Relaxing for Lunch (CeCe)

London. The place he had been raised. Although he was raised in an orphanage it hadn't been bad. If anything he was lucky. He was raised by someone who actually cared about the welfare of its charges. He and his brothers had been raised as if they were their own children.

On a run for some things he needed for his house he had stopped at a little shop and bought something to eat. Walking to Hyde Park where he had played as a kid he sat at one of the benches and opened his tray and started to much on a sandwich.

Chewing on his food he looked around and watched the people coming and going.

Cece woke up at about midday, simply because she was absolutely starving. And she must have food. Yawning, she got up, changed and hurried out of the house. Unfortunately, there was no food in the apartment. She didn't keep food in the apartment much. It was alright, she lived in central London and there were plenty of sandwich shops and restaurants dotted around the place. She liked food. And since she wasn't a brilliant chef, it was probably safest to just carry on eating out.

After grabbing a sandwich from the shop up the road, she wandered along the road down to Hyde Park. It was a warm day, what with it being the middle of summer, and she could see crowds of children and families everywhere she went. Nonetheless, she was making the most of the sunshine by going down to the park.

She was just walking and looking for somewhere to sit down when she tripped and felt her chin scrape against the pavement. Great. Nothing unusual, just her falling over again. But this time she was certain she hadn't tripped over her own feet but someone else's. Cece stood up and shot a glare at the man who was sitting on the bench. Maybe it had been her fault, but she'd long since given up apologising when she fell over.

After watching for a few minutes he closed his eyes. He felt relaxed now that had gotten some food in his system. He had started to doze off but that ended quickly. That peace went out the window when his leg was jarred by an impact. Eyes springing open he saw a woman falling to the ground.

He stood to help her but she got up fairly quick and glared at him. Some people just didn't watch where they were walking these days. "Sorry about that! Are you okay? Do you need any help?" he asked as he got up and walked over to her. She was bleeding slightly from a wound on her chin. "Hey you know your're bleeding?" he asked and pulled out a napkin and wiped her chin.

"I am sorry I really am. I had my eyes closed and well I didn't think anyone was going to walk over me" he said smiling. "Here let me make it up to you. Can I buy you a cup of coffee?" he asked hoping he could make up for making her trip; even if it had been all her fault.
