A few days passed, on saturday evening when they were all cuddled together and were watching some movie and eating popcorns, Amy's phone rang. She paused the movie and picked up her phone. Everybody grumbled at her and she said,"Might be important. Wait a sec guys" and she left the room. She picked up the call and said ,"Hello! Amy Black speaking. Who's this?" A smooth voice came from the other side,"Who in this bloody hell gave you the surname of Black!" The voice said exasperated. Amy smiled and said,"What's up Paul?" Paul replied,"Oooohhh!! You got me. Maybe I left a good impression on you then." Paul sounded pleased with himself and then continued,"Well! There's something important that I need to discuss with you. Can you maybe drop by the K2 production house anytime soon?" Amy replied,"Yeah sure! Why not? Will tomorrow do?" Paul said happily,"Perfect. See you at 11 then." Amy said,"yeah, see you." And she re-entered the room.
Em asked,"Who was that?" Amy shrugged and said,"Just Paul." Ember wore a mischievous smile and said,"Ooohh!!... so how come he called you?" Amy took her place beside her again and said,"He wanted to meet. Said its something important. Tomorrow at 11." Em hummed and said,"I will want details." Amy laughed and said,"It must be related to work and we are just friends. Now concentrate on the movie." Everybody enjoyed the movie but Archie was lost in his own world of thoughts.
The moment movie ended, Archie blurted out,"Are you going to go alone?" Everybody gave him confusing looks and Amy said,"Ehrmm.....About that. I think... yeah. If you people have no problem with it." Archie started to say something,"I-" but was cut off by Em,"Yes sweetie. We've no problem at all." Archie huff(ed) and Em glared at him.
The next day Amy got ready in a red crop top with high waist charcoal black jeans and black boots. She said good bye to her friends before departing.
Reaching the production house, she met Paul outside the building. Under the sun his skin appeared to be producing a halo all around him. His hazel coloured eyes were hidden by his black shades. He was leaning casually against a wall wearing blue damaged jeans a white sleeveless vest like t-shirt. He didn't look like some rich lad like he was and instead he looked his age, a carefree handsome boy.
He greeted Amy with a small hug and said,"Here you are at last. Come on there's a small cafe come sweet dishes store down the road." Amy smiled at him and said sarcastically,"Hey to you too. Lead the way." He clasped his hands with Amy's and made his way to the cafe.
He said,"They serve really tasty sweets. Hope you are hungry." Amy chuckled and replied,"Famished." They both laughed at that.
Sitting down Paul said,"Order anything you want. Its on me." Placing their orders Amy said,"So what did you want to talk about?" Paul replied,"Oh! About that. The production house that I work for want to give a go to your band and I volunteered to talk with you and convince you." Amy gave him a toothy smile and said,"Oh my God! That would be amazing." She then paused and after a moment continued,"I'll need to discuss with them before I give you an answer." Paul said,"Oh! Not to worry. Do take your time. One week is enough for you to make the decision?" Amy smiled and said,"Perfect but you won't have to wait that long. I'll try to give you an answer by today's evening only." Paul grinned and said,"and what if I take up more of your time today?" She gave him a confusing look and Paul just smiled. Their order arrived and they chatted while eating.
After finishing and paying they walked around and just chatted. Paul said,"Blimey! Its nearly 4. I'm sorry I took so much of your time." Amy's bewilderment could be seen on her face but then she smiled and said,"I lost track of time. You are a great talker and a friend for that matter. I really enjoyed this chat." Paul grinned and said bowing ,"I'm honored."
Amy laughed and said,"You are such a tease sometimes. I should be leaving now."
Paul said,"Oh no! I'll drive you back. Lets walk back to the production house. My car is there in the parking lot." Amy replied," No! No! I can't trouble you. I'll just take a cab back home."
Paul pouted and said,"Come on! Its no trouble at all. I want to. That way I get more time to spend with you." Amy smiled shyly at that and Paul grabbed her hand and walked back to the production house
