Alice smiled happily "of course," she said and then proceeded to untie him. "And yes, you didn't really think I'd let you see me all dressed early did you? You'll just have to wait for me to get ready. I'm sure you can keep Kingsley company while us girls, and you can imagine me anytime you want, love." She giggled softly unable to help herself. "There all done, now go get undr... changed." She flushed a little but went to sit back down to wait for him.

Frank laughed once again. "I'm sure Kingsley and I will find something to do to keep ourselves occupied while you girls get ready. As long as Kingsley doesn't start flipping out on me, I think we'll be just fine." After Alice finished untieing his tie, he kissed her forhead. "Thanks dear. I'll try not to keep you too long." He gave her a wink and then disappeared behind the curtain to change clothes.
He hung his dress robes back up on the hangers and then he reappeared completely dressed and the dress robes in his hand. "I'm ready if you are Alice."

Alice smiled when he came out, he still looked cute she decided and chuckled to herself. "I'm ready. Where did you want to go next? I don't really have anything else I need, but I'm not ready to go back to the school yet." She walked with him to the counter so he could finish his purchase. She watched his face though.. she itched to fix a stray lock of hair that had had gotten messed up when he changed. Not because it needed to be fixed, but because it was an excuse to play with his hair. And finally she reached up and fixed it anyways unable to help herself.

"I don't know," said Frank. "I don't have anywhere special I need to go right this second. So it's up to you dear." He walked up to the counter with Alice and paid for his dress robes. Frank thanked the clerk and turned to Alice to tell her that they could leave, but he saw her hand go towards his face.
His eyes closed as Alice touched his hair. Her littlest touches were always nice. Frank opened his eyes slowly and smiled down at her. "Come on Alice. We'll find something to do."

Alice thought about where she wanted to go, "How about somewhere besides a store.. I really don't want to shop any more... maybe just somewhere to spend time together. What do you think? I haven't been to the observatory or the botanical gardens before, if you want that is." Alice smiled up at him, not really caring where they went or if they continued shopping. She really just wanted to spend some time with him.

"The observatory sounds like it would be a good place to visit," replied Frank. "And you know that I'll go anywhere for you." He took her arm as they walked out. Frank would go to the ends of the earth if she asked him.
He led her towards the observatory. He smiled as they entered. "I'm following you," he said to her.

Alice walked into the observatory and took his hand and dragged him eagerly towards one of the doors that was labeled 'telescopes' and grinned at him. "Close your eyes.." she whispered. She waited for him to close his eyes before walking him towards a different door. A small giggle escaped her lips and she opened the second door and pulled him towards her gently until they were in the center of the area. Then she reached out and kissed him under the star field above, "Open your eyes" she whispered against his lips.

Once again, Frank did as she asked and covered his eyes. "Don't run me into anything," he said laughing. He kept his free hand over his eyes. Frank squeezed her hand as she was leading him through the observatory.
He felt her stop, as did he, but she became closer to him. Hm. Kissing her with his eyes covered was nice, just like every other time. Once she said that he could open his eyes, his arms went immediately around her and pulled her in for a kiss. One of Frank's hands went to the back of her neck as he kissed her. He pulled away and then he smiled down at her before looking at the star field above, then back down to her.

Alice enjoyed the tender kiss he gave her and looked up at the stars when he did. She didn't notice him looking at her again though as she looked into the stars just held in Frank's protective arms. "I thought the planetarium sounded nice..." she trailed off softly looking at him then and realizing he'd been watching her. She blushed softly. She wondered what he was thinking.

"mmhmm," came Frank's response. "It is a nice idea." His hand was still at the back of her neck, and he moved it to her cheek. His thumb gently rubbed her cheek. Frank couldn't believe how beautiful she was, and it was apparent in his eyes. Alice never ceased to amaze him.
Right now, Frank was not worried about the stars. He was focused on Alice. "Care to dance," he asked her in a whisper.

