"I already am." She looked at me as I barely controlled myself. I wanted to kiss her. I wanted to hold her in my arms.
"So this is not good because?"
"Because you're killing me, Ce. I can't be around you without wanting you." She looked down.
"Liam, I wanted to-"
"Ciao bitches, aunt coming through." I looked back and saw Margo with Laura right behind her. "Oh shit."
"Aunt? Since when?" She looked around like she didn't know what to say.
"Well, I feel like an aunt to her so yeah," I smiled. "And what are you doing here, Martinelli?"
"I-"
"He kept me company, no big deal." she squeezed my hand as I turned to look at her. She was literally the most beautiful girl ever.
"Alright," Margo dropped a handful of snacks that included chocolate, chips and small tequila shots. "It's girls' time now, so I'll ask you to leave." I stood up but Celeste didn't let go of my hand.
"I wanted to talk to him." I furrowed my brows.
"Is it urgent?" Laura asked and laid down on the bed.
"Yea... you know what, never mind. We'll talk later." She looked up at me, making me smile. She let go of me before I went towards the door.
"Have a nice evening, ladies." I got out of the room and closed the door. The only question that was running in my mind was what she wanted to talk to me about.
I left the north wing and went to my bedroom. I walked in and closed the door behind me. I noticed a small white piece of paper on the bed. I walked to it and grabbed it. There was no name written and I thought that Celeste would have something to do with this. I opened the letter and my blood began to boil.
Be with her as much as you can because I'll get her back. I promise you that.

There was no way in hell that I'd give her away. Not even if were not together. She'll forever be mine even if I turn out to not be hers.
