Chapter 33
He and Artemis had agreed for going away for a date for two months now. They were waiting for the perfect moment. When they heard that one of the members were going to France for a mission, they knew it was their chance.
They left notes in their rooms and got in the plane that was leaving.
It was morning when the plane landed in Paris. They left the airport and stood in the street.
" So, where to? " Artemis asked, both of them dressed in theirs training uniforms, both full black in Paris summer. They were holding hands and looking around.
" How about going left? "
" Left sounds good. Where to exactly? "
" I don't know. We'll know when we get there. "
And so they started walking. Not running. Just slowly walking sometimes talking, but mostly they were quiet, enjoying each others company. Enjoying being able to relax.
They wandered for hours, when they got hungry they stole some fruits from a street market. Eventually they arrived in the Seine. They walked to a bridge and set on the edge and watched the sunset, leaning against each other, arms around each others waits.
" So, where do you want to spent the night? " He asked her.
" Somewhere with a view. "
He smiled. It really was going to be a beautiful night. The stars were going to be bright and visible.
The sun was long gone when they moved from their spot on the bridge.
They kept walking on the street. After stealing a wallet from a man who was walking around they ate in a small restaurant.
Hours later they found themselves in the roof from one of the buildings next to the Seine, a perfect view of the stars.
They laid next to each other.
He looked at her, her eyes staring at the night sky. He moved closer and started kissing her. She immediately responded, kissing him back.
In a few minutes they were already working on taking their clothes off, kisses becoming more and more passionate, the need growing, hands quickly removing clothes.
No one saw them on the roof, no one heard them.
When the first rays of light hit the sky, they were still wrapped around each other. Oblivious to the rest of the world.
