Still in Italy😀 here I am tho 💋

After some time we got exhausted swimming for that long.

"I forgot to ask, but.. how did they let us in that easily?" I sat on the edge of the pool. "Well, I have some unfinished business with... the president. I'll tell you some other time." He sat next to me. "Sure.. so what's the time?" I asked him. "It's about 3pm." He told me. "Damn, I feel tired. Let's go get some towels." I stood up and so did he.

We got our towels from the room where the man in purple left us. We sat there to dry ourselves. "What will we do the rest of the day?" I looked at him. "What about going to a cafe or something? I wanna try the local deserts." He said while ruffling his wet hair with the towel. "Sure. That sounds great." I liked the idea. I too, wanted to try some desserts there.
After packing our stuff and putting our clothes back, we walked out of the room and began making our way to the front entrance. As we were walking, a servant hurried to us. "Excuse me for my disturbance. Here is a letter from the president for both of you. An.. invitation." He gave the letter to Diego. It had the president's wax seal stamp on it. It really was from the president.
We proceeded to walk out. "So what's that letter for? Let's open it!" I got excited. "Not yet, let's go back to our hotel room first." He calmly said. He didn't feel very excited...

Diego's pov:

"A letter?? What is this for now?" I was confused as to why he would send us both a letter..

A flashback from the day before.
"I see, I guess I approve. I'll say it again. If you want me to find out who is the traitor and give you the eye, you'll have to give me Manhattan island."     "Alright, It will be yours as long as you do what you promised. And about Y/N L/N, what will you do with her?"    "..For now I'll try keeping her out of this. I also don't want her knowing about it."     "Is she a stand user too?"      "...Why would you want to know."     "Well, it's strange that you are keeping her with you. She's a stand user, yes?"    "..I see that you already know.."

Back to the day the letter was received.

I made it clear, I didn't want her knowing about it. I was really starting to wonder what that "Invitation" was for. But I tried not thinking about this.
We still had about 5 minutes left of walking. That day was so nice. Being with her made me feel great. "Shit.. I totally lost control today." I reminded myself of when I got too impulsive and made Y/N uncomfortable. "I couldn't hold it back then." I felt embarrassed once again.
We finally arrived and got in our room. Y/N immediately fell on the bed. She sighed. "Its already 3pm isn't it.. Let's open the letter!" She got up. I'm always surprised at how fast she can change her mood. "..Sure." I left the bags and sat next to her. I carefully removed the seal and got out the paper inside. "Wow, it's so fancy." She got a closer look at it.

"Dear Y/N L/N and Diego Brando,
It is with a great pleasure that I, president Valentine, invite you to a formal dinner party. It will be hosted today at 8pm at my residence. There will be servants waiting for your arrival at the front gates. I'd love to spend some quality time with both of you. I'm looking forward to it.
Sincerely, Mr. Funny Valentine."

I read it out loud. In the end there was his signature. "Diner party?! Aren't we lucky? Meeting with the president of the United States. And you just bought me a new dress. We should definitely go!" She got excited. "Ehh- Whatever, why not. After all some nice free food." I sighed and left the letter beside me on the nightstand. "We have plenty of time till 8.. Want to take a nap?" Y/N asked. "Sure." I felt tired and in need for some rest too. I went to put the window blinds down to keep out light. I locked the door. When I turned around, Y/N was already snuggled up and sleeping. I lay next to her and hugged her from the back. After few minutes, I fell asleep too..
