 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Raju spent about a second holding back his laughter before he could no longer do so. The talk of old men was far too hilarious to him; he so did like Vera’s sass. Why did he have no doubts whatsoever that the trio would still have enough residual energy to get into more activities later? Because he had seen just how energetic they could be. So when Vesper backed up Vera’s words, Raju simply said, “I look forward to it! We’ll see soon enough how these old fellas fare against you young folk.” Even if they all wanted to go three against two, Raju was all for it. He was a man who thrived in competition, after all. Vasco received a wink. “We trust those restraints won’t be too painful.” Joking! Raju trusted that Vasco would take care of the girls.
With the kiddos heading off, Raju squished Renner’s hand before collecting from near the cottage’s door, the towels, beach chairs, umbrellas and sunscreen. Yes, this was going to be a full out ‘Muggle’ holiday for this wizarding family! “Let’s get things set up, shall we, Ren?”
Viano averted his gaze from the family as the members dispersed, the three kids heading off to do whatever tickled their fancy while the men remained not far from their cottage. Part of him wished the three would move towards him and ask him to join in whatever frivolities they were about to embark in. The other half of him wish that they did not because surely when the family went back to wherever it was that they really lived, he would miss their presence? Vi was not in the habit of becoming attached to anyone. |
