OOC: No Dee, you're wrong! Erase it all and go back! JK! Please don't erase all of the pretty paragraphs...There's quite a few, isn't there?

The three Montgomerys had been in the kitchen, still setting up various trays of food (or rather Mrs. Montgomery was, whereas the two guys were sitting in kitchen chairs and talking about one thing or another). It was only moments later that they all heard the sound of boisterous Italians coming into the house, swift Italian floating through the summer air that filled the Fervi home, and Ferris smiled slightly to himself. "Oh that must be the Vincenzis," Mrs. Montgomery said with a grin, gently wiping her hands dry on the kitchen towel and turning to the two boys who were looking uncannily similar, each sitting in a chair with a glass of water, talking about something with a lot of the same features; dimples, brown curls, pale skin. "Well, c'mon, c'mon, Nathaniel, you haven't even met them yet! They're so nice, you'll want to see them," Ferris's mother persuaded with a warm smile, gesturing for the two men to get up. Mr. Montgomery was just starting to do that, getting up onto his feet whereas Ferris took a bit longer, "Mum, calm down. Give them a couple minutes to greet each other. Trust me, you won't understand a word they're saying during their greetings," the boy said with a grin, though he too got up and set down his water. Mrs. Montgomery gave a faint smile at this, giving an understanding nod, and so they waited a couple more minutes until they heard Mrs. Vincenzi's distinctive voice through the crowd, wondering where the Montgomerys were. "That would be our cue," the young man said with a soft chuckle as the family made their way through the hallway and into the living room to see the entire Vincenzi family all reviewing Fervi's new home.

"We're right here!" Mrs. Montgomery said with a grin as they entered the room, immediately heading towards the large family and beginning to dish out her large, warm hugs. First to Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery before giving one to Ned, and Airi, and then of course Victor ("You're looking awfully pale Vic, haven't you been having any fun this summer?!") and then onto her other favourite Vincenzi boy, Vince. She gave him a large hug before pulling back and studying his expression with playfully narrowed brown eyes. "Vince," she stated rather seriously. "You're getting worse than Ferris. Who told you you were allowed to go and grow facial hair?!" she asked with a grin, her brown eyes playful and sparkling. "You look old!" the woman pointed out bluntly, hands on her hips as Ferris made the rounds as well (though his were a little more awkward as the young man had never been as smooth and open as his mother). And Mr. Montgomery, well he stayed on the sidelines for the moment, until his wife got the chance to introduce him.

ooc: Why must you tease me so?!

Mrs. Vincenzi's eyebrows rose slightly and the brightest and friendliest of smiles took over her golden tanned face as the three Montgomerys finally came to sight, emerging from the kitchen. And all the Vincenzis were quick to return the hugs Mrs. Montgomery awarded them, each greeting the woman politely and with equally bright smiles uniforming all of their tanned faces. As it was Victor's turn, the boy gave a soft chuckle when Mrs. Montgomery commented that he was looking pale, going on to ask if he hadn't been having any fun this summer. But sadly enough, it was true. The boy hadn't really been one to be doing much 'fun' activities ever since he graduated from Hogwarts, and it kind of showed, though he seemed genuinely happy to see Mrs. Montgomery again.

And then, of course, was Vince, who was looking quite happy and carefree. But what stress could he possibly be suffering from when all he did everyday was spend his money carelessly, meet girls, play Quidditch and football games, and get his other three roommates in trouble for the chaos he caused? The boy's life was perfectly relaxing, he didn't have a worry in the world, and it seemed that graduating from school didn't make him any more mature. He just looked older, but mentally he was still a child. So he was very highly amused when Mrs. Montgomery teased him about his scruff, telling him that he looked old. Vince chuckled and brought a hand up to examine the dark brown hair growing all around his chin and jawline, and above his upper lips as well, passing a hand over it in the way a scruffy man usually would when he was deep in thought. "I like to think it makes me look… wiser, Mrs. M," he said in his defense, flashing the woman a grin, though going into deep thought and growing wise was something Vince was completely unfamiliar with.

Vianna rolled her eyes from somewhere in the background, though she seemed amused and beyond thrilled to have her brothers around again, watching as Mrs. Montgomery finally seemed to have the chance to introduce her husband who'd been standing aside all this time.

