Hiding behind his words | Closed

Carly turned to face him as he came out, chuckling softly. "they look lovely on you" she told him, standing up on her toes to give him a kiss as she looked over him. It felt weird seeing him out of a suit, but she liked it... It felt a little more casual. "Will we get going?" She asked him.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin blushed and smiled at her, "thanks, I should consider wearing more casual clothes, more often," he said softly. He held onto her hand lightly, "yes lets go for a walk," he said softly. He lent in and kissed her cheek gently, "you look lovely also my love," he said softly.

@ Aoibhe

Carly smiled softly, giving his hand a little squeeze. "Thank you" she told him as she let him lead her out of the house, not knowing anything about the area that they were in. "So how did you find yourself here? Do you have ties to the place?" She asked him.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin smiled walking with her, he had decided to take her on a walk around one of the trails here, rather than the town. He paused for a moment, "well one of my grandparents used to live here, and I'd visit occasionally, and I knew it was a good place to get lost from the world in," he admitted. He slipped his arm around her waist lightly, "thank you for visiting," he said.

@ Aoibhe

Carly nodded happily, letting her head rest against his shoulder as the walked. "That's a nice tie to have to the place... And your right, it definitely is a place to forget the rest of the world" she commented with a smile. "You don't need to thank me Ben, it's my pleasure. I'm just sad I have to leave so soon" she told him with a sigh. "You'll still write though, won't you? And call?" She asked.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin grinned and held her close, as he kept walking with her. He kissed her cheek, "yeah, it is, sadly they're not around anymore though," he admitted. He looked at her, "Of course I'll still write, and you can call me when you need to talk," he told her. "What will you do, when you get home?" he asked her.

@ Aoibhe

I have to get everything ready to go back to work-life I'm not excited about. I have to meet my friends too, I'm imagining they must be getting worried, I kind of disappeared without telling anyone I was going"

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin frowned softly, "well that is a little stink, hopefully your work will be okay," he said softly. He pulled her close, as they reached the peak of the trail he'd been leading her on. "I'm sure your friends will forgive you," he said softly.

@ Aoibhe

Carly smiled gently as she felt him pull her close. She let herself rest against him, her eyes closing momentarily as she savoured the moment. 'it will be fine.. anything that happens will have been worth it" she said gently, before looking up at him. It had felt nice to come and see him and switch off from the world, she wasn't even sure where her phone was. She was starting to understand how he could lose himself in his work out here, but she didn't think she could do it alone like he did.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin smiled and kissed her forehead, "agreed," he whispered. He pulled back slightly, 'I suppose we should head back, we don't want you missing the train," he said with a hint of sadness. He took her hand, "I promise I'll visit soon," he said.

@ Aoibhe

Carly nodded gently, the happiness that had lit up her eyes beginning to falter as she realised she really did have to leave him. She found her feet dragging as they walked back, her hand tightening in his as she glanced around at their surroundings. "I hope you promise- your the millionaire author- train fares aren't cheap!" She teased gently, letting her eyes wander up to his face again.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin chuckled weakly, "of course I promise," he said softly. He held her hand tightly, "I'll let you know when, in our first correspondance after you have returned home," he said softly. He hated that she had to leave, but she had to get back to work.

@ Aoibhe

Carly's smile picked up a little more when she remembered their letters and she nodded. "yes no problem, only come when it suits you.. I know you are t a huge fan of large cities" she told him kindly, amblingalo g slower and slower as his house came in to view in the distance, where she knew she had to grab her packed backs and leave him.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin nodded, "of course, but I am a big fan of spending time with you, so I can deal with the big city," he told her. He paused, and pulled her into a hug, "I am going to miss being able to do this, though," he said as he lent in and kissed her deeply.

@ Aoibhe

Carly smiled softly "well I'm glad I'm worth it then" she teased gently, letting her arms wrapped around him tightly as he pulled her in to a hug, taking in his distinct smell. "I'm going to miss that too... Maybe it could inspire another exceprt" she teased lightly before her hands begin to roam his skin lightly as she kissed him again.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin blushed and nodded. "Definately, and now I know you love listening to me read so much, maybe I'll call you when it's done," he teased softly. He ran his hand down to her butt, and grabbed it lightly. "Come on, we better get going, before we end up in bed again, and you miss your train," he said.

@ Aoibhe

Carly smiled brightly, giving him a playful swat on the arm as he grabbed her butt before she made her way back to his house, her arm around his waist. She sighed softly as he joked about ending up in bed again. "Maybe it wouldn't be the worst" she mumbled, even though she knew she had to catch this train or she would be fired.

Once in the house she rounded up the last of her bits, making sure to put the manuscript Benjamin had given her carefully in to her handbag. "Please write soon... Or call if you feel like it" she told him softly, a soft glint in her eye as they spoke.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin walked with her, he was sad that she had to leave so soon, but knew she had work. He smiled and nodded, helping her pack away her things. "I will call you later tonight, just to check in," he said softly. He hugged her tightly, "I miss you already, and you are still here," he said softly.

@ Aoibhe

Carly hugged him back tightly as she nodded, nestiling her head against his chest. "I miss you too... you're all I'm going to think about until I see you again, I hope you know that" she added with a soft smile, not even daring to kiss him, because she knew she wouldn't let go. "At least this gives me an excuse to buy a new baby doll for next time" she teased gently toy, before grabbing her things to go.

Oncson the way home in the train, Carly took an artsy snap out the train window and posted it on her Twitter, with a quote from on of his first books attached before she sttled in to read the new manuscript.

@ A Drop On the Window

Benjamin hugged her tightly, and blushed deeply when she mentioned buying a new baby doll. He looked at her, "I prefer you wearing nothing," he teased. He hugged her and said goodbye.

Once she'd left he sighed, and moved back to working on his new book. He was finding it so hard to think of anything but her. Everything he wrote kept morphing into another love letter to her.
