She would need to discuss this with Mariel at some point too. “Alright that sounds like a plan then. Once the twins are here I’ll find a night I can slip away and check with Mariel as well. “ She beamed excited for the change to go out with just the girls and to celebrate a friends accomplishments. She thought for a moment what was the man’s name, “I think it was Simon.” She could have been wrong though. “He scared me a bit. I was in the office alone and all the sudden there was some man in there.” She chuckled remembering.
That was so sweet of Emily to think of her getting away, but Victoria knew it would be hard, “Maybe, I had a spa day not too horribly long ago that was a gift for my birthday, but another relaxing day would probably be nice.” She would have her hands even fuller soon, Emily might be right that she should get away. She did have some vacation time, it was something she really would think about.
She could actually laugh about what happened as well now. Surprisingly she was never too upset over it. She knew her son didn’t mean to do it even if the school though he had from some previous events. “Well he’s moving back home to be with Charely and I so I’m going to send him to Hogwarts. They handled his father so I would think they could handle him.” Jon was a little hyperactive in his day so she felt they probably could deal best with her son. Now a full laugh escaped Victoria as much as she didn’t want to admit it she loved the idea. Not that she felt Bart was horribly bad, but he had his moments and maybe something like that would help keep him on the better path. “I would love to take you up on that one day. I could gladly volunteer him for a scared to stay good adventure.” She would have given up Luc as well if it wasn’t for recent events and now his parents in jail themselves, probably not the best thing for the child.
Attacked his face, “I did no such thing.. If the man cannot handle a little kissing..” She shook her head laughing. “He did explain I was under a love potion didn’t he? I wouldn’t have just kissed him or yelled about how brilliant he was in the café just for my own doings.” Goodness no Victoria was usually more shy around men than that. The potion had complicated things for a bit, Charely she still wasn’t sure was friendly toward Gavin, but she enjoyed the man. He was nice to look at if nothing else, even taken pregnant women had eyes still and could look. “I bet..He has always come off as the control type. I bet that could be fun though.” She gave out another chuckle. She really should stop messing with him. It really wasn’t nice, but it was fun.
And there would be no backing out of this... this... girl catch up celebratory thing. It had been decided, and essentially set in stone. "Done," she confirmed with a nod. After all, at least she wasn't expected to make the plans, just go along with them. That was easy enough. Of course she wasn't surprised at her mention of Bennett, he was one of the few she expected to be poking around other levels, "Apologies," she stated briefly, her eyes scanning the faces in the seating area before returning to Victoria. "You can expect to see him around more regularly, other security personnel too," she informed with a nod, "the division has gone soft over the years, but rest assured if you should need anything..." that they were there.
She could tell Vic wasn't too confident on that point. The maybe was heavy with uncertainty, which was a shame, because if anyone ever needed a break it was when expecting twins. Again, mind boggling. "Oh... happy belated birthday," she congratulated, unsure of whether she should have known about this or not. Most people did celebrate their ageing. "You should do it," she encouraged, "go for it." Because really, what was the worst thing that could go wrong? At any rate, it was her decision, and personally she wouldn't be tempted by such things, she'd get bored too quickly.
"Oh he'll be fine then," she chimed in. Hogwarts was as good a school as any, and closer to home than Australia, so it had its perks. "Durmstrang would be a suitable alternative if things don't work out," she added as an after thought. The school was notoriously strict. She would know. Emily chuckled at Vic's appreciation for her offer. It was rather generous of her, she had to admit to herself - but it would also be amusing in that self-fulfilling way. She simply nodded, with nothing further to add on the matter.
Emily was smirking at Vic's denial. No face attacking then? Heh. "Well he didn't see it that way, but I had a feeling he was exaggerating." It didn't take a genius to figure that one out. "He did, and I have to ask... what possessed you to participate in the trial in the first place?" It was the most ridiculous thing she'd heard, and there was nothing, nobody, not even Izzy would convince her to try the darn thing. The controlling part got her attention, but she narrowed her brows in thought on it.. she could see that, in part, but she would hardly call him a control freak - at least, not to the extent of some MLEers. "Fun? How?" she wondered out loud at the last bit.
