~ Chapter 16: Paris. ~
(Hey again guys! So this is why I had a tiny chapter before, it's just because they changed location so I felt like it was two parts of the bucket list that should be seperated. Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy this chapter too, for those of you who read Just Another Love Story, it may remind you of some things haha I guess I have the same kind of things for Damon and Leah to do as Alyson and Nathan. Anyway, as usual, good reading and please don't forget to vote and comment! <3)

Today, it was time to go. We were a little sad to have to leave Hawaii but also really excited because we were heading to... Paris! Damon absolutely wanted to go there before... you know, before it would be too late so we had bought the plane tickets and booked a room in a hotel from Hawaii and we would go there. We had to make some stops on the way but it didn't really matter. Together, we were never bored. Even if we had nothing to do, we could still kiss. Man, I was so in love with Damon!
I realized Seth and Jenny were going to say "I told you so!" but I didn't mind hearing it for once because they had been right. I had had a crush on Damon for as long as I could remember and I just hadn't wanted to admit it because I didn't want to jeopardize our friendship. I knew being in love with him was dangerous and that, in the end, I would only get hurt, but that's how every love story ends, right?
We had packed our things and the cab was already there to take us to the airport. We didn't travel first class this time but we didn't really care. The journey was awfully long but it was worth it. When we arrived to Paris, it was a little cold so we had to buy coats. It didn't bother me cause I got a pretty beautiful one.
We were exhausted from the trip so we went to the hotel (which was really beautiful by the way) and checked Go to Paris off the list before falling asleep.
When we woke up, it was night already. But we still grabbed our coats and decided to go see Paris by night. And man, let me tell you, it was wonderful! Lights everywhere, the bridges, the architecture... I was blown away. Neither of us had been to Paris before so we were both amazed and looking all around. Paris... The city of love. It was perfect.
We walked around the city, ended up in the Champs Elysées, which was even more beautiful and stopped in a restaurant to get something to eat. Then we sat on a bench, a little tired from all the walk.
"Damon... We're in Paris." I said.
I couldn't believe it.
"I know, it's unbelievable. And I'm so glad to be there with you."
"Me too."
We kissed for a long time then got up and went back to the hotel to get some rest so that we'd be able to enjoy the next day to the fullest. We had a lot of things to do!
When we woke up the next day, Damon took out the list and we decided to first go to the Louvre. You cannot go to Paris without visiting this museum. Even though I'm not found of visiting museums, I was really excited to go the Louvre. Maybe because it was Paris. I don't know. So we went there, took a tour of the museum, saw the Mona Lisa of course, and the Venus de Milo, then we went out, took some pictures in front off the famous Pyramids and went in a restaurant to eat lunch. Damon ticked See the Joconde in the Louvre off the list and I took a look at it to decide what we would do next.
