Snap! • Stefano Valentini x Reader

XI

I have to protect him.

I stay quiet for a while, I could feel Stefano starts to worry.

"(y/n) you okay?" he ask.

I look down, I feel really guilty. I just realize that I have this feelings for him. The one that people calls love.

Tears starts to form, I quickly wipe it away. I don't want him to see me cry.

"(y/n)? Are you crying?"

"N-no."

Sadly though, he lift my chin up so that I face him. He brush away my tears.

"I'm sorry I didn't spend more time with you, I-"

"No it's not because of that!" I said rather loudly.

"Just... It's nothing. Forget it."

I turn around but he yank my arm and before I knew it he kiss me. I tense at first but quickly melt in to the kiss.

It's not anything messy. It's a kiss that's full with meanings.

I grab his shirt collar, telling him not to let go. His hand on my waist and the other one gently holding my cheek.

We hold each other for some time, not ready to let go.

He look deep in to my eyes once we parted.

"You're really beautiful, so beautiful that I'm afraid to lose you."

He take my right hand and bow down a little to kiss it.

"Let's make a world just for the two of us."

And a bright blue light blinds me up, Stefano is gone.

Even though we didn't say anything, now we know we love each other.

My heart ache a bit.

I touch my lips, feels like his touch still lingers around me.

Despite everything, Stefano is quite a gentle lover.

I snap out of my thought and quickly continue to search for Lily.

Luckily, I found her locked in the photo studio and I know where the key is. The poor little girl quickly jump on to me and cry.

"I was so scared!" she said in between her sobs.

"it's fine now, it's fine." I calm her down and hug her.

After she feels better we walk out of the room hand in hand. She asks me along the way as to where I take her to.

I answer her but she look at me with a confuse expression.

"You're taking me to my dad?"

"Yes, you'll finally be free."

"but he's already-"

Before I could hear her answer there's a huge earthquake. The vase next to me fell down and so is the photo frames on the wall.

Something's definitely not right.
