When you read books you kinda imagine yourself as the princess or the one who gets the guy, we all do.
I did.
That was until I met him.
Damien Montenegro.
Believe me when I tell you he is every girl's worst nightmare, but to me, he was a dream come...
"And last but not least, the man of the house's room" Damien concluded.
"Woah, your dad?" I teased.
"Haha funny, I'm talking about me" He said and he opened the door to the room.
Decked out would be an understatement.
His room reminds me of those black and white aesthetic room ideas you'd find on Pinterest. His room is fairly huge, the walls were given a black and white pattern with one painting in the centre where the bed is, it was a large king sized bed with a black duvet and two drawers to its sides.
On one side of the room there's a large TV with shelves filled with games CDs and other DVDs, there's a bean bag situated right in front of it, and on the other side of the room there's a neat desk and chair with a MacBook on it. There are two other doors, one is probably the bathroom and the other's his walk in closet.

"Wow" Was all I could say at that moment.
"Wow? Just Wow?" Damien replied
"What? People have different reactions to certain situations" I joked.
I really wasn't surprised that his room was so exquisitely done, the rest of his house is very extravagant.
He showed me his kitchen, which might I add, is the biggest kitchen I've seen, and all 8 rooms located in the house, Chloe's room and playroom, the movie theater and the game room.
Outside there was a pool with a bar and grill at its side, and a tennis court on the other side of the house.
Who's his dad, Tony Stark?
"Feel free to take a seat princess, you must be tired after the whole tour" Damien said breaking me out of my thoughts.
"You can say that again, thanks" I said and sat down.
"So, what's your overall take on the place?" Damien asked suddenly.
"Can I move in?" I said and he laughed "I'm just kidding, this place is so beautiful, your parents did a splendid job on this place"
"Thank you" he said and I looked down on my lap, suddenly finding the invisible lint on my sweats fascinating.
Silence, awkward silence.
I looked up to see him staring at me.
"Is there something on my face?" I said getting insecure all of a sudden.
He realised what he was doing and cleared his throat awkwardly, "Uhh umm, no, sorry...So, tell me about you Sydney" with that he took beside me on the bed.
"Okayy, my full name is Sydney Alexandra Knight, 17, I have Mexican and African blood in my veins, umm, my favourite colour is Brown and uhh, I love playing chess" I answered.
"No, I meant interesting stuff, like your family, your dreams and aspirations, your best friend's name perhaps?" He laughed.
"Okay Damien" I blushed "I'm in a family of four, My mom, stepdad and my little brother Aaron, although my extended family is quite huge. I'm studying to be a veterinarian because I feel like there just aren't enough in this world, I'd like to move to Paris and live in a small two bedroom apartment where I can see the view of the Eiffel tower, I don't really see myself getting married, honestly, and my best friend's Alicia King, she's amazing" I was out of breath as soon as I had finished.
He said nothing, he just stared.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing, just nothing" he said with a smile.
There goes that jaw dropping smile again, sigh.
I smiled back at him, just then, my phone rang. Mom.
"It's my mom, excuse me" I said and walked out of the room.
"Hey mom" I said to her.
"Do you know what time it is? Where are you?" She yelled.
Well shoot, I'm dead.
Here's the thing with parents, never get them worried.
"I'm just three blocks away mom, I'm at a friend's place" I reasoned with her but she wasn't having it.
"So help me God Alexandra, if you aren't here in the next thirty minutes I will skim you alive" she said and hung up.
"Okay byee, love you too" I said sarcastically to no one.
"Mommy issues?" Damien said right behind me and I jumped out of fright.
"Damien! You almost gave me a heart attack, I need to get going, tell your mom I said thanks and tell Chloe I'll see her on the weekend" I said already making plans to see them again.
"No" he said plainly.
"No?" I asked.
"I'm dropping you off first, come on let's go" he said and walked off.
I didn't even get a say in this.
I went back into his room, grabbed my stuff, but not without taking in the smell of his room one last time, and rushed out.
As soon as I reached the end of the staircase Iris walked out of the kitchen, "You're leaving already?"
"Yes please, my mom needs me, but thank you for everything" I said politely.
"Oh honey it's my pleasure, we should really have dinner so I can meet your parents, how does this weekend sound?" She countered.
"I'd ask my mom and get back to you, thank you so much once again, Iris" I said and hugged her goodbye.
Damien was already in his car when I walked out. Soon enough, we were on our way to my place.
I gave him my address and he saved it onto his GPS.
10 minutes later, we had pulled up to my grand style house. It had that mordern victorian style with a huge iron gate, a cobble stone walkway to the foyer, and greenery all around the house, there's a pool out back as well.
I quickly got out of the car and so did Damien, "No Damien, not tonight, maybe some other time"
"I just want to apologize for keeping you out for so long Princess" he tried to reason with me.
"Don't worry about it, I got it, thank you for everything" I said and hugged him.
I gave him a last smile and walked to my front door.
Oh I am so dead.
