 ~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
That much was true! Vesper was smart and could easily be occupied with the twins. Possibly she could spend her time keeping them out of trouble. And Ren was right: there were plenty of plans to look forward to. Also something to enjoy were plans that hadn’t been made, the unexpected and the spontaneous. Like meeting this seemingly shy little guy. Raju’s gaze turned to Vesp as she introduced her friend then peeked at the shells. “That’s a very nice name,’’ he told Viano. “And some really pretty shells, Vesp. For jewelry?”
When it was mentioned that Viano knew him, and after catching Vesper’s knowing nod, Raju immediately figured that the boy was a Wizard. “Why don’t you join us?’’ he suggested, glancing at Renner but already knowing the other man wouldn’t mind. He indicated to the vacant chair next to him. “Do you play Quidditch too?”
Thank the heavens Vesper saved him. Vi hadn’t met any other celebrity other than Raju so he was quite uncertain of how to act. Or rather, he knew that he should be normal but it was very difficult when one found themself in the presence of their favourite Quidditch player. Vi cleared his throat, probably to hide the little squeak of surprise that threatened to escape. Raju wanted him to sit next to him? Vi hoped he didn’t pass out. Instead, he focused on nodding and taking the seat.
Only then did he clear his throat once more to force words out. “Si. Chaser, like you.” That was as much as he could manage to say right now. |
