Like what Adrian had promised to Cassidy back then, he took her out to the grand opening of the theme park that Millicent Inc. had been working on for a long time.

This one is not really a date, though. That's because they won't be going alone together. For that night, they'll be with the children along with some adults. 

"It's about time you two get here! What took you so long?! We've been waiting since forever!" Asher bolted out at Adrian and Cassidy, causing quite a scene at the entrance of the amusement park.

He seems more impatient than usual, which they think is because he's still against them getting back together. It's already a struggle to get him to come tonight. But when he saw them holding each other's hands, he only let out a sigh.

"Well, whatever! Let's go before it gets late!"

With that, Asher went ahead and walked in while everyone else followed after him.

Hugo and Joshua are bustling about the rides they would be trying out. Damien and Aira, on the other hand, keep silent and listen to them from behind, chiming in from time to time. Olivia and Irish walk alongside each other, looking around the place in awe and wonder. The same go for Charles and Edward, though they don't appear to be as compelled to the sceneries as they are. 

Meanwhile, Cassidy and Adrian walk a little further behind all of them, never getting tired of enjoying each other's company.

She could feel his fingers intertwining with hers at that moment, making her look at him. With a soft smile, he held her hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

"Let's keep each other warm. It's a little cold tonight," he told her. 

"Alright," she beamed in return. 

The theme park has such a lively ambiance and a bright setting. There are many people strolling around and hanging about. Surrounding them are rides of various kinds, a myriad of food stalls, lots of outdoor games, and some adorning Christmas decors that bring about the holiday spirits.

Everyone appears to be having a great time - smiling, laughing and enjoying themselves. 

Cassidy has a smile of her own, feeling more than happy to be spending the night with everyone there. She really wouldn't be experiencing such happiness if it wasn't for Adrian, though.

'He said that he wanted everyone to get along from this point on. Learning from the past, he didn't want to be indifferent of what's happening in our families anymore. Now that we're together, he wants things to change for once, thus his idea to go here together with the others,' she thought to herself, pleased to see that he really did change for the better.

Grinning, she then leaned her head against his shoulder. She could hear the kids snickering to one another as they turned around to look at them, but she only let them be. It's not just them, though. She could also feel other people staring at her as she walked beside him.

'Seems like you're catching attention again, Adrian. That's fine. You're very handsome, after all. Can't blame them.'

Little did Cassidy know that those people also thought that she herself was beautiful - making her and Adrian look like the perfect power couple. 

Ignoring the attention, she then began to look around the place again, thrilled and ecstatic. That's when some mouthwatering, delicious smell wafts to her nostrils. She sighed as she heard the sizzling, popping and crackling all around. They'd barely gotten there, but she already wanted to eat.

"Alright, then...!" Asher chimed in again, spinning around to look at all of them.

"I don't know how this thing works, and I've got no idea where exactly we're going. Shade, you go on and take the lead."

"Oh, you all can go wherever you want to," Adrian replied with a small chuckle.

He then pulled Cassidy closer to him, wrapping his arm around her waist. She blinked as she found everyone staring at her, confused as to why she's suddenly the center of attention. 

"Cassidy and I are going to hang around on our own for a bit. We'll see you later," Adrian then added, making them throw a fit.

"Hey, that's not fair, Uncle Bossman!" Hugo protested. 

"Yeah! Stop keeping Aunt Cassidy all to yourself!" Joshua exclaimed.

"I thought we're here to spend time together, Uncle Bossman," Damien complained. 

"You heard the little Shades, Shade! To hell with your idea!" Asher joined in.

"Hey, watch your language, you jerk! The kids can hear you!" Irish scolded him, earning his retort. 

"What? They never heard the word 'hell' before? Well, they should be! Lord demon ain't got no mercy-"

"Why do you always spout out nonsense whenever you open that big mouth of yours?!"

"And why do you alway have something to say against me?!"

"Cause you always say the dumbest things!"

"You really wanna fight me now, lady?!"

"Oh, you bet I will!"

From thereon, the two of them had taken over the conversation. With that, they completely forgot what they'd been arguing about in the first place. They only went on with their usual banter while the children watched them go at it from the side. 

"Say, does this also count as flirting even though they're not married like Aunty and Uncle...?" Hugo asked Damien and the others to which they only shrugged in response. 

"Should love always be this chaotic, though? How dangerous."

"This is all your fault, President. Take that back," Charles called Adrian out, returning to the main topic. 

"He's right. We came here to hang out together - not for you to take Cassidy who knows where," Olivia seconded with a pout. 

"Well, too bad, guys..." Adrian quipped with a smirk. 

"Since we're all going to watch the fireworks display later, my wife and I have to get as much 'alone time' as we need before that."

Cassidy sighed and shook her head back and forth while Edward only kept grinning at the side the whole time. It's hard to make her husband back out from his plan once he decided to do it. She kind of thought that he made sense, though - perhaps, they could use some time for themselves before the main event.

"Cassidy and I are going on a short date..." Adrian continued, giving Charles and Olivia a teasing look before he started pulling Cassidy away from them.

"For now, why don't you hang out with Olivia? Wouldn't you like that, Charles?"
