ANNIE POV

The next morning, we on our way to the airport. I never ride private jet before. Mia look enthusiastic. Everything about Arthur always make her curious. Added now she happy that she have a wonderfull dad. All the way she keep talking with Arthur and Arthur respond her wisely. Arthur love holding my hand, sometimes he  hug my waist. After his confession, he more protective than before to me.

When we back, I realized its not direction to my home. Looking confused, but Arthur just hug me tight and snuggled my neck. He love doing it. Keep silent and looking outside through the windows enjoying the view. 

I looking at the house, ten times bigger than my home. Its hugh, more like mansion. Mia running inside the house, "who's house is this Arthur ?" I looking around

"Its mine Baby, and there's something I need to telk you, come with me" he take me to the studying room. I sit in the couch, and he sit beside me, his hand linger on my waist.

He look so seriously, I see mix emotions in his eyes "I know you and Mia have your own place. After you left me, I make up my mind that I don't want to let you go. I want you and Mia stay here, with me. When I wake up in the morning, I want to see you, and hug you when I sleep. I know it so much to asked. Can you consider it, baby ?"

While he caressing my knuckles, I just keep silent thinking, my feeling has been changes lately. Arthur has affected me more than what I thinking. After our vacation, I feel that I just can't stay away from him, beside Mia already getting attached to him. I smile and looked at him, "Ask Mia then, if she's stay, then I'll stay"

Without hesitation, he get out the room, leaving me alone. Suddenly Mia and Arthur come back. Arthur sit next to me, and Mia looking confused. Arthur explains to Mia everything that he told me before, I listening at their conversation and look at Mia's face, I want to see her reaction.

"Mom, dad ... I want it ... now we look like family .. I seen my room. Dad can we paint my room please ?" Mia says excited.

We just looking at each other and I just nodded and smile to Arthur. Arthur  smile widely, he kiss my cheek and tell Mia that he will get his personal designer to renovate Mia's room. Arthur spoiled Mia, luckily Mia never take advantages from him. He forced me to take his blackcard, at first I refused it. In the end, after a lot of argument with him, I'm still failed.

I still working at library, I like working there. At first, Arthur tell me to resign, but I rejected it. Just because he's a billionaire, its contradict with my principle. He even give me personal driver, to take Mia and me everywhere we go.

I sit in the living room, reading my novel, when I see Arthur sit next to me, kiss my forehead.

"Baby, how's today ? Mia told me that she's going to home late, because she's with Edward" he wink.

"Nothing specials, how come she told you, not me her mother" I sigh and pouted.

He laughter and kiss my cheek "You know what, I never take you to a proper date, come on changes your dress, I'll be waiting here"

I get to shower, wearing black dress, touch my make up which rarely I used, then take my clutch. When I going down stairs I see Arthur looking handsome. He staring at me, gawking, when I reach him, he hug me and whisper in my ear "Baby, you breathtaking"

"Same as you too Arthur" I kiss his cheek.

He open the door for me, let me in and he take driver seat. I put my seatbelt and enjoying the view.

"Where're we going ?" I turn the radio on.

He grip the steering wheel looking at the rear mirror "Its surprise baby"

I suddenly remembered, Anthony never take me out like this. We never going out for date. When everything seems normal with Anthony, Arthur is the opposite. Arthur show me so many thing, he never shout at me, mad at me, and he always protect me and Mia.

He take me to the beach, the last time I went to the beach when Mia 5 years old. We walking down the beach, and I see a blanket covering the sand, top of it there's a picnic basket.

I narrow my eyes tease him "are we going to picnic here ?"

"Baby, I want tonight you only for me" he says seductive.

I sit at the blanket open the picnic basket, I see there's sandwich, chinesee food, and a bottle of wine. I pour the wine in the glass, and pull out the sandwich. We eat in silence, while I enjoying the view. He get closer to me and start kissing my neck, my jaw and then kissing my lips.

"Baby, you don't know how long I have been waiting to kiss you" he heavy breathing

I hug him, after all we've been together, my feeling is getting stronger to him. I never say that I like him. Maybe tonight is the right time to confess my feeling to him.

"I like you Arthur" I says it and then kissing him

"Baby, be my girl will you ?" He kissing me back and I moan. He hug me tight and he kiss my neck roughly, his hand trail to my breast, and play it. My heart beat faster, it feel hot and I fell burn inside.

"Yes, I will" my breath is itching, my cheek flushed.

I never think that I will falling in love again, this time is more stronger than when I'm with Anthony. I look upon the sky, the star shining bright. I lean to his shoulder, smelling his cologne, for this moment I hope time will stop. But deep inside my heart, I'm scared, usually when something good come to me then bad things happened.

Arthur seem notice the sudden changing of my face, he says softly "you mean so much to me, if something happens, bear with me" then he kissed me again.

He take something from his pocket, its a gold necklace, on the locket was written arthur

"Its yours baby, it means you belong to me" he put it around my neck.

"I loved it, thank you Arthur" I kissed him.