OOC: I'm the SS Criminal! *dundundunununundunununundununununun*

Ferris, after giving hand shakes to the men and hugs to the women, took his comfortable spot at Vianna's side, hardly saying a word as he often became silenced when it came to large, public situations. It wasn't that he didn't want to be there, on the contrary, the boy looked really rather happy to see everyone once more, but...he was just naturally awkward in these situations and preferred to keep quiet and at Vianna's side. It was then that Mrs. Montgomery listened to Vince's responses, and she let out a hearty chuckle as he stroked his beard-like scruff and mentioned his contemplations that he thought it made him look wiser. Her eyebrows rose, "You've hardly hit twenty, Vincie, don't get ahead of yourself," she teased him with a grin before stepping back and realizing that she had yet to introduce her husband.

"Oh! I'm sorry everyone, this is my husband, Nathaniel," she explained with a rather flustered but amused smile on her freckled face, brown eyes sparkling as she introduced the man who had been quiet. But now that Ferris's father was put into the spotlight, he seemed to flourish and put on a charming white smile as he extended his hand to Mr. Vincenzi first and then Mrs. Vincenzi, and then so forth down the line of Vincenzis and their friends. That was something Ferris and his father most definitely didn't have in common; where Ferris was a little awkward, Nathaniel Montgomery flourished with a large smile on his face.

"It's a pleasure to meet you," Mr. Montgomery said smoothly as he shook each of their hands, a smile on his pale face. And as he smiled, it was easy to see the resemblence between Ferris and his father; they both had those very distinct dimples, the same shade of dark brown curls, and fair skin. They had the same smile, and the same body type for the most part, and the most obvious difference was the eye colour. Ferris had his mother's dark chocolate eyes, warm and lively, and Nathaniel had cool, icy blue ones.

ooc: Yeah whatever Charlie. I'll just have to take your kidney again.

Vince chuckled softly as Mrs. Montgomery continued teasing him, always amused by the redheaded woman. Mr. and Mrs. Vincenzi's eyebrows rose as Mrs. Montgomery then proceeded to introduce her husband and the man flashed the group a smile, and they were rather amused by how much their future son-in-law resembled the man, they could have possibly even passed off as brothers rather than father and son! "Amazing, you two look exactly the same! Una copia esatta!" said the easily impressed Mr. Vincenzi, his friendly smile lighting up his tanned face, something almost even childlike about that impressed and friendly look on his face, that quality that always made it so obvious where Vianna had inherited her own cheeriness from.

"So I heard there would be food here," commented Vince suddenly in a terrible attempt to be casual about the fact that his main interest at the moment was food. Some things just never changed. "I smell no fires, see no burnt furniture... Did you finally learn how to cook, Vi?" asked the boy, turning to his little sister then and raising a dark eyebrow at her.

Vianna gave her brother a look. "No. And you're not getting any food until the other guests arrive, but in the meantime you can have a tour of the house," said the girl, opening the tiny door to the cage she was holding so her squirrels could roam free. "Come, we'll start upstairs," she said before turning to Ferris and quickly adding, "I'll be right back, Professor." She then proceeded to lead the way up the stairs, followed by that large group of six that had just arrived.

OOC: Ouch Charlayy! That would really howurrrtt!

Nathaniel gave a friendly, hearty chuckle as Mr. Vincenzi mentioned that he and his son looked exactly the same, obviously rather impressed with their likeness. Ferris gave an amused smile and a brief nod, having realized this a bit himself the past couple years of having his father around more, though itw as always fairly amusing when other people saw them side by side. Before he knew it, the Vincenzis were heading upstairs and Vianna was informing him that she'd be back in a bit, that she was going to go give them a tour. "Alright gem," he said with a small smile before turning back to his parents who sat on some of the living room's furniture. It was then that the doorbell rang and through the already opened door walked Mr. Nordoff, Nathan, his mother, and about five of Mrs. Montgomery's close friends. Ferris grinned at the sight of them, immediately running over and giving each of them a hug; he hadn't seen any of them in at least a year if not more. "Mr. Nordoff!" the young man practically yelled with a childlike grin, enveloping the aging man in a warm hug before moving onto his mother's good friends, each of which had become practically family to the young man over the years. He then moved onto Nathan, who was now 8, almost 9, who immediately jumped onto the young man's back.

