With the holidays around the corner, everyone was busy. Harry had his hand full but he had a bit of extra time to assist his elderly father. It was a quick errand to hope over to Kavas Enterprises to finalize an agreement for funding Harry Sr's next project. Harry walked into Kavas Enterprises and was directed to Kemal's office. Seeing Kemal clearly busy at his desk, Harry gave a quick knock on the open door to announce his arrival. The eye contact gave him the signal to at least walk in. "I'm here on behave of my father. He had a financial agreement, and he just needed to make some adjustments. The production had some additions made. Just wanted to make sure if it's in budget. He couldn't make due to his health, so I'm here in his place."

𝑂𝑃𝐸𝑁  𝑆𝑇𝐴𝑅𝑇𝐸𝑅  𝐹𝑇.  𝐾𝐸𝑀𝐴𝐿  𝐾𝐴𝑉𝐴𝑆. 𝐿𝑂𝐶𝐴𝑇𝐼𝑂𝑁  :  his  office.

               he’s  been  actively  ignoring  the  individual  at  his  door,  making  it  known  that  he’s  more  than  aware  of  their  presence  by  looking  up  from  the  tablet  in  his  grasp  for  a  solid  moment  to  make  eye  contact  before  moving  back  to  business.  not  only  was  he  in  the  dog  house  and  forced  to  run  to  the  bathroom  for  testing  every  so  many  hours  (  as  if  he  could  actively  snort  anything  with  a  babysitter  on  duty  ),  but  he  was  drowning  in  stocks  that  continue  to  drop.  “  jesus  —  fucking  christ,  what  do  you  want  ?  ”  finally,  he  looks  up  to  properly  acknowledge  the  person  that’s  taking  up  space  in  his  office.

Harry gave him a grin. "No, thank you. I do apricate the concern. Not a lot of people would bother to check. Everyone is busy inside" Harry gave a quick glance over to the on going party inside. He had been in crowds like these since he could remember. But sometimes he too had to step away to collect himself. "That is fair. We all have our limits. Well I don't mind if you stick around out here. I don't have any plans on going back just yet. Besides the overwhelming crowds, you enjoying tonight? I've always loved Versailles."

“ Just  checking  up,  being  a  Good  Samaritan  and  all  that, ”  Micah  bantered  back,  not  meaning  to  cause  any  offense  to  the  older  man.  It  was  his  protective  nature,  coming  out  regardless  of  who  he  was  speaking  to.  “ Me?  I  don’t  do  well  with  crowds.  Never  really  have.  After  a  while  I  felt  like  the  room  was  crushing  me  so  I  came  out  to  get  fresh  air  and  look  at  the  gardens.  Not  a  wild  answer  or  anything. ”

Harry kept his grin. He was loving the vibes of the party so far. So many people were up to have fun. "Of course. I don't think it's allowed to not being drinking while in France." Harry gratefully took his own glass. This clearly wasn't his first one of the night. "Cheer, mate." He raised his glass with him. He took a long drink. "This place is truly amazing. I've been to France before but I've never got a chance to visit the Palace of Versailles."

- hamza looked down at himself , worried for a second that the thing he'd forgotten was his pants . once he saw he was fully dressed , he gave a sigh of relief . head tilted to the side in confusion though about what he could be forgetting until own question was answered . " oh you mean alcohol ... that makes a lotta sense now . don't have to ask me twice . " he grinned , plucking two of the glasses of the tray and passing one over to the other . " cheers . "

Harry couldn't help but keep his smile. "Come on. I'm not stupid. Drunk, but not stupid." Harry took a sip at his drink. "I've been watching you for a second. I know something is up." This was a party. He wanted to have a little fun. "I'll pay to know. Name your price. I won't snitch if there is a secret gathering in the gardens or something."

               facial  features  quickly  mask  innocence  as  she  pulls  herself  back  into  the  present  moment,  looking  upwards  towards  the  other  with  wide  eyes.  “  ——  i  simply  have  no  idea  what  you’re  talking  about.  ”

As soon as Harry approached the bar, he waved over the bartender for a shot. The flutes of champagne were not going to work anymore for him. "Thank you" He chuckled at the man's joke. Taking his first sip, he looked back at the party. Harry was used to these amount of people but from time to time he needed some room to breath. "Not insufferable, I've been to events bigger. I just needed to step away. I suppose all of this can be a lot." He introduced himself. "I'm Harry." He extended his hand.

