Happy Independence Day - RP for [livejournal.com profile] vivo_per_ardua

Flack pulled the car to a stop outside of the overlook at Watchung Rock, before pushing the door open and stretching his legs. It wasn't a log drive, but it's longer than he's used to driving, and he was ready to just sit outside and watch the fireworks. It was slowly starting to get darker, and he just loved the view from this side of the Hudson. You could see the lights of the buildings in the skyline stand out against the slowly darkening sky, and it was nice to see his city from a different angle.

He turned back to the car, and gave Anna a grin, before pointing over towards the rocks. "There should be a place to sit over that way."

"This is beautiful, Don. Have you ever seen anything more beautiful?" She stared in awe at the fireworks, setting her glass aside as she shifted to rest her head against his shoulder and place her hand next to his.

"I can see why. I'm sure past girlfriends agree, no?" She shifted, starting to shiver a little.

"Understandable. It's nice not to work on the holiday. I've actually missed this." She shivered visibly, hugging her knees to her chest as she watched the fireworks. This meant a lot to her. She wasn't sure he knew it, but that was okay. The last thing she wanted to be was overbearing or emotional or anything less than the woman he first met. So in order to (hopefully) achieve that honeymoon period he'd talked about, she was just going to have to sit back and let go.

She looked at the blanket, confused. "I'm not cold. At least, I don't think I am." She answered blankly. Her mind was beginning to wander, as it usually did around this time of year. She hated that. Especially now. As she snapped out of her train of thought, the shivering stopped.
