DISCLAIMER: I do not own any of The Royals characters, however I own some original characters that you'll get to know them one by one.

Hi everyone!

I hope you still remember and my little story! Things have been crazy around me for a while but now recently I'm tasting a bit of peace so I continued the half-written new chapter of Hypnotic and decided to update it. And for confirmation: Both my stories are still going strong and I'll continue updating so don't worry!

Here's the new chap, hope you'll like it ;)

Chapter16_Let's Go Back

Eleanor groaned as she felt the warmth of the sun on her face and put her hand on her closed lids to block out the light. She heard a quiet chuckle from her left side so she opened her eyes and curiously looked at Jasper.

Jasper sighed happily: "Morning." Eleanor couldn't help but groan again: "I feel like I slept for two minutes." Jasper wrapped a hand around her and pulled her closer so the sun wouldn't trouble her. Eleanor happily attached herself to him and closed her eyes and heard Jasper's voice: "Actually, you've been asleep for, like, six hours."

Eleanor asked, truly shocked: "Does that count as sleeping in your world?" Jasper chuckled again and said: "You should rest more. I'll make sure the curtains will be hung in an hour. For now, I'll just put a blanket over your head."

He went to move that Eleanor asked: "Where are you going?" He explained calmly: "I think I should wash off the blood and get into fresh clothes and then do something about the security of this damn palace."

Eleanor opened her eyes and suddenly noticed all the dried blood she was resting her head on. Her own dress got bloodied last night as well, when she hugged him, but Jasper quickly grabbed her another dress.

She wanted to object, not let him out of her sight, but she knew it was irrational so she sucked in all the nervousness she felt and simply said: "Alright." It was obvious that Jasper had expected a little more than that but he brushed off the surprise and got off the bed.

Eleanor closed her eyes but she knew sleep was not an option anymore. Jasper was heading towards the door, she could hear his steps, so she offered: "Take a shower here. Need I remind you, you still have new clothes here?"

Her eyes were still closed but she could hear him coming back towards her. She could feel his hesitation hanging in the air so she opened her eyes to see it for herself. Jasper was looking at her strangely, like he wasn't sure how to act next.

Eleanor frowned and asked: "What?" Jasper scratched his head nervously and mumbled: "I just… I thought after last night…" Eleanor tried so hard not to growl angrily at him for bringing it up. She kept that thing hidden in the back of her mind for the past few hours but now it was out in the open.

Eleanor sighed and got off the bed as well. She would not have that discussion without a drink. Jasper watched as she moved around the room and poured herself a drink. She asked without looking at him: "Want one?"

Jasper quickly said no, not wanting to make another mistake like last night. Apparently his tolerance was lowered compared to old times. Eleanor turned and sat down on the very same couch the incident happened on and asked calmly: "So… who is she?"

Jasper sat on the chair in front of her and tried to find a good way to start and after a moment of silence he started with: "You probably guessed already… but Sam is my ex. I told you, it's been quite a while since I got high… And the last time I did… I was with her… back in Vegas… And it just… I guess things got mixed up in my head…"

"Okay." Eleanor let out quietly before taking a sip of her drink. Jasper wanted to say more, wanted to explain more, but apparently Eleanor had enough. Deep down, she wanted to know about her, she wanted to know why they broke up, but she knew if she went down that path, she'd keep comparing herself to 'her' and ultimately comparing their relationship to theirs.

As Jasper watched her empty her glass, she realized that she was finally maturing. She wasn't jealous of her or their past, she wasn't actually wondering if she was beautiful, and most importantly, she didn't feel insecure.

She got up and walked to Jasper, a visible smile on her lips, and it made Jasper's face light up. She murmured: "I get it… God knows how many names I called you when I was drunk our first few months…" Jasper used the opportunity to joke: "Just God!"

Eleanor giggled and put her hands on his shoulders when she said: "It's okay if you blurted last night. I was so mad at you I didn't even say anything when you sent me off with Peter. I ran back and you weren't here. I was scared to death, locked in the safe room, wondering if something had happened to you..."

Jasper let out softly: "Len…" Eleanor put her finger on his lips and went on: "I just wanted to see you, wanted to feel your arms around me, and I know it's cheesy but more than anything, I wanted to tell you that I love you…"

Jasper stood up, caught her face in his hands and kissed her without a word. There were so many things they wanted to say to each other at that moment, but the kiss pretty much summed everything up. Finally after a night full of terrors, they were both feeling blissful.

Jasper had left after his shower to check on Liam and talk about what happened last night and suggested Eleanor take a nap but she couldn't bring herself back to sleep so she took a shower as well and texted Ophelia to come see her.

She was lighting a joint when Ophelia knocked and walked inside. Eleanor greeted her with a nod and asked: "Want one?" Ophelia shook her head with a smile and sat down next to the Princess. Eleanor took a hit and said: "You know some asshole actually went through my clothes last night?"

