"I'll miss you," Pierre pouts as I finish packing up the last of my new wardrobe, half the clothes still unworn to my great annoyance and I sigh as I look at him on the bed we had shared for the last few nights.

Nothing more than kisses had happened, to I think both our surprise, but by the time we had gotten home after the yacht we were exhausted - the next day we were woken up by his brother and Leonard coming round and asking if we wanted to play mini golf before they left which of course we said yes too and quickly got ready and left. That resulted in us going straight to the main villa afterwards to say goodbye to others and then we stayed with the stragglers and had dinner, playing games which was a lot of fun as I beat Pierre and his dad at chess several times over. Pierre was crap at it though so that was easy however, his dad was really good and it had been a lot of rather tense games for the onlookers as it was enjoyed by drinking far too much so once again. When we got back to the villa that night we just fell straight asleep and then last night I was just too bummed out to do anything, finding myself missing him before I had even left, nervous about what the week apart might bring as I rushed to try and sort out the last few touches of Lisa's wedding.

"I'll miss you too..." I say sadly as I finally zip up the last suitcase before checking my watch and realising that we really needed to leave. Pierre had agreed to drive me to the airport to catch the plane. "I'll see you in eight days in Austria though..." I say in a more upbeat positive manner and he nods as we remember that we have an Alpha Tauri shoot for his merch line with them then.

"You need to message me when you get through security and when you board the plane, when you land and-"

"And when I get picked up and call you when I get home..." I say smiling finishing his sentence as the words have been spoken many times over the last twenty-four hours to my amusement and annoyance.

Pierre squints at me to see if I'm making fun of him before shaking his head lightly at me and shooting me the middle finger, a habit of mine that he seems to have picked up to my amusement. I grin as I walk over to him, quickly sitting on his lap and taking his face in my hands as I place a kiss on his nose and then lips, melting into his touch as he holds onto me tightly. "Call me?" He says once the kiss is broken and I look at him confused. "Like, every night? Especially the drunk calls! I was promised drunk calls!" He says to remind me as he presses kiss all over my face frantically and I just laugh and nod in agreement as I try to pry his hands off me.

"Pierrrreeee, I have to go now or I'm going to miss my flight," I whine as he refuses to let go and he shrugs.

"Good, you can stay then," he says simply as he places a kiss on my temple and I let out a laugh.

"I cannot stay...it's my sisters wedding!" I tell him as though he's being insane - which in fairness he is and knowing that he relents and lets go of me.

"Fine," he says moodily and I shake my head as I escape before he changes my mind, quickly picking up several of my bags before leaving the room, hearing Pierre follow close behind me.

"So you're taking those two back to Milan for me?" I ask to clarify as he places two of them near the sofa while I take the other one and my camera bag with me to the door and he nods. "Alright, fab, well...I have everything - we can go!" I tell him innocently as I open the front door and head straight out to the car, an uncharacteristically quiet Pierre following in my wake as he helps me with my bags and I watch with a sad smile as he closes the boot of the car. "Come on P..." I whine as I take his shirt in my hands, closing my fists around it as I bring him close.

"It feels like we're only just beginning and getting a chance - I just don't want to leave this bubble...especially because I don't really know what is even going on with us," he confesses as he strokes my cheek affectionately and leans down to kiss my lips as though he's trying to placate me and thinks he will have stressed me out by saying that.
