"Hey babe what do you want to order?" Zack asks me.
"I don't know, I might just go for a burger," I say.
"I'm going to get pizza," he says. The waitress comes and we order our food.
It had been ages since I had seen Jonny, as seeing him at the airport at just made things worse. I was trying to forget about him, since it was never going to work, with him wanting to fulfil his gridiron dream and me wanting to fulfil my fashion dream. This is where Zack comes in, you see he loves fashion and he supports me 100% on what I do, I'm not saying Jonny wouldn't, it just isn't the same. With Jonny I don't think he would understand it the way Zack does. But with Jonny it's like there's this little spark. I think he can feel it too but he's just choosing to ignore it, like I am.
The waitress comes back with our food in less than 20 minutes.
"Well that was quick," Zack says and starts eating.
"Yeah it was," I say.
"Are you okay?" he asks while gently stroking my hand, damn this boy always knows when something's up.
"Everything's fine, it's just seeing Jonny brought back memories, with my mum especially and everything I had to go through," I say.
"I understand, take as much time as you need to escape reality, just remember to come back to Earth once you're ready," he says and smiles. We continue to eat and then BOOM. There is a loud crash from the table and I see Aiden standing up with water on him.
"OH MY GOSH! AND MY PANTS! AH I CAN FEEL THE WATER DRIPPING DOWN MY LEG! OH MY GOSH I THINK I NEED TO PEE!" And Aiden runs towards the toilets. Jonny sits there watching the whole scene unfold, his eyes wide open and that's when my eyes meet contact with his. He quickly looks away but that's when I decide to go and confront him about his feelings.
I walk up to him and I'm about to start talking but then I realise Zack is right behind me so I quickly think of something else to say.
"Hey Jonny!" I say.
"Hey," he says awkwardly.
"How long are you staying in France for?" I ask him curiously.
"Well the match is in a couple of weeks so probably about a month or so, Aiden wants to see some sightseeing so yeah.." he says. "How about you?"
"A month or two, depends how long Zack and I decide to stay here," I say gesturing towards Zack, he smiles and nods his head.
"I wanna do some sightseeing to though so we might stay a bit longer," he says. Aiden comes back and sits at the table.
"Oh my gosh! Hey you guys! How have you been?" he says, all the water is dried off of him and he is smiling.
"Great, how about you man? Just saw what happened everything alright?" Zack asks.
"Yeah, everything is fine, no biggie, it's just water," he says laughing.
"Oh sweet," Zack says. Nobody talks for about a minute until it just gets to awkward for me to handle.
"Well Zack and I better get going, hope to see you guys soon, if we don't then good luck at the match!" I say.
"Yeah, good luck!" Zack says.
"Thanks," says Aiden. I hold eye contact with Jonny for a few seconds but then I turn my head and walk away.

After the restaurant Zack and I head back to the hotel, we walk inside the room and Zack immediately jumps on the bed a grabs a sightseeing pamphlet.
"So I was thinking, after the exhibition, we can do some sightseeing around France, there is a lot to see after all," he says. I go take a seat behind him and wrap my legs around his waist.
"Yeah, that would be great," I say looking at the pamphlet with him.
"OO! We have to go to the Eifel Tower!" he says squealing like a 12 year old who just saw Harry Styles. I laugh at him and look at the other side of the pamphlet.
"We should take a boat down French Riviera," I say in my best French accent.
"And we should go Verdon Gorge, to finish the trip off!" he says.
"Sounds quite romantic," I say giggling.
"Well, it is France," he says. We spend the rest of the day talking about what places to go to, in the end we order some room service and watch a French movie.
Once the movie is done we go to bed and lie down.
"Are you nervous about tomorrow?" he asks.
"Not really, I mean I've talked in front of a lot of people before so this shouldn't be any different," I say. "It's going to be a much bigger audience apparently,"
"You'll do fine, you always do fine. The audience loves you anyway," he says. I check the time and it's 10:30pm.
"Better get to sleep then" I say kissing him goodnight.
"Goodnight angel," he says wrapping his arms around me.
"Goodnight," I say resting my head in his chest.
