So here it is! This is the last chapter! It's pretty long and probably pretty sappy too lol. Anyway, thanks everyone who followed that little story and hope you'll enjoy the last chapter.

There's some bit of... Heat... Toward the end of the chapter but I rated the story T but you've been warned lol.

They landed in Paris at 10 am, European time, it was 4 am in New York, they had 7 hours of flight and as Abe said, they hardly slept, they were way too excited about the trip that was waiting for them.

They were able to catch some hours but not a lot considering some turbulences. So, of course, they were jet lagged and when they walked into the big Charles De Gaulle airport, Jo couldn't stop yawning

- exactly what time is it? - she asked Henry

He checked his watch which was still at the American time

- considering it's 4 am in New York, it's 10 am here. You know, if you need to rest today, we don't have to do a lot of things.

She just glared at him and he laughed

- or not!

- Henry! I wanted to come here with you for a reason. It's still early, we will rest a bit but we got the whole day to do anything.

- that's about right! Come on, let's pick up our luggage

Right now, Jo wasn't awake enough to look around her or even outside. Before the plane landed, she quickly had a glance of the Eiffel tower and she was already picturing both herself and Henry at the top of it, no minding anyone or anything around them.

She tightened her hold on his hand and looked at him with loving eyes. She wasn't realizing yet, maybe she would once they would catch a cab to their hotel, but she was actually with Henry Morgan, in France and they would surely have a blast, she had no doubt about it.

They waited like 30 minutes to pick up their luggage and once it was done, Henry looked all around at the airport to find one exit. Even though it was an international airport, everything was written in both English in French but Jo didn't doubt Henry had no troubles with the French language.

They took a random exit where a lot of taxis were waiting and they walked toward one of them and the driver exited the car and welcomed them in french.

Jo frowned because except the greeting she couldn't get a word but Henry was easily speaking with the guy and explaining where they were heading. One way to melt her heart even more.

When they climbed at the back of the car, Jo whispered to Henry

- one of this day you'll have to teach me some of the languages you know.

He smiled and kissed her palms

- no problems! Well, at least, we can start with french, if you need a lesson, we'll have the whole week for me to teach you some basics.

Jo grinned and teased his lips

- hmm, like the french tongue huh.

They both laughed and Jo stole him a kiss. The driver was glancing at them in his mirror and couldn't help but chuckled. He was used to seeing teenagers putting their hands all over each other but hardly with two grown adults like them. It was probably an American thing, he thought to himself.

The traffic was awful, it wasn't a legend, even Jo heard about it. Only to leave the airport, it has been a pain in the ass. On the highway, it has been pretty much fluid but once they reached the city, it was another pain in the ass and Jo couldn't help but look at the counter of the car and was making a face every time the price was going up, even Henry didn't seem to mind. But bloody hell, this was all true, this was freaking expensive.

At least, she could enjoy the view and when they drove past the Eiffel Tower, Henry could have sworn he saw Jo's eyes shone like a kid going on a vacation for the first time, she couldn't take her eyes off « la dame de fer ». Henry slid his hand on hers

- don't worry! I'll take you to the top

- Oh, I didn't think you wouldn't. Taking a trip to Paris and not visiting the Eiffel Tower would be a shame

- I agree! Things have changed quite a lot ever since but I do think I can handle

She chuckled

- you're going to get me lost anyway so don't worry about that

- yes but you know it was for the romantic side of the thing

- I know honey, I know!

Facing the Eiffel Tower, way further, Henry told Jo it was the Montparnasse Tower. He explained the view was quite similar as the Eiffel one but on a different side. He would take her there as well if she wanted to.

The structure of the city was so old, Jo felt like she was actually visiting a history book and it was ironical considering her boyfriend was two centuries old and that's how she knew she would totally enjoy that trip. New York was as old as Paris but the buildings always have been repainted or rebuilt in a way to make it more modern. In Paris, except a few buildings, most of them were as old as the town itself.

When Jo saw the arch of the « Arc de Triomphe », she asked Henry

- are we on the Champs Élysées?

- Yes, we are! Our hotel shouldn't be far now but we need to get there.

