Louisa moved her face away from Henry, her eyelids slowly opened. With her lips parted and starting to swell, Louisa looked at Henry with teary eyes. There is a feeling of happiness and joy going on in her. Louisa could feel thousands of butterflies flying in her stomach and made her feel euphoric. Meanwhile, Henry also looked at Louisa with lips that couldn't stop smiling there. 'I don't even care about my career anymore, Louisa. Because, I love you too," Henry whispered, pressing his forehead against Louisa's.
"Now kiss me again you fool," Louisa mumbled with a small chuckle there.
Henry and Louisa kissed again gently. Didn't care at all about the few people who had been watching them for a long time. Secretly, they felt touched, happy, and envious of the two of them. "We have to go home right now ... you are already very drunk," said Henry shortly after breaking the kiss between them.
Louisa just nodded her head and gripped Henry's left palm with her right. Louisa took the first step, and Henry couldn't stop himself from smiling. They both look very happy. When Henry and Louisa arrived at the car park, Louisa turned her head to look at Henry and started smiling silly. "Henry, why are you turning?" She muttered.
"What?" Henry asked.
Louisa laughed giddily again. 'You turned around and look! Now… you have three? Gosh Henry, you're triplets?"
Henry just shook his head slowly and suppressed a smile. "Let's get in the car... you're pretty drunk."
Louisa suddenly stopped laughing and looked so worried right now. "I thought I was going to throw up..."
Henry's eyes widened for a moment. "R-now?"
Before she could answer, Louisa had already let go of Henry's hand and ran to the other side of the parking lot, throwing up. Henry came closer and rubbed Louisa's back gently. "I really suck with champagne..." Louisa muttered as she straightened herself up.
Henry reached into his trouser pocket for a tissue, and started to wipe Louisa's lips. "Don't drink too much anymore, Louisa... it's not good for your health either," Henry asked as he threw away the tissue.
'Hehe… I know... I know. I thought I was going to faint…"
After saying that, Louisa suddenly lost consciousness, and luckily Henry managed to catch Louisa's body before she fell. Henry held Louisa's back into his arms, before starting to carry Louisa's body bridal styles. Slowly put Louisa into the car, and sat Louisa in the car seat next to the steering wheel. Don't forget to put the seatbelt on, then drive the car at medium speed.
It didn't take long for them to get home. Quickly Henry carried Louisa back to the room. Henry laid Louisa on the bed slowly. Henry fell silent when his face was so close to Louisa's, and he smiled again. 'I don't want you to forget what you told me this night, Louisa. Because it means a lot to me," he muttered.
Then Henry started to put the blanket on Louisa who was still wearing the dress. Of course, Henry still didn't dare to do that, even though the two of them had just confessed their feelings for each other. Henry decided to lie down beside Louisa too. Henry's left hand moved to be able to tuck Louisa's hair that covered her face. Louisa suddenly moved closer to him and started to hug Henry's body. Put her head right on Henry's chest, then fell back asleep fast. As for Henry, he took a deep breath, before draping his left arm to hug Louisa, and fell asleep as well.

Louisa opened her eyes and let out a small yawn. She was silent for a moment before finally realizing that Henry was still hugging her while sleeping right now. Louisa smiled a little, and started to raise her right hand to touch Henry's face slowly. The slender fingers boldly touched Henry's forehead, closed eyelids, cheeks, bridge of nose and lips. Subconsciously, Louisa bit her lower lip when she noticed Henry's lips that she touched there. She remembered how those lips kissed her gently and demandingly. Louisa remembered how the kiss that Henry gave her made her feel lulled.
"If you keep doing that things, I don't know if I can still hold myself at this time right now, Louisa." Henry said suddenly, which immediately surprised Louisa and took her right hand away fast. Louisa felt so nervous and immediately averted her gaze. As for Henry, he started to open his eyelids and smiled widely. "Good morning, Louisa." He whispered.
'G-good morning, Henry," Louisa stuttered. Then slowly began to replace the lying position by sitting on the bed. Louisa leaned her body on the head of the bed, because the effects of the drink she drank last night didn't seem to have completely disappeared.
Henry who saw this, immediately got up from the bed. "I'll get an aspirin and breakfast for you, okay..." Henry said with a smile on his face.
Louisa nodded her head slowly. And after that, Henry walked out of the room. Louisa slowly got off the bed and walked to the bathroom to clean herself. Right under the pouring water, Louisa lowered her head and let the water wet her head and hair. She started smiled happily and couldn't help it. 'Gosh… I'm so embarrassed. I've never felt this way before. The past five years of my life. And... it feels like I'm on top of the highest Ferris wheel, and when I remember this happy feeling in my heart and my mind, it's like when the Ferris wheel slowly turns down to earth. Until my stomach feels like there are a lot of butterflies," Louisa muttered with her palms covering her face.
Then Louisa turned off the shower and walked slowly after wrapping her body with a towel. Louisa stood right in front of the large mirror in the bathroom. Louisa could clearly see how her face turned red in the mirror whenever she remembered the kiss between her and Henry last night. "I have never even thought this would happen, and that was to Henry."
