His Rose

Her Smile

Alessandro's POV

I wake up around 7am and smile at a sleeping Rose.
I make my way out of bed trying not to wake her. She rolls over and snuggles into the covers.

I smile again and get in the shower.

I finish showering and walk out the bathroom towards my closet. I turn around and see Rose looking at me wide eyed.

"What?" I say turning back to my closet.

"N-nothing." she stutters and a blush fills her cheeks.

"Awe, you're blushing." I say kissing her forehead before putting on my boxers and sweatpants.

"I am not blushing." she says glaring at me.

"Sure you aren't."

She mumbles something and I frown. She sighs and gets off the bed. She walks up to me as if she wants a kiss. I lean down and she curves me, walking to the bathroom. She starts brushing her teeth and I stand in the door way.

"Why'd you do that?" I say pouting at her.

She finishes brushing her teeth and smiles up at me. I pick her up and she says,

"You're such a big baby." with a little laugh.

"Says the one being held in her boyfriends arms."

"That's only because you're stupidly tall and I can't reach you, even on my tippy toes."

"I'm only 6'7." I say shrugging and walking us to the bed. I sit down. She's now straddling me.

"Only?! You're a foot and a half taller than me!" she says yelling a bit.

"Would you rather me be a foot and a half shorter than you?"

"No! That would make you 3 foot- uhh... shit I suck at math.. But you'd be a whole ass dwarf! Not that there's anything wrong with them-"

I laugh at her a little before kissing her softly.

"Come on, you've got classes to go to."

She gets off my lap and grabs clothes from her side of the closet. I got her some clothes for my house. She walks to the bathroom and turns on the shower.

"Wait for me!" I yell to her. She peeks her head out the bathroom and glares at me.

"Not a chance." she says rolling her eyes and closing the door. I smile and walk to the kitchen.

I feed Luci and make breakfast and lunch for Rose.

***

I drop her off and drive home. She said she'd stay at her and Maia's apartment tonight, which is good because I don't want her to see her ex... or see me kill him.

I don't want her to see me kill someone.

I finally get home and take Luci out to my backyard and let her run around. This dog used to be my only source of happiness, until Rose.

She gives me life, but also peace. She can be annoying and stubborn but she is also sweet, loving and caring. Plus she's gorgeous. It's like looking at artwork.
She's a breath of fresh air compared to what I do on a daily basis.

"Yo, Sandro! What's up man?" Luca says knocking me out of my thoughts.

"Nothing really, I have to kill someone today. Come with me?"
