I woke up hours later to the sound of Gelo snoring on my chest. I lightly chuckled and I guess the vibrations woke Gelo up because he moved from on top of me to the other side of the bed. I let out a frustrated huff and turned over away from him.

"Well fuck you too then Ugly."

I soon heard him chuckle and felt his arm snake around my waist, pulling me back towards him.

"Don't be like that ma." He said in my ear, with the most sexiest voice I've ever heard.

I bit my lip to hold back a moan. I tried to get up but he wasn't having all of that. He slipped his other arm under me and had me in a vice grip. Why couldn't he be scrawny like his brothers?

"Gelo....baby, let me up."

"No. "

"Why not?"

"Because I said so. That's why. Now hush up and just lay here so I can sleep."

"LiAngelo Ball. I am hungry. Now let me up."

He groaned and unwrapped his arms from around me but immediately trapped me under his larger frame.

"Gelo! What the hell are you doing?"

"I'm ordering room service."

He picked up the hotel phone and ordered us food because he obviously doesn't want me to leave him.

"Do you not want me to leave you?"

"Not really."

"Okay. I won't leave your side. Just get the fuck off of me."

He rolls off of me and I cuddle into his side. It's quite for a few minutes until he speaks.

"Can I tell you something?"

"Yeah, what's up?"

"Mani, I don't wanna scare you but.....I think I love you. I've never felt this way about a girl before. In just 6 short months and us never seeing each other.....you've made me feel important like I was more than just the middle Ball son. Like I actually mattered as LiAngelo.."

I looked up at him for a moment in pure shock. I leaned up and kissed him.

"Awe Baby.... I love you too."

He let out a huge sigh of relief and kissed me again.

"Good. I thought that I was gonna run you away."

"Never that. But what you wanna do while we're stuck in here."

He looked over at me and smiled.

"You know that you can go out and about right? You're not stuck here. I am."

"As long as you're stuck here, WE are stuck here. So as far as I'm concerned, WE are on hotel arrest. I'm just not letting your rat ass teammates in this room."

I crossed my arms and looked at him, dead serious. He bites his lower lip and places a soft kiss on my shoulder.

"How did I ever get so lucky to have met you?"

"We were meant to be together."

"I'm starting to believe that."

He kissed my forehead and then we turned on the Kentucky game. I still have to support my boys even if I'm in China.

I laid my head on Gelo's lap and he started playing with my hair, causing me to become sleepy.

I halfway through the game, I felt my eyes become heavy and I soon fell asleep.

I'm gonna be updating this book more frequently than I will Ball in the Family. Because I've neglected this book for way too long and I finished a whole book before I updated chapter 2 of this book. 😭😭😭 and I'm sorry
