Yet another msg to Miss Popular - aka Llyria

[christophe]

A text message to Lia:

"are you free this weekend? I am hoping we can meet up. Perhaps you can let me know.... Christophe"

[Lia Juarez]

Lia was half afraid when her phone rang again that Taki had changed his mind and was canceling on her. She pulled it slowly from her pocket and watched it vibrate a moment until it stopped. Flipping it open it wasn't the number she was expecting at all. It took her a moment to realize it was the number she had been hoping for since Wednesday evening.

"Oh Goddess... it's him," she whispered, her eyes glued to the text screen. He wasn't as fun as Taki, but he was so good looking, had a lovely accent and as far as she knew free. She pounded her feet against the floor in apparent excitement before pulling up the text. She read the short message and grinned, ignoring her confused table mates.

Typing furiously, Lia replied.

I would love to. I will be free anytime after 2pm tomorrow. Let me know. I am looking forward to seeing you again and hearing that incredible accent of yours. hugs, Llyria

It was odd typing out Llyria, it was so rare she used her full name, but Christophe was well worth it.

[christophe]

Incredible accent? Christophe half smiled as he read Llyria's reply. As far as he was aware he didn't possess an accent of any description. Well maybe a slight one as the Parisian way of speaking was very different to, for instance, one founf in Reims... or Lyon. Of course, he wasn't listening to himself speak with a pair of non-French ears.

It was good to read that she wanted to meet up with him on Saturday afternoon and while he hadn't a clue where they'd go or what they'd do he found himself relishing the prospect of spending some more time with the beautiful flaxen-haired girl. Between them they were sure to come up with a plan and if that included dinner afterwards then so much the better.

Christophe quickly keyed in a reply...

'Wonderful! I will meet you at the shopping centre as its about the only place I know how to find! 2 o'clock... and I will leave Renard at home this time! Christophe'

He sent the text... and then had second thoughts, writing a follow up one and sending that as well... 'hugs back'

With a satisfied smile on his lips he closed his phone and slipped it into his pocket. Tomorrow was definitely looking up!

[Lia Juarez]

Lia even managed a giggle upon the receipt of two responses from Christophe. She wouldn't have minded Renard coming along but the pup did demand a lot of attention which would be better spent on each other. Responding, she typed.

I will meet you at the same place we met, it will be a shame not to have a leash to get tangled up in though, but hugs are even nicer, Llyria.

Her smile remained on her face long after she put her phone away. Jandro even tickled her trying to find out her secret, but she didn't budge.

[christophe]

He read Llyria's reply with a smile and a sense of satisfaction - mingled with relief. Christophe hadn't been all that sure she'd agree to meet him but was very glad she had. Other than Patch at lunch time and the two girls he'd met earlier - Silver and Emma - he'd yet to meet anyone. That made the prospect of a long and lonely weekend somewhat unappealling. Now that had changed - at least for Saturday afternoon. That actually worked out well as he still had a stack of stuff to unpack as well as help his parents unbox household items. He could do that in the morning and easily make it to the shopping centre for 2.

"Perfect," he murmured softly and he slid his mobile back into his pocket on his way to his locker.

Christophe rummaged for the texts he'd need for his afternoon classes and with a far lighter step than he'd displayed earlier he headed to his first lesson of the afternoon...

(wrapped... for this TC... I think?)

(ooc; yes I think so unless they decide to get mushy and spend all day texting silliness. lol)

(ooc: Nice thought but probably wouldn't happen - yet!)
