Amen :: A Hellsing Tale :: Part 9 :: When In France
The rain poured down on the black limo, as the clouds darkened above. A soft humming came from Pip's lips, along with a new cigarette. You smiled at your French friend, and looked out your window. Things were quiet, they had been that way since Her Majesty had passed away. Still, her son pursued to get rid of you, though time and time again you had told him that you had no desire to become the next Queen of England.
"Liar!" he had roared at your calm response, pounding on his desk. You had watched in wonder as the angry Prince had his tantrum. "You think Im stupid? Gullible? Well Im not!!"
"I know sire," you had answered softly. He had become red in the face, and just thinking about it now made you giggle. After he had ordered you out of his sight, mother who had been patiently waiting outside went in to speak with the Prince. You have heard nothing from him since!
"Whatever you said, thanks!" you had told your mother as she walked with you to the car. She smiled and lit a cigar, adding a rare pat on the back.
As you thought of all the things that had happened since the Queen's death, the car had pulled up to the airport. The humming had stopped, snapping you from your thoughts.
"Ready?" Pip asked, helping you out of the car. You nodded with a grin, and grabbed your luggage. With a last hug from Walter, you and Pip set off to your private jet. Soon, the two of you would be in Paris!
The plane ride was 3 hours, which went by in a flash, thanks to Pip. He cracked many jokes, keeping you giggling and spitting out your drink. He also played a few pranks on the sleeping security guard, taking your mascara, eye shadow, and blush, to his face. When he woke, a few minutes after Pip was finished, he looked like the world's worst drag queen.
As the moon rose high in the sky, the plane was finally reaching your destination. You gazed out the window, watching as the lights from the Eiffel Tower gleamed in the night. Just as you were about to land, you could see the people scurrying about below, dancing in the streets, singing, loving, eating, it was amazing!
"It iz even better once your down zer," Pip whispered into your ear, looking out the window. Finally you had landed, and you were able to get off the plane with your luggage. Pip got the rental car, as you stared out the large glass windows of the airport, over-looking the city. It was beautiful, you felt comfortable, even safe here.
"Victoria? Ready to go?!" you heard from behind you. Pip smiled and pointed to the black BMW in the parking lot. You nodded with a grin and followed him out to the car, packing your things into the trunk.
"So, where are we heading?" you asked excitedly, as Pip started the car.
"It iz a zurprize!" he said with a laugh, a laugh that made you smile. You leaned up against the glass window, gazing out to the streets of Paris. "Imprezive, iz it not?"
"It's amazing!!" you said like a child in a candy shop! "It's everything I thought it would be!!"
Pip laughed at your excitment, suddenly slowing the car down.
"Are we here?" you asked, looking over at Pip.
"Oui!" he said, pointing ahead of him and stepping out of the car. You looked to see a beautiful, golden-painted building, huge in size. Your draw dropped to the ground, making Pip laugh even more.
"We're staying here?!" you gasped, as Pip grabbed your things.
"Oui, mon cherie!" he said, leading you into the hotel more like a castle!!
Once Pip had gotten the suite keys, and pulled you away from the front lobby there was a grand chandelier and a piano player in the center of the lobby!! , you were in your room. You ran into the suite, looking to see which bedroom you wanted. You took the bright yellow room, a very soft, comfortable place. It also had its own bathroom, which made you one happy camper. Pip walked into your room just as you fell onto the soft feathery bed.
"Awww...I wanted ze pretty yellow room!" he pouted, sitting down beside you.
"Finders keepers!!" you said, getting up to see the balcony. The marble floors, and the beautiful couches where amazing, but it was the view that blew you away...
The next day Pip gave you a grand tour around the city, taking you to the gardens, the cafes, the shops, even the museums. The people of Paris were glorious and happy, they made you feel welcome. Everywhere you went, there were lovers all over the place. They smoldered each other as if nothing else mattered in the world. It was actually kind of funny!
"Don't ever leave me, my one-eyed Frenchman!!" you moaned dramatically, falling against the Captain's chest as the two of you sat outside a cafe. He laughed as you made fun of a couple that had been dramatically smoldering each other right in front of you.
"I will never let you go my tea-drinking beauty!!!" he said sarcastically, draping his arms around you. Although it was a joke, you enjoyed his embrace, and let him stay that way for quite a while. Once the two of you realized what you were doing, you both drew away embarrassed, both nefariously laughing. "Oh...excuse me...cough"
"That's quite alright," you replied as calmly as you could. "I kind of...liked it."
Pip chuckled lightly, making you blush. He saw that, and took your hand. "Come, I vant to zhow you zomezing."
The woman staring back at you was beautiful, in her calm, happy smile. You stood beside Pip, who had his arm linked with yours, as if he was your big brother.
"I've always wanted to meet her," you said quietly, glancing at the masterpiece, Mona Lisa. Pip smiled and lead you over to the other paintings that made up the Louver. The glass building was incredible, like something out of dreams. It was dark by the time Pip was able to drag you out of the Louver.
"Ahh, ze city iz magic at night!!" Pip sighed happily as he wrapped an arm around your shoulders, making you stifle a giggle. The two of you had stopped to get something to drink, maybe a little too much.
"You're one touchy tour-guide!" you said, unraveling yourself and running off to the gardens of the hotel. He chased after you, as you hid behind bushes, in trees, jumping onto him from behind, scaring him half-to-death. Tag for adults!
Suddenly, Pip had you flung over his shoulders, like a kid, and was running into the hotel. He ran with you over his shoulder's up the 4 flights of stairs, opened the door and onto the couch. He lay you down, and then raced off to his own room.
What the hell?
After 5 minutes of no show from Pip, you sneaked over to his door and peaked in. He was changing into a pair of sweat pants, his shirt off.
Wow.
Without letting him hear you, you sneaked over to him, and quickly pulled down his pants! Seeing his red and white striped bowers made you burst out laughing, as you ran away from one angry Frenchman.
"Gotcha!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!" you squealed, racing around the place, with the captain following behind in his skimpies.
"J'ia trouver vous mon le th - les boissons babe!!" he screeched, chasing after you. You tried to figure out what he said, but tripped over the love-chair instead. Pip stumbled over top of you, laughing like a madman! "Now I've got you!!!"
He went straight for your stomach, tickling you like crazy, making you laugh and cry at the same time. "I surrender! I surrender!!"
"Yay! I win!!" Pip squealed like a kid winning some candy! He got off of you and did a strange little victory dance. You took this chance and lunged straight for his skimpies!! "Oh no you don't!!"
He rolled you over before you could pull down his bowers, the two of you ending in an awkward pose.
"My oh my!!" you laughed, pulling yourself away. You may have been a little tipsy but you still had most of you decency!
"Okay, I'm done, time for beddy-bye," Pip groaned, as you heaved him off the floor. You helped him over to his room, and pushing him onto the bed. As you turned to leave, his arm caught yours and pulled you down beside him. "Stay with me."
"Your drunk, and need some rest." you replied with a smile, getting a pitiful pout from Pip.
"Zo are you!" he whined, pulling you closer. You shook your head and got away running to the door.
"Good night Casanova!!" you said before shutting the door and heading towards your room. You quietly slipped off your clothes and put on a small white night gown, and hopped into bed. Just as you were about to drift off to sleep, there was a whisper in your ear.
Hello, little angel...
