Sorry this took forever to update. I hope I have the girls names right on this, since I changed Toinette and Clemence twice. I should do. I was going to have the other two girls meet the Majestics in this chapter, but then this 'filler' got written and it helps making time longer, since the first chapter I wrote which is currently the last one of this story is set a few years after the very first chapter of this story. XD! Thank you to .QueenViolet. and AquilaTempestas for reviewing. ^_^
Harriet, Toinette and Clemence were in the school courtyard during the morning break.
"So Harriet, what'd you do this weekend?" Toinette asked, she was always one for gossip.
"Oh, thought I told you on Friday that I was going to Oliver's." Harriet smiled.
"You did. I just want to know EVERY detail of what happened." Toinette smirked, she was convinced that Harriet and Oliver were MORE than just friends.
"Nothing like THAT!" Harriet blushed, making Clemence giggle.
"Then what DID you and your boyfriend get up to?" Toinette asked, trying to be innocent.
"Oliver's NOT my boyfriend! I went to his mansion and met some of his friends!"
"Really? What are they like?" Clemence asked this time.
"Well, they were quite different from what I thought someone who'd be friends with Oliver. Especially Johnny."
"Johnny?" Toinette repeated, appearing to want to know more.
"Well, Johnny had to be constantly reminded to be polite, he laughed at the fact that I'd never had a girlfriend."
"Not everyone is so lucky to find a great guy like my boyfriend." Toinette sighed, appearing to go into a daydream.
The other two sighed in annoyance, they were sick and tired of hearing about Toinette's boyfriend.
"It wasn't very nice of him to laugh at you." Clemence smiled gently, trying to make Harriet feel better, she could sense that Harriet must have been embarrassed.
This snapped Toinette out of it.
"Yeah, he sounds like a real jerk!" Toinette gave Harriet a huge smile.
"So what are the others like?" Clemence asked.
"Well, Enrique was quite flirty, he got down on one knee and kissed my hand when he greeted me. It made me feel uncomfortable, he was constantly told to stop being inappropriate."
"Are all of Oliver's friends so rude?" Toinette said as she and Clemence frowned.
"No, Robert was polite, he was the one who constantly told Enrique and Johnny to mind their manners. Although after the laughing Johnny pretty much stayed quiet the whole time except when he and Enrique got into a little argument. But Enrique he flirted quite a bit, his arm seemed to be attached to shoulders. It was strange being around them, it was interesting but I was so nervous."
"I'm sure you were fine after being around them for a while, before you know it you'll be talking to them like your talking to us now!" Toinette told her.
"You think so?" Harriet asked more to herself, she knew what Toinette said was probably right, she just needed to get used to them and then the shyness barrier would disappear.
"So, when will we get to meet Oliver and his friends." Toinette asked her eyes staring interested in the guys who had befriended one of her best friends.
"Um, I dunno. Shouldn't I get to know them or something." Harriet was beginning to feel nervous of the thought of her friends meeting another one of her friends and his friends who she'd only just met.
"Well, when you've met them a few more times then. We could still meet Oliver soon at least, right!" Toinette was grinning in excitement at meeting new people.
"I'll have to talk to Oliver then."
She had forgot to mention it to him when she saw him a couple of times of the next few weeks. Now a month after she'd met his friends, Oliver and Harriet were sat in the greenette's conservatory, drinking tea as always.
"So Harriet, it's been about a month since you've met my friends." Oliver started.
"Yeah." Harriet agreed, wondering where this was going.
"So when will I meet mademoiselle Toinette et mademoiselle Clemence?"
Harriet's eyes widened, remembering the conversation she had with her friends. She had completely forgotten that they said they wanted to meet him and that she said she would talk to him about it, until just now.
"Well, um, whenever you want. They want to meet you."
"Well, how the week after next."
"Why then?"
"Because I'm going to Robert's next weekend, he said that you can come with me if you want. I don't know if he'll appreciate you bringing along your friends though, so I think it'd be best if they met him and the other two while they were over here in France."
"I guess I can understand that. But are you sure it's ok for me to go to his place?"
"Yes, he said that I can bring you with me. I think he wants you to get know him and the others more, since your first impression of them probably wasn't very good."
"Well, I did find it strange that you were friends with guys like Johnny and Enrique."
"Once you get to know them, if you want to get to know them that is, you'll see why."
"But still, going to one of their places seems like a big step and it makes me feel really uncomfortable."
"Don't worry I'll be there too and Robert INVITED you as a guest, I'm sure Enrique will be happy to see you too!"
"Of course ENRIQUE would!" Harriet sighed, which made Oliver giggle.
"Don't worry he'll get the idea that your not interested at some point."
"Really!"
"Well no, he thinks he is the best looking guy in the world. But, he will lay off the flirting at least a little."
Harriet sighed and gave Oliver a small smile.
"He's a funny one that Enrique."
"He is, he sure keeps things interesting!"
They both laughed at that.
"So will you come with me next week? It will be fun!" Oliver smiled.
Harriet sighed. "If I have to!"
"You don't! I know you're only saying that because you're hiding that you really DO want to come, but your nervous-ness is making you deny it!"
Harriet pouted and stared at him.
"No, you make me feel like I HAVE to go."
"You don't HAVE to!" Oliver laughed.
"Sure, I'm still going. Robert had the decency to invite me right!" Harriet smirked.
"Yeah, he sure did." Oliver blushed, oh so slightly.
