Falling in Love : I love you, Today and Forever

"Aria, where are we going?" Noah asked again, and Aria glared at him again.

"I told you to have patience. I will not answer you even if you keep asking me." She uttered and concentrated on driving instead of on the man who had not stopped asking her about her plans. 

The moment they had left the hospital, Aria had taken over the driver's seat, pushing Noah to the side, stunning him completely. When asked, all she did was to point to the passenger seat, silently ordering him to not question her. Noah did not have any choice but to do as he was told. However, he could not stay still. The excitement and the suspense were killing him, and he wanted to find out what Aria had planned for him.

But the girl beside him was adamant to keep her surprise undercover. Even after asking several times, she had not disclosed a word about it, and Noah's curiosity had reached the peak. They were now driving away from the city, and Noah frowned seeing the route they were driving on.

"Aria, are we going on a long drive?" He questioned, elated by the thought. A long drive with Aria was definitely an amazing surprise, and he could not ask for something better. He could have Aria to himself without anyone interfering in their matter. What more did he want?

"Noah, I can hear your thoughts till here," Aria commented, taking a look at the man who was gazing at her with such intensity that Aria feared that he would eat her right here.

"Is it? Tell me about them, dear." He leaned closer to her, startling her. But Aria composed herself right on time. Although the path she was driving on was empty, she did not want to take risks.

"I don't want to," Aria replied quickly.

"Then you are bluffing. You don't know what I am thinking." Noah pouted and moved back. Although he had expected this outcome, he was still dejected, for he wanted Aria to reveal what she knew about his thoughts. 

Aria glanced at the man who was pouting like a little kid, and she shook her head in helplessness. He was just like a kid at times. But she found this trait of his extremely cute and lovable. "You want this to be a long drive so that you could spend more time with me. Am I right?" 

Aria decided to entertain the man this once, for she did not want to see him disheartened. Moreover, it was his birthday, and he deserved some happiness on his special day. And just as she had expected, Noah's head snapped to her as he stared at her in surprise. But eventually, it turned to a smirk, the one that told Aria that she was in danger. He did not hide his wolfish gaze, and Aria realized that this was all his ploy to get her speaking.

"You are wicked," She huffed, gritting her teeth for falling for his schemes.

"You know me so well, darling." Noah smiled, seeing her complain. It was lovely to see her all frustrated and agitated, and he loved it more when she grumbled like an adorable kid. "And you are right. I want you all for myself. Imagine what all we could do with no one to interrupt us." As soon as the words left his lips, Noah's mind reeled back to the time when he had seen Aria's purple bra, and at once, his eyes lowered to look at her breasts.

Although Noah had not given her a direct indication, Aria grasped what the man was saying, and her face turned red at once. She recalled the surprise she had prepared for him, and her heart thudded erratically in her chest. She peeked at the man, and she followed his line of gaze only to find him staring at her chest. Her eyes widened in shock, and Aria was almost about to lose it.

"Noah," She seethed, her voice low and dangerous.

"Hmm?" The man responded, not moving his gaze from her body.

"What are you looking at?" Aria stressed, and this time Noah sensed the difference in her tone. At once, his eyes shifted to meet hers and saw the annoyance in them. But he did not apologize to her, for he presumed to have nothing wrong.

"I am looking at you." He replied ambiguously, not revealing the truth.

"Why are you looking at me?" Aria shot back, frustrated at the man. They were almost nearing their destination, and Aria made sure to keep the man occupied.

"Why can't I look at my woman?" He questioned as though Aria had asked a ridiculous question.

"But you were staring at my breasts." Aria decided to go bold with him. She knew Noah wanted her to speak the words he wanted to hear, and she decided to entertain him.

"Yes, I was. Is that wrong?" Noah's question rendered Aria speechless, and she did not know what reply to give him. It was true that he had the right to stare at her just as much as she had to stare at him. 

"In that case, remove your shirt so that I can stare at your gorgeous body too," Aria replied, burying her shame in the deepest part of her mind. It was not the time to be shameful of her actions.

Her words made Noah's lips quirk up in amusement. "Aria, sweetheart, are you sure you want me to remove my shirt? I don't want you distracted. Or else, we might end up in an accident." Noah maintained a poker face when uttering the words, and Aria did not know if he was being serious or was just pulling her leg. She just scrunched up her face in response, and Noah chortled in merriment.

They drove for another five minutes before Aria glanced at Noah, who was looking at the place in confusion. He was familiar with the place even though he had never been here, and he gave a questioning look to the girl, who had now stopped driving.

"Aria, why are we here?" He queried as he watched Aria kill the engine and get out of the car. He frowned on seeing her leave him alone. But his frown turned into perplexity when Aria opened the door for him to step out. Even though he had no idea, he held her hand and stepped out of the car.

"Aria?" He questioned again, only to find the girl shaking her head at him.

"No questions, please. Lets's go." Aria pulled her with him, half excited, half anxious, wondering if the man would even like her surprise.

By now, Noah had more or less guessed what the girl had planned. But he still showed his obliviousness. He followed the girl, who suddenly became excited as they inched closer to the gates.

At the entrance, a guard was waiting for them, and as soon as he saw Aria, he nodded at her. 

"Is everything ready?"

"Yes, Dr. West. We have prepared everything as you have requested." He replied, and Noah wondered what she had prepared for him here, keeping his expectations low.

"Great. Thank you for your help." The girl smiled at the guard, and even before Noah could ask, she started to drag him again.

They entered a large clearing, and Noah's eyes widened on seeing what lay ahead of him. "Aria, is this the surprise you have prepared for me?" He queried, stunned by what he had seen earlier. Even though he had anticipated it when he had noticed the location, he could still not believe it.

"More or less." Aria held his hand and clasped her fingers with his. "Noah, let's take a trip on the hot air balloon."
