i woke up, the sun wasn't out yet. but timothée wasn't there. i got up and walked to the balcony of my room. i sat at the old wooden chair, feeling the warm breeze against my bare shoulders. for a second i just forgot about everything. i checked the time on my watch *6:10am* i heard heels clicking against the ground as ladies where running to work, god if only i was that classy.
i went back into my room to slip into my clothes and headed downstairs for breakfast, i saw timothée with the crew but i decided to eat by myself and listened to some music with my earphones on. till i felt someone tap my shoulder.
it wasn't timothée it was dion. "hey ann" "hi" i tried to smile but it looked to fake to fool her. "what's going on" "oh i- i didn't wanna tell her because i'm not sure what her reaction would be. "i'm on my period and i'm just kinda down but i promise i'll be better by the time we film" "oh honey, i hope your better soon. especially before filming. busy day." she rubbed my shoulder.
timothée was looking over at me, scared that i'd said something that could potentially get him fired, well i'm not really sure how it works, but i guess he could.
after we finished filming each day we usually went out for dinner, the first few nights were, well, let's say tolerable. i would sit further away from timothée, we'd share glances.
i was confused at myself that it finally started to bother me now, i mean it bothered me but not this much. i guess it's because i keep going over the whole situation in my head and it just makes me so upset and angry and furious all at the same time.
after a few days, i told dion i wasn't going to be attending dinner, that i felt ill and just needed a little time to myself, you know since i was on my "period".
i went on a walk, i wandered around the lovely town that was still lit up by the edge of the sun just before the sun set completely. i walked into a mesmerising antique shop.

as i walked around, my fingertips touched the edges of all the little bits and bobs, the old furniture and the beautiful artwork.
in the end i picked up a angelic golden necklace and a poetry book. as i got to the til i realised no one was there. "h-hello?" i heard someone speed walk over "i am so sorry miss" i heard him respond. this man was devilishly handsome, he had broad shoulders, curling dark hair that fell in his face, and he was very tall. "miss?" i was staring. "oh hi, i apologise just these two thank u" "wow, this is a beautiful necklace. i bet it will look even more beautiful on a gorgeous lady like yourself" i started blushing hard. "oh um, thank u so much" "what is your name?" his french accent was killing me. "annie, what about yours" "im luc, it's lovely to meet you" i started packing away my things as i payed too. "do you own this place?" "family business" a few people were entering and i didn't want to interrupt him during his work. "hey, i'm staying at the hotel across the street. this is my number, maybe we can meet here or there tomorrow night?" his face lit up. i wrote my phone number on his hand and left the shop feeling very excited.
i sat with the crew today and tried my best to act normal with timothée because i was really excited to see luc today. he called and asked to meet at 7.
as i was getting ready to meet luc, i listened to some more upbeat music, except from usual sad lana del rey playlist.
i put on a flowy white dress that showed my best features. i added the golden necklace and i tied some of my hair up, letting the rest hang over my shoulders. it was 7:03 when i left the hotel. i stood outside for around 10 minutes, luc was nowhere to be seen.
it was 7:28 and as i was about to leave i felt someone touch my shoulder. it was luc. "i'm so sorry annie, my grandmother needed help with something it really couldn't wait" "oh no don't worry i've not been waiting long anyway, is your grandmother okay?" "yeah she's fine now, just needed some help" "so what would you like to do"
