Originally Posted by Bazinga Laughing bit as she scanned the menu, Victoria remembered feeling like that. Though with twins she felt like she was popped out way to early. "I think you're right, but you look so cute with a belly. Pregnancy really looks good on you." She seemed so happy, which was the key thing. One thing Vic felt like she didn't have with the girls. There was too much drama around it. "Just be happy you won't be the size of a house like I was with the girls." With one she probably wouldn't be too much bigger. "Oh is she? That's such a fun and comforting feeling." Those were things she missed and felt a little unsettled by lately knowing she'd never have that again. *sigh* she wasn't going to let herself think about that choice she made after the girls. No she did it for good reason, at least at the time. "That's exciting that he has felt her. How is he handling all the dad to be stuff." She would even admit that Jorge had come a long way, but this was still her best friend and Vic was still a bit on the I'm still watching you side of things. "You have plenty of time yet for a name. It will come. Oh? What's the theme?" She loved themes. "That will be very sweet of her and how wonderful to have a family member decorate." Such a wonderful thing.
Finally deciding what she wanted to eat Vic was about to set down the menu when Mariel caught sight of the ring. She grinned widely as she lifted it for her friend to see better. "Yes I guess I do. Cossy took me to a quidditch pitch last time and started talking about how we first met at a quidditch pitch and how he wanted to pledge his life on a quidditch pitch and then well he asked me to marry him!" She was bouncing just a bit with excitement. "Though that isn't all." She bit her lip and looked at her friend. "We decided on a small wedding in Scotland on December 22. I know it's just a little over a week, but it's going to be small and I think it will be doable. I just need to know if you would be the matron of honor, please!!!" She couldn't help but look at her friend in terrified anticipation on her answer. "I was hoping maybe after lunch we could go do a little shopping since I have all kinds of things to buy." You know no big deal just a wedding dress and figure out bridesmaid dresses. Mariel smiled again, glancing down as she ran a hand over a belly. "Thank you." Of course, she thought this stage of pregnancy rather suited her too, but she was glad others thought so too. Her eyes did snap up and widen a bit at Vic's next words. She was aware of how big women could get later in pregnancy but she'd rather not think of that just yet. "Well, to be fair, you did have two.. and I'm sure I'll get plenty big besides." She chuckled a bit. "Let's just hope I don't resemble a beached whale." So far she was pretty lucky with her shape and she hoped it would continue that way.
She did really love to feel her baby move. It was a bit to odd to think about a growing person kicking inside her belly, she supposed, but it was miraculous and amazing at the same time. And somehow made her feel like everything was going to be alright with the baby. As Vic asked about Jorge, Mariel smiled a bit wider thinking about how sweet he was with everything. "Oh he's wonderful, really.. I can tell he's excited for the baby, maybe a little nervous too, but that's normal. I'm nervous about things too.. He calls her our princess.. and takes really good care of us." She could admit to herself that she wasn't completely sure how he'd be as her pregnancy developed, even though she knew he wanted them to have a baby when they were planning for one. And maybe he'd still freak out a bit once the baby was here. But he really was so wonderful about everything and she could see that he was really happy which just made it all that much better.
Mariel completely lost her train of thought about baby names and nursery themes, especially when there was a shiny rock in her face that hadn't been there before. She grabbed Vic's hand as she held it out to examine what was clearly an engagement ring. That was certainly something she hadn't expected nor the words that soon followed. She lifted her eyes to her friend's face, smiling a bit as she recounted the story. It did sound awfully romantic.. "Next week?" Mariel blinked as she took a moment to process. "That's so sudden.." In fact, she didn't realize the two of them were that serious to contemplate marriage. But she soon smiled widely and got up to hug Victoria. "What I mean to say is, that's wonderful news.. just caught me by surprise, is all. And congratulations! Of course I'll be your matron of honor."
Sitting back down, she was still smiling as she looked across the table to Victoria. "Alright.. small is doable. We'll do some shopping today, maybe dresses first? Then what else will you need help with?" Maybe this was the perfect time to do it since they were off work and had time to spare to prepare things.
