Easter Visit

Katarina leaned back against Shane with a soft sigh as she looked out over the familiar view.  “No, I rarely took the ferry.  It fun for a trip but it rarely actually got me anywhere I needed to be.  However it is always better than the mega expensive tourist boats which cost a fortune, make practically the same trip and are always packed,” she laughed as one of the tourist boats went past in the opposite direction and jam packed.  Katarina glanced around to see Natanya in deep discussion with Augustus and Colton with his camera to her eye as normal.  “I’m glad you finally got to meet Nat,” she said turning to look at Shane.  “It’s been strange talking about you for so long without her having ever met you.”
Natanya listened to Colton having forgotten about all the moving and separating that Katarina and Shane had done so it made sense that it hadn’t been that long that they had been together.  “I’m glad she has reached that point but I wish she would get a move on.  It’s nothing to do with auctions, I’ve just never seen her so close to someone and she needs settled.  You know she threatened to move to Milan to find someone and I don’t need her cramping my style.”  With a chuckle Natanya ducked out of Colton’s arm as he continued to tease her about Marco and she grabbed Augustus to discuss the latest trends and compare Italian style concepts with what he was seeing.
Shane smiled softly when Katarina turned around, nodding her head some. “It’s nice to finally meet her too. Now I can put her face to the name.” She cracked a smirk, making a funny face at her girlfriend. Natanya and Katarina were identical, and had Shane not known Katarina as well as she did, it would be hard to tell them apart. “I think your brother took some pictures of us,” she warned, ducking to kiss Kat’s cheek. Shane didn’t want to bring up claiming, she didn’t want to talk about it when she had plans running through her head. “Is your sister going to school at all? Or should I ask her those questions?”Â
Colton had to laugh when Nat decided that Shane needed to hurry up and claim their sister already. She had no idea what it had taken for them to get to the point that they did and Colton was going to let them do their thing. “She’ll get there- they’ll get there. They have to go at their own pace. Do I wish they’d get along with it already? Yeah. I just know that neither of them are going to do anything they’re not ready for.“ He replied, shrugging looking to his sister. “Cramping your style with your not boyfriend?” He answered, watching as she tried to dodge the question and stole Auggie away as a distraction. He snapped photos of his friends and family, knowing he probably got caught. Soon they had made it to the edge, passing by the Statue of Liberty before they would make their way back. He made sure he left enough space for photos during shopping perhaps. He gave Kat a little hip check as he passed before he rejoined Nat and Auggie.

Natanya looked up with a grin as Colton rejoined her and Augustus,  “Get some good shots?  There is something very reassuring about seeing you always with a camera, it’s like some things never change.”  She watched the view for a moment before turning back to him, “What Kat said, about Marco, she’s wrong.  He is special but I don’t have the pressure she does.  I’ll see what happens when I get home, if he has actually waited for a few weeks.  That seems a good indication.”  She looked towards Katarina and Shane as the ferry came in towards the dock, “They’ll make it, Kat would never have waited this long if she thought they wouldn’t.”  She was trying to reassure herself as much as Colton, the fear that something would happen and her sister would somehow end up at the auctions after all.
