Hooray to Paris

Melodys POV 

Hillary is very strong but she's also weird, right I'm stuck between going to find Oliver or going to eat I'm starving but I doubt I'll enjoy it by myself. I take out my phone from my purse and call Oliver, it rings continously and I'm kind of worried he might not pick up my call, but before it can go to voicemail he picks up.

 " Hi O I'm really sorry where are you ? Let's fix this, I shouldn't have said those things I said to you please forgive me. Can you please come back I'll make it up to you dinner on me at the Fitzgerald restaurant I've been dying to go there,  please say yes " I desperately plead with him, " only on one condition " 

He replies and I'm quick to immediately say yes I'll do anything he wants. " Your not paying,  I am. what kind of man allows a woman to pay for him, that's not me and you know it " Yes of course I know his like that he never allows me to pay for anything we do together, his truly a gentleman he'll make a great husband one day.

  speaking of which Oliver hasn't gone out for a date in a while now and he doesn't have a girlfriend. I wonder why's that I need to ask him surely there must be a girl he loves or at has a crush on. 

 And he doesn't have strict parents like myself. I wonder what's up with him " Hello mel are you still there " Oliver asks reminding I'm still on a call with him " Sorry for zoning out, how long can you get here ? I'm starving " and I'm starting to feel cold I've been wondering around aimlessly like a zombie and I didn't even have an appetite then but now I'm extremely hungry and I'm glad that Oliver is no longer angry with me, it's been a  miserable few hours without him.

 " I'll be there in 20 minutes how about I meet you at the restaurant " That's his reply,  " okay see you in 20 then bye " I reply before hanging up.

 

Fitzgerald is a posh restaurant,  and I'm suddenly feeling under dressed, there's a hostess at the door, she greets me looking at me up and down like she doesn't agree with my attire.

 I don't allow people like her put me down I pay no attention to her bad attitude and tell her that I made a booking yesterday to dine here yesterday for two,  She asks for my name I give it to her before she asks where's the other person who'll be joining me, I inform her Oliver will be meeting me here shortly.

 She orders me to follow her which I do and once sitted at the table,  I glance around the room and my eyes land on someone I've seen him before that's the guy from breakfast the other day, and just like that day his looking all hot and powerful, his with 3 other guys probably talking business. 

And he doesn't look too pleased so it's probably not going well and I don't realize that I'm staring until he looks my way and locks eyes with me and I'm quick to look away,  I don't want him to think I was staring at him he'll probably think I'm a freak. 

I decide to take out my phone and check up on Oliver instead, I send him a message where are you? the waiter comes and asks me what I want to have. "Just water for now I'm waiting for someone " I say to him and he goes. What's taking Oliver so long I decide maybe it's best I call " Hey I'm here sorry for making you wait " He says and as I look up there he is with flowers in his hands.  

" Oliver these are so beautiful I thought I was the one who was supposed to make it up to you not the other way around, I really shouldn't have said those things and now I now there's no better person I'd rather explore Paris with please forgive me " I say to him really disappointed with myself for my actions earlier on today. 

 He takes my hands in his and rubs circles on them,  " You have nothing to apologize for from now on everything we do I'll consult you first, I don't like seeing you unhappy and I certainly don't want to be the course for that" Oliver replys.  " Your the best,  I don't know what I'd do without you " And that's true Oliver is always there for me in all my past difficulties I'm truly blessed to have a friend like him.  

 

" So how was your meal " That's Oliver asking,  " Exactly how I imagined it even superceded my expectations I'm really glad that we came here,  we should do this again before we leave Paris" I say to him before I excuse myself to the bathroom I need to make sure my makeup is intact and reapply my lipstick.

  I get to bathroom empty my bladder,  wash my hands and apply some make up before going back inside only to find Oliver having a heated discussion with someone from where I'm standing I don't really hear what they are saying but I've got an uncomfortable feeling about this whole situation I wonder what happened when Oliver left me there by the Eiffel Tower,  did he upset someone he shouldn't have, as I  approach I can hear threats being made and it makes me even more concerned as to why someone would threaten Oliver.  

We don't know anyone here,  we are just tourists for heavens sake.  The guy sees me get closer to the table and retreats he somewhat looks familiar but I'm too shocked to even think where I've seen him before.

  " Are you okay, what's going on " I ask feeling concerned for our safety that guy looked dangerous. Oliver stands up and places a hand on my Lower back,  " Nothing you should worry about,  I've got it under control,  I've already paid the bill we should leave " He says more demanding than actually actually asking and I just nod and take my things and we leave.  

We get an uber in the front and right now were sitting in the back with my head on Oliver's shoulder,  " Why don't you have a girlfriend, I've been asking myself that question today,  your so perfect like any girl would be lucky to have you, do you not have a crush on anyone " I ask him lifting my head up to look at him, he tenses up and looks everywhere except at me and doesn't answer my question. okay his ignoring my question " Oliver I asked a question were friends I thought friends talked about this stuff why you being weird " I ask him.

  " What are you expecting me to say Melody, that the girl I like doesn't like me back that no Matter how much I try she'll never look at me the way I see her " He says looking hurt, Oliver has a crush on someone how did I miss that and most importantly who is she " Have you tried telling her how you feel about her " He looks at me with this unreadable expression and shakes his head. 

 " Your really clueless ain't you " He replies, " Oh mel can we not talk about this again " He says, wow whoever this girl is Oliver must truly love her for him to get this worked up over it. " I didn't mean to upset you I'm sorry I will never bring it up again I promise " I say to him and I realize we just arrived at our hotel and we leave the car and make it up to the room.

 Once in the room I shower and put on my pjs,  I'm still concerned about the situation that happened at the restaurant.  " Oliver you never told me what that guy wanted from you " I ask him." I told you it's nothing" he says before going to the bathroom what's with Oliver and not wanting to talk to me lately. 

 His probably tired right now so I'll talk to him in the morning. I get into bed and immediately fall into a  deep sleep.
