Chapter Text
“Berenice, you’re so handsome.” Serena told her looking at Berenice in her new suit with her freshly cut hair.
“It feels rather strange not having all of that hair.” she replied, moving to sit next to Serena on their bed.
“It’s lovely.” Serena informed her, kissing her lips.
“No, where near as lovely as you are, my darling. Now all we have to do is find a place to live where your parents will never find us.”
“A nice cottage in a small village where we can raise Jason and be a family.” Serena told her.
“Jason, could we talk to you for a minute?” Serena asked as she walked into the library.
“Of course, Auntie Serena.” he replied placing a piece of paper to mark his place in the book he had been reading.
“You know how Berenice and I are rather close?” she asked, sitting down next to him.
“Yes, everyone knows that.”
“Would you mind terribly if we lived with her from now on?”
“Like we are now?” he asked.
“Not exactly, but in a cottage with just the three of us. We would come and see Professor Hope from time to time and you could come and see Jac whenever you want. We would be a family, if that is alright with you?”
“As long as I’m with you I’ll be okay. You’re okay, I’m okay the world can go round.” he replied, his head leaning into her chest, a smile on his lips.
“The world can go round.” she replied, kissing the top of his head.
