Akira watched and waited for Faeler as he picked up the box of lights. She admired the muscles in his arm as they flexed before smiling slighty "Yes, follow me!" She beamed before taking a long sip of wine and headed out to the garden. Once they reached the garden it was already decorated slightly, the small pavilion was lite up and lanterns where set up around the small pond that sat in the middle of the garden. The garden was surronded by trees so that's where they would hang the lights "Okay we just need a few strings of light set up on the trees strecthing across here, here, here, and there" She said while pointing to where she would like them

Faeler nodded, he put the box down and pulled out one string of lights, he grunted and walked over to one tree, he grabbed onto a branch and hauled himself up, hoping it wouldn't break, the last thing he wanted was to fall on his ass with Akira watching, Faeler climbed higher and wrapped the end of the light string around a high branch, he gathered the other end in his hand and aimed for a branch on the tree next to him, he drew in a breath and threw the lights, it landed neatly on the branch, Faeler allowed himself to smile,

Akira looked bac to make sure Faeler understood, she was about to tell him where a ladder was but stopped short seeing him climb into a tree "Oh lord Faeler please be careful" She said to him while walking over to the tree so if he did fall or drop somethign she was there. She watched him with a worried expression while he swung the lights to the next tree "Perfect" She said now with a pleased look on her face

Faeler looked down seeing her expression, "were you worried the barbaric prince would fall?, Oh poor Akira" he said then laughed, he jumped down and landed neatly beside Akira, Faeler walked over to the box, and grabbed another string of lights, and climbed the tree, repeating his actions

|
Akira nodded her head "Yes I am because I'd rather not see you fall and hurt yourself" She said a bit sternly. When Faeler jumped down frm the tree she held her breathe for a second and quickly exhaled as soon as he landed beside her. She followed him over to the next tree as he repeated what he was doing to put the lights up

Faeler jumped down again, landing beside her, he smiled "ok, ok" he said, the smile reached his eyes, he trudged over to the box again, he reached in and grabbed abother string of lights, "so, how fun are these party's usually?"

Akira once again held her breathe as Faeler jumped down from the tree. She exhaled and shook her head slowly with a small smile -loard he's is so going to give me a heart attack- She thought to herself before watching him "Well to me their boring... I mean at the beginning you have the dinner then after that it's just a bunch of chatter with small dancing, usually people trickle out during that. Then near 11pm it's our tradition for everyone to grab a partner and dance with the king and queen for whatever reason." She said before gliding over to a bench and sitting down "I usually don't participate in that though since I'd rather not dance with any of the princes and because I'm not the best at dancing"

Faeler chuckled, "I get you there, my feet are far to big to be of grace" he said, Faeler climbed yet another tree and repeated the throwing motion from before,
|
|
|
|

|
"I mean you did dance pretty good the other day so I don't see how you aren't graceful" Akira half joked with a chuckle while continuing to watch him

"Oh, you remember that?" He asked, Faeler turned his face away from her so she couldn't see his building blush, he fiddled with a leaf in the tree, then jumped down, he quickly made his way to the box and grasped another line of lights, "last one.." he said, and climbed the last unadorned tree
