Enzo the most dangerous mafia are ready to take me, he willing to marry me, I never experienced this before and still be careful with anything that happened.
"Nicole."
"Yes?" I said, I feels afraid with anything that will happen
"What do you think of my new suit?" He asked, looking handsome in the black tie with red dress shirt and black pants that make his eyes glint with a mysterious dark light. His hair is styled to perfection as if it was done by an artist himself.
Even though my heart beating fast I managed to answer him, "it suits you very well." It looked great on him, but what really caught my attention. It's like he have been transformed into someone else.
Someone not a person, but something completely different from before. I can feel my heart is filled with excitement when I saw him like that.
"Really?" He look down at himself, his face blushing. A smile spread across his lips, I think about how beautiful he looks right now. This time he put his head down and walk towards me, he hold both of my hand and gently kiss my cheek.
The warmth of his lips made my whole body melt and I just want more. He always know what to say to make me happy even when we are apart. He is really an amazing boyfriend.
"Thank you. You look beautiful too." He said with a loving smile, his face getting closer to mine, I could feel his warm breath coming near me. My heartbeat started to accelerate. I'm getting nervous.
What is he thinking! Does he know that I'm feeling nervous! I don't know if I should push him away or if I should keep waiting for him to give the next move. And then, there was another thing.
His hand was still holding mine, and I could feel his hot breath coming near my neck.
Suddenly the kiss broke and he pulled back, looking directly at me. I look at him with confused expression on my face. Then he said something unexpected again, "I love you Nicole,"
My mouth open in shock and disbelief, I felt the blood rushing to my cheeks, my heart almost jump out of my chest and my face turning beet red. Did he..did he just...
He did? I thought he doesn't want me anymore. I thought that maybe I was nothing compared to his past girlfriends... That maybe I wasn't important enough to him.
But then why would he say all of these things?! How is it possible that he feel the same way as me? No one ever loved me like him, no one ever wanted to spend their life with me. I am only a nobody that no one wants to bother to care about.
I have no worth, no place to belong to anyone. There is no possibility of happiness that is not only mine but also for others. I'm always alone.
Why is he saying all of this? Is it because he really loved me once? Or maybe just to distract me from the pain that I have been living through all of my life. Is this true? Maybe it isn't true..but it feels so nice hearing those words coming from his mouth.
I smiled at him and hugged him tightly, burying my head on his shoulder while I tried to control myself from crying.
I knew he will understand why I'm crying. He always know how to cheer me up when I cried.
I closed my eyes and enjoy the hug for as long as I can. When I feel that the embrace is getting too tight, I opened my eyes slowly, and then he pull back slightly and look straight into my eyes.
His eyes were shining with pure joy, happiness, love... Everything I wish for every night before sleep.
"I love you too," I whispered softly as I kissed his forehead gently. His smile widen and I could see how his dimples showing, I felt my heart melting a little.
I know he loves me... I know he loves me! This makes me so happy that I can't contain myself any longer and I start crying harder than before.
After my crying stopped, his lips found mine and we continue kissing passionately. After a few minutes of kissing, I pull away to catch my breath.
He kept leaning his forehead against mine, his hands on my waist, and his fingers lightly playing with my skin. He smiles at me lovingly and said
"You're so beautiful you make my heart beat faster."
He is really an amazing boyfriend. I couldn't help but feel butterflies in my stomach. I never knew that feeling.
Ever since my mother's death I've been lonely and depressed. No one cares enough about me, except my grandfather who always treat me like a child.
He always act like everything is fine and that I'm just being silly. That's why I was trying to escape from there. If I stay here, I'll be just another burden for him.
I don't want to cause any harm for him. I just wanted to be free. I was so focused on escaping, that I forgot about everyone else.
About what it means to be happy. What it means to have someone love you unconditionally. To have someone take care of you. I was so focused on escaping, that I didn't even realize that I'm still alive and breathing.
I wonder if people really care about me. Or is it just a lie my father told me? All of my life people lie and deceive me. They tell me that they love me, but then leave me alone when I need them.
Sometimes they even hurt me. My whole life I've been running away from all of the things that hurts me. I didn't realize that I am actually trapped inside of the walls. I was finally given freedom after so many years of being locked.
And now I am going to let it slip through my fingertips. I don't want to lose everything I fought so hard for. Not after all that I have gone through.
