Love Can Conquer All

Chapter 33

Round tables were dotted around the court yard. Candles were in the centre of each table and trees had lanterns hanging from them. The large, outdoor fire place was alight and the white table cloths were pristine.

Louis pulled out my chair so I could sit down and then sat down beside me.

'Your menus.' Jason said as he handed them out. 'Can I get you both a drink?'

'Can we have champagne please?' Louis asked.

'Of course, I'll be back with your champagne and to take your orders in a minute.' He smiled brightly, a trademark American smile and strolled off.

'Champagne? What's the occasion?'

'There's nothing to celebrate but my beautiful girlfriend and our wonderful relationship.' He smiled.

'Fair enough.' I smiled. 'This is amazing, thank you so much.'

'It's my pleasure.' He squeezed my hand on the table, then picked up the menu and flicked through the pages. I couldn't help but watch as he did it, the muscles in his hand flexing.

I picked up mine and had a look. Everything sounded so delicious.

We decided what we wanted and when Jason returned we told him. He popped the cork off the champagne bottle and poured us both a glass. As Jacob walked away though, Louis whispered something in his ear. Jacob nodded and left the room quickly.

Moments later the soft hum of Little Things played throughout the court yard. I turned to Louis who was grinning at me.

'You're wonderful'

The night was perfect. We'd eaten fantastic food, had excellent wine and Louis was just indescribable. In the car on the way back to the hotel my head rested on his shoulder.

'This was the best night of my life.' I sighed. His hand was trailing up and down my arm.

'Mine too, I'm so lucky I have you.' He said softly.

'Yeah?' I lifted my head and looked at him.

'Yeah. You understand everything about my life. Nobody else would have been so calm about the paparazzi going mad on the way out.' He kissed my forehead.

'I'm lucky to have you. You're the world's most incredible boyfriend. You do so much to make me feel loved and wanted and... Pretty. No one else would've gone through all the effort to help me like you have and for that, I will always owe you. Plus, you brought the best taco's ever into my life. And who can be mad about that?'

'Alright, we're both lucky.' He laughed. The car pulled up outside our hotel and helped me out of the car. A few people stopped and looked and I heard one girl say to her friend 'Look at her dress, it's amazing', I couldn't help but smile to myself. The reception of the hotel was quiet, not many people were round at 11pm. The man at the desk smiled as we walked through.

'I can't wait to take that dress off you.' Louis whispered in my ear as we stood in the empty lift. I'd pressed the button for our floor and found Louis' arms snaking around my waist from behind. His mouth was pressed against my neck under my ear.

I turned around in his arms and kissed him on the lips, the lift stopped and we fell out into the corridor. I was still in his arms as he walked backwards to the door. I blindly fumbled in my bag for the key card and unlocked the door.

We stumbled into the room and I kicked the door shut behind me. I kicked off my shoes, bringing me back down to Louis' height; I threw my bag onto the sofa as we passed it, all of this happening with Louis still kissing me. We crashed through our bedroom door and into the bedroom. He stopped kissing me long enough to take one last look at me in my dress and then he unzipped it. It slipped over my body and onto the floor, it landed in a pool of blue fabric.

'You have no idea what you do to me.' He whispers to me.

I was now in my bra and underwear. I unbuttoned Louis' shirt and it hung open. His jacket was slung onto the chair and his shirt and trousers soon followed. Before my dress got ruined I quickly hung it up. Moments later I was back in Louis' arms as we fell onto the bed, his mouth barely leaving mine for even a second.
