Reuniting Tornedalians

He smiled.

She smiled back.

He kept her smile.

She spoke quietly with a few others around them.

He watched her lovingly and adoringly.

She kept close to him as she mingled about a little.

He stayed nearby but let her talk and meet people. One group of people she came to, seemed to be a foreign covern, but they spoke the common tongue well enough, they hadn't seen Marie standing close, but they were definitely talking about her, and one of the guys seemed to be swooning.

She looked up at her husband when she heard them a small grin on her face as she took his hand in hers.

Elijah looked at her and he gently kissed her hand, to anyone else, he looked normal but Marie would have seen the protective edge in his eyes that all but screamed the word 'mine'.

She smiled warmly cupping his cheek with her free hand and pressing her lips to his humming a quiet, "Calm down, it's alright."

He kissed her back. "Can't blame me for being a little bit territorial."

"I don't blame you, love but I'm not going anywhere."

"I hould hope not." He told her.

"Yourr my one and only."

He smiled. "And you are mine."

She nodded kissing him again.

He kissed her back.

"See? Are you happy now?"

"Always am with you."

She smiled at him.

He smiled back.

She happily remained at his side the rest of the night keeping an eye in her family.

He remained with her and when it got too late to travel, the head of the party showed them to their own tent where they could get some sleep.

She focused on the family getting to bed before herself.

Christian was lounging in the bed of his and Michelle's tent.

Angel was curled up in her own bed in her tent, watching the ceiling, she was slightly tipsy and a bit giggly but other than that, fine. Alexander was staying in the tent with her.

Eric was in his own tent watching the ceiling.

Caleb was waiting for Laura by their tent just as Elijah was waiting for Marie.
