tu parle français?! | jerry baynard

request by @Maisuliini - love this the most
a/n - translation of french will be in italics. i just used translation so if the french is incorrect then i'm super sorry!!

winter in avonlea is no laughing matter. the snow is a foot high, the wind is blowing at a hundred miles an hour, and the clouds cover the sun all the time.

normally y/n enjoys winter, with its white flurries and beautiful snowflakes, but this year she'd had enough.

y/n trudged through the snow in her brother's hunting boots (made to keep out the dirt and snow), with her coat and scarf bundled around her. her hat was on tight, and she could barely see two feet in front of her.

y/n was on her way to have a tea party with her best friend anne shirley-cuthbert. anne lived in green gables, which is about a fifteen minute walk from y/n's house. nevertheless, it was still a very cold fifteen minutes.

as y/n approached the white picket fence of the cuthbert residence, she saw through the snow the cuthbert's farmhand, jerry baynard. she'd never met him; she'd only heard anne talk about him.

y/n opened the fence gate and started her path up to the front door. she was just walking past the barn when she heard a voice.

"bonjour," the voice said. hello. y/n smiled and turned towards the voice. it came from jerry.

"bonjour à vous aussi," y/n replied. hello to you too. the boy's eyes widened. y/n was instantly captured by his dark brown eyes. they were somehow comforting to her, even though they'd never met.

"vous comprenez le français?" jerry asked in awe. you understand french? y/n nodded.

"oui," y/n said with a smile. yes.

jerry stepped out of the barn and made his way over to her. he was tall, and may y/n add, quite handsome. jerry gently took her gloved hand and kissed it. y/n blushed, but you couldn't tell because of the cold air.

"vous êtes belle," jerry whispered. you are beautiful. y/n smiled at the compliment. no one ever called her beautiful (besides her mother of course).

"je vous remercie," y/n replied with a curtsy. thank you. jerry was still holding her hand, and he laughed as she tried to curtsy.

"tu es drôle aussi," jerry added. you are funny too. y/n rolled her eyes, but smiled right after. just as she was about to make some witty remark, a light voice echoed from the house.

"oh, my dear y/n, you're here!" it was anne, and she was running towards you and jerry. jerry quickly let go of your hand, and you took a couple steps back from him to make it look not as awkward. when anne arrived, she threw her arms around y/n.

"y/n, it feels like i haven't seen you in forever! oh, you look so lovely but it is ever so cold! i do wish i came out here with a coat on, but alas—" anne went into a whole speech about how cold she is, and somehow the topic changed to gilbert blythe. jerry raised an eyebrow and looked at y/n.

"elle n'arrête jamais de parler," jerry said to y/n. she never stops talking. y/n laughed. anne was her best friend, but it was true.

"je suis d'accord," y/n replied. i agree. anne stopped talking and stared at the two french speakers.

"y/n, you never told me you know french! how romantic it would be to know french! i've been wanting to learn, but jerry won't teach me, and i'm already learning so much in school! i have to keep up so i can beat gilbert...he can't win!" anne exclaimed, somehow the topic changing to gilbert again.

"elle aime vraiment gilbert," y/n said, nudging closer to jerry for shelter against the wind. she really likes gilbert. he chuckled and shook his head.

"oui, je crois bien," jerry responded, stepping closer to y/n as they talked. yes, i believe so.

"y/n, let's go inside. i'm craving some tea, and it's awfully cold outside!" anne said with gusto. she grabbed y/n's hand and started pulling her towards the house.

"on se parle bientôt!" y/n called back to jerry, who stood alone, watching the new girl of his dreams walking inside. let's talk soon!

"oui! aurevoir beauté!" jerry waved. yes! goodbye, beautiful! y/n blushed and waved back right as she was walking through the door.

"au revoir!" she replied. goodbye! and with that, the door was shut in between the two lovebirds.
