June 2013
The warm breeze ruffles Caroline's hair as she makes her way through the crowded courtyard. Her heels hit off the cobbled ground with muffled clicks, before being drowned out by the general hubub working in perfect harmony on all sides. She had to meet someone at one, so that left another two hours to explore her new surroundings.
Everything was magnified; the sweet smell of pastry hung around a corner, the steady push of boats on the river was audible and, of course, the Eiffel tower could be made out in the distance, although it was some way off. The tourists were easy to tell apart from the locals; a mixture of accents, not quite fitting in. Souvenir stalls were littered everywhere; postcard and key ring racks stood guard to their entrances. A busker was located on a raised platform, surrounded by an array of people, all smiling at the soft melody. The Paris-associated-pigeons were gathered on roof tops, cooing and ruffling their feathers at passers-by. Paris was better then she had every imagined.
At the edge of the square she takes a small flight of steps down to the river's edge and gazes out over the rippling waves. Sitting down on a nearby bench, she reclines her head, adjusts her rounded sunglasses and lets her mind wonder, turning her head to the sun, enjoying the warmth that most vampires could only dream of. It was only two days ago that she had recieved the note under her dorm room's door. The messanger had long gone by the time she discovered it. People around campus posted petitions and party invites through doors all the time, it was the fancy lettering on the front that let her know who it was from.
It was a script she had not encountered since her final year at Mystic Falls High School around two years ago. It was from a man she had not heard from in what seemed like a lifetime, but had in reality been a few months. He was the most dangerous man she knew and, later that day, they were supposed to meet for coffee.
