Sunday afternoon. The twins were at the Fawley grandparents’ and Adrian was still cleaning out the lower floor to make room for his potions lab, and since he’d specifically asked Alicia not to worry about the moving, that left Alicia the afternoon to get caught up on some of the things that needed taken care of before the real world once again imposed on them. Two more days. She was at the same time excited and anxious, mostly excited, though she knew it was going to be hard, no matter how excited she was.

Sitting by the counter in the kitchen, she was going over the pre-emptive booklist she had been sent from the university, when Katie came in. Glancing up, Alicia smirked behind her cup as her eyes followed her friend around the room. It was small, the change, but it was there, even if she couldn’t have put a finger on what exactly it was that had change. There was just something about Katie right now that had Alicia aware that Katie and Oliver in the same city…? Yeah, they’d been more than just old friends lately.

	Katie grinned cheekily. "England is too bloody cold. Even in summer. This is the hArdest part." She said, and finished her sandwich. "Fine Ali, Oliver and I are snogging. But we're just friends." Katie couldn't keep it to herself." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

“It’s been a cold summer, I’ll give you that,” Alicia agreed, then twisted her lips slightly. “First summer in years we didn’t go anywhere, but then we travelled over Christmas and New Year’s.”

Almost instantly her face brightened with the verbal confirmation. “All right, all right,” Alicia held up her hands. “You’re just friends. I’m not going to warn you off him or give you any raised fingers or admonitions, just… don’t panic if it’s more than ‘just friends’. Really. That’s just a waste of time, right?” She knew that all too well.

	Kate just shrugged, "I really don't know what he wants. I don't know what I want. If it's something more, fine. If it isn't, so be it. I'm just enjoying a really good snog for the time being." Kate tried to veer the subject away, "I'm really not looking forward to Winter. Maybe I should go back to Australia at that point." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

“Fair enough,” Alicia said with a nod. “Though word of warning; I’m not going to treat either of you any differently. I don’t care if it’s potential for being embarrassing or awkward, I’m used to being able to being around both of you, and that’s not going to change.” She sent Katie a smile to show that she really didn’t mind, she just didn’t want to have to make compromises when it came to two of her favourite people.

“I think we’ll go travelling again,” Alicia allowed Katie’s change of subject. “Last year we spent Christmas skiing in Wyoming and then we went down to St. Thomas to spend New Year’s with Adrian’s family. Could be we could go as a larger group this year?”

	"That would be fun. Is Wyoming warmer than England?" Katie had no clue about the geography of the United States. Yes, skiing required cold weather and snow but it could be a warmer cold than in England. "How is Adrian?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

”Well, it’s not as wet as England, so it’s a drier cold?” That was really the best way she could explain it. “The snow was hip-high and the slopes were just amazing. I’m not saying that that’s where we’ll be skiing this year, but I won’t rule it out either.”

“Adrian?” Alicia eyebrows shot up in surprise at the question. Adrian was such an integral part of her life now, and yet when her friends, her Gryffindor friends inquired about him, it still surprised her… which she knew it shouldn’t. “He’s good. He’s working hard to keep up with demands while he’s cleaning out a full floor below his flat so he can move his Potions lab. I think he’s actually loving that part, even though he’s grumping about it.” Without even thinking her smile had turned dreamy again.

	Katie grinned at her friend's smile, "...and you and Angie tease me about blushing. That smile says so much more." She was glad her friend had someone who made her feel that way. "When are you going to talk to the kids about it?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
