Sergio closes his eyes, feeling himself relax. They stay like this for a minute or two until Sergio opens his eyes, gazing into Serena’s. He looks at her for a moment longer before he slowly leans toward her.“Are you sure you’re alright?” Sergio asks, concerned.“Yeah,” Serena nods. “I’m fine. Everything is fine.”Sergio pulls her into a tight hug, resting his cheek on top of her head.“Promise me that you’ll come to me whenever you need to talk about any of that stuff,” he whispers in her ear.“I promise,” Serena mumbles, tightening her hold on Sergio. She can feel her heart racing in her chest, knowing full well Sergio can feel it too.“I love you,” Sergio whispers.“Love you too,” Serena whispers, leaning toward Sergio again, kissing him tenderly.Serena glances nervously at her reflection in the mirror. After a couple of weeks of dating Sergio, everything seems to go well for them and everything seems to calm down.Of course, there’s still the slight tension in their relationship
“Why? Is that what’s happening right now? I’ve been trying to get closer to you all week but he’s been pushing us away. I swear he’s been doing it on purpose. He must be planning something behind our backs. I’m pretty sure it’s his own plan to set us up.”“I think he’s just looking out for my best interest,” Sergio replies while smiling. “Trust me, he wants you and I to get along. Believe me, he cares about both of us very much.”“I doubt that,” Serena smirks. “How can you be sure that he doesn’t have something planned against us?”“I really don’t think he does,” Sergio says firmly.“Okay,” Serena shrugs, nodding her head reluctantly. "I still have doubts though.”“Don’t worry,” Sergio assures her. “As long as he does the same, we’ll be alright. Just remember that I am always here for you, you know that?”“I do.” Serena smiles, giving him a quick peck on his lips. After that, Serena’s mood improves considerably. Now, that she knows for sure that he doesn’t suspect them of being s
He rolls over onto his side, putting an arm under his pillow. He holds onto her hand gently, holding it between his. She doesn’t move.She seems so peaceful.So innocent.Serena doesn’t realize that he’s watching her. She just sleeps soundly, unaware of his stare.He smiles to himself. She’s beautiful.It’s strange. When he first saw her, he didn’t think so. He thought that she looked like someone else, someone he wasn’t familiar with.But he soon realizes that she looks exactly the way she always did, except maybe a little bit paler than before. A little tired maybe, he thinks. He can’t remember the last time she was tired. Maybe she’s just been resting a lot lately. Or maybe something else is bothering her. Perhaps she misses her family. Perhaps she misses Sergio.But Serena really looks so perfect like real Goddess for Sergio. So beautiful.He smiles to himself, looking away. She really is beautiful and he wants nothing more than to be able to give her all that he deserves. He sh
Her eyes are brimming with tears but Sergio can barely look at them. His gaze keeps darting towards her neck.Her necklace. Sergio feels guilty as hell. How could he? Why does he feel so bad? She told him that her necklace means everything to her. They're supposed to be together forever. Yet Sergio broke it.It was wrong. He doesn't deserve her.A tear falls down Serena's cheek. Sergio wipes it away.They stay silent, staring at each other for a few moments until Sergio speaks."Let's go back outside."Serena nods and Sergio leads her outside, sitting down beside her on the bench."What did you dream about?" He asks her, keeping his gaze on her."Just dreams." Serena replies quietly."What kinds of dreams?"Serena sighs and stares at her hands. "I dreamed about us," She begins. "Us playing hide and seek," She adds smiling.Sergio chuckles lightly. "Didn't we play hide and seek before?" He raises an eyebrow."Yeah." She nods and chuckles too. "It was fun."He smiles. "I love those
