I was just minding my own business, moving into my new high-rise apartment in New York - moving into the 19th floor. I wanted one of the penthouse apartments, but couldn't get it. Apparently, they are all sold out. As I was moving up some boxes, I heard a voice call out. 

" Excuse me beautiful, need some help?"

 I turn around and am met with 4 gorgeous men. All towering over my 5 foot frame. They had to all be at least 6 foot and a little over. Gorgeous green eyes, hazel eyes, and grey eyes staring back at me. I could tell they were related. 

I looked to my left - Mr. Green Eyes smiled at me. He was nice olive complexion. Gorgeous hair at the top and sides shaved. Nice full, pink lips. I smiled back. "Sure" I said. "I am Sarina. I am staying up on the 19th floor."

One by one they introduced themselves. Mr. Green eyes  brown flecks in them is  Antonio "Tony" Romano.

Grey Eyes - Francesco "Frankie" Romano

Hazel Eyes - Matteo "Roman" Romano

Hazel Eyes with grey flecks - Paulino "Paulie" Romano.  

Turns out Franky, Roman and Pauly are brothers. Roman being the oldest at 26, Frank second oldest at 25, and Pauly the youngest at 23. Tony is 26 like Roman, but older by 6 months. He is their cousin. Gorgeous Afro-Italian man.

They each grabbed a box and headed towards the elevator. 

"So Sarina, where are you from? You have this exotic look to you. If you don't mind me saying." Pauly spoke.  

" I am from Virginia, Virginia Beach to be exact. Virginia Beach is still my home, just visiting New York for about 6 months  or so. And to answer your question, I am mixed/ biracial - Black and Filipino."

As I spoke, I could feel eyes just seeping into my soul. I glanced up at the reflection on the elevator doors and see Roman's gaze on me. Not even blinking or trying to hide the fact that he is staring at me. 

Damn!! He is so fine and gorgeous. He exudes power and authority. Someone like him definitely has a girl at home. No need to get my panties in a bunch, I am only going to be in New York for 6 months. 

But what if.....?
