Aluna POV.

After our long embrace I pulled away gazing at him,
I watched as his gaze slowly went to my lips,
I knew exactly what he was thinking because I was definitely thinking the same thing,
I have never gotten our last kiss out of my head because I kept reliving it in my dreams every night.


"Excuse me miss is this yours?"
A guy asked walking towards us with my flowers in his hands.

"Oh yes thank you."
I said taking the flowers then turning back to Ryan with an awkward look on my face because the moment was now ruined by my forgetfulness.

"The view is beautiful isn't it,"
I said looking at the ocean as the moonlight began to shine on the water.

"Yes it is but wait a minute."
"Is that the hotel I'm staying in?"
Ryan asked not realizing the hotel was straight across from where we were.

"Yep."

"Wow this place is really small, but then again it's nice getting around not having to drive anywhere,
You like it living here don't you?"
He asked.

"Yes,"
I said taking a deep breath.

"Don't you feel alone without family and friends?"
He asked.

"Kind off, but I keep myself occupied."
"Sometimes when I'm done working in the cafe and training the kids at the gym.
"And I get back home and lay in my bed I do feel a big empty whole, I feel something missing,"
"but it not family or friends because I had none off that when I used to live in Paris."
I said looking at him.

"Probably you're missing Theo!"
He said bursting out in laughter as I punched him on the shoulder.

"You got yourself a hard punch there, when are you gonna put on those gloves and show me your skills?"
He asked while playfully shadow boxing around me.

"That won't be anytime soon because I'm gonna be busy tonight and tomorrow."
"I may not have any decent sleep until tomorrow night."
I said taking a deep breath.

"Why did you say yes to Dario, when you know it's a lot of work?"
He ask.

"Probably because I'm a good person and I can't say no to people,"
I said making him laugh.

"Well since you can't say no then would you accompany me to the Dario's party tomorrow night as my date?"
He asked raising an eyebrow.

"He also invited you to the party?"

"Yeah right before I came here,"
He said bitting my bottom lip nervously waiting for me to answer.

"I'll have to think about it."
I said teasing him.

"What?
"you're not into boxers anymore?"
"You like boring business men who owns hotels?"
He asks teasing me back.

"Nah I'm more into bad boys, I like a guy to keep me on my toes,"
"I'm a girl who gets bored easily."
I said winking at him.

"Yeah you sure know how to keep a guy on his toes also."
"You basically had me chasing around this place for the past two days."
He said raising an eyebrow.

"Well I better get going,"
"I have to start preparing my stuff for tomorrow,"
"You could follow this road and it will lead you straight to the hotel."
I said grabbing my flowers looking at him smiling.

"And you are going to walk home alone in the dark?
Let me accompany you?"
He ask.

"Ryan,"
"I basically know everyone here and I know this place very well, I'm safer than you think."
"But you in the other hand have gotten lost how many time now?"

"Just once, I only got lost once."
He said rolling his eyes taking a step towards me.

"Good night Aluna."
He said wrapping his arms around me.

"Good night Ryan,"
I said burying my head into his chest.
God he smells heavenly.

"See you tomorrow night, I'll meet you on the Yacht because I have to be there a little earlier to make sure to food is set ready."
I said taking a step back.

"So does that mean you're saying yes to going to the party with me?"
He ask.

"Good night Ryan."
"And please follow this road don't stray away or else you would find yourself in the local brothel."
I said pointing at the path to the hotel.

"Then I shall stray,"
He said making me give him a nasty look.

"If you stray then I'm not accompanying you to the party tomorrow."
I said rolling my eyes at him.

"Are you jealous Aluna?"
He said as a smile creep upon his face.

"Good night Ryan."
I said chuckling turning around walking away,

"God you look hot walking away in that crop top and skirt."
He shouted as I tried to contain my laughter,
this boy is going to be the end off me.
