Business Marriage

Chapter 7

✧✦✧

I was blanked during the dinner. I don't know what to say,what to react. I WAS TOLD THAT MY MARRIAGE WITH THAT RAPH GUY IS NEXT WEEK. ONE WEEK INSTEAD OF ONE MONTH??? The only thing I did the whole dinner was nodding to the conversation. Even the Raph guy is so quiet,or should I start calling him my Fiancé ???

"Excuse me,I need to use the restroom."

"Okay dear" my mom answer after having a gulp of her wine.

"Gulliano,keep an eye on her."

"Yes boss."

Gulliano followed me until outside restroom, "Miss Aria,you okay?" I shake my body and my head "No. I am lost." He nod to me as in he understand my feeling, "I get it Miss. But remember,your case is different. You don't get to live like a normal family because you are the inheritance of Genovese." I gave him a weak smile and went into the restroom. The lipstick I wear is still on my lips,I guess I didn't even touch the foods.......I look into the mirror telling myself I can do it.

The moment I walk out from the restroom,instead of Gulliano,my Fiancé is standing there waiting for me. "Hey Aria. I mean Miss.Genovese" He scratch the back of his head trying to be 'it's not awkward but it's actually awkward' moments. "Raphfael,it's okay. Lets stick to the you call me Aria,I call you Raph." The nervousness from his face instantly gone. "Cool." Okay,I just want to go home now. It's weird right now. But he quickly say something before one of us making the decision of 'Got to go,bye'

"Aria,do you want to have a walk? To the beach,perhaps?" His eyes is always looking into mine,like I am a criminal. Wow.

"Sure thing." We went into the dinner room and tell the elder we are going out for a walk and they agree. When Father asked Gulliano to take care of me,Raph quickly told Father that he will be 24/7 around me. Well that is kind of sweet.....

The moon is full,and it shines the pathway towards the beach. "Aria,"

"Mhhmmm?"

"What do you think about the marriage?"

"Do you mean the business marriage our Father set up for us?"

"Yeah"

"I don't know. I am excited to get married when I am in that 'fairytale' age but when it's my case I don't think I will love it that much. What more to say I am a Genovese." And again he look at me. Then my stomach just trying to be funny at the same time. Stupid!

"I guess Genovese is hungry." He smirk.

"What with that attitude Edwards?" I giggle yet kind of pushy against him. I lightly slap his arm with him using my surname attitude.

"I will get you something,come follow."

"I will wait you right here."

"No,I told your Father I am taking care of you 24/7 plus I don't want anything happen to my Fiancé." I shocked with his words.

"Alright." We walk to the nearest 7-11 store and bought sandwiches and drinks and went back to the beach. Listening to the sound of waves makes me feel better than before. I quickly open the sandwiches wrapper and grab few bites. Yummy! "Everything tastes like 5stars restaurant when hungry!" DID I JUST SAY IT OUT LOUD????? SUCH EMBRASSING.

"Haha it's true." He giggled and still looking at me. What's with the staring towards me? He open my drink and pass it to me.

"Thank you." I place my drink beside me and continue with my sandwiches,

"You are welcome." He gave me a smile. Oh my, this Raph guy is seriously gorgeous. I look at him and he's still having the staring competition. Is there something on my face?

"Is there something on my face?"

"Yes"

"Can you please help me take tissue in my bag?"

"Sure" He took my bag and grab a piece of tissue. When he place my bag back,the distance of our face is so close that I can almost feel the heat of our faces. He wipes the side of my lips which I assume it must be the mayo from the sandwiches.

"Thank you Raph"

"Erm Aria,"

"Yes?"

"Do you know that you keep on saying sorry and thank you all the time?"

"Uhm......" I think back,I really sure did...... "Yeah...I am sorry..."

"You see?"

"Oh my, I mean,uhm...."

"That's cute. It's okay. I am just playing around with you."

"That's so bad of you."

"It's better than nothing to talk with you."

"Haha....." He is so straight-foward.

"Raph?"

"Yes?"

"Let me ask you back this time,"

"About?"

"What do you think about the marriage?"

"I am glad." I shock with his answer.

"Why? I thought you were so against it?"

"How did you know I was so against it?"

"Well it's common sense Raph. Even I am against it."

"Are you still?"

"............." His eyes are always pin to my eyes. It's like his attitude of 'wanting to make sure if it's true or false' of an answer.

"To be honest,when I know the news I am going to married a mobster's daughter...I am so mad that I get to met you,at the beach." He smile when he said that. My heart skip a beat when he smile.....what am I trying to feel right now? wow. "I am glad it's you. Because I met you once,twice...and now,thrice. Finally a real conversation."

"Why are you glad...?"

"At least I know you are not soo prince-sassy.I mean you are actually much independent and won't cause troubles like some girls are such a whore."

"Pfft. You must be have lots of experiences."

"Aria,"

"Whatever." Why am I like this? Am I jealous because he have lots of girls? what???

"Aria," his tone sounds like 'You need to listen to my explanation

"It's okay Raph,I don't need any explanation. That's your life."

"Aria, it's a 'was' ok? Don't get mad."

"Mad? I am not."

"Aria,"

"What?" I turned to Raph and we kissed. THIS IS A SCENE FROM ME AND DANIEL BUT WHY? RAPH STOLE THE KISS SCENE. BUT RAPH'S LIPS ARE KISSABLE AND I DON'T WANT TO LEAVE. I accept his kiss and we kiss like there's no tomorrow. When his hand slightly touch my thigh,I moan a little. We kiss until we are almost breathless. "That was...."

"Great." and then I realise....we just did something wet my underwear.....

"I am not that type of guy that often said by people around you, I won't hurt your heart." he stop and kiss my forehead. "Lets go. Father and Father in-law is waiting for us."

"Raph....."