Ferris let out a hearty chuckle, easily supporting the young boy who was currently using him for a piggyback ride. "Fer, I hear you're gonna marry that pretty Italian girl you brought to town!" the young man said excitedly to Ferris's ear and the young man let out a laugh.

"Yeah, I am Nate," he confirmed with a grin, "She'll be down soon enough to see you." Before they knew it, more and more of Ferris's home town was beginning to show up, a good thirty people that were all close friends to the Montgomery family, each carrying dishes of heavy foods and friendly smiles. The music was turned on, playing throughout the merry talking that was happening throughout the Fervi home.

ooc:

Giving her family a tour was a lot more difficult and time-consuming than Vianna had expected. But how could it not be, when they wanted to touch everything and ask a million questions about everything they saw!? And then to delay them even more and make a very simple situation even more chaotic, Vianna's pet squirrels and bunnies had all managed to climb up the stairs and chase after the group, looking to be spoiled and petted though all they got was frightened yelps from Mr. Vincenzi and Vince who looked positively horrified with the creatures' presence.

Meanwhile, somewhere downstairs, arrived another small group; it was Vianna's cousin Giuliana, who was in the company of her three brothers and Luca, all of which looked considerably older compared to how they looked one or two years ago. They looked positively lost and confused in the sea of English visitors that had already arrived, and Poor Luca was probably the most confused of all. At least the Giordano siblings spoke and understood English, but he didn't know a single word! But luckily for them, the Vincenzis soon reappeared, walking down the stairs in a chatter of Italian, each person talking about something different all at the same time, creating for some pretty confusing conversation as it usually went with them, before they caught sight of the newcomers. Mr. and Mrs. Vincenzi disappeared somewhere into the living room then, while Vince snuck off into the kitchen to get a snack, and Victor wandered off to the backyard with Airi and Ned.

Vianna greeted Luca and her cousins all with the brightest of smiles on her lightly tanned face, awarding each a bone-crushing hug. Especially to Giuliana; she'd really missed the girl. "Come in, come in! Don't be scared, these are Ferris's family members and friends," explained Vianna after exchanging greetings in Italian with her family members. "Non essere così spaventata, Luca!" she added, turning to Luca with an amused chuckle.

"Io non ho paura!" said the boy in his defense, though he was relieved when Vince poked his head from the kitchen doorway and signaled him to come join him, something in which Luca did not delay, leaving behind an overexcited Giuliana and Vianna, who were quickly distracted by their own chatter, catching up on everything they'd missed this past year as Giuliana's brothers wandered off with the other Vincenzis.

"There she is, there she is!" a young Nathan practically yelled to the boy whose back he was currently residing on, pointing over the crowd to Vianna who was across the living room. Ferris gave a grin at Nathan's methods of alerting him and gave a soft chuckle, "Alright, alright, I'll take you over to see her, calm down," Ferris replied with an amused shake of his head. He headed over to the two girls through the crowd, though it was taking a bit as he'd be stopped every once in a while by people wanting to say hello.

"Whose the blonde lady next to her?" the boy asked to Ferris's ear curiously, his arms wrapped snugly around his neck as his brows furrowed.

"That's her cousin, Giuliana," Ferris replied with an amused smile at Nathan's choice of words.

"She's pretty," the young boy replied with a bit of a grin, a comment that got the much older young man to turn his head and stare at him with an amused smile.

"I'd suggest waiting a good decade or so before you even consider making a move," Ferris said with a hearty chuckle just as they reached Vianna and Giuliana in the corner of the living room. "Hey gem," he said with a warm smile, gently kissing his fiancee's temple before taking a step back so that Nathan wasn't towering over the girls. "Nathan wanted to come see you," he announced, and just as he did Nathan extended his hand to Vianna from his height on Ferris's back.

"Hello Vianna, we meet again," the young boy said with a wide grin, his hand extended right in front of her face. He was blonde, he was fair-skinned, he had light hazel eyes and the widest of grins; he was adorable to say the least. And his mother had made him wear a bow tie for the occasion, just to add to the overall adorableness.

