Something About You

26- Not as Planned.

"Look at this" Gino said. I looked up. "What is it?" "You look cute with glasses" he said. "Oh, this?" I smirked, "I barely wear them just when I'm feeling a little tired, my eyes are bothered by the smallest and I've been reading emails and stuff the whole morning...what is that?" He was holding a bunch of papers and then placed them down on my desk.

I took my glasses off. "Oh...my god" the finale product of the photoshoot pictures was there right in front of me. It was already with all the info of the clothing line. It was so beautiful. "Those are gonna be in...well...everywhere to be honest" he said. "You'll now see yourself in every store, every catalog, every magazine, everywhere" he smiled the biggest. I was just looking at the bunch of papers. "Woah" I sighed resting my head back on my chair. "You're so beautiful, it's not even possible" he added. "This is all out next week. You're gonna be famous" he said making me laugh. "I did it for fun, and work stuff" I assured him. He shook his head.

"I am telling you, if this works as I'm planning you're gonna be asked from every single thing they need, you're gonna be a famous model." He winked being so sure about it. He was all excited it was cute. "Yeah then they're gonna see how short I am and will decline the offer." I rolled my eyes and put my glasses back on as I moved my attention to the laptop screen. "It's not gonna happen, it was just this time, and I'm okay with it"

"Mark my words" he said, "besides, your beauty can't go unnoticed in this world" I laughed. "Alright, whatever you say, I'll continue here meanwhile"

I started typing and he got his phone out and started checking it.

"Don't you have anything else to do? Don't get me wrong but..." I looked at my laptop and then at him. He looked up at me and shook his head no. "I like being near you" "Me too, baby but I need space, I need to be alone when I'm working, it's better for me" I told him. "Sigh. I thought it'd be a great idea for me to move here and work right beside you" I burst out laughing. "Are you seriously?" I said and tried stoping my laugh. He started laughing too. "No, I was just kidding, I'll go now." He stood up and walked closer to me placing his hand on the sides of my chair as he leaned down for a slow and deep kiss. "Hmmm..." I placed my hand on his chest to stop him. "I..." our lips separated.
"I'll see you later, I love you" he said and kissed me one last time before heading out.

I bit my lip. He's so hot. Dang it.

The next weekend we were supposed to be leaving to Los Angeles. It was my brother's birthday. My mom told me it was okay for me to stay at her house.

"Gino is gonna be there with me too..." I said. Expecting her to lecture me about how I couldn't sleep with someone I'm not married to, oh well mom...you know nothing...thank god.

"Already baby, I'm looking forward to properly meet him. He's so handsome and that party he organized for you... he's great" she said with a calm tone.

"He is, he really is." I smiled. "...I'll go now, I can't wait to see you guys. See you next Friday"

I hung up and walked upstairs where Gino was, as usual, on his laptop.

As soon as he saw me he closed it and tapped beside him with his hand. I walked over and kissed him softly getting comfortable on his arms.
"How was your day?" I asked. "It was okay, lots to do" he said, I smiled. "Yeah...same. We gotta get your stuff ready for your Australia trip" I added. "Yeah, I didn't remember that...You know...this is so weird to me" he said. I was confused.

"What do you mean, baby?" "I'm not the kind of man that gets in a relationship the way I did with you, I literally chased you and then went recklessly...I'm not the kind that moves to someone else's house with just like a few months of dating. I'm a whole lot different. I was...you...you have no idea how great I feel. How good you make me feel. I just find myself happy when I look at you, and I say this because I see myself here, sleeping with you every night, waking up to see your face, to kiss your lips, to be with you, and...I'm not a person that actually feels the need of someone being there for them to feel good, I just need myself and that is, but now that I know you...I...god this is so random" he laughed a little passing his hand through his hair.
