Vida stared at the bare room for a few moments before she turned to her husband standing next to her. His arm pressing against her back. Chip was staring at the walls with a strange expression on his face. She knew the feeling. They have been avoiding the whole mess of decorating the twins' room. Now with two to three months left…they had to get their ass into gear.
"No, Chip."
"Why not?"
"Because it would be…I know…tacky?"
"We are wizards, Vee. I think a broom or two will be okay."
"No. We aren't the Potters."
"You just made a Harry Potter reference."
"Strange things have happened."
"How about a fairy?"
She glanced over her shoulder and gave him a look. He smiled innocently.
"I know where you sleep."
"Come, Vee. I am going to put a guanda on the ceiling! You got to add yours. History and all."
She rolled her eyes and grinned.
"Fine…one pixie and one guanda on the wall. No more or less."
"Yay…now, what color should we paint it? We don't know if we are having boys, girls or both. Green?"
"Do you want Xander to have a bigger head than he already does?"
"Yellow?"
She stared at him for a moment then started laughing.
"What? It is neutral."
"Our closet has enough yellow as it is."
"Hey! I represent!"
"So do I but not as much as you."
"I remember someone having pink hair."
"I was going through a phrase."
"For three years?"
"You wore a cape for like…7 years?"
He smiled at her brightly.
"Dear…I still wear a cape."
She grumbled softly. Her boy got a point.
"Maybe blue. Not a boy blue. Maybe, a sky blue. We can add clouds and stuff. Better yet…maybe we can find a spell to animate the walls. That would be a blast. Make it a theme room."
"You might creep them out…maybe when they are older. Are you sure isn't going to be the kids room and not yours?"
"No…my room would have knights or comic book characters."
She laughed.
"And that is why we have separate office space."
He grinned.
"So blue?"
"Sky blue sounds good to me. And some music notes…floating along the wall. No magic. I know a great guy that could stencil it on there."
"You know…I like it."
She grinned slightly as she pictured it in her head. Another thought popped into her head.
What about the carpet?" She said as she glared down at the gross green carpet. They haven't changed it since they moved here.
"I figured that when the twins grow up, they can pick their own carpet. Do a room makeover. We are slowly making over the house anyway."
"Still ugly."
"We can throw a rug over it."
"Cover up the ugliness, love?"
"Besides replacing it, I don't see a better idea."
"Good point. You are going to have to drag out those dressers from the shed."
"I don't even know if they are in one piece."
"Better late than never. We could always magic it up."
"Undonna wouldn't approve."
"She has Rootcore. She is cheating by default."
He laughed as she grinned softly. Slowly, a comfortable silence fell between them.
"So…since we are going to with the music theme…can I still add a broom?"
She laughed.
"No."
The pout that he gave her made her laugh even more.
End.
