Alex entered the restaurant, running her hands down on the dress she decided to wear that night. The dress wasn't anything fancy, she knew this dinner date wasn't going to be that important, but she still wanted to look nice. She simply decided to wear a blue v-neck dress, the kind that just stopped just above her knees, showing off her legs in her blue matched heels.

She looked around to see a man standing at the front desk with a small little booklet that would be holding the 'list' for people, and she knew that she had found the right person. She exhaled, pushed her hands against her dress one more time before making her way towards the man in the white and black suit.

" May I help you miss?" The man asked once she had planted herself right infront of him. The man had a very thick accent of french, making Alex giggle in her head a little ... it reminded her of Sebastien.

" I have a dinner date with two other ladies." She replied, holding her purse tightly in her grip as it layed on her shoulder.

" And your name?" He asked as he flipped open the little black booklet, revealing names that had been written down in an orderly fashion.

" Alexandria Buhler." She replied as she shifted her eyes towards the paper, wondering if her name was truly on the list or not.

" Ah, Miss. Buhler." The man smiled as he finally came across her name. " You are with the party Miss Carla Green and Miss Ingrid Aguilar?"

" Yes, sir." She replied.

" Right this way." He smiled towards her, his brown eyes looking into hers as he led her the way through people, down the hall, and into the big room of dining.

Alex tried to feast her eyes on the room before her, there was indeed a reason why it was called the "Labrinth", it was big! Her eyes traced over the marron painted walls, with matching carpet, tables and booths as she continued to follow the man, trying to have her heels keep up the pace with him.

" Ah Alex, you made it." Ingrid replied once Alex had reached their location. She stood and smiled at Alex, letting her head and eyes trace her whole, entire body. " You look beautiful."

" Thank you." Alex replied quietly as she could feel herself blushing.

Alex took a quick glance at Ingrid, noticing her dress and she knew Ingrid realy couldn't mean her compliment. Ingrid looked ravishing in a strapless red dress that flowed just the middle of her thighs, showing how lean and built they were. She indeed had some nice legs to show off, especially in such nice hills that she was wearing that night.

" I will leave you ladies to your menus." The man smiled at all three of them before leaving.

" Of course you know Carla, from the meeting." Ingrid smiled as she turned towards Carla, hinting for her to stand up.

" Oh yes, it's nice to meet you again." Alex smiled, in response to Carla's standing.

Alex took a look at Carla as she stood up, she indeed looked beautiful as well. Even though she was wearing a skirt instead, the white skirt was indeed showing the roundness of her behind, and the lovely legs that she had as well. And of course the outfit looked perfect with her red t-shirt and a nice black bealt to hug her small, middle area, showing off every nice curve she had. Alex could feel herself becoming jealouse again.

" Nice to meet you too." Carla smiled as she reached for Alex's hand, shaking it gently.

" Well, we should sit down and have a look at these menus." Ingrid smiled as she placed her hands underneith her while she sat down in her seat, making sure her dress doesn't crinkle from underneith.
Alex smiled as she sat in the seat infront of, trying to take this situation as best as possible.

" So Alex, where are you from?" Carla asked as she opened her menu.

" I'm from New York." She smiled as she looked across at Carla.

" Ah, we needed someone from the states." Ingrid smiled as she took a sip of her wine before opening her menu. " I'm from Spain."

" And I'm from Portugal." Carla added as she looked across at Alex.

" Oh, that's nice ... must be strange to be here in Paris." Alex replied as she looked around the room they were in. " I mean it's so different from New York, that's for sure."

" Yes, it truly is ... and Spain as well." Ingrid smiled as she looked down into her menu.

The dinner went well, Alex didn't experience any embarrassment or awkwardness as she thought she would, she actualy quite enjoyed the ladies. They were very kind to her, asking all about her and trying to get to know her. It was then Alex would feel horrible, she was judging them by their beauty, and not who they truly were. After the both Ingrid and Carla would get to know Alex, Alex would then ask both of them question and try to get to know them as well, making everybody feel comfortable and important.

No sooner did they eat all of their food on their plates, and Alex had found herself completely relaxed, and comfortable with the ladies. She was happy to know that they were all trying to be friends, and get to know eachother.

The waitor had brought them the bill, and they all stared at eachother, wondering who was going to offer to pay. After a few seconds of silence, Ingrid decided to pay for the food since it was her idea in the first place to have dinner with the girls. Alex sat there they made small chit chat, while Ingrid wrote out a check, waiting for the waitor to come and recieve the money. Then Alex remember that she still had to apologize the them, and tell them how sorry she was for earlier, and how rude she acted.

