"So, one day will you take me to The Dominican and Peru?" He asked as he laid together in the dark. We've been here for 4 days now and it's not that bad anymore, I haven't fully talked with Giovanni and I'm completely okay with that, I don't care about Christina, Everyone else loves me and I enjoyed the love. His family and his friends are really cool
"Yea one day" I told him. I was laying on his chest, I didn't want to he but he insisted I lay on his chest. I've just been thinking a lot lately about our relationship and it just-
"I can literally hear the gears spinning in your head" he chuckled and slightly rubbed my back where his hand was rested "what are you thinking about?"
"Us"
"Us? What about us?"
"I don't know. I just, I haven't been so close to a guy like you in a while" that kinda came out wrong I think
"A guy like me? What's that's supposed to mean?"
"I mean, you have everything going for you already, you have your business to take care of and you care so much about me and your family and friends. Why are you with me? I'm just holding you back from doing what you have to do" I let out, I've been wondering that for a long time. He had his business to focus on and I'm just in the way
"Your not holding me back from anything. I choose you to do this, I put you here and I can handle it"
"But why me? I still don't understand why you picked me out of everyone at that club that night"
"Because everyone at that club they weren't you, they weren't what I was looking for, you are what I am looking for" that was sweet and it made my heart tingle
"But I'm not that speci-"
"No buts, listen to me Serena. You are the most beautiful, sexy, intelligent, kind hearted, amazing woman that I know, besides my mom, you are everything that I look for in a woman, those other girls at the club aren't what I wanted and they were sluts. You were throwing yourself at me and you just caught my attention" I blushed and smiled a little. He makes me feel so happy inside
"I don't believe you" was the first thing that came out of my mouth by mistake
"You don't believe me?" He asked shocked
"I just find it hard to believe that I'm what you went. I'm boring, I'm an average girl that has her walls up to everyone that she meets, I'm annoying and mean sometimes. This shouldn't be what you want" he moved so that he looked at me and lifted my chin so I was looking at him
"And I love that about you, you can be annoying, and yes you are mean sometimes, but that's what makes you perfect to me. You are everything but boring, and an average girl to me. You have your walls up because of something some assholes did to you and it's okay to have your walls up. I did also, but than I stopped caring" wow "You better believe that you are what I'm looking for, I need a fierce woman, with attitude, who is mean and annoying sometimes, nothing but average and boring. Sexy, beautiful, stunning, gorgeous and everything else there is like that" he told me. I was stunned, I didn't know he felt this way about me. I mean I knew he liked me but-
I didn't know what to say but sighed
"I love you" he whispered. My eyes went wide and I tensed "you don't need to say it back until your ready, relax" he started rubbing my back. I just started laughing. I do this when I'm in an awkward position as I sat up and he started laughing to
"Your so weird" I told him as he laughed and pulled me back into his arms as he kissed my forehead
"Goodnight Serena"
"Goodnight Spencer"
••
I woke up to an empty bed. A rush of disappointment ran threw my body but it was washes away. I got up and walked to the bathroom to see a sticky note on the mirror
You look beautiful
I smiled and took the note down placing it on the bathroom as I did my everyday routine
I got myself together and walked downstairs. I walked into the dinning room and Spencer was gone
"Good morning Serena" Nicole said smiling
"Good morning" I smiled back at her. She really is a genuinely nice person
"Please sit" I did as told and sat down
"So, we never really got to sit down and chat" she said chuckling as the chief brought us our food. We thanked him
"Yea I know"
"You know my son is very much in love with you?" She asked. I swallowed my food and chucked "I'm serious, he's never been in love, well except that other bitch that broke my baby's heart" she said shaking her head "he never brings girls around me, the way he defends fly and the way he looks at you I as a mother can see when he's in love and he is definitely in love" she told me as I sighed
"I mean, I've never actually been in love before. I thought I was in love with my ex but" I looked and shook my head not tying to think about it right now
"That happened to me with Spencer's father" she told me "gosh that mans an asshole, the way he talked to you was totally unacceptable. He has a hard time letting people in, than there is me who opens up for everyone. Spencer is jut like both of us, he can just shut down or he can be acceptable" she told me as I nodded
"I see that" as we laughed "where'd he go?" I asked
"Well, whenever he comes to visit that's when they go on the yacht for the day" she told me as I nodded. They really must have a lot of money
"So what's your story?"
"My story is, I feel in love with an Italian when I was 16 years old. I should have known to move on because he already had a son, which is Tucker and he was 2 at the time. We were fucked up kids back than, only had sex to boast about having sex. That's how I got pregnant with my baby Spencer, my mom wouldn't let me raise him in her house and Giovanni said there was no room for both of us because of Tucker and Christina. So I made Spencer move in with them because I had no where to go with him"
