Home is Where the Heart Is
So, this being a Saturday, Avia had picked up Will and Boom Tube'd the couple of them to LA to this great little pancake house for breakfast.

She picked up a strawberry off the top of her pancakes and plopped it into her mouth, slightly less suggestively than she normally would. Important day. Didn't need to break the boy's brain.

"So I was thinking we might go to Chicago," Avia said. "I was looking at a couple of listings that might make a nice place for us."

She went on. "Hope that's okay? I mean, we can still look at some together too."

	"That sounds good," Will says as he enjoys his blueberry waffles. He is still very new and not quite sure as to what to do, but he was excited. "Chicago sounds good, as does Green Bay and Madison. With the later, they're closer to home, too." Although a second later, there is a chuckle. "Not that it matters with the boom tube and the Power." (Reply to this)(Thread)

	"Wherever you are, Will, that's where I want home to be," Avia told him. "We do have an easier commute than most couples, this is true." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Will smiles at that, while popping another piece of waffle into his mouth. "Yeah. And any place around there would put us halfway between the coasts. All good, if you a-ask me." Damn it. Every once in a while he can still be caught by the stutter. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She didn't even notice. "Important thing is to find a place we can both be comfortable in. Even with Boom Tubing, I'm gonna have to spend some time on the road when I go touring. So some place that won't drive you nuts if you're home alone." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"That sounds like a good compromise. What were you thinking of? The basics, maybe a place with a view?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ms_miracle 2012-03-19 12:29 am UTC (link)
	"A view'd be nice," Avia agreed. "Hot tub, maybe?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	geekgreek 2012-03-19 12:58 am UTC (link)
	"Hot t-tub?" That may have been the insinuation. Or possibly "I've never had one, a-actually." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You, Will," she told him, "do not know what you're missing." "At least two bedrooms, two bathrooms," Avia mused. "In case of house guests." She grinned and winked. "Course, that means we might have to snuggle up close at night." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	geekgreek 2012-03-19 01:19 am UTC (link)
	"I don't have a problem with the snuggling," Will says with a smile. "And for the guests, that's for sure. I have some JSA friends, you have your friends who may want to crash, and whatnot." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Not to mention the possibility of parental visits during the holidays and what not. But that was a far off concern, considering they hadn't even told any of them that they were moving in together. "Also, no telling anyone about this until after we tell our parents. Because while I trust some of our friends, news travels way too fast in our general grapevine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah. As much as I love the bunch in the JSA, I don't think Iris could keep that secret if she liked," Will agreed. And even then, he's sure that others would let the word get around. It's just how it worked. "Th-that will be a bridge to cross for then. But that's not until we get the apartment first." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes. Place first. Because we are responsible adults in an adult relationship doing adult things." Avia held a serious face for about three seconds. "...Wow. Actually managed that with a straight face." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Indeed it was bigger than most peoples homes. Wills included. His home was a small two bedroom piece that was in one of Fawcetts Historical Neighborhoods, so the square footage for the house wasn't amazing. "Oh...wow." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This is way bigger than I was expecting. I'm sure that it would fit your needs. I just have a-a few things to bring in, so I would be happy with just about anything." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Avia frowned slightly. "I overdid it, didn't I? Too much? Too big?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	geekgreek 2012-03-19 10:05 pm UTC (link)
	"Sweetie, if you went overboard you would have just this to yourself. It's fine, just not what I'm used to," Will says quickly to reassure his girlfriend. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Relief quickly washed over Avia's features. "Oh, thank Highfather." She blushed. "Especially since the other place I found in Chicago was even a little bigger." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	geekgreek 2012-03-19 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	"Bigger than this? Holy moley. That would be big. But if it's for more than us, then I'm fine," Will says, wrapping his arms around his girlfrinds waist. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ms_miracle 2012-03-19 10:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Yeah," Avia admitted. "I may have gone a little overboard there." She wrapped her own arms around him, planing a kiss on his lips. "Love you, you know." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	geekgreek 2012-03-19 10:45 pm UTC (link)
	"I love you too, my sweet goddess," Will replies once the kiss is broken. He loves those kisses and he loves her, so he does keep the hug. "This is a possibility, but lets keep looking." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Avia grinned. "I like the sound of that. We wanna make sure it's just right for us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We should find something that does, yes. But I'm sure we will." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
