At her first question, he tensed more, the muscle in his jaw twitching. He didn't like to lie to Michelle. In fact, he couldn't recall a specific incident of doing such a thing. At least not any sort of lie that was large enough to remember. She saved him from having to do such a thing when her next question came on the heels of the first. This was something he could answer without any problem.

"Yes. I don't want to leave you and Benji alone. I'd miss you both." That he followed with a kiss, his tension melting as he pulled her against him. Not until he decided she was properly kissed did he break contact and smile down at his wife. "How long we got before the little one is demanding all your attention again?" Not that he didn't know. They had at least another hour. Not waiting on her reply, he was leading her down to the water and then scooping her off her feet, ignoring her shouts and giving her a thorough dunking into the salty water.

After much laughter, kissing and some arguing later, he was laying down on a towel and watching the sky. "We should just stay here. For always. Forget about work and family and life. You, me and Benji can become Gypsies."
