Charlie had grown really fond of Kip since Italy. With her own Mother absent from her life, she looked up to Maggie's with a kind a appreciative reverance. It was like she and Kat had become a part of the Christos family and she had to admit, she liked the feeling of belonging again.
Kip's text said the Four Seasons at four. A high tea in Manhattan. She wore a dress Mags had given her for Christmas the year before. Slipping on a wear of heels, also from her fashionista friend, she left, taking the car. Althought she couldn't make it all the way into the city, she parked at the Macy's lot and caught a cab from there.
The m'aitre de smile, "Ms Sheppard-" He nodded at her, "Mrs Christos is already here. I've seated the two of you with a view of the park. I know how much the two of you like it." Smiling softly, Charlie nodded her thanks and going to find Kip.

When Kip had walked into the building only five minutes previous she had the reaction she had grown to become fond of. Men looked at her, and women wanted to be her. The five foot nothing beauty was very much herself on her outing's in New York, having found the same love for the city as her eldest daughter had. In six inch heels, the perfect pencil line shirt and a button top shirt that screamed gorgeous it was easy for everyones eyes to be draw to her. And of course, it helped that she didn't look a day over twenty five. She was actually on the phone to Tex as Charlie come into sight. As always Kip liked everyone, and her son in law was no different. He'd even offered to have Flic for the afternoon. The little blonde was getting to meet Mr Simon Cowell this afternoon, and would get to sit in (or rather colour throughout) Tex's meeting with the well known millionaire and one of his acts; the beautiful Cheryl Cole. Tex was ringing to make sure he could take Flic for icecream before Kip picked her up. Waving, she clicked the phone closed and rose to kiss Charlie's cheek. "Hello love." She smiled, and sat once more. "How are you?" A question that was often never answered fully until much later with Charlotte.

Charlie smiled, "Fine, thanks." She gave her a hug before sitting down. "Midtown traffic's a mess as always- Though I made better time than I thought I would. Luckily, they know our faces- Since being one of you (A Christos she meant, not a devil) equals apparent celebrity."

Kip laughed; "Well of course it does." She smiled gently and called the waiter to them. "Luc owns half of the city, and I'm almost sure Mags or Tex controls the rest." Kip winked at Charlie and turned to the man stood expectantly.

Charlie relaxed back into her seat and smiled at the man in the penguin suit. This world had become far less foreigh to her over the last year or so but it still amazed her. She listened as Kip ordered their usual and the man bowed, going to do her bidding. "So how have you been? And Gwyn and Flic?"

"Oh you know, love, we're fine. Gwyn's fretting over Maggie and the pregnancy and the moving. And Flic thinks shes a rockstar." Kip smiled, talking contently. "You?"

"Kat and I have settled into a studio apartment in the old neighbourhood." She bit her lip and fretted with the napkin, "But it looks like she and I will be moving soon."
