New Love Renewed Love

Chapter 16

REEFSIDE AIRPORT – THE FOLLOWING DAY

Kira is pacing the departure lounge at Reefside Airport, while Conner is sat there, trying to stop her from wearing a hole in the floor.

"Kira, will you please sit down?" he asks

"Conner, we've finally done it!" she replies, Conner stands up and sweeps her up in his arms.

"Mrs McKnight, will you sit down!" he commands, Kira looks up into his eyes and notices the love he feels for her.

"Ok, if I have to!" she replies, they look at an older couple who smile back at them

"Sorry about that, it's our honeymoon!" he says to them

"Oh congratulations!" says the elderly lady

"Thank you!" reply Conner and Kira together

"Flight 738 to Paris – Now boarding at Gate 17" remarked a voice over the intercom

"That's us!" said Conner, lifting himself and Kira to their feet

"Paris? We're going to Paris?" wondered Kira, eyes widening.

"I heard it's a romantic city!" joked Conner as they approached the boarding gate, as they show their boarding passes, Kira believes they're sitting in second class, until Conner shows her to first class.

"But Conner, we can't!"

"My mom's present is two first class tickets to Paris!"

"Where was you thinking of?"

"Somewhere like Beijing!"

"Let's thank your mom when we get back!" she giggled

"Yeah!" replied Conner, also giggling as they both sat down, Kira sat by the window looking down to the tarmac "You always did like flying didn't you?" he laughed

"Yeah, it was always fun!" she replied

"Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your Captain speaking, we shall soon be underway to Paris, if you could please fasten your seatbelts for takeoff, thank you!" came the Captain's voice over the intercom. Everyone fastens their seatbelts, and as the plane prepares to take off, everyone who is sat behind Conner and Kira can see how much they love each other

"Just think, our first holiday as man and wife!" he grins, Kira just laughs, as they reach a safe height, they unbuckle their seatbelts, and Conner buzzes for a stewardess, as they cuddle closer, the stewardess arrives.

"May I help you?" she wonders

"Erm yes, can we have two glasses of champagne and a blanket please?" replies the ex-red dino thunder ranger.

"Special Occasion?" she guessed

"Definitely" replies Kira

"A very special occasion" replied a grinning Conner; the stewardess walks off to do what was asked, as Kira cuddles closer into the loving embrace of her husband, the stewardess returns with the items Conner had requested.

"Awwwwwwwwwwwww, were you two married recently?" she asks

"Yesterday!" they both reply in unison.

"Well, I hope you really enjoy the flight!"

DE GAULLE AIRPORT – HOURS LATER
As the passengers are coming off the plane, Conner is holding Kira's hand, as they get their bags, they head out of the airport, when Conner notices a familiar face stood outside.

"Kira, I think my mom sorted out other things besides the flight!"

"What do you mean?" she asks

"Look over there!" he replies, pointing to a guy holding a placard saying Monsieur et Mademoiselle McKnight.

"Come on then!" she replied, as they make their way to him, they notice a car right behind him.

"Monsieur et Mademoiselle McKnight?" asks the Frenchman

"Oui, do you speak English?" replies Kira, slowly

"Yes, my name is Jacques, I am your driver!" replies Jacques

"I'm Conner, and this lovely lady is Kira!" responds Conner extending his hand

"It is a pleasure to meet you both, I am to drive you to your hotel, and anywhere in Paris you may wish to visit!"

"Who hired you?"

"A Mrs S. McKnight!"

"Your mom!" responds a shocked Kira

"Where would you like to visit first?" wonders Jacques

"Could you take us to our hotel!" replies Conner, walking out of the airport, towards a beautiful black limousine, opening it, Kira and Conner get in and are presented with an open-chilled bottle of champagne, Conner takes out the bottle, and two glasses and, filling them both, he hands one to Kira, "Here's to us!"

"To us, Mr McKnight!" replied Kira, slowly taking a sip and kissing her beloved husband.

"Your mother asked us to put the best champagne in here for you both!" Conner picks up the champagne, and looks at it.

"Don Perignon 1961?" asked Conner

"Only the best for us I guess!" grinned Kira

"My mom really loves us!"

"So what did your mom want yesterday?"

"She's divorcing my dad!"

"What? Oh Conner I'm..."

"Don't you dare say you're so sorry... I'm glad she is!"

"Why?"

"How about the fact that he upset you and me at our wedding!"

"Good point!" grinned Kira, as Conner moved in to kiss her.

THEIR HOTEL – 20-MINUTES-LATER
Conner and Kira are being helped out of their limo, they walk into the hotel and up to the check-in desk.

"Oui monsieur?"

"I have a reservation, name of McKnight!" replies Conner

"Oh yes, you're in the honeymoon suite!" replies the check-in girl "Pierre will take your bags!" she continues, giving the bellboy the key to Conner and Kira's room
