He listened patiently as she explained her distaste for her summer plans, and occasionally took a bite of his roll. His eyebrows rose as she explained exactly who she'd be spending the summer with, but it honestly didn't impress him all that much. He wasn't one to keep track of names of important people.

He couldn't help but feel a bit bad for the girl before him as she stated simply that she wanted to go home. He couldn't imagine not spending his holidays at home, for at least part of the time. "The problem's not with you," he disagreed to her next words, lifting his free hand (which was now empty, since he'd finished his roll) to tuck her hair once more behind her ear. "You have every right to be upset." He wished he was better at this kind of thing. He wasn't sure what to say to make her happy, he just knew that he wanted her to be happy.

With her next words, Cornelius couldn't help but grin, his chin lifting just slightly from its resting place on his arm. "I'm your favorite?" he repeated playfully, a warm smile growing on his expression as he tilted his head to the side just slightly. But he fell into a more serious state as he really contemplated her words, "I'm gonna miss you too," he admitted honestly, flashing her a softer smile as he leaned in a bit closer. He waited until his expression was right before her own, his light brown eyes staring directly into her lighter ones, before he spoke once more. "Because you happen to be my favorite too." He flashed her a teasing grin before placing a warm kiss on her cheek and returning to his normal sitting position.

"Maybe that's why you should come visit me this summer," Cornelius muttered casually, the smallest hint of a mischievous smile on his expression as he began to eat off of his plate. "Or I could come visit you..." he muttered between bites.

Aspen laughed at him, "I know that," that she was his favorite. He wore her favoritism proudly and she was sure most people could see it on him, too. "As much as you smile at me, I have to be your favorite." It was just logical, and Aspen explained it as as much.

Oh....? Now that was an idea! Aspen would be lying if she hadn't already thought about it, but it'd be so strange to ask permission to see him from people that were not her father.

On the other hand.... maybe it'd be easier to ask them? Maybe... "It's a date," she promised, complete with a little giggle that was entirely ridiculous and worry-free. Date. Did he catch that? He did, no doubts. This was Cornelius.

"There's one more... thing. You know, weird reactions things." Was he ready for it? Aspen paused to make sure.
