I'm standing on the outer balcony looking down at the ocean with a glass of wine, William is down stairs washing up, He cooked me a delicious meal.
Looking at this view makes me home sick and longing for that comfort of endless nature, wrapping my arms around my self I sigh to myself
"Anna? Is something wrong?"
"No, it just reminds me of home" I whisper softly to him
He puts his large warm hands on my shoulders and rubs them slowly
"Tell me about your home some day"
I simply nod
"Come Anna I wish to show you something"
I turn around to follow him but he stands still, I look up at him as he analyses my face
"Anna" he whispers as he lifts his hand to touch my cheek
"Yes William"
He leans down and softly pecks my lips
"So soft" he mutters
He kisses me again slowly as he holds me tightly to him, the kiss gets deeper and deeper until I pull away needing air
"We better stop"
I didn't want him to, some how his touch makes me feel complete and I want more
"Anna, tell me to stop"
I couldn't open my mouth, fearful of what I might say so I simply shake my head
"Anna" he says sounding more like a growl
He kisses me again only this time more dominantly, he breaks the kiss and rests his forehead against mine while we both pant for air
"Come" he mumbles and grabs my hand
He takes me upstairs and to a long winding staircase that I think leads to the roof.
Once we reach the top he opens the door and guides me through, I look around and see candles lit everywhere surrounding a 2 seater couch, he takes me to it and we sit down.
He wraps his arm around my shoulders and tells me to look up, I look up and frown, I turn to him with a puzzled look
"It's a ceiling Will"
He turns slightly and pushes a button
"Now look"
I do as he says and look up, I gasp as the roof opens revealing bright shinning stars
"Oh William its beautiful"
He sits there with me in his arms as we gaze at the night sky, I turn to him and look deeply into his eyes
"William I can't believe how many times I have said beautiful today, you have made me so happy and I can't thank you enough, how could I ever repay you"
He takes my face in his hands and kisses me tenderly
"Anna I would do it all over again and everyday for the rest of your life if I could, seeing you smile and laugh brings out things in me I have never felt before and I'm not afraid. You made me the happiest man in the world when you said you'd be mine. So thank you"
A tear escapes my eyes and he gently wipes them away
I wrap my arms around his neck and hug him closely whispering another thank you

I wake up feeling fresh after the best sleep of my life, I look around and notice I'm still in Williams arms, we must of fell asleep here
"We did" a Husky voice whispers
"Good morning beautiful"
I blush
"Morning"
"We're leaving today"
"Yes we are, we'll be busy for the next few months"
"I don't want to go" he whines
"Well to bad Mr CEO you have a BIG yacht to build, so chop chop up we go and I'll make breakfast"
I say as I attempt to get up but his big arm is blocking me, he rolls on top of me and pecks my lips
"Who made you boss huh?"
"I'm not sure but I think I like it" I giggle
"I like you" he whispers
"I like you too.. but we have to go"
He growls at me with a smirk, out of no where he starts tickling me
"N..no Wi.. Will pl..please st..stop I can't.. I can't take anymore pl..please" I stutter
"What will you give me?"
"Ki..kisses" I say while still laughing
"Whenever I want" he negotiates
"Ye..yes"
"Promise me" he growls again
"I promise" I whisper as his tickling slows
"Louder!"
"I promise!"
"To do what?"
"Will...." I moan and pout
"Okay fine, it's a deal"
He stops tickling me and just stares down
"I am waiting for my kiss woman" he states
I caress his face gently as I reach upwards and slowly make it so we're inches apart. I slowly inch in and give him a quick peck before returning to my previous position and burst out laughing. I hear him growl at me and starts to tickling me again
"I'm... I'm sorry I'll do it properly I swear"
He stops and I take a breath, I touch his face again this time bringing him to me and give him the most passionate kiss I could ever come up with. We we're interrupted shortly after by his phone ringing.
"I better take this"
After a minute or so he turns around with a grim look on his face
"We have to go back to New York now! It's your brother" he whispers the last part.
