But here is the other chapter I'm sorry it's short but that the only thing that came to my mind. Right now I have school to so I don't know when I'll upload the other chapter ASAP

Ch 3 Meeting You Again

Noir looked up, and smiled. He found the book that he wanted!

"Ray, have you finished?" Noel said, as he came up next to him.

"Yes, yes Noel. Let me just pay for it and we'll be able to go home,"

"Good, I'm hungry," Noel said, as he walked next to Noir, as they made their way to the clerk in charge of the store. Noir laughed. Today Noir and Noel were both in the heart og Paris shopping center. Noir was prolonging his stay in the store. He didn't want to get home and bump into Helen. If he did Helen would want to talk to him, or just be with him, just accompanying him and he didn't want that, he just wanted to go home, lock himself in his office, and read the book for his next 'job'. He didn't want Helen to fond out about his other job.

"Ray? Can we take the long way?" Noel asked.

"Why?"

"Because you look like you don't want to home just yet," Noel said, grinning.

Noir smile. Noel had become more mature, and aware of other peoples people's feeling.

"Ok, then, but we'll have to hurry or there might be a chance of it raining and I don't want Laila to get mad at us."

Last time, both Noel and Noir came form the city, and it had started to rain. When both of them had come home, they were soak to the bone and they had a cold afterwards. Laila scolded them saying, "No more walking under the rain or I'll have you eat my cooking again and I don't care what the cooks says."

Noel and Noir shivered at that and said "Ok." eating Laila's food was as good as any punishment.

Noel said "We better hurry," not wanting to remember that feeling again.

As soon as they got out of the store. Noir looked down at Noel, to make sure that he had button up really well his coat, he didn't want the young boy to catch a cold. He checked himself and he walked toward the park, which was almost was almost like a forest. It had a pond in the center, and the grass always green, though now, since it was almost winter, it was a dull green now. The pond which was always nice and cool and sparkling, was now cold and not good for swimming nor rowing boats on it. As Noel and Noir walked they kept on talking about the topics on Noel's studies.

Florian tucked his chin more into his red scarf. It was getting colder, and the threat of rain, was in the clouds, was now in the clouds. He walked down a path from the park, he was glad to have some time to himself, his fiancé, Bella, was with her friends, having a cup of tea and catching up with old times, So he wasn't in the mood to sit with ladies and smile and talk politely.

So he decided to walk with the park, the one he was always took when he and Noir wanted to spend more time together and not make it obvious. The good thing is that he had brought an umbrella. He walked and just thought of the moments that he's spent with Noir and Noel. He walked and sat on a bench in front of the pond, of course he didn't know that he was in the same park or that Noir and Noel were about to wake by that bench.

Noel stopped in his tracks as he saw that profile of a person sitting in a bench. Noir looked at him he was about to ask him what was wrong but Noel took off running.

"Noel! Were are you-" Noir stopped abruptly, as he heard the name that Noel screamed.

"Florian!" Noir looked at the running boy to the figure of the young Tassel boy. His gaze went over to the one person he never stop loving, nor would ever forget, no matter how many years pass or how much he changed. Noir's breath caught in his throat and he couldn't believe what believe at who he saw. He could only stare at Florian, who now was hugging and soothing Noel, who was crying.

Florian was patting the boys hair. Florian, apparently not seeing Noel, was talking to Noël seriously no doubt he though that Noel was all alone in the par. Noel smiled and started to talk and pointed at Noir. Florian's eyes finally met Noir's Florian' s eyes grew big in surprise, although it was only for a second, then they turned into a bored expression. He got up and Noir saw that his hair had grown longer, his hair reaching up to his mid-back. Noir couldn't help but just stare at the beautiful man.

"Well, good evening, Count Courland. How have you been?" Florian asked as he came toward him. It was too formal.

"I've been doidng well," Noir said. Noel looked back from one man to other.

"Ray- don't you think we should invite Florian to dinner?" Noel said.

Ray just nodded. "Would you like to join us for dinner?"

"Of course," Florian said, in a bored tone.

"Yay! Florian, I'll be waiting," Noel said as Florian set him down.

"Well then, Count Courland I'll see you at 6 o'clock," Florian said as he turned as walked away. Noir just looked at him, without saying anything. It had started to sprinkle a little.

"Ray? Can we go hom?" Before it starts to rain harder?"

"Yes. Yes, let's go," Noir said, as he got a hold of the boys hand and pulled him as he walked fast as possible without making the boy trip over his feet. Now it was raining a bit harder so Noir just got the boy and put him in between his arms and ran as fast as he could and to his house. He made, without being completely drenched.

"Noir?" Can I ask you something?"

"Yeas, what is it?"

"Do you still love Florian?"

Noir just looked at the boy, who was now taking of his coat, scarf and gloves.

"Yes, Noel I still do,"

"Well that good to hear because Florian also loves you," Noel finished as he hung his coat and went upstairs, more like ran.

"Noel! Don't run up the stairs or you'll trip," Noir yelled up to him for the thousand time.

"Need to get ready for," Noel yelled back as he ran out of view.

"So what did you guys find to make you both so restless?" Laila said, coming out of the tea room.

"We sort of met someone on the way here, and will be joining us for dinner."

Laila raised an eyebrow.

"Well I'll just let the cook know, so she could make more food."

"Sure," Noir said absentmindly he walked up the stairs and out of sight. Laila raised both of her eyebrows now. She wondered who would make Noir act like that. She shrugged, well at least he told her that there was going to be company so she could prepare herself as well and be decent enough. Since Noir's fiance, Helen, came to Noir's house she changed everything. She hired a real cook, which everyone was grateful for although they didn't expressed it in the open, then she also had gone to buy Laila some formal dresses.

In the years that had come Laila had gotten over her love for Noir. It was clear that he was in love with Florian from the beginning. When Florian 'died' Noir didn't purse any love interest. Laila had tried to make him notice her but it was all in vain. She knew that Noir would not love anyone else if it wasn't Florian. Laila had wanted to hate Florian but she couldn't since she saw that Florian cared for Noir. She also saw how Florian made Noir smile.

A natural smile and Florian had always had a soft expression on his eyes and that went for Noir too. Laila had suffered so much when she saw how Noir had acted when he heard that Florian had died. She really couldn't hate Florian, never at him, he had helped her so many times and she thought of her as a close brother. Then she saw how Noir didn't want to marry Helen, especially since she was a relative of Florian it just reminded him of Florian. She knew it but it was beyond her power to do anything. For now she could see how Noir tried to be happy.

She sighed and went to the kitche to tell the cook about the plans for tonight. She had to admitt she was curious at who he invited. Whoever it was though, she had the feeling, that it was going to be very interesting in the house.

Ok then that was that. Please tell me how it was. Was it bad good? Tell me in your reviews. Till the other chapter guys.
