I walked into the apartment with a smile on my face. Who knew you could have so much fun learning Italian, definitely not me! Not to mention Marco is such a sweet person, I just really want to know what Bella means.
“Adriana!” Gabriele shouted from upstairs. Stomping came from above me, quickly making its way down the hall and towards me. Moments later he appeared at the bottom of the stairs covered in ketchup which matched his beat red face.
“My, my Gabriele you should really clean up.” I waved at him and began to make my way to the living room. “By the way how did you get my number you creep?”
A low growl sound erupted from Gabriele as he leaped forward taking us both to the floor. I squealed out in alarm as he stared at me. The blue eyes were now like a dark ocean blue which were so pretty… ugh I need to stop thinking about this. Especially now when Gabriele is straddling me on the floor, with a killer’s expression. “What were you thinking!? Those cost more than you probably could ever afford.”
Raising my eyebrows, I smiled at him wickedly. “What, is this the part where you kill me?” Struggling to get up I shoved him in the chest… that fine and muscle covered chest… UGH!
“Well I am thinking about it now…”
I screamed loudly startling him in the process which caused him to tumble backwards. Getting up quickly I made my way to the front door and opened it. I looked over my shoulder at Gabriele who was now on his feet and chasing after me. Screaming again I ran out the door and down the breezeway to the main building. I glanced over my shoulder again to see him gaining speed every few seconds.
I ran into the building into the nearest room making sure to close and lock the door. Panting loudly I fell to the floor and stared at the door, hoping he wouldn’t check here first. A low cough came from across the room making me jump at least two feet in the air. I looked over at Marco who was holding a drink and newspaper in his hand.
“Hello,” he said clearly amused. “What brings you here?” Getting up he walked over to stand in front of me. Footsteps echoed down the hall growing closer and closer. Marco glanced at the door in confusion and then back down at me. “What’s going o-“
Before he could finish I grabbed his hand and jerked him down next to me. Putting my finger over my mouth signaling for him to be quiet I went back to listening for sounds.
“Adriana I know you’re in here somewhere! Come out!” Gabriele roared.
I flinched at his voice and scooted closer to the corner making Marco scoot over too. The sounds soon died down but I wasn’t taking a chance by leaving just yet. Letting go of the breath I was holding I looked over at Marco. “Roommate problems…”
“Uh huh…” He whispered looking down at his soda drenched shirt. Chuckling he looked back at me with those big brown eyes. “You got an arm there.”
I smiled sheepishly at him. “Sorry about that.” Crawling over to the drawer I blindly reached in and grabbed some napkins. Checking the door again I went back over to Marco’s side to help him clean himself off. Rubbing his shirt with a napkin I couldn’t help but feel the muscles flexing under his shirt as he worked on a different spot. What are with these Italian boys and their muscles!
“It’s alright.”
Wanting to change the topic so he couldn’t ask any more questions about my killer of a roommate I asked the first thing that popped into my mind. “What does bella mean? You never told me?”
A blush appeared on his face and I had to admit it was very cute. “Erm it um means…” he began rubbing his neck. “Beautiful.”
I knew my face matched his at that moment. He thought I was beautiful? “You think I am beautiful?” I felt stupid for asking that after he clearly just said that I was. Mentally slapping myself I waited for a reply.
“Yes, yes I do,” He murmured, making eye contact with me again.
What happened next was completely a surprise to both me and him. At the same time we both leaned in and moments before our lips met a loud bang came on the door. “Adriana you’re in there I know you are! Why else would this door be locked!?” Gabriele screamed while jiggling on the handle.
I shrunk in alarm and got behind the couch the same time Marco got up. “Marco what are you doing!?” I yelled in a hushed tone.
He looked back at me for a moment before motioning for me to get behind the couch again. “Yes?” he said while answering the door. Gabriele stood there panting and red still. I giggled a little at his appearance because who wouldn’t he looked funny. Even Marco found it a little amusing by the look on his face.
