Vaulted ceilings mixed with the classic Parisian art and the high windows overlooking the marble Orangerie to set the atmosphere of the Le George Mediterranean restaurant right outside of the lobby of the hotel. Everyone was exhausted after last night, so they had gotten a late start to their day, opting to catch brunch before an afternoon of events. Fashion Week was coming to a close and soon they would all be heading home, so they were trying to relax since it was one of their last days. Well, Demi and Muse would be heading home. After last night, Demi wasn't too sure about Cristo.

Muse was thrown into a giggling fit as Cristo held up a small piece of a baguette and said the name of it in French. Demi was all for Cristo teaching Muse French but right now, all it did was cause Muse to giggle at how it sounded because Cristo was one of the only people who spoke French to her. Clara and Nicholas did but they weren't around that often. Demi thanked God that she was wearing her new Chanel sunglasses because she didn't want anyone to see her getting misty eyed. Cristo was an amazing father, he really was, but she just wished he was around a little bit more. Maybe that was her being selfish, especially on the heels of their last fight, but this entire summer it had felt like Cristo was a weekend dad. And watching the way that Muse and Cristo interacted with each other made Demi want to stay here and be with him, but she was under contractual obligation. She had to get this album started. Money wasn't a problem but if she didn't have to pay a fine, she didn't want to pay one.

"Cristo, are you happy about the reviews of the shows?" Kris asked as Muse climbed back over to Demi's lap, reaching for her orange juice. Demi grabbed the cup from her and let her take a few sips so that she wouldn't get her outfit dirty. Cristo had dressed her in a gray sweater over one of her favorite pink dresses since it was a little chilly outside, and Demi had braided the front of her hair back because having her hair in her face irritated her.

"Definitely. It went a lot better than I expected and it feels good to know that all of my hard work has paid off," Cristo said, leaning back in his chair and wrapping his arm around Demi. She didn't shrug him off because she didn't want to cause a scene, so she just leaned back a little more and broke a croissant in half for Muse to munch on.

"So, are you done in Paris? Because I really miss your pain au chocolate. Demi and I have tried and failed to make it," Kendall chuckled as Cristo shrugged a little bit, causing Demi to silently roll her eyes.

"I think I have a few loose ends to tie up around here and then I'll be done," Cristo said but Demi wasn't paying attention to him. She watched as Taylor entered the restaurant and made a beeline for their table, dressed in a simple pink sundress with white heels. Her hair was in a straight, asymmetrical bob and the color of the dress really brought out the bronzey tone of her skin.

"Hi, I'm sorry to interrupt your brunch," she greeted as she made it over to Cristo then knelt down to whisper something in his ear. Cristo nodded and leaned over to kiss Muse's cheek, then kissed Demi's as well before he stood up.
