"It literally is spelt 'butt' with an 'e' how else was I supposed to say it?" I said agitated.

"Correctly, maybe? It's 'Butte'" He says with a laugh.

"Show off." I pout at him again.

"Come on, there's one more thing I want to show you before we head back." He pulls on my hand and leads me away.

"Okay." I nod my head to him and let him guide me through the streets of 'La Butte-aux-Cailles'.

"This is where I used to go all the time to clear my head as a kid. It's peaceful and basically a secret. But it's a secret that everyone that lives here knows about. I come here everytime I visit." He gives me a small, shy smile.

"Its beautiful, Levi." I say mesmerised as I look around at the passageway he's brought me too. There's greenery, flowers and trees all surrounding it making it seem like you're not even in Paris at all, much like the rest of the village. It was a quaint green haven for the busy city.

"This whole place is called the secret village of Paris. It's such a stark contrast in comparison to Paris that people forget its even connected to it. That's why I love it. Its quiet, people keep to themselves and its beautiful. There's so much here to see." He shrugs to me. "This is my favourite part though, it's like going through a tunnel to a whole new world surrounded in green."

"Thank you, Levi." I say after a few moments and smile at him and he gives me a confused look. "For bringing me here I mean, for showing me all this. Showing me where you grew up. It means a lot to me."

His face softens at my words and he pulls me close to him so he can rest his head against my shoulder. "Thank you for being someone I could share this with."

Shortly after we head back to the hotel get everything ready for the remainder of the week, knowing our next two days are jam packed with activities.

*A/N - Holy shit guys, nearly 6k reads?? What?! Thank you!! *Update it's now at nearly 7k?!*

Pre-warning - long A/N incoming, but I'm excited!

I'm absolutely loving all these comments and votes coming up lately and seeing you guys interact, it's nice to have a small "conversation" with you. So don't stop! I honestly get so excited seeing someone comment or vote on my story🥰

I know my update pattern has been very irregular lately, but I'm trying to keep it to atleast one chapter a week (where possible) I've just had a few things going on with doing overtime at work, being ill and getting everything ready for Christmas.

I want to try and do a standalone Christmas special as well that I'm hoping to post either Christmas eve or Christmas day and then a new year's special, which again will be on New year's eve or New year's day. So the current chapters will go on hold briefly but then hopefully back to a normal update pattern.

Don't worry, it won't be like the Halloween special I hoped to do and never got around to doing...I'll actually do it!😅

As always, comment, vote, follow, add the story etc. I'll always reply, or if I don't, just know I'm smiling at your comment no matter what it is!

Love you all❤, don't be afraid to ever PM me about anything either. Even if it's not book related, I'll try my best to reply! And thank you for reading all this if you've even got this far, let me know what you think!*