The driver said

- le rond point de l'Étoile est le pire de tous. Je remercie le ciel à chaque fois que je sors entier de la et que je n'ai perdu aucun rétroviseur.

Henry laughed and Jo would gladly join but she didn't get it. Henry translated

- he said the Étoile roundabout is the worse of them all. And he's thanking god every time he can make it out of it alive and without any destroyed outside mirrors.

- Oh! Yes, that's quite the traffic out there. I mean how does that thing even work? We don't have that in the States

Henry shook his head

- just forget it! It's a European thing and they are not happy with it, trust me.

Once they made it out alive off the roundabout, the driver sighed with relief. He drove them for five more minutes and parked in front of a very chic hotel that made Jo blushed from head to toe because she didn't want to know how much Henry has paid for this.

- bon vous voila à bon port! Merci d'avoir choisi mon taxi. Normalement, je devrais vous demander 80 euros mais bon, vous venez d'arriver, alors je vous fais le trajet à 60, ça vous va?

Henry didn't mind to pay more, not like he couldn't afford it. He gave the driver one 50 euros and 10 euros and Jo wondered when did he changed his dollars.

- merci, beaucoup et à bientôt - Henry said with his usual English charm that Jo wondered if she wasn't going to follow her mom's advice and tie Henry to the bed for the whole trip, and they would never leave that room ever. She shook her head « mind out off the gutter Martinez »

Jo held out Henry's arm and they walked toward the reception. The hotel's name was « Le collectionneur ».

Jo got that one and couldn't help but giggled.

Henry announced their names when they reached the reception. They were very polite and charming. Jo heard you had to do a lot to make a Parisian laugh or even smile, or worse, talking to you.

When they took the elevator, she confessed that to Henry

- I thought the Parisians weren't very much... I mean, they're pretty much on their person. We got a very warm welcome there and even people to carry our luggage.

Henry laughed

- well! Considering the type of hotel and the kind of customers who are staying here, they better be polite and warm. But you have a point, not all of them are like that so don't be too much surprised if they never pay attention to us if we're asking something or if they're not even smiling.

- duly noted!

The room service already took care of their luggage and they were resting in their room, a spectacular room.

Jo's jaw dropped open when she walked in.

- oh, my god! This is fabulous

It wasn't an enormous room despite what she thought but it was as much as big as a one person studio. It was enough for the two of them and it was very very luxurious.

The bed was a king size and the sheets were so soft and well maintained. The floor was full of carpeting, the room had an HD screen plasma. There were a desk and a small couch in the corner of the room and the bathroom near the entrance. Before taking a look at it, Jo opened the curtains and nothing else than the Eiffel Tower dressed in front of them. There was a balcony and a table outside and all the sudden, the detective felt emotional.

- this is amazing! I'm pretty sure I won't believe I'm here until we're back to New York. It's even more than I expected. That room is simply delicious and that view. Henry, you surely know how to please a woman.

She stepped on the balcony and took a deep breath, closing her eyes to enjoy the moment. They were also pretty lucky, for once, the weather was more than nice and the temperatures were almost summer like.

Henry had watched Jo getting excited over the room and the view and his heart melted much more. How long since he had felt that way with a woman? Too long for him to exactly remember what it was to have those stupid butterflies in his stomach.

He joined her and wrapped his arms around, from behind. She leaned into his embrace like her place always be written there and entwined her fingers with his.

- so we're really here now - she whispered, overwhelmed with emotion

- indeed we are! And I'll personally make sure you're going to enjoy those vacations as much as I will.

- as I said yesterday, as long as I'm with you, nothing matters more. You just made all my dreams came true and I can't wait to see what more you've got in your pocket.

She turned around, smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck before giving him a long sweet kiss on the lips.

- I will never cease to tell you how much I love you, Jo

- I hope you never do - she teased, smiling between his lips

They broke off their embrace and Jo walked toward the bathroom and nearly fainted when she discovered the beauty of it

- Henry! You're going to make me wanna marry you right away!

He wondered why so much excitation and laughed when he discovered the reason. The bathroom was so big and owned a tub Jacuzzi like and not even talking about the whole marble decoration.