Ophelia chuckled and said: "Did they steal anything?" Eleanor shrugged and said: "God knows. But, it got me thinking, maybe we should go shopping. It's been a while." Ophelia hesitated before saying: "I thought I was gonna go meet Liam later…"

Eleanor rolled her eyes and said: "He's with Jasper right now, and he's gonna be here when we come back. Don't say no to the Princess, you know, it may be considered a crime around here!" Ophelia laughed and said: "Alright. But two hours, okay?" Eleanor took another hit as approval and started to get ready.

Three hours later the girls were back in the palace, holding numerous shopping bags, even though Peter was holding six. Ophelia hurried back towards Liam's room after saying goodbye to Eleanor quickly and Eleanor headed towards her room.

She hardly opened the door and heard a soft melody playing which made her raise her head. Jasper was standing near a small dining table in the middle of her room with a smile on his face. Eleanor dropped the bags and closed the door behind her, ignoring Peter.

"What is this?" She asked, still in shock, as she walked closer and saw the plates. Jasper explained: "I know you didn't really get to eat breakfast, so I made some French toast for us." Eleanor chuckled and said: "You made this?"

Jasper pulled a chair for her and said: "Well, when I made it to the kitchen I was nearly kicked out, but one of the chefs knew me from back in the day and let me stay and make them." He kissed her cheek quickly before he sat in the chair in front of her.

Eleanor knew he went through all that trouble to make up for last night but she still bit her lower lip and said: "This is so sweet…" Jasper joked: "Wait until you taste these!" Eleanor chuckled and started eating away and moaning in approval. And they ate, laughed, and ate until they no longer could.

Eleanor finally sat straight and said: "God, Jasper, this was amazing. It reminded me of…" Jasper finished her sentence for her: "Monaco." She nodded happily and said: "I still think about it…" Jasper confessed: "Me too…"

Eleanor's eyes started glowing and she exclaimed: "We should go back there!" Jasper asked: "What, now?" She stood up and went over to him and said: "Yeah, now. It's the perfect timing. We'll get away from this whole attack on the palace thing, and we'll get some alone time and have fun…"

Jasper locked his hands around her waist and said: "Sounds great." Eleanor smiled from ear to ear and said: "And we'll go to that beach…" Jasper smiled as well and said: "I can't wait to see your face when you get back into the water."

Eleanor hovered over him and asked: "And then what would you do after seeing my face like that?" Jasper mumbled: "Something like this…" He lifted his head and caught her lips with his and kissed her like there was no tomorrow.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Fifteen hours later and they were on the private jet heading to Monaco. Eleanor was actually awake when they took their seats but she fell asleep as soon as they started moving. Her head was resting on his shoulder and Jasper let himself fall back to sleep as well.

When he opened his eyes he was welcomed with a weak headache and the absence of Eleanor. For a quick moment worry washed over him but then he saw her walk towards him and a smile was planted on his face.

Eleanor smirked before she exclaimed: "You've been sleeping this whole time. I didn't make a sound, I wanted to see how long you'd last!" Jasper faked a frown and she laughed out loud before sitting back next to him.

"Seriously, how long I was out?" Jasper asked after straightening his voice. Eleanor looked at her phone and said: "About three hours. But that's when I woke up." Jasper groaned and moved in his place, making Eleanor chuckle loudly.

Jasper ignored her and stood up to move around a bit and Eleanor announced: "We'll be landing in ten minutes or so." Jasper nodded and went to wash up as Eleanor started working with her phone. He walked into the bathroom and the memories hit him.

Eleanor's strip tease, Ophelia walking in on them, the urgency they both felt right there in the massive bathroom. He smiled almost invisibly and started splashing cold water on his face. He felt like he was finally awake and he headed back to Eleanor.

Eleanor saw the expression on Jasper's face and smiked: "I know. I remember." He sighed and kissed her when he was close enough. He also remembered how careful they were the last time but there was no worry at that moment, only happiness.

"I missed this fucking place!" Eleanor shouted as they walked into the villa and Jasper grabbed her hand and pulled her close to steal a kiss. And they both knew this time no one would interrupt. They were all alone.

After he pulled away, she giggle before saying: "Save it for later. Right now we're going to the beach." Jasper bowed mockingly and said: "Anything you demand, Princess." She bit her lower lip and said playfully: "I demand you to be shirtless…"

Before Jasper could act, she said: "Wait, no. I don't want other bitches straing at you." Jasper laugehd and asked: "Jealous, Your Highness?" Eleanor rolled her eyes and tugged on his shirt before saying: "I want you all to myself…" Jasper whispered: "You have me…"

Eleanor smiled and pulled back even though she wanted to stay close to him for as long as she could but there was a beach to go to. She grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the master bedroom. He put their luggage down and appreciated the view before Eleanor ordered him to change.

Jasper only wore dark shorts and Eleanor was in her red bra and panties but they packed warm clothes and blanket as well. They both knew they were spending the night there. After all, Eleanor always kept her promises.

So how was it guys?

I hope you enjoyed it :)
