"Makes sense." She chuckled.
Sophie looked around the little shop, it was so cute. So, vintage! She loved it, the antique air of it all was just so nice. It was almost like she was back in time, oh the irony.
She laughed then smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Sophie." she held out her hand for the lady to shake it. She could feel the nervous itch starting to set in. Need. To. Scratch. Must. Ignore. she thought keeping the smile on her face.

"Oh, you've got a delightful girlfriend, Gabriel," Celesta teased, shaking Sophie's hand.
"Obviously I think so too, Aunt Celesta," Gabe retorted teasingly.
"Oh, don't back-talk, boy; I'm old," she scolded.
Celesta turned her signature, Cavaliere-blue eyes on Sophie and smiled warmly. Gabe could already tell that she liked Sophie; he was glad for that. It was difficult for any of the Cavaliere to have relationships if the matriarchs of the family, Gabe's grandmother Marguerite and aunt Celesta, disliked them.
"Can I get you some gelato, Sophie dear?" she asked.

Sophie blushed a bit, she hadn't really thought of herself as delightful, more like kind but delightful? Never crossed her mind. She smiled.
"Thank you miss, but I prefer to see myself more as a kind and caring person." she said shaking the woman's hand. "Gabe you shouldn't talk back to her, she can still beat you with a wooden spoon." she chuckled.
"That would be lovely miss Celesta." Sophie smiled. She wondered if all of Gabe's family had those stark blue eyes that made you feel like you were always being watched.

"See? She has good sense, unlike you," Celesta teased.
The old woman turned and heated up the pizzelle iron. With an expert hand, she heated the cookie, quickly removed it and molded it into a cone. While it cooled in its mold, she pulled an icecream scoop out of warm water and began loading gelato into the cone. She stuck a little purple plastic spoon and a British flag in the gelato before handing the cone to Sophie.
"Your usual, Gabe?" she asked her nephew.
"Of course!" he responded cheekily.

"Thank you." Sophie said taking the treat. How could she not like this woman? She was nice, thought Sophie was great and seened like such a good person.
She laughed at the british flag that was in it. That was cute, really, it made her laugh out loud. She waved the little flag like she would with one of the little ones they gave at parades and such. She hadn't done that in several years, last time she did it was when she was about seven and she still wore her hair in pig tails and braids. She hoped no one remembered those days.
"This is really good, I would love to learn how to make this.." she nodded.

Celesta smiled and winked at Sophie over her shoulder as she went about making another pizzelle cone. They were her specialty, even though she had taught her grandchildren and nieces and nephews how to make them. An old family recipe, she insisted. Gabe's grandmother never made them. Then again, Nana Marguerite didn't cook all that often. Aunt Celesta insisted that it was because she couldn't cook all that well. Gabe suspected that it was actually because she disliked cooking; she was a great pianist, though! She'd taught Gabe, his siblings and his cousins how to play.
"Ill make you a deal, kiddo. Where are you staying?" Celesta asked.
Gabe laughed as he accepted the cone (sugar-cookie dough gelato! yum!) from his aunt and caught sight if the little green sword stuck in it.
"Still haven't gotten over that, have you?" he asked.

"I'm staying at the leaky cauldron, the entrance to the alley." Sophie smiled.
Was Celesta actually going to teach her how to make gelato? Finally! Something new to make at home, something fresh, something that wasn't from England! She smiled, yay!
"I'm not big on symbolism, but can I have some insight as to what the green sword stands for?" she asked.

"Well, I'm a lonely old woman with grandchildren that are too busy fighting to visit me, so I'll make you a deal. If you move in and help out around here, I'll teach you the old family recipes," Celesta promised with a wink.
Gabe and Celesta looked at each other and burst out laughing at the memory when Sophie asked about the sword.
"It's not a symbolic thing as much as it's nostalgic," Gabe began once the laughing subsided. "When I was around six and got my wand and my first real sword, my grandfather decided to teach me a hex that he knew. I was so proud that when I saw Aunt Celesta next I tried to show it off, but I mispronounced one of the words and wound up turning my new sword green. I still have that green sword, by the way."

"I'd have to ask my brother on that, but I'd love to come stay here. Teddy would like something new I think, we've been staying there for a whole year and Tom's been really nice, but it's a bit small for the two of us." Sophie smiled.
She turned a deep shade of red and tried to hide her face. She was so embarrassed about that!
"O-oh, I feel so stupid right now... I'm not much of a sword fighter, I'm more of a guard dog.. litterally..." she stared at the ground.

"Oh, we have several open rooms up there," Celesta replied, pointing in the general direction of where Celesta and her husband lived. "I'm sure we could take you two in."
Gabe laughed and slung his free arm across Sophie's shoulders, drawing her closer to himself and kissing the side of her head.
"It's no big deal! I hadn't told you that story yet," he laughed. "It was from so long ago, I would've forgotten it if Aunt Celesta didn't take it upon herself to constantly remind me."

"I'll talk to Teddy about it. I finally have something to do with my time other than cook, shop and clean, oh and what would you prefer me to call you? Because I'm unsure.." she scratched her head.
She turned a darker shade of red when Gabe kissed the side of her head, was is even possible to get any redder? She just felt so embarrassed and even though they were trying to make her feel better it didn't change what she thought.
"I'm still embarrassed.." she muttered.

Celesta smiled at Sophie warmly, observing her and Gabe together and mentally approving. She hadn't seen her nephew so happy in over a year; she'd started to worry about Gabe, going around all zombie-like.
"Just call me Aunt Celesta, dear; everyone does," she requested.
Gabe smiled a little and shook his head, choosing to accept that she wasn't going to listen to him on this one.

"I'll remember that, and I will let you know as soon as I talk to my brother about staying here." she smiled. She was happy, they were getting a new place to stay, and new recipes! "Oh, and how much would you want for rent?"
She rested her head on Gabe's shoulder, was was a lot more comfortable than it looked. She also just wanted to be the good girlfriend.

"You're helping out around the store and keeping 'Nando and I from getting bored with each other; that's more than enough. No rent necessary," Celesta chuckled.
"Nando is her husband, my uncle Ferdinand," Gabe explained to Sophie in a whisper.
He smiled a little and moved his free arm down around her waist when she put her head on his shoulder. She was a good girlfriend, much as she often fretted otherwise. He usually let her go for a little while when she got like that so that she could calm down a bit.

"Oh, okay.." Sophie said with a nervous chuckle. She deffinitly wasn't going to get used to italians anytime soon. They were all different too, she smiled. She was glad she had some one there to explain who people were.
"Thank you." she whispered to Gabe. She was so confused when she called someone Nando, it made her think of a resteraunt in Doncaster. Nandos! Great place, very good food.
