I sit up in bed and I yawn. It's been 2 weeks since Dad and I had a little bit of a falling out since Klaus came back. He's waiting for me to apologize, but I'm waiting for him to do the same. He can't control me, but he wants to and I hate that. I shower then I change into a pair of jeans and some flats. I hear a knock on the door as I pull a blue Nirvana t-shirt on over my head. It opens and I see Mom on the other side.
"Hey Em. We should talk."
"Not interested."
"Where are you going?"
"My boyfriend is in Paris and I want to see him. So I am." She sighs.
"Yes, your Dad is still mad about Klaus. I'm not, I've made my peace with him, but your Dad hasn't. You can't blame him for being angry."
"Am I allowed to blame him for making all my decisions for me since the time I could think for myself? Like when he wanted to keep me from seeing Damian?"
"That's what parents do, Ember."
"You don't. You've always let me think for myself."
"Your Dad is different."
"Well, until he'd like to apologize, I'll be with the love of my life." I put on my jacket and I grab my bag, then I head outside. I smile when I see Damian leaning against the railing of the stairs. He smiles back at me. I run down the steps to him and I press my lips to his. We pull away after a few seconds.
"Good morning, Ember." I giggle.
"Good morning Damian." He takes my hand then we start walking down the street.
"Can I just say how perfect this is? Being in Paris with you?" I bite my lip.
"It is perfect." We walk down to this coffee shop we like and order some breakfast and some coffee.
"Croissants and coffee is my favorite part of the day." He comments.
"I don't know. I like riding the train to wherever the hell we want." He laughs a little then leans down and presses his lips to mine.
"I love you, Ember." I lean my forehead against his.
"I love you too, Damian." We grab our coffee then sit down and eat. Afterwards we head down to the train station. I take out my map.
"Where should we go today?" I put my sunglasses on and he does the same.
"Where'd we go yesterday?"
"We went to the Louvre, right?"
"Didn't we plan go today?"
"No, we decided to go yesterday."
"Right. Hmm... How about the Palais?"
"Let's go. Then we can go to the Arc de Triomphe."
"Sounds amazing." We get on the train.
"I'm looking on the website and it only costs 25 euros to tour the place."
"How much do you have?"
"A lot. I saved up before we even went to Italy."
"And I have a lot too. Family savings and all that." I laugh and get on my tip toes then kiss him. He smiles against my lips and I smile back. Soon it's our stop and we get off. Damian links our fingers and we start walking down the street. Once we get to the Palais, we get tickets.
"Okay, so our tour isn't until 1:30 and it's 11:00 right now, so our best bet would be lunch first." He kisses me gently.
"That sounds like an amazing idea." I kiss him again and he smiles.
