Chapter 37: Chapter 37

I woke up feeling refreshed, I got down from my bed and walked sluggishly to the bathroom.

I was amazed by the sight of it, it has a big glass Jacuzzi and I was excited to get in real fast.

I loved the way the water soothes my skin and I rubbed the exotic gel soap on my skin, this was great.

I got out of the bathroom feeling great with the towel still wrapped around my body, I opened the curtains and I was taken by the sight of it.

"It's beautiful out there, " I muttered to myself.

We are having our gala meeting tonight, so I still have time to check out the outside and go over to the Eiffel Tower.

I went over my box and bought out a shorts and crop jacket with a pair of sneakers.

I wore them quickly and tied my hair into a ponytail.

Glancing at the mirror and satisfied with my looks, I went out of the room.

I walked down the stairs and greeted the receptionist who wasted no time greeting me back.

Feeling excited, I got out of the hotel and faced it again to take a look at it properly.

It has a glamorous golden triangle near the charaps Elysèes. It was so beautiful.

I walked happily along the roadside, I'm gonna jog to the Eiffel Tower since it's not that far from the hotel.

As I jogged along the way, I thought about Drake and I frowned a bit.

He is only using you! Angela's voice rang in my ear and I tried to get it out of my head until someone drew me by my waist close to his torso making me gasp a bit.

I was about to scream when a familiar Cologne hit through my nose.

I looked up and it was Drake looking worriedly at me.

"Am sorry about what Angela did to you yesternight." He said remorsefully.

"I even came after you and knocked on your door but you refused to open it." He said worriedly.

"I was asleep then," I said and made to jog away from him but he pulled me by the waist again making me hit my ass to his core.

"It's there anything worrying you that I don't know of?" He asked bending his closer to my neck.

"Well, I don't know maybe you are using," I said with a frown facing him.

His face looked aggressive as he pulled my arms roughly.

"Where the hell did that come into your mind." He said fiercely.

"You are hurting me!" I winced in pain as I tried to snatch my hands out of his hold.

His face changed guilty, "Am sorry."

He said as he left my hands alone and brushed his hair to the back as he sighed.

"Amanda, I don't know how I will express myself to you that I love you." He said sadly.

Have never seen him like this ever since have met.

"I will never for once use you, Amanda, I don't know what you did to me but you are the only woman have ever been serious with." He said looking at me in the eyes.

I was already feeling guilty about what I said.

"And if you are thinking about what will happen between me and Angela, nothing is gonna happen have made that clear to her already." He said still looking at me but he maintained his gap between us.

"You did," I said shockingly.

"Yeah, and am going to convince my parents tonight to change their ordeal with the Castles. We are doing fine without them." He said finally and made to walk away.

I wasn't expecting this at all.

"Drake!" I called out.

And he turned back to look at me and I ran over to him and hugged him tightly.

I guess he was shocked though.

"I'm sorry for what I said earlier." I apologized.

"It's okay." He said as he patted my back.

I looked up at him and stood on my toes to peck him.

"Hmmm!!" He smirked and I giggled.

"So where are you up to, you look so hot this morning." He said raising a brow at me.

"Uhm! I wanna check out the Eiffel Tower." I said timidly.

"Great, I also wanna check It out too." He said and held my hand be he began jogging and I followed behind him giggling.

30 minutes later.

We finally got to the Eiffel Tower and we both knelt on our knees breathing heavily.

"Wow!! It's beautiful," I said admiring it.

I brought out my iPhone immediately and gave it to Drake to snap pictures.

I posed expecting Drake to snap the pictures but instead, he stared at me raising a brow at me.

"What are you waiting for, take the pictures," I said as I raised two hands above my head and posed.

"Okay, ma'am." He said chuckling.

He bent a little and started snapping while I did a different pose.

"Hope you are not snapping rubbish," I called out while I squatted moving my right leg forward a bit and touching my hair.

"No ma'am," He said chuckling again.

