My first fanfic! I hope you enjoy it. :3 I own nothing!

Maddie woke up from her bed. She forgot for a second where she was. Bright sunlight poured from an open window. A slight breeze stirred the see-through curtains. Her sister snored in the next room. Maddie smiled in spite of herself. Today was a new day.

It had been a month since they'd stayed in France. Their parents sent them over here to learn about a different country's culture and let them learn at a college here. Since they were living by themselves, they needed to work to support themselves. Maddie had already found a job at a nearby café called 'Beautiful Opportunities', in French of course. Allie still hadn't found a job yet. Maddie wished her sister good luck on her search.

"Hey, Maddie, hurry up! We're gonna be late!" called Allie from the door.

"Oh! Uh, sorry! Just give me another minute, please!" said Maddie, hurriedly.

She stuffed her loose notebooks into her backpack and hurried to the door to slip on her shoes. "Geez! You're so slow, Maddie." Allie grinned. "Heh, let's get going, alright?" Maddie said. The two sisters walked side by side on the bustling streets of Paris where things were starting to wake up. Restaurant staff were putting down the chairs on their tables, vendors began putting out their wares in their booths, and many pedestrians were going out for a walk. The day was starting out fresh and clear. Allie and Maddie arrived at their college and the two went on with their school day.

Finally her classes were over and she headed on her way to the café she worked at, which wasn't too far away. Maddie greeted her manager and went to the changing room to change into her waitress uniform. It included a frilly white blouse, a black vest with a pocket to put her pen and notepad, a black skirt, a black waitress apron, and any type of tights and shoes you wished. The café she worked at was a casual bakery internet café which hosted seats inside and outside. Although it was on the far side of town and a little hard to pick out from the crowd, it was a rather popular place to relax and chill.

Ding~ Ding~ The tiny golden bell chimed as another customer came in through the door. "Maddie, can you serve this gentleman, please?" asked her manager. Her manager was busy telling the cooks what their current customers were ordering. "Sure," replied Maddie. She fetched a menu and walked to the table where the man sat.

Welcome to Café Beautiful Opportunities, how may I help you today, sir?" Maddie asked. The man looked up at her and flashed a flirtatious smile. "Yes, yes, madam, would you give me a minute and come back later, ok?" replied the Frenchman. Maddie nodded quickly. "Of course, sir."

Maddie had forgotten to not come to a customer with a menu right away. In France, the waiters or waitresses waited till their customers asked them to. French cafes and restaurants didn't want to rush their customers and to let them have a relaxing time. Maddie sighed and rubbed her head. She needed to remember these things better next time.

She saw the Frenchman scribble in the air, which meant he was asking her to come over. She remembered her manager telling her this. She hurried over. "Yes?" Maddie asked. "I'm ready," the Frenchman said, smiling. His smile was beginning to creep her out.. "Are you ready to order, sir?" Maddie asked. "Oh, yes, yes, I would like to have.." the Frenchman started. "Your order will be ready shortly," Maddie said. She left and could feel the Frenchman's eyes on her. She gave a quick glance back at his table and he caught her eye and gave a light wave. Maddie sighed and went into the kitchen to give the cook his order.

"Excuse me, Miss Williams! This customer's order is ready, would you please take it him?" asked the cook. "Oh ok," Maddie said absentmindedly. She took the platter carefully and went out of the kitchen doors. "Sir, here is your order," Maddy said. The man nodded and looked up at her expectantly.

"Yes? Is there something else you need?"

Maddie took the chance to study this man. He had hair that was rather long for a man and curly on the edges and was blonde. If he hadn't spoken in his masculine voice, she would've mistaken him to be a woman who was a tomboy. He had a neatly chiseled chin, which was lined with a bit of stubble. His face was indeed very handsome and he had bright, hypnotizing blue eyes that could make any lady swoon.

The Frenchman finally answered: "Ah, no, I don't need anything, thank you."

"Oh? Well, if you need anything, please summon me then, ok?" Maddie replied.

"Alright, thanks again," The man said.

Maddie nodded and went back to watch from the bakery counter.

The man really was odd. She wondered why he stared at her for so long a minute or however long they stared at each other. Maddie began to realize her physique. She felt pretty tired and strained from classes that day. She let out a soft yawn and straightened her round glasses. She leaned against the counter and looked at the colorful tile patterns on the floor.

