157 157 At the Inn (1/2)
Gabriel sits up and kisses the back of her neck and sucks on the spot before he starts to let down her hair. He places the hair pieces to the side and smiled as her hair hung loosely on her back. ”Much better.” He started running his hands through her hair.
Kosuke attached both horses to the carriage. ”Young Master and Young Madam, we are ready to continue on our way now.”
Gabriel got up and held out his hand for Amelia to take and helped her up and walked to the carriage hand in hand and helped her inside before going back and collecting the blanket and basket. He got into the carriage and sat the basket down across from them and sat next to Amelia. ”The next stop will be our destination.” He moved her hair away from her face and saw the blush that was underneath,
”I am excited and nervous about the destination as I have never travelled I do not know what to expect.” She looked into his eyes, before looking away embarrassed.
”That is to be expected. We are actually going to a small village. There won't be anything fancy, but we will be staying ion the inn that is in town. There is a private hot spring that is connected to the room we will be in, and I had asked Subaru to let the owner know that we will be coming into town this weekend.” Gabriel finally tells her their destination.
”Oh! This is the same town that you found Kazuki and his family! Will I be able to meet the little girl That you helped make better?”
”Yes, Tomomi is the daughter of the innkeeper but if she is unwell then you will not be allowed to see her. I do not want you to come down with something while we are on our getaway.” Gabriel looks at Amelia hoping that she will agree to this.
”But of course, I do not want to get sick but meeting one of the children that you helped save would be nice. I will not do anything to compromise myself.” The carriage hits a bump and Amelia falls into Gabriel and her lips touch his.
Gabriel holds her and kisses her back even through it was an accidental kiss. He continues to hold her and looks into her eyes. ”I know that you did not mean to land in my embrace, but I am glad that you did.”
Slowly Amelia pulls back blushing, ”you are indeed a kissing fiend, but I do not hate it.” She lean in and kisses his cheek. ”I should take my next dose.”
Gabriel pulled out a blue paper and handed it to her. ”I have reworked the medicine. Let me know how it tastes and if it needs any adjustments.”
Amelia took the package and opened it up and looked at the powder that was now an orange-pink colour. She poured the powder into her mouth and swallowed. ”Oh wow! That isn't as bitter, there is still an aftertaste, but it tastes like strawberries.” She looked at the package smiling.
Amelia took the water, ”Thank you.” The powders makes my mouth dry, but I am okay with that as there is not a lot that can be done about that.” She drinks the water and sighs.
”You are right that there is not a lot to be done with that right now. If you want me to try and make a liquid, I am not against doing that for you.” He touches her cheek and then pulls her into his embrace. ”I will try to do anything that I can for you.”
”I know that you will Gabriel. For now this is a nice change. Liquid medicine can wait at least until I get used to this. There will be an issue if this goes on the market. Due to the taste there will be some people that might take too much.” Amelia thinks about it while hugging him back.
”I have thought that it could happen. I was more thinking that this could be for children. The harsh taste of the medicine would be hard for them to stomach. If it was a little sweeter than maybe they might be willing to take it.” Gabriel thinks for a moment before shaking his head.
