My Innocent Girl novel Chapter 46

"Ah, where are you lost?" 

I came out of my thoughts and looked at him. "Huh?"

"I asked, where are you lost?"

"N-Nowhere"

I was lost in his thoughts like I am frequently nowadays. I always feared him. Everyone did and still does. But I don't anymore... I know who he is in reality. He is just a loner who needs love. He is a really caring, lovely husband behind the coldness he shows being the Mafia boss and I know it all now. 

And honestly, I love what I know.

I felt comfortable in the cab as we moved towards the airport. Maybe I was excited for Paris, but more I was excited to spend time with him. 

I looked at him and he looked back at me with a small smile. I smiled back and he took my hand in his. 

"You look so happy today," he whispered. "I am really glad"

"I am so happy that you are glad because of me"

He kept his hand on my face and traced his fingers along my face. Then he touched my lips with his thumb. "You are so beautiful"

"Ah thanks"

He smiled bigger and came close. "Vincent, we are in a cab!" I whispered.

"Doesn't matter," He said in a husky tone.

"VINCENT" I whisper-yelled.

He laughed softly and went back. "Just let me get the room in Paris with you. You are gonna regret pushing me away"

"Oh I am not pushing you away, but you should have some manners"

"So you have no problems with me, then you will not even regret anything"

I looked at him and sighed. "Oh Vincent, I am really excited"

"For--"

"For PARIS!" I clarified before he could say anything.

"Oh alright"

I sighed. "Well, how much more time till we reach there?" I asked him.

"Almost there"

"Okay"

We continued moving and then the car stopped in front of an airport. 

"Come out," he said with a smile. I got out and he came out and took my hand. The cab left and then we moved towards the airplane. 

"Do you wanna roam around a bit? or go inside directly?"

"Your choice" I replied.

"Your choice, baby"

I looked at him wide-eyed while he laughed. "What, Ashy. I can call you that"

"Ah you can... but it looked weird"

"I think you meant, sounded"

"Yeah!!"

"Hm of course. But you will get used to it"

"Are you sure?"

"Why not?"

"Oh okay"

He smiled and then we saw the time. "It is better to sit inside, time is gonna be up soon"

We were on the plane and finally, it took off. I was excited as I looked out of the window. He held my hand. 

"So, what do you wanna do as soon as we reach there, baby?"

I blushed and smiled. "Ah... maybe just go and sleep!" I said with a proud smile.

"Oh, you should know I am not gonna let you sleep!"

"Huh, you can't stop me!"

"I will not! You will not wanna sleep!"

I sighed. "Uh, whatever!"

He smirked and then we waited for Paris.

It was a long flight of 11 hours. I was completely tired even though we just sat on the plane! Well, I just wanted to go and sleep in my room when we reached there.

"So, come on" he took my hand and we went to a cab. He looked like he wasn't tired at all. Well, I would almost faint if he asked me to go somewhere else with him!

We sat inside the cab and then it started going at normal speed.

"Are you tired?"

"Yup!"

"Oh that is so sad, I planned so much!"

"So much?" I asked him.

"Yup, like the things we would do in the room--"

"SHUT UP!"

He laughed and I just sighed in irritation. Ah, is he serious, like really!?
