Aria

Last night was something, when we got to the room. It was full of rose pedals and there was even a bath ready. I was blushing so hard at everything that was happening because this was absolutely beautiful.

*flashback*

"You did all this?" I asked in amazement

"I had some help, but yea. I wanted to do this for you..I know how stressful things have been for you these past few months and I just wanted to do something nice for you." He said kissing my cheek, while removing my bag to sit it on the nearest table

"Now, you go ahead and get in the tub. Relax and I'll make sure our food is in route."
He said while leading me to the bathroom

I didn't even realize there could be anymore rooms in this villa but hey I thought wrong. I loved the rose pedals that was everywhere the most.
Undressing and getting in the water, my body began to relax to the hot temp. I sunk deeper into the water as my hair got wet.

This was really unbelievable and I felt alive and lucky. After relaxing in the tub sometime. I began to wash up. As if on que Carnell walked in.

"Hey I-I" he started stuttering over his words

"Spit it out!" I said laughing a little

I was high key embarrassed but it was awkward but I played it well. My body shouldn't be no different than before right?

"The food is here." He said clearing his throat

"Okay I'll be out in a minute." I said smiling

"Okay." He said while leaving out the bathroom

Even though I was nervous.. why did it make me horny? The last time I had sex was two years ago and it's been a while for me.

Getting out the tub, drying off and putting on my robe. I walked to the bedroom and seen Carnell laying on the bed with the tv on scrolling through his phone.

"Hey." I said

Well, let's address the elephant in the room.

"Hey." He said locking his phone and putting it on the night stand before looking up at me

"You okay?" I asked sitting next to him

"Yea, why wouldn't I be?"

"You just seen me naked." I said chuckling

"Your reaction was different than I expected I guess." I finished

"Yea, it's been a while. Ya'know , since Ive seen you and I just don't know." He said

"Come on talk to me." I said

"I don't be knowing if we should just pick up where we left off or if we start over? I mean I know we're not the same as before but does that mean our good times have to start over as well?"

"I'm your lady. We're not in the talking stages or the getting to know each other stage. We are in a relationship, we are TOGETHER, we live under the same roof. We even go to bed with each other. Why are you doubting that?" I asked as I slowly sat on his lap facing him

"I don't know, I just know that I love you and I want this to work. I don't wanna be extra or not giving enough. I want to do my part and do it well." He said as his hands rest comfortably on my butt

For some odd reason that made me wet. I quickly adjusted my legs and proceed

"I love you too baby. I know things are different now but we got to start with now and make our future we can't just try to start over. Life doesn't work like that and it's too short." I said while reading his face
