ย ย ย ย ย ย ย at the sound of the word BEAUTIFUL, rosalie giggled charmingly as if she had been born for that sort of game. at that point, if cullenโs eyes had any ability to, they would have certainly drilled a hole on the middle of rosalieโs face. she didnโt care. in fact, she felt like d a n c i n g. it was the sort of perfect situation that couldnโt have been planned at all.
ย ย ย ย ย ย โ see, cullen? iโm excellent hands. โ gorgeous hands, indeed.ย โ you have NOTHING to worry about. you can go attend to your chores now. iโll look for you when iโm done. โ she took her escourtโs arm and walked away from the commander before he could even think of stopping her. lucky for rosalie, cullen was too busy letting his jaw drop to the floor to actually do anything or say any words.ย
ย ย ย ย ย ย whoever that man, nikolaus, was, she already liked him. not only because of his manners and his looks, but because he was also bold, and didnโt hesitate one bit before taking rosalie from her brotherโs grasp and being adorably CHEEKY about it all.ย โ nikolaus pentaghast. โ she tested the name and enjoyed how the sound rolled off her tongue.ย โ thatโs familiar. oh! are you related to the seeker? โ as they walked, rosalie softly guided their way towards the garden. it was her favorite place in skyhold, especially since she had been allowed to tend to it and make it pretty.
now how can a man NOTย grin when a woman as beautifulย as she was upon his arm. truly, luck was on his side. as it has seemed to take hold of his life -- not that he would complain. luck has brought him a purpose after all -- and the ever lovely rosalie...ย
he chuckles at the bounce in her step, head turning to gaze upon the blonde with a smile, the question of his name -- of the familyย heโs never known. the chuckle, though warm, is forced -- still attempting to accept the fact that heโs a stranger to his own name -- to the attributes he wore, so similar to that of the otherโs.ย โ i suppose so -- yes. โ he agrees, azure stare lowering, as if to avoid her questions -- ones he wasnโt quite prepared to answer. โ -- but she wonโt agree to it. not yet.ย โ
hand gently rests upon her own -- patting flesh gently as their path continued beneath her feet, a soft silence settling between them. throat clears and gaze lifts, forcing a smile upon his lips. โ but is that why youโve CHARMEDย me so, lady rosalie? to hear of my family?ย โ nikolas returns to their previous banter -- teasing and flirts, enough to bring the joys of smiles and blushes back to their cheeks.ย
