Do you know how long its been since I've had alcohol? I said to Leonardo while laughing. I took another sip of the mysterious wine. Alright Leo what is this? I asked him. It's France most famous wine, The one and only "Le Plat D'or" from back in the 1900's. He said with a french accent and a smile on his face. ooh well, a notre amitie. I said then Leo and I clicked out glasses of Le Plat D'or. I went to France over Christmas break for inspiration for my new novel. I wanted to get an inside look at what people are like in France. Leo, when are you going to get back to work? said the bar's manager. Also known as Leo's boss. I met Leo about two weeks ago. Since then I've coming to the bar and we've hung out. His very childish,, funny, and gives good advice. His a great person overall.
I can't say that his my best friend in the whole world and that I tell him everything. He knows a lot about me. Not that I'm so willing to let the world know about my problems and my past. It's just that his always making me try these new things that he comes up with, So I always end up drunk by the end of the day. When your drunk you can't help but say things uncontrollably. I told him things I try to forget. I was always in the bar he worked at, it seemed like I liked him because he made it easier to me to forget. As i'm walking to a sit down a strange man pumps into me. Oh i'm sorry. I wonder if he was really sorry, he never finished that apology. He just kept staring into my eyes, like his never seen anything like it. I can't argue, I was doing the same thing.
It was like looking forever beyond. It feels so right, but I snapped into reality. Um, sir are you okay? I asked the unknown man. Yeah, i'm sorry by the way. He responded. He seemed very important. He wore a nice navy blue suit with Louis Vuitton black shoes. He had a fade cut and had a nice smile. Are you going to go your way or continue to stare at me?. I said to him not even breaking a smile. I think I stay here and stare. He said under his breathe. but I still I heard him. What? I said to him. I mean, I need to go. He said looking serious and he looked at his watch and rushed out. I sat down and asked for a martini. What kind? Leo asked while smiling. You like the dirty kind? He continued. Yes give me it dirty. I responded then laughed a little.
Pat, girl that man was screaming that he wanted you, and you just ignored him like an unwanted shoe. Leo said to me while making my drink. Yeah, like I said. I'm not looking for love. I said. So? you don't have to look for love, let love look for you. He said to me. Yeah but in my past relationships-. Before i could finish my sentence he interrupted. girl please, you slept with a bratty gay and had bad relationships with two guys, some people have it worse. At least your alive, other don't make it you know. He said seriously. I thought about what Leo said. I don't want to get involve with anyone right now. This point of my life was the point where fun was all I cared about. I would leave Paris in 2 weeks and I was taking Leo with me. I don't have time to think twice.
I was going to spend Christmas in Paris and I wanted it to be special. This is the beginning where my life actually starts. "why is it so cold, its only the 14 of December?" asked Leo. I don't know, why don't you ask mother nature. I said sarcastically. hmm you know you think you real funny, don't you? Leo said looking at me. Oh honey, I don't think I know. I responded while laughing. It really amazes me with Leo tries to be getho, but fails. He has a french accent, so whenever he speaks like this it just cracks me up. Leo and I were heading to the Sainte Chapelle mall, when we spotted a huge building, opening. So as curious and nosy as we were, we went and checked it out.
As we entered the building, my phone rings and I lost focus for a while. Before I knew it I pumped into someone. Who was holding a pile of papers. I got down on my knees and helped the man picked them up. Though I didn't even bother to look as his face. When I did... You!! Your the strange man in the navy blue suit. I said In little chock. Strange man in the navy blue suit? Seriously? That's what you came up with? He asked with a confused look on his face. By his voice I could tell he was childish. Yeah, you never really gave me your name, so. I said still kneed on the ground. Two security guards walked towards us and said. Is she causing trouble for you Mr. Palkins? Was I causing trouble? What hypocrites. Just yesterday I said the left one from chocking,at the bar.
No no no. I was just asking this young lady to accompany me to lunch. He said without an invitation. Leo stood and stared at him. UM, I'm here too buddy. Leo said feeling left out. I meant her and her um, brother. I stood up and walked out of the building. I didn't have time for another spoiled rich brat to ruin my life. As i'm walking, Leo catched up to me not saying a word. The stranger man in the navy blue suit ran and took me by the hand and said "so how about it, Missy? You want some lunch?" '