Jo bit her lips and shared an obvious look with Henry

- it's big enough for two people to fit in that tub. I'm just saying.

She winked at him while walking in the bathroom. Henry was really tempted to join her but not yet. He closed the door and said

- Later Jo! I'll let you freshen up a bit. While you do that I'll take a walk downstairs and before I do, can I borrow your phone to send a text to Abe? He won't read it before waking up but just to tell him we're here.

Her emotional voice replied through the door

- yes yes! Go ahead! Imma stay a bit on that tub but it you're seeing I'm not out in one hour, you'll be allowed to walk in and wake me up because I need a nap.

Henry chuckled

- I understand! Don't worry!

He took her phone and smiled at the picture she was still using as her screen lock. He quickly looked for Abe's number and sent a text saying that they landed safe and were in their hotel room and would probably just take a walk today and not doing too much as they were jet lagged.

###

Despite everything, Henry said, Jo wanted to take a good tour of the city, or at least some bits of it.

So he happily obliged and they walked hand in hand mostly on the Champs Élysées, as they were located near it. Henry promised Jo they would visit the Eiffel Tower around the weekend and they would have to buy metro's tickets if they wanted to travel all along the city.

Henry was so happy to see Jo being so amazed at everything she was seeing on the Champs. And he had to laugh every time she was looking through a shop's window and nearly screaming with the prices.

So they really didn't see the day go by and at the end of it, hours before they stopped on a restaurant for dinner, they stopped at a coffee and Jo basically dropped her whole body on the chair

- Oh my god! This is only the first day and I can hardly feel my feet anymore. I mean we only walked all along the Champs Élysées so what the hell?

- well, this what it takes to be in Paris darling, and plus we are a bit tired with the jet lag so it's not helping but I assure you, it's perfectly normal.

She sighed and looked at the busy street in front of them while a waitress came to take their order. Jo was obviously too tired to say anything so Henry ordered a delicious ice coffee for the both of them.

- so you were right! - Jo said

Henry frowned

- about what?

- when you told me about wandering the streets until we're so terribly weak and have no choice but to stop at the nearest café. Here we are, we did it. And I guess we'll get the one or two glasses of wine tonight for dinner.

Henry's eyes widened and Jo teased him

- what is it doctor Morgan? Did you lose your tongue?

He gave her one-megawatt smile and replied

- I had no idea you remembered all of that.

- Henry! The day you told me about getting lost in Paris, it has been stuck in my memory and I won't ever forget those words because they are the reasons I came back to you later.

- I am glad then - he said while giving her a peck on the lips

The waitress came back with their iced coffee and two straws. Jo couldn't help but laugh

- look at us! Sharing a coffee like the two idiots in love we are. I feel like we're a part of « The Lady & The Tramp » right now.

Obviously, Henry didn't get the reference, everything 20th century related was way too young for him.

- what?

She figured he wouldn't understand. She just shook her head

- nothing! Just a silly Disney reference. Let's drink that coffee.

The week has gone pretty much quickly. Henry had taken Jo almost everywhere in Paris, everywhere he knew and remembered. He never hesitated to share some history and even sometimes she didn't care at all, she couldn't resist at that face when he was talking about it. He was so passionate.

He indeed had taken her to the Eiffel Tower and they climbed at the very top, having a full view of Paris.

Jo never said a word out there, she was so amazed by everything she was witnessing. All she remembered was to lean against Henry's chest and taking some selfies along with it.

Henry took her to do some shopping and mostly paid for everything even she insisted for him not to do so. They saw every touristic attraction, like the Sacré Coeur, the Montparnasse Tower, Notre Dame and they were walking a lot, so they had to stop somewhere every time and Jo never been that happier. They were indeed getting lost, they had walk one night all along the Seine to get back to their hotel because they had missed the last metro. They remembered how much they laughed that night because not only they were basically alone on the empty streets but also it had started raining and they were back at the hotel completely soaking wet.

That night they also took a warm bubble bath together and relaxed, not giving a damn about anything else.

They hadn't touched each other yet, Henry was a very patient man but Jo wasn't and the trip was coming to an end.

