This Love is Ours

Shake It Off

'All aboard!' our tour guide exclaimed to the group. 'Rest up, we will be arriving in Rome, Italy in about seven hours'

'Au revoir Paris.' I say, kissing Hunter's cheek, pulling down my ball cap and hiding my eyes behind some sunglasses. I lay my head on Hunter's shoulder to get comfy for the train ride ahead when I heard a scoff from one of the other group members.

I sit back up, catching Hunter's attention, 'Everything okay?'  I ask her.

'Delightful.' She says with tone.

I cuddled back up to Hunter, he kissed my head and a dozed off.

I woke in a blur to Hunter gently shaking me awake. 'I would say you slept well my dear."

I nodded, 'Yeah it was magical' I sat up to fix my hair. 'Did you sleep at all?'

'Not really. That girl that scoffed at you - she waited 'til you were asleep to make a few comments.'

'Oh?' I said, 'What would she have to say? I didn't do anything.'

'No I know babe. I know she knows who were are, but I think she's..'

'Rude.' I finish his sentence.

'Your words not mine,' he says getting up to retrieve our overhead luggage. Hunter said she made a few jabs at my "lack of talent", and marrying Hunter for fame.

We connect our train ride with a shuttle bus to the hotel, passing the Coliseum, the ruins and a ton of cute shops. 'Maybe we should go shopping tonight babe' Hunter said.

'Really? You don't love shopping...' I trailed off, 'but I'll take you up on it!'
