French lover

18.

Adelina

After the very long trip back to Germany, the Müller parents decided to visit their aunt and uncle, from the mother's side.
3 loud knocks, the door opened, a blonde woman in a white dress opened it.
"Hallöchen, Hans und meine Schwester! (Hello, Hans and my sister!)" she grinned, stepping inside, letting us in.
"Hallöchen." we all smiled, and walked in the huge house.

"Do you like America?" my aunt, Kara asked as she turned to Finn and I.

"Oh, for sure Adelina does!" my brother smirked.

"Mmm, is it about a boy?" she narrowed her eyes and smirked.

"That might be it.. But I like it there because.. I like my new friends and that place, I don't know.." I blushed.

"You don't need to lie, we have to discuss this later. Cookies?" she handed us a plate with cookies on it.
"Thanks!" Finn grinned and took 2, and I just blankly stared at them, shaking my head.
Maybe she's right, the only reason I like Avonlea is because of Jerry. I already miss him.
"Do you wanna meet up with our old friends?" Finn asked me.

"Sure." I shrugged and we went to the kitchen, telling the adults where we are going.
As we went outside, I looked around to see if I can recognize anyone. Berlin's streets, everything is peaceful, now, but who knows what's gonna happen in the future.
Finn and I walked to our favorite store, and there, we saw 3 boys.
"Is that..." I whispered to my brother.
"That's right." he smirked and walked up to the 3 boys, and it was Karl and his friends.
"Auf keinen Fall (no way), Adelina and Finn?" Karl's eyes widened, his smile grew bigger and he hugged us.
"Did you miss us?" my brother asked.
"Yes! Klaus and Stefan did aswell." he smiled and they all started talking, leaving me out. Boy stuff, but as I glanced at the window, I saw a similar girl.

I ran outside, and she remembered me, we hugged eachother, she was Zelda, my dearest friend.
"Oh my god, I missed you!" she grinned. Freckles on her face, brown hair and blue eyes, around the same height as me, she was the perfect match for me.
"How are you?"

"Better, now. Do you like America?"

"Yeah, it's actually.. Pretty great!" I smiled

"Tell me about it. Do you like someone?"

"Uhmm.." I looked down and blushed, then back up and nodded.,

"He must be lucky!" she jumped and clapped. "Even though, Karl is obsessed with you."

"What?"

"Since you left, he kept talking about you, he was honest with his feelings."

"Oh.. This is.. Awkward."

"It is. But what's the boy's name?"

"Jerry."

"Sounds--.. adorable!"

"He is. His french accented voice, his smile, his eyes, his hair, his personality.. I love talking to him, or even just looking at him. He gives me peace, somehow."

"Someone's in love."

"Who is?" Karl and his friends walked out of the store, and joined our converstation.

"Noone." I sighed and looked in his eyes, he was a little bit upset.

"Anyways.. Where is Millie and Chloe?" Stefan turned to Zelda, I just knew they had a connection, you could tell just by looking at them, or the way they are looking at eachother.
Zelda was almost as beautiful as Ruby Gillis was, but she is way cuter. Ruby is unique and pretty, I don't understand why Gilbert wouldn't accept her. Okay, he probably likes Anne, but I feel bad for Ruby.
"Hallooo?? Adel, are you still with us?" Klaus and Karl were calling for my name, then Finn spoke up.
"She's probably daydreaming." and smirked.

"Sush. I was just thinking of something.."

"Or someone." my brother finished.
I glared at him, and he giggled.
I wonder how is Jerry or what is he doing right now, probably helping the Cuthberts, or.. I don't know, spending time with his family.
The only thing I worried about was that, he would forget me or wouldn't love me anymore when I would return to Avonlea. Or, Diana wouldn't love Finn. I hope she does, my brother is really into her. Whenever she's mentioned, he looks up, or his eyes sparkle, or maybe even blushes a little.
I never seen them together though, maybe they have secret dates, or anything, really, but if they do, I would be pissed because Finn didn't tell me.

Finn and I went back to Kara's house in the afternoon, and at night, we had chicken for dinner.
"So kids, did you meet up with your old friends?"

"Yeah, it was fun." Finn replied.

"Agreed." I smiled.

"Good. Go to sleep early, you must be tired." mom said.

"A bit. Also dad, when are we going back to Avonlea?" I asked.

"In a few months." he shrugged, my eyes widened.

"When exactly?"

"I dont know. Don't worry, you will see your lover soon."

"I- I didn't ask because I wanna see Jerry."

"Then Gilbert." and he continued eating his chicken.

"He's just a friend." I rolled my eyes, Finn and Kara giggled.
"Not funny." I sighed.

"So, is it Jerry or Gilbert?" Kara asked as she looked at me, smirking.

"What?"

"Which one of them is the chosen one?"

"Aunt Kara!" I rolled my eyes. "..Jerry. But it's nothing serious."

"Thought so."

"Dad. Could you please just not..."

"Could you just stop arguing for once?" my mom sighed.

"Yes, sorry." I said and stood up, and went upstairs to the guest room. I changed my clothes, and went to lay down on the bed.
Soon, someone opened the door, it was probably Finn. He changed his clothes and laid down next to me, then I turned around to face him.
"When do you think we're gonna go back?"

"I don't know."

"Do you miss Diana?"

"Uhm... Yeah.. Do you miss Jerry?"

"Obviously." I sighed "The only reason I want to go back is mainly because of him and my friends."

"Yeah, me too.. Plus, I never went to that school in Avonlea, and I wanna make some friends there."

"Someone's lonely." I chuckled.

"Sush. Go to sleep." he turned around.

"Good night to you too." I laughed and fell asleep pretty soon, dreaming about my french boy.
