[ It's her idea and really he does not seem even the slightest bit of issue with it all. The two of them. Skipping off to have a bit of time. It's been awkward since he's arrived. Stunted he'd probably say though not to her face. She touches him and holds his hand, but that's it. Whenever Jamie tries to go beyond she tells him she's tired or got a headache. He's not a fool. He believed her the first time, but every time after that he was keenly aware that she was keeping him at bay. Part of him wonders if she's still cross, but she promised she wasn't. For the most part everything has been fine. Except that.
But the trip off seems a step in the right direction. Time alone. He's grown used to having two other people living with them in such a small space. It's a bit like living in Castle Leoch with all the people buzzing about, but with considerably less space. Not that Jamie ever had much to begin with. Most of the time he did sleep out with the horses. Though to be honest he preferred their company over most of the people that did reside there.
It's strange this trip. She keeps looking at him like he's going to disappear before her very eyes. It's difficult. But Jamie keeps his mouth shut. No reason to rile her up on such a fine day. Especially when they're enjoying something so beautiful. The water is far nicer to look at than to be on. ]
Aye? [ He looks towards Claire finally. ] What's on yer mind, Sassenach?
