"Charliegh" Alexis's voice called out as she moved into the house, the workers toiling in the fields had told her the woman was inside. Gloves were unlaced and pulled off as she moved down the hall towards the nursery. A childs laughter rose, flowed like music out into the hallway, tugging a smile to her lips. Leaning in the doorway Alexis looked in on mother and daughter as the former pinned the latter against the cushions and mercilessly tickled her stomach
"stop.... mommy... stop please..." The dark haired child begged between squeals of delight as she fought to squirm away, tears staining her cheeks.
"Make me" Charliegh teased not letting up just yet, Although she did take a brief pause to allow her daughter to catch her breath.
"noooo mommmy" the little girl howled with laughter, head turning towards the door. Mulberry depths spotted Alexis. Ah ha rescue was at hand "Lexis save me"
It was charming how Darien always left the a off her name spoke it with a slight lisp and sweeping into the room as charliegh threw her a beaming smile. she bent and scooped the little girl away from her mothers grasp with one arm and swept up a cushion and thumped charliegh with with the other. "I pronouce the tickle monster slain" Tones of laughter spilled from her lips as she set darien down, watched charliegh fall back and play dead. "cooks waiting to give you lunch Darien run along I need to talk to mummy".
Charliegh raised a brow as Darien obediantly scurried off, giggles still coming in bursts. Leaning against a wall Alexis looked at Charliegh. "You know how you said you were considering leaving myrken" The question flowed from her lips far easier than she expected it to, infact she barely waited for charlieghs cautious nod before continuing "Well i have a proposal for you" ...
