WHO: Mary Crawley & Howard Stark
WHEN: Monday, Oct 2nd
WHERE: Holodeck simulation of Downton
SUMMARY: It's a date where Mary shows Howard her home, they have a picnic and he takes her up in his airplane... possibly not in that order.
WARNINGS: Flirting and kissing are probably givens. I'll edit if there's anything else.

Mary was excited to show Howard her family home as it existed in the holodeck. The weather inside the simulation had been updated to reflect fall, which was always a beautiful season at Downton. The air would be crisp, so Mary wore a light coat and a hat. She had packed them a picnic lunch from the mess hall to have on the lawn, complete with sandwiches, a few of Max's cupcakes and some wine. All in all she hoped that it would be a nice day. Even if she and Howard couldn't really go anywhere on dates, with the holodeck they could technically go anywhere. It made her want to see what other exotic places they could cook up.

Howard, lover of surprises, told her that he had tweaked the program a bit before they got there. That left Mary feeling a bit confused, because what could he have to tweak about a place that he had never seen before? It all made sense when they entered the simulation and Mary noticed the two seater prop plane sitting on Downton's front lawn. "Is that yours?" she asked with a grin. Probably a silly question.

Mary was enthralled by the plane, while Howard was surely looking at the huge house that loomed before both of them.

In response, Mary grabbed the lapel of his jacket and pulled him in for a real kiss. As much as she hated to admit that sort of "defeat", she wanted to feel his lips against hers. At this point, their relationship went beyond teasing anyway. Howard was pretty aware of how much Mary enjoyed his advances.

"That sounds like an excellent idea." She took one of his hands off of her backside so that she could lead him up the stairs.

About a half hour later they came back down, Mary looking a bit disheveled, but giggling as he chased her back outside. She felt like a teenager - a good feeling for a woman her age. As usual, the sky was blue and the weather was beautiful outside her home and Mary felt content and refreshed. She turned to Howard, who was just behind her. "Are you ready to take me up in the sky?"
