| "I think that Irlilia might be on a mission for shoes. Can I take Tarin or Gadrid?" She asked before she returned his kiss, lingering perhaps too long. She would have preferred to stay with him, but it would be difficult to buy him a wedding gift with him right on her heels. A wedding gift, among other things.
Ana would watch Alyn briefly, a small hint of worry in her eyes before she finally broke his gaze. "I will try not to be long, I promise."

| "Take Gadrid with you. He tends to be less obtrusive within the upper class shopping areas than Tarin does. Besides, I may need Tarin's assistance with a few things." He stroked her cheek as they broke off the kiss. He did need to get something for her, but he had plans on picking up a few items he wanted himself as well; items he planned to utilize in the near future. "No worries my love; you're welcome to take as long as you need to take."

| She nodded some and her gaze sought out Gadrid. Ana could see where he would blend in well, with his suit and all. "I am sure he and I will be fine, Alyn. I'll see you soon." Elena had already waltzed off, no doubt with Jendos. Ina had gone in search of a decent art store. And Nadia was with Irlilia. They both liked shoes, so it worked out well. Ana would kiss Alyn again, briefly, before she traipsed off to let Gadrid know that he was going with her.
She would take his arm, and once they were out of earshot, Ana looked up at the much taller man. "I need your help picking out a wedding gift for the man who has everything." Ana informed him. She assumed that his personal shadowguard would know more about him than even she did, and hopefully would be able to help her, since she was at a complete loss.

| Stark returned the kiss lightly and returned to the speeder with Tarin. "See you soon love," he called to Ana over his shoulder. Once they were inside, Stark settled back and closed his eyes for a moment. "Tell the driver to go to Lorn & Sons Weapons Repair. And then while I'm there, see if perhaps you can think up something women like. Hm, then again, she is going shopping for herself right now. I'll just look through her bags when I get back."

Gadrid was silent for a long moment, delicately separating himself from Ana, likely in such a manner she wouldn't quite know it until he was a few feet away. Unlike Irlilia, Gadrid was always somber and he took his job quite serious. "Lord Stark is very fond of books, Miss Riley," he stated after a few moments of thought.

| She didn't even notice, as she was paying attention to everything except him. He wouldn't get too far from her, however. Ana hardly noticed, but she felt safer with someone nearby, especially someone like Gadrid. Maybe Alyn's talk of assassination attempts among other things had caused her to be nervous. Finally, she looked to him. "Ana...my name is Ana. Please?" She said before she glanced back down the street.
"Do you mean like, a real book? Nothing on a holo or anything like that? Where could I find one here?" She had several on Naboo, but they were still packed away somewhere. She wasn't even quite sure where those boxes had ended up after she had decided to leave Naboo for Lorrd.
After they had found exactly what she was looking for, Ana did take the time to purchase a few things for herself (which would leave poor Gadrid in an awkward position as she shopped in a rather....feminine....lingerie store). Ana felt bad for him, actually, as babysitting Alyn's fiancee was likely not what he had signed up for. It wasn't exciting or dangerous, and life with her would likely be quite dull.
"Could you find Irlilia, Gadrid? I need her help, I think....she was with Nadia I think." She was pretty sure that he would be able to call her or something, so that the two would be able to help her find some clothes and things that she needed. Aside from that, there was one more thing she wanted to find for Alyn.

| "Of course Miss Riley," Gadrid said as he walked beside her. With him there, any chance of an assassination was quite small indeed. "Real books are greatly prized by Lord Stark, Miss Riley. He's been a collector for some time. Some of the books within his collection are so rare that they date back to the days of the Old Republic." For Gadrid, watching over Ana was hardly an issue; while she browsed the lingerie store, he took the opportunity to chat with a few of the females working there briefly.
When Ana wished for Irlilia to be called, Gadrid nodded and spoke a few words within a handheld communicator. "She should be here shortly, Miss Riley."

