Me: I think we should take a boat to Paris.
Selene: I'm not sure that's such a good idea.
Michael: Why wouldn't it be? Selene, it's where we met. It's most likely safer there than it is in America. We'll go to Paris.
The next day we get to a pier and get onto a boat that was for rent. Michael pays the man the rental for two days. I sit down on a seat to the side and look around at my surroundings. Selene sits beside me. "What's wrong, Liz?" She asked a little concerned.
"Nothing. I'm just looking around. The view is beautiful." I said looking at her.
She smiled. "Yes it is." She said looking around herself.
After a few moments of silence, Michael decided to break it. "Selene, can you take over for a couple minutes?" He asked.
Selene got up and took the wheel. Michael got a bag of blood and sat down. "Daddy, can you hand me my bag please?" I asked just before he started eating. He handed it to me. "Thank you."
He half smiled in understanding. "What did you want it for?"
I finally pulled out my colored pencils and some blank paper and started to draw Selene driving the boat. "You like to draw?" He asked.
I nodded and smiled showing him my picture. "I'm drawing Mommy driving the boat." I said and then continued.
When I finished, Michael had finished eating and switched with Selene again. I smiled and handed her the picture. "This is for you, Mommy."
"Thank you, Baby." She said looking at it. "It's absolutely beautiful. I love it." She said and side hugged me.
"You're welcome." I said happily.
Selene smiled. "Come here, Princess." She said putting me in her lap.
I leaned back against her and started drawing again. "This one's for Daddy." I said.
She stroked my hair and kissed my cheek. "He's gonna love it when he sees it finished." She said and started helping me.
Michael looked back at us a few minutes into it and smiled. He started thinking about how lucky he is and went back to watching where he was driving.
We got to Pier 54 in Paris two days later and Michael picked me up to carry me. After about six hours of running, we came upon a safe house. We went in and Michael set me down. I looked around and started to explore the place.
"Gather some extra ammunition and blood. I'm gonna go look for some lights." Selene said to Michael.
I wandered into the basement and ran into something furry. I screamed. Selene came running and turned on the light. "Elizabeth."
I ran into her arms. She picked me up and kissed my forehead. "What is it, Hunny?" She asked.
"Lycans." I said pointing the direction from which I came.
She walked over and saw what I meant. "Oh, Hunny, they won't hurt you. They've been given a poison and a serum so they could be studied. They can't hurt you." She said putting me down again.
"Can we go outside and play?" I asked looking at her hopeful.
"For a little while. Come on." She said pulling me along.
We got outside and I tagged her. "Tag! You're it!" I squealed and ran.
Selene ran at human speed to make it fair. I ran around the house to the back and she chased me. She caught up to me three minutes later and tagged me. "Tag. YOU'RE it." She said and ran the opposite direction.
I chased her. "I'm gonna get you, Mommy!" I said chasing her close behind.
She slowed down out of breath after ten minutes and I tagged her again. "You finally got me." She laughed picking me up and laying on her back on the ground.
I squealed and laughed with her. Michael came out an laughed when he saw us. "What on earth are you two doing?"
"Mommy and I played tag." I said.
Michael chuckled. "Who won?"
Selene giggled and stood up holding me. "She did." She said walking up and pecking him on the lips.
I yawned and layed my head on Selene's shoulder. "You tired, Baby?" She asked looking at me.
I nod and close my eyes.
