The following week was basically me going around the city. I kept working with Jean Baptiste and Ezra. Ezra and I have become closer and he has done progress in the last days. Corentin left to go to Berlin yesterday night and he arrived well. He was going to start practicing next Monday which is three days away and he looked pretty excited.

I was leaving Coco with my parents this time since my dad was in Christmas vacation already he didn't had to go to school or university to classes anymore until January. I packed my things only for staying two or three days in Dortmund. Melanie called about five times a day this week just to making sure I was going there. Also I called Natalie to grab a coffee together when I arrived there. She was pretty excited to see me.

"Oh look at you." Marcel said when he saw me.

He came running and hugged me lifting me a bit and giving a small spin, I blushed.

"But how about you?" I asked pointing at his outfit, he smiled widely.

"You like this?" He asked dancing a bit. I laughed.

"Oh please stop embarrassing yourself." Melanie said. I laughed.

"Fine." He said looking at me and smiling tenderly.

"Did Mel told you?" He asked, I looked at him confused.

"What?"

"I couldn't picked you up because the organizer just left. We were finishing the details of tomorrow's opening and-

"Oh please, don't worry. I had the best company." I said punching softly Mel's arm, she smiled widely.

"Perfect! You wanna see the clothes?" He asked.

"Yes of course!" I exclaimed, he laughed and led me to the studio.

Marcel's apartment was really big for being an apartment. It had four rooms, one big living room, kitchen, laundry room and a terrace. He had one room, other room was Mel's, the other was his studio and the last one was another guests room which was going to be mine but Robin called last minute and I offered myself sleeping in Mel's room, I really didn't had any problem with that. Mel and I have shared room before, when we lived in Paris in the same apartment, every time it rained she'd usually dragged herself to my room and sleep with me. She's afraid of thunders and she had a leak on the ceiling and it aimed just in her face which was annoying.

"It'll be like when we were in Paris." I said and she rolled her eyes.

"FINE." She said and giggled hugging me finally.

"So I am making bbq tonight, to thank you and Robin for coming all this way from Berlin and Paris, to be with me." Marcel said.

"Sounds amazing." I said smiling.

"Thank you bro." Robin said.

I was surprised that Marco wasn't there that night. It was only the four of us. Melanie was missing Joan but he had traveled to Nantes to be with his family for holidays. Mel understood that but still she was really upset about it, so she was moody all the time.

"I miss him." She whispered to me while seeing a picture of Joan on her phone. I rolled my eyes.

"Is it that bad?" I asked and she looked at me with glassy eyes.

"It's what love makes to you." She said in a dramatic tone,we both laughed.

"I'll be back in a sec, he's calling." She said and went to her room.
