Chapter 16 : Isn't all just games and fun.
Connor collapsed immediately the elevator doors closed and began laughing. He scooted over to Aurora who was back to her usually calm self and hugged her, " Do you know how much I love you Ora? thank you ".
Aurora sighed as she hugged him back, " It's the least I can do after taking your book ". Connor suddenly pulled away, looking serious " My what "? Aurora shyly held up the book, " This one ".
Connor's good mood had already been ruined but Aurora suddenly opened the book, pointing at what Iris wrote, " But she signed it and even left me her address ". Connor smiled again, suddenly picking her up " Aren't you amazing? just like your Uncle Dallas. Let's get something to celebrate ".
Connor didn't wander too far and just went to the far side of the room where the lounge was located. Ian laughed, " I've never seen him like that ". Dallas nodded as he sat back down, " Yeah, his a really big fan of hers ".
Ian nodded, " Who is she? I mean the one who just left ". Dallas shrugged, " She's the one writing the speech ". Ian nodded, rubbing his chin " She's cute ". Dallas frowned, " She's got two kids ".
Ian didn't seem bothered by it, " She's not your kid right "? Dallas frowned even deeper as he slapped his head, " Of course not, why would you think that "? Ian laughed, rubbing the spot " Just checking and the picture earlier was kind of disturbing ".
Dallas sighed, rubbing his temples " What picture "? Ian sighed, " The one with that lady, you were even smiling ". Dallas couldn't help bit smile at the thought of Felicity and Ian pointed at his mouth, " See, you're doing it again ".

Iris gave Felicity a high five in the elevator, " That was amazing City. You even got me a souvenir ". The more she thought of Dallas, the more she wanted to create a character based on him and it must have been obvious.
Felicity clapped Iris' cheeks speaking seriously, " Don't even think about it. You're not ruining another country for us ". Iris frowned slightly, " I thought you enjoyed traveling around the world with mommy ".
Felicity rolled her eyes, " Not every four months and someone's always chasing after you ". Iris laughed, " Who doesn't love the thrill of the chase "? Rachel finally intervened, pulling Iris' ear " That's why you're insane, life isn't some game you can play without thinking of the consequences Iris ".
Iris nodded, removing her face from Felicity's grip and smiled " Do you really think I don't know that "? Rachel was surprised by the sudden seriousness of Iris' tone but before she could apologize for her brainless comment, they reached the ground floor.
Iris put on her jacket and strolled out. Felicity who was still being carried made a long u sound as she watched Iris leave, " You done gone ruined her mood Aunty Ray. Fix it ". Rachel sighed, " I know City, I just wish I'd never said that in the first place ".