Vianna and Giuliana had grown completely distracted these past few minutes, lost in conversation in their mother tongue, sharing and listening to all of the events that had taken place this past year, catching up on everything they hadn't been able to share through letters or mirrors during their time apart. But both girls were distracted, though, as Ferris then arrived with an eight-year-old boy riding on his back. At the sight, Vianna couldn't help but giggle lightly with amusement, quickly able to recognize the blonde boy her fiancé was carrying, though he obviously looked a lot older and different now. Vianna had, after all, not really seen him in years, and she was rather surprised when he greeted her with a 'we meet again', not really having expected the little boy to remember her.

But she grinned, a bright and friendly grin which widened as the little boy extended his hand out to her, and Vianna took it, shaking it for a moment with an amused chuckle escaping her lips. "It's lovely to see you again, Nathan," said the girl politely before releasing his hand. "Gi, this is Nathan. He's like a little brother to Ferris," she added, turning to her cousin then.

"Hey there, little guy," greeted Giuliana with a friendly grin, rather amused and endeared by the charming little boy before turning her gaze to the older boy carrying him. "And you just get taller each passing day, don't you, English Boy?" she greeted Ferris, raising her eyebrows slightly at him before chuckling softly.

Ferris grinned as Vianna didn't just giggle and deny Nathan's handshake, but rather shook his hand as though he was a regular adult and mentioned that it was nice to see him again. Nathan seemed to appreciate this as well, his grin widening before turning to Giuliana as Vianna introduced them, and the girl called 'Gi' called him 'Little guy'. "Hello there, you're a very beautiful lady," Nathan replied with a brief nod, a grin still on his face.

Ferris whipped his head around to look at Nathan at this point, amusement in his features and his eyebrows raising, "Nate! What did I tell you?" The young boy on his back just shrugged with an innocent smile. "A decade," Ferris reminded him with an amused shake of his head, turning back to Giuliana as she mentioned that he just got taller each passing day and calling him English Boy. He let out a hearty laugh at this and nodded his head, "It would appear that way," he said with a friendly grin. "It's great to see you again," he said honestly.

"Where do these Italian girls come from, Fer?" Nathan asked to Ferris's ear, as though the two girls couldn't hear him. And though he was whispering, he was very much audible to anyone within a two foot radius. "Is there a city of pretty girls I should know about?" And the innocent young boy didn't seem to realize that the two women could hear him, though Ferris was fully aware as he let out a hearty chuckle.

"Nate!"

Giuliana raised her blonde eyebrows as the charming little boy on Ferris's back greeted her, sharing with her that she was a 'very beautiful lady'. "And you're a very charming little boy," she replied before giving a soft amused chuckle, really rather endeared by the young boy's behaviour. She turned back to Ferris as he spoke, giving him another polite smile before Nathan spoke again, asking the older boy where the Italian girls were coming from, if there was some city of pretty girls he should know about. Vianna and Giuliana exchanged amused looks for a moment before giggling to themselves with clear amusement.

"I think you should let us take this charming little boy to Italy with us, Ferris," said Giuliana. "I can tell he'll be very popular with the ladies there. It seems to be a fashion lately, for Italian girls to be falling for English boys," she said, meaning that last bit as more of a tease as her light-brown-eyed gaze turned to her cousin.

Vianna chuckled softly and rolled her eyes. "I think I'm going to go check on the food, I don't see Vince or Luca around anywhere and it's worrying me," she said, though there was amusement in the blue of her eyes.

OOC: I need a half hour!

Ferris gave an amused smile as Giuliana suggested that he let her take Nathan with them back to Italy with her, that she could tell he'd be very popular as it seemed to be a fashion for Italian girls to fall for English boys. Ferris couldn't help but grin at this, his dark brown eyes turning to Vianna for a moment before turning to Nathan who's hazel eyes were playfully widened at the concept, looking completely sold on the idea of moving to Italy. "Nate! No way is your mother going to let me hand you off to a pretty Italian lady," Ferris said with a grin.

"Aw, c'mon Fer! She wants what's best for me," Nathan reminded his seat with a childlike smile, "And I would say that this is definitely what's best for me."

