I'm still blown by how many chapters there are for this and I'm not even done. The heartbreak is coming soon but not soon enough. I got more ideas saved up too! This is crazy!

~~~~~~~~

Aidan couldn't work. How could he when (y/n) was leaving him. No, they didn't break up but it might as well feel like it!

He pouts when he turns in his seat, ignoring his work and watching his love pack. They both were in his bedroom working separately on their laptops, him working on music and her trying to figure out what to pack for her trip to her best friend's wedding. He saw how stressed she looked as she lets out a groan of frustration, double-checking everything since she was leaving tonight but he didn't want her to leave.

The brunette gets up and walks over to her, wrapping his arms around her and hugging her tightly from behind as he buried his face against her neck. "What's wrong lovely?" He whispers, pressing petal soft kisses beneath her jaw.

"I don't know if I have everything for India and then going to Orlando and what if I get stopped by the security-"

"-baby, everything will be fine. You packed almost 3 weeks in advance. You triple-checked everything. You have everything ready to go..." (y/n) could hear the sad tone in Aidan's voice and turned around to look at him.

"Hey," she reaches up to hold his cheeks as he glares at the luggage, turning him to face her. "I'll be only gone for a couple days. And even then you're coming to the wedding at the end of the week."

"But that's 4 days away! It's too long!" She chuckles as her love whines but he calms down when she leans up to peck his lips sweetly.

"It'll go just as quick."

"But then you're leaving for your internship after... and I'm coming back home..."

"We've done long distance before Aidan, I know we will be fine. Better than fine 'cause we're still closer compared to here and Australia."

"So you'll let me catch a flight to come see you if I miss you?"

"Aidan! No!" (Y/n) chuckles as he pouts but with a cheeky smile. "Plus you can't stay in my apartment. It's program employees only."

"I can always get a hotel... and you can stay with me..." Aidan pulls his love closer and she gasps when he kisses her neck, running his hands down her back to grab her ass and push her hips closer against his. "Just you and me, no one will be able to interrupt us." He smiles hearing her whimper softly when he sucks on her sweet spot, leaving a reminder of him on her as he kisses the blooming hickey.

"And what about your work? You still have the final plans to finish for marketing your album. Besides, I'll be too busy working too." The brunette groans when his love pulls away from his arms, moving to zip up her luggage as she gives him a cheeky smile.

"Come back here!" He grabs hold of her waist and she yelps from the sudden tug, her back flush against his chest. "I don't want to let you go..."

"Aidan-"

"-dance with me." He suddenly says, grinning as a song starts playing on his laptop. He just wanted to hold her a little longer, enjoying the way she blushes from his antics.

"Aidan! You know I can't dance-!" (Y/n) yelps when he pulls her more towards the middle of his room.

Aidan ignores her and pulls her close by her hips, earning a sharp gasp. A Latin pop song starts playing and he wraps his arms around her waist, guiding her to dance with him as she slowly rests her hands on his shoulder. He holds her as tight as possible, relishing in her warmth and how soft she feels in his arms as he danced with her, kissing her neck and down her shoulder as she sighs out his name blissfully with bashful cheeks. He lifts his head and chuckles at how she hides her face against his chest, leaning back to see her face before leaning down to kiss her lips ever so softly.

~~~~~~~~

Being scared and anxious was an absolute understatement, especially being in a whole other country you didn't know the language of at all!

This is how Aidan felt as he carefully walks out of the gate, peeking over the multiple heads of people while looking for a specific person he had been waiting to see again. It was extremely humid, lowering his glasses when he faintly hears her voice over the bustling chorus of people and his smile widened when he sees her. Oh, she was an actual dream, standing so pretty in her pink salwar kameez with her hair falling over her shoulders in waves.

Yes, he had been practising and researching to understand (y/n)'s culture before he arrived. What kind of boyfriend would he be if he didn't? He of course wanted his girlfriend to be proud of him and show him off to her family.

The brunette chuckles softly seeing her wave to him while she held a sign with his name, rushing over to her as she ran to him in excitement. "You're here!" she squeals when he picks her up and spins her around happily, bright smiles on both of their faces.

"Of course I am! There's no way I wouldn't be here!" He exclaims with a cheeky smile, setting his love back down on her feet. "You look so pretty." he whispers with adoration, being aware to keep his PDA low and he hugs her tightly instead. He chuckles hearing her mumble a soft 'thanks' against his chest before pulling back for her to grab his luggage.