◜   ♱   :   "    not    at    all,    i'd    hate    to    be    the    one    drinking    up    the    bar    tab.    "    humour    lingers    by    the    edge,    legarthic    gaze    thrown    haphazardly    over    his    shoulder    for    a    brief    moment,    "    the    whole    thing's    a    bit    insufferable,    isn't    it    ?    "  

He extend his hand for her to take and lead her to the dance floor. It had been a while since Harry saw Julieta. "You look amazing." He was pleasantly surprised to see her at the event. "How are you enjoying the party so far? You meet a lot of interesting people at things like this. "

doe-eyed femme swivels to face source of masculine timbre , her ivory ensemble flittering due to movement . “  i'd like that very much .  ” small smile beginning to form , the suggestion was UNEXPECTED considering the eyes on his every action .

"That's the way to do it. I think most of my first auditions were won by a swig of liquid courage." He continued to sip at his current drink. "You don't have to tell me twice. I'll gladly have a dance with you." Harry finished his own drink before heading to the dance floor with her.

     “     just when i've had one too many drinks to make me ballsy,   ” blonde chuckles. not one to drink too much, but tonight was an exception, she was celebrating.     “     so, are you going to take me out for a dance or what?   ”

"I'm just getting old and getting turned around. Or my amount of drinks I've had tonight." He couldn't decided which one was right. Harry laughed it off. He was just here to have some fun. "I suppose you're right about that. Real glad I ran into you then. You seem to have gotten a hold of the layout." Then an idea popped into his head. "I think it might be a good idea to keep you by my side. For a while, you probably have others you want to be with I'm sure."

polite  smile  lingers  on  petals  as  she  accepted  the  other's  words,  groomed  into  docility  as  child  but  hunger  for  more  changed  her  ⸺  chameleon  that  easily  switches  natures,  it  makes  violetta  so  good  at  her  job.  "  i  believe  it's  more  the  amount  of  people  and  the  costumes,  it  all  seems  so  familiar  —  no  point  of  recognition  to  draw  back  on,  "  she  suggests,  furthering  the  conversation  between  the  pair  with  light  tones.

"How many glasses have you had tonight that you already forgot?" He teased. He wasn't going to shame her. That's why they were here. For a good time. "No worries. That's why I am here. We were on our way to the next room. For some extra activities to bring this night up a notch. But if you want to duel, I think I could pull out that sword over there."

the homme's question hangs in the air as brown optics dart around the ballroom, taking in the lavish surroundings adorned with gilded mirrors and elaborate chandeliers. she takes a sip of her drink, casting a sidelong glance at her companion. 〝 oh, i'm almost sure we are, 〞 she drawls, her red lipstick accentuating the playful smirk on her face. 〝 though, i must confess, i don't remember what i agreed to. did i accidentally sign up for a duel, a dance or perhaps just a scandalous tête-à-tête in the gardens ? 〞

He laughed at her response. He wouldn't put it pass it them that were was some sort of room like that here. But that's not what he was going to. "No, no. Nothing like that." He took a sip of his glass of wine with his free hand. He took a hold of her hand as soon as she slipped into his. "But I can't say anything about some fun party favors later on. I might know I guy that is here." Harry lead them through the crowds. "What I was going to show was this room that some have moved to I heard it's more lively."

"Are you taking to me some kind of secret sex dungeon Harry, because I can promise you it won't go down well. Not unless you also have some nose dust tucked away too." Esmay replied skeptically, reaching out to grab hold of his hand as he moved towards the next room, conscious she might lose him in the crowed otherwise. "Then again it would still be better than this."

He appreciated the concern. "I know I might not look like I can party still, but I hold out a bit longer." He just needed another drink to keep him going. "I've been going to events like this for years. The French just do it a little different. How about you? What made you step out in the gardens?"

" You sure you're doing alright? "

Harry couldn't but over hear. "A moment of peace tonight? That might be hard to come by." Harry gave a glance over that massive amount of people here. "Are you doing alright? What has you so stress? We are in France. In a palace."

"Do you mind if I join you for a bit ?" Harry approached the other at the bar. "It's a bit crowded over. Needed to break away."

"Are you always this straightforward?" He let out a chuckle. "I like that."

"Thank you. You’ve been very helpful." He apricated the assistance. The palace was gigantic and navigating back to find the main room. "I didn't think I would get lost by just going to the next room."

" will you dance with me ?" He was being bold by asking. But what was the harm of it. They were in this massively public party, no one would question the pair partaking in a dance.

"Aren’t you forgetting something?" Harry eyed the tray of champagne flutes that they hadn't touched yet. "You got to have at least one drink tonight."

"Well you never know. Maybe there’s something amazing to discover just around the corner." He started to lead her to the next room to get this party started.

"We’re really going to do this aren’t we?" The night hadn't lived up to his expectations yet. He was up for anything tonight.

Harry had followed them for a moment into the next room. "What is it that you wanted to show me?" He was curious as to what he was going to see.

