Blair " And then? What did you think? " I whirled around in front of the cell phone camera, showing my mother my outfit. " You look great with your new haircut," she complimented from the other side of the screen, "it should be easier to pin up now.” " Mom, focus please," I groaned. " Sorry, but I don't understand what you want me to see," she returned. " Mom, I showed you three different outfits," I threw myself on the bed in the hotel room I occupied in Madrid, "I have fifteen minutes to finish getting ready.” " You look nice in all the clothes," she returned. " You're not helping," I muttered. " I don't even understand what you want help with! Shouldn't you be back today?” " I am, but I have two hours before I have to go to the airport, so I can have lunch with a friend at the hotel restaurant," I hurriedly explained, "and I need to meet him in ten minutes, so if you can help.” I went through the options I had sorted out, trying to make a decision. Why couldn't I just cho

Blair " Let me get this straight, the guy you say is just your friend spent the day introducing you to a city in another country on his cell phone and bought you an old music box? " Abby asked sitting next to me on the couch the next day. " I know what you are thinking and you are wrong. Dimitri and I just have a lot in common. Maybe she wasn't so wrong, but I would never admit it. " Like what?” " We work traveling the world, we know many countries, we speak many languages," I listed. " This is all obvious, you met at an airport," she rolled her eyes, "but what about personal tastes?” " Well…” At this point I had to admit that we didn't have much in common. In fact, it seemed to be the complete opposite. I loved beaches and he loved historic cities. I liked to find flea markets and unknown places while he opted for museums, famous sights and classic restaurants. But still I had loved to let him plan a full day for us. " Well? " Abby insisted. " He's helping me discover

DimitriI stared stunned at the image of Blair in her wedding dress. What's going on?" Oh this… you won't believe it," she seemed amused by the situation.Two girls sat down on either side of her, watching me expectantly. One was the same one who had accompanied Blair the day we met. " Hey Commander, this is Claire and Alison. The friends I told you about," Blair smiled, "We came with Abby to pick out her wedding dress.”" I'm no expert, but wasn't she supposed to wear the dress? " I decided to tease her.Surely this was some kind of joke between them, but I would never miss the opportunity to tease her." Ahh, Abby is getting dressed now. Blair chose this dress for you," Claire confided." Wha... No," Blair widened, pushing her friend away, "that's not what happened!”I knew I should leave her alone and not tease her about it." Blair, haven't we already talked about this? " I sighed, causing her to roll her eyes on the other side of the screen." Quiet.”" What did you talk abou
Flights and destinations - The Lovely Life Of Blair 16. Interactive Play in Zurich
Dimitri"I'm done getting ready, are you ready?" I sent the message to Blair, it was a few minutes before the agreed time to the date and I felt the anxiety consuming me. It had been ten days since we had last seen each other and we would have this night together in Zurich. I would be boarding again in the morning so we decided to make the most of the time we had." Almost, did you get the restaurant reservation?" she replied."Confirmed for eight o'clock, it's one of the best restaurants in town. We were lucky"I put on my overcoat, getting ready to go to the hotel she was staying at, which luckily was on the same block as mine. "You're such a snob.”I frowned at that message."I love it.” She then added, making me smile before leaving the room."I'm on my way.”A few minutes later, when I was already on the street, she replied."I'm in the hotel lobby.”I didn't take long to spot her. Blair was tucked inside her overcoat, exposed to the 40 °F temperature that plagued the city in

DimitriThe lights dimmed, indicating the beginning of the play." Quiet, it's starting," I whispered, kissing her temple." One summer night, in a forest, four young lovers meet and miss each other: Lisandro loves Hermia who loves Lisandro and is loved by Demetrius, who is loved by Helena " The gentleman who welcomed us started walking among the tables and seats scattered around the hall declaring loudly and clearly.Soon afterwards a couple came on the scene, a young woman and a gentleman." Father, please don't make me. I love Lisandro!” " Hemia, I know what's best for you," the man declared, "at least try to enjoy your engagement party, Demetrius is a good man.”" This is a nightmare," Blair groaned beside me." Pay attention," I scolded.For a few minutes it worked, Blair remained silent while Lisandro and Hermia planned their daring escape. " Helena, you must help me," Hermia approached Blair, holding her hands, "You must distract Demetrius during this party.”" Ohh I... " Bla

Blair" What did you bring me this time? " my mother asked, looking at the bag I was carrying as I walked beside her through the streets of the great bazaar of Istanbul.In three days I would meet Dimitri in London and I had been counting the hours since we last met in Zurich." Do you want to see it now? " I rummaged through the bag as we entered a spice store. " Sure.”I pulled out the souvenir, handing it to her.Lauren frowned, shaking it only to watch the artificial snow fall around the Zurich landscape inside the globe." A snow globe? " she raised both eyebrows." What's the problem?”" I thought you didn't like snow globes. You always considered them... What was the word? " she thought for a second " tacky, right?”" I thought you would like them. Dimitri chose.”" ohhhhh, Dimitri," she imitated a slight Russian accent." Why are you talking like that?” " Like what?”" Like you've just been hired by a Russian phone sex agency" I returned. " I'm not talking like that," she c

Blair" Blair," Dimitri's voice sounded through the loudspeaker of the car I had rented at the LA airport. " The GPS says I'll be there in ten minutes, Commander," I crooned, "I've already made our entire route to Carmell. I already know what we are going to see.”" Ten minutes? " he took a deep breath." You don't seem happy about it. Is there a problem? " I frowned as I focused on the traffic." My aunt and uncle want to meet you," he whispered.This information took me by surprise. The deal was that he would spend the first few days at his aunt and uncle's house in LA while I was in London, and when I returned, I would pick him up and we would go together to Abigail's parents' town. I didn't expect to meet any of his family." So this is how it will work, Commander? I introduce you to my parents and you make me meet your entire family? " I scoffed, despite the confusion in my mind." Blair, this wasn't my idea," he took a deep breath." Why not? Don't you want your family to meet

Blair" Why did you accept this? " Dimitri muttered clearly displeased as I parked the car at the edge of the beach we were to visit before arriving in Carmel-by-the-sea.All right, I wasn't happy either, it seems he didn't want to give his cousin the wrong impression, and I didn't get a single kiss in the last two hours we were traveling together." You saw the way they were treating him," I returned, "he was going to spend Thanksgiving alone.”" He deals with it every day. He's used to it.”" You can't be serious," I scolded, "and besides, look at this little face.”We both turned around, staring at the young man who was sitting in the back seat of the car I was driving." You've let yourself be led astray by the puppy eyes, really? " Don't be so mean, commander," I winked at him in the middle of a smile." You know I can hear everything you say, right? " Joe yawned, "We're going to go see this beach, or…”" Let's go," Dimitri murmured, opening the car door and getting out.I follo
