The Stranger on the Train

Chapter 96: London

Pov y/n

London is a very beautiful city and I am very glad that Scarlett made it possible for me to see.

London is also very rainy. After we arrived, we took a cap to our hotel and the suit was really amazing. I've never been in such a huge hotel room or suit. Scarlett was more impressed by the view which was also incredible.
We have a great view of the Thames.

Rose was most excited by the beds because she has her own double bed and excitedly started bouncing on it. We told her to please not do it because they are not our beds and we don't want to break them. Rose pouted a little but found a new occupation: doing somersaults on the bed.
That we let her do until she got dizzy and just laid there like a starfish while Scarlett and I unpacked our bags.

I grabbed Mr. Mouve and settled down next to Rose, holding Mr. Mouve above her and wiggling him a little before putting him on her face. She giggled at that and grabbed him, telling me how he protected the plane from falling from the sky last night.

I felt my face heating up a little at the thought of last night but luckily, Rose was too occupied to notice.
It was more than amazing but I had to admit, that I was a little bit sore, which made walking a little uncomfortable.
I let Rose to herself and stood next to Scarlett who looked over the city again.

Her hand sneaked around my waist before her hand moved down until it was in my back pocket. I leant against her and enjoyed the view.
Since it was clouded with rain, we decided to wait until it wasn't pouring anymore.

So, we sat down at the dinning table, this suit is bigger than my apartment (!), and made a plan for the next upcoming days until Scarlett had to start filming. We made a list with all the sights we wanted to visit and after a while, Rose joined us and sat on my lap, planning with us.

The rain didn't stop and even though we slept on the plane, more or less, we were a little exhausted from traveling and the different time zones.
So, we decided to keep it calm and snuggled up in one of the double beds, I leant against the headboard with Rose by my side and we continued to read Harry Potter.

Scarlett listened as well but started acting out what we were reading after a while and that was it with Rose wanting to read herself, she rather listened to me and watch her mom being silly.

I laughed when Scarlett acted out the chess scene at the end of the book and I could tell she definitely watched the movies.
Scarlett's acting talent definitely came in handy for this, even though it was more being goofy but still.

Rose joined her then and they both acted out what I was reading and it was the most adorable thing ever.
They had so much fun, that Rose didn't want to stop and we finished the book, time forgotten.

She was pumped and when we told her there are six more books, her eyes grew and she begged us to buy them.
I looked to Scarlett because this is her call. The books get more and more scary as they go on and I don't really know how Rose is with these kinds of things, if they give her nightmares.

Scarlett thought about it a little while, Rose just looking at her with puppy dog eyes. She agreed but said we will buy one book at a time, especially since we are not at home right now.
Rose cheered and literally jumped onto me, telling me we can continue this. I huffed when her body pressed onto mine but cheered with her.

Since we were all hungry at that point and Rose couldn't sit still because she wanted the second book, we got ready and stepped outside.
The rain wasn't so heavy anymore and the sky cleared up a bit.
Still, Rose looked adorable with her rubber boots and jacket.

She grabbed one of our hands each, worried to get lost and Scarlett lead us to a restaurant close buy.
It wasn't too full, so we didn't need a reservation. The food was really good and Rose praised the spaghetti she had there.
Scarlett and I agreed on her paying for the food and me paying for the drinks.
