Third P.O.V

"Romina sat in the chair getting the finishing touches of makeup put on her. Christine had braided her hair in spiral stitches and placed cute little jewels on her edges. Joseph sat behind her, getting his thick curly hair brushed back and slicked with gel. He stared at her intently through the mirror. She didn't notice him. Of course. But, then again she never did. Joseph could stare at her for hours if she'd let him. The mole by her right eye, the beauty mark at the corner of her lip and on the tip of her nose. He loved everything about her. And that was certain.

Something no one could ever take away from him. His love for his mina.

"So, birthday boy. Tell me how is it? You managed to get that bat out of hell to agree to this?"

"I convinced her with my smart wit and charms of course." He grinned at her as she smiled back though the mirror. Christine looked up from her phone to glance at the two. She smiled at their smiles. The way their eyes brightened up whenever the other one was in the room. And to think there was never a time she could recall, that they didn't want each other. Christine stood up and walked between the two blocking their view of each other. Seeing their smile fall made hers widen.

"It is time to show the world the wonderful love you have for each other. And in doing so, pissing us single people off" Christine smiled from ear to ear as Romina rolled her eyes. "You're acting like we're really engaged chris." Romina stated as a matter of factly, Joseph kept a tightlipped smile and went to her side. Holding his hand out to help her out of her chair. Romina was dressed in the most beautiful shade of emerald to complement her dark skin. The dress had puffy long sleeves and a loose bottom that flowed with her body as she moved, the top tightened around her bust making just the slightest bit of cleavage show. Courtesy of Mrs. Giordano.

"It's cute you still believe that mina." Christine winked, straightening her suit and clapping her hands." It's showtime people!"

Romina walked alongside Joseph, with her arms in his. The three of them made their way down the stairs. Christine in the front and those two in the back. She went first, knowing she wasn't what the press were here first, which gave her time to make last minute preparations for the walk through. Romina tensed up as lights flashed, Joseph could sense her mood change so he lightly squeezed her arms.

"At any given moment, if you want to leave" He whispers to her ear as she nods before looking at his eyes, staring back at him. "We leave '' She gave him a soft smile, lightly squeezing his hand as he nodded cautiously.

They walked hand in hand, smiling at the cameras as they slowly walked towards the entrance. "Give her a kiss" Someone said, Joseph smiled sheepishly and kissed her temple. Romina smiled and gritted her teeth. "You call that a kiss" She smiled, lightly slapping his chest.

She grabbed his face and kissed him. No it wasn't a fake kiss, but a real one. A kiss so real you could feel your insides churning at the thought of it going further than it actually did. Just one kiss, she thought. Joseph pulled away trying to hide the smile and shock on his face. His cheeks began to turn a red color. "After all these years I still make you blush" Romina teased, squeezing his cheek and walking up the stairs and entering the room, leaving him and the flashing lights behind.

"That woman will be the death of me" He muttered to himself before giving one finally wave, as he was about to enter the ball. Cassandra came out of nowhere and grabbed his shoulder. "Ladies and Gentlemen's, theys and thems allow me to introduce Joseph Giordano" she smiled at the camera as he gave the fakest smile he could.



Romina grabbed an orderve and made her way to Christine. "Damn, I can't lie, this place looks good as hell." She sighed as Christine looked over her shoulder and did a double look. She gasped, downing the glass of champagne and taking the half eaten orderve out of Romina's hand. Shoving it in her mouth.
