If I run

Chapter 7 ( Abigail)

"How did you and your friends meet?" he asked after our argument and I burst out laughing "is it that bad?" he asked "no, no, it's hilarious, but I ended up getting arrested in the process" I kept laughing, as his face dropped, "oh calm down, it was nothing bad and they dropped the charges......" "good" "ok well get comfortable, because it takes a while.... so it was winter my first winter here, I was going to an art Galla at the Louvre, Kitty and Lila were catering the event, at the time though none of us knew each other, I wasn't really paying attention when I bumped into Jeanette we started talking and kind of stuck together for the rest of the night, Keith was making a long boring speech and we decided to sneak away we snuck into a restricted area not knowing it was restricted, Devon was trying to find his way back to the even when he found us and we started talking and we eventually ended up getting even more lost when we some how found our way to the back of the catering area, where... well we got into some trouble with Kitty but she got over it when we told her what happened she decided to sneak away with us and Lila being a good person tried to stop us... we went all over the museum and out the doors to outside where it was snowing, we were kind of tipsy by then and started throwing snowballs at each other, some how it got to inside and Keith came out and started to yell at us, but kitty started yelling at him and it turned into this huge fight between them and ended with a snowball to the face, he had us taken off the premises considering us accomplices." "I must be missing something because Keith would not be your friend if he tried to get you arrested" "wait a moment, I wasn't finished... after that night we never saw each other again, until I was at a bar one night, it was Lila's. Kitty walked in we didn't recognize each other and soon the everyone else was at the same bar including Keith we didn't talk or even look at each other, the bad was cleared out and some people were leaving their jobs and lucky for them because it soon it started snowing hard, and the streets were blocked. we were snowed in with Lila being the only person left working. she came out and told us we would have to stay here until the door would open and for the first time we actually looked at each other that night, kitty started ganging up on Keith getting up in his face Devon was trying to hold her back but eventually gave up, they kept fighting again talking English with so many British terms I was confused or maybe it was just because I was drunk, either way I still didn't know. she finally ended it with a slap and told him to go to hell, he probably said something offensive as he did often to her, we all started talking finding things in common besides our height and just accepted that it was fate we were meant to be friends, Keith dropped the charges obviously and that's why were friends" I said " you are something else Abigail Reynolds" he said with a smirk "your doing it again" I said and he acted like he didn't know what he was doing "what am I doing?" "smirking" "am I really?" "yes, now please stop" I said basically pleading him "make me" he said with arrogance, "alright if that's how you want to play" I said getting up and sitting on his lap, I leaned in close and kissed him on the lips grabbing his or my shirt actually, I basically gave him a heart attack but once his heart started working again he realized what I did and after a moment of confusion he kissed me back, this was not how it was supposed to go. I pulled away and actually started laughing which probably really offended him. "what's so funny?" He asked " I'm not actually sure... which is why I'm laughing" I said after coming back to my senses I tried to get up but his hand went to my knee "no Collin, I don't do hook ups or relationships, or any of that shit" I said going serious "and why don't you?" he asked "because, I don't see the point in I love you's or I miss you's, their over used and have no meaning left, I don't believe in love" I said and he chuckled slightly "and yet you live in Paris the city of love" he said taking his hand off my knee letting me up " not originally, Rome is the original City of love, Paris was the original city of light because of all the intelligent people here" I said "you are crazy, you say so many poetic and inspiring things and then you go all negative Nancy when it comes to love or even the various other siblings and cousins of love, why?" he asked " I've only ever had one love and he broke my heart" I said "well screw him, get over it, he was the first not the right one" he said and I threw his clothes at him "yeah I know that... now just drop it please" I said "fine"
