Two hours into this damned meeting.
That or I probably went to hell.
"I propose a new course of action for this situation." Ludwig's voice boomed from the front of the room.
Great, it was his turn to speak. I could never stay focused during his speeches, and it was a good thing I was sitting near the back this time.
"Psst, Matt!" I folded up a piece of notepaper and tapped his shoulder."Paper football!"
He took a quick look at the front to see if Ludwig would notice, and then put his fingers together for the goal post.
Flick!
Damn, so close; the football bounced off his finger.
"It's okay, you tried." He teased.
"Shut up, I'll make it this time."
Flick!
The football slid over to where Angelique was sitting. She picked it up and turned around, looking at me and Matt.
"I'm guessing this is yours?"
"Your turn Angelique! Let's see your football skills!" I didn't really expect her to do it, but she flicked it and it flew right between Matt's hands."
"Lucky shot." I muttered. She gave a proud smile and turned around, flipping her hair.
I don't understand girls.
"Any questions or concerns?" Ludwig asked, taking off his glasses. After a period of awkward silence, he dismissed everyone and they flooded out the door.
Free at last!
"If this ends up with me having to drag you back to the hotel like last time, then I hope you'll be happy being left in the hallway." Matt said as we were walking down the steps outside the conference hall.
"It'll be worth it, come on!"
Just then, he spotted Angelique and stopped to talk to her.
"Salut. Doing anything later Matt?"
"Just going on a chocolate binge with Al. You know, the usual." He shrugged and chuckled. "Want to come?"
Wait, what? This was a bro kind of night!
"Ah, sure!" Angelique giggled and looked at me smugly. "Are you sure your brother won't mind?"
"Of course not! Isn't that right, Al?" He must have caught my expression because he elbowed my side. Hard.
"Fucking he―" He elbowed me again before I had the chance to finish. I don't think I've ever experienced so much pain in my life.
"Well, let's go!" She chirped, and grabbed Matt by the arm.
I take back the elbowing as the most painful thing I've ever experienced.
I never want to touch another piece of chocolate again.
"Matt, if I throw up on you I am so sorry." Shit, I couldn't even move.
"Mon Dieu, no, don't." He said.
"Aww, poor Alfred." Angelique put my arm around her shoulder to hold me up. Her perfume was sickeningly sweet.
They practically dragged me back to my room. When Matt opened the door, all of my clothes were scattered on the floor. Shit, I just remembered that I had to pack for the flight home tomorrow morning.
"Wow, your room's really messy!" Angelique kicked some clothes into a little pile as she walked in. What did you expect from a guy
I flopped onto the bed, and I could hear her and Matt tossing my clothes into my suitcase. I didn't realize how tired I was until I hit the sheets, and I buried my head into the pillow.
"Well, I guess we'll be off for the night. See you at the airport tomorrow morning, Al." Matt said and walked out with Ange. Yeah, I think I'll call her Ange now.
"Good night, Alfred." She said just before closing the door.
"Night, you two…"
Now for a couple hours of sleep before flight.
AN: Sorry for the long wait! But hey, I finally got around to posting this chapter. Also, can anyone tell me how to insert page breaks other than the horizontal line? Every time I try to add something like dashes or things like that they always disappear when I save changes...
Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the story so far! ;v;
