What You'll Find Here

Anacosta Heights
Dupont Circle
Hawethorn Village
River Dale

Anacosta Heights

Situated above the daily life of the city, Anacosta Heights is a tucked away suburb featuring extravagant neo-gothic inspired mansions. The inhabitants of this neighborhood often show their overwhelming wealth with sports cars lining their long, circular driveways, large pools, and manicured gardens. The homeowners of Anacosta Heights treasure their privacy as seen by the high iron gates to the security personnel present at every entrance.

Dupont Circle

Dupont Circle is a small suburban neighborhood settled within the serene portion of the southern portion of town. These four-bedroom, single-family homes feature back yards, porches, garages, and far more breathing space then the Village offers. This neighborhood often is more family orientated and even has organized events for children and the neighborhood as a whole.

Hawethorn Village

Settled in the middle of downtown, Hawthorn Village consists of several victorian inspired row houses just off the main street. Due to it's convenience to just about everything, the village can be a tad expensive to live within. However, the residents of this neighborhood often have two to three-story townhouses, often with a one to two-car garage. Many of the houses feature bay windows and/or rooftop terraces with a small fenced-in 'yard'.

River Dale

River Dale primarily consists of apartments that, despite their age and industrial appearing interior, still hold to the Victorian history that permeates the town. These apartments are often the cheapest option and sport scuffed, older wooden floors, open floor plans, visible beams, and the occasional brick wall.

Taylor's upbringing was far different from Adelaide's in many ways. Where she was probably attending tea parties and balls as she matured into adulthood, Taylor was feeding his rebellious side and getting in fights left and right. When his parents weren't attending Kari's graduation speech as Valedictorian or her Honor Society recitals, they were being called to school to get Taylor from the principal's office with another black eye or swollen lip. His father's disappointment only grew with each call and after the fifth time or so, Taylor gave up on trying to explain that he was defending other kids. His dad didn't want to hear it. He wanted Taylor to leave it alone and be more like the other kids, obediant and quiet. But that just wasn't in Taylor's nature. He couldn't help but question the system and those that built it in turn. When the teachers didn't stand up for the kids that got bullied, he felt it was his duty to do so instead.

Taylor didn't do a lot of the usual dating growing up. He was too much of a loner type in school and though plenty of girls found him attractive, they usually kept their distance because of his troubled nature. They made up stories to gossip about how he went to juvie for beating up six kids from another school and how he sold drugs after school hours. He shrugged it all off cause he could care less about their attention at the time. The one girl he liked wouldn't be caught within ten feet of him so he kept to himself. Once he was out of school, he met a lot of girls in seedy places, mainly bars. Which means drinks were involved and usually they ended up as flings or one night stands. A few he tried to get serious with, a part of him actually wanting more, but usually either the girl rejected that or he found out sooner rather than later that she wasn't the one he wanted long term, after all. He thought his luck had changed when he found Becca, but we all know how that one turned out.

At his comment about the lack of traffic noise, Adelaide said they should look into it and his brow rose as he glanced at her, surprise crossing his features before they softened and he smiled and nodded. "We can do that." He would never rush her into anything. He was willing to just take it all one day at a time. He never felt like he was in a rush with anything when it came to her. He brought their entwined fingers up to his mouth, gently brushing a kiss across her knuckles before he let their hands fall back down as they walked down the fence. His eyes glittered with happiness to be showing this place to her. He couldn't think of anyone else he'd rather share it with. When he teased her about Townsend, she teased back about him not living with them. Taylor brought a hand to his chest and jerked back, pretending to be shocked and hurt. "You can't really have me believe you would send him out on his own after so long in your company? You'll kill the man." His tone was playful but there was an underlying look of concern in his eyes.

He did wonder how Townsend would truly get on if him and Adelaide were to part. Sure, they were only friends but so so close and they'd been together since childhood. Now knowing that Townsend had lost the love of his life, it tore at Taylor's heart to think about the man losing the only other important person in his life. He would never try to do that to Adelaide; make her choose. If she wanted to keep Townsend living with them for the rest of their lives, Taylor didn't think he'd have it in him to say no. The subject shifts to Adelaide's horse back home in Paris as they walk to the fence where two curious mares are. Taylor was enraptured as Adelaide spoke of her horse, Tristram. He could imagine she would love nothing more than to have him here with her so he asked after him, only for her to say that she couldn't let on to her parents that she wasn't returning. She didn't want them coming here, looking for her. Taylor's brows furrowed in understanding.

He couldn't think of anything to say that would comfort her. Her mind was made up and he knew firsthand how stubborn she could be. When he admitted to her that he'd never rode before, he hardly expected her to tell him they would remedy that soon enough. And of course, she would mean right now. He watched with barely hidden amusement in his eyes as she called out to a man carrying buckets of feed, if the reactions of the two mares in front of them were anything to go on. He followed her over as she shook the man's hand and spoke to him, asking if the horses were available for rent. The man seemed agreeable enough to the idea. When his gaze moved to Taylor, he offered a shrug and a smile, his eyes bright as if to tell the guy "if it's what she wants, what can I do?" Of course, he didn't mind, at all. It was one of Adelaide's very endearing qualities that always prompted her to show him something new just when he was least expecting it.

As she turned to him, his gaze softened, his arms wrapping around her waist and drawing them front to front as she looked up at him and asked if he was up for the challenge. A chuckle fell from his lips as he lifted a brow. "Always." Then he lowered his head to plant a kiss on her lips. Reaching for her hand again, he started walking toward the barn, feeling both nervous and eager at the chance of being on a live animal for the first time.
