Fourteen

Ariel couldn't sleep that night. She had been lying in bed, tossing and turning for hours, her mind racing with thoughts of her encounter with Luoise. She had come to Paris with a sad heart, knowing everything here would remind her of a marriage that would never be hers but here is hse staying up and smiling for a strnager. But just when she thought the night would be wasted, her phone pinged with a message from Louise.

"Can't sleep either?" the text read and a soft smile made it's way to her face. She wasn't expecting him to text her this early and especially not this time of the day. Since he already did, she will take advantage of the situation herself.

"Yeah, maybe it's something in the air." She replied before watching the message get read almost immediately. Tonight is going to a very long one, especially with no sleep in sight.
