Hearing the reasoning behind their going to two islands, Lyra just rolled her eyes and laughed a little. "Did I ever tell you that your family has too much money? I mean honestly, do you ever go home during the holidays are are you just rich nomads?"

She blushed a little darker as he reached over her collarbone and ignored the desire to lean back against him a little. "And you're right, just because I dont usually doesn't mean I don't ever, but I also have to ask what makes you so certain that I want to go with you?"
