First Love

ARIA

“Good morning,” I whispered.

He yawned and rubbed his eyes. “Morning, doll.”

Oh god! Again doll!

I rolled my eyes but didn’t say anything. Let him do whatever he wants but only for 10 days. After that everything will run according to me.

I shrugged my shoulders and placed a soft kiss on his cheeks. He was taken back by my action and looked into my eyes as if he found something precious to look at.

Uh. Okay.

“From today onwards I’ll wake you up every day in the morning.” I smiled.

Off course that smile was fake. I mean this is all for only 10 days. I am not going to wake him forever. Furthermore, he himself is a grown-up man, she should wake up by himself.

But damn his morning voice! It turned me on.

Oh shut up Aria!

He pulled me closer to him by my waist and now I was above him. He ran his fingers above my shoulders and smiled.

Bless that sexy smile!

“My doll is happy today, what happened to her?” He asked, still smiling.

Come on Aria, this is the time. Say some sugar-coated lies.

“Your doll is happy because she is with you.”

His facial expressions softened further and a huge grin appeared on his lips, on those delicious lips. For once I thought of kissing him but then I remember what he did yesterday to me, he practically made me taste my own blood and no I’m not going to kiss him.

“You are happy because of me?” he asked in excitement.

His voice was like a child who just found a gift. Frankly, it made me sad to see him like this I mean he is a f****** Mafia for god’s sake and here he is acting as if I am his lifeline. I don’t know if it’s true or not, maybe it’s his obsession but I kind of like to be his doll, not where he tries to kills me but somewhere along the line when he reacts sweet to me, it feels good.

My parents had passed away very early in a car accident and since then I craved for love. But there was no one to look after me. I have to make sure that I am enough for me and maybe that’s why I am a hopeless romantic girl. I always fantasized finding a guy who will love me enough to erase all my bad memories. I wanted someone to love me because I have never been loved in my whole life. Maybe my parents sent Damiano to me, or maybe it’s just a whole coincidence but whatever it is I feel happy.

Even in his obsession, I see someone who cares for me and that’s enough maybe that’s the reason why I don’t want to run away from him. if one day he becomes completely okay with his mental state and still decides to be with me I promise I will never leave him because I know that no one will ever gonna love me and If Damiano does then it would be my best luck ever.

But then again if his mental state is normal then why would he like to be with an eighteen-year-old girl. He could easily find a perfect woman for him but that’s okay let’s see where these ten days take me. All I could do is to wait and hope for the best.

“Can I ask you something, Damiano?” I asked.

“sure,” he said with a huge smile on his face.

“Will, you ever leave me?”

“I promise I won’t ever leave you and don’t say that to me again I don’t want to be angry, don’t force me to be.” He hissed.

Ah, he’s back.

I rolled my eyes and kissed him on his forehead and that’s how he once again started smiling.

“Will you watch a movie today with me?” I asked.

“Not Beauty and the beast.” He made a face.

Of course not! I thought. I don’t have any wish to get myself killed.

“We will watch something more beautiful okay?”

***

This time it was me to set up a movie date. I took the help of Rico and Alex to set up everything perfectly. I arranged an open sky movie theatre and of course popcorns and cold drinks.

After a while, I called Damiano and made him sat next to me. When we both get comfortable and I started the movie. Guess which movie it was?

Cinderella, my favourite fairy tale. off course after beauty and the beast.

As the movie started, I was an honest little bit scared that what if in this movie something ignites his anger and I kept on looking at his face to read his reaction but to my surprise, he was relaxed. In fact, he was actually enjoying the movie which I got to know by his wide smile after the movie ends.

Cupping his cheeks I look straight into his eyes. “I am also like Cinderella, I never had anyone with me but then you came like Prince to me and I feel good. I really do feel good.” I said.

He looked at me nervously, without a word-forming out of his mouth. His expressions were hilarious, he really thinks that I feel like Cinderella?

Oh hell no!

Soon he smiled brightly and pulled me to kiss. But this time his kiss was soft and tender unlike other times and that’s how I knew that I could tame the beast inside him.
