Omertà, Amore Mio

Chapter 21

Noelle
June 4th

I did it. I finally graduated college. My whole family is here but what would make it better is if my dad was here. I wish he was still alive. He would be so proud of me. He probably already is. I know he's probably smiling down at me from Heaven. I smiled at the thought and posed for a picture with Jaylee. My family bombards me with flowers and hugs. Aufiero and the guys do the same. "I got you a graduation present"He whispers in my ear. I smirked. "What?" He pulled me away from my family leading me towards the door. He opened it revealing a brand new black Audi S8. I gasped. "For me?" He nodded. I laughed. "Why did you....Oh my gosh. I can't believe you did this for me. Oh my gosh. I love you"I said giving him a hug. He smiled and for a second, it looked like he was about to cry. "I love you too dolce cuore" 

"Thank you Aufiero" 

"You're welcome. You do need a new car to match our brand new house"He says. What? New house? "You bought us a house together?" He nods. "I sold mine." Tears threatened to leave my eyes. "Aufiero, did you really? For us?" He nods again. "You know I'd do anything for you" I giggled. "You're so amazing yknow" He smiles. "Yeah, I've been told but I think that you'll think I'm more than amazing after I do this" 

I raised a brow. "Do what?" 

Aufiero proceeded to get down on one day and the tears began to flow. I didn't realize there were people around us until they started saying 'Awwww'. He pulled a black box from his pocket. It literally feels like my heart is in my stomach right now. He looked at me and more tears began falling. He placed my hand in his. "Noelle Owen, I promise to love you every moment of forever, would you do me the extraordinary honor of marrying me?" 

"Hell yes" 

He slid the ring on my finger and everyone around us clapped and said romantic things. Aufiero pulled me into a hug. "I love you Noelle" 

"I love you too"

He places his lips on mine. "You are my life now"He whispers. I smirked. "The lion fell in love with the lamb." He smirks too. "He sure did" I kiss his lips. "Are you gonna make love to me tonight?" 

"Hell yes" We both laughed and got into my new car. He drove. I told my family I'd see them tomorrow. "I think it was cool how you quoted Twilight Eclipse" He smiled. "Jaylee told me that the Twilight movies are your favorites so" I grinned. "Amo davvero cazzo te"I said. He smiled from ear to ear. "io veramente cazzo ti amo troppo"He says. 

(Amo davvero cazzo te- i really fucking love you)
(io veramente cazzo ti amo troppo- i really fucking love you)

Sunday- 11 days later

"I was thinking" I began, "We should get married at Disney World" He chuckled. "Disney World? Who gets married at Disney?" I scoffed. "Um, Disney is cool. They have a place inside of Disney that's a wedding chappel or something like that." He groaned and layed his head back. "I guess we could."He said. 

"So, what are you gonna do now that you have a degree?" I shrugged. "I haven't really thought that far" He laughs, "Well, tomorrow, we're gonna go looking for buildings to get you set up Ms.Psychologist" I playfully punched his arm. "Shutup" He laughed and kissed my cheek. "I'm serious. You didn't work hard for that degree for no reason" I smiled. "You're right."

"I'm always right"

"I can't believe this is actually happening. I'm engaged and I got my degree. Like, this is very surreal" 

"And don't forget your dream car"

"Yeah, that too"I said with a smile. "My mom can't wail til the wedding. She called me last night saying how she wanted to help plan"