"Yeah, we'll see how that pitch goes with Victoria," he replied with a roll of his eyes, gently setting the young boy down. "Go find her, would you? She's probably already wondering where you've gotten off to." And with a playful, overexaggerated sigh, Nathan was gone, off to find his mother. It was then that Vianna announced that she was going to check on the food and he gave a brief nod, "Alright..." Should he accompany her? Should he stay behind with Giuliana? This was where Ferris's social skills definitely lacked, he was just plain awkward at this point.

ooc: ok

Giuliana couldn't help but chuckle with amusement at the conversation Ferris and Nate engaged in before her cousin announced she was going to go check on the food, as it worried her that Vince and Luca were nowhere in sight. At this, the young blonde couldn't help but laugh lightly, as it was very typical of Vince and Luca, as the best friends they were, to be engaging in all sorts of trouble together. She watched as her cousin then disappeared before turning back to Ferris, only to find the boy looking completely awkward, clearly debating what to do. Giuliana raised an eyebrow slightly at this before laughing aloud. "You're really quite amusing, you know that, English Boy?" she informed him, clear amusement on her features, even if she looked a little mocking, clearly teasing the boy. "I think I'm going to go with Vi, I'll see you around," she told him before disappearing into the hallway leading over to the kitchen, not really wanting to make Ferris feel obliged that he had to keep her company or anything as he was clearly uncomfortable in the situation he had been put in.

And as Giuliana disappeared, two more people arrived at Fervi's doorstep - it was Margaret and Elliot, and since the door had been left open, they walked right inside with rather hesitant steps, a bit wide-eyed at the large crowd that was already inside. Whoa, were they really that late? Looking completely lost and confused, they looked around for any signs of Vianna or that professor's assistant she'd engaged to during their last year in Hogwarts.

Ferris gave a vaguely amused smile as Giuliana informed him that he was really quite amusing before deciding that she'd go follow after Vianna. He couldn't help but be a little grateful to be relieved from his awkward duty. It wasn't that he didn't want to talk with Giuliana, it's just that...he was never sure what to say, when he was talking to anyone that he was completely and totally familiar with just yet. But just as soon as Giuliana had left, in walked Margaret and Elliot, just a few feet away. "Elliot! Margaret!" the boy called across the few people between them, immediately making his way over to the pair and hugging both with a large grin. "Hey!"

Poor Margaret and Elliot, who looked completely lost, seemed to brighten up as they caught sight of Ferris, grinning as the older boy made his way over to them, greeting them both. "Hey good to see you again, Professor Montgomery," said Elliot, obviously just adding the last bit to tease as they were clearly not in a school environment at the moment. But he was kind of used to seeing Ferris as a professor anyway, despite the fact that the boy spent so many weekend lunches and dinners with them at the Gryffindor table just like any other student.

"Wow..." muttered Margaret as she allowed her brown eyes to wander around the house. "So... it's official, then?" she asked, returning her gaze to the towering boy before her. "You and Vi are living together now?" she added, still a bit disbelieving about all of this. But she had never for a second expected her best friend to move so quickly, the girl was only eighteen and she was already engaged, living in a home of her own with her fiancé, and probably marrying soon! No one who knew Vianna had really expected her to settle down at such an early age, really.

Ferris gave a playful roll of his eyes as Elliot added a 'Professor Montgomery' to the end of his statement, knowing that he was just teasing him, and rather amused by it. No one had called him that in a while. He missed it. The boy was distracted from these thoughts however as Margaret reviewed the house with her eyes, asking if it was really official that he and Vianna were living together, obviously still a bit disbelieving. "Yeah, it's definitely official," he confirmed with a slightly amused smile, crossing his arms over his chest. "Just moved in a couple days ago...we're really liking it," he continued with a brief nod.

Margaret and Elliot listened as Ferris shared with them that he and Vianna had moved in only a couple days ago, and that they were really liking their new home and life together. Margaret, though still very surprised, couldn't help but give a small warm smile at this. "Well I'm happy for you guys," she said honestly, glad to see that the couplle still seemed to be as much in love as before if not more. It was then that she asked, rather curiously, "Where's Vi?"

