Louis rolled his eyes, but he was still smiling. "How am I supposed to do that?"

"Race me," Marius dared with a glitter in his wheat-golden eyes.

When the military folk are gone? Peter can hang out for a while if you want )

(Alright, sounds good! Mind starting?)

Np!)

Peter sighed slowly once all his authorities were gone. He quickly slid his red coat off his shoulders, to finally cool the nervous sweat off his arms and neck.

Jane looked worriedly at John. "I'm so sorry, I don't know what came over me to make me say such things…"

"Race me," Marius dared with a glitter in his wheat-golden eyes.

"Definitely. You're losing this one, mon ami." Louis gave a wolfish grin and rose to his feet.

Jane looked worriedly at John. "I'm so sorry, I don't know what came over me to make me say such things…"

He rubbed a hand across his face, "Simcoe has issues, Jane, but honestly what the hell? Why would you say that in front of the entire table?" John finally let his frustration pour.

"Race me," Marius dared with a glitter in his wheat-golden eyes.

"Definitely. You're losing this one, mon ami." Louis gave a wolfish grin and rose to his feet.

"Bet," Marius laughed, "I chase sheep all day long! You count us off,"

He rubbed a hand across his face, "Simcoe has issues, Jane, but honestly what the hell? Why would you say that in front of the entire table?" John finally let his frustration pour.

Jane stood frozen, unable to move from where she stood. "I'm sorry," she whispered, not looking him in the eye.

"You could've cost me my job," John exhaled harshly. He wiped his hair off his forehead, and headed towards his office with stiff limbs. He always went there to cool off or think things through.

"Race me," Marius dared with a glitter in his wheat-golden eyes.

"Definitely. You're losing this one, mon ami." Louis gave a wolfish grin and rose to his feet.

"Bet," Marius laughed, "I chase sheep all day long! You count us off,"

“Race back to the barn?” Louis walked over to Marius, standing in line with him.

"Yea," Marius grinned.

"Alright…." Louis cracked his knuckles. "Three… Two… One… Go!"

Marius burst off in a run. His skinny legs flew across the grass, bare feet sending cracked stalks of golden grass flying in his wake. His hair flew up behind him like a golden sail.

Louis tore after him, his strong legs powering him forward until he was running right next to the other man.

"You could've cost me my job," John exhaled harshly. He wiped his hair off his forehead, and headed towards his office with stiff limbs. He always went there to cool off or think things through.

Jane looked worriedly at Peter, who'd stood up at John's abrupt departure. "I'll check on him," he said softly, following his footsteps. Jane stood alone in the foyer with her thoughts. Sharp, painful memories slit through her vision.

John dropped himself in the desk chair, bringing his hands up to his face to rub in slow, reflective motions. He hated being upset towards her–but this.. it rubbed him the wrong way.

Louis tore after him, his strong legs powering him forward until he was running right next to the other man.

Marius exhaled a bout of heaving laughter, making his step falter.

Peter knocked on the doorframe. "John?"

Jane leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. Her breath began to come more and more rapidly.

"Yes?" The man replied, drawing a deep breath to soothe himself.

"Can I come in?" Peter asked, leaning against the frame.

Jane slid down the wall and tried desperately to catch her breath.

Louis tore after him, his strong legs powering him forward until he was running right next to the other man.

Marius exhaled a bout of heaving laughter, making his step falter.

Louis seized the chance and sped ahead, only by a few steps, but still by enough.

"Can I come in?" Peter asked, leaning against the frame.

Jane slid down the wall and tried desperately to catch her breath.

"Yeah, sure.." John grunted back.

Marius lurched, and grasped at Louis's sleeve, grinning widely.

"Can I come in?" Peter asked, leaning against the frame.

"Yeah, sure.." John grunted back.

Peter walked in and stood in front of John's desk. "You shouldn't be too hard on her, you know," he remarked, looking around the room.

"What do you expect from me?" John replied exasperatedly, "I'm one of the most accomodating husbands on this continent, and I'm not allowed to get upset once?" He gestured stiffly, cheeks getting flustered. "Some men beat their wives!"

Marius lurched, and grasped at Louis's sleeve, grinning widely.

"Hey!" he protested, stumbling a little and looking back in surprise.

Marius began to reply, but tripped and brought Louis down with him.

They both tumbled to the ground like young boys, the weight of Louis pulling them both into a slow roll until they came to a stop with Marius practically straddling his middle.
