The evening of sightseeing didn't go as planned. Both Kiera and Simon enjoyed their room service around four in the evening, looking like a teenage couple as they ate their food on the bed while they watched television, then changing into something more comfortable while they put on a movie to pass away the time until Kiera had fallen asleep on the ridiculously comfortable bed, even slightly snoring a few times to satisfy Simon's reason to laugh.
Once eight o'clock rolled around, Kiera's eyes fluttered open to slowly focus on the view of the Eifel Tower from their room's window. For a moment, she wondered how she got there and if it were a dream, draping her elbow over her eyes before she slowly sat up, seeing an empty space next to her. "Simon?"
"I'm over here, love," He responded from the balcony, the sliding glass door still slid open while a short glass of bourbon pinched between his thumb and index finger. "Rest well?"
"I did," She hummed. "How long have you been up?"
"Around an hour. I just got off the phone with your mum to check on the kids. She told me that Evie is starting to babble more and thinks she might talk soon."
"Really?!"
"Sure is. I hope her first word is dad." He poked.
"Of course you do," She giggled. "Where'd you get bourbon from?"
"Complementary with the room, love. I like this town already."
She smiled as she joined her husband on the balcony, taking a seat next to him on the bench and crossing her legs while his free arm snaked around her shoulders while her head slowly lulled to lay on his shoulder, enjoying his warmth. "When do you want to go out?"
"Whenever you want to," He chuckled, turning his head to place a kiss against her hairline before taking the last sip of his bourbon, setting the now empty glass on the side table. "What did you have in mind?"
"Well, I was going to sneak out and go gallivanting on my own while I raise your blood pressure while in search of me and then enjoy my punishment once you did find me." She teased, smiling at the glare Simon shot at her.
"I'd prefer you not."
"Why not?"
"Love, a woman like you doesn't go unnoticed. I'd prefer you to not be alone in a city like this."
"Wouldn't it be fun, though? To play a friendly little game of hide n' seek?"
"Not in this place," He scoffed. "That's just trouble waiting to happen, love."
"I'm just playin', babe."
"I know. You can't hold a straight face when you're toying with me."
