I woke up next to Paulo the next morning. He was watching some Italian show. I looked up at him and smiled.

"Good morning Bellezza," He said with a big smile. I felt safe and happy with him, after just one night. He was way too perfect.

"Good morning, Paulo," I said whilst sitting up and stretching. I was so tired, but it was already 12 a.m.

We were just chilling in bed, watching movie after movie. I got a little bit hungry and so did Paulo.

"Hey, do you want to go out and eat? Not in a fancy restaurant. Like a sushi place or something." He said. I looked at him and smiled.

"That would be great, let me just put some makeup on quick!" I said whilst standing up and walking to the bathroom. I started putting on some casual makeup, fixing my hair and getting changed.

After half an hour we finally went out. We decided to go to a little sushi place that Paulo loved.

We went inside and it was so cozy. Not fancy. Just casual. We sat down and quickly ordered. Whilst waiting for the food, we started talking about everything. My life, his life, soccer and more! It was really fun being out with him.

We finally got our food and I just quickly asked for a fork.

"A fork? No no no I am teaching you how to eat with sticks alright." Paulo said. The waitress laughed and walked away. Paulo got my sticks and helped me get the grip.

"Like this Nicole." He said and showed how to hold them. I tried multiple times but it never worked.

"I can't! It's way too hard!" I said and laughed. I just decided to eat with a fork instead.

"Next time, you will learn. I promise." He said with a big smile. I giggled and we just started the small talk again.

After our meal, we went home and continued to just sit in bed binge watching a ton of movies.

After a few days

Paulo stood up and went to his closet. I was laying in his bed as usual just chilling.
"Nicole, I'm going out with some friends to go play soccer okay? Are you gonna stay here or go out." He said.

"I will probably just be here all day, I got nowhere else to be," I said when he came back all changed. He nodded and kissed me on my forehead.

He then went out and drove off. I was all alone in Paulo's house now. And I was immediately bored.

I decided to go downstairs and fix some breakfast. I saw a little speaker, so I connected it to my phone and just blasted some music. I was dancing around and just having a good time.

I just kept thinking of yesterday. When he wanted me to be his girlfriend.

I didn't tell you because it's a short story. But basiclly we were at a fancy restaurant and he bought me a diamond necklace.

"Nicole, will you be my girlfriend?" He asked me. I was shocked. Most boys had left me by then.

I obviously quickly said yes and he was happy. And so was I. It was amazing to have such a great man in my life.

Hours and hours later

I was sitting in the living room watching a movie, it was midnight and Paulo had still not gotten home. I didn't want to text him because I figured he would think I'm annoying. So I just sat and waited.

After about 20 minutes someone knocked on the door. I went to go open and I saw Paulo. He was drunk and was hanging on to his friend.

"Uhm yeah, he got really drunk." His friend said. He helped me get Paulo inside and help him get to the living room.

"Thank you for bringing him home," I said with a big smiled before closing the door. He smiled back and quickly drove off.

"What happened Paulo?" I said. I was really concerned. Did he do something he regretted or did he just feel like getting drunk?

"I'm sorry Nicole..." He mumbled. I got really worried. I took his hand and held it tightly. I looked into his eyes and I saw he was tearing up.

"Paulo I swear to god if you don't tell me right now I will end you!" I said. He looked up and let out a sigh. He looked disappointed. I thought I did something wrong.

"I cheated on you... I'm so sorry Mi Amor! I couldn't just let go of my player life just like that. It was something I got used to. But when I met you I knew you would be the perfect girl to help me change. Because it was like love at first sight." He said and started crying a little.

I got to admit, it hurt. I was sad obviously. But I couldn't bring myself to yell at him or break up. He was too special to me. Even though he cheated, I didn't want to leave him at all.

"It's okay. I won't leave you, Paulo." I told him and smiled. He looked up at me and wiped away his tears. He smiled.

"Are you serious?" He said. I nodded and smiled again. He kissed me and hugged me after. "Thank you, Nicole, for giving me a chance. Most girls would've just left by now."

We went upstairs and Paulo fell asleep on the bed quickly. I laid down on the bed and started thinking about what he did. Fine, he did cheat, but that doesn't really mean he is worthless. I mean he is trying?

I thought about it for a while and yes. I trusted him, with all of my heart. But suddenly, he just cheated. I actually wanted to leave him so bad right now. But I knew couldn't bring myself to do it. He really was too special. He was The Loved Cheater.

AN: Please excuse all mistakes and bad storyline in this chapter. I will make it better when I feel better.
