Will has a bouquet of wildflowers and is standing at Molly's door, he knocked once and now waits.

There are deep lines of worry on his face and his eyes look old, he's afraid waiting through the night has ruined his chances.

So now he waits and hopes being here and remembering will be a good start though if she tells him to leave he will.

The door is opened to reveal a smiling Molly. "Hi Will."

[will_scarlett]

Will bows, fully at the waist and hands her the flowers,

"I 'membered e'erythin' last night. Woulda come sooner but dinna wish ye to see me so 'urt. Forgive me for scarin' ye so an understand if ye wish naught to do with me."

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

And she throws her arms around him, hugging him tight. "Oh, thank god Will."

[will_scarlett]

He just hugs her back,

"I'm safe, Molly. Want to do somethin' for ye, since ye were so scared, but dinna know what."

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

She kisses him softly. "I'm sure you'll think of something."

[will_scarlett]

The kiss is returned with interest before he speaks again,

"Brought ye flowers an thought 'rhaps could take ye somewhere."

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

"To your home?" She's ignoring the flowers. Dead plants, eww.

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, if ye wish. Me door's there an things 'ave quieted down."

He's a guy, flowers seemed the thing to give.

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

She prefers chocolates. "Could we? A date?"

[will_scarlett]

"Aye, if ye'll wait a wee bit, think Lady Bar twill know what ye should wear."

Then there's a brief kiss and Will dissapears down the stairs. After a few moments he returns, Bar took the flowers back so he's just holding a box with instructions for how to put on the medieval outfit inside,

"'ere, 'ope this works, dinna real know what women wear, but she gave me this."

Molly dressed quickly, before joining Will back outside. Her hair is fully covered, thankfully. "It feels weird."

[will_scarlett]

He's not quite sure what to say at first since its so odd seeing Molly in clothes of his time and with her hair all covered,

"Ye look lovely just na like yerself, but tis safer this way."

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure- Tis?" She bites her lips. This might not work. "I'll just try and stay quiet, huh?"

[will_scarlett]

He just smiles at the try of his accent, "We'll make it work, least yer name twon't cause any questions an once we're out o'Nottingham, twillna be a worry."

Then he starts to head down the stairs holding her hand with a smile and a thoughtful look, thinking about where his door opens to and what will be safest.

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

She hurries along with him, hand clutched tight. "Anything I need to know?"

[will_scarlett]

"If ye see any lords, curtsy an dinna look at 'em, just keep tight to me 'and an we'll be safe."

They've reached the front door and Will turns to Molly with an older look in his eyes,

"Nottingham isna safe, but I'll keep ye safe."

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

"How do I know what a lord is?" She smiles, gripping his hand. "I trust you."

[will_scarlett]

"Just curtsy if I bow."

Will says with a smile then opens the door.

They enter a small home with two rooms, a main room with a bed in the corner and very bare, poverty is well known here since the only piece of luxury is the bed.

Lovely carvings wind and curl on the headboard though they've been worn down from time, its been cared for as much as possible.

Towards the front, a small stall can be seen and two male voices are bargaining as Will shuts the door behind them.

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

Quietly. "Where is this?" As she gazes around in wonderment.

[will_scarlett]

"Me 'ome,"

Will says with a whisper as he pulls some coins out of his purse and puts them inside a stone pot on the table before quietly walking to the other side of the house.

The conversation on the other side starts to die off and Will heads towards the stall, wanting to introduce Molly to his father.

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

She follows along nervously.

[will_scarlett]

Cuthbert Scarlett comes around the door before Will can get there and gives a small smile to his son as he checks for any new injuries. He looks smaller than Will, in his thirties but tired from a life that takes more than it gives, "'lo lad, who's the lass?"

Will just grins as he brings Molly forward, "Tis Molly Carpenter, Da."

Cuthbert takes another look at Molly and gives her a bow and a much realer smile especially as he notes the way Will and Molly are holding hands. "Pleasure to meet ye, lass, 'ope me lad's doin' right by ye."

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

She nods her head, eagerly. "He's been wonderful to me." And she blushes.

[will_scarlett]

Will's father just smiles at them especially at the blush and ruffles his son's hair, "Should let ye be then, yer mother's off gossipin' somewhere, Will, she'll be glad to know ye're doin' well."

Then gives a small bow to Molly saying, "Keep 'im safe for me, lass, 'e's the only one we've got."

Then heads back into the stall as Will blushes and kisses Molly's cheek, "Shall I show ye Nottingham, then, Molly?"

[gothymcgoth.livejournal.com]

She nods again, unable to speak. This is all so different!
