At the mention of Beatrix again, she can’t help but to him a quiet laugh of agreement. “Which I’m sure you know will either get better or worse as she gets older.” She comments easily, a tilt to her head as she shrugs. “I wish you luck.” A wink is sent his way before they’re talking about more serious matters, and he takes her acceptance of his apology well.
And then tells her she had nothing to apologize for, to which she shrugs once more. “Well I’m glad I got the nice mean Loren.” A chimed laugh accompanies her words before she splays her hands along her knee and fiddles with her wedding ring. “But I would still like to be your friend, too.” She offers, gaze lifting. He had mentioned he wanted to try it, and she has no qualms with the attempt. Could be pleasantly surprised, like when Rexanna had sworn off relationships until Bastien came along — only under the condition that they both weren’t very good at it but would like to try.
And look at how that turned out.
