A Lie In Church

08 | I'll Be Better

Winter POV.

The event went well so after that my parent and his parents wants to give us something.

The guest are leaving and Lucien went to our home first. He got tired and want to rest.

They invite us to a room in the hotel. They sited and us too. Out of curiosity, I was about to open my mouth to say a word.

"So, we decided that we will give you a house of your own and we organize your honeymoon in Los Angeles". My mom started while the rest of them smile. Are they serious? As if Cloud wants to be with me, alone.

"Okay, if that what you want". He coldly response. So I was a bit shocked and I'm not ready to get laid. I am about to cry huhu.

They give us our passport and our belongings. So, it is planned afterall. And our flight is tonight. Come on, give me a break!

He accept and he carry our luggage. My mom and dad hug me and wish me well.

"I am hoping for a grandchild, hmm". I almost fainted. This is getting out of hand. They smirk and I rolled my eyes. As if!

We got to his car and I help him settle our luggage. I still can't believe how he accepted this trip, I know he can't stand seeing me around.

I opened the passenger seat, as if he will open it for me. He got in first so I rolled my eyes, jerk!

Awkward atmosphere I feel right now. He staft the engines while I scroll on my phone, updating and posting our photos as if our thing is real.

I told the girls that we are going to Los Angeles for honeymoon and as usual they tease me nonstop.

The silence broke when he spoke.

"I know I been to harsh on you since we were kids and I am about to change that". My heart skip a beat. I can hear my heart pounding and pounding and the surroundings are blurry.

"I'll be better but I need to work on that. This is too much to me but I'm start from being nice to you, sounds nice?".

"I know you're doing this because you're feeling guilty or sorry for me. If all of this is fake, stop it you'll make the situation worst". I look outside and appreciate the beauty of seoul.

If he is faking it, and my delulu self will fall for sure. Why can he easily destroy the wall I built, how can his small nice actions affect me so much?

"No, you're not the only one stuck with this situation, I'm just returning the favor. All I can do is to be nice to you and not give you any problem. And we have a deal, no falling inlove and for you no falling inlove harder. I know the feelings that you keep all these years". I hummed as a response. It may seems force but I can settle with that.

As I think of what he says, my eyes closed and I yawn. I'm sleepy.

"You can rest, I'll wake you up when we get there". He says and I nodded, mouthed 'thankyou" even though he can't see it.

I closed my eyes but my mind is awake. I shooed all the thoughts away and go to sleep.

_____________________

Small shrugged interrupt my sleep. Cloud wake me and I yawn. We arrive at the airport. I compose myself and get out of the car to help Cloud, carry our things.

"You look tired, you should rest when we take off". I concernly said. It's not fake, caring with other people is common to me. No malice.

"I definitely would, being married is tough, the event is so tiring". He says and we get inside for inspection.

"Yeah, it must be tiring for you because it was a force marriage". I wishpered but he hear it anyway.

"Please let it keep it for our self. We can't do anything about it. Let just enjoy this, it once in a lifetime experience. And you would regret not enjoying when the annulment come". I rolled my eyes, ugh he's getting on my nerves.

We sat down while waiting for our flight. How cheap of them, how come they didn't send a helicopter, are the helicopters just a display? Ugh

Finally, our flight has been called and we go to the plane, finally.

At least they booked, first class. Not mad.

My phone notify and I read it,

Lucien

Have a safe flight sis, and of course, enjoy the honeymoon instant vacay😉

Winter

Yes, I will. And please save me with that teasing face of yours, annoying.

I shut down my phone and take a seat. I grab my blanket and play some music. It was nice, it was like a bedroom with wall so that they can't disturb you, but I am stuck with Cloud. He is beside me.

"Don't blame me for this, this is not my idea. They set this up, and I can't argue with that. Keep your paws out of my territory". I gasped like I was offended.

"What am I? A cat?" I angrily said and he chuckled and then I was mesmirized, idiot.

"A sneaky one". He wink and I almost collapse. Argh I hate him. Arrogant, selfish and annoying but hot, handsome, cute. No no no, erase erase he's not handsome duh.

I lay and dozzed off, ignoring him teasing me for shutting my mouth with his little trick that I am sure that I will not fall for his trap. Ugh, as if his trying to make me fall inlove when he can do it effortlessly, take note, he's just being nice and nothing else.

As I argue with myself I shifted and look at him. He is sleeping innocently. His hair, he look hot when his hair is messy, then those thick eyebrows damn! And his lips, I want to touch them.

"Just take a picture". He smirk and I turn red. Idiotic self, not again!!!
