He asked nervously, hoping that he wasn't going to do anything wrong, or at least during their stay in Italy; he had his reasons. He would have also squeezed her hand into his, just to make sure that she wasn't planning on running away, but he couldn't quite do that, since he was stubborn enough not to let her carry her suitcase.
As Konrad took a quick glance at the hotel, he noticed that the upper floors had rooms with balconies, which would surely give them a lovely view of Florence, so he hoped that they could get one, but if Roxanne wanted a room on the ground floor for the gardens... he'd have nothing to complain about that. Roxanne couldn't remember Florence ever looking so beautiful. Of course, the last memory she had of the city, she had been a young teenager trying to get out of going to yet another boring museum. After all, museums are boring to most teens, so what had her mother been thinking that summer? Anyway, now that she was here again, she couldn't stop herself from eyeing everything. She just wanted to commit it all to memory. So that she could have even better ones of the place.
She snapped out of her reverie when she realized that they had arrived at their hotel..... whoa. Konrad had apparently pulled out all the stops when planning their first vacation together, because they were standing in front of one the most luxurious hotels in all of Florence. "Wow, it's beautiful! Ooo, could we get a room with a balcony?!" She had always liked balconies. One could see for miles if it was high enough, plus people tended to leave most balcony standers alone (unless, of course, they were famous, which was a whole different beast all together). She had often wondered how hard it would be to add one to her own home, but after doing the research, decided against it.
She slipped her arm carefully through Konrad's less stuffed arm, wishing at the same time that he had let her carry her luggage. Really, it wasn't that much of a burden and besides, she really hated the idea of seeming to be one of those girlfriends whose boyfriend had to do everything because she was just so 'helpless'. Though she did appreciate the manners behind it.
