“What about you guys, I can’t just leave you out here alone at one in the morning,” I knew it was a stretch, but I was desperate for a reason why I should not go with the Frenchman. The truth was, even if he wasn’t like Adam, I could not comprehend the idea of being with another man. It was still too soon, wasn’t it?
“Look at him!” was all Suzie said. I could not deny that a big part of me wanted to go with him, but a bigger part of me wanted to run away and hide. The only problem was I was not the “running away” type of girl. Every challenge I have ever faced I’ve done so head on. I enjoyed the thrill of facing the impossible, to conquer and overcome it
. Am I really going to do this? Am I really going to go home with the Frenchman? Maybe he means to just offer me a ride home. Yeah, right, Emily, I snorted, rolling my eyes at my inner voice, of course that’s what he wants!
“Fine, but if they find my body in some alley somewhere tomorrow morning, just know that my blood is on your hands,” I warned her even as my friend hugged me encouragingly.
“You’ll be fine, I know it!” Suzie dragged me back to the man while smiling from ear to ear.
Suzie had always been the adventurous one of the group. She feared nothing and had the ability to seize each day despite the many curve balls life often threw at her. After a bad marriage and a career change, she managed to somehow grab life by the balls and will it to do her bidding. I envied her carefree, confident spirit, especially when it came to men. While I allowed my breakup with Adam to turn my life upside down, she would have long since moved on. Therefore, tonight I would channel her amazing spirit.
“Have fun y’all,” she said as she walked over to Diana, who had a look on her face that I could not quite interpret. At first glance, it looked like jealousy, but I knew that that could not be accurate. Still, I made a mental note to ask her about it tomorrow.
“Shall we?” the Frenchman said as he stuck out his arm for me. Hesitantly, I took it.
I looked up at him and narrowed my eyes, “First things first, mister… I need a name. Just in case you decide you’re a rapist tonight, I need to know who to hunt down.” Though he seemed to take what I said as a joke, I was far from joking; my face was as serious as possible.
“Julien Belmont, it is a pleasure to meet you,” he said as he brought my hand to his incredibly soft lips, while still smiling. Almost instantly, I felt my defenses melting.
Dang!
“Julien… of course… well, I’m Emily Roberts,” I said while staring at his lips. It was at that moment I knew that I was in for trouble…
