<strong>Rowena and the Major Tyler on Brighton Pier<br/></strong><br/>Rowena smiled slightly as she was greeted by the Major she did her best remain straight faced and serious at the compliment, she could not quite suppress her feelings however and tilted her head down to avoid showing just how much the compliment touched her.  Sighing slightly she glanced back up to him as he bowed before her she nodded politely to him and moved towards the bench.<em> “Thank you Major, you are very kind with your words as always and I might add you look very well turned out yourself Major.”</em>She took the opportunity to sit and glanced away once more looking out at the beaches and sea before turning back to the Major, as she smoothed out her dress  and placed her cane at her side.<br/><br/>She glanced down watching as the Major touched and took her hand she looked back to him with a warm smile as she spoke.<em> “The trip was pleasant enough Major some trouble to arrange but well worth it I believe, I hope you had a pleasant journey yourself.” </em>Rowena continued to listen to the Major as he spoke not wishing to interrupt him and glad of the pleasant distraction, company and surroundings, when he had finished speaking she nodded once more and place her free hand over his gently.<em>“You might be so bold Major, if you have the courage to face the opinion and nagging of my aunt of course.” </em>She chuckled slightly and smiled ever more warmly to him as she continued.<em>“I think we know that you do, why I was most impressed and flattered with how you handled her before.  I would love to hear your thoughts Major, I had not thought much to what we would do myself I confess I had simply hopped to walk with you and talk once more that itself seams delightful. It would be good to forget what has passed lately, although I did wish to share some thoughts and conversation with you on that matter at some point if you think it appropriate that is Major.” </em><br/>