And as if on cue, the young Italian girl arrived then, almost running over and tackling down her two old friends. "Margie! Elliot!" she squealed, squeezing them both into a bone-crushing hug they returned with soft chuckles and amused smiles. "You guys look so much older!" she said as she pulled back, taking a moment to examine her friends whom she felt she hadn't seen in ages.

"I hope that's supposed to be a good thing, Vi…" muttered Elliot a bit warily before giving a soft chuckle.

"And you look…" started Margaret, taking a moment to examine the couple standing before her. "Well… you guys look as if you were married already!" she said with a soft chuckle.

Ferris gave a warm smile as Margaret mentioned that she was happy for them, something he couldn't help but be a little relieved with as the girl had seemed slightly disconcerted when she first walked in to see their new home. "Thanks," he said, listening as she asked where Vianna was, "Uh...she should be around here som--" Before he could say anything else, Vianna was running into the scene and tackling her old friends, mentioning how much older they looked. "There she is," the young man murmured with an amused smile, watching as she greeted her old friends before taking a step back to join him. His smile widened without the boy really realizing it, gently slipping his arm around the girl's waist before turning to Margaret as she announced that they looked like they were already married.

Ferirs's eyebrows rose slightly at this comment, turning his brown eyes to the girl at his side who was looking awfully pretty in her white dress, just as he'd anticipated. "Me, married to her?" he said playfully, as though this thought had never occured to him. "Gross," he joked, immediately placing a warm kiss to Vianna's temple. It was obvious that the boy enjoyed teasing her, as it was far too fun to do so, especially when everyone could pretty much tell that Ferris adored the girl.

Vianna beamed at her friends, and felt actually quite flattered by Margaret's words, which brought a sort of sparkle to the girl's crystal blue eyes. She looked like she was already married to Ferris?! That was… well, that was great! Because marrying the boy at her side was exactly what she most wanted at the moment, her biggest goal. However, all these fairytale-like thoughts were immediately wiped from her head as Ferris spoke, mentioning how the idea of marrying her was gross. Vianna gasped and her jaw dropped to the floor then, turning to Ferris with wide blue eyes before furrowing her brows disapprovingly at him as he awarded her a kiss.

"Uh-oh, I think that's a deal-breaker," said Margaret with a laugh, far too amused by the look Vianna was shooting her fiancé, though it was clear to those who knew her that she wasn't honestly upset, as she knew very well that the boy at her side had only been joking.

"Y'know, you're lucky I like you so much; there's plenty of girls out there who wouldn't let their fiancés get away with something like that!" she told the boy, her crystal blue eyes narrowed before she could no longer hide her amusement and a smile began to curve the corners of her lips.

Ferris grinned as Vianna's jaw dropped and she let out a gasp, obviously not taking any of his playful comments, though there seemed to be amusement behind those blue eyes he liked so much. He lsitened as Margaret mentioned playfully that this was going to be a deal-breaker, but he only had eyes for the girl at his side who was now pointing out how lucky he was that she liked him so much as there were plenty of girls who wouldn't let their fiance's get away with stuff like that. His smile widened, slightly lopsided as he heard this and a smile creeped onto his fiancee's lips. "Oh I know how lucky I am that I have a girl," he pulled her closer to himself, "...who realizes that I'm totally kidding because being accused of being married to her could only be the highest compliment to me." He kissed her cheek lovingly, brown eyes sparkling at her.

Vianna giggled lightly as Ferris spoke, sharing with her that he knew how lucky he was to have a girl who realized that he was kidding, because being accused of being married to her was a compliment to him. The young girl beamed up at him then, a dreamy sort of look in her crystal blue eyes as he placed a kiss on her cheek.

And poor Elliot and Margaret, who had to witness this, seemed to turn green. "Alright I think I'm gonna go get a drink before you two start snogging in front of us and God knows what else you might have the audacity to do in public!" said Margaret, though she was obviously just teasing the couple as she made her way deeper into the house, Elliot following closely behind her.

Vianna seemed a bit startled at first, and she was just about to apologize, but Margaret and Elliot had already disappeared. The young girl sighed softly then. "Looks like we still scare everyone now as much as we did before," she said with a soft, weak chuckle.