"Let's go! You won't believe where the wedding is!" Aidan lets (y/n) hold his hand and pull him out of the airport, following her lead with a lovesick smile while she talked about the preparations, the celebrations and the rituals she helped her best friend with. "We're staying at a mansion! That's where the wedding and the reception are being held!"

"And it's our hotel too?"

"Yes! An actual Indian castle! It's massive!"

"About time!" the brunette blinks in surprise seeing another girl standing in front of the car his love had taken him to.

"Aidan, this is my best friend."

"Oh! Congratulations on the wedding." He shakes her hand with a nod.

"You must be the boyfriend. The one that's been hogging all my best friends' time!" (y/n)'s friend huffs and Aidan rubs the back of his neck nervously. "I haven't had a single moment with her since you came in and gave her the chance to travel the world!" He frowns lightly but eases when the girl laughs. "I'm only joking Aidan. You made (y/n) so much more happier than I have ever seen her before. Thank you."

"Ok, can we get out of this heat, please? I want to show him the big ass mansion!" Aidan chuckles as he lets (y/n) pull him into the car with her while her best friend orders the driver to put his luggage in the trunk before she gets in the front driver's seat, the car driving off down the road.

The brunette presses a kiss on his love's cheek and she smiles up at him with a blush as he brushes her hair back. "I missed you..." he whispers, holding her waist tightly and keeping her to his side.

"I missed you too. I can't wait to show you around. But we need to stick with my best friend. She's the translator for both of us. I don't know the language either. Being whitewashed and all."

"How are the preparations going for the wedding by the way?"

"Well, everything is set up and ready. We're doing henna night tonight for the wedding tomorrow and the reception the day after. We can relax today and show you around."

"Can't wait, baby."

"How was the flight? Was it ok? You don't feel sick do you?" Aidan smiles at (y/n)'s concern, kissing her cheek to ease her that he was alright. He followed her suggestions and everything had gone smoothly until he was safely in her arms again.

"I'm perfect now that I'm with you."

The car ride was long but eventful, (y/n) and her best friend showed Aidan the different places they drove past, getting snacks and little trinkets on the way to the royal castle where the wedding was being held at.

"Holy shit. You'd think royals are still staying here from how well it's being preserved." The brunette whistles lowly after, impressed by the architecture that was standing tall with the ocean cooling him down from behind the mansion. There was a large garden surrounding the estate, multiple smaller buildings spotting the gardens and he assumed they were smaller homes. There were various statues and exotic flora and fauna freely roaming around the mansion.

"I know right, and the fact you can book these out for events too is crazy! Like it has hundreds of rooms we can stay in and different rooms for events. There's even a large ballroom!" his love exclaims in excitement.

"I'm assuming you went around and explored, didn't you lovely?" Aidan muses knowing his love has a strange affinity for exploring large buildings.

"Hell no, buildings like these tend to be haunted. I haven't strayed away from my friend's side." (y/n) nervously said.

"It's haunted!?"

"I don't know... maybe?"

"(y/n)!"

"No one's died so far! They blessed the place before we set foot!" she explains quickly. "But I'm not exploring. I don't wanna anger anything."

