“Hey,” Aida called ahead, sprinting a bit to catch up to the other woman. “I think you dropped this just a little while back,” she told her, handing over the small keychain. She looked up at her face, taking in her features. There was something familiar, but Aida couldn’t place it.

“Oh dear,” Vanya breathed out in surprise as she accepted the keychain which held her keys for the University and thus were not something she wanted to lose. “Thank you very much. I would have been in trouble for losing track of these,” Vanya replied with a grateful smile as she took in the unfamiliar and yet somehow also familiar face now in front of her. It was like looking at a younger version of her mother which was shocking and as far as she knew impossible. “I’m Vanya. Vanya Blackthorne. And you are,” she prompted holding out her other hand.

Hearing the doorbell ring, Sybil got up from her seated position on the couch and made her way to the door. Looking through the peephole, she smiled seeing who it was. “Vanya,” she smiled, opening the door. She was greeted with a hug. Opening the door wider to let her in, she stepped over before closing the door behind them. “Things have been good on my end. I missed you. How was the trip?”

-

“I missed you so very much as well. The trip was absolutely perfect seeing as everything went according to plan,” Vanya replied before pulling up the basket full of goodies like chocolate, wine, nuts and many other delights from Europe. “Firstly this is for you and secondly now that I’m back I can admit that the trip was actually a cover for a very much romantic reason and I’ve come to show you a few things before I go home to gift them to Adelina. I just need someone who knows me and not a shop owner to see this before it goes to her and I don’t know approve of it I guess.”

“Of course I’m distraught,” Sophia said dramatically with a groan. “The store is out of oreos. How can you be out of oreos? It feels like a crime against humanity.”

-

“Well that’s certainly fair but I don’t think I’d give up hope just yet” Vanya offered to the younger woman who she was certain was a student at the University where she taught. “I’m positive they keep oreos in more than one place in stores. Usually they have them on some featured display too and not just in this normal cookie aisle.”

Adelina was surprised by the woman who bounded into her arms when she arrived home but she was happy and quick to react when she realised who it was. She kissed Vanya back, laughing against her lips, “Hola, mi vida,” Adelina hummed, letting herself be pulled further into the house, “Gifts?” She raised an eyebrow, “Well I’ll never say no to gifts no matter how unnecessary they are,” she was prone to traveling herself and knew how to be independent so she didn’t mind Vanya leaving again. She knew it was important, “I miss you too.”

“Perhaps unnecessary but most certainly befitting the most lovely other half a girl could ever hope to have,” Vanya offered breezily as she tugged her along and then presented the dining room with a flourish where candles lined the table which was filled with all sorts of delicacies from across Europe that she knew Adelina loved. Multiple chilled bottles of wine were waiting to be chosen from along with a nice stash of blood to mix in should they want it. “Let’s take a little walk through our past, my darling. I picked up all of our favorite treats and this is just the first step on our path.”

One of the first stops after arriving home from her European excursion was her friend Sybil’s place. Not only had she come baring gifts but a silly little girl part of her wanted to share her plans with someone before going through with them. As soon as the door was opened she threw her arms around Sybil in a huge hug before turning back to grab the basket full of gifts to enter. 

“How have you been darling? It’s been too long and I just couldn’t wait another moment before checking in on you now that I’m home.” @sybilgrimal-kin​

Vanya had made sure to arrange her things in the house while Adelina was out after having snuck home while she was away shopping in order to do so. Her plans had finally concluded and she was practically vibrating with excitement as she tucked the little box into her pocket of her dress. Hearing the door open she bounded across the home and into Adelina’s arms. 

“I missed you so, my love. Latin is a lovely language and all but it’s nothing compared to you,” she cooed happily as she planted a kiss upon her lips before coaxing her into the house and towards the kitchen just as quick. “Luckily I had time to get you gifts along the way to make up for leaving you after promising I wouldn’t do so again.” @immcrtalsx​

“Oh my god, they’re doing karaoke. Come on, we have to sing something!” Caleb said, pulling on the other’s arm towards the list of songs, “What’s a duet that’s not too cliche?”

“You of all people should recall I’m a dedicated ballerina. I can name a thousand different classical songs without a single lyric for you right now but a duet,” Vanya answered with an adorably surprised look as she glanced over at her dancer friend whom she still allowed to pull her forward. “If you want me to sing you’ll have to start with those ideas or I’ll never come up with anything.”
