Later

Demyan 

"I'll see you when I come back," Ethan planted kiss over kiss on my lips as I hugged him for dear life. My legs were wrapped around his waist as he held me up. 

We had just landed in London and even though I knew this moment was coming, I found it incredibly hard to peel myself off Ethan as we stood in front of my Cullinan. 

"I'll miss you," I pressed kisses all over his face, "I miss you already."

"That will motivate me to work even faster," he grinned. "I love you, Demy. I'll be counting the seconds until I see you again."

"And I'll be counting the nanoseconds," I rubbed my nose against his. He carried me to the car and placed me down on the driver's seat. "Thank you so much for the trip. I enjoyed it immensely. I can't thank you enough Ethan, it meant so much to me."

His shy smile made my heart blossom. "There'll be many more to come. I love you Demy."
