The Girl In The Louvre - Chapter 4 All It Takes Is A Glance To Fall In Lov
Suddenly realizing why she was so comfortable and where the scent had come from was, Zhi Rou’s face that had finally returned to its normal colour flushed red again. ‘Marry him?’ she thought, ‘it is probably just a joke, after all, who would propose to a stranger that they just met?’ His arm around her waist felt like a warm flame and his hot breath blew gently on her neck as she listened to his heart beating heart beating softly through his chest and onto her back.
“Ah, you’re so clumsy Zhi Rou. Thank god that Julian managed to catch you or you could have been seriously hurt,” said Jie Fang as the ran over. Seeing that Zhi Rou still had no intention of getting up and people were starting to come over to see if they were okay she hurriedly pulled her up. Leaning close and whispering into her ear she said, “you may as well jump into his bed if you are that into him, but just don’t do it on the floor of the museum.”
“*Cough cough* what are you talking about?” Asked Zhi Rou, her voice an octave higher than usual. “I just was in a bit of a daze.” As she was talking to Jie Fang she turned around and looked at the guy on the floor. Even lying on the floor of a museum he looked completely at home, with one leg slightly bent and his arms propping himself off of the floor. His hair was all messed up from the fall and his shirt was all scrunched up. Showing his ivory white waist and abdomen, complete with V-lines and glorious abs.
‘Wow you wouldn’t think that he was that fit just looking at him,’ thought Zhi Rou as she went over to help him up. “I am really sorry, are you alright?”
“I am alright, it isn’t every day that a beautiful girl decides to fall into your arms. Not to mention you have done it twice today, would you like to try it one more time? After all, the third time is the charm,” said Julian with a smile as if he never noticed her staring at his stomach.
She smiled slightly as she reached down to lift him, her heart beating so fast that she thought it would break out of her chest. Maybe it was because she had already fallen into his arms twice today, but the feeling of his soft hands holding onto hers felt so natural. It was like the joining to two puzzle pieces to form a whole picture, completing an otherwise incomplete whole.
‘Maybe this is true love? Or destiny?’ she thought as they started walking again.
“What are you doing after seeing the picture?” asked Julian. “If you are not doing anything perhaps you could come with me and buy some macarons from the gift shop? I’ll treat you.”
Zhi Rou glanced at Jie Fang and after confirming that it was okay she said: “We are not doing anything but we have to go to the park in one hour so we can’t stay long.” ‘I wish we could live in this moment forever, then I would never have to leave him.’ Unfortunately, the cruel reality that they would be going to the park with their teacher in the afternoon and then flying back to China in the evening was weighing heavily on her mind. ‘At least this could be considered a date right?’ she thought as they moved passed the crowds that were increasing as the neared the Monalisa. ‘Of course, Jie Fang is still here.’ Jie Fang smiled as when she saw her best friend looking at her, not knowing that her ‘best friend’ wanted her to leave.
“Okay here we are, this is the world famous Mona Lisa. There are a lot of people so we have to squeeze forward to take a picture,” said Julian with a smile, knowing that he had completed his mission and macarons awaited them afterwards.
