"Promise me you'll keep in touch" she said as she stared at the ground, unable to hold his gaze. "Of course I'll keep in touch, you mean everything to me" he said to her reassuringly, but a part of him still sensed doubt in her.
He lifted her head slowly with his hand till she was facing him, but still she refused to look him in the eye. "Look at me" he said to her in a whisper. She swallowed hard as she hesitantly looked at him, his gaze holding an intense stare. His heart broke a little as he saw her eyes flooding with eyes, on the brink of rolling down her face.
"I want you to do something for me" he said to her not looking away for a second, "wait for me" the tears finally rolled down her cheeks as those three words struck her like lightning and she couldn't hold it in anymore, she pulled him into a strong embrace as she nodded her head vigorously.
He held her face as they pulled away from their embrace taking in her simple beauty one last time, he wanted to feel her lips one last time. He inched towards her face slowly, he wanted to savour every moment he had with her.
It didn't matter to them that they were in public, it didn't matter that they were locking lips in the middle of the airport, it didn't matter that eyes were on them, all that mattered was that moment.

Her cheeks turned red, ever so slightly through her chocolate skin. Her skin looked and felt so smooth. She liked the compliments, the Italian flare. It ropes many women, but the way she looked at me with her big almond eyes had my mind racing and my body in overdrive. She was not immune to my charm, even in her current situation. Her hair was in a slick bun. I was sad not to be able to see the curls adorne her face. And yet she stared at me again, watching me like a dog. Curious gazes. It was fun to tease, and the response I got back over affirmed my teasing. She seemed more relaxed with me. She looked away from me. She stared out the window watching the street ride by. It was silent for a while as I texted my subordinates basic commands. Nothing conspicuous.
"Alessio, where are you taking me," her voice piped up.
Seems like it took her a while to muster up the courage. I loved her sweet voice when it spoke me me and when she said my name... It was such a turn-on. She wasn't supposed to really ask questions. I don't like lots of questions. I thought about the best way to respond but opted not to say anything at all. She was as stubborn as always, forgetful too. She scanned around me before huffing to herself and looking back out the window.