Ferris's smile only seemed to grow warmer as Vianna beamed up at him in the way that got his heart to do a flip, feeling the urge to place his lips on her own. But he refrained for the sake of their company, figuring he was being all good with controlling himself until Margaret and Elliot decided to leave before the couple 'started snogging in front of them and whatever else they would have the audacity to do in public'. His eyebrows rose at this, watching them leave before turning back to Vianna as she sighed and pointed out that they still scared everyone as much as they did before. "And I thought we were doing pretty good..." the boy murmured with slightly furrowed brows, though there was amusement in his pale expression as his brown eyes fell back to the girl at his side. "Maybe you should wear some baggier clothes, stop being so pretty, so I wouldn't have to be so attracted to you," he suggested with a playful grin.

Vianna rose her eyebrows at the boy beside her as he suggested that she wear some baggier clothes and stop being so pretty so that he wouldn't have to be so attracted to her. "Oh, and why should I be the one making all the sacrifices here?" asked the girl. "How about you stop being so charming and cute?" she suggested, watching him for a moment before letting out a soft chuckle, shaking her head slightly before growing quiet for a few long moments until she spoke again, "I'm going to go check how everyone is doing, Professor," she decided, slipping out of his grip and placing a kiss on his cheek.

OOC: I'm off for now Dee Derupersss!

Ferris gave a soft chuckle as Vianna asked why she should've been the one to make all the sacrifices, suggestikng that he stop being so charming and cute. "Hey! I can't help that you find my nerd-features to be attractive. You can, however, start wearing baggier clothes and being a little less cute," he joked with a grin, watching as she slipped out of his arm and mentioned that she was going to go check on how everyone was doing. "C'mon, take one for the team," the boy joked, calling after her with a soft chuckle, referring to the plan of her becoming less attractive to him.

ooc: Byeeee Ruthers!

Vianna couldn't help but chuckle with amusement as Ferris called out after her as she disappeared into the crowd, off to check on their guests and see how they were doing, if there was anything they needed. And every now and then, she'd get held back a few extra minutes by a family member or a friend who wanted to ask more questions, catch up on what the couple had done this past year. And it went on like this for the next couple hours, until the girl decided to escape from the house just for a little bit and headed outside, close to the shore, where her brothers and some of her cousins along with Luca had gathered. It felt to great to have them all here together, in her new home, sharing all of the things she'd experienced this past year, catching them up on her life while they caught her up with their own. And after a little over half an hour out here, the young girl excused herself to go find her fiancé, wondering vaguely what he was up to as they hadn't really had much chance to spend time together these past few hours, and she wanted to invite him to join her outside for a bit.

Ferris had done much of the same that Vianna had, he'd spent a good long while inside the house, talking to everyone and letting them know what he'd been up to for the past year or so, what he was planning on in the future. It felt really good to get back in touch with his town, a place he felt like he hadn't been to in ages, and his town seemed to miss him as well. Everyone seemed to be having a good time at the party. But Ferris was never one to really enjoy huge social situations for a long time, and so he escaped after a couple hours' worth of talking and laughing. Nathan, being the little follower he was to Ferris, followed the young man out onto the porch and they proceeded to sit down on the wood and start to play a game of marbles. Nathan was winning. After about twenty minutes of this game, Ferris looked up to see a white dress wandering around the beach, talking with a few of the Italian boys down there, looking annoyingly attractive again. She would never learn!

A bit of a dopey smile on his face, Nathan had to snap Ferris out of his daze ("It's your turn Fer!") to get his mind back in the game. And though the older boy played with a smile on his face, he was really thinking about Vianna who looked as though she was about to head back to the house. "Nate...uh..w-would you excuse me for a minute? Maybe go find your mum or see if Giuliana needs anything...Don't hit on her though, that's the last thing we need," he mentioned distractedly, and at the sound of the pretty Italian's name, Nathan was up and back in the house.

And as soon as he was gone, Ferris was up on his feet, making his way to the side of the house in order to hide a bit for the next few minutes, concealed by the many trees. There she was...looking far too pretty for her own good...walking back up towards the house with those eyes and that dress...oh, she probably smelled good too. And just as she passed by his hiding spot, Ferris extended out a pale arm, gently grabbed Vianna's forearm and pulled her into the foresty area to the side of their home. "It's me," the boy quickly assured her, pulling her over into his chest and slipping his arms around her securely.