"You and me both!"

~~~~~~~~

Being with the love of their life was a romance movie come true, unable to keep away from each other as they explored the new country together.

Aidan was on a complete high with (y/n), admiring the people and the land with her. They explored the sights and tried different things, sweets, fruits, snacks, clothing, jewellery, everything. He mindlessly let his love feed him even, noting how everything tastes so much better from her.

She was just in her element, having fun with him or having fun with the little kids that ran around her. The brunette smiles seeing how his love played in the water with the children, running around with them until she stops and looks at him with a bright smile and he swoons. He doesn't stop himself when he walks over to her and pulls her close by her waist, nuzzling her nose and kissing her forehead. He gently pulls her away to walk through the markets together one last time before they head back to the mansion, her holding his arm and leaning her head on his shoulder which makes him feel so protective.

Something catches (y/n)'s eyes and she looks at a certain stall that was selling jewellery, specifically the rings. She pulls Aidan along with her to admire the gold rings, knowing they were pure since gold was the most common type of metal to be made into jewellery that complimented her skin tone. It was a simple gold band with square diamonds patterned in the band, and a matching one sitting next to it that was a bigger size.

"Give me your hand." She grabs her love's hand and takes the bigger ring, slipping it on his right ring finger which catches him in surprise before she puts on the smaller-sized one. "Perfect fit for us both!" She talks to the shopkeeper in her language, buying the rings and the brunette just stares at the ring with wide eyes. "Let's go! I'm going to be late!" She muses as she grabs his hand and he just completely melts in a warm puddle with a love-sick loopy smile for her.

Aidan holds (y/n)'s hand tightly in his, feeling the cold ring press against his palm and he turns their entwined hands up to see how lovely the rings look on them both together. He presses a kiss on his love's ring finger before they get into a rickshaw.

"Why the rings?" The brunette whispers to his love and she flushes, noting how he hasn't let her hand go with his arm around her waist to keep hold of it.

"I thought they looked nice... and well... it's for all the aunties and uncles that ask us why we're not married."

"So we're lying to them?" He muses.

"Well, not really. If we tell them we have a live-in relationship, they'll think we're married."

"Well, we should start practising, my lovely wife."

"Aidan!" (Y/n) flushes while smacking his arm as he chuckles and presses a kiss on her cheek. "Not calling you husband."

"Awe... why not wifey?" Aidan grins at his love cheekily knowing how blushy she was getting. "I mean you just said it." He laughs softly when she huffs in annoyance. "I apologise mi vida." He hums sweetly, pressing another kiss on her shoulder and she shudders. "Don't be mad at me..." he whines against her skin, trailing kisses to her neck and nuzzling his nose against her.

"Behave." She gently holds his chin and pulls away while he gives her a smirk while wiggling his eyebrows, her rolling her eyes with a smile.

~~~~~~~~

"Ok, so here's where we are staying!" (Y/n) throws open the doors to reveal a large bedroom and living room space, balcony doors wide open to let in the salty ocean breeze that gently blows the bed canopy around. There was a fireplace with loveseats and a French chaise sofa, glass coffee tables, a tv, shelves with books and nicknacks, a large vanity with a mirror and wardrobes. There was even a walk-in wardrobe and a large ensuite bathroom with a large tub and a shower.

It was just absolutely massive!

"It's perfect." Aidan grins as he sweeps his love in his arms before kicking the bedroom door shut behind him, earning a gasp from her as he walks over to the chaise sofa and drops her down on it before immediately crawling on top of her to kiss her. Fuck, he had been waiting all day to kiss her. He lowers his body in hers, her hands pulling him closer by his back as he kisses her deeper and hitches her thighs around his waist. His hands tangle in her hair as he kisses her desperately, absolutely missing her taste and her scent and her sweet sounds. Fuck, her soft moans got him going so easily, bucking his hips against hers to hear more.

"Aidan~" he shudders from the shock of pleasure shooting through him when she moans his name, pulling back with heavy pants to pull himself together before diving down to kiss her neck as his hands start pushing her kameez up. He pauses by her salwar and she begs him to continue, smiling against her neck as he pulled it off her. He listens to the way her voice hitches when he brushes his fingers against her clothed clit, pushing up against her entrance to hear her whimper but he groans in frustration when her phone rings. "Aidan wait." he doesn't like how his love gently pushed him up away from her to answer the phone, scowling as she talks to her best friend and he decides to steal her attention again. "Yeah I-" she gasps softly when he kisses her neck, her holding his wrist tightly when his fingers suddenly delved beneath her panties to rub her clit making her gulp back her whimpers. "Now? I-" The brunette smiles when his love's eyes flutter close as he pushes his fingers inside her pussy, her biting her bottom lip to conceal her moans but he wanted to hear them as he fucks them deeper into her. "Let me just shower first and I'll come down. Ok b-bye-" he snatches her phone and ends the call, slamming his lips on his loves to kiss her as he crooks his fingers and stretches her out. "Fuck, Aidan~!"

"There she is." Aidan smirks against (y/n)'s lips, taking his fingers out which earns him a whine and he raises a brow at her.

"I need to go-"

"-I thought I heard you say you needed to take a shower." he nips at her neck, knowing not to leave marks on her but he moves down her body and lifts her bare thighs up to mark her there as much as he wanted.

"B-but there's a limit on water and I know you want to-" she gasps when he sucks on her thighs, holding them tight around his head to bite against her inner thighs. "-to take a shower after travelling on a plane-"

"-then let's take a shower together lovely." the brunette's eyes darken as he looks up at his love from between her legs, admiring her flushed cheeks and the way her chest rose up and down with quick pants.

"But-" he shuts her up when he sweeps her off her feet again, taking her to the bathroom to have that shower with her. Fuck, he was going to enjoy eating her out as he pinned her against the wall with the water running her down beautiful body.
