Lea's thoughts had wavered all throughout the flight, but when the captain came on the intercom to announce that the flight was beginning its decent into the Don Muang international airport her stomach flipped.
Should I stay with Alessio or go onto to Hanoi as planned...she closed her eyes and turned each scenario over in her mind. Why was it so hard she thought to herself...
As the airplane touched down with a slight thud, Lea turned to Alessio and holding his hand leaned in and thanked him for being so kind to her during the past 48 hours. Alessio smiled his magical smile, "il mio piacere bella" (my pleasure beautiful) he whispered as he looked deep into her eyes.
Oh my god Lea felt a moment of panic and indecision, he had to stop being so damn irresistible...
As the plane came to a stop, Lea stood to get her bag from the overhead compartment, but as quick as a flash Alessio had already retrieved it and placed it on the seat in front of her.
"I hope you find what you're looking for in Hanoi" Alessio said in his strongly accented english, Lea could do little but blush. The stewardess then began directing them down the stairs from the upper deck of the 747, and as they got to the bottom of the stairs Alessio turned and squared Lea's shoulders and said that if she changed her mind she could find him at the Hilton Hotel.
Lea blushed deeply and smiled, desperately trying to hold it together...
