Here he was telling her that she was going to get into trouble one day, and she believed him because the next moment he was saying he'd kiss any bumps better and Mina couldn't help the sound she made. She had given her word that she was going to behave though, and behave she would, even if she was now clutching Bessie's reigns tightly to keep herself from trying to touch him, or herself, and making short work of what little willpower they had a precarious hold of when it came to one another.
To do things right. To do them proper, so they had the grace with one another that falling into bed immediately wouldn't give them. Mina had to keep reminding herself, that the wait would be worth it, he was worth waiting for, from everything she could tell. And the way he treated her, well, he treated her proper, like she was a lady. "[color=#2ecc40]One day? I was thinking today was going to be the day I got into a lot of trouble.[/color]" It was a tease, of course.
She was giggling by the end of it though, as she nodded, "[color=#2ecc40]I will not try and throw myself from the saddle just for the reward of having you kiss my ouches away. Even if that is remarkably tempting and I have little to no willpower not to do just that. You'll have to keep me in line I guess.[/color]"
"[color=#2ecc40]Guesses, a lot of water, I'm sure. Bigger than the pond in the field for the horses, that only comes to my waist, and it fills up with water every time it rains. But, I'm not sure how much bigger.[/color]" Her imagination wasn't equipped to think of water as far as the eye could see, it just didn't make sense to her, so her mind couldn't quite give her a picture of what to expect. "[color=#2ecc40]I do like the creek, and baths, and the pond, even if it does get a little muddy. Water is good after all, it's fun to play in.[/color]"
She grinned down at him, with those eyebrows of his, as she leaned down against Bessie's neck, so that her face was closer to his, and not so far above him. She didn't like it, he was the tall one, and she liked looking up at him. "[color=#2ecc40]If the water your favorite part? Or is there something you like better?[/color]"
