Marcus smiled at his daughter's geeky comment. "Aye aye lieutenant", he said turning on the car and backing out of their driveway. The weather was nice enough with very few clouds in the blue sky. It was a smooth drive, seeing as how most people were at work, the roads were practically empty. The drive wasn't terribly long but it did give them a few minutes to themselves. "so, I hope you're looking forward to the Carribean tomorrow", he said smiling. It'd been far too long since they'd been alone together and he was having trouble thinking of what to talk about.<br/><br/>All of a sudden Marcus gave her a sly look, "I hope you and Sam are getting along okay", he knew that they were all aware but talking about it wasn't the usual. He laughed slightly and pulled into the parking lot for the mall, being where he could pick up all he needed. "So, I'm thinking we should get the luggage then the liquor. And if you're hungry you and I can get some food", he said getting a good parking spot and getting out. It was nicely cool outside, with a gentle breeze being persistant.<br/><br/>He wrapped his arm around her waist and walked with her. Smiling at having Nessa with him. There were practically no other cars in the parking lot so he was at the front and walked with her into the, mostly empty, mall. "hmm, this place is pretty nice when it isn't crowded", he said enjoying the nice AC that hit him when the door opened.
