Aline pov

I traced his abs with my fingers with a huge smile plastered on my lips, I can't believe we finally made love. I don't regret it at all infact I want to do more and more with him only. I think I've fallen head over heels for this man next to me, does he feels thesame? Love isn't found in my world....Oh he did say that.

I took time watching him sleep so soundly. Breathing in and out, God he's hella gorgeous! I don't think I can ever be attracted to any man as I do Marquez. He just has this effect on me not even Mr Rodriquez come close. I brushed his hair off his face,

"Either you really end up loving me or hate loving me Marquez". I muttered to him and giggled like an high schooler.

I wish this moment between us will never end. Honestly, I wish we can stay in spain longer, I want to spent more and more time with him.....it always seems time stop whenever I'm with Marquez.

He started coughing and I quickly wore back my clothes and went out to get some water for him. I came back with a filled jar and a glass of water but Marquez was shivering instead, it was like he suddenly caught a cold or a fever.

I closed the windows and wrapped more sheets around him and he shivered more, it's not cold then....he let out a small sigh and stopped then started ranting some words without opening his eyes.

I was shocked. Shivers ran through my spine, I didn't know what to do either- it seems he's having a terrible nightmare.

"M-marquez?", I tapped him and he groaned loudly like he was hit hard with a stick, beads of sweat ran on his forehead.

"I can't.....I can't.....I can't....",

I pulled him closer to me, he was so hot I became so terrified. How am I to wake him up from this state? I've never been in this position before.

"You can't what Marquez?.....wake up please!.... it's just a dream".

His eyes was still shut closed as he tossed and turned and suddenly screamed, tears fell from the corner of his eyes....he jumped and pushed me down to the bed with his hands around my neck. His weight on top of me weakened me instantly.

He opened his teary eyes putting more efforts in strangling me, I laid there starring at him terrified. I knew not to try wake him up again because it would only scare him more in that state of mind and make his reaction worse.

"A-A-Aline?".

I gently nodded. "It's me. Aline".

As if lightening strucked him, he retreated his hands and climbed off me. He stared at his two hands horrified, he's having an afterneath.

"Marquez it's okay......",

I sat up moving close to him, he quickly moved away from me like I was a disease. "It's just a dream..... it's not your reality".

"Get out".

I didn't hear him properly. "What?".

"Get out".

I ignored his command. "Are you okay?Do you need something?".

"Get out".

"Listen to me Marquez, it's going to be fine.....what do you need?".

"I need you to get out!!!". He yelled.

I was in shock. This was the first he's yelling really hard at me,

"Please for your sake, I need you to leave me alone Aline". He pleaded.

"Fine!". I angrily stood up, wore back my clothes and left his room slamming the door on my way out.

He has no right to tell me to leave! I'm only trying to help him out here! I'm trying my best to understand him even though I almost died in his hands! I should be the one yelling at him instead!!

I laid on my bed cuddling myself with hot tears in my eyes, that was so scary......I was hella scared not for me but for Marquez. God is this what he goes through every night? Is that the reason he didn't want to share a room with me in the first place? Oh God if only I'd just listened and slept in my own room then I wouldn't have had to see him like that.

It pains me so much that a man like Marquez Fernandéz can go through so much in the middle of the night. Who did this to him? Who hurts him this much?and to this extent he can't even sleep peacefully? How does he cope going through this ordeal?

I can't believe I'm crying for him. It's just so sad. I really want to help him in any way I can....if he lets me

***********

I silently yawned to see the sun shone bright at me, my bed was wet with tears from last night. I literally cried my eyes to sleep last night, I cried for him....is that how much I care for him?

"You're awake".

The voice was at my doorway, he leaned at the door with his muscular arms folded gazing down at me. I didn't jump out of surprise seeing him this time around,

I can't even ask how his night was...

"Good morning". I mutter.

"My car will be ready in the next minute, get ready". He said abruptly and turned to leave.

"Get ready?".

"We're going back to Brazil". He answered and left not sparing me another glance.

Oh how could I forget?we only plan to spend three days here anyway so I shouldn't be disappointed. I really wanted to stay here longer though.....and why's he giving me attitude?

I sighed and took my morning bath, wore a new fit and let down my hair. I joined him outside with Joe, the car was ready to depart.

"When will you be visiting again Miss Aline?". He asked me with a smile.

I glanced at Marquez hoping he would reply but he paid us no attention so I faced Joe, "I don't know yet Joe".

"I see goodbye then Miss Aline".

"Goodbye".

I entered the car with Marquez and finally left the condo. My time here was well spent, I truly enjoyed my stay with Marquez. I wish I can come back here again.

Marquez didn't say a word to me. He was busy with his file and didn't even look at me once. What's wrong with him? I gently touched his hand hoping for a reaction,

"What is it?". He was sharp when he asked like he wanted to rid of me.

Oh no.....is he already tired of me?

after we've slept together?

"You're ignoring me Marquez, if it's about last night-",

"Let's not see each other again- well after this departure of course". He stared at me and all I could see is coldness in his green eyes. There was not even a ounce of emotions on his face.

"W-what?".

"You heard me".

I blinked away the tears already forming in my eyes, "You said you....crave for me".

"That I shouldn't have said, I apologize for misleading you and getting your hopes up". He remarked subtly, "It was just an attraction and a mere fling, nothing else for me".

Embarrassment washed over me especially since I know we've an audience too- the male driver who pretended not to pay us any attention but I'm sure he heard it all.

"You're a dick!". I snapped and turned my face away in tears.

Oh God this is so painful than I would admit..
