Holden grabbed the folder, "Ok, I don't have other questions." He said as he quickly scanned over the folder. He stood up, "I will have this returned tomorrow, and thank you for your time." He said with a smile as he extended his hand.

Marsha stood and shook his hand, "Don't feel rushed either though, the students are on an extended weekend. It will be a pleasure to have Amanda here."

Solomon gave a nod to Marsha, "Thank you very much Marsha." He led Holden back out to the car, "I hope Amanda doesn't feel..out of place.."

[Bovice]

Holden smiled as he followed Solomon. "She will be fine, she adapts very quickly." He said as he go into the car. "I'm surprised she didn't mention anything about you not wearing shoes." He said with a smile. "Can you take me to the closest dealership? I need to get a safer car for when Amanda starts school." Holden said as he kissed Solomon on the cheek.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon looked down, wiggling his toes, "I came by once without a shirt and she didn't care. She's very..odd..but she's amazing with kids." He got int he car, waited for Holden then drove off, "Of course, just make sure that it's not something extremely ugly..I will not have such a thing in my garage." He laughed, pulling into the lot, "Perhaps a nice Audi Quatro? They're very nice."

[Bovice]

They are but I was think more of a BMW Alpina, I mean Audi's are very safe but for some reason when I think safety I think BMW." Holden said with a smile. He sighed "I didn't tell you this, but when we were in the U.S. I applied to a few schools, and I got accepted into Slade School of Fine Art." He said with a little apprehension. "And I got into the Royal College of Art." He said looking up. "I don't know which one to go to they are both respectable schools, and technically both would be paid for because of my trust fund." Holden sighed closing his eyes.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon nodded stepping out of the car, "I don't know which school would be best..like you said, they're both very nice." He looked around for the BMW's, leading Holden over, "Perhaps Slade? I've seen a lot of their students' works in my galleries."

[Bovice]

Holden got out of the car, "I was thinking Slade to, I mean no offense to the RCA, but I am also interested in sculpture, and architecture. It's not just painting." He said with a smile. He put his arm around Solomon's waist, "What should my major be?" Holden asked as he put his head on Solomon's shoulder.

[Evil Tink]

He shrugged, "I don't know Holden, you have to decide that for yourself." He moved over to a blue BMW, "Just pick a car and lets go, I have no idea what my feet are touching right now." He really did not want to look down.

[Bovice]

"You can go if you want, I can drive the car off of the lot. I'm not gonna have it customized or anything." Holden said letting go of Solomon and looking around. He noticed a salesman, "Go I will be fine." He said with a smile as he gave Solomon a quick kiss on the lips. Holden went over to the salesman and waited until he wasn't busy.

[Evil Tink]

Solomon nodded, kissing him goodbye and hurrying ot his car. He sat inside for a moment. Dare he look down? Nope. He started the car and peeled off the lot, speeding through the streets back to his manor. He hurried inside and went to the bathroom, scrubbing off his feet with his eyes closed. From the smell, he had a feeling it was bird poop..fresh.

[Bovice]

Holden sighed as he signed the papers. He was thinking what major he should do, he wasn't paying much attention the the salesman.
"That is the last thing Mr. Evans." The man said with a smile.
"Thank you." He said slightly irritated with paperwork.
"Your welcome, now here is your keys and remotes." The man said handing Holden the two key sets.

"Ok." He said as he put the spare set in his jacket. "I'm gonna have to get a key box." He thought to himself.
"And here is my card, if you need anything just give me a call Mr. Evans." The man said as he stood up and extended his hand.
"Will do." He said standing up and shaking the mans hand with a fake smile.
"Have a nice day sir." The man said as he sat down.
Holden waved as he left the office. He got into the navy blue BMW he just bought. "Well it looks good, nice leather interior. Not much for automatic but I will survive." He said as he started the car. Holden peeled out of the lot and headed home. "God I hate salesmen."

[Evil Tink]

Once Solomon was all cleaned up, he finished getting dressed, opting for a purple vest and black tie this time. It had been awhile since he wore purple. He smiled, smoothing out his clothes before heading down just as Holden walked in the door, "You know, manual is not necessarily unsafe...if you really hate auto."

[Bovice]

"I don't hate auto, I just prefer manual." Holden said as he closed the door. "Purple is your color." He said with a wink. "I'm surprised I haven't been tackled yet." He said as he heard Amanda's footsteps. "I spoke to soon." He said turning to where he heard her coming from. "Hey kid." He said as he picked her up before she could tackle him.

"Hey not fair." Amanda said with a pout.
He smiled, "Oh is it really?" He asked as he tickled her belly.
Hahaha Ya!" She said in between laughs.
Holden laughed as he put her down, "In a few days you are gonna be in school." He said with a smile.
"Why?" She asked.
"Because you need to get an education." He said rubbing her head. "Are you hungry? What do you want for supper?" He asked as he kneeled down.
"Umm pizza." Amanda said rocking on her heels.
"Pizza it is, now I have to go make a few calls, then I will call for the pizza, ok?" He asked with a smile.
"Ok." She said running back to Alicia.

He smiled as he stood back up, "Is the paperwork still in your car or in the study?" Holden asked putting his hand on the door handle.

[Evil Tink]

"Ah, it's in the study." Solomon grabbed Holden, kissing him lightly on his neck, "Holden, you can do that later. You've been gone all day, now you go spend time with your sister. Alright? I'll take care of dinner. Anne makes this marvelous pizza..." He let Holden go with a smile.

[Bovice]

Holden moaned quietly when Solomon kissed his neck. "I wanted to catch her doctor before he left the office." He looked at his watch. "Never mind it's already 10:00 p.m. there." He said looking at Solomon. "Do you mind if I show Amanda the horses?" He asked looking down the hall. "Also I need to pick out her room." Holden said feeling stress coming on.

"Holden you will be fine, while you occupy Amanda I will pick out her room, ok?" Alicia asked trying to calm him down.
"Damn it Alicia stop eavesdropping my conversations." Holden said glaring down the hall.

[Evil Tink]

"Alicia.." Solomon muttered, "Ah! Feel free! I'm sure they would enjoy some company. Just make sure to stay out of Jack's way..he's cranky today." He chuckled slightly heading upstairs to help Alicia.
