"That's cheating," she murmurs playfully, although it might be cheaper than having to actually travel. However, she's a little more distracted by what he says next, as he confirms he doesn't want to hide anymore, that they don't have to.
She smiles up at him. "I do," she confirms, she wants to be with him. "I never stopped wanting to be with you." Her smile turns a little impish. "But I hope you know, I'm going to take about, like, a bajillion pictures of us together."
He can't help the roll of his eyes, even as he chuckles gently, still stroking her cheek as he does. He's never been one to have much of a presence on social media in any way - especially not with the job he used to have, and how much he wanted to keep his anonymity. But none of it matters anymore.
"Yeah, I gathered you'd be trying to make up for lost time."
"Don't act like you don't love me," she teased him with a smirk, moving to tug him down for another kiss, whispering against his lips. "I promise I won't post too many."
He almost retorts something about loving her, not loving her need to post her life out on social media, but he doesn't really want to argue with her right now, not when things might actually get back to being good. To being back to what he wants them to be.
"I love you," he says instead, hands in her hair, tilting her head towards his. "I really, really do."
Feels like an obvious destination, but he's never been, despite being so close to the mainland and having spent many days in Portugal. And if they are to take a proper gap year, culture is absolutely necessary.
"Only if we get to go to Óbidos after." That had been her plan first, to go to Óbidos then decide from there. But Lisbon was an easy space to get to, one that made sense.
"Speaking of after... do you have any plans later?" Her father and brother are somewhere around here and she has to wonder if its a good idea for him to meet them or not yet.
"Well, my dad's here so I kind of have to go see him off but later..." She waggles her eyes at him for a moment. "Unless you're feeling keen about meeting my dad right now." Which she's not exactly all about at the moment. There would be a time for that, down the road. But maybe not right now, all things considered.

Because when he thought of later, he thought of time alone with Charlie, not exactly meeting up with the in-laws...
