Grayson
I was doing my regular jogging as a part of my daily cardiac exercise after school, wearing a black tank top with a baggy tracksuit with an earphone in his ear, listening to Twenty One Pilots in the park near the River Seine. I was still thinking about the infamous incident in school, when one of my friend, named Connor, was caught spray painting the school with words like "Don't Grow Up" "School Is Lame" and "My Butt Is Real", or when Melanie got caught making out in the toilet with a guy named Cameron.
"What an absurd day today" I thought.
As I passed through the beautiful scenery that's surrounding me, with birds chirping a harmonious melody, couples hand in hand and staring at each other's eyes as if there's no tomorrow and an overwhelming amount of tourist taking pictures and being mesmerized by this beautiful country, like it's brand new. I just couldn't stop and think
"When will I fall in love with a person who will love me the way I do, will still have that young love even when we're old ,unable to break free from our past, present or future and do all the things that can't be captured in a photo or a film strip. When will I find my "her", when will I find my Katniss, my Tris and when will I find my Harry".
As I walked past the busy park, with tourist hurrying to take a picture of anyone they can grasp, I noticed a boy with brown hair, icy blue eyes, and a familiar smirk that comes in his face and he knew immediately who that was. Luke. With no sense of realization, I yelled at the top of my lungs
"LUKE MICHAEL GEORGE!"
I turned around, amused and returned to his smirk, which most people famously refer to as "The Luke George Charming Smirk".
"Well, well, well, if it isn't Mr Grayson Blue jogging in the park" he gasps. "Can I get your autograph Mr.Blue" with a playful tone at the back of his voice.
I smiled. We've been friends for 10 years and yet he still never left the 5 year old persona behind him. As we strolled through the flower garden, I noticed a variety of picturesque flowers, but one that captured my eyes were the red rose. It was standing there with tranquility, anticipating Death, it was as beautiful as a precious ruby.
I heard Luke interrupting his thoughts with the words "Would you like to go to Te'Amo, it's a new popular trending hippie hotspot where you get the best divine piece of coffee ever. They're coffee are so 'fetching'".
"Still trying to make 'fetching' a thing I guess?" I mumbled.
he replied "Of course!!! Anyways, people say it's a great place for a kiss or a-"
"Woah there! we're not at that stage of our friendship.....yet." I interrupted with a grin.
Luke smirked. Me and Luke both looked at each other in the eye and laughed so hard, tourists must've thought we lost our minds and took out their cameras and snapped a picture of us.
After arriving home, I quickly showered and changed to an all denim attire with denim jeans and jacket. I tried to look as simplistic and cool as I can be. Before going, I reminded myself to tell my mom personally of my whereabouts.
"Mom! I'm going to this new hippie coffee shop and I'm just gonna remind you so you don't do that again".
"What are you talking about? Of course you can go, I'm not like a regular mom I'm a cool mom" mom replied with a smile.
"Last time I didn't tell you, somebody aka you thought I was being abducted for porn when in reality I was eating beignet with the next door neighbor" my voice retorted.
Feeling embarrassed, My mom said goodbye to me as I left the house. As the sun sets, leaving behind an shade of light for the Eiffel Tower and slowly dissipate into night.
When I finally made it to Te'Amo, I checked my phone and saw a text from Luke telling me that he couldn't come due to the fact that he fell when he was on his way to the coffee shop. Feeling disappointed, I decided to get a hot, warm glass of coffee alone, with no one to enjoy it with.
Maybe it's not so bad. Besides Luke can be a little bit too much too handle, especially if you get his order wrong. I thought to himself.
Before I got the chance to open the door, it swung right open with a nervous girl who then spilled her green tea mocha all over my jacket.
I observed the nervous girl. She had blonde hair, Ariel blue eyes, red lips and a face I find 'cute'
The girl looked at me and frantically said " I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry" with a sweet soothing sound and a nervous tone.
With no caution, I did something that will change his life forever. I said "It's okay" as I holds her arms, "Do u want to get another cup of coffee inside with me?". Before I knew it, the girl agreed and we casually went inside the coffee shop.
