The King, His Queen, and Princess

Rose

I was so happy and I couldn't stop smiling. My eyes kept on trailing to the beautiful rose gold ring on my finger. My chest would feel so light every time it would catch my eye when I looked down. Alessandro kept on looking at me with the same big bright smile on his face.

I really didn't think that I could get the big bad mafia man would fall in love with a normal girl like me. It feels like it was just yesterday that he came into the cafe with Vlad.

Who would have thought that the man that I had a one night stand with five and half years ago would be the man I fall in love with. I sometimes thank god that I went to work the day he came i because if not I would have never found him again.

"Baby?" Alessandro grabs my hand and squeezes it which brings me back from my thoughts.

"Yeah?" I say and he stares at me with a soft glint in his eyes.

"Why do you keep on zoning out? Is something wrong?" He asks worriedly and I shake my head with a smile.

"No, I was just thinking," He takes a sip of his wine and then brings his attention back to me.

"About how much you love me?" He asks playfully and I shake my head.

"No," I stick my tongue out at him and he pouts.

"Well, I am thinking about how much I love you," He mumbles as he takes a bite out of the warm and crispy pieces of baguette on the table. I grab his hand and let my thumb caress his hand. I use my other hand to eat some of my dinner.

"Wow," He says as he stares at me with his big silver eyes.

"What?" I ask as I wipe my mouth with a small creme colored cloth.

"You're so beautiful, I literally get so distracted when looking at you," He says and I feel my cheeks redden.

"Stop it!" I murmur as I cover my face with my left hand.

"Can't I appreciate the most beautiful woman on Earth?"

"Oh please, look at me I am nothing compared to all those models you can have. I have a double chin and I eat like a pig. What do you see that's so beautiful? I can literally crack a mirror just by looking into it," My voice lowers and sadness as Alessandro's eyes widen and a scowl forms on his face.

"I don't think I am hearing you correctly. Maybe I had too much wine. Rosalie, you are the most beautiful and real woman on Earth. None of those models can compare to you because you have natural beauty. That double chin you have is none existent and the way you eat actually turns me on. Yes, you may have your flaws but who doesn't? I am so happy I found someone like you and not everyone can say that they got back together with their one night stands five years later. You stole my heart Rosalie and I promise you, you don't have to stress the way you look in front of me because you will always look amazing through my eyes. I love you and you do not need to put yourself down because you are so gorgeous, pretty, and all mine," He kisses my hand and I feel my eyes well up with tears. That has to be the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me.

"I-I can't express how much you mean to me. No one has ever said such great things to me," I wipe one of the tears that had slipped down my eye and pray that I no more come down.
