Going to the mall during the busy hours probably hadn't been the best of ideas, Ford thought as his wife and him were making their way through the crowds, bumping shoulders with passerby's ever so often. He was mainly just annoyed, but he worried about her. Crowds and Darcy had never been the best of combination. Though as far as he could tell, she was holding up okay. Comparing her now to the woman he had first met was like comparing night and day.

Still, they had some shopping to get done, shopping they had been putting off for long enough already. And it had to be now, if they wanted to get home to have dinner at any sort of suitable hour, and go out stargazing later in the evening like he had promised her they would. It wasn't often that he agreed to go out and do that with her, so now that he had promised he wanted to keep that promise.

But it was still crowded. And loud. And annoying and frustrating and full of idiots and... And crowded.

Okay, she was fully on board with this. She had no idea how this suddenly became their new dream but it sounded amazing at this point. They could use something like that. A getaway where no one would bother them, but close enough where they could head Ito town. "I like this," she agreed.

"So do I." More than he'd thought he would. He wasn't sure he wanted that for a permanent thing, a full-time thing, but... It felt like it was exactly what they needed.

She didn't know when this could be something she could do. They could get the best of both worlds. They an still be around her sister and Francis. It meant that they would have whatever they needed when it came to being home and still being able to relax.

"Hmm," she thought, trying to imagine where they could go.

The silence settled again, thick but comfortable. There was nothing that needed doing, the two of them partially lost in their own thoughts while just sharing the moment.
