Virginia was humming slightly to herself, and looking through her wedding magazines. She looked up every so often to make sure that no one was coming after her.

She didn't care what Wolf said. She wasn't going to be paranoid. She wasn't going to hide. She was going to live her life, deranged weirdos or not.

She was, however, going to be careful, and aware of her surroundings.

Which, honestly, wasn't much different from what a single woman had to do in New York, biking to and from work alone and all.

There is a small blonde woman nearby who might catch Virginia's eye, if only because she keeps looking over ta Virginia. Claire isn't trying to be nosy, but she has noticed the bridal magazines and it makes her smile. She's glad to see so many people in the bar happily starting their lives together.

Virginia noticed and being very friendly, she waved. "Hi. Don't be shy. I may be fat but it doesn't mean I bite. Unless you're made of chocolate."

Claire smiles back and approaches her. "Is it coming soon, then? I was huge before my son was born. But then, I never thought he would actually come out."

She joins her at the table, her hand out-stretched. "I'm Claire, by the way."

"Ooh, not for a while. Months and months," Virginia said, shaking her hand. "And it had better come out because already it's daddy's getting impatient. And I'm Virginia Lewis."

"It's nice to meet you," she smiles. "Do you know what it's going to be yet?"

"Nice to meet you too," Virginia said with a warm smile. "I could really use the advice of another mommy. And all I know is that its healthy and a quarter-wolf."

There was a time when that would elicited more of a reaction from Claire than a kind smile. As it is, Snow is a very good friend, and she has plenty of experience with wolf-babies.

"My son is almost three months old. I'm still learning things too, but I'll be glad to answer any questions you might have. There aren't too many of us mommies around here."

"Really? I just talked to another pregnant lady named Bethany. Seems like there's pregnant ladies and people getting married all over the place," Virginia said with a grin.

"Oh, I know Bethany. She's really nice." Claire smiles. "And there are so many people getting married soon. It's unbelievable."

"Yeah, if it weren't for the fact that I was engaged before I'd got here, I'd be afraid Wolf and I'd look like we were copying or something," Virginia said, bemused.

"Oh, don't worry about that." She smiles. "It's nice that so many people have found someone to love."
