RP: It's the most wonderful time of the year.... Who: Alicia & Adrian, Isla & Liam [NPC], Nannies Oscar & Maria [NPC], & OPEN When: Wednesday December 21st, 3pm Where: V-Bar What: V-Bar is showing How the Grinch Stole Christmas… and celebrating Warnings:
Never in her wildest dreams, had Alicia ever thought she’d elope. Well, maybe she had, though in those teenaged dreams it would be following a whirlwind romance where Aidan Lynch would whisk her off to a romantic tropical island, where it would be just them.
Reality, however, was, that three months ago (almost to the date), her amazing boyfriend had proposed, she had said yes, and since neither of them had any doubts, they had given notice to the register office at the Ministry, leaving them plenty of time to plan their wedding as they wanted it, when wanted it. It was perfect, it would be perfect… until last night and getting married today turned out to the perfect solution for all of them.
It had taken quite a bit of negotiation, slight coercing, and finally outright pleading – along with the promise that they wouldn’t require anything other than the barest minimum procedure – but they had gotten an appointment late enough that they had time for lunch before, yet early enough that they could still go celebrate with the twins and the nannies.
Alicia dipped the quill in the inkwell, before she looked up at Oscar and Maria. The nannies gave her discreet, yet confident, nods of approval, and she could see the beaming smiles of her children, before she looked at Adrian.
“I do,” she told him, and signed ‘Alicia Helen Spinnet’ on the dotted line – they would deal with her name-change later, when they didn’t have to rush a poor Ministry worker to make it happen.
