"Yeah... Plus, if they can think freely, they work together much better, which will be important for their futures," Alice said with a smile, nodding. "The school wanted dinosaurs, since this is to attract new students and the young age group has a huge interest in things like dinosaurs, so if the kids like it, the school hopes for the parents to like it." She grinned slightly, ready to explain the cat, but she froze, her expression falling when she saw her ex, Ethan, making his way over. "I'll be right back," she promised Rosie quietly before she straightened and made her way over to Ethan, "What are you doing here?"
"It's a community event," Ethan reminded her easily, smirking as he watched her, "And since it's public, it's probably the only way you'll actually talk to me. It's working so far."
"I don't want to talk to you, Ethan, so please leave," Alice pleaded quietly, hoping that he'd see reason.
Instead, though, his eyes narrowed and he reached for her arm, gripping it tightly and hard, enough to make it hurt, causing Alice to cringe. "Now, Alice, we're in the middle of a very important event with all your precious students," he reminded, "You wouldn't want me to make a scene, would you?"
Sam groaned as he began to stir with his brother's voice and scrubbed a hand across his face. "Already?" he asked, "I feel like we only just closed our eyes." Yawning, he peered behind him, only to blink at the fact that Rosie wasn't there. He didn't let himself get immediately worried - they were in the middle of a school parking lot, what was the worst that could happen? Looking towards the school, he figured she probably already headed inside and he climbed out of the car, closing the door behind him. "Let's go. I'm gonna go find Rosie." He grinned to himself before heading inside.
