Storyline

Having taken a shower and made all of the preparations after the competitions, Lucie and Alex were getting ready for the gala evening. The girl was intensely doing her make up in front of a small mirror, keeping in mind all of the tricks Sophie had taught her about cosmetics. Alex just sneered, but however himself set off to straighten his long ginger hair , which succeeded in curling after a shower, with an iron. Not giving him a chance to finish this affaire, Lucie tore out the instrument out of his hands, starting making herself a styling, justifying it with a reason that she had more pother with clothing.

"Alex, promise me that you will behave yourself appropriately during the evening", laughed the young lady, getting a discontent expression on Alex's face in response.

"When did it happen that I behaved myself weirdly at social events?" frowned the lad, "I am, I can tell, the modesty and decency themselves!"

"Nah I'm kidding", waved her hand Lucie, giving the iron back to the guy, "However I can argue on modesty"

"Gahd, Lucie, you're speaking like your mom", Alex rolled his eyes and continued his "beauty routine".

The girl, having made sure that the makeup and the hairstyle were ok, proudly took her dress out of the closet. It was of a deep saturated red colour, knee-length. On her feet she was wearing white pumps on a rather high heel. Alex incredulously looked all over Lucie, who really rarely could be seen in elegant and feminine clothes. She just cunningly smiled, showing off in front of the mirror.

The young man was a bit relaxed in terms of clothes as he didn't want to stand out much. At this moment, when there still was some time before going out, while changing, having left only in his boxers, put on his red blazer, announcing that was his final look.

"Psycho", Lucie laughed, immediately taking a picture of him and sending it to Lara.

"Pff, like that I'll be noticeable", the redhead shrugged, doffing the blazer and reaching out for a white shirt.

The whole look of the guy wasn't really official, but all these all-together looked pretty decent: white shirt, red blazer over it, black skinny jeans and black classic shoes. Lucie approved this outfit, however noted that next to her he won't look presentably. Alex looked at her with a dig in his eyes. The two for the last time assessed their outfits, after what they set off to the dining hall. Not to get chilly on their way, Lucie wrapped into a big white knit scarf, and Alex went just like that, as everyone was aware of his unusual insensibility to cold.

People were already taking their places at the spread tables with ideally white clothes and accurately placed flatware. The dinner, which was lasting for two hours, passed by pretty quickly. The two have made friends with everyone around their table, entertaining the interesting conversation about life. Alex was chatting with one guy sitting next to him with especial passion, but he didn't succeed in asking for his name. Lucie was trying to be a linchpin of the company, but others weren't behind and every time were coming up with new topics for discussion.

After the meal it was the time for party. However, Alex had a slightly different plan. He grabbed Lucie with him to the bar. She already had a quick thought that he just want to get smashed, but was mistaken. He just wanted to watch others from the distance, as he wasn't in a mood for dancing.

"Well at least the music is nice" noticed Alex, who was feeling really calm and relaxed.

"True that" Lucie agreed, "Listen, why did you eat so little?"

"Psychos don't eat", the guy made a reference to the "nickname" which Lucie called him some time ago in the room, "An yeah, stop being Mrs Monet number two, I'm having enough of your mom in everyday life"

"As you want", she shrugged, "Maybe wanna order anything?"

"Ah volontiers*", joyfully agreed Alex, "I was exactly waiting for you to want some"

They ordered two vins chauds** with ginger and cinnamon, and after getting the drinks, sat onto the bar chairs, chatting and discussing the people around them.

The others, by the way, were spending their time amazingly, too. Many of them were dancing, others were standing around the dancefloor, having entertaining conversations, as one could hear by the laughter and joyful exclamations.

"Unusual Christmas", pointed out the lad, "but I love it"

"Yeah, couldn't agree more", smile Lucie, "Moreover, the company is just awesome"

"Ha, of course, sorry I'm not your beloved nerdy Quentin", jauntily smiled the redhead, gently punching Lucie in her shoulder.

"Eh, stop with this already. There's nothing between us, while, by the way, you're behaving yourself with him super weirdly", squinted Lucie.

"Cuz he's just a dumbassy dumbass, what else can you get from him?", the guy smiled somehow surprisingly too warmly, after what a silence hovered between friends.

"Well", Alex spoke again, "I owe a lot to this year with all of you, and to Mrs Monet swell for accepting me. I'm really getting better when being with horses and in all this environment".

"I'm glad to know that", answered Lucie, "You still haven't told me what had happened to you"

"Maybe some day I will. Ya know, the reaction of people on this is driving me mad, so... maybe next time", he had a sip out of his glass, after what ran his eyes around the space, "Hey, by the way, that guy over there is so trying to catch your attention"

"No way?!" Lucie shined at once, "You think I should come up to him?"

"Go ahead. It's Christmas after all. The time of weird and extraordinary deeds" grinned Alex.

"You're indeed having a great mood tonight", noticed Lucie, checking her hairstyle. "So, here I go"

The girl, letting the sense of tenderness guide her, hugged the redhead, after what, glancing at the mysterious guy from the dance floor, proudly set off in his direction.

"Have fun", calmly dropped Alex when she left, staying alone with his drink, music and thoughts.

The evening was relaxed and joyful. No one got bored in this building. Lucie came back in some time, grabbing Alex and pulling him to the group of people, which managed to form during Lucie's conversations with the mysterious guy. Only by 1:00 am all of the party started fading away, but if the official part was over, that wan't a reason for the majority of people to stop and so they kept on partying in their guest rooms and even corridors. Everyone chummed up surprisingly fast and were already hugging and promising to keep in touch with each other. That indeed was the true spirit of a Christmas night.

Alex's note: "Messieurs, if anyone by any chance knows the guy who was sitting next to me at the dinner table, immediately let me know. Either way, if you are reading this, comment. We didn't have a chance to finish our fascinating discussion xD"
