Always

51 : calls

After an exhausting day we both quietly sit in the cars . the driver brings the engine to life and starts driving . I eye Luca. he's still wearing my pendant , an unconscious smile settles on my face , he's deeply staring in his phone it must be something important considering he didn't even look up once when I entered the car ,not that I'm so important or something but because he always does so , I got used to his warm smile . After a while I rest my head on the window and somewhere after deep sleep knocked me out.

"Ivy ? " I hear someone call me ,shaking me lightly . I blink trying to clear my vision ."come on Ivy ,we've reached "he says but before I could nod or reply back he leaves, his head still buried in his phone. Weird. Anyway after a second or two I get out of the car and try to catch up with his hurried walk but I loose him when the door to the elevator close on my face . Could've atleast waited. Dick .

After entering in my room I take a long relaxing shower and lay back in bed .i'm so tired and it's only first day . I miss Grace . Just as I close my eyes I hear a knock on my door . I groan , and begrudgingly walk to the door . "what ? " I ask glaring at Luca mostly because of his behavior but also partially because I had to get out of my bed .

"dinner's ready, wait were you about to go sleep ? " he asks looking at my darkened room .

"no , I was pole dancing in my room, good night " I turn to smash the door in his face but he catches the door before it could close .

"can I watch ? " he asks cheekily

"watch what ? " I ask annoyed

"you pole dance ? "  he smiles innocently still holding the door. i try to forcefully close the door but it doesn't happen since I'm five foot nothing and he's a giant beast .

"I'm sorry, please talk to me , I know it's my fault" I leave the door in its condition and turn around back in my bed .I laying on my bed facing towards the window .he sits on the floor facing me "I'm sorry " I quietly turn around facing the other side ,and I burry my face in the comforter. "okay you can be mad at me but please don't skip dinner  " he says guilt audible in his voice.

"I'm not hungry, go away " he exhales and then after a second or two I hear shuffling and his footsteps . Did he leave?. Before I could look up I feel the other side of the bed  dipping and I feel a hand on my waist and in this moment I'm so thankful for the dark .he pulls me closer till my face is buried in his chest . His scent surrounds my nostrils .

"I'm sorry " he whispers

"go away " I groan but my voice comes out muffled . After a lot of effort and energy I pull away from him and turn around facing my back towards him . I'm enjoying this way more than I should .

He again backs me up till I feel his chest .

"I'm sorry, it'll not happen again " he says but this time his voice is muffled once since his face is resting in the crook of my neck .
