The City called Saint Michel

Chapter 7

"He had beautiful eyes. The kind you get
lost in. And I guess I did."

Juliette and Courfeyrac walked into a nearby park. "My parents would take me here when I was younger. They said it's a special place.", he explained. "It truly is a beautiful place." When she wouldn't look, Courfeyrac would look at the beautiful girl. It looked like her hair was made out of gold and her eyes reminded him of chocolate. She was some special. And he knew it. The park had many big trees and a bunch of daisies. He found a pretty daisy and put it in her hair. She looks at him and smiled. "This daisy reminded me of you. It's just as pretty as you." She blushed. "I love daisies. They're my favorite flowers." "Do you live in the bakery?", Courfeyrac asked. "I do", she replied,"and I also work there." "You gave Gavroche fresh bread. I'm must thank you a lot." "Did Gavroche give you the address to the bakery?" "Perhaps, perhaps he did." He laughs. "I really enjoy spending time with you.", she said. "Me too. Honestly, I wish this night wouldn't end." "Why did you leave the Café?" "Pardon?", he asked confused. "You mentioned that you came from the Café Musain. Why did you go?"
"A friend of mine, he fell in love with a girl. He doesn't even know her name. I guess, it just was too much for me.  You see, I also really like a girl. She's the most beautiful girl I've met before. She's different from all the other girls I know. She's kind, has a big heart. I've met her days ago but it already feels like I have known her forever.", he explained, not looking at her. "She must be a really special girl, then." "She is. She really is.", he looked at her again. She was no longer smiling, but more on the verge of tears. "Juliette, what is it? You can tell me." "It's not that simple. Nothing is.", she said. Courfeyrac didn't know what to say. He just decided to give her the space she needed.
If she just knew.....