Alice felt warm as she saw the look in his eyes, and she felt like the most special girl in the world at that moment. The look in his eyes making her forget to breathe for a moment. "I would love to dance with you, Frank." She spoke in a breathless and quiet voice.
She raised her arms up to his chest and then sliding across his shoulders so that she could hold him as they began to dance.

Frank put his hands on Alice's waist and flushed lightly. He began to move with her to no music. He didn't speak for a few moments as he looked down at her. There was nothing that seemed any more special than this moment. It was a moment to remember that was for sure.
He wasn't that bad when he danced for someone that never danced before. "I don't want to embarrass you while we dance in front of everyone else," he said finally. "And then of course, I'm going to have to refrain from this." Frank leaned in and kissed her gently. "I don't think it would be very formal if I did that during the first dance, do you?"

"mmm.. you're probably right. But I love when you kiss me anyways. Although this kind of dancing isn't until after the first dance anyways. Although you're not doing bad at this at all, as a matter of fact I could get used to this." She leaned up to kiss him again very softly.

"Oh, I'm already used to it," Frank said with a smile. He continued to dance with her and then he wrapped his arms around her lower back as he brought her closer. Frank rested his cheek against the side of her head. He closed his eyes as he continued to dance with her.
"You've got to come home with me whenever we go for Christmas break," he whispered in her ear. "I don't think I could go the whole break without seeing you." He lightly kissed the top of her ear.

"Home with you? To meet your family?" Alice had never met Frank's family and the thought seemed to startle her a bit. It was one thing to be in love, it was a new level however when you were introduced to the family. She wondered what he'd tell them, that she was a friend, a girlfriend, his love... ? And of course she wondered what they would think of her. She knew very little about his family, actually.
The thought of being away from him for a week however sounded dreadful, while being with him out of school for that week sounded wonderful. Meeting the family however, made her nervous and happy at the same time. That he loved her enough to take her home.

"Yes. Home with me and meet my family," said Frank. "They don't bite, I promise. Besides, my mum will be glad to finally meet you. I'm sure of it. You'll be just fine. I won't leave you alone if that will make you feel better." He pulled back for a moment to look at her. "You'll love them, and they'll love you. I promise you they will." He smiled at her.
The thought of Alice meeting his family was an excellent idea. He had a feeling that his mum would love Alice, and that of course was something he was going to look forward to. Frank could see himself with Alice for the rest of his life, and he figured that it was time to let her meet his family. What was a better time than Christmas?

"I would love to, Frank. I only get ignored when I am at my parent's home so I really have no reason to go back if I can go with you instead. I just hope you're right... tell me about your mother?" She'd never really asked before, but now seemed as good a time as any to find out about his family. She was worried of course that they wouldn't accept her. That they wouldn't be happy if they found out he loved her.

"Well, my mum keeps a baseball bat in her closet to run after people she doesn't like," began Frank. He started laughing. "I'm just kidding. She doesn't have a baseball bat. Honestly." He kissed her forehead.
"Anyway, my mum is nice and she can dress in ridiculous clothing sometimes, but I still love her all the same. When I was little, I used to be scared of her, but that was because she was trying to teach me right from wrong and how to use my wand after I first got it. Other than that, she is a pretty sweet lady. Her cooking is wonderful. I promise there will never be a day that you will go hungry with her cooking. She did say that she wanted a daughter before, but she was just as happy to have a son." Frank continued to move around the floor with Alice. "Overall, I think you'll like her. Just don't make faces behind her back because I swear that woman has eyes in the back of her head!"

"Well I think if I can handle a troll, I can handle a mom with a baseball bat." she chuckled softly, still enjoying the feel of him dancing with her and the ease of just being with him. "And I promise not to make faces at your mother, either behind her back or otherwise." she promised. She leaned up to kiss him again as they danced.

He knew that his mother would love Alice, just as much as she loved him. To him, Alice was perfect and his mother would probably see that too. Christmas Break was going to be pretty exciting.
As Alice kissed him, he stopped dancing and put his hand behind her neck as he dipped her back a little as he made the kiss more passionate. He brought her up slowly and then continued to dance with her with a light smile on his face.
