"Then we will. It will be just for the two of us, and we can do anything that we want. Which reminds me!"
She crouched herself down low beside the almost forgotten backpack, unzipping it unceremoniously. Hugging was definitely on the list of things to do, but so were some other things guaranteed to make him smile. For as much joy as she was getting from this trip, it was really all about him. She was going to make sure he knew that.
From the backpack she pulled out a metal thermos that was still cold to the touch. She glanced over her shoulder, waving him over to where she was as she set the thermos aside and continued to dig carefully through it for something in particular. It was tricky packing it away without breaking it herself, leaving her to rather creatively wrap it. Soon enough she found what she was looking for, pulling away at scrap pieces of paper and tape to reveal a small drinking glass.
With a ginger touch, she placed the glass onto the grass in front of her and reached for the thermos. As she unscrewed the lid, she finally let another giggle loose. This was one of the first ideas that had popped into her head. From the thermos she poured cold milk into the glass, filling it nearly to the brim.
"After all that crying, you need something to drink." She carefully lifted the glass and extended it toward Equius. "So I made sure to bring your favorite!"
