Duncan smiled and only briefly looked at the red roses. "I shall remember that." he said making a mentally note that Madeline likes red roses. Duncan never came to the gardens often but in the right company they were much more enjoyable. Especially since the right company lookedless worried out here. 
"But the roses aren't the most beautiful in this garden." he said looking at Madeline. When he saw her stepping closer his grin widend and he reached for her hand to kiss her hand. He would love to pull her in a hug but he didn't want to rush things, nor did he feel this was the right time with so much going on.

Keith was about to make some more small talk to Desmond when Desmond was suddenly standing behind him. Startled his eyes widend and his mouth dropped as he froze, the chuckle made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. His mouth was dry and he swallowed hard when he saw Desmond sitting there like nothing happend. "Who...what..." Keith grabbed his glass and took a sip again looking suspiciously to Desmond.  He now realised Desmond might not be as friendly as acted, that could have turned out ugly. He would have to watch his back. Inwardly Keith sighed he definitely didn't want to worry about possible dangers his stay here. Keiths eyes narrowed for a bit as he tried to understand what had happend. He knew he made himself look like a dumb, ignorant prince that only liked to wander around and have fun but he would show Desmond there was more to him then met the eye. Keith jutted out his chin and raised his glass to Desmond "Apparantly not everyone." Keith said with new found courage. "Why don't you educate me." Desmonds previous 'lesson' was still ringing in his ears. "I would love to hear more about it."
