The End, Not Quite||An Anna and the French Kiss Story

Chapter 2||Paris

We head out of the plane, hand in hand and make our way to a hostel, considering we took a trip to Paris, we can't exactly afford a sparkling luxury hotel. I don't really mind though, considering it's basically just like our dorm rooms but in Paris, so I don't really mind. At all. Lola and Cricket are staying somewhere else, closer to the Olympic stadium. The whole gang is meeting up at our usual pizza place. Well, the whole gang except for Rashmi *sorry if I spelt her name wrong * and then Lola and Cricket and Josh's girlfriend of course. Etienne is chatting with the receptionist, trying to get us a room. After about 5 minutes we're lugging our suitcases up to a nice enough room with one bed and a stuffed chair along with a stout dresser. Etienne tosses off his shoes and shoves his bag into a corner. I take off my shoes and place them by the door and grab Etienne's as well. I start unpacking my clothes and turn to Etienne,

"So. We have to be at the pizza place in two hours and it'll take us about 20 minutes to get there so we have about an hour and 40 minutes to do whatever we like." I smile and lean against the dresser,

"Whatever we like?" he asks and raises his eyebrow, "did you have anything in mind my sweet Anna?"

I blush slightly and shrug, "did you?" I grin. He grins back and grabs my hand, pulling me forward. He starts kissing my neck and then slowly makes his way to my mouth. I kiss him back and my eyes close. He runs his hand through my hair and puts his other arm around my waist, when my phone rings,

"Will we ever be able to make out without being interrupted?" Etienne jokes. I laugh,

"I know! How rude." I laugh,

"Can't we just ignore it?" He asks and grabs my sleeve as I go off to get my phone,

"No! What if it's the queen or something," I say as I pick up the phone, "hello?" Not the queen. My mom,

"Hi sweetheart, did you arrive safely? How's Paris? How was the flight?"

"Hi mom, we're safe, Paris is great and the flight was great." I say quickly, wanting to get back to Etienne,

"You're sure? Is there something wrong?"

"I'm fine  mom, it's just that Etienne and I have to get to see our friends right about now." I lie,

"Oh yes, of course... Is St. Clair there now? Let me talk to him!" She asks excitedly, my mom loves Etienne which is actually pretty great but it's a bit odd. I sigh, 

"But mom! We seriously have to go, I love you! Bye!"

"Alright, fine, bye, love you!" 

I let out a sigh of relief as soon as we hang up. I go back to Etienne, 

"Sorry." I say and grab his hand and then his phone chimes, I groan and sit on the bed, 

"It's Josh, he wants us to get to the restaurant because he's all alone." He tells me. I laugh,

"Where's his girlfriend?" I ask. He shrugs and we grab our shoes and head out.
