"So, let me say this... your boy-i meant ex- boyfriend stood you up ? That's a total dıck move if I tell you" Cynthia saw Mr. Silvestre scowled and his eyebrow raised up at the same time,

His voice covered with irritation as she tell her story and so to why they stumbled upon each other,

She felt like this is all a dream, her sitting in this beautiful yet down to earth pub that served scrumptious food and spectacular drinks. Not to mention it's just only her and her boss, what an insane dream this is.

"Yeah, it's a bummer but-i meant I knew this would happen... I guess I'm used to it" she reason her story and take a bite of the yummy food.

Good lord this beef is beyond the world, "You knew this would happen and you're still with him ?" He raised his eyebrow and look at Cynthia as if she's the most foolish human ever.

She answer his question with just a small smile, you could say she is indeed stupid. She is hoping on something she knew she wouldn't get, she tried her best to be What that man want the most.

But in the end it wasn't enough, truth to be said the love and the passion is already diminished. The passion she hold on so much is gone and she is fine with that, she knew that she have to moved on.

There wasn't anyone to be fault here, and when she and Mr. Silvestre talk, she knew she needs to moved on. The man told her that there are things that are much better and we shouldn't stick to the past so much,

The two of them finished the dinner and decide to walk around London, she didn't know why he would spent his precious time with her.

She is nothing but someone who blend into the middle of the crowd, she wasn't on the front or back where anyone would notice her.

She is someone who contempt with blending, she may not get noticed but she doesn't care. Her eyes sneak a peek to Mr. Silvestre a few time and there are few time she would look at him for a long time,

With only a dinner, she felt so safe with him. He make sure to not leave her behind and took care of her in the most little thing. His words may not be spoken but his gestures shows it all,

His eyes spoke the most actually, since they left the pub she is the one who would converse with him and she is definitely fine with that, lucas doesn't like it if she talks to much. He said she is like an annoying chirping birds,

But when she look at Mr. Silvestre he seems so contempt and comfortable to listen to her words, he would smiled and laugh at her jokes and vice versa.

His taste and intelligence may different from the others but it what stands out the most, the way he talk with such an intellectual turned on Cynthia heart.

Finally, she found someone who may or may not compatible with her, but does he feel the same ? Of course not. Such a man like him wouldn't look at this public worker,

"Don't be cheeky darling, you said it yourself that the world is vast and there are amounts of things we haven't discover yet so why are you so scared of finding where the two of us should go next ?"

"Because, I'm a little bit afraid of the unknown Adrien... I'm afraid of the what if's, what will happen if this doesn't work ? Not to mention not a few hours ago I was just broken up with my ex boyfriend" she reason with him,

"Then trust me, let us go together and walk with each other side by side, we will stand together and my loyalty will always be with you"

Cynthia could feel her eyes watering, the two of them standing in the bridge next to the London Eye and Big Ben, his arms circling around her waist as the two of them seek the warmth of each other.

Cynthia arms slowly moved upwards towards his neck, she cupped his cheeks and caress the beard.

"But do you mind to go slow first ? We just happen to meet and talk and be with each other for a few hours Adrien," she question him as she could feel him swayed her side to side,

"I don't mind it all, you've opened my eyes to another dimension when we talked and when we become together I felt like I'm with the most charming woman ever and do you know that people do get first love at sight ?"

Cynthia laughed, she could feel his arms tighten around her waist and the gesture was so small but she understood what it meant,

The man is afraid of rejection and she didn't want to let her go

"Oh you're being such a cheesy person this night Adrien, am I going to see this side of you a lot ? And it's not love at the first sight... it's much more than that, even words couldn't describe it."

Adrien smiled widely as she twirl her around, her laughter rang with joyous tone.
"Oh you will always see it baby, and I knew you wouldn't want it otherwise"

She giggled and the two of them kissed slowly, savoring the taste of each other as they hear the fireworks display happen,

"Merry Christmas, love" He said,

"Merry Christmas too, darling" she said.

The two laugh as they savor the embracing and no matter how many years they have been they would never forget this time of the year,

It is right what they say about Christmas eve,

Eve will always bring what people want the most and what they want the most is each other.

They wouldn't want nothing else.