" Listen girls ... I have to say something, and I am quite frankly a little embarrassed." Alex replied as she sat up straight in her chair.

" What is it?" Ingrid asked, looking and sounding a bit concerned.

" Well, I just want to apologize to you." She then took her glance from Ingrid to Carla. " To both of you, I was rude earlier in the interview in Simon's office, and I feel realy bad."

" Wait, what are you talking about?" Carla asked confused.

" I mean," Alex paused as she shifted in her seat, feeling herself become uncomfortable again. " when I said that I could take pictures by myself ... that was rude, and I'm sorry."

" Oh, that." Ingrid replied as she layed back in her seat.

" That's okay, Alex." Carla replied, swating her hand in the air.

" Oh, thank you for understanding." Alex smiled as she lifted the wine glass to her lips, letting the liquid slip slowly into her mouth.

" Yeah, I just thought you had a thing for Sebastien which is why I thought you said that." Ingrid replied, before sipping her wine.

Alex chocked on her wine once she heard the words escape into the room. She coughed a couple of times before taking a napkin and dabbing it to the side of her mouth, whiping all access liquid off her skin.

" Excuse me?" Alex cleared her throat with raised eyebrows, her eyes studying Ingrid's figure.

" Oh, you don't?" Ingrid asked, after sitting her glass on the table.

" I ... I ... uh...." She studdered but then was interupted.

" Well, I wouldn't blame you if you did... have you seen him?" Carla chuckled.

" Uh .... no, I have seen him ... but not in that particular way ... I don't think." Alex replied, as if thinking outloud to herself.

" Well, my point is if you don't want to take pictures of him ... I will." Ingrid smiled evily as she grabbed her purse from the floor.

" Same here." Carla smiled towards Alex, raising her wine glass in the air before taking the last sip of it.


Alex lazily made her way down the hallway and towards Sebastien's room number. What a dinner that was, she was happy that she had apologized to both Carla and Ingrid, but now she had embarrassed herself. Now both ladies think she has a thing for Sebastien. Alex knew that deep down she still loved him, but was she making it that obviouse to people? This was something she didn't want to expose.
She ran her fingers through her hair, pushing the strands out of her face as she slid the key through the door, making a recognizable green lite appear on the lock. She lazily pushed the door open, she was tired and just wanted to go to her bed .... or his bed.

Alex looked around the place, he was no where to be found. She went to the living room, he wasn't sleeping on the couch like he said he would. She looked at the clock on the wall, it was only 10 so he couldn't possibly be in bed, especially on a Friday night. She made herself walk into the kitchen, seeing if there was a note or something to explain that he wasn't there, but there was nothing. She shrugged as she made herself towards the bedroom she would be sleeping in, she was too tired and just wanted to go to sleep.

Just as Alex entered the bedroom, she soon realized that she hadn't used the bathroom all day, and thought it would be a good idea before she would go to bed. She placed her purse on the bed, before crossing in the hallway, and opening the bathroom door across from the bedroom.

Hot steam hit her face as she entered the little room, see that the lights in the room were on through the thick clouds. She adjusted her eyes into the steam, trying to figure what was going on when her brain finally registered and she realized that Sebastien was taking a shower ... or so she thought. The steam cleared infront of her, and there standing was a naked Sebastien, with a towel in hand. He must have sensed her in the room, and looked up to see her face completely red.

" Alex?" He asked, trying to adjust his eyes to the steam as well.

" Oh my god! I'm so, so sorry." She replied, feeling completely embarrassed, but still unable to take her eyes off the figure before her. " I just had to use the restroom, but I can see you're busy."

" Oh, uh .... just one second." Sebastien replied as he quickly turned his back on her, wrapping the towel around him. He knew it was too late, but he still didn't want to expose himself to her ... that is ... not yet. He then turned to face her again. " I just needed to take a shower, here let me get out so you can use it."

" No, it's fine ... it can wait." She replied, she was still unable to take her eyes off of his well built skin. She watched as the water slowly dripped down over his chest, then further down until it had reached his loosly wrapped towel, soaking in the cotton. " Um ... I will just be in the bedroom."

Sebastien couldn't help but smile, and chuckle to himself, he knew exactly what she was thinking. He knew that she was liking what she was seeing, and he couldn't help but feel good.

" Okay, I will let you know when I am done." Sebastien smiled, pushing his wet bangs back through his fingers.

Alex nodded silently as she stepped back, opened the door and slowly closed it. She placed one hand on her mouth, her eyes widened after closing the door infront of her. She had just seen Sebastien naked, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She felt her face grow completely red as she slowly made her way back to the bedroom, closing the door silently behind her.
