Love in London

When Harry Met Ella

Saturday, October 1, 2016

I woke up to knocking on my apartment door. That's odd. Everyone I know in London has a key already. Glancing at my alarm clock it's 9:00 AM.

Stumbling out of my bedroom I walked into a muscle bound back.

Opening my eyes I saw a Black dress Pant, and white button down dress shirt.

"Miss Kingsley please return to your room. I will answer the door." My bodyguard, Dimitri, advised.

He and Rosalie started 2 weeks ago. It is still taking Some getting used to. I have never had to have someone guarding my life so closely before.

I turned around and went back to my room.

"Hello, how may I help you?"

I couldn't hear the response.

"What is your name Ma'am?" I could hear Dimitri ask.

I waited. Then I heard the clear sound of my Bestie. "I'm telling you Victoria is my best friend."

"Listen my name is Ella. TORI!"

I swung my bedroom door open and came out of my room and  into the living/foyer.

"Ella!" I squealed for joy. Dimitri let her in and closed the door.

I ran to my best friend gave her the biggest hug.

"You weren't kidding about having security now." She whispered.

"Well you try going into a bathroom and having a camera shoved under a stall door." I told her pulling back.

I turned to Dimitri "Dimitri, this is my best friend Ella. I'm sorry I didn't know she was coming into town."

Dimitri nodded his head "Miss Kingsley, If you weren't home Ella wouldn't have been let in. If we may I would like to speak with you later today to familiarize myself with your known associates." He informed both Ella and I.

"Most Definitely" I said and Dimitri nodded his head and walked towards my office.

Ella and I went into the kitchen

"You hungry?" I asked walking over to the fridge.

"Starving" she sat down on the island counter top.

I went about pulling ingredients out for an omelet.

Ella and I catching up on the news from home.

About 9:30 there was a knock at the door.

Dimitri opened the door while Ella was showing me the pictures that people were posting of us from school to show they new me before I met Harry. Losers. The lot of them.

Dimitri walked to the kitchen and cleared his throat.

"His Royal Highness is here Miss Kingsley."

Looking up as My smiling Ginger Prince came into the kitchen. Dimitri turned and left the three of us together.

Taking a moment to adjust to the fact we weren't alone Harry Spoke

"Good Morning Love, I just wanted to stop by and see if you wanted to grab breakfast but I see you have already taken care of that." He said coming up behind me and kissing my left cheek.

"Hello, I'm Harry." He said turning to Ella and extended his hand to shake hers.

"Hello Harry, I'm Ella" she replied accepting his hand and shaking.

"Ah yes, the sister from another mister" He recalled earning a giggle from me. I am rubbing off on him.

"Yes, That would be me." She laughed and got down from the counter.

"Pull up a chair I'll be done cooking momentarily."

My Love went over to the cabinet and pulled out a coffee mug and proceeded to make himself a cup of coffee.

"What are you two ladies up to today." My love asked pulling his cup from the Keurig and walking over to a bar stool and sitting.

"We've just been catching up we haven't made a plan yet. Any suggestions?" Ella asked taking a seat as well.

"Have you been to London before?" He asked after taking a sip of his coffee.

"Briefly as a child... as a stop over before going to Paris. We spent 1 day here and did the tour of Buckingham Palace."

I platted the omelette I was currently working on and passed it to Ella. Then pouring more egg in to the pan to make one for H.

"How long will you be in town?" He asked taking a sip from his mug.

"I'll be leaving on Wednesday, I'll be heading to the Atelier in Paris."

"Have you ever seen the Musical Wicked ?" He asked taking a sip of his coffee.

"I haven't actually." Ella said and it was like a light bulb went off over Ella's head.

"You know that is a great Idea." I said as I flipped Henry's omelette and then reaching for a plate.

"It is a great show." H agreed.

I platted Harry's omelette and passed it to him.

I cracked a few more eggs into the bowl. Whisking them up and pouring them into the pan to make myself an omelette.

After a few minutes I was platting and turning off the stove. Moving the pan from the hot burner

We spent the rest of the morning hanging out. The 3 of us.

Harry got a call from Catherine and he had to go.

Ella and I got ourselves together and went a caught a mid day showing of Wicked on the West end.

Finn and Siobhan came over when we got back from the theater.

The four of us had a great time and the girls slept over. Staying up late, making cookies, eating more of the raw dough than actually baking.

Crawling into bed in the wee hours of the morning. I looked at my phone and saw a message from my love.

Hope you and the girls are having a lovely time.

Before falling asleep I messaged Henry.

020 0720 1988 4:58 AM

We had a wonderful time my love. I didn't realize how much I missed Ella.

Looking over, at my best friend who's was already sound asleep with her grey silk sleep mask on.

I'll have to have her come back soon.

Friendsgiving is coming up you know...
