M & Em (Mika Fanfiction - English version)

Roses are red...

Mika was right. Lola was entering a restaurant with Pascal. He was an elegant young man with black hair and very dark eyes. They looked well together. Lola also had dark hair by the shoulders and green eyes lke the color of the grass. They sat on an esplanade and Mika was behind a tree peeking.

Emília: What are you doing?

Mika: Making sure he asks her to marry him.

Emília: As if you could do anything about it. (opens eyes) Hey, mMaybe we can really do something!

Mika: What's the idea?

Emília: Well ... I do not know ...

Mika: Let's say hello to them.

Mika went to the couple. Emília still tried to grab his arm but could not.

Mika: Bonjour!

Lola: Mika ?!

Emília appeared behind Mika and smiled as she waved.

Lola: Emília ?! What are you doing here?

Mika: We were just passing by and we saw that you were here. I have not seen you for a long time, Pascal. Everything all right?

Pascal: Yes.

Lola: Pascal, that's Emília, the girl I told you about.

Pascal: Hi. Lola said a lot about you. Your ideas are very original.

Emília: Thank you.

Pascal spoke very good English but had a very strong French accent. Nothing compared to Lola's.

Mika: You're going to stay here for how long?

Pascal: Unfortunately, it's only today during the day because I don't have a place to stay here in Paris.

Mika: Oh! What a shame!

Emília: We shouldbetter go. Let's leave you gyus alone. See you soon.

Emília grabbed Mika's coat and pulled him out of there until they were no longer visible.

Emília: Did you hear what he said?

Mika: Yes. Poor thing.

Emília: I have an idea! Me and Lola are sharing the room in the hotel. I can give up my room and Pascal can stay there to sleep.

Mika: Sleeping ... just a way to say is not it? (Blinks the eye) And you?

Emília: I was hoping you'd give me a room.

Mika: Okay. Done. And now what are we going to do more?

Emília: We have to tell Lola to not let him leave.

Mika: I got an ideia!

Mika grabbed Emília's hand and pulled her over to a lady who was selling flowers on the street and ordered a dozen of red roses.

Emília: Mika ... it was not necessary.

Mika: Do not be silly! Let's go to the hotel!

Emília: M! Do not think it would be like that! You give me roses and then just take me to your hotel room!

Mika: Em! I'm not one of those! Now seriously we have to go.

They went to the hotel and when they were entering Emília's and Lola's room, from a door beside him, appearedRichard.

Richard: Mika and Emília ???

Mika: Hello.

Richard: What ... are ... what are you doing?

Emília: Nothing.

Richard: You seem very enthusiastic, Mika.

Mika: I am but now we have to go.

They entered the room and spread the petals of the roses across the room. They put candles on the table and went out again. At the reception they asked that when a couple entered that room they would bring him champagne.

Mika: Well, I'm going to call Lola to say that she can come here with him.

Emília: I'll order a milkshake and I'll sit next to Richard.

Emília ordered a chocolate and strawberry milkshake and went to Richard's side who was drinking coffee.

Emilia: Is everything alright, Richard?

Richard: Yes... And you?

Emília: I hope so. We had to prepare the room for Lola and Pascal. But you can not tell them anything! We scattered rose petals, arranged candles even...

Richard: Wow wow wow! Wait! The roses were for that? Those roses Mika had was for your plan?

Emília: Yes, of course.

Richard: (smiles) Okay ...

He was smiling like an idiot. Emília could feel that he took a deep breath with that information. There was no question. He was really relieved to know that the roses were for the plan and not for Mika. He, seeing Mika with the branch, must have been thinking that someone had offered them to him! That's why he asked so many questions! He was jealous! Now everything was right on Emília's head.

Mika arrived and broke her thoughts.

Mika: She asked a lot of questions but I did not give her any big explanations. I just said he was staying with her and you were staying at my place.

Richard: You're going to be together for them ...

Mika: Yes. Everything for that to work out.

Emília wondered if Richard would be jealous of her as well. He had no reason for it. Lola and Pascal were apparently not the only ones needing help.

Emília: I ... I'm going to the bathroom.

Emília got up and went to the bathroom door but did not enter. She stood on a corner peeking at the table where Mika and Richard were standing.

Richard: It's very beautiful what you're doing.

Mika: Yes. You can help.

Richard: Oh yes? How?

Mika: Since you'll be here you can be alert and see if they show up and if everything runs as planned and you can let us know.

Richard: Okay. I can come here to watch them come in and see if they bring the champagne. But I will not spy on them!

Mika: Deal.

Emília arrived and sat next to Richard.

Mika: Em, Richard will be our source of information!
