Will Capulet

“They are pretty good. Not huge. But the windows tend to be bigger and all that. Which I always liked. Look for one where they’ve at least reno’ed the bathroom. An old kitchen is workable. An old bathroom is vile.” Will commented, “You’ll find something good. I’m sure of it.” Although he kinda wanted to ask why she wasn’t moving into the Somerset estate. He kept those thoughts to himself since gossip in this town was a vicious thing and he didn’t know how much truth there was to the alleged relationship between Bette and the Lady. “Oh well, we’re just taking our time with it. No hasty decisions and all that.”

Text: Absolutely. If you want to come by the shop, I can show you some of my portfolio and you can see if it inspires you. Otherwise, my coworker, Desdemona does some amazing watercolour work. I can show you her book too.

Text: Thank you Sir.  I’ll let you know when I’m free once I see my shifts and set an appointment to talk it through.

Text: Sounds fantastic.

Text: Awesome. Thanks. I’m glad you like some of them. I tried to include a variety of what I can do. I can adjust any of them if you like the direction of any but it isn’t just quite right. 

Text: Thank you for considering them. I really appreciate it.

Will felt immensely skeptical of Ginny’s faith but who knew, maybe she was right, maybe he had put in enough time to at least show that he wasn’t going anywhere, that he had the backbone that Ginny needed, even if it was simply the backbone to endure living in the Tower. He kissed her forehead and nodded, “Posey is pretty ballsy and she can live where she wants but yeah, it makes me happy that if she wants a home with us, she’ll always be welcome. Always. Thank you my princess. For being the home of my dreams.... now let’s find the one of our dreams, okay?”

“Well it is worth splashing out for Ginny but at the same time, food next month is a good idea.” Will replied with a laugh. “Okay. I’ll take that one in her size and let you pick out the underwear that will go with everything.” He grinned broadly at his cousin, “Thanks Mel. You’re the best.”

Text: I didn’t realise it was as long as that.  I’d never considered getting one before so hadn’t really thought about it.  At least if I get it done soon it will be all healed before the summer.

Text: Ugh I have jealousy. I should definitely take Ginny there some weekend. I am sure she would love it.

Will nodded in agreement. “Trust me if anyone understands, it is me. Try in the old town neighbourhood. Close to the centre but the buildings are older, which means the apartments are bigger and the rents are reasonable. That’s where Posey and I got our place when our parents left town.”

Without replying she put her glass down and went over to the kitchen table where she’d left her laptop this morning, biting her lip as she turned it on. “I….I agree with you. This was my home. For my whole life, but..not any more. Not when you..my Dom, my everything…isn’t welcome here. I know you hate it here….and I know you only put up with it all because of me but..I shouldn’t be asking this of you. It isn’t fair that we’re stuck here. And I….I don’t want to go more months like this. I don’t want it to get worse and for you to end up resenting me. So, I um…” she swallowed, turning back to the laptop and clicking on a folder she’d made, bringing up dozens of links. “I’ve maybe already been looking for weeks now. Into apartments..into houses. A real home. For you and me. And for Posey. Every single one of these listings has at least two bedrooms, so she can have a place too.”

When she stepped away, Will wanted to retract everything he just said. He hated upsetting Ginny but he really did think this was necessary. His mouth fell open in momentary surprise when she said she agreed with him. “Hey ... no... I’d stick it out for you. But ... I really want to move on ... time to be somewhere else, you know?” To his surprise she had already started looking. “Really?” His smile lit his features. He touched her cheek, tipping her head up into a soft kiss. “So we start looking. We can just look for now. When we find the right place.... we’ll talk to Lord Oz. Okay?” 

“Oh ...” Will looked it over. “Yeah ... I thought it was pretty. Do you think she would like it?” he asked curiously, unsure of his ability to select something sufficiently fashionable. He did trust Mel’s good taste however.

Text: How long do they usually take to heal?

Text: I’d love to do that. How’s Rome? I hear the museums there are amazing!

Will shrugged as he stirred another packet of sugar into his latte, “Hmmm... about right for a two bedroom in a good neighbourhood. Bit steep for a one bedroom or no amenities though. Could be nice.” Will continued with a shrug. “Looking for a new place?”
