Conversations in italics are in German
1. Storm
Germany had been beautiful as far as Camila had visited but now was the time for the tourist to change the scenery and go to a new place, so would've been the fate of our traveling protagonist had it not be for the storm that had decided to arrive at Berlin at the worst time possible, also known as the time where she was due to take her plane to London after having visited all she wanted from this side of europe in her odd traveling schedule, at least for now
Now since the it was quite the storm it would come as no wonder that the plane wouldn't be able to fly until it's over, knowing this, Camila approached the airport departing table to ask when exactly the plane would leave or if it would leave that day at all, if they told her she would have to wait a day then she'll find a place to spend the night. When she got there she had to wait for the assistant that was helping another assistant with something, bored she let herself overhear the conversation between yet another assistant and an obviously pissed of passenger that, like her, had been caught here by the storm
As interesting as this person appeared to her, Camila knew better than to get involved in other people's business and returned her attention to the front, just in time to see one of the workers approaching her [i]
"Hello, how may I help you?" asked the assistant
"Sorry, could you repeat that?" asked Camila
The woman sighed, Camila had to held the little smile that was threatening to come out, she did know German but she liked speaking in English better, besides the reactions were priceless
"Can I help you with something?" asked the assistant
"Yes, could you tell me when is the flight to London leaving?" asked Camila
With a firm nod the woman moved to a nearby computer and started tipping, now the she had no distractions she could feel a gaze on her, now having it been any other person they would turn arround, but Camila it's a little different. Using all her will power she ignored that tiny voice in her head that told her to turn arround and see if someone was actually watching her, and instead focused on the faint lines in the table she was in front of, if she concentrated enough she could make shapes out of them [ii]
Luckily the woman returned to where she was with an apologetic smile, Camila didn't really understand this, it wasn't like the woman would tell her anything she didn't already know
"Sorry miss but all flights have been cancelled and wont leave until tomorrow" said the assistant
"That's alright, I understand" said Camila
Having said that she left the table to get out of the airport and try to get somewhere to stay for the night, of course since she has the luck of a cat floating on a piece of wood in the middle of the ocean [iii] she bumped into someone, being that her brain was still working in English she instantly reacted in said language
"I'm terribly sorry, I wasn't looking" said Camila
She looked up to meet with emerald-green eyes below oversized eyebrows and ravish blond hair. Ever had that feeling that you've seen someone before, that's what both of them felt when their eyes crossed, and the world seemed to freeze
"It's okay" he said
She gave a slight nod and then kept moving to the exit, a depressing feeling filled the blond, it was a known feeling too, something he had felt many times; it didn't quite have a name and he really wished he wouldn't feel it so much, his fists clenched and he turned arround
"Wait" he said
Camila stopped and turned arround, almond green eyes filled with curiosity
"You just asked them about your flight, didn't you?" he asked
She smiled at him and let go of her suitcase's handle and crossed her arms
"English?" said Camila
It was more of a statement than a question, even with the questioning tone, he scowled
"Do you have a problem with that?" he asked annoyed
She chuckled and denied with her head before looking at him with a small smile
"Sorry to disappoint you but all planes have been cancelled until tomorrow" said Camila
She then turned arround once more and grabbed her suitcase
"If that's all then I'll be leaving" said Camila
"Uhm, actually... I know a place that would have rooms, since you helped me out..." he said
She turned half way and raised an eyebrow at him, her black ponytail moving with her, the look she gave him was that of someone who knows the world, then her eyes softened and she turned arround completely
"Well then, what are we waiting for? Lead the way!" said Camila smiling
[i] Bad Camila! Don't you know it's rude to stare?
[ii] If you've never made shapes out of the lines in a table or roof then you've never been really bored
[iii] Which would be both good and bad for said cat
