ROSALIA

"Rosa" I heard Silvio say softly, shaking my shoulder. I groaned and opened my eyes, peaking at him.

"Yeah?" I asked groggily.

"We're here.. Do you want me to carry you up?" he asked and I shook my head instantly awake.
"I'm heavy, it's fine." I said stretching out. He shook his head and laughed.
"You're not but since you're already up." he said, taking a step back so I could get out.

I unbuckled my seat belt and stood up, my legs feeling shakey as I stretched. I looked around, my brows scrunching in confusion.

"Silvio where are we?" I asked. I thought he was taking me back with him to the estate, where Sophia would be.
"It's my pent house. I'm 19 Rosalia, I don't stay with my parents anymore." he answered as if it was suppose to be obvious.

I shook my head in shock looking at him. "Silvio I barely know you, I don't know where we are and you want me to stay with you?" I asked him incredulously.

He pretended to think for a second before nodding his head. "Yeah".

I looked at him, unable to believe it but he just rolled his eyes and took arm, pulling my to the elevator.
We took the elevator to the third floor of the apartment complex and I couldn't hell but look around in aw.

Silvio's appartement was, for lack of better terms, beautiful. I stood awkwardly by the door as he hung the jacket up on the rack before tossing his keys on the counter. He seemed so relaxed in his own environment while I was just following behind him.

"Follow me." he said before walking toward the steps. We came to the second floor and walked down to the last door. Silvio pushed the door open and gestured for me to go in first before following in behind me.

He set my bags on the floor beside the bed as I looked around. The room smelled like his cologne and I could tell almost instantly that this wasn't the guest bedroom.

"You can stay here for the night, the showers through that door. I'll be downstairs so you can just call if you need anything." he said and I immediately shook my head.

"No. Silvio, this is your room" I said my cheeks a little red at the thought of sleeping in his bed.

"Rosalia, just relax please. It's only for tonight... It's okay" Silvio said. I bit my lip nervously, unable to hide my anxiety from the entire situation.

I have never been so uncomfortable before, and I couldn't help but want to leave.
Silvio noticed my unease and sighed before walking towards me and giving me a hug.

"Rosa, I'm serious. Just relax, everything is okay." he said. I was stiff in his arms for the first few seconds, but I released a huge sigh and slowly relaxed, resting my head against his chest.

"It's your room for the night, okay? I'll be downstairs. Call me if you need me" he said and I nodded into his chest.

With that he left and closed the door behind him, leaving me all to myself. I groaned as I picked my up my bags and put them down on the bed. I rubbed my hands over my face.

I should have just stayed at home.

After another few seconds of regret, I grabbed my toiletry bag and headed to the bathroom.
I paused as I noticed all the male products placed along the wall of the huge shower.
