A slow smile crossed her lips, exposing her dimples as her grey eyes traced his features. "I absolutely adore you," she said quietly.
He watched her, tilting his head slightly and he leaned to kiss the tip of her nose. "I adore you as well."
Her eyes fluttered when he kissed her, and her smile deepened, her hand coming up to rest on the side of his jaw. "You're so handsome, Francis," she said quietly. "I mean, you're so many other things, of course... but you're really, really handsome."
He flushed slightly, a small chuckle escaping his throat. "I feel like you're the only one who can get a reaction out of me by saying that."
She laughed slightly, turning to face him, resting her forehead on his cheekbone, her nose brushing his cheek. "It's a position I'm glad to hold."
She closed her eyes, turning her face into his neck, her curls tickling his skin. "How do you think the kids are doing?"