A couple of nights before they left, Henry had gone to the reception to book an entire day to take a tour on the Seine by boat.

The hotel was organizing some tours or recommending the best activities to do and Jo had picked that one.

- Jo! It's done, I went to booked our boat tour for tomorrow, we'll be leaving at... 10.. - his eyes grew wide at the view Jo was giving him when he stepped into the room.

She was putting some candles all along the room and she was wearing a very nice velvet robe, so much that Henry gulped.

She smiled when she saw him

- hey! Glad to hear you booked the trip for tomorrow! We'll be having fun.

Henry quickly closed the door he left open and slowly walked into the room, feeling like only his legs were carrying him toward her, his brain was frozen.

- wh... Where did you get that robe? It seems very... French.

She grinned

- because it is! I bought it in one of the Champs Élysée's store, yesterday after we came back from the Arc de Triomphe when you were using a phone booth to call Abe. I quickly disappeared in the nearest lingerie shop to buy that.

Henry looked at the robe, he didn't know if he even cared about it or only to remove it from his beautiful girlfriend.

- Jo... That must have been expensive

She shrugged

- you know, I'm not the kind of woman who's using her money to buy a ton of clothes and really Henry, for once in my life I can give myself that pleasure, but just so you know I won't do that for anyone.

Henry kept walking toward her and stopped barely an inch away from her lips. She lovingly stared at him and moved her hand to his chest. Henry felt like he couldn't control his own body anymore and his own hands went to rest on her shoulders and started to slowly removed one sleeve. He looked around. Jo really put a romantic ambiance in that room, even in the smell and she turned off the lights just enough for them to look at the other.

He also noticed the window was opened and the Eiffel Tower was illuminating both of their silhouettes. This was indeed, very romantic.

He looked back at her

- you did all that on purpose right?

She blushed and nodded

- I guess, with the whole Paris thing, I wanted us to have a special moment for a special night. I know you're a man with high standards but honestly, my body can't really wait for you any longer. I love you and I need you, Henry.

Henry didn't exactly plan to wait forever to do the do with her and he also wanted something romantic but she read his thoughts. He leaned his forehead against hers.

- and I need you too, Jo. We can be one and one tonight

Jo closed her eyes and whispered

- and we will be forever!

Henry slowly crashed his lips on hers and removed the other sleeve, feeling her naked shoulders. Jo did the same with his suit, basically ripping off all the buttons, she hated he had so many clothes but she quickly found her way toward his naked chest and when her right hand rubbed his scar, she broke the kiss to touch it and looked at it.

- does it hurt? - she whispered with a voice she could barely recognize as her own

Henry didn't feel like it was him as well

- not anymore - he said while putting his hand on top of hers.

Henry was now shirtless and she felt her robe dropped to her ankles and she was now fully exposed to him. She planned the moment and was as naked as the day she was born.

She saw Henry blushed and couldn't help but found that utterly adorable. 236 years Henry Morgan was still blushing facing a naked woman.

He babbled

- you are... You're just so beautiful Jo.

- that's why you're blushing.

- yes! I mean, I can only appreciate what I have in front of me.

She chuckled and shut him off with a kiss, putting her hands everywhere on him, until she was finally able to unzip his pants and removing his slacks and undies, all together.

She felt him against her and bit her lips, as he moved out her hair where he kissed her from her jawline all along her neck and from now on she couldn't hold any moans that were escaping her lips.

He lifted her up because they both felt like they wouldn't hold it very much longer just standing and kissing.

She wrapped her legs around his middle and they stumbled on the bed. Henry quickly moved his body on top of Jo's and got back to his previous task where he was covering her neck with kisses, he untangled his hand on her hair, while she closed her eyes, enjoying that sweet and hot torture.

Obviously, having 200 years of sex experience gave Henry some attributes and he knew what to do with that mouth of his.

