After school....
'Obviously he brought Mecelli with him. I should have expected that. There are rumors that their dating now so I suppose it makes sense. Still I invited him out to get closer to him, extra people are hard to deal with and I had no plans with her. How exactly to drive her off could be...'
"Hey!" He waves ethusiastivly once he sees me waiting near the doors.
"You brought a friend?"
"Ah Sorry was that bad?"
"I already told him he shouldn't bring me, I could leave if you'd like"
"What? No! Stay! You don't mind right"
Though I barely manage not to hide my discomfort I agree to let her come with. Soon we are all walking to a popular cafe called Gâterie du Ciel.
"Y'know this place is pretty famous!" Walking in I hold the door open for the other two.
"Ohhh, I've yet to go here!" Smiling Atriel goes to get a seat.
"It seems like a place I'd bring someone for a date" was Mecelli's comment.
All of us sit down and I slightly glare as she sits down next to Atriel. Something about it makes me rather uncomfortable. With a slight glare at Mecelli I sit down across from Atriel and we all order. We then talk about nothing important so I'm only half tuned in. But the overall vibe is rather happy.
What I'm more focused on the princess however. One of my goals is to create a travesty without directly causing harm. To do so then would mean to push someone else to do something. I already have a reason to deal with Atriel and from what I've heard it wouldn't be hard to manipulate him if I got close to him. He's not dumb but he sure isn't self aware.
On the other hand princess is known to be crafty. She would absolutely pay attention to what I'm doing. Though I do in fact have plans if I ever have to use her but it'd be easier to work with Atriel. What a pain, my first plot and I've already got a brat in the way.
"How about I walk you to your place?" I said.
"What?" Full stop Mecelli turned to me.
"I was talking to Atriel, I assume you already have guards and such waiting to get you. I had plans with Atriel in the first place so it would make sense for him to have expected this" Glaring I responded, as such.
"He has always been walking with me wouldn't he come home with me naturally?"
At this point we were slightly ahead of Atriel so the two of us stopped and turned around to wait for his answer.
"A-ah um. Sorry Mecelli I did have plans with Leosi"
"Heh"
"Hmph"
*************
Atriel POV
*************
I had already planned to go out with him. In fact he had invited me out!
"So I have a date with this guy and-"
"Wait, back up a second, what?"
"What do you mean?"
"Considering how you've acted previously what's so great about this person that you agreed to date them?"
"You should meet them!"
"Okay-"
"Then after school you can come along with us!"
"I'm not sure that's a great idea."
"Don't worry I don't think he will mind"
.....
After school I dragged Mecelli out with me to meet him. Once I see him I call out and wave.
"You brought a friend?"
"Ah Sorry was that bad?"
Now that I think about it it's not like I told him I was bringing someone, no wonder he's upset.
"I already told him he shouldn't bring me, I could leave if you'd like" Mecelli offers to leave however Leosi is so laid back I don't think he'll mind.
"What? No! Stay! You don't mind right"
He agrees but he doesn't seem very happy about it. When I told Mecelli this she said nothing seemed like that.
We soon reach a cafe I had been meaning to try but never got the chance to.
"Y'know this place is pretty famous!" He cries out so proudly. So cute!
"Ohhh, I've yet to go here!" I say. I'm glad I haven't or I wouldn't be able to get this happy introduction my first time.
"It seems like a place I'd bring someone for a date" Mecelli says. Thinking about it, were it just me and Leosi it would've been a date.
I sit down first then Mecelli pulls up next to me. This gets her a quick glare from Leosi that both of us noticed. Is he jealous?! He then sits across from me.
We eat and then leave. While we were walking to Mecelli's chauffeur he offered to walk me home. Am I closer to here than he is? Well my apartments nearby at the very least. I agree to go with Leosi.
"Would you like me to have someone drive you home?" I ask.
"Sure" Smiling he grabs my hand and runs slightly ahead. Soon we reach my house.
"Here's my number!" Taking out a slip of paper he hands it to me then turns around saying "see you tomorrow!"
"C-c-cute," I whisper under my breath slightly blushing. I can't wait to see him tomorrow, and because he has my chauffeur I can learn his address!
