and run errands for her around the Port. "Pick up my new dress for the ball," She said. "Get that new set of quills Mr. Monroe ordered." She sighed as she looked once more at the list of errands in her hand, then refolded it an out it back in her pocket. She needed a moment for herself, and decided that she would wait to do the things on the list, even for a few moments. She smiled as she neared a stange man that she had not met before. "Hello," she greeted.

[Ethan Marconnett]

"Hello." Ethan stood up and looked at the girl while dusting himself off and wiping his hand before reaching out for hers. "My name is Ethan, and what is your name, beauty?" He smiled and lifter her hand to kiss it gently and let it down.

[Amalia Crowe]

Smiling slightly, Amalia offered her hand when he reached for it, and was taken a bit aback as his lips touched her hand. "Amalia," She said simply. "Pleasure." She looked at the handsome man before her, unable to identify him. She knew most of the people residing in Port Pearl, but this man was a stranger to her.

[Ethan Marconnett]

Noticing her unrecognation with him he said. "I just ventured here from a while away, darling. You would not recognize me..." He smiled widely at her. "What are you doing on this pleasant day? Shopping, I see? I will help you if you'd like."




(((is unregonation a word...? lmao....haha)))

[Amalia Crowe]

"I see," Amalia said, smiling and nodding in understanding. She looked at the few packages in her hand and then back up at Ethan. "Doing my godmother's bidding," She smiled. "I'm almost finished though. But thank you very much." She thought of the one last thing she had left to get.

((haha....erm...my brain isn't functioning at its best tonight. So lets say it is for the moment...lol))

[Ethan Marconnett]

(((lol alright)))


"Well...maybe if you'd like...when you are finished doing her biddings." He smiled shyly. "You would like to maybe hang out or take a walk with me down to the docks." He looked down for a moment and back into her eyes as his own twinkled. He laughed uncertainly thinking how ridiculous he sounded. That a girl this beautiful would want to go with someone like him. "Well...I mustn't hold you up..." He said quickly. "It was nice to have met you." He turned to walk away.

[Amalia Crowe]

((aww, he's so cute! -swoons-. hahaha))

Amalia looked at the packages once more. "Wait. I am almost finished. I simply have to get one more thing, and then I will be done." She knew she did not sound like herself, nor did she like the way she sounded, but she didnt want to let this intriging gentleman get away so easily. She walked over to him, smiling. "You are welcome to join me on my last errand, if you wish."

[Ethan Marconnett]

(((lol)))



Ethan looked at her and his eyes softened. she is so beautiful.... he thought to himself. He looked her once up and down and his cheeks burned. He took a deep breath. "Yes, of course I'll go with you..." He took the packages out of her arms to carry them for her then stood there smiling waiting for her to guide him.

[Amalia Crowe]

Amalia smiled. "That is, if you have nothing that I would be keeping you from." She was taken back yet again as he took the packages from her, as she had never really had a gentleman do that before. "Thank you, you didn't have to do that."

[Ethan Marconnett]

He grinned widely at her. "I mustn't let a woman waste her energy with large packages. And no i have nothing to do at the moment..." He said lightly. "Where do you need to go my lady?" He bowed to her playfully and laughed. His laugh was a bright and amusing laugh, one of a kind.

[Amalia Crowe]

Amalia laughed and shrugged at his comments about the packages. She could heft weights much more than those simple packages held. Still she was grateful, but yet did not want him to see her as being another one of the mindless women here at the Port. She took one of the packages from him, wanting to help. She laughed at his bow. "Well, I have to go across the street to the hardware store to pick up something for my godfather. Then after that, return home to deliver the packages" She thought for a moment. "Really sir, I am unlike many of the ladies here at Port Pearl. Though chivalry is appreciated, it is not necessary." She was referring to him following her as if here were a chaperone that she saw so many of the women at the port had.

[Ethan Marconnett]

Ethan laughed. "Don't worry. I don't judge you and I don't know many women at Port Pearl. I was raised to think of the ground that women walked on as gold. No matter what they look or act like, I treat them with respect and compassion. I choose to get to know them before i see them from the outside." He felt a little cheesy saying this in front of her. "Ill be taking that and i will have no excuses!" He said playfully taking the package back from her. "I will walk with you to the rest of the errands and then walk with you back to the house if you'd like..."

[Amalia Crowe]

Amalia laughed and threw her hands up in surrender. "As you wish," She smiled. She directed him across the street to the Hardware store. She opened the door for him, not wanting the packages to knock him over.

"Hello there Mrs. Bixby," Amalia said warmly to the plump woman behind the counter. "I'm here for Mr. Monroe's order." She waited patiently as the woman scurried to get a small package, then returned with it, giving Amalia a warm smile.

"Here you are dear. My Amalia, you are getting prettier by the day! I haven't see you around much lately.!" The woman looked to Ethan wide-eyed, then back to Amalia and winked, causing Amalia to blush slightly. She shook her head to dismiss any of the woman's notions.

"Oh, I keep myself occupied, getting into trouble and causing havoc." Amalia smiled, taking the package.

"Aye, a trouble-maker you are, dear. But a pleasant one at that." She smiled, and Amalia turned towards Ethan and towards the door.

((well.....we can either post at my place or just do it in here so we dont have to jump around before going to the dock, . Its up to you)))

[Ethan Marconnett]

(((haha we can just stay in here...its much less confusing )))


Ethan smiled at Amalia's blushing. His eye twinkled at her and then took the package she had. "Ok, just take them back to their house and then you are free!" he said happily. "We can just stay around here instead of the docks...docks are noisy and raggidy anyways...." He said playfully. "So...my lady...are you of any type of royalty because your beauty seems to fit perfectly." He said charmingly. "Incase you haven't noticed, I am a pirate...You may run screaming now...many do when they find out." He smiled at her hoping she would laugh and not look utterly disgusted. He showed her his ring from his father with difficulty from the packages.
