Vincent drained his mug of tea and set the empty mug aside, turning his attention back to the stack of papers he was grading. Or trying to, at least. His mind kept getting pulled off-track by the worries swarming in his head. How to give Diana the unique, memorable proposal he wanted to give her, and do so without seeming completely insensitive to Rivienne?
If only Rivienne were here, he could perhaps talk it out with her sooner rather than later... Maybe he should go and look for her.

Rivienne peered in the lounge, her eyes scanning the room. It was empty apart from Professor Hawk. "Vincent." She smiled. "Morning."
Rivienne entered the room and poured a cup of coffee from the pot. She took a sip, then took a seat on the sofa across from the other professor.

Vincent looked up and smiled as Rivienne entered the room and poured herself some coffee.
"Rivienne. Morning," he echoed her greeting with a smile as she sat down across from him. He leaned forward a little as he spoke. "I was just thinking about you. There's something I've been meaning to talk with you about."

"Oh?" Rivienne raised her eyebrow, setting the cup down on the table. "What is it?"

Vincent paused before he spoke, wondering how to word what he wanted to say.
"It has been my intention for quite a while now to propose to Diana," he explained. "I've set the date to her birthday, in March. I want the proposal itself to be something very unique and memorable, possibly with the involvement of others as well as myself and Diana. But at the same time, I'm aware of what you're going through, and I don't want to seem insensitive to your feelings in any way. I thought I should ask for your opinion of this before setting anything else in stone."

Rivienne leaned back against the sofa, staring down into her coffee cup. She considered this for a moment. "It's rather touching that you're so concerned about us, but you shouldn't let any of this get in the way of your happiness." She looked back up at Vincent. "We're stronger than that."
Rivienne held the cup close to her face, and was quiet. "I'm not so selfish as to impose my problems onto you and your family. And frankly, I think Dunehelden could use a happy occasion." She smiled warmly.

Vincent laughed softly as he smiled back. "Amen to that. And thank you."
Well, that had gone extremely well. He relaxed as he sat back, all worry gone from his mind, leaving only a warm, glowing hope. He made a mental note to put Rivienne on the list of candidates for the wedding party. She would make a lovely bridesmaid.
