amuhav: “Hey, kiddo.” Victoria spun around with a grin. “Hey, bro. All good?” she asked, glancing over to their parents stood in quiet conversation. “I, uh…” He paused, watching them for a moment. He didn’t feel quite the same level of resentment anymore, but it was still there. One conversation couldn’t fix everything, couldn’t take away years of bitterness, but it was a start, at least. “Um, yeah. Good. All good.” “Good. Maurice not joining us?” “He’s working.” “Ah, shame. I like him.” “Really?” he asked, brows shooting up. “Yeah. He’s cool and funny. And he really likes you.” Rupert flushed. “I dunno about that…” “He does. Trust me, I can tell.” She smiled wide at him and gave him a nudge. “And you really like him.” “I suppose I do,” he said with an awkward smile. “You are going to stay with him, aren’t you?” “You don’t want me to come home?” “I would, normally. I miss you. But I want you happy more. And I think he makes you happy.” He dropped his eyes, his face growing even warmer. “Since when did you become so shy?” Victoria gently shoved him with a laugh. “Jeez, he must be special.” “Okay, okay, let’s just get going, huh?” he said with a fake scowl, dropping an arm around her shoulder to lead her onwards. “You’ve gotten real cheeky in the last two years, y’know?” “I’ve been saving it all up whilst you were gone.” Rupert chuckled, pausing as he looked back, noticing just how close they were to the entrance. “…There is no way you only got this far in all the time you’ve been here. Not with the speed you take things in… What you really been up to?” “You caught me,” Victoria confirmed with a giggle. “Facetiming a friend.” “Ah. And this ‘friend’ wouldn’t happen to be a boy, huh?” Victoria rolled her eyes. “Firstly, brother, how heteronormative of you to think that would be relevant—” “Hah!” “—and secondly, yes, it is a boy. And he’s just a friend.” “Aha—” “And thirdly, if you intend to pursue this line of teasing, remember that I will outwit you, and I have actually met your ‘boyfriend’.” Rupert pouted. “…Y’know what, I don’t think I like this grown-up you. She’s scary.” “Or you’ve just gone soft.” Victoria pushed him gently, and he laughed once more. |
