With a content sigh, Melinda leaned back against Viktor’s chest. The water was warm and the foam just thick enough to make it feel luxurious. The only light came from the candles on the counter by the mirror. With Bryn’s position still left unfilled the days tended to run longer, and today had been no exception. It worried her, of course it did, because with the announcement of the Team Cakes the start of the Quidditch season became real to her, and that meant that Viktor would now be on the same insane schedule that Oliver had been on last year. Now, however, she figured that she was aware and Viktor being as different from Oliver as he was… she hoped that was enough to make this survive the upcoming busy patches.

She also knew that Viktor had something personal going on this month, but she hadn’t pushed him about it. He would tell her, when he was ready, and until then, she would just be here with him and enjoy the quiet closeness now that the children was asleep.

Viktor couldn't help but grin. Melinda was very good with his children, and yes, her dragon roar definitely pleased his son greatly. It warmed his heart that she was willing to give up some of her time off just to watch Misha, so he could spend a little one-on-one time with his daughter. "Thank you, love," he murmured, hugging her more tightly. It meant a lot to him. Tsveta did need him and just him sometimes, especially as she got older.

He wondered for a moment if he should hesitate, but he had never been particularly ashamed of his history, aside from perhaps actually marrying his ex wife, though Misha was something he could never regret. "I loved Mikhail very much for a long time," he admitted, the only hesitation being that it wasn't the easiest to talk about. "Even after ve stopped seeing each other, he vas my best friend." Awkawrdness and all, initially.

Somewhere, in a teeny tiny part way back in her mind, Melinda had feared that hearing about Viktor’s former lover would hurt. It did, but not because he was telling her about a man he loved… the pain she felt was for the loss that Viktor had suffered.

“I’m sorry for your loss,” she whispered, leaning in to rest her forehead against Viktor’s. “So incredibly sorry.”

Viktor hugged her a little more tightly, sprinkling a few kisses across her cheeks and lips. "Thank you," he murmured. He had been afraid, though he didn't want to admit it, that she'd react badly to hearing such things in his past. It wouldn't be the fist time in his life that had happened. He was very relieved to know that wasn't the case.

"You vould haff liked him, I think," he surprised himself by saying, but he found himself thinking it was true. "And he would love how you are vith Tsveta."

Melinda was surprised by the small smile that appeared on her lips. That warm feeling at hearing that Viktor thought she would have liked Mikhail and that he would have not just approved of the way she was with Tsveta, but loved it… it felt good. No, ‘good’ wasn’t the right word. It was bigger than that. It warmed her, it touched her, and somehow it made her see that she wasn’t just falling for Viktor; she already had. He had loved this man, who sounded like an amazing human being, and now he had let her into his life, into his children’s lives.

“He sounds like someone I would have liked,” she smiled softly, “and he fathered a wonderful daughter.” Leaning in, she kissed him slowly. “Thank you,” she whispered.