"Oh I know that look. You’re thinking aren’t you ?" Harry could tell by the other's expression that something was about to happen. And he wanted in.

With his third glass of wine in hand, he pondered. "Hmm, I supposed I could help you. What could go wrong tonight?" He took one more sip. "How can I help?"

"You must have me mixed up with somebody else. This isn't my usually choice of wardrobe" There was a large mix of people here. All of them in high end outfits that could easily mistaken one for another. "I'm Harry."

Traveling back across the pond was something Harry didn't do a lot in his later years. He seemed to enjoy America a bit more but if he was going to watch a football game, Harry would pick England over America every time. Harry thought over Ace's first question then glanced the the woman. "Wine. Red, please." He let out a breathy chuckle. He wasn't going to judge what Ace and his employees did but he wasn't the young lad he used to be. "She's lovely but wine is just fine." He gave her a quick wave for no hard feelings. "I'm not looking for anything at the moment."

it's not the first nor the last time the footballer decides to bring one of his friends along to a game overseas , only to be back by his private jet on the same night over . " beer or wine ? or maybe her with either one ? " the male asks , hues scanning the stewardess who isn't shy on returning the looks either .

Harry lifted his gaze from his phone. "No. Continue if you like. I was listening. We need to change a location, okay. We can work on that."

⸻⸻⸻ “ am i boring you? ”

In the streets of New York, Harry never knew who he was going to bump into. Most of the time it was fans who recognized him but if he was lucky he would find someone who he knew. He was taking a walk to get his cup of needed coffee. He stopped waiting for a light to change when a gentle bump on his back had him turn around. The biggest smile spread on his face when he saw Elena. Before saying anything, he glanced at the cover in question. "No question she paid the magazine off." He has always had her back. "Clearly you are on a different level they don't understand. But why do you care about one magazine, El? Thought you were above tabloids."

It had been years since Harry did any bidding for his father. After making a name of his own with his own movies, Harry and his father had different agendas. However with his father's health in question, this favor to meet Heidi for Harry Sr wasn't anything out of his way. "You were expecting my father, most likely." Harry walked into the office. "I'm here on his behalf." Harry took a seat. "I hope it's business. I don't want to know what my own father does for pleasure." He added a little lightheartedness. "He does apologize for not meeting in person, but he has been having some health concerns. Hope you understand."

“   if it isn't you, what a surprise,  ” heidi hums, failing to fully acknowledge the other. her speedy fingers type on her phone, setting it aside before it buzzes again. she lifts up from her chair, casting the other a short - lived smile. “ is it business or pleasure?  come on, darling, take a seat. ”

Harry waved over the man as soon as Rhys walked into the pub. The private section he was given had the perfect spot to watch the game. Harry frequent this particular pub often as it reminded him the most of ones back in England. "Over here." It had been a good while since he sat down with a pal to watch a football soccer game. He still refused to call it soccer even in America. Quickly ordering a round of beers, Harry greeted Rhys. "Glad you showed."

Rubbing his glove clad hand together, Harry tried to keep himself warm. As the year was coming to an end, the weather was getting colder. And a winter in New York could be harsh. Harry pulled his coat tighter around him making his way into Central Park. The park during this time of year was the best to visit. He heard the footsteps approaching next to him. "Not yet. Close." Harry laughed it off. New York weather was nothing compared to England winters. "But if we do want to continue the day out here, I need some coffee."

When Harry was asked to come by Key's house for some scary games, he didn't think it would have been this decked out. He enjoyed a video game from time to time so he wasn't going to pass up a session with the newest music role in his latest production. Harry made himself comfortable on the couch as Key explained his set up. "You didn't have to go to this length for a game." He reached for a piece of pizza. "I've been on many set of horror films, I don't scare easy." He rolled his eyes at the laugh. "So what are playing?" He looked over at the other man.

For ;; Open Location ;; Keys place

"I know these horror games aren't for everyone, so to maximize your comfort I brought out the expensive blankets. They're cashmere. Even cranked up the AC and put the fire on to make the atmosphere extra spooky and cozy. If you're gonna hide behind the blanket, you might as well be doing it in style." Plopping down on the couch next to his guest, after having set everything up to make sure they're both as comfortable as possible, he finally settles in. "The pizza is sitting on a warmer so you don't have to worry about it getting cold whenever you wanna dig in. Same with the popcorn. It's kettle but I've got salty and caramel because I forgot to ask which one you like. There's drinks. Both kinds. Help yourself to whatever suits and let me know if you need anything besides a diaper." Imitating the most cartoonish movie villian laugh he can manage, "mwahaha" is how he continues to tease as he presses play on the controller. The colors of the room shift with the gigantic screen attached to the wall in front of them when the game starts.
