“By the angel I really needed this” Izzy said as she and Cel dropped themselves onto the sofa in the room, both girls had face masks on and cool drinks to hand. They had decided to have a full on girly evening together to catch up and just take a bit of a break. They were both in happy committed relationships but sometimes you just needed time with your bestfriend.
“Thanks for having me over” she said grinning at Cel and trying not to crack her mask.
“Hey, you know you're always welcome. Well,” Celaena considered before looking across at her best friend and winking. “Not always ,” she giggled. “Just drop me a text first to make sure I'm not...occupied,” she settled back and took a sip of her drink. “So how are things with Simon?”
Izzy laughed, “I definitely don’t want to interrupt your occupied time” she said with a wink at her friend, “Things are great. He’s been amazing since Alec and Magnus left, in fact I was thinking about asking him to move into the Institute. But I don’t want him to think it’s just because of them leaving you know?” They hadn’t lived with Izzy but she still was worried he’d read into it.
Celaena gasped, quickly putting her drink on the table before scrambling to crouch sideways on the couch next to Izzy. “You're going to ask him to move in with you?! That's amazing! I mean...I can kind of see why you'd worry about that, but you should just tell him that you want to live with him! You guys are so cute and perfect together!”
“Maybe, yeah, I’ve been thinking about it” Izzy said with a smile at her friends enthusiasm, “Well I’m glad to hear you don’t think it’s a crazy idea. Thank you, I like to think we can be pretty adorable” she grinned.
“Of course you're adorable! You're hot, he's geeky, you're just....perfectly quirky and cute!” Celaena enthused before checking herself somewhat and settling down on the couch to look at her friend. “So when do you think you'll ask him?”
Izzy laughed, “My boyfriend is also hot, but yeah the geeky part stands out more” she admitted, encouraged by the response. Now she had to hope Simon would have a similar reaction, “I was thinking after Easter, it’ll be too hectic before. The bakery will be super busy and I’ll be there a lot so before wouldn’t make sense”
“Well I obviously can’t say that, Damian wouldn’t be too impressed if he heard I said another guy was hot,” Celaena grinned. “Sounds sensible,” she shrugged. “Oh my god, it’s so grown up! You know you can count on me to help with moving stuff if needed, and I’m sure I can get Damian to help too,” she offered.
“Pfft he should be able to handle that” Izzy laughed before nodding, “Grown up sounds scary when you say it like that” she teased, “And I definitely will be calling on you and Damian for moving help. If he says yes” she added because it wasn’t actually guaranteed he would. Though she hoped.
“I’ll see what I can do, but it would be great to have all of us hanging out together,” Celaena smiled. “Damian should be able to like, see the Institute, right? I mean he sees all the weird stuff that happens around here and has his own Dreams so,” she frowned, considering the possibility. “”And he has to say yes, he just i>has</i> to! And that’s nothing to do with the fact that I’ll eviscerate him in under 10 seconds if he ever hurt you,” she joked, reaching for her drink again.
“We do have fun when we all get together. I know Simon likes it too” he tended to feel awkward when it was just the two of them and they went anywhere with food but in a group it was less noticeable that he wasn’t joining in with the eating. “Yeah he should and if not I’ll ask Magn...oh” she stopped, she couldn’t ask Magnus because he and Alec weren’t here anymore. “If not we’ll work it out” she amended with a nod before smiling, “I don’t want him saying yes just out of fear of evisceration” she laughed.
“Just so you know that I’ve got your back,” Celaena held up her hands defensively and grinned. “Not that you’d need it because you could kick his ass six ways to sunday in stilettos without breaking a sweat,” she winked. “We’ll work it out, I know they both meant so much to you, but you’ll still be able to like visit them right?” she softened, tilting her head to watch her friend.
“Well yes that is a particular talent I have” Izzy said throwing her hair over her shoulder dramatically with a smirk, she had the dreams to thank for that one. She’d been good at martial arts even before the dreams but the ability to kick ass in heels was definitely a ‘dream’ improvement. “Oh yeah, I have an open invitation that I fully intend to take advantage of but I’m gonna miss them. I mean I only moved here because I followed Alec, but it was obviously meant to be. If I wasn’t here I wouldn’t have met Simon, or you” she brightened. Nothing kept Izzy down for too long.
“And I wouldn’t have had it any other way,” Celaena grinned and hugged her best friend around the shoulders, resting her head sideways on her shoulder. “You’re not allowed to go anywhere without me, got it?” she told her firmly.
“Got it” Izzy agreed easily with a smile leaning her own head on top of Celaena’s glad she’d made such good friends here.
