Vincenzo: I Belong To You

Passione 12

I stop midway in the living room when I see Marcos wearing a business suit beside the grand piano waiting for me. I smiled at him and he did the same as he greeted me. "Are you going to babysit me this time?" tanong ko sa kanya and he shrugs his shoulders. Sabi kasi ni V si Damien ang makakasama ko as always. I'm just a little shock and happy at the same time when I see him. Kahit sandali lang kaming nagkakila, I feel like his a brother to me. 

"Well, Enzo is a bit pissed off but he'll get over it. I want to hang out with you kahit sandali lang. Let's go, I'm sure your hungry." 

"I'm famished Marco." I said with a giggle as we walk out from the suite... I sigh happily as we step down from the elevator and he guides me toward the le lobby restaurant which has a majestic feel to it. High ceiling with crystal chandeliers, gold trimmed chairs and tables, it's so classy and elegant. I see Enzo not far away with other men in business suits and he looks really serious. His face softens when he sees me and I give him a flying kiss which causes his lips to twitch. I heard Marcos chuckles as we walk to the terrace outside. It's a perfect day to eat outside since it's not even sunny. We sit on one of the vacant tables, a waiter appears, gives us some water and the menu. "Does V own this place too?" I ask as I scan the menu. I found out recently that the hotel I'm staying at Rome is owned by him.

"No, but he knows the owner... You like the place?" I smile and nod my head. Ngumiti lang siya at umorder na kami ng maraming food. "Looks like your really hungry." 

"I am! I could eat a whole chicken if I want to. Besides, european foods are really tasty." 

"I'm glad... How are you liking your vacation so far? We're not boring you right?" I laugh a little.

"No... I like your company." he nods his head. Natahimik kami sandali, then suddenly his face becomes serious. OMG! Is this the time that he'll threaten to kill me if I ever leave his bestfriend? Maybe hindi niya talaga ako gusto. Maybe he's obeserving me if I'm worth it.

"I admire your guts when you were attack at the mansion." natigilan ako. "I thought you would be packing your bags and left Lexine." I blink my eyes a few times and shrug my shoulders.

"I was gonna... But I realize that this is the life he's living in and I need to accept it. I mean I want to be a part of it, so I'll just get used to it. A graze on my arm won't make me run. Besides, who would take care of him when he's injured or something. I don't want to leave him like 5 years ago."

"I haven't thank you yet for saving him." I just nod my head. "You know with your mind set like that I assume that your going to stay with him." 

"I want to Marcos, but I do have a life in Los Angeles. We'll just have to work it out." 

"I'm not talking about just a mere relationship with him Lexine. By the look of things, he wants you to be with him in a more serious one. He's invested a lot for this, he's been searching for you for a long time and he won't let you go. A lot is at stake here. You can't go on keeping this a secret. He's an influencial and powerful businessman throughout the world and in no time they will find out who you are. We can't contain the people any longer, everybody who has seen you are very curious and in no time, this will blow over. People talk, they gossip and they want to know the woman who had captured the heart of the richest man in Europe." I sigh heavily. I know all this of course since I've begun digging about Enzo in the internet and he's really a powerful billionaire. I'm just not ready yet and want to stay in our own bubble just a little bit longer. I was about to answer him when the waiter comes with our food. I think I drooled a little when the food is place in front of us. Saglit kong nakalimutan ang pinag-uusapan namin when I take a huge bite of my angel pasta. I heard Marco chuckle and I pout at him. After drinking some fruit juice, nagsalita na ko.
