"Just a little more. Be careful " Giovani is trying to guide Valerie to her surprise, that he planned.
"Okay. We here" he moved his hands from over her eyes to reveal the massive yacht.
"What's this?" She asked.
"I bought you a yacht!" Her eyes widened and her signature smile appeared on her face.
"Oh my God, Gio. Why- you didn't have to!" She hugged him and he lifted her off her feet. Everyone around me was happy and excited, but I didn't seem to match the energy
"Valerie, I would do anything for you. You know I love you ."
"I love you too" a tear threatened to escape, but she wouldn't let it fall. I really wish I could hear her say those four words to me.
"This is sweet and all, but I'm ready to party!" Melodie screamed.
Everyone boarded the yacht and was immediately greeted but big bright beautiful lights. It was beautiful.
"Oh shit! Where the drinks at?" Chloe dragged Marcus in, looking for alcohol.
~~
The party is in full swing. The room was filled with a lot of rich people, who I am not familiar with. Everyone is having fun, but I'm having trouble relaxing. I'm with Kevin but, he's drunk out of his mind and I'm stuck, being sober
~~
"Can I get everyone's attention!" The music stopped and everyone's eyes were on Giovani.
"I would just like to say a few things about my beloved daughter here" he pointed to Val, now all eyes on her."I met her when she was like 15, she is smart, ambitious, hardworking and not to mention, stunning. She always knows what she wants and she will stop at nothing to get it. She's only five feet tall, but when she stands on her money, she's sky-high. Now she's 29, I feel like I'm getting old. She has an entire empire, that she built on her own, for herself. She has a boyfriend who, no matter how much I try to hate him, I just can't. He's perfect for her and I hate to admit it. I just wanted to say Happy birthday Valerie and I wish you, many more." Everyone started cheering as the music continued and Giovani moved to the rest of the party. Valerie gave him a little hug, then she brought her bottle of Hennessy back to her lips.
It's a relief to know that Giovani doesn't completely hate me.
~~
I'm outside, just taking in the ocean breeze. I needed a break from the crowd. I could only faintly hear the music from inside,  but it was peaceful enough.
It's crazy how, the other day I was kidnapped, luckily my kidnappers were too distracted to do anything to me but, it's still messed up how easily they got me.
And on top of that, I accidentally confessed my love for Valerie. I meant it, but really wished she said it back.
~~
Still, outside sipping on a drink, I felt the presence of another person. I turned about to see the love of my life standing behind me, with the cutest little smile on her face.
"Hey," she said coming up next to me.
"Hey," I said facing the ocean.
"What you doing outside by yourself?"
"Just thinking"
"Oh. Well I miss you"
"Really? You looked like you were having fun" I said.
"Yeah, but what wrong with missing the man I love"
I pause, for a second there, my heart stopped. I turned to face her.
"Wait. Did yo-"
"Yes. I love you Lorenzo "
"Say it again"
"I love you" she came closer, resting her hand on my chest. If we weren't at this party, I would tear off her dress right now and take her right here.
