Chapter Fifteen

Rose's P.O.V.

Emilio drives me back home, as he constantly looks over at me, making sure I was okay.

"Emi, I'm fine, you don't have to keep looking over at me every second." I giggle as he continue to drive, a small blush on his cheeks.

I look over out the window, looking out on the streets and the many buildings passing by. I continue to look at every little detail, thinking about everything.

Should I tell Emilio I like him? Admit my feelings to him? He has been so sweet and caring to me, helping me with anything I need.

It feels as he has feelings for me, but what if he doesn't? I mean, I don't want to ruin anything we have together.

But we certainly have something special, he's made me feel some way that no other guy has made me feel.

Especially after Adam, it's been so long that I haven't been looking for relationships. But that's the thing about me and Emilio, I wasn't looking for it when he came into my life. It just kind of happened, and I started to have feelings for him.

I'm distracted from my thoughts when I feel Emilio say that we're at home.

I open my door, having Emilio quickly close his door, and run around the car getting to me. I step out of the car, with the help of Emilio and continue to walk.

It wasn't that hard to walk, but I was just super bruised up and cut from the accident; as well as sore. The help with Emilio, didn't help much. As I only focused on his arm around my waist, holding me close to him. The electricity going strong through his arms, and the butterflies strong in my belly.

We continue walking through the parking lot, and into the elevators. Once we reach inside, I lean against the railings of the elevator, being able to relax my legs.

As the elevator goes up to our floor, Emilio once again wraps his arms around my waist, guiding me to my apartment.

"Keys?" He asks me, as we stand in front of my door.

I slip my hand into my purse, grabbing the keys and handing them to him, having him open the door. As the door unlocks, we walk in, and i'm met with my apartment, just how I last left it.

I walk inside, and quickly made my way to the couch, slowly laying down and cuddling into the pillow.

"Emi?" I ask as I lift my head up slightly, seeing him make his way next to me as he lifts my legs, and slips his way under, resting my legs on his lap.

"Yes Princesa?" He answers, as he looks down at me.

"Can you stay for a little bit? Like until I get better? It's hard getting around." I ask quietly. I mean I don't want to embarrass myself, but extra company would be nice, especially Emilio's.

Besides, I do actually need help doing stuff.

"Of course, anything for you." He responds, giving me a huge smile, lighting up the room.

I slowly get up, getting in a sitting position, and then walking into the kitchen.

"Oi! Don't go by yourself! I could help you." Emilio exaggerates, as he runs up to me and wraps an arm around my waist. I stop grabbing on to the counters beside me and onto his arm.

"Emi, It's okay, I want to try and do it by myself." I say as I giggle at his behavior, and continue walking to the fridge.

"When do you get your cast off?" Emi suddenly asks, looking down at my arm; a sorrow look on his cute face.

"He said my arm wasn't completely broken, it was just a fracture; so I could get it off in two weeks. But until then, I can't pay piano." I tell him chuckling slightly as I take out leftover pizza from a couple days ago.

"Okay good, Ivan said he wants to film a video with you. So we can do that once your brace is off." Emi says, as he grabs a couple of plates and hands me one.

"We don't have to wait until my cast is off, we can do it in a couple days when i'm not as sore." I tell him as I put both of our plates of pizza in the microwave to heat up.

"Perfect! I can't wait." He says excitedly, a certain emotion in his eyes I can't quite decipher.

I just ignore it, and wait for our pizza to heat up.

"Flor, wanna have a movie night?" He asks curiously, stopping the beep of the microwave, signaling our food was done.

I smile immediately comes to my face as I respond, "Of course." As I grab my pizza from his hands, and run to the couch, instantly regretting it as the pain comes back.

"Flor! You have to be more careful!" Emilio says seriously, worry flashing his beautiful eyes, as he puts a movie into the player.

"I'm okay Emi, I just, um forgot." I say as I make myself comfortable and Emilio sits right beside me, not a single centimeter in between us.

I then feel him wrap his arm around my waist, pulling me closer into his chest, feeling the warmth radiate off his body.

I lean into his touch, leaning my head into his chest, feeling his heartbeat.

I don't focus on the movie, but rather focus on the steady beat of Emilio's heart, his arm around my waist; sending electricity sparks through his arm to the rest of my body. I fell myself falling into a deep sleep when Emilio starts to play with my hair. The last thing I feel is Emilio placing a soft kiss on my forehead before the darkness consumes me.
