Giovanni POV
"You can stay with me.."
"in my penthouse. I got 2 extra rooms but one of them i use for something. So you and Ari can stay in the other room.... Or you can sleep with me or whatever." I tell her, my hand still rubbing her thighs.
"Are you sure? Like i don't wanna-" I cut her off again. "I'm sure. And you're not gonna be a bother or anything, baby." I tell her, looking her in her eyes while rubbing small circles on her thigh.
She smiles a little, "you getting comfortable calling me that." She says, resting her head back on the window, closing her eyes.
That used to be the only thing I would call you..
but, you know, I can't say that, so I just laugh. "So, you gonna stay with me or what?" I ask her. She shakes her head 'yes'.
"Alright, tell me the hotel name so you guys can pick your stuff up." I say starting the car.
•••
I pull up in front of the hotel, "I didn't really unpack yet. So everything is still in the bag, I'll be down in a few." Imani says while getting out a car.
A couple of minutes later, arianna wakes up. "Gio... where's mommy?" She asks me. "She's inside, she's getting you guys things." I tell her, watching her rub the sleep out her eyes.
"B-but... don't we sleep here?" She asks me. "You and your mommy are gonna stay with me now until you guys go back home... are you ok with that?" I ask her.
She nods her head. She points to Imani's water bottle, "can I get some?" She asks me. I take the top off and give it to her. I see Imani coming out with her and arianna's bags, so i get out to help her.
"I got it. Get back in the car, beautiful." I take the bags out her hand. "Thank you." I put the bags in the trunk, then walk over to get in the driver side.
"You ready?" I ask Imani. She shakes her head. I drive off to my penthouse.
•••
I step out of my car after parking it in the parking lot. I grab Imani's and little Ari's bags while Imani is carrying little Ari.
We walk inside the building and walk inside the elevator. I press my floor number and the elevator starts to move, going up.
"How are you feeling?" Imani randomly asks me. I look at her confused as to why she's asking me this. "I just want to know, gio. Like how've you've been over these years or just in general... or even when we were together." She tells me.
She cares..
"When we were together, i felt great...amazing... loved. When you left, I'm not gonna lie, I was... sad.. as fuck. It took me a while to get over it, I guess. I mean there would be some days when I would just randomly think about you... about us. But I just had to realize that I probably wouldn't see you again, so I just needed to get over it... but In general... I feel... ok. Like im just existing, I guess." I tell her truthfully.
I'm not sad, anymore. Nor am I super happy and shit, but im just here now. I don't really know how to feel.
The elevator dings, signaling that we've reached our floor. I walk over out and start waking to my door and opening it. "I... didn't know gio." She starts but I cut her off. "It's ok imani." I chuckle at her. "If you even need someone to talk to... im here... now." She says, rubbing my arm.
I just hum at her response. I lead her upstairs to her and little's ari room. "My room is right there-" I point to the white door, " if you need anything let me know. If you get hungry, I have food downstairs cause I know your fat ass likes to eat" I say, then she giggles.
She puts a sleeping arianna on the bed and under the covers. I carefully put down their bags and head over to my room.
I start my shower and then get in. A few minutes after I washed up, I go over to the sink and brush my teeth.
I walk back into my bedroom and then walk over to my dresser and grab my plaid pj's. I lotion up and put my nightwear on.
I lay on my bed just scrolling on my phone. A few minutes later I find myself falling asleep.
Few hours later...
I wake up. I look outside and see it's still dark. I grab my phone and see that it's 3:57 am.
I feel that my throat is a little dry so I get up to go downstairs to get a bottle of water.
While, quietly walking downstairs, I see that Imani is downstairs chugging a water bottle. "Why you up?" I ask her, my voice raspy because I just woke up and my throat is a little dry.
She finishes drinking the water bottle while I walk over to the fridge and grab a bottle for myself. "I don't even know. I just got thirsty and got some water... why you up?" She asks me.
Her voice is so pretty.
"Water." I answer. I bring the bottle up to my lips and start to drink the cold water. Water tastes so better at night.
I chug the whole thing without taking a break. Once, I'm done, I throw the bottle away. I lick my lips, breathing heavy while looking at imani looking at me.
Well, my chest and my sleeve of tattoos. I clear my throat, which causes her to look up at me. I slightly smile and walk over to her.
I grab her chin and force her to look up at me with those beautiful eyes. "I'm gonna go to back to sleep..." I slowly kiss her cheek. I look into her eyes, "goodnight, beautiful." I kiss her nose.
I look back at her about to leave until she grabs my head and kisses me. Deeply.
Our tongues moving together so gracefully and passionately. Her running her fingers through my hair making me feel relaxed. I pull her in closer and move her to where, her back is facing the counter.
I slowly bring my hands down her back, leaving trails of goosebumps behind, all the way to grab her ass. I grab a handful of it causing her to moan in my mouth.
I pick her up and sit her on the counter. Never breaking the kiss. I slowly pull away to catch my breath. I look at her swollen lips as she brought them in between her teeth. She rubs her thumbs over my cheek.
"You're blushing, baby."
