The night we met

Chapter 11

We arrived at the Italian restaurant. It was absolutely beautiful from outside, it was big and white. It had a big title in cursive that said 'Giordano'

The entrance was a glass door and I could see the huge amount of people in the inside with formal dresses. Matteo parked in the front and then he turned off the car, taking the keys. He turned around and his gaze landed on my legs and they slowly moved upwards until he looked into my eyes. I turned nervous but loved his stare me. Why does this happen to me?.

He finally said, "They are waiting for us inside."

He opened his door and he slowly walked out. He fixed again his tie and began walking to my side. I knew he was going to open the door but I did it before he came.

"You need to be more faster, Mr. Giordano," I said as I closed the car's door.

He just smirked at my comment and rolled his eyes.

I took my gaze from him and I began smiling and stared and the restaurant. I hadn't been in a restaurant before, this was my first time.

He stared at me for a long time, until I looked at him. Gray and brown eyes. He took a step forward and offered me his arm for me to grab it. Should I?

We continued to look at each other, until I grabbed him. I could feel his muscles. His strength. We started walking but I finally remembered that the restaurant was full of people and got nervous. Matteo noticed and he moved his arm on my waist and I took in breath in surprise. I wasn't expecting that move but I relaxed myself under his touch and how he hold me firmly toward him.

I was in high heels and I didn't want to fall down. "Please don't let me fall," I said looking at the door while we walked. He got closer into my ear before we got in and whispered, "Never."

The guards opened the glass doors and we got in. I felt coldness in my whole body as stopped in front of a table.

On my left there was a table with many waitresses. One of them was blonde and smiled at him and began walking toward us. "Hi, Mr. Giordano. Your table is ready, follow me please," she said as she began walking.

His hand was still on my waist. People began staring at us, I felt nervous by all the attention but I just held my head higher. Matteo noticed and he smiled. Our table was in the middle facing a stage. We saw Charlotte and Noah and I waved my hand. When we were getting closer, Matteo removed his hand. Of course, his date was Evelyn. I hugged Charlotte and Noah and sat down. Matteo sat at Evelyn's side but he was in front of me. Evelyn noticed me watching him and she began touching Matteo's arm, and I just rolled my eyes. Does she thinks, she can make me jealous?.

Minutes later a waitress came and Charlotte ordered two bottles of wine.

"So, Evelyn. Where are you working?," Charlotte said, since she also noticed how she was trying to make me jealous.

"I'm in the sales and marketing area of one of my father's company," she said.

"Oh I see. I wondered why haven't we worked together yet, I mean you are really busy right?," Charlotte said, raising her eyebrow.

"Yes, busy with him," she said looking at me. I just rolled my eyes and began laughing. She's really trying to bother me right?

"What about you Avaneda? Do you even have a work? A talent? Of course not, I mean look at you! Have you talked to a man before? I bet you are still a virgin," she said and looked at me with hateful eyes. Suddenly there was silence and every one stared at me. Bitch.

"Who the fu....," Charlotte began saying but I stopped her. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. We don't need to show our weakness and how others words affect us. Evelyn didn't respect me as I did with her. But I think she needs to learn. I began smiling at her as she waited for my answer. I stood up slowly and leveled my eyes with hers.
