I saw her in Paris

Sleep Embraced

Helena arrived at Dayane's apartment late at night. As she climbed the stairs, she wondered if her friends were really at home. And if they were, would they be alone or in company... and who would be with them.

Even because she didn't feel like bumping into someone n***d around the house...

She even entertained the idea of ​​spending the night at Sabriel's, so she wouldn't run into anyone. But when they said goodbye at the entrance to the building, he didn't bring it up and she didn't say anything either.

She passed through the door of her friends' rooms. She didn't hear any suspicious noises. She scolded herself for peeking behind the door.

"Either they've gone to bed or they haven't slept at home!"

A shiver ran down her spine at lightning speed: "What if your boyfriends are there with them? What a beauty, the apartment has become a mini cabaret!"

She already imagined who Dayane would be with: "I bet that naughty Frenchwoman is with that naughty journalist of her boyfriend!" And she didn't even want to wonder if Samantha was with anyone...

She didn't think twice. She took out her cell phone and texted Ray.

"Hi, good night. Sorry to send you an audio at this time, but can I see you tomorrow morning? Better yet, I'll stop by your apartment. Kisses!"

As soon as she got the audio, she changed out of her party clothes for her pajamas, packed some things to leave early tomorrow morning, and went to sleep...or at least tried to sleep.

Helena woke up in the middle of the night with a huge headache. In fact, her migraine was due to her paranoia, thinking there were more people in the house. Any noises she heard or thought she heard, she guessed it was someone walking around the house.

That is, her headache was lack of sleep... she was very sleepy, but she couldn't sleep. She took out her cell phone to check w******p. She didn't have any messages from any of them. She immediately thought of the worst:

"What if something serious happened to the two of them and that's why they can't let me know?" Now her headache will get worse.

She sent a message to each one, asking, or rather demanding, that they return to her immediately, to show any sign of life. She also announced that she would be out all day. And she also sent the same message to Thierry, in case he knew anything. In the midst of so many messages, there was a message from Sabriel, replying to her audio:

"Better yet, don't you want to come now?"

She laughed at the message. He replied a few minutes after sending it. She should be sleeping by now. Even so, she risked sending him some hearts.

❤❤❤❤❤

She got up to walk around the room. It was still dark on the streets of Paris. There were a few hours left for the first rays of sun to illuminate the city, if it didn't rain or snow. She decided to go back to sleep, or at least try to take a nap to see if the headache goes away. When she went to look at her cell phone again, she had one more message from him on her w******p:

"Can't sleep?"

She answered:

"Yes. Sorry, I just saw your message just now.

If I had seen it before, I would have gone.

He sent a smiley face. ?

"You can't sleep either?"

"More or less. I woke up to drink water and saw that it was online."

"I can't sleep. I'm sleepy."

"What was there?"

Helena had no idea how to explain that she didn't know if her friends were home or not and if they were with anyone, so she explained how she could. After her explanation, she saw that she had started typing. She made smiley faces. ????

She didn't understand and asked what the fun was.❔❔❔❔❔

"You look like a little girl scared of the boogeyman lol!"

????? She sent you a lot of crying faces.

"Wow, what happened?"

"You reminded me of my childhood trauma!"

"Oh Perdóname! I didn't know!

Helena laughed at the fright she got. She sent smiley faces.????

I'm kidding you fool. Wow, you take things too seriously!"

"What is this, revenge?"

"Yes, we're even!" ????

So she sent some hearts to him as a request for peace.

"Would you like to come over here and get some sleep?"

It was what she wanted and so did he. She sent several smiling faces saying yes:

?????? I'll be there soon!

As soon as she sent the message, Helena packed her things to sleep and spend the day at Ray's house. Whenever she goes on a trip, she always carries an extra suitcase or backpack for special occasions. And that was a special occasion.

She opened the bedroom door very slowly so as not to make any noise. As it was one of those very old doors, the door decided to creak just in time. At closing time, it was the same thing.

Before leaving, she looked around to make sure no one was passing by at the moment. Seeing that she didn't have anyone or at least she thought she didn't, Helena ran on tiptoe to the front door. She walked barefoot so as not to make noise. And just because she didn't want to make a fuss, she ended up doing it unintentionally.

The front door never felt so far away. When she finally arrived and managed to open the door, she heard what seemed to be a muffled sound coming from the bedroom of one of her friends. She didn't take another, slammed the door open, threw herself out of the apartment and closed it. She locked him outside and went downstairs barefoot. As she walked down the stairs, she wondered how she hadn't broken the door key.

She finally reached the lobby of the building. It was still dark and thick with fog. She could barely see anything. It's true that the building was next door, but she was too scared to walk through the fog. Even though she was used to walking the streets of São Paulo in the fog, she was still afraid. But she didn't know what it was like to walk the streets of Paris at dawn.

She took a chance. She walked to the building next door. She passed in front of the alley that separated the two buildings and heard a noise coming from there. She was paralyzed with fear. To make matters worse, she started to hear footsteps towards her. Thank the gods, it was him.

— Calma mi hermosa, it's me.

Helena hugged him relieved:

— Ela Christé Ké Panagiá, how afraid I felt now!

Ray didn't know what that phrase meant. Thinking it was some expression of fear, she hugged her trying to calm and warm her.

— Lets go in. It's very cold out here.

When they arrived at her apartment, Ray preferred to sleep on the floor or on the sofa in the living room and let Helena sleep in her bed. She knew how tired and sleepy she was to do anything. She didn't want to take a step bigger than her leg. But it was very cold and she regretted leaving him on the floor or on the sofa. Then she asked:

— Don't you want to sleep with me? It's too cold to sleep alone.

He even raised his eyebrows when she asked that. She wondered if she really wanted to sleep with him. But her proposal was totally different from what he expected.

— But it's just for sleeping... really sleeping... it's not sleeping 'like this'. — She's already warned you not to think nonsense.

Ray was a little disappointed when Helena said it was just for sleeping, but she understood. Because he was also very tired. Plus, he found the idea of ​​hugging her amusing. It was very cold and nothing better than sleeping with a spoon in this weather.

And of course, as they were together, they took the opportunity to date a little before falling asleep. Instantly, she hugged him like he was a gigantic teddy bear. Both Helena and Ray saw this as a preliminary to their long-awaited moment.
