Faolan had never felt so carefree in all his than during his time in Green Bay with Lucien. The two of them had never been closer, physically and mentally, and it was thrilling to think of their future together. Although, all Faolan wanted to do for the rest of the week was live in the moment and cherish his time with Lucien to make up for the time they had lost due to his foolishness.

He knew that the Frenchman would be a little sad to say goodbye to this town and to Marcel. Another fault in his being away for so long was that it had allowed his companion to grow attached to his temporary home. Still, he was able to leave with dignity and give Marcel enough time to find his replacement. Faolan even went to meet the man on one of the night's Lucien was working, and sat in the back of the room as he played. He paid for two glasses for a couple at a nearby table who had just finished theirs, but did not drink himself. He found Marcel to be a fine man, and even thanked him for taking Lucien under his wing for these past eight weeks.

The rest of the time, Faolan spent gathering supplies and planning their path over the next months. He had not spent enough time here to accept a short-term job, and quickly became restless, but stuck it out so that Lucien could leave on positive terms. Lucien had earned quite a bit on his own, the Rouge du Blanc paid very well, so Faolan was not worried about their financial situation in the slightest. He offered Lucien the next two months off to make up for the time he'd spent working, but he resisted the temptation. Faolan knew he would decline, but wanted to offer anyway.

Eventually, the two moved on. They spent several days on the road travelling South and slightly West. Lucien had vowed that he wanted to visit all 48 states and eventually spend time on the Pacific Coast since they had never seen it. Faolan was happy to oblige, and started charting their course. 

Over the next two years, the pair covered most of the Eastern and Middle of the country, spending three weeks in almost every town before moving on to their next destination. Sometimes, if there were storms or other factors, they would stay even longer, but this was kept to a maximum of three months. They earned wages, saw sights and had new experiences, but through all of it they were together. Not one moment of their journey was seen to Faolan in a negative light. Although, not everything was perfectly safe and the two were not always at their happiest, the love between them never faltered. They put each other first, always, and made sure that they would be safe and still allowed to express their feelings behind closed doors. Being on the road helped with this a great deal, for the two were alone most of the time and so far from prying eyes that they did not have to worry about being seen or heard. This was best, for the two loved loudly and often; Faolan could never really get enough.

Most recently, they had been staying and working in the town of Douglas, Wyoming. It was small, but bustling, and the two found they had an abundance of free time and extra cash. They had done quite well for themselves over the last two years, and had even built up a small savings. Lucien had been very proud of this, and Faolan had supported it by relying on the land for almost all of their meals while they traveled.

Currently, they were walking through town at dusk, having finished a late lunch at a small bistro. Faolan had his hair tied back, and was dressed more formally than usual in a button down shirt and slacks. He still had his sleeves rolled up though, and no tie, of course. He had been lost in thought when he stopped as he felt Lucien tugging on his sleeve. [color=a36209]"Hm?"[/color] he looked down at the Nephilim, who appeared to be holding a sheet of paper.
