To the Moon and Back (Royalty series #1)

Chapter 17- Dusk till Dawn

I woke up to the sound of chirping birds outside, it still hadn't sink in, I'm back at my hometown. I got off bed and went to my walk-in closet to change clothes since we would be going to the Louvre Museum since Andrea wanted to go and since she won the game of which we played yesterday, she was the one who called dibs for what we were going to do for the rest of the day.

We all decided to meet up near the garage since we would need a car to go to our destination, as I went downstairs I saw all of them awaiting for my arrival already, Ace especially caught my eye, he was wearing this blue shirt which was tucked in his ripped jeans showing off his masculine figure. As we went inside the garage the others stared in awe, my family liked to collect cars especially my late father, it was like a hobby.

There were at the very least 35 cars in total but my favorite was my black 2019 Audi A7 Sportback, not because it was expensive but because it was the last gift my father gave me before he passed away, it was when he had travelled Ingolstadt, Germany.

"Dibs" Ace called out as he saw me get a hold of the car keys from the drawer, I laughed while looking at the others pleading for them to take him instead, but the others being their matchmaking selves decided to ignore my cry for help and instead drove away.

As I went inside the car I heard the most obnoxious, loudest, and irritating music coming from the speakers of my car, I quickly turned it off while annoyingly staring at Ace, he decided to annoy me more since I turned of his 'music' until

"Stop, let's go there" He pleases making me stop and step on the brake causing the car to stop as I parked and turned off the engine.

I stepped off the car as I looked at the shop he asked me to stop for, it was an expensive and luxurious brand, Hermès Paris, he quickly ran to the store like a little girl running towards the ice cream truck. I chuckled as I saw how cute he looked but confused as to why he wanted to go to the store only to see him looking at rings, he grabbed a silver ring in which he smiled as he put it on, I walked towards him smiling when he whispered at me

"Follow my lead" he spoke in his deep husky voice as I nodded

"Do you like this babe?" He spoke, my eyes grew larger thinking why he said that until I saw this poster in French which translated

'Planning to buy a wedding ring can be  expensive which is why allow us to plan your honeymoon for free! Just buy a ring for marriage and a honeymoon will be yours'

My eyes grew even larger until Ace spoke once again

"Babe?" He spoke nudging me by the shoulder, I decided to play along with his charade, I put on my 'fiancé façade'

"I love it babe" I said enthusiastically as I kissed his cheek trying to make the charade easier to believe.

After we bought the ring the manager spoke whom told us about the promo, we got to go to the Louvre for free as well as going on top of the Eiffel Tower. As we went back outside I quickly asked Ace of why he wanted to get that promo of which he explained

"You're already giving us your hospitality by letting us stay at your house, the least we could do is to lessen the expenses of us staying and visiting your hometown" he spoke making me melt at how thoughtful he was, not only was he grateful but he was considerate enough to think about others, since I couldn't speak I just kissed him on his lips showing how grateful I was of his actions.

As we reached the Louvre we quickly showed the manager of the gallery our tickets from our promo and had gotten inside, I scanned the room to look at the paintings but the one that caught my eye above all was the painting named as "Liberty leading the people".
