Becoming

Chapter 30

After hours and hours of being on air we land and it takes me a few moments to realise that I'm really in Paris. I notice "Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport" written all over and people around us speaking English or French. Yep, we are definitely in France. "Babe are you okay?" Greg chuckles looking at me. "You still have a lot to tell me" I laugh.

I wake up and smile as I look at Greg who is still peacefully sleeping. We arrived at the hotel in the early hours of the morning. I am still jet lagged and when I look at the clock on the side of this bed it's 11:50 am. "Damn" I stretch.

"No, come back" Greg pulls me to him and I try to get out of his hold. "Babe, we are in my favourite place in the world and we are not going to spend time sleeping in bed" I look at him. "Okay okay, but give me a kiss" he nuzzles into my neck and it's not long till we hear a sound from the small intercom on the wall.

Greg stands up and presses the green button. "Service de chamber" the voice says and I continue staring at Greg. "Merci, je viens" he responds. I have to say I'm impressed that my man is fluent in French. He surprises me everyday.

Once he comes back he tells me that he requested for room service to be delivered at this time. "We have to get ready. There's so much to do" he says putting a handful of grapes in his mouth. "I love you" I smile looking at him. "I love you babe" he speaks while chewing.

For our first day we visit the Louvre Museum. The tourist guide hands us pamphlets and walks us through the museum. Greg laughs everytime he looks at my face, I guess I'm looking goofy but I can't help it. We take pictures... lots and lots of pictures for the gram of course.

I'm not that active on social media, but I do post now and then. I laugh when I read comments from a post I posted a few hours ago. Greg and I decided to take the Paris Metro, which was a great experience because I've never been on a metro before. I just had to share that with my 'not so many' followers.

"What's funny" Greg looks over at me as I'm busy scrolling on the comments. "My cousin is asking me why I didn't put her in my suitcase" I say and Greg laughs. "There you go" he hands me my croque monsieur. After an hour in the museum we stopped by a small stall to try their food.

I always wanted to know what the fuss about a croque monsieur is, because it's just a hot sandwich made with Ham and cheese. "This is so good, I'm gonna buy another one" I look over a Greg who's enjoying the snack as I am.

We stop by some street dancers and cheer along with the crowd. One of the dancers pulls me in and starts dancing with me. Greg takes pictures and videos of my very bad dancing, but I don't care I'm just having a good time. Once we finish I put money on the cup and we decide to go back to the hotel.

The hotel we are staying at is Hôtel Le Bristol and words can't explain how beautiful it is. "Thank you" I say as we enter our room. "What for?" Greg looks down at me.

"All This. I had so much fun today" I say wrapping my arms around him. He lifts me up and carries me to the bed. "I want to do so many things to you, but I just remembered they have a great pool area. Let's go explore it" he gets off me and I huff. "Later baby" he laughs at me.

I have to applaud Jude for packing such a sexy swimsuit. Speaking of Jude, I can't believe she kept this whole thing from me. I know it was a surprise, however I'm impressed she never slipped while talking to me. I did get curious when she called me before I went home for Christmas asking me questions regarding my clothing but I just figured she wanted to buy a gift. Now it all makes sense.
