You Belong with Me

Part Two - Chapter Three: Holiday Surprises

Cristiano smiled as they walked into their hotel, his arm wrapped around Alexa who smiled back at him as the two of them walked to the reception; she was wearing a cami dress in Mexican Aztec print paired with black platform bow sandals.

“I have a reservation under Aveiro,” Cristiano said as he spoke with the receptionist, Alexa stared at the man behind the desk who hadn’t looked up yet; however when he did, she couldn’t stop the smile that formed on her face.

“Jacob?” Alexa asked surprised making the man look at her; he grinned recognising Alexa, while Cristiano looked at his girlfriend confused.

“Alex… how are you?” Jacob greeted as he moved to hug Alexa, Cristiano frowned as he watched the two interact as they talked; he didn’t like the man before him, there was something about him.

“I’m sorry… Cris, this is my ex-boyfriend Jacob… Jake, this is my boyfriend Cristiano,” Alexa said spotting the look on Cristiano’s face, it worsened when he realised that the two used to date.

Cristiano stared at the man before him; he didn’t like how Jacob stared at Alexa, Cristiano wrapped his arm possessively around his girlfriend.

“It’s nice to meet you,” Jacob said smiling at Cristiano, it un-nerved the footballer that her ex was like this; Jacob seemed complete different from him.

“So I’ll get you two checked in,” Jacob said when he realised that Cristiano was a little jealous of him and his past with Alexa; the blonde looked at her boyfriend whose glare was set on Jacob.

“Ahh here it is… Aveiro, you’re in room the Presidential suite,” Jacob said handing over the key card before Cristiano turned on his heel and stalked away; Alexa sighed as she smiled at Jacob, who looked a little worried at the thought of upsetting his guests.

Alexa felt a little sorry for the bell-boy, who had carried their bags to their room for them; she made sure to tip him extra as Cristiano disappeared into their bedroom.

Alexa waited until the bell-boy had left the room before she followed after her boyfriend; Alexa sighed it didn't take a genius to guess what had upset him.

Cristiano took a deep breath as he stood on the hotel balcony, he closed his eyes as he heard Alexa approaching him.

“You okay?” Alexa asked remembering what happened last time he got jealous, she wrapped her arms around Cristiano and kissed his shoulder as she rested her head against it; he didn’t like men that had any previous connection to her.

“Cris… me and Jacob, we finished a long, long time ago,” Alexa said softly moving to stand next to him, Cristiano glared at her and moved back into the hotel room.

Alexa followed after her boyfriend, closing the balcony door behind her if he had been easy on her last time then this time was going to be rough.

“He could never make you feel the way I could… I could give you the world and more,” Cristiano said looking at Alexa, who nodded at his words.

Alexa slowly approached her boyfriend and wrapped her arms around him; however he slammed her into the wall that was behind him before she could speak. Alexa groaned softly as she looked at him a little dazed.

“I’m going to screw you so hard nena,” Cristiano murmured as he brushed his lips against hers, Alexa panted as she realized what he had planned; Cristiano started to kiss down her neck as he remove her dress.

“Cris…” Alexa moan as he slipped his knee between her legs, brushing against her; she swallowed looking at her boyfriend who was busy leaving love bites on her neck, she loved it when he got jealous.

Alexa awoke next to Cristiano who was staring up at the ceiling, his arms around her waist holding her to him; she was surprised that he was awake right now.

“You want to talk about it?” Alexa softly, she was only too aware that her neck was littered with love bites, though she knew she’d left marks on his back in return.

Cristiano lay quietly not looking at her, Alexa sighed as she rested her head against his chest; closing her eyes she focused on his heartbeat.

“Why did you two break up?” Cristiano asked looking at Alexa, who opened her eyes confused as she looked at him; he sighed and rested his head back on the pillow.

“You and Jacob… what happened?” Cristiano asked, Alexa sat up and watched him; she stared at him wondering how long he had been thinking about this; Cristiano watched his girlfriend waiting for answers.

“I was a sophomore in High School, Jacob was a senior… when he graduated, we didn’t want a long distance relationship so we ended things,” Alexa said making Cristiano nod as he stared back at the ceiling.

That was what he was afraid of that their relationship hadn’t run its course and that Alexa still had feelings for her ex-boyfriend who was downstairs; Cristiano didn’t want to lose Alexa, she meant everything to him.

“You still care about him,” Cristiano said but it was more of a question, Alexa sighed knowing that what she was going to say would hurt him; but being honest would be the best thing right now.

“He was by first boyfriend,” Alexa admitted making Cristiano pull away from her, he sat up and took a deep breath, she hadn’t denied that she still felt for Jacob; Alexa sighed and cuddled Cristiano’s back.

“I love you Cris… I was the one that ended things with Jacob, I wouldn’t have risked walking away from my family for him like I did with you,” Alexa said making her boyfriend look at her.

Cristiano stared at her taking in what she had said, he knew that what she had done for him, what she was still doing for him had been a lot; she had left her entire life behind for him.

“I can’t lose you nena…” Cristiano said pulling her to him, Alexa kissed him softly as she rested her head against his; she sighed and closed her green eyes.

“I know… but I said I would stand by you and I will, I love you Cristiano,” Alexa said making Cristiano rest his head against hers; he knew that he had a lot to make up for how he had treated her the past week.

Plus with Jacob around, he was willing to show Alexa that he was the right man for her; that there was no competition on whom, she should be with.

Cristiano slowly started to kiss down her neck as they slowly fell back into bed; Alexa ran her fingers through his hair and sighed.

Jacob had been her boyfriend for two years before they had broken up and then she had ended up with Dixon for two years; neither relationship meant as much to her as the one she shared with Cristiano.

Alexa hoped that Cristiano believed her, she loved him more than anything and her feelings for Jacob had faded, plus she hadn’t even mentioned that Jacob was married yet to Cristiano.

“I love you so much,” Cristiano told her as he looked at her, he brushed some hair from her face and kissed her softly; the Portuguese wanted to be sure that he was the only man on her mind tonight.

“I love you too,” Alexa said, she didn’t know how things would play out in the future for them but she really hoped that they would last.
