The Billionaire I Fell In Love With

She stopped going to the library at night from the day she made things clear to him and it’s now like they’re avoiding each other.

“What’s up? Where to?” Ethan asked.

“To get water” Irish said.

“Why aren’t you asleep yet?” She added.

“I guess I’m used to staying up late in the library” Ethan said.

“That’s where you’re headed?” Irish asked.

“No, i came out of my room after i heard Arin’s door open”

“Ohh” Irish said.

“Goodnight” She added as she started walking away.

His eyes does magic to her body and she doesn’t want to keep staring at him.

They’re not good together or rather, she’s not the perfect lady for him.

She was aware he followed her down to the kitchen.

The bodyguards stood by the door of the kitchen while Irish poured water into a glass cup. Ethan stood staring at her and she sighed uncomfortably.

Her cheeks were starting to heat up and she was forced to ask him what he wants.

“I want you to hang out with me tomorrow” He said.

“Hang out? You won’t be going to work?”

“Yeah”

“Ohh” She gulped down her water.

“So, why me?”

“I don’t know”Ethan shrugged. He missed her and he wanted to spend some time with her alone, she has been avoiding him and it’s starting to kill him slowly.

“Please, don’t refuse. I understand we can’t be in a romantic relationship but are you against friendship too?” Ethan asked.

“No”

“So… will you go out with me?” Ethan asked with pleading eyes.

“Yes” Irish smiled inwardly.

She really wants to be alone with him too, she missed him so much.

Ethan parked the car and they both got out.

They are both on their outing without no bodyguard and of course Ethan was using his shades and face cap.

She was putting on a sheepskin coat in a cream and brown color and good looking black boots with jeans and sweater.

Ethan had told her to dress warm.

She wondered where he was taking her.

He stretched out his hand and she hesitated before placing hers in it.

She was stunned to discover they were walking into an airport.

They walked up to his plane, it was huge.

She stared at the plane before facing him.

“W.. wha.. wher..” She stammered.

“Chill” Ethan laughed.

“Where are you taking me?” Irish asked.

“I thought we’d go to Vermont for the day, there are some beautiful walks, pretty inns where we can have lunch, we’ll be back this afternoon” Ethan said.

“Ohh, i hope it’s not sooo expensive?” Irish asked.

“Com’on” Ethan said.

“Okay” Irish finally smiled…

She’s so excited.

She still looked stunned as she walked up the stairway to Ethan’s plane where a purser and a stewardess waited to welcome them.

The captain and copilot had clearance for take off and said they’d be leaving in few minutes, as they sat down in the big comfortable seats.

A few minutes later, they took off and the stewardess served them breakfast.

The breakfast was delicious, they both had scrambled eggs, blueberry muffins, cappuccino. Ethan had black coffee instead of cappuccino though.

They both chatted on the brief flight and they landed in Vermont two hours later at an airstrip near a tiny village.

“Wow!” Irish exclaimed with a smile.

The leaves were orange and red and yellow.

The pilot had rented a car for them that was waiting when they landed so they could drive around alone.

They got into the car and Ethan started driving to where only him knows.

Irish was obviously excited as she squealed like a kid.

Ethan felt so happy he made her smile.

He parked the car at edge of a forest, and there was a small lake with swans on it.

Irish smiled as they both got out.

It was chilly, autumn had already come to Vermont, it wasn’t as cold yet in California.

“Let’s sit” Ethan said, spreading a little mat he had gotten from the car.

“Woah” Jessica smiled as she stepped out of the plane with Mrs Harlow.

They were back in California.

Ethan and Irish laughed at his joke, while they wandered into a bookstore in Vermont.

They had left the swan lake after spending some time and now they were just walking when they sighted the bookstore.

It really struck her how the people are so friendly.

The salespeople were pleasant and anxious to help them.

They left the bookstore two hours later and Ethan led her to a hotel.

“We’re going to have lunch in a hotel room because..” Ethan was saying.

“Because you don’t like eating with your sunshades on and if you should put it off in a restaurant, you’ll be figured out and it’ll be all over the news in a second” Irish completed his words for him with a smile.

“Thanks for understanding” Ethan laughed.

They got to the hotel, booked a room and ordered lunch.

They checked in to their room, it was a beautiful little room with a fireplace and flowered chintz.

There was a large bed with white bedspread and a single chair and table.

A round mirror was facing a dressing chair.

The room looks tidy and small with a pretty nice smell too.

Irish sighed as she laid on the bed on her back.

Ethan was seated on the couch, straightening out his long legs.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

He removed his sunshade and sighed.

“Our outing has been enjoyable so far” Irish smiled, turning to face Ethan.

“I’m glad you found it enjoyable, i just needed to do something to make you stop ignoring me” Ethan said.

“Ohh” Irish said remorsefully as she pulled off her boots.

“Im trying so hard not to soil your reputation” She added as she stretched out her legs too.”You care about what the world will say than your own feelings?” Ethan asked with a little frown and the knock on the door saved Irish from answering.
