Ce N'est Pas Au Revoir

by afterell

A TIMELESS STORY WHERE LOVE HAS NO BOUNDARIES AND GOODBYE IS NEVER THE END Ce N'est Pas Au Revoir portrays love, loss, forgiveness, and an evergreen friendship. Julean was meant to be. It just took a sequel to make it happen. This was a collaborative effort (though my friends probably regret this). Special thanks to everybody on the Google doc for making this happen!

14. Chapter 14

"Hey, Jean."

"Yeah?"

"What's this?" Julien held up a small ziplock of white powder.

"Oh. I found this miracle powder. C'est le poudre de protein!"

"Wow! That's magical. What do we do with it!"

"I don't know. I think we snort it and then we magically get gains!"

"Wow! Let's try!"

So the two French boys took out their cartes de credit and then made little protein powder lines!

"This feels so illegal, Jean!"

"I know! We're like… like badasses! With gains!"

Then they rolled up their devoirs de maths and snorted the protein powder.

"Is this supposed to make us high?"

"I think so!"

"That's good. I feel high already! On gains!"

"So do I!"

Then they cavorted in the apartment with their newfound gains.

Jean could not fall asleep. There was something on his chest that he had to get out right then and there, even if it was still 2 in the morning. He gently shook Julien awake. Julien swatted his arm. Jean was starting to get that the sense that he was not much of a morning person.

"What is it, Jean? Don't tell me the nightmares are back."

"No, it's not that. I was just thinking that the universe let me live because it knew how much how I loved you. It wanted me to at least let us have a chance with each other before the end of our time here. That was a really deep thought and I needed to share it with you. Aren't you glad I woke you to share that deep thought?"

"No. Can I go back to sleep now?"
