Paris Or Bust


"1067, 1068 ...... 1900.... 2000" I reached it!!! My Paris ticket. Finally!!!

I grabbed my puppy and kissed her. "Meg! I'm going to Paris!!!" Obviously my dog didn't say anything but she was obviously happy for me.


"Mom, Mom I've got enough for my Paris ticket"


"Sweetie the ticket alone costs $2000 what about visiting Paris, hotel costs and other stuff"


"Oh, yeah totally forgot about that"


I rushed off to work hoping to make a few extra bucks and get to Paris by the end of this year.

A FEW MONTHS LATER


"Hey Natalie, Nathan walked in"


"Hey Nathan"


"I've got to talk to you"


"Sure Nathan"


He took me to a corner and sighed


"What is it Nathan?"


"I'm breaking up with you"


"What?" I was heartbroken, my heart and soul shattered into a billion unfixable pieces, like a glass window shattering to pieces.

My mouth wide open, i started counting how long we had been together

I had so many questions that i wanted to ask an-

"Yeah I'm sorry"

Nathan smirked a little


"But why? What did I do?"


"Nothing, I just want to stay single"


"Oh, it's okay Nathan, I never want to see you again okay?"

Flashbacks took over my mind, our first date, the first time we had ever met.... I tried to erase those wonderful, unforgettable moments and i just stop there looking at the back of his head- before he turned around and waved at me.

Nathan left a trail of his wonderful smelling cologne as i was left sniffing the air. I'll still love you Nathan, i thought. At that moment i wanted to take back everything i'd said in the last minute.


After my long shift i caught the bus and saw Nathan with his new girlfriend. So much for wanting to break up with me to stay single, he had lied to my face and smiled his way through the bullshit.

I was torn, dead and I had no idea of what to do now, all my future dreams, shattered and my dream of going to Paris with him, gone like it just vanished out of nowhere.


Even though I wanted to go to Paris, I sort of hesitated because I wanted him to be with me and now that he wasn't going to be with me, I just felt like a piece of me had disappeared.


But I'm going to save up anyways because I'm going to move on from him, find a new guy in Paris, get married under the Eiffel Tower and everybody else can go get stuffed. Well dreams come true anyways....


Six Months Later...


I finally saved up for my plane and I was leaving tomorrow with my best friend Sarah. This would be great. Two best friends- nay two SINGLE best friends in the city of love! Perfect, just perfect.

I took my seat, which was next to a window and waited for Sarah to arrive but she never did, in her place was a boy who looked like he was around 21, my age otherwise. I asked him

"Do you know Sarah?"


"I know too many"


"Sarah Clifford?"


"Nope"


"Oh"


"Why do you ask?"


"My friend Sarah said she was supposed to be flying with me and when she booked a ticket it was next to mine"


"Now your talking, yes this girl called Sarah sold me her Paris ticket but her last name wasn't Clifford it was Hemmings"


"Wow...."


"Hey, you shouldn't be upset, I'm the one who should be because my girlfriend was supposed to be flying to Paris with me but she found another person and she's going to America now"


"Really? My boyfriend was supposed to go to me to Paris but he found this other girl called Clara Green"


"Clara Green is my girlfriend"


"No way"


'Is your boyfriend Nathan Sky?"


"Yes, wow this is unbelievable!"


And the conversation just went on and on and I realized I was falling in love with him.


"What's your name?"


"Natalie"

"What's yours?"


"Josh"
