Entry tags: | !thread, character: terence higgs, retired character: ashleigh spinnet |
Who: Ashleigh Spinnet and Terence Higgs.
What: Ashleigh wants to see Terence's new house, Higgs might try to feed her dinner.
When: After work, 11th July.
Where: Terence's house.
Rating: PG.
It felt slightly strange, Ashleigh acknowledged to herself, to be celebrating her brother-in-law moving into a house that didn't also contain Alicia. Not that Ashleigh would have advised them to move back in together - she was far too cautious for that - but a brand new house did seem somewhat... counter-intuitive, if Higgs' eventual goal was to live with her sister again. Having always done her best to keep out of Terence's side of their relationship, Ashleigh wasn't going to bring it up. Instead, she merely waited for Terence to pick her up from her office, carrying her presents for him in a gift bag that she refused to let him take from her until they were actually over the threshold of his new residence.
Before they could step through the floo, she put a hand on his arm and looked up at him. "Do you promise the dog won't drool on me?" She was mostly teasing. She wasn't afraid of dogs (any more), and even if she had been she'd spent enough time around Axel's pets in recent months to get used to it. She still didn't see the appeal, though. She doubted that was ever going to change.
