Who? Darcy & Ashley
Where? The park on wheel 3
When? Friday afternoon
What? A riding lesson
Open? No
Rating? Ummm plenty of sexual tension? And excessive touching? TBC.

Darcy really was looking forward to seeing Ashley again. After the strange onesies and ice cream event, he had quite deliberately given her a little bit of space to be with her family and grieve. He was always just a call away, and he had checked in with her every evening, just to let her know that she wasn't alone. He would have dropped everything and anything in a heartbeat if she had suddenly needed him.

As it was, she was stronger than she gave herself credit for. He was happy to provide something of a merry distraction for the afternoon. From his own experiences with grief, he knew that there was only so much time one could spend locked away indoors before the sorrow threatened to drown you.

He had headed down a little early to kit Annie out for the lesson, make sure she was well and happy, and let her have a wander about the park with minimal supervision to get that need for independence out her system a little. As for himself, he was also kitted out for riding, complete with a top hat that had successfully dried out and retained its shape after his dunk in the lake a month earlier.

“I’m not really sure how stripping in the park is meant to make me feel any less ridiculous,” he told her, his voice pitching st the end of the sentence. He looked at her for a moment, as if trying to second guess her, and then he almost sulkily started to undo his jacket.

“You really are quite insufferable, you know,” he told her, although his tone suggested she was anything but. “Between this and flag onesies...” he finished with the jacket, and shrugged it off to toss aside. “Amuse yourself, dear, this could take a while,” he joked a little. So many bloody layers.

	"I know. I'm terrible." She grinned at him. The jacket came off and somehow she didn't realize how many layers there actually were. "How are you not dying under all that?" She got hot with just a shirt and a jacket. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Darcy shrugged a little as he worked at the buttons of his waistcoat. “There is no direct sunlight, at least?” he joked a little. “I’m used to it.” He was soon able to get the waistcoat off, and he started to untie the material around his neck. He was feeling rather exposed. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Still had to be horrible during the summer." She shook her head. She'd never have made it. And they didn't have air conditioning either. "Once you're down to your shirt, I want you to lie on your stomach on the blanket." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's called a massage." She said softly as she kept working on his shoulders. It didn't help everyone. This was really just an experiment to see if she could help him relax. She started to slowly work her way down his back, working her thumbs into the tense muscles. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
