After each keeping to their sides of the bed, they both only had a couple of hours of sleep before they got up, each keeping to themselves. By the time Leo came to get them, Austin was ready and Andy was just finishing packing her bags.
"Ready?"
Andy nodded and zipped up her bag, dropping it down onto the floor.
"You alright?"
"Fine."
Leo knew better and lifted up her chin, then looking at Austin.
"What happened, you two were fine at the wedding."
Andy pulled her chin away.
"I'm just tired."
Leo looked at Austin and for their benefit he smiled at his friend to let him know it was for another reason.
"Forget it I don't want to know."
Leo took Andy's bag and walked out, as Andy looked around, but Austin stopped her.
"Please, I don't want to fight."
"We're not."
"Then look at me and tell me you're not mad."
Andy looked up and looks right into his eyes.
"I'm not mad."
"But you went to bed without saying another word."
"Because I was hurt, I still am."
"Was it that bad?"
Andy couldn't help but laugh.
"Not that! You, what you thought of me and what you said to me at the end."
"Well you do run away."
"I didn't want to argue. That's not how I wanted you to find out and I was so embarrassed, but it's not like you made it any easier."
"I'm sorry; I didn't know how to react. I just assumed being as beautiful as you are and kind, caring, that someone else might have had the pleasure of making you a woman."
"You mean..."
Austin shook his head and kissed her.
"Stop, I don't care what happened. You're here, you're with me and you're my wife and I'm honored that I'm the man who..."
"Well it's not like I had a choice."
"Will you stop interrupting me and let me finish?"
"Sorry."
"Like I was saying, I'm honored that it was me even if it wasn't the conventional way of doing it."
"Well we haven't been much of a conventional couple, have we?"
"Nope, but still, it was our wedding night and I really wanted to make it special."
"It was, until the end of course."
"I liked the begging better too, especially when you were yanking on my hair."
"Oh my god Austin!"
Andy tried to step away, but Austin pulled her against him, kissing her.
"I love you and I promise that I'll make it up to you."
Andy sighed, feeling her wall crumble back down. She didn't know what it was about this man, but he did things to her that no one else has been able to do.
"I love you too."
They kissed for a second before they hurried out and met their grandfather looking impatient.
"I hope you two weren't..."
"Of course not Grandfather and good morning."
Andy kissed him on the cheek and got into the SUV with Austin's help.
"So you two had a good night?"
"Yeah, we talked and went to sleep."
He eyed him before he nodded and Austin helped his grandfather into the SUV.
"Stop, that tickles and I have the baby!"
Austin couldn't help himself, he was desperate for some attention from his wife. They had been flying for three hours and she still hadn't let the baby go.
"I thought I was your baby?"
Andy rolled her eyes.
"Yeah and you're acting like one too, so stop."
"It's not fair, she gets all the attention and she's not even ours."
"Imagine when we do."
"I already do. They'll have your gorgeous skin, my killer personality and all of our undying love and attention."
Andy laughed, shaking her head.
"I think we should practice for a while before we have them."
"No, we're having one as soon as I can get you pregnant."
"Austin, why always the rush?"
"Because I'm not getting any younger."
It was then that Andy didn't know how old Austin was.
"How old are you again?"
"I'll be thirty at the end of the year."
"Thirty?"
"I know right?"
"Austin, I'm only twenty three."
"I know, I had to get you young."
Austin laughed, kissing her neck.
"So young and innocent, just the way I like you."
Andy giggled, pushing him away with his elbow.
"Stop!"
Austin had it, she took the baby from Andy's hands and got up, handing her over to her mother. He then turned back to his wife and pulled her up, taking her to the back of the plane into the restroom.
"Austin what are you doing?"
"Getting some attention."
He pushed her against the sink and wrapped her legs around his waist as he pushed against her.
"I want you so bad."
"We can't."
"Then kiss me."
Andy didn't have to be told twice. She grabbed his neck and pressed his lips against hers.
After a while, things started getting steamy, but Andy was turned on, especially when Austin had removed her clothes from the waist up.
"Back up."
Andy pushed Austin back and jumped down, then sat on the toilet seat. She looked up at her husband and smiled, pulling at his belt.
"You know how to...?"
"How about you just cover your mouth for me and let me do this for you?"
Austin nodded and watched her as she took him into her mouth.
"Fuck!"
"Shhh..."
It was then that there was a knock at the door.
"You two get out of there right now."
Andy pulled back, but Austin pulled her back in.
"Andy is just helping me with something."
"This is not the time to playing games Austin!"
"Seriously Grandfather, I just wanted some alone time with my wife."
Andy went faster, causing Austin to bang his hand on the wall.
"Shit!"
"What is going in there?!"
Andy smiled.
"Austin is..."
She took him back in her mouth and gagged.
"I have a flying problem."
"And I'm holding her hair."
Andy had to laugh because it was true he was, nothing told to their grandfather was false, per say.
She did it again, this time finally getting the result she wanted from her husband.
"Well hurry up."
"Yes sir!"
Andy quickly got up and washed her mouth and chest as Austin kissed her neck and back.
