Chapter 18
"What are you doing here?" I asked glaring at him.
" Same thing you're doing" he replied
" I live here" I said annoyed
" It not like I had a choice, my parent insisted that I come"
"And you couldn't get lost on the way"
" I tried, anywhere would definitely be better than here "
" Why do you have to be so unbearably annoying" I asked
" What can I say, I'm the way I am babe" he shrugs.
I groaned " can you not call me that "
" No...pe"
I signed and started heading towards the kitchen, he alongside me, he closed the distance between us and made every hair in my body stand. I was trying so hard to restrain myself.
" I must say princess, you look divine in that dress" I scorn as I took a step away from him and turned to flick his forehead.
" Keep it in your pant, Richard would flip if you keep on behaving like this"
So much for self control......

My eyes shot open as a trickle of sweat slid down my head. I groaned as the sunlight hit my face, I closed my eyes back before blinking them open again. I turn to face Giovanni only to find him awake with his eyes on me in admiration.
" Good morning beautiful" Giovanni greeted me with those sparkling ocean eyes.
" Good morning handsome" I giggled.
" Last night was a delight, the best sleep I've had in years " he chuckled.
I gasped as I recalled what happened in the early hours of the morning, I became aware of my very bare body and subconsciously pulled the cover to conceal myself.
Giovanni smirks, then proceeds to tuck a strain of my hair behind my ear, making my inside tingle. " You're gorgeous, fucking breathtaking. I can admire your body for the rest of my life".
" T..thank you" I responded with a blush.
He pulled me closer against his chest and placed a soft kiss on my forehead. " I'm officially and completely insane about you Mrs Reeves, I love you so much."
My heart stopped momentary, did he just say what I think it is
" I love you so much that I don't mind going insane" he repeats himself
"I,..Gio" my voice begins to tremble, I couldn't say anything else but stare at him.
" You don't need to say it back now. I'm ready to wait till you're ready to say it back, because you are worth waiting for." He said and I could see he meant every word that came out of his mouth.
Do I love him? I know I feel something for him but I wasn't sure if it was love yet and I really appreciated the fact that he gave me time to think about my feelings for him. I raised my eyes up to meet him as we stared at each other, letting our eyes convey what I couldn't.
I saw him lean in to kiss me but before he could I drew back using my hands to block my lips, he furrowed his eyebrows in confusion.
" Morning breath" I blurted out. He rolled his eyes at my excuse.
" I don't mind," he shrugged.
" Well I do" I replied back within a second
" Ouch! That hurt" he said feigning hurt
" You're.." before I could finish my statement I was cut off by his lips on mine. I pouted at him but couldn't help the smile that grazed my face.
" I will order us breakfast in the meantime, why don't you freshen up". He suggested getting up from the bed.
" Gio, not now" I whined, giving him my best puppy eyes.
" Amore, the idea of staying in bed with you all day, cuddling up with you, sounds tempting but I don't want to spend our last day here in bed only" he said, I couldn't help but agree with him.
" Okay, but what are we going to do?" I asked, looking at him expectantly.
" What about snorkeling or we could go surfing?" he suggested, my eyes widened in surprise and excitement.
I let out a squeal, sitting up in delight resulting in the bedspread falling off down to my lap. Giovanni's hand went straight to grabbing my breast.
" Gio" I squeaked, pulling the bedspread up to cover my breasts.
" I couldn't help myself" he smirked " go ahead and freshen " he walked towards the door to go out the room
" Gio" I called as he turned back to look at me " thank you for giving me time and waiting for me * I said.
" I will always wait for you Roy, there's nobody but you" he said before walking out.

We decided to go snorkeling so Giovanni booked a private cruise for us for snorkeling and it was a beautiful experience. It truly was a sight, looking at these vibrant colored fishes. I couldn't help but grin like a kid and I must say this honeymoon was better than I expected.
I was sitting on Giovanni's lap with him occasionally brushing his nose along my jawline, planting small kisses here and there as I gushed about how beautiful and colorful the Corals were.
We got home around late that night after having dinner, we were going to leave in the afternoon the next day, which I was grateful for since I was tired but still excited by today's event. I quickly freshen up climbing onto the bed, waiting for Giovanni to freshen up and come to bed also.
As I waited for Giovanni, my mind drifted to the dream I had this morning, trying to make sense of it. I could make out my parents house in the dream but what I couldn't see was the face of the guy I was arguing with. I didn't know if it was a memory or just a dream.
" Hey, are you alright?" Giovanni asked, he laid on the other side of the bed, drawing me closer. We both smuggled close to each other. I rested my head on his shoulder with a blanket covering ourselves from the cold.
" I'm fine," I said with a small smile.
I felt the muscular arms tighten their holds around me " what is it Roy, you were happy just a few minutes ago so tell me what caused the change.".
"It's nothing really, I just had a weird dream, that's all" I said, kissing him on the lip.
" You would tell me if anything was bothering you right?" he asked with a worried expression.
" I will," I said, assuring him. " Thank you for this honeymoon Gio"
"Anything for you Roy "he replied, pecking me on the cheek.
"Good night Mrs. Reeves"
"Good night Mr. Reeves"
