<div style="text-align: justify;">Pierre smiled back at Martin, his eyes gazing into the actor’s with vivid curiosity. He could notice that Martin had realized what there was about him that they both shared. Of course, that was the intention. Even more, if possible, but for now, he only wanted Martin to feel that identification with him and feel that he could open up to Pierre when he felt like it. It would go unsaid, of course, as Pierre knew that saying anything could cause Martin to suspect him. So, for now, he would play the role of the adoring fan and keep to himself. <br/><br/>The young man smiled brightly to the photo and thanked Martin profusely for the autograph. He seemed to be preparing to shake his hand and leave, when Martin asked that question. He seemed a little shy and shook his head in a somewhat saddened motion. “To be honest, I like doing historical plays, but I think you know that a struggling actor can’t really make choices”. The young man brightened up a little after these words. “Well, I am getting jobs, so I don’t think I should complain”, he added. “I will probably never be famous, but I will be happy if I can get steady jobs”.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;">-------------------------------------</div><br/><br/>While Pierre spoke to Martin, a young lady stepped out of the elevator. It was the Italian lady who had checked in around the same time they had. She was very well dressed, and carried expensive jewels. It was obvious that, whoever she happened to be, the young woman was a wealthy one.<br/><br/>Passing by Rich, she gave him a sideways glance and a smile. It was clear that her smile was almost an invitation. To what, exactly, was anyone’s guess.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;">-------------------------------------</div><br/><br/>~“Good, it is settled then”~, Colette replied when Paul approved her plan. She was really looking forward to spending the day with him as well, and even if nothing came of it, she was sure it would be a good day for both of them. After saying goodbye to Paul and thanking the girl at the desk, she excused herself and resumed doing her work. It would be a good day to work, as she was in a very good mood. And tomorrow, an entire day off work and to spend with a new friend and maybe - who knew - something a little bit better than that.</div>
