Chapter 24
Jane's POV
We were strolling along through the beautiful streets of Paris admiring its beauty. The buildings all had a touch of elegance because of their architecture. The cobblestone path made it seem as if you were in a movie. On our way to the Louvre we saw little shops set up selling little trinkets like jewelry or china. Some had dolls and other toys for the kids. Families were all around walking just as we were and laughing when their kids pulled them to the toys. It was all so breathtaking. We even saw a small jazz band playing in the streets, so we stopped to listen for a while.
Even though we wanted to stay there longer, we eventually had to continue our walk to the Louvre. Once we got there everything was just as unbelievable. The artwork being displayed ranged from photography to paintings to sculptures.
"Wow this is incredible. Its as if she's looking right at you. Da Vinci's talent amazes me." Harry said to me while we looked around at the paintings. My favorite was the Liberty Leading the People, something about it just drew me to it. We saw the Venus de Milo, The Raft of the Medusa, and almost all the other pieces of artwork.
"Can we go eat, I'm starving?" Niall said but everyone just laughed. "You're always hungry mate." Zayn responded but Eve quickly added, "It's not just him, I'm getting hungry too." That was sweet, Eve backed Niall up. They were going to make a great couple someday.
Seeing as everyone was hungry we started making our way around to the nearest restaurant. It turned out to be this small dinner looking place. It was warm and cozy inside just a few booths and tables. The waitress cam over once we sat down to take our orders. All the boys got burgers, while Perrie, Danielle, and Eleanor got salads. Eve and I got chicken melts. Everyone also got a milkshake, per the boys insisting.
After we ate we chatted for a while before deciding we had seen enough of Paris for today. We walked back to the hotel getting stopped by some fans along the way. Soon after more people started noticing so we had to get in the car, that was following us in case of an emergency like this. We felt sorry to have to stop the boys but it was getting crazy as fast as a snowball rolling down a small hill.
Once we were back at the hotel, which was now surrounded completely by fans, we had to go in through the back. Surprisingly no one was there, which I found odd because if I was a fan that's the first place I would wait for the boys. Maybe I'm just more dedicated. We all got in the elevator to go up to our suites. We had gotten the 12th floor because knowing people would find out we did want to take the penthouse which would be the obvious choice.
"Hey babe I'm gonna go talk to the boys, go on ahead to the room I'll catch up with you in a bit." Harry went off to where the other boys were standing. I found it a bit odd but just did what he said and went back to the room.
Harry's POV
I walked over to the boys to talk to them about later tonight. I had planned a special surprise for her to make up for my cheating. I asked the boys to help me out because I couldn't do it alone.
"Everything's set mate." Liam patted my back. "Yeah its all good to go. Jane's gonna love it." Louis said and that made me smile. Good I cant wait till tonight. This will show her how much I love her and how truly sorry I am. The sweet smile on her gorgeous face will be worth all the time and effort." I felt so excited for tonight, hoping Jane will love the surprise I have in store for her. "I better go, if I take much longer Jane will get suspicious." I said goodbye to the boys as I went back to our hotel room.
I opened the door to find Jane sitting in the living room area watching tv. "Hey Jane the boys suggested for us to go out to dinner tonight so be ready by seven okay? I'm going to go take a shower. Meet you downstairs in the lobby. "Okay," she answered making her way to the kitchen, I'm guessing to get a snack. I went to the bathroom clothes in hand and got ready for tonight. She would be in for such a surprise.
Jane's POV
After Harry had told me to be ready by seven I went to the kitchen to have a quick snack, some grapes, before going and getting ready. I took a quick shower before putting on my dress. It was a shade of blue similar to that of aquamarine but not completely. It was strapless dress that was form fitting at the top but loose on the bottom. It also had a sweetheart neckline, which was my favorite part about it. I slipped on some nude open toed pumps than did my hair into a waterfall braid with the loose hair curled loosely.
I looked at myself in the mirror one final time after doing my makeup before grabbing my clutch and heading out the door. I went to the elevator but I didn't see any of the other girls coming, so I figured they were already downstairs. When I heard a ding the lobby appeared infant of me, but what wasn't there or more like who was Harry. Instead, there was a man in a suit with a hat in his hands, looking like a chauffeur. "Are you Mrs. Collins?" He asked me. "Yes I am." "I am Charles, your escort this evening." He lead the way outside the lobby. "Escort? Where am I being taken?" He took me to a black limo where I assumed everyone else was, but I found it empty. "That I am afraid I cannot say."
I was getting curious as to where I was being taken. The other guys probably already left but its strange that Harry would leave without me. He would let the others go on ahead and go with me later. I tried calling Harry but it went straight to voicemail, so I tried leaving a message and then I texted him. The car began to slow then and came to a complete stop. Charles stayed sitting which confused me when someone opened my door. There stood Niall in a suit with a blindfold in hand. "Hey Jane, I'm sorry but you're going to have to put this on, Harry's orders." He extended his hand and I reluctantly tied it around my eyes. Then he helped me get out of the limo and walked me to who knows where. All I felt was when we suddenly stopped and started going up, so I figured we were in an elevator. It stopped and we walked out slowly Niall guiding me.
"Can I take the blindfold off now?" I asked curious to see what lie in front of me. Niall chuckled and said yes. Right there in front of me on top of the Eiffel Tower was Harry looking as handsome as ever in a tux next to a table set for toward a grand piano. I walked towards him and he did the same until we met. "Harry this is incredible. You did this all for me?" He grabbed my hand, "Yes. I wanted to show you how sorry I am for being such an idiot. I love you and only you." We slowly leaned in until our lips met in a passionate kiss. It wasn't like any of our other kisses, it was slow and his lips kissed mine so delicately as if he were afraid I would break. We stopped gasping for air with our foreheads pressing, staring into each others eyes. "I love yo so much Harry Styles." He kissed my forehead, "And I love you Jane Collins." "Forever," "And Always."
The rest of the night was spent eating and talking. Then though I thought it wasn't possible he made the night even better. a pianist came out and played our song. "Would you care to dance?" He said with his hand out towards me. "I'd love to." I grabbed his hand as he began to sing the song.
"I have died every day waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid I have loved you
For a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more"
We swayed for what felt like years but I couldn't ask for anything else. I was happy with Harry. Nothing else mattered. Just me and him. Everything else faded away as we held each other close.