After feeling satisfied with the pose have made, I collected my iPhone from Drake.

I checked the pictures and they were beautiful.

"Seems you are not a bad photographer," I smirked at him.

"Well am not." He said feeling quite proud of himself.

Some couples were passing and I decided to call the lady.

"Hi!! Please do you mind taking a picture of us?" I asked the two lovely couples.

"Yeah sure." The lady said happily and I giggled.

I turned to Drake as he stared at me.

"What?" I asked with a smirk.

"You are unbelievable." He said smiling at me.

I stood by him not expecting what he did.

He carried me up in his arms throwing me up over his shoulder.

"Take the picture." He told the lady.

"Sure." The lady giggled.

"Drake for Christ's sake this is not a way of taking pictures," I said laughing.

"Are you done?" Drake asked the lady.

"Yep," She said.

Drake placed me on the ground and drew me by my waist.

"Please another shot." He said with a smirk.

"Aww, you two look cute together," She said snapping us.

"Thank you," I said and collected my iPhone from her.

"How long have you two been dating?" She asked smiling at us.

I was at a loss for words, well it hasn't been up to four months that I and Drake started dating.

"Two years now and she hasn't told me yes when I asked for her hand in marriage," Drake said with a pout on his lips.

My eyes nearly bulged out.

"You two will make a great couple," The lady husband said.

"Yeah we will but I hope she agrees soon," Drake said with a smirk on his lips.

I glared at him and he smiled it off.

"You just have to work harder to make her see she's yours. She just like my wife." He said as he drew her closer to him and she rolled her eyes.

"Yes I will, thanks a lot," Drake said.

"Yeah, you two have a nice day." The couples said and left.

I folded my arms on my chest and glared at him.

"What?" He asked smirking.

"Ya such a great liar," I said raising a brow at him.

"I'm not," He said chuckling as he tried to catch me.

I ran away from him and we started chasing each other.

It was fun as we both laughed.

I missed dodging him and he caught me throwing me over his arms.

"Let me down," I said giggling as I hit him at his back.

He ignored me and kept on walking as people smiled at us.

I kept on hitting his back but he was adamant, I felt defeated and let him carry me to wherever he was going.

Then after 30 minutes later, he dropped me down.

"Guess you like chocolates." He said with a smirk.

"Well, I do but you've given me a headache as you carried me from the tower," I said as I placed my palm on my forehead.

"So where are we?" I asked as I turned around with my hands on my hips.

"Oh my Gawd!" I said covering my mouth with my hands.

It was a big chocolate shop.

"How do you know I love chocolate?" I asked as I excitedly got into the shop.

"Most women do." He said as he picked a box full of chocolates.

I went over to him and take a look at the box.

"I want this," I said and he handed over the box to me as I giggled like a kid.

We went over to the counter and paid for it.

We got out of the shop and walked hand in hand to the hotel.

"Wish I could visit more interesting places tomorrow, please can we?" I asked pouting.

"I was planning on having one with you though." He said as he drew me closer to him.

"That's great." I smiled.

We finally got to the hotel and we went up to my room.

"Today was fun," Drake said as he rested by the door side.

"Yes, it was," I said flashing him a smile.

"Aren't coming in?" I asked him as I went over to him.

"Tonight go and rest a bit." He said with a smirk.

"Huh!" I muttered confusingly.

He took a step closer to me and placed his fingertips to raise my chin making me look straight in his eyes.

He lowered his head and kissed me lightly on the lips and I wrapped my hands around his neck drawing him closer to me.

I loved everything about him, I loved the way he uses his mouth to make me have butterflies in my stomach.

I broke the kiss and he used his thumb to rub my cheeks.

"I love seeing you happy, Amanda." He said smiling at me.

"Thank you," I said and pecked him.

"So tonight." He winked.

"Yeah tonight," I said even though I don't know what he meant by that.

He gave me an evil smirk and walked out of my room.

I closed the door and the first thing that came to my mind was the chocolates.
