Diamonds For Dinner.

Chapter 14

"So where to, girls?" Liam asked us. "I don't know let's just get in the car and then decide" I replied back as I got carried away in the beautiful clothes that I saw in the store. "You want this?" Liam said pointing out to the white dress I was swooning over. "You're amazing" I complemented his designer skills. "I'll gift it to you" He took out the dress from the rack and handed it to me. "Okay you know, I will never say no to this" I chuckled. "C'mon you two we have to go somewhere you can't just keep standing in the store all day!" Jenny said as she stood at the other rack. "I get it. You want me to gift you something as well, right?" Liam looked over at Jenny laughing. Jenny started laughing too."No you idiot!" she continued "C'mon now get in the car you two" she said walking out the door. We both followed her out.
"So...anyone have any idea where we're going?" I broke the silence. "I'm starving..let's go eat something first" Liam said. "Yeah me too" Jenny joined in. We listened to the radio and when our own songs came, we three sang along crazily. Not caring what the people thought.
Jenny stopped the car in front of a five star hotel. "We're here!" She squeaked in excitment."Get out, I'm so hungry!" I said as I opened the door. We got out of the car and as I was the first one to get out, the two followed behind me. We headed straight to an empty table and sat down. "Okay guys now let's talk, Liam how's it going with you?" Jenny questioned. "It's going good, leaving to Paris again in a few days, I seriously sometimes want to quit this job and sit at home and maybe get married too" Liam confessed."Ohh, by the last part, I think I have missed way too much...now now, don't be shy, who is she?" Jenny said raising an eyebrow, smirking. "No one miss Jennifer, I can assure you if I ever get to the point I am getting married, I'll let you know" Liam said smirking. "Of course, you wouldn't want yourself dead before your own wedding now" Jenny laughed and continued "Well, someone's awfully quite" she said looking at me. "Okay on my side, well nothing much going on, been going out with James since the past few days and oh did I tell you guys? I'm going to Toronto for a concert sometime later and then I'm back again here actually" I said tucking my hair lock behind my ear. "Well bring me some Canadian goodies while you're at it" Jenny said as Liam joined saying the same.
The waiter came to our table and handed us the menu, we selected our favorites and gave our order. "So how's it going with James, Lana?" Liam asked. "It's going good" I answered. "So how long have you both been dating?" He inquired. "Maybe a month now" I answered again. "No! We went to that party way back, I think two months" Jenny said smirking. "It doesn't matter how long we've been together, we love each other and that's all that counts" I stated. "Yeah" Liam nodded.
The waiter came with our food and we surely ate like a hungry lot we were. Liam paid the tab, as he would always when we three would go out, in the start of our lunchs and dinner, me and Jenny would insist to pay the tab since none of us was short on cash but he would always say that it was his duty to pay nevertheless if we were millionaires even and frankly, I liked that.
I liked someone who wouldn't care if you had a million, they'd give you a million all over again. Someone who would take care of you, provide you with whatever you needed and spoil you, even with love if it was all they offer.
"Guys I'm really tired" Liam said yawning as we got back in the car. "I was thinking about a movie..." Jenny trailed off. "No movie today, I want to have a nap now despite the fact I didn't really do much today" I supported Liam. "Alright you both, I'll drop you off first then you" Jenny said pointing Liam first and then me. We both just nodded.
The car ride was simple and quite, we didn't talk much and just silently sat, which was for me, a bit strange because we would always talk even if there was nothing to talk about.
Some people, talking about the weather to, seems amazing and never a bore.
But only some.
Or a few.
Throughout the car ride. I kept thinking about James, it wasn't a surprise that he was on my mind and that's what I feared the most - I didnot wanted to fall deeper in love without knowing the other person fell the same way. I knew from the very start that love was all about the risks, love was a risk but I also knew that, falling for the right person is never a risk - To me, I never understood the concept of wrong and right person, from a certain perspective they all seemed wrong and from another, they all seemed right.
My definition for wrong and right, for myself, was very clear - the wrong one was the one with who nothing felt right & the right was the one with who nothing felt wrong and that was the real mystery, to find out what feeling was wrong and what was right. To me, every feeling I felt was something I couldn't label wrong nor right. I wasn't even sure myself what was wrong or right even when it came to my feelings.
It's not so easy to label something you're not even sure of yourself. I truly believe that when you find someone who's the right one, you don't feel the need to label any feeling. It's all very clear, what you've been hunting for your whole life is right in front of you and without a doubt, you accept it with its flaws because you know you have them too and without any guesses you hold the hand, firmly, to never let go.
For you don't want to go hunting, ever again because you fear you'll never find someone so beautiful.
