Once they got out of the city and onto the side road that led to Adrian's home it became pretty quiet and far less brighter than the city. Adrian could hear his dogs barking from a

softly, chuckling. He then began to rub his thumb along her knuckles slowly and gently until he once again heard Alex clear his throat and look at him from the mirror, giving him a reminding look. Reluctantly, he slowly let her hand go.

Adrian had found her curiosity about everything absolutely

she's going to be pleasantly surprised when they get to his home that's for sure. However he heard the impact of her hand and the glass and instinctively Adrian gently took that same hand she was just shaking and kissed along the area where she smacked it. "Glass and hands don't always mix." He said

Adrian had glanced at what she was pointing at, “those are skyscrapers and high-rise buildings.” He then moved his head slightly to see what she

Even Adrian's eyes had to adjust slightly to the change in scenery and lighting, but it was mostly due to the bright LED headlights from other cars. It always annoyed him,

It's how we get from one place to another quickly. There's different kinds of contraptions like this in all sorts of colors and sizes that you'll soon see.”

Adrian then silently observed Vada explore everything around her, it was quite cute to see her absolutely fascinated with things. “Leather

Once she asked what a bath was, Alex had an amused look on his face as did Adrian for a split second before he began to explain; “a bath is a way to wash away the day's dirt and to feel fresh and clean.” He paused for a moment, "it's like stepping into a river to wash yourself
