2 different Entrance times to Vatican

Hello,
I needed to purchase two tickets to the Vatican Museums for my husband and I. Only 1 ticket left for 14:30 and 1 ticket left for 15:00 so I purchased. What's the best way to stall and wait for my husband to get thru @ 15:00? Will they push me along or do you think I can linger behind a little?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much.

I have a couple of suggestions. First, I would have your husband go with you and see if they will let him in with you at your earlier time. The last 2 times we went, we were almost an hour early each time and we were admitted both times. But that is no guarantee. If they will not let him in with you, there are plenty of places for you to sit to wait for him once you pass through security….no one will push you along.

Do you both tend to go through museums at the same pace? I am usually faster than my husband and am often sitting on a bench waiting for him to catch up. If he started a half hour before me, we would probably both finish about the same time. I would suggest having the slower person start at 2:30. That might reduce some of the wait time.