Out of the corner of her eye, Maddie sees the Frenchman scribble in the air again, an annoying grin on his face. Maddie quietly sighs and gets up tiredly. She walks over to the man and tries her best to look assertive. "What is it you need, sir?" Maddie asked. "The check please, kind miss," replied the Frenchman. Maddie nodded and went to get his check. She handed it to him and waited for an answer.

"Excuse me for a second, miss, but could you lean over so I can say something private in your ear?" The man said softly. At first, Maddie stood for a couple of seconds, letting this statement sink in. "Um ok," Maddie replied, clearly confused. Maddie bent her figure, tilted her head toward the man, and…

"You are a beautiful thing, miss. Never seen anything like you. You're a foreigner, yes? From here on, I'll visit this café just to see you, just to let you know, my aigre-doux couer."

The man smirked, blew a puff of air in her ear, and left swiftly drawing a strand of loose hair from his fingers and leaving a rather big tip. The little bell that was located above the café door, jingled softly and Maddie heard the door swing shut softly.

The manager had come to check on Maddie and she saw her frozen where their previous customer had been seated. Her manager was concerned and went over to her employee. "Is something the matter, Maddie?" she asked, worried. Maddie froze from her phase. "O-oh! I'm sorry, I was daydreaming for a second, there's nothing wrong! Thanks for worrying about me though," Maddie said, giving her caring manager her best fake smile. Her manager sighed with relief. "Thank goodness! Well, I'm glad you're ok, now please take the tip that kind customer left for you." Maddie blinked and took her rather large tip.

Her manager saw this and smiled mischievously. "I don't remember when you got such a large tip before. Maddie jolted. "I don't know…" she replied quietly. "Maybe that man was interested in you?" her manager suggested. "I don't think so," Maddie said with clarity. Her manager giggled. "Alright then."

It had been a long day. Maddie soon came into her and Allie's apartment and dropped her schoolbag on the floor. She took off her shoes and plopped herself tiredly on the sofa they had bought. "Welcome home, sis," Allie called from the dining table. Maddie looked up at her sister. She sat at the dining table sipping something from a mug. Steam puffed through the mug. The drink smelled of chocolate.

"You want some hot chocolate?"

"Yeah, that'd be great , thanks."

"Silly, I'm not gonna make it for you, make it yourself."

"W-what? Oh, Allie, can't you at least make it for me this time? I do so much for you."

Allie rolled her eyes. "Fine."

Allie made her sister a cup of hot chocolate. She placed it on their dining table. "Come and get it!~" she cried. If only she had a stick and a cowbell to add effect. Maddie grunted in response and went and sat herself at the table. She brought her mug to her lips and began taking slow sips since the drink was still pretty hot.

"So how was work today?" Allie asked. "Same as usual," Maddie replied. "Mm," Allie answered. "Except that unfortunately, I think one of our new customers seems to have an interest in me, my manager is saying?" Allie's face lit up. "Soooo, you're saying you've got an admirer?" "I didn't say that," Maddie said, turning away so she wouldn't be blinded by her sister's excitement. "Wow! What's he like? Is he hot?" Allie squealed. "Eh…" Maddie started. "Well…I guess he was sorta handsome…in a way…"

"Ho~ Ho~" cooed Allie, giving Maddie an annoying mischievous look.

"Can you please stop looking at me like that? It's creepy."

"But, it's so cool! Some probably hot French dude likes you, that's just amazing!"

"B-b-but, he has long hair!"

"So? That makes him even hotter!"

"Alllllllliieeee…"

"You're so lucky I wish a guy could fall for me on first sight like that!"

"Um, I never said he fell in love with me, I really don't know, ok?"

Allie looked at her sister for a quick second and sighed. Then she got up and patted her on the back. "I'm tired, I guess I'm gonna hit the sack early today, see you in the morning, m'kay?" Maddie nodded as her sister placed her empty mug in the sink. Maddie watched her sister yawn as she went into the bathroom.

She sighed.

She stared into her mug, knowing her hot chocolate was cold. She drank it anyway, it still tasted good cold. She put her mug in the sink also and got ready for bed too. She got out of the shower, feeling warm and fuzzy in her comfy pajamas. She glanced into her sister's dark room. Her sister was snoring soundly. Maddie chuckled softly and headed into her room. She pulled the covers almost to her neck and sighed. For the rest of the night, she wondered what that Frenchman thought of her and wondered if he was bluffing that he would visit Café Beautiful Opportunities from that day on.

Uh, so what did you think of it? Please review and comment! Gonna be updated soon.
