Heirs | On Hold

chapter 9

A R I A C A S T R O

As soon he did kiss me, I was in a different world. I straddled him as wrapped his arm around my waist and the other was holding my ass as he carried me and we layed down in my bed.

His lips hadn't left mine and his hands were all over my body.
Giovanni pulled back and then kissed my neck. Multiple times. Licking, kissing, sucking making me moan.

"Shh....I should be the only one who hears these pretty little moans babygirl. Only me!" He teased me as he sucked on the hickey that he had given me.

"My turn!"

I flipped is over as Giovanni huffed.
"You are so beautiful!"
"Shh!!"
I kissed him as he held on my waist as we kissed roughly.

I had never imagined my kiss with Giovanni as sweet and beautiful. I wanted it to be rough and hot. I craved him. Even before he left for Russia years back...we knew we were meant to be.

"Aria!!!" Mom's voice echoed through the intercom in my room making me and Giovanni jump apart.

"Fuck!!!"
"Shh....don't talk."

"Yes mama?"
"Come down for dinner and bring Giovanni with you...I saw his car in the driveway."
"Sure..."
"Thanks baby!"

"I should probably hide this or you'll get killed today..." I say as he nods.

I pick up my concealer and apply it on my neck, fix my make up and hair when two arms wrap around me.

"Giovanni...."

"Hmm..."

"Stop....we need to go!!"

"Let's go." He immediately let's go and walks out of my room leaving me confused. It was like something snapped him back and he regretted it. He regretted kissing me. What else could I even expect.

"What is happening in my life!!"

Once I walk into the kitchen I see mom amd Giovanni laughingly at something. It's weird to see them both getting along. Moments ago he walked out of my room ad if nothing happened between us. I felt like crying.

"Oh... she's here....let's have dinner it's your favourite. White sause pasta with garlic bread!!" Mom cheered as I gave her a half hearted smile.

I saw everyone sitting at the table eating happily. Even Giovanni. If he wants to play the game, I'm down. Just you wait Giovanni Romanov.

After dinner I help mom in the kitchen. Even if we have maids my mother insists them to leave early so they can have time with their family. So it's me and brothers helping her. Occasionally dad helps her as well.
Once I'm finished helping her I go into my room and lock the door. I grab a sweatshirt and shorts and change into them and finish my night routine. I open my instagram and scroll down when I decide to post something on my account.

Not to mention he had managed to make me feel bad but it was hard to forget the person who unknowingly stole your first kiss.

Two can play the game Giovanni Romanov. I'll never forget what you did. Here I was heartbroken because of what he did. There he might be having a great time celebrating his victory. Fuck you Giovanni. Fuck you for making me go insane.

The next morning I did my morning routine in the home gym instead of training with Giovanni. Because I was maybe too pissed off to see his face.

I ignored all his calls and messages since morning. Despite the anger I felt bad for him. I know he had feelings for me and did well to hide them. I know he is scared to love but that doesn't give him the reason to hurt me.

Leaving those thoughts behind I go get ready for the day. Feeling a bit bad-ass I decided to wear a blue high waisted jeans with a black crop top with a black leather jack some black ankle length boots. Damn. I did good.

I head downstairs and see everyone looking at me.
"Aria....are you okay? You never dress like this...is someone troubling you?"dad says suspiciously. He knows me too well.

"Nothing I'm totally fine. Just thought why not pull the total Mafia bad-ass look. Well I'm getting late. Zuko please can you drop me off and then head to practice?" I ask him as I take a sandwich from Azrael's plate making him grumble.

"Aria...you are willing to go with Zuko....you never do that!!?" He says as I roll my eyes.

"Stop rolling your eyes young lady!" Mom says as I smile at her.

"Well...you coming or should I walk or take the bus?" I ask him as he gets up following me to the garage.

We sit in his car as he starts to drive to the school.
"Make sure you make Giovanni pay for what he did." He says as I look at him in shock.

"What....I know about your little crush on my best friend since childhood and what happened at dinner proved something is wrong. I don't show it but I always have my eyes on you. So let him pay for what he did." He says as I nod and give him a hug making him grumble.

"Okay okay...you can go now. Br careful."
"Bye...love ya bro!"
"Just go you idiot!!" He says as I run to my locker.

I take my books and enter the class not glancing at Giovanni who eyes me up and down as I pass him and sit next to Natalia.

"You know...my brother is dumb. He is an idiot to let you go." She says as I nod sadly. I look over to him as he is flirting with some redhead who is blushing.
It should be me. I should be the one he should be flirting with. I keep on glancing at him throughout the class as he shamelessly flirts with her. I feel my heart breaking as I distract myself from the scene.

As soon as the class ends I pick up my stuff and dash out of the door not caring that I had pushed the redhead into the the tables making her cry. From my eyes I see Giovanni looking at me with guilt and sadness. Why cry over what you have already done Giovanni. Kyra makes sure to bump into Giovanni giving him a cold shoulder as she follows me out.

"You'll be okay. He knows he messed up Ari... please stop hurting yourself." She hugs me as I silently cry.

"Aria... Kyra..can I talk to her alone?" Giovanni asks as I look at him with anger.

"Im sorry... she don't interact with people who hurt her and yet don't give a damn about it." Kyra says as she drags me to our next class.

"Oh and Giovanni.. you and the redhead make a great couple...jut letting you know." I smile at him as he opens his mouth to speak but no words come out.

This is just the start Giovanni Romanov. There will be more to come for you.
