Alicia stands outside, watching Sofia wandering through the snow, a twin holding onto each hand. She giggles and looks down at Andre. "Snow day," she says cheerfully. "What do you want to do?"
"Snowman?" he asks her, blinking some snowflakes off of his eyelashes.
"Yes!" she says, building a snowball slowly. She's in the process of making it even bigger when something wet and cold impacts between her shoulderblades. She gasps and stands up straight, turning to find Ricardo gazing at her with an mischievous glint in his eye. "You!" she exclaims, hoisting up her snowball and rocketing it at him.
"Gah!" he cries out, driving into the snow to avoid getting pelted with the monster snowball. "Holy crap," he mumbles into the ground before he slowly sits up, shaking his hair desperately. "Oh it's on now," he says, scooping up more snow and starting to chase Alicia.
She squeals and laughs, careful not to slam into Andre as she dashes away from Ricardo. They take turns throwing snowballs at each other, running in wide circles away from the kids and Sofia. "I swear if you hit me-" Alicia yelps as fresh snow rains down over her head, dripping under her clothes and leaving her squirming. "Oh my god-"
Ricardo laughs at her, just to get tripped and fall face first into another pile of snow. He sits up slowly, blinking the fresh white powder out of his eyes, casting a bemused look at her.
She blinks, staring down at him. "Uh. Sorry?"
He grabs her by the leg and draws her down to lay next to him, dumping more snow over her head, causing her to squeal again. "You-!" she cries, pushing him back down into the snow as well. They playfully begin to wrestle in the snow, Ricardo chuckling as she pours snow over his face.
He taps after a few moments and she settles back on her heels, breathing deeply. "Ridiculous," she mumbles when he doesn't move to sit up, brushing some of the snow off of his face so he can breathe. "You are ridiculous," she repeats for his benefit, leaning in to press a kiss to his freezing lips. "Let's get the kids and go inside, I want hot chocolate."
"Yes, please," he groans, pulling himself to his feet and helping her up as well. They dust each other off before winking at each other and heading off to collect the kids and Sofia to go inside and get warm.
