Truth About Love

Chapter 45

I got out of bed then went downstairs to the kitchen and started preparing breakfast for Sergio. I played some music then relaxed and went down to cooking the food. I was going to make him a cheese, bacon, and tomato omelet, with coffee and I, wasn't going to have anything because I wasn't in the mood to eat.

So much was going through my head and it was always going to the two men that were in my life. One was in my life because he was my boyfriend and the other was in my head because I just couldn't get him out of there. I went through a tough break up and I was also going through a relationship that expected so much love from me and even though I was giving the love that wasn't genuine because if I did give it, it would mean more heartbreak and I wasn't ready for that again.

" Morning beautiful," I looked up at Sergio and he had his big smile again that just warmed my heart and just had you smiling with him. " Morning my soccer player."

" How did you sleep?"

" Real good hey, well who wouldn't sleep well in your arms."

" Other women, because they would never know how it feels to be in my sexy strong arms."

" Oh sweety don't get carried away now, but you are right, no other girl should experience how I make love to you, " I said and I poured his food on his plate then gave it to him and gave his already brewed and ready coffee to him.

I poured a glass of water then watched him as he ate and he was the first guy I have ever dated who actually and honestly ate properly without making those really disgusting sounds that had me cringing with disgust. " Why aren't you eating?"

" Not hungry."

" Okay fine, just come taste your masterpiece " I walked up to him then stood in between his legs and he fed me.

My food was actually a masterpiece and a half if I had to say so myself. " I can really cook hey."

" My beautiful chef."

" What in the world will I do with you?"

" Just love me I guess," I kissed him then said " What's today's plan?"

" I want a painting of both of us."

" Well I don't see why not, so let's do it." we left the kitchen then went upstairs to get ready for the day.

We were dressed and ready to leave, I was wearing black skinnies, a white tank top, and my converses. Sergio was wearing jeans, a shirt, and a leather jacket. We went downstairs then went to the car and left the house. We decided to go to the center of Paris, where everything and everyone was.

We walked to a young guy who was starting to set up his art stuff. " Hello there," he looked up at us and his bright green eyes shot at us and had me mesmerized. He wasn't sexy or hot, he was just beautiful and I didn't want to stop looking at him, " bonjour, so how may I help you today?"

" I would like a painting of me and my girl, " the young painter looked at me and shot me a smile. " Your girl is just beautiful," he said and Sergio looked into my eyes with shy loving eyes and said " that's why she is my beautiful." we stayed looking at each other smiling and getting lost in the eyes of each other. " We'll stay in that pose please, it's perfect for me to paint," and so we did what he said and stayed in that position without having any problems.

After 30min of waiting in that pose, the artist was finally done and it felt good to get out of that pose. " So it's done, but I have to do final touches, so go have some lunch or go see my beautiful Paris, come back and fetch your masterpiece after how you say an hour."

" Thank you, oh beautiful, let's go and do what the Jean Luc said and go have lunch." I smiled at Jean Luc to let him know that I say thank you for taking his time to paint us then me and Sergio left. I wasn't attracted to Jean Luc in any kind of way, but when you find something beautiful, you just can't deny the simple pleasures of that beauty now, can you.

We walked into a beautiful french restaurant, sat outside, and enjoyed the sun. I ordered a cocktail and a famous French cuisine and Sergio ordered the same but with a gin and tonic." I saw the way you were looking at the artist."

" And how was I looking at him."

" It was like you were mesmerized."

" Which I was."

" Why?"

" He isn't sexy or hot, he is beautiful and like you said people deserve the word beauty if they express it properly and he did it properly. Are you jealous?"

" Yes, because my girlfriend finds another man beautiful."

" Sergio you do understand that I don't find him attractive in any kind of way."

" Thank god," he said and I burst out laughing and just carried enjoying our lunch date.

We were done with lunch so Sergio asked me to go and fetch the painting while he waited for me, so I gave him a quick kiss and walked to Jean Luc's work station.

He was busy with other paintings, very beautiful paintings of couples, people and scenery. " Hi Jean Luc, I'm here for our painting," he looked up at me and shot me a warm smile. He picked up the painting, gave it to me and said " he loves you doesn't h"

" He does and I love him too."

" I know, but you're holding back."

" What do you mean?"

" Us artists see everything and I see you're holding back and you shouldn't. He loves you and wouldn't do anything to hurt you, so take the risk and let him in."

" Thank you, Jean Luc, for the painting and advice," he nodded then I walked away and went back to you Sergio to carry on our date.

It was in the evening and Sergio took me to the best museum in Paris, that catered for everything, like art, history, sculptures and so much more. We walked into the museum and started to slowly explore the place, I was more excited for the art and sculptures more than the history so I made sure that Sergio and I stayed on that side instead. " Thank you for bringing me here, a nice way to finish off our date,"

" That's not all beautiful," he said with somewhat of a devious smile. "What are you up to Sergio?"

" Do you trust me?"

" That's a rhetorical question, of course, I do."

" Then let's carry on exploring." He said and we did so. People in the museum recognized us, so we obviously took pictures and also give autographs. It was quite fun.

Sergio and I were standing in front of a big door and it seemed as if we were the only ones who were allowed access inside through this door. " I hope you'll like what's behind this door," Sergio said then opened the door and we walked in.

I walked into a big room that was honoring my mom and it was the most beautiful thing in the world. I looked back at Sergio with tear-filled eyes, I couldn't believe he did this for me. I'm proving my love for you, now go and be with your mom, " he said and I did just that.

I started walking around, looking at the picture of her performing, the album covers, the outfits and there were also videos of the performances. I got to one of the videos where they were giving an interview and I heard my mother's beautiful voice again. She was talking about her music and that her inspiration was from me.

This was the best thing anyone could do for me and I was internally grateful for that. I loved Sergio even more for this and I knew that he was the real thing for and I wasn't going to hold back with him.

I carried on walking when I saw a stand in the middle of the room with a box on top, so I went to it, so I could see what exactly it was. Sergio wasn't far from it but he wasn't paying much attention to it, he was looking through a fan book.

I stood right in front of the stand and looked down at the beautiful light blue box, maybe it was my mom's jewelry that I miss when I was cleaning out her stuff, but I doubt because I made sure I had it all. I opened the box and saw a big, beautiful diamond ring and my heart started racing out of control.