| "Ana." She corrected him, quietly, again. "Please don't make me keep asking.". She said before she finished making her purchases and then handed him the bigger bag for him to hold for her. "Thank you,Gadrid. Sorry to bore you with my little quest. I just figured you would know immediately what I needed to find." she said. That parcel was tucked safely, wrapped in paper, down into her hand bag.
When Irlilia arrived, Ana immediately felt more comfortable and the three girls went off clothes shopping for Ana's upcoming trip.

| Gadrid did argue the point with her, but he'd continue to call her Miss Riley until she became Lady Stark, which would be soon enough. "It is no issue or boredom Miss Riley." When Irlilia did arrive, Gadrid nodded once to her, allowing her to take over the direct watch duties while he faded back into the crowds to keep an eye on her. Ana and her unborn child would be quite safe, that much was for certain.

"Thank you kindly for these, as well as for the modifications made to the items I had sent." Stark departed the weapon smith's shop with a wave, heading back to the limo with a case in his hands. Behind him, Tarin was carrying a long crate, which was loaded into the rear of the vehicle.

| Despite his stoic nature, Ana had decided that she liked Gadrid quite a bit. She quickly forgot that he was near, however, and just went happily browsing, and then finding and trying on clothes at her friends insistence. That was, until she decided she was tired, and the three of them found a lovely little cafe, and called Alyn to come meet them if he wanted.
Ana relaxed back into her seat, sipping some sort of fruit juice, and snacking on crackers. "Really, Nadia, it's only noon and you're drinking wine...". Ana smirked, teasing.
"I'm on vacation, Ana. And just because you can't, doesn't mean I can't." a reply to which Ana actually laughed.

| Stark was by and large done with his tasks when Ana called him and as such, he instructed the driver to travel to the cafe for the meeting. Before long, Stark arrived, exiting the speeder with a smile. He did look about for Jendos, unsure if Elena had spirited the man away somewhere. "Ana!" He called across the street to her, waiting for traffic to halt so he could cross to her. "How was your shopping trip this far, darling?"

| She hadn't seen Jendos and Elena either, which concerned her to a point. She brightened considerably when she saw Alyn. Once he was close enough, she stood and wrapped her arms around him, unconcerned about whether or not people were watching. "It has been good. I think I am about done though. I'm really tired." she admitted, only to him. "But I want to spend some time with you before we go, and we have to find you a wedding ring. I don't know what size to get and I think Gadrids hands are much bigger than yours." Ana smiled warmly.

| He held Ana close as well; they were to be married so there was no need to be concerned who saw. "I got what I came here for. We can spend some time here if you like, my love, but I've already located a wedding band for myself. I hope that doesn't upset you." He smiled back at her, then looked around. "Are we missing two people or is it just me?"

| "We do seem to be down two people. Are you worried?" Ana asked. Truthfully, she was concerned. She liked Jendos, and if Elana hurt him, it wouldn't be pretty.
"No, I'm not upset. If you found something you like, then it's alright with me. I just thought that was my job. I don't know much about this process though." She admitted before she reluctantly untangled herself from him and dropped back into her seat. The one next to her was open, if he wanted it.

| "I am a tad curious as to where they wandered off to. Jendos is capable of taking care of himself, mind you, but it's a little bothersome if we want to move around the city. We can't just leave them here. I'll send him a quick message over the communicator." Tapping out text, Stark sent a message to Merced informing him, and Elena, were she with him, that they might be leaving soon.
Dropping down into the seat beside Ana, Stark stroked a finger along her jawline. "I went for functional, my dear, but I'm sure you'll enjoy the simple elegance of it. If not, I can always find something else."

| Elena was with him, not surprisingly, just shopping not far from where they actually were. Ana glanced to her fiancée for a brief moment before she smiled to him.
"I am happy with whatever you like, Alyn. You know that." she murmured before she turned into his touch some. It was obvious that she was unconcerned about it, she was just content in knowing it was taken care of.
"I am sorry that I got tired. We don't have to leave because of me. I'll be just fine right here if there is anything else you need or want to do while here. I saw a beautiful little store down the street that you and I are going to have to visit some time."
