After my last encounter with Valentino, I decided to put some distance between us. I've been avoiding him since that afternoon in the office. Every time he would come over, I would stay in my room until he left or I'd avoid going to my dad's office completely.
I was going out with Lincoln today to pick up some stuff for the gala coming up so I was currently in the process of getting ready. I just let my hair stay in its natural curly state and looked for an outfit. After about fifteen minutes of getting ready, I descended down the stairs in my cropped graphic tee with some fitted jeans and my black converses.
My parents had left earlier to finish some last minute stuff for the party coming up, so I expected the house to be empty.
Unfortunately I was very wrong.
"What are you doing here?"
He turned around now allowing me to take in his entire appearance. His black tshirt clung to him like a glove which showed the perfect outline of his muscles. He matched it with some faded jeans and a gold chain that hung loosely around his neck.
I wonder how that chain would look swinging back and forth in my face as he-
"Finished staring principessa?"
He ran his long fingers through his hair and I swear it took everything in me not to moan. I wanna run my hands through his hair. He darted his tounge out to lick his full lips which involuntary caused me to bite mine.
I was still standing in the middle of the stairway so I made my way down to where he was.
"Why are you here Valentino?" I guess I wanted to be bold today.
"I told your dad I would take you to the shops you needed to go to." He smirked slightly now pushing his hands in his pockets.
"Well you dont have to, Lincoln is taking me." I said now pulling out my phone to call Lincoln.
Apparently he didn't like my response because when I looked up he was clenching the fuck out of his jaw.
"Call him and tell him that you changed your mind." He spoke darkly.
Yes sir- Why would I do that?
"No we already made these plans from lastnight. I'm not gonna just cancel them because you want-"
"Adelaine I'm taking you and that's final. Now call your fucking boy toy and tell him you changed your mind." He spoke a bit louder causing me to shiver a little.
Boy toy?
At this point I didn't feel like arguing with him anymore so I just rolled my eyes and shot Lincoln a text saying that he didn't need to come get me anymore.
"Happy?" I said with a bit of attitude and began to walk to the door.
I heard a grunt of approval and assumed he was following behind me.
Of course my clumsy ass decided to slip on the step while walking out the door. I closed my eyes and braced myself to meet the floor, but instead I felt strong arms wrap around my waist and steady me back on my feet. I opened my eyes realizing that my ass was completely pressed up against him. I froze not knowing what to do.
"Fanculo." I heard Valentino grunt lowly before releasing my waist.
I shook off what just happened and continued to walk to his black mercedes. Right as I was about to open the door to get in, I heard a grunt from behind me which caused me to turn around. Valentino stepped in front of me and opened the passenger door while waiting for me to get in.
Awww.
"Thank you." I stuttered out while getting inside of the car.
He made sure I was in then closed the door and walked over to his side getting in.
Inside his car was gorgeous. It fit his personality perfectly with the dark leather seats and the neat jet black interior.
Someone's in their goth phase.
"Where do you wanna go first tesora?"
Don't blush. Don't blush. Don't blush.
He looked over at me for my response and I cursed the red hue that spread across my cheeks.
I kept my eyes downcast as I gave him a location for the store that my mom recommended and he chuckled deeply before driving.
The radio played lowly and I looked out the window while I hummed to the song I knew by heart. I didn't realize I was humming loud enough for him to hear, but I guess I was because he slightly turned to me with a puzzled look.
"You sing?" He asked with genuine curiosity.
"Just a little bit." I whisper shyly while trying to control my cheeks from blowing up.
I loved to sing when I was younger and when I got a bit older, I discovered that I was actually good at it so it just became something I often did.
"Proprio quando pensavo che non potevi stare meglio." He said more to himself than to me.
(Translation: "Just when I thought you couldn't get better.")I was gonna ask him what it meant, but I decided to keep quiet and look out the window.
I might of still been a bit mad about what happened at my dad's office.

We were now in the shop walking through the aisles looking for decorations. Valentino walked closely behind me which would make him buck up into me when i stopped suddenly.
I mean I wasn't complaining.
" Do you even know what you're looking for?" He asked now looking at me.
No that's why I'm looking at Pinterest.
"Uhh yeah I was going for something like this." I said and put my phone up to his face so he could see my decoration board.
Right as he was looking at my phone, I got a notification telling me that I had a text message. Valentino's face morphed into one of anger and he mumbled something about needing to make a call before wandering down the aisle. I looked at my phone to see who messaged me and saw Lincoln's contact.
Why was he angry?
I messaged Lincoln back and told him I was with Valentino and that I'll explain everything later before waking down the aisle to catch up with Valentino.
I found him in another aisle on the phone and I stood there waiting for him to finish his conversation. He hung up with whoever he was speaking to and looked at me.
"Why'd you storm off?" I asked him genuinely confused.
"I told you I had to make a call." He said with a bit of annoyance.
"Whatever. If you're gonna have an attitude you can leave, I didn't ask to come with you anyway." I replied just as annoyed as I turned on my heals to walk away.
Just as I was about to walk off he gripped my arm and turned me around, now having my back against the shelf.
"You're pretty when you're mad." He said with a glint in his eyes, looking over my face.
My lips parted and my heart started beating a bit faster. He has such an effect on me and I love it, crave it even.
He reached his thumb up to remove my teeth from my lip which I didn't even know I was biting causing me to let out a low moan.
His eyes filled with lust and he yanked the shopping basket I was holding out of my hand and put it on the floor before dragging me along with him.
"Where are we going?" I asked confused.
He just kept pulling me along with him until we were out of the store and back in his car.
