Once harry left, I slowly walked around the room absorbing every little detail that I could.

The huge bed was coated with luxurious sheets, the window held an extravagant view of the city and the water channels that traveled through it, the chandelier hanging from above looked like it was made from pure crystal. Everything in here was just beautiful.

I was so tempted to just flop on the bed, but I knew that if I took a seat or laid down on it I would pass out because the plane ride had been tiring.

I grabbed my suitcase and placed it on top of the bed before unzipping it. I looked through my stuff and found a cute lavender dress that was mid thigh. I laid the dress beside the suitcase, and continuing rummaging for a nice pair of nude open toe heels and a gold clutch to compliment the outfit.

Once I finished that, I walked into the bathroom, which also was extravagant might I add. I ran myself a hot bath and filled it up with bubbles before I peeled my clothes off and tossed them aside.

I sunk down into the warm water, letting it soothe my muscles, and sat there for the next hour with my phone.

With a towel wrapped around me, I first worked on my makeup. Nothing too extreme, just your usual neutral eye with a pale pink lipstick. I kept my hair simple by creating soft curls.

By the time I got my dress and shoes on, I had about twenty minutes left. I walked back into the bathroom, checking to make sure my hair and makeup looked fine. I smoothed out the dress as I grabbed my clutch from the bed. I placed my phone, lipstick, money, and hotel card into it, before making my way down to the front entrance.

The bridge I was supposed to meet Harry at ran across a small water channel. All sorts of stones added up to make the beautiful design of the bridge.

I began my walk towards it, which wasn't so bad. The weather got a bit chiller than before because the sun had gone down, and night took over.It was quiet out, aside from the constant clicking my heels made against the floor.

I turned the corner, and my face immediately lit up when I saw Harry standing on the middle of the bridge with his hands behind his back. He had on a black suit with a fancy white button down shirt underneath. As soon as he saw me, he smiled wide and winked.

"Hi," I smiled as I walked right up to him.

He placed his hands of the small of my back and pulled me into him, "Hey, beautiful."

I wrapped one arm around his neck and placed my other hand on the side of his face, pulling him in for a tender kiss.

I lightly caressed the side of his jaw with my thumb, "You look handsome, what's the occasion?" I questioned.

"You," Harry said as he quickly stole a kiss, "are in for a treat."

I looked at him questioningly, as he began to chuckle.

"Come on," He said as he took my hand in his.

We crossed the remainder of the bridge and headed down a block before we saw another bridge. There was a little staircase beside it that led us down by the water. My jaw dropped when I saw what was there waiting for us.

A gondola.

Harry smirked at my awe struck reaction. When did he plan all this?!

He stepped into the gondola first and turned to face me as he held out his hand. I was a bit hesitant to get in it considering how much it rocked when Harry got on.

He sensed my discomfort and laughed, "You won't fall, don't worry."

"If I'm gonna falling, I'm taking you with me," I warned.
