"So, where should we go first?" Azael asked, looking at her. "Anywhere you want."
Arista thought for a moment, glancing at the shops around them.
"Well, since it's still morning..." She tilted her head slightly. "How about coffee? And maybe a pastry with it. It's been a while since I've had time to sit down and enjoy one properly."
Azael looked at her. "You really have been too busy lately."
"Yeah because of the duty that comes with having territory."
"Not today, it doesn't..." He squeezed her hand once. "Today you relax. No responsibilities now. No duties. Nothing. Just enjoying our day together."
She smiled at that. Something in her shoulders visibly loosened. She felt comfortable beside him.
"Then let's get coffee," she said. "I know exactly the right place."
"Lead the way." He said with sift smile.
She did it. She guided him through the gradually filling street, weaving between the early morning crowd with the ease of someone who knew these roads well.
