St Clair and I spent the entire night talking. I got to know more about him without him getting to know more about me. I know it's selfish but it's for both of us. It's for our own good.
I heard a knock on the door and I decided not to open it considering I didn't like being disturbed while I was working.
What if it's St Clair. My subconscious prompted me to open the door and she was right. It was St Clair.
"Hazel"he beamed
"Etienné, nice to see you too"I said
"Likewise" he eyes grew wider "Rewind"he told me
"Um... Nice to see you too"I said
"No what did you call me?"he asked
"Etienné?"
"Yeah that" he smiled "I'm so happy I could hug you right now"he said
"Don't"I told him with a hand between the both of us.
I led him inside

Do you?""Of course not,"I answered without hesitation "That devil had the guts to give me a lecture on 'staying away from her boyfriend'. She's just insecure and she doesn't know it. I don't like St Clair that way and I never will so it would be better if she shoved her pretty little feet into her pretty little mouth" I said and scoffed.Lila was surprisingly quiet."Aren't you going to say something?"I asked her but she said nothing. I realized there was a shadow looming over me and that's when I realized why Lila was silent."She's behind me isn't she?"Lila nodded and I turned to face the plastic face of Meredith."Hi Meredith"I greeted with a high pitched voice"Save it"she told me with a glare that made me want to laugh"How long have you been standing there?"I asked her"Long enough to know

"You weren't kidding when you said the place of the dead"I said looking at the cemetery in front of me."Nope""So we're going in there?"I asked"Why not"He seemed to notice my hesitation. I mean who wouldn't."Come on. It's not like they can jump out and eat you"he teased"That helped a lot"I said with a roll of my eyes and let's not forget the evident sarcasm.He dragged me inside the cemetery ignoring my protests."I present to you Pére Lachaise cemetery"he said"It's really wide"I commented"Yh, there's also an equally wide garden that's separated from the cemetery"he told me"What's the garden used for?"I asked"Picnics mostly"he answered and I nodded"Some history perhaps?"he asked and I giggled

Sorry," I said, helping Etienné to stand up."Please maintain distance, I need to breathe," he said walking away from me. Confused, I stood where I was."Umm....are you okay?"I asked and he nodded"You sure?"I asked concerned"Sure," he replied"How do I look?"I asked, twirling."Good," he answered."Just good?"I asked feeling disappointed. Why? I didn't know."Breathtaking," he said and I blushed."You're acting weird," I stated"Is it okay if I go outside for fresh air?" he asked."Yeah sure, "I replied.Maybe it was the dress I wore. I shrugged. I liked the dress so I was going to buy it. I paid for the dress and left the shop. I looked around but couldn't find Etienné."Hey," Etienné said,

To say I was in heaven would be an understatement for what I felt at the moment. I hadn't responded immediately but once I got wind of what was happening,I kissed him back like my life depended on it. His soft lips nibbling on mine, his tongue seeking entrance. His tongue moved in and out my mouth making me moan. He erupted a feeling inside of me. The same feeling that killed my mother.I pushed him with all the strength I gathered–although I didn't want to."I'm sorry"he apologized immediately"You shouldn't have done that"I said and walked into my apartment without glancing back.You shouldn't have kissed him Krystabel.♠♠♠I would be lying if I said I didn't think of the kiss Etienné and I shared. Kissing him again had crossed my mind maybe once,okay maybe like the whole night before I fell asleep and maybe right now because I just burnt my tongue by drinking hot coffee just because I was thinking o

She walked away with a fake smile gracing her face. Yup, Meredith is definitely a witch Theysat on the table Rose and I had prepared. I served everyone,well everyone except the witch seated beside Etienné–Meredith. "You didn't serve me"she complained "Oh.....sorry I didn't see you there"I said flatly and sat on my seat. Okay, maybe that was a wrong but o didn't like her. Besides all is fair in love and hate. "I still haven't been served"She said glaring at me. "The food's closer to you and I really don't want to stand up so------"I trailed off, expecting her to get the message–I wasn't going to serve her. She frowned and Rose and I tried to suppress our laughter. "So what brought you to Paris?"Rose asked me "Well-----"I started "St Clair can you feed me"Mer asked Etienné while secretly looking at me. Did she expect me to be jealous? If yes,then she failed. Terribly "I'

I stood still, trying to push everything back in but I couldn't."You're a relationship wrecker and you know it"I walked towards her and slapped her."I get that you're insecure but you don't have to blame it on me. The relationship I have with Etienné is simply platonic,I don't like him the way you think I do. He's just a friend, you're obsessed and insecure yet you don't want to admit it and you stand here saying I'm a relationship wrecker. For your information I'm not, your the one trying to spoil your relationship with your own hands"I took a deep breath."You know what,I'm done, done with your stupid accusations,done with your insecurities and I'm done with Etienné. You can have him all to yourself,it's not like I care"I turned to Rose"It was a nice lunch, thanks for inviting me"I sighed trying to keep the tears at bay "And Etienné it was nice knowing you"I said and left the resturant.

"No!"I yelled fustrated as I slammed the door to the refrigerator.My food supply was done, finished. There was nothing left. I groaned. I was hungry,very hungry and yet there was no food.The door burst open."What's wrong?"Etienné asked with a pan in his hands,his shoulders raised in awareness.I gulped. He was shirtless. Like shirtless, nothing covering his beautiful chest. My mouth went dry. I bit my bottom lip resisting the urge to lick them. He was hot would be an understatement. He was fire himself."Are you going to drool or tell me what's wrong?"he asked.I recovered from gawking."Nothing"I replied confused.His shoulders dropped. He walked to the kitchen."You yelled? didn't you?"he asked."Yes I did. Did you expect to find a theif or a serial killer in my apartment?""Yes"he said with a shy smile.I laughed."You were expecting to be my knight in shining armor" I giggl

After yesterday's nightmare I couldn't sleep anymore. I was afraid that the nightmares would return. Yesterday's nightmare felt so real. It felt like I was reliving that moment over again and it was something I tried to avoid but I guess the universe really didn't like me. It never did.I sighed as I drank my hot cocoa from it's paper cup. The heat from the paper cup warmed my somewhat cold hands. I was heading to 'slurps of milkshake' to meet Lila because she wanted me to meet someone important. My guess was she wanted to meet her 'friend' or she wanted to matchmake me with another unsuspecting male. My phone vibrated. It was a text from Lila*Hurry up bird brain**I'm sorry,I'm just standing in the middle of the road waiting for a car to run me over*I texted her back. Sarcasm evident in my words*Just hurry up**Fine* I replied and as I was about to keep my phone back into its rightful place I bumped into someone and my hot cocoa slipped from my
