“Modesty should be my middle name, it would replace Matthew quite nicely.” He teased eyes meeting hers. “I haven’t forgotten yours though it has changed a bit over the years,” he paused, “not in a bad way.” He added quickly flashing her an awkward smile.
“Unfortunately is an interesting choice of words.” He laughed with her reveling in the peace the moment brought with it. “I would have loved for him to be my brother, I even tried to steal him once.” He shook his head. “I don’t think it’s bad at all. Emma is a very pretty name and it suits you well.”
He took a moment spinning her in a circle before speaking again. “If you really are as bad as you say you are, I might not be able to run at all. Though I very much like my not broken feet.” He teased.
" Zander Modesty Rye, has a nice ring to it, and you wouldn’t even have to change your initials.” She beamed at him. “ I would hope so, it’d be a bit sad if I looked the same as I did when I was a child. Imagine if that was a mutant ability, now that would be terrible.” Emma chuckled, biting down on her bottom lip. “ Thank you...I think.” she giggled.
“ What kind of younger sibling doesn’t say that about their older brother though? Guess he’s good for cooking a good meal though, and a few other things, just don’t tell him I said that or I’ll deny it all..” she shook her head, playfulness evident in each word. “ Guess so, but you have Harper, Piper and Liam...then just Emma, doesn’t seem that great in comparison..” the name Piper was whispered, almost inaudible in comparison to the others.
“ Don’t doubt my skills to fail miserably,” she insisted, laughing effortlessly as she was spun around, palms pressing up against his chest as she came back, feet stumbling some.
