Re: Theo & Calypso
Calypso could have kissed him for that offer. It meant more to her than he would ever probably realize. “Can I think on this and get back to you? I may need to take you up on this offer once we go to Italy for the wedding.” Her nose wrinkled at just the mention of the wedding, she wasn’t looking forward to it. She was almost certain that at this point her mother was just offing husbands once she had gotten whatever it was she wanted. She continuously told her own father to stay in Jamaica, it was safer that way. She was already making plans to hopefully go visit with him soon, potentially after the wedding if it didn’t go too badly.
When Theo smiled at her and told her that he couldn’t have had a better one, she stepped a little closer to him. “Can I hug you?” She had learned from the last time to ask before just doing. She usually didn’t care much about personal bubbles but she cared about Theo and she knew he had his own personal bubble. She was sure she had already popped it a few times tonight when they had come, she didn’t want to do it more than needed.
She had been so extremely nervous that he might not like the pocket watch, when he had called it perfect she gave him a bright and real smile. “I think, since we’re not exactly following the typical rules, then maybe the typical rules about gift giving don’t have to be followed either. I’m really glad you like it, I was hoping you didn’t already have one. I thought it’d go very nice with your wardrobe. Besides, I had to do something because the necklace you gave me was absolutely perfect. I’m already planning to wear it to my mother’s wedding because it’ll go with everyone.” It was better than any other necklace she had been given.
