My first Love

Chapter Nine

"Sorry... I just..."
"Loïc, kiss me again. Please." I whispered.
Then he put his lips against mine again. It felt so good to feel his soft lips melt together with mine.

Now I finally know what this feeling in my stomach is. It is love. The first time that I felt love for someone and I never expected this to happen. I never really believed in true love, but now... I found it. I found it in Loïc Nottet, the boy who I once loved as a singer and dancer. And now I love him as a person. The real Loïc.
"I love you." Loïc said after our beautiful kiss. "I knew it since the first time our eyes met. I knew it. And now I know it more than I ever did before."
"I love you too, Loïc. You teached me in what real love is. And now I know that it's like coming home after a long trip. That is what real love feels like..." I smiled while he looked at me with his beautiful green/brown eyes.
"You'd like to show me Hamburg?" He asked.
"Yes of course!"
He took my hand and together we drove down to the hotel lobby and went outside.
First I wanted to show him the Alster. I went with him to the metro station to take the train. We sat down and smiled to each other the whole time.
"I never expected this to happen." Loïc mumbled.
"What?" I asked.
"That you feel the same as me." He whispered and gave me a little kiss on my cheek. I smiled and kissed him.
"Same Loïc. Yes, I never thought that this would happen. But it did happen and that's what counts in the end." I said smiling.
As we arrived the station we went upstairs.
"Wow."
"What's wow?" I asked.
"This all." He answered and seemed very impressed of what he saw. The Alster with it's boats on it and the people who sat in front of the Alster and also the restaurants around the place. I know this place since I am 4 years old, because since then I live in Hamburg. It's a place where I always go to when I need time for me or with friends in summer. To be honest I want to go here every day, but there's not always time for that.
But now it's beautiful to be here with the love of my life. There is nothing more beautiful than that.
"Let's take a walk around the Alster, Lo'. You'll never regret that, I promise." I said and then I took his hand.
"I fully trust in every word you say."

About two hours later we sat in a restaurant to eat something.
"Thank you for this perfect day at this beautiful place. I love you, Alina."
"I love you, too."
We took our sparkling wine and clinked out glasses.
A little bit later we got our meal and ate them.
The rest of the day we sat in front of the Alster until it was dark and went back to the hotel.
"Would you like to stay here for this night?" Loïc asked and looked at me with his sparkling eyes.
"Oh I can't say no to you. Of course I will stay, I just call my parents."
I lied to them and said that I am at Lisa's house, but I didn't feel bad about that. I just couldn't, because for Loïc I would do everything.
