Giuliano

Chapter 52~Amelia

The place looks expensive, the people that are going in look like their made of money, there is a line to get in, so I'm guessing the place is good since their willing to stay outside in the cold just to get in and in their heels none the less.

"Mrs Giuliano," Nolan smirked and helped me out, "You have to stop calling me that," I said and he shrugged walking me to the entrance "Why would I when you get mad?" I shook my head with a small smile, the people are looking at me as I walked to the entrance with Nolan trailing behind, "Name?" the guy said by the door, "Giuliano," Nolan said from behind me and the dude went pale, "Mrs Giuliano," he stepped aside and bowed his head at me, he looks scared.

I walked in and immediately spotted Niko, he stands out, his black hair gelled back, his black button up with a few buttons undone that sticks to his body so well his muscles show and a manly necklace shows, His suit jacket is behind him resting on the chair.

All the ladies are looking at him, more like drooling over him.

I can see tom making jokes but Niko has a neutral face, I can see Tom's niece, he looks familiar, golden hair a little long than he turned to the side looking at something and that's when I realised...

It's Charles.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

I gasped, stopped walking and turned around, "What's wrong, Amelia?" Nolan asked, I walked back next to the entrance where he can't see me, I fished out my phone "Amelia," Nolan called out placing a hand on my shoulder, "Ssh," I shushed him and dialled Niko, he picked up "Hey Lia, is-" he started but I cut him off "Don't say my name," I rushed out, there was silence on the other line.

"I need you to come next to the entrance," I said looking at him and stretched out my hand, I can see him shake his head as he saw my hand "Coming," he hung up, "Can I know what's wrong?" Nolan asked, "I know Tom's niece," I said and from the corner of my eye I saw Niko making his way, but then saw Charles more clearly, he looks exactly the same, the same golden hair with the same light brown eyes.

He is looking at Niko as he walked over to me but luckily he can't actually see me so I grabbed Niko's hand and pulled him to me making him loose his balance, there aren't any people on this side of the restaurant and it seems like this side behind the big flower ornament that is in the middle of the ristorante that takes half the space. 

"What's the matter?" he asked "That dude, next to Tom," I started and he nodded "I know him," I whispered looking at Charles's back, "You know him? What do you mean?" Niko asked "He used to go to my school," I said, "What? So, you can meet a friend," he shrugged but I hit his chest "No, Niko, you don't know the gossip at that school, if they know I got married to a rich man they will think that I blew off school and became a freaking gold digger and if they find out it's arraigned they will pity me." 

I whispered-shouted, "Who cares?" Nolan asked "I care, I may not see them again but still, I can't imagine what they said when I left suddenly and men took my stuff out of my locker and my stuff, my project and art stuff," I said "I bet they said that I got knocked up," I shook my head and pinched the bridge of my nose "Lia, let's get through this dinner and if someone gives you a hard time tell me I'll take care of it."

I sighed and looked back at Charles's head, "Does Charles know you were waiting for me, your wife," Niko was about to say something but Nolan chuckled from beside Niko shutting him up, "Charles?" he asked with a humorous laugh, "I know," I said, "I don't know what Tom said to him but I didn't mention you yet," he said and I sighed "Ok, let's go," I made two steps before I stopped "You have my back right?" I asked Niko.

He smiled a small smile kissed my head and whispered "Always," I sighed and we walked with his hand resting on the small of my back as we approached the table. "Amelia," Tom said with a smile, I saw as Charles tensed and repeated my name under his breath than turned around.