"Stop!"
She grabbed her clothes and started putting them on before she took one look in the mirror and allowed Austin to open the door. She now had to pretend she was sick, which was easy as Austin cradled her as much as he could.
"You're so loving this aren't you?"
"Oh yeah, especially under the blanket."
"Perve."
"Baby, you have no idea."
Andy laughed, snuggling against him. At least she knew that when she was sick he would be there for.
The plane ride to Europe was longer than Andy had expected, but she had fallen asleep in her husband's arms more than one time during the trip, which to Austin was the best time he has had with his wife.
"Hey sleepy head, time to get up."
"But I'm so comfy."
Austin laughed, kissing her temple.
"We're in Paris."
Andy was up, looking around as Austin laughed.
"We have to get off first."
"But what are we doing here?"
"Just a quick stop, to fuel up, but I'm sure you want to see the city?"
"Ummm yes please!"
She got up and got out of the plane to find a car waiting for them.
"Where's everyone else?"
"They went to grandfather's apartment to rest."
"He has an apartment here?"
"Yes, we do business here and it's convenient to have one."
"Oh okay."
"Come let's go."
Taking her hand they got in the car and headed out.
"Notice something?"
Andy looked up to her husband and smiled.
"No, what is it?"
"We're alone."
Andy smiled and nodded.
"We are."
"Then come here."
Andy moved over and snuggled against her husband who had other ideas.
"Mmm, maybe we should get a hotel room for ourselves."
"Like your grandfather would allow that."
"We are newlyweds, we need time to be alone."
Andy was suddenly sad.
"What?"
"Today will be the last day before we get separated."
Austin caressed her cheek and gave her a lingering kiss.
"Then let's make the most of shall we?"
"Okay."
The only problem was that they had two different ideas of spending time with one another. Austin wanted to take Andy shopping, while Andy just wanted to spend time with her husband around the city and get to know him. Unfortunately Austin won due to his grandfather giving them a call, but she did learn that he spoke French and a lot of people knew who he was and heard of her.
By the time they headed back to the airport, everyone was well energized while Andy was in a bad mood and tired.
"I see he took you shopping."
Andy nodded, looking out the window.
"You okay?"
"Still tired, but I'll be okay."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I'm fine."
Andy was shutting herself down again. She suddenly had an urge to cry and the minute she had a chance, she got up and locked herself in the restroom. She cried quietly hoping she didn't stay in there for long because then she would have to explain herself.
After a couple of minutes she washed her face and took a pill for her headache before heading out again. Everyone was having dinner, but she wasn't hungry and sat in the back of the plane where she took a blanket and read. Leo knew something was wrong and got up.
"You okay?"
Andy nodded, but didn't look up.
"Austin got you your favorite."
"I'm not really hungry, I have an upset stomach and a headache."
"Probably because you haven't ate."
"It's better if I didn't risk it."
"Want anything to drink?"
"Leo, please... I just need me time right now."
"Okay, I'm sorry, I was just worried."
"There's a surprise."
Andy didn't mean it to come out so mean, but it was already too late.
"I'm sorry."
"No, I get it, I'll leave you alone."
He walked away then and Andy sighed, going back to her book. Everyone left her alone for the most part, but Austin didn't stay too far from her waiting to see if she needed anything.
"Stop staring at me, I'm not asking you to come sit next to me."
"Can I just ask one question?"
"What is it?"
"Did I do something?"
"No, I just want alone time."
"But we had such a nice time..."
"No, you did, I just tried on the clothes and watched as women knew who I was and yet..."
She stopped talking and shook her head.
"Forget it, I get it and its fine."
Austin knew exactly what he was doing and even if it was his way of protecting her until she found out who he really was, he had to let her be and hopefully she would understand why he did what he did.
Arriving in Luxemborg was like arriving at a different world. Vivian got up from her seat with Leo and they kissed.
"I'll see you back at the palace."
Leo kissed his wife one more time before looking at Andy.
"We go first, ready?"
She looked at Austin and he was already on the phone. Her heart sank, but she got up and grabbed her things.
"You'll see him later."
Andy nodded at Grandfather and walked out with her brother to two cars waiting for them.
"Welcome back Mr. Anderson."
"Hello Jeffrey, this is Andy."
"Aww Ms. Anderson, welcome to Luxemborg, we hope you enjoy your stay."
"Thank you."
They both got in and drove away as soon as their luggage was in their car. Andy didn't say anything as her brother gave her a brief history of the town they were in until they came to a very large building.
"Grand Hôtel Cravat, this is where you'll be staying."
"I will?"
"Yes, we'll be staying at the family home."
"Right, I forgot."
Andy was about to open her door, but Leo stopped her.
"Let them open it, you'll have to get use to that."
Andy waited until his brother's door was opened and then she was allowed to come out.
"Men always first."
Andy took a deep breath and nodded.
"Come, they've already checked you in, I'll walk you up."
"No, it's alright, I can do it on my own."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, thank you."
She turned then and walked inside.
"Aww Ms. Anderson."
Andy smiled.
"This way please."
She followed the bell boy and headed up to her room.