“Where is she I know she is in here.”
“Who?” Marco asked playing dumb. He casted a glance at me from the corner of his eye while Gabriele was too busy looking around the room.
“Adriana…” Gabriele was clearly annoyed now.
“Oh my student! She is not in here did you check the girls bathroom?” He pointed in the direction of the bathrooms.
Gabriele eyed him suspiciously. “Why was the door locked then?”
“I was locking up after I got my drink, which when you banged on the door caused me to spill.” He simply replied with a shrug of his shoulders. He was pretty good at lying… has he had practice or something?
Groaning Gabriele backed away from the door muttering along the way. “How does a girl just disappear like that?” The door closed and I jumped up from my hiding spot making sure to stay in the corner.
I motioned for Marco to come over, stealing a few looks at the door along the way. “Thanks,” I whispered. “Um about that almost kiss…” I didn’t know what to say but I knew as I hid my face that I was red for like the hundredth time today.
“I wish Gabriele didn’t come and ruin it,” he whispered back with a wink.
I smiled at him and stood there for a few moments. Those few moments weren’t awkward and just enough time for me to get a good look at his face. Perfectly straight and pearly white smile, brown short and spikey hair that was a little messy in a cute way. Then there were those eyes that I loved so much, they were like dark melted chocolate locked away in little orbs.
Without thinking again I reached up and gently pulled his head towards mine, closing off the distance between us. The kiss only lasted for a few moments and I pulled back to see his reaction. He was smiling down at me, a smile I couldn’t help but return. Thoughts of course were floating through my head as I thought about how much trouble we could in if they would have caught us kissing, and why did I kiss him I didn’t even know the guy that well. But the risk was well worth it, I would have died not knowing what I was like kissing him.
“Wow is all I can think of at the moment.” He was still close to me from me dragging him forward so I could kiss him. He blinked a couple of times, “Thank you.”
I blushed and turned towards the door, “I should um… go.” I couldn’t think straight at this moment, not with all these thoughts floating around it my head. I ran back over to Marco and kissed him lightly again before exiting the room and out the door.
I made my way back to the apartment and found Gabriele pacing in the living room. He stopped and glared at me, but I didn’t care I was still too caught up in my happy moment to think about his murderous mind. “Hi Gabriele,” I softly greeted him.
“Don’t you start acting all sweet and innocent with me. You are going to pa-“
“Did you know I am beautiful?” I asked cutting him off. I walked past him, taking in his stiffened and shocked figure. I sighed loudly before walking upstairs to my bedroom.
“What the heck?” Gabriele said confused at the whole situation.
Lying on my bed I thought and thought about everything that happened today. I met Marco, got home after getting a rude call from Gabriele, got chased by Gabriele, ran into Marco, he saved my butt, and I kissed him… I kissed him!
Pranking Gabriele could just wait till tomorrow. I am worn out from all this running and thinking. I do believe I have a crush on Marco though. That thought brought a smile on my face as I looked at my appearance in the mirror. What a great day…
(A MOMENT OF GABRIELE’S POV!)
I walked upstairs after Adriana, confused at what just happened. I thought she would be terrified that I was about to get her but no she was like caught up in her own little dream. What in the world happened the whole time she went missing in that building? I don’t like this Adriana… in fact I don’t like Adriana at all. She gets under my skin and I don’t like it…
I went to the doorway of her room and peeked in making sure she didn’t see me. She was lying on her bed smiling at the ceiling, clearly thinking about something. Why do I want to know what’s going through that little blondes head so bad.
A long peaceful sigh came from her once again and I couldn’t help but feel a little at peace seeing her this way. I had to get rid of it… that and get rid of her I don’t like her staying in my apartment. I don’t like anyone staying in my apartment.
Leaving her door way I trudged back to my room and slammed the door closed. I need to think of something a great big plan that will make her go running for her mom. Making her miss her family might do it…