Jo got a hold of his hair while she spread her legs wider for him to find his way inside of her but before getting there he kept teasing her, he kissed the valley between her breast till he reached her belly button and she felt her body quickened. She wouldn't last long if he was playing like that. He gave a chaste kiss between her thighs and moved back on top of her where Jo could feel him adjusting himself to slowly slide for one long passionate ride that would probably last all night long. He looked at her straight in the eye, she never felt so loved in a while and just smiled, he smiled back and kissed her and he was there, he slowly thrust once but the passion built them up and when he thrust another time, it was Jo's little and sweet moans that sent him long way out, he was gone and so was she. They were both completely literally lost in some other galaxy or dimension, whatsoever but their soul was bonded they bodies were joined and they were anywhere but just not where they were supposed to be at the moment. They were losing each other in a perfectly agonizing ballet, in that moment, in that passion, they were no ones, they were just two souls bonding with the other, loving the other, two lost souls who found their way to the other, two lost souls who were finally together. The long wait was overdue but it was completely worth it. Every time their bodies moved with the friction the connexion was creating, they could hear themselves gasped all over again with wild pleasure and wonder.

Jo dug her nails into Henry's back and every time he was thrusting into her she was falling all over again in an ecstatic burning, completely lost and unmade.

At a point, she wanted to take over and she did, she climbed on top of him and let herself slowly sank down on him, leaning both of her hands on his chest, looking at him in a complete awe and whispering love words to him.

She did as he did and kissed his neck letting her tongue ran all along his abdomen toward his stomach and kissed that part and he completely lost it, blowing her name, caressing her back.

He sat up and drew her back to him. She took a sit on his lap, wrapped her arms around his neck as he slowly bit on her lips and kissed her chin, his hands still entangled in her hair.

This was the last phase and they knew it, they could feel the fire burning between their thighs and Henry started speeding up on his movements.

Jo clasped her legs tight around him and when she felt her walls contracted, she let out a huge moan and they both came together and she fell back on top of him, both of them completely breathless.

Henry looked at the ceiling and he could hardly hide how happy he was, Jo started drawing circles on his chest as she felt his hands caressing her naked back.

- that was completely marvelous!

They looked at each other and laughed

- this was indeed! Jo, you showed me a whole new level of sex.

- it's about time you enter the modern age but I surely won't complain. Your 2 centuries old, helps you a lot.

Henry grinned

- never heard any complaints on that

She gently punched him

- so this happened. It had to but it feels good

- it did! And to much more to come

She shook her head

- you just a pervert

- and you love that pervert anyway

- I do!

She gave him a peck and snuggled against him and remembered her mother, not exactly the best time for and she rolled her eyes for having that thought.

- by the way, my mother called me before leaving and she really wants to meet you. She's been planning our relationship before I was even in love with you so...

- I will be glad to meet her.

- yeah... But I need to warn you, honey, she's really... You know the typical Spanish mother and she's probably going to embarrass you as much as she will embarrass me but I love her, she's fun and I hope everything will go well.

Henry just kissed her forehead

- have no worries! I'm certain everything will be perfectly fine.

Jo smiled and they quickly fell asleep.

The last few days were as good as the whole week. They literally had a blast and when it came to packing all over again they weren't really ready. They had too much of a good time to get back to the reality. They also except one or two days, had a wonderful weather and Jo hated to get back in America after all the good food they had here and she surely was taking some back home (especially the pastry).

On their way to the airport, they asked the driver to stop at the Eiffel Tower and waited for them, they promised to pay him extra. They quickly pay two tickets and climbed once again at the top of it.

Jo leaned on the barrier, Henry behind her back, his arms wrapped around her waist and both of them watching the sun going down behind the Montparnasse Tower, the sun rays lighting up the city as the buildings were starting to turn on their own lights.

Jo felt a tear at the corner of her eye, Henry leaned his cheek against her hair

- darling! We'll get back, I promise

- I know! It's just, we had such a blast, Henry! This was the best trip ever. You got me lost, you did everything you told me. This was far beyond my expectations and you kept it in your way, your romantic side that I love so much. And I'm ready to get back anytime.

Henry smiled and turned her toward him, slid one hand on her cheek, the other resting on her waist and he leaned on her to give her another sweet kiss with a breathtaking view behind them.

They got lost, they bonded and now more than ever they were ready to spend their life together. Forever.

Author's note: If you want to look up over Google "Le Rond-point de l'Étoile" you'll understand what I was talking about because that road is hell LOL