He stops there and kisses her shoulder, nibbling on it a little bit. Then he moves lower, grazing his teeth against the skin and sucking on it slightly as he continues trailing light kisses across the expanse of her bare skin, slowly kissing her shoulder again. Serena shivers underneath him and pulls him closer, placing her hands on his hips, squeezing them gently.When Sergio kisses her chest he suddenly stops. “You okay?” He murmurs.She bites her lip, avoiding his eyes as she nods. “Yup.”“Are you sure? You look upset.” He questions.She nods again, pushing him off her. “Yup!” She lies, standing up. “Gotta go to bed. Goodnight!”Sergio frowns as he follows her, grabbing her hand. “Wait! I wanna talk to you.”“Not now, Sergio. Goodnight!” She says again before turning around, leaving the room.Once Sergio’s out of sight, she collapses into a chair. Tears roll down her cheeks as she buries her face in her hands. She’s furious and hurt and sad. She’s angry at both him and her parent
The two of them keep making out for a while, before eventually starting to move together slowly. Their kisses become hungrier, faster, and they start rolling their hips forward. This goes on for quite sometime until they finally come to a rest against each other again.“Sorry. I just got carried away.” Sergio apologizes.Serena giggles and shakes her head. “Don’t apologize. It’s our first time doing this, after all.”Sergio chuckles before leaning forward and planting a long trail of kisses down her jawline and to the side of her neck. She moans in response. “God, Sergio. That feels so good.” She whines.“Does it?” Sergio asks as he bites on her collarbone.“Yes,” She says. “I don’t think I’ve ever been this turned on before.”“Why is that?” Sergio asks curiously. “Is it because we haven’t done this yet?” He pulls his head up and glances down at her lips.“Not necessarily,” She says, licking her lower lip slightly. "I think you make me turned on!"Sergio raises an eyebrow at her. “
They sit there on the couch in silence for a while. Eventually though Serena notices that Sergio is starting to nod off again. So, she stands up slowly and helps him off the couch and leads him to his bedroom. Once he’s settled on his bed she climbs onto the bed behind him and wraps her arms around him tightly.Sergio lets out a content sigh and rolls over slightly to face her. “I love you, Serena.” He tells her.“I love you too.” She responds happily.Sergio presses his forehead against hers. “Goodnight.” He mutters tiredly.“Goodnight.” She says back softly.She lays there for a while, holding onto Sergio’s body as tightly as she can and feeling the rise and fall of his chest underneath her palms. He’s warm, she decides. It feels nice. Safe. She thinks about the conversation they had earlier and about what it all means. She knows what she wants; what she needs. Now she just has to figure out whether or not she believes in it. She remembers reading somewhere that faith isn’t easy
“Well, it’s kind of stupid, really.” He admits.Serena frowns a bit. “No, no it’s not. Tell me.”“Promise you won’t laugh?” He asks.“I promise.” She assures him.He swallows thickly. “Alright. Well, I… I wanted to ask you this morning…” He takes a deep breath and closes his eyes for a brief moment, preparing himself for whatever he’s about to say next. Then he continues. “But I chickened out, and didn’t actually do it. But now that I think about it, I should have done it anyway. I should have told you sooner. I should have told you ages ago. Or maybe I should have said it yesterday.” He lets out a heavy sigh, looking down again at the ground.“Sergio? What are you talking about?” Serena prods.Sergio looks up at her and meets her eyes again. “You remember the day that we met?” He asks her.Serena nods her head.“Do you remember what happened afterwards?”She thinks back to that day. She vaguely recalls hearing her mother call her name as she ran away from home and running down the s
"It sounds like your husband was really great." He remarked. She nodded slowly, not saying anything in response.Julian knew that she probably needed to process what happened before she could continue talking to him about it. He waited patiently.After a few moments, she took a deep breath and lifted her head."Do you remember when I said that my mother passed away a year ago? Well, it wasn't actually a death. It was a suicide." She revealed quietly. "We had just moved here after that." Julian nodded. He remembered the day perfectly. He had taken her to visit her mother and she had shown them around the house. They had visited the cemetery and Serena had talked about her mother for the entire time.She seemed happy. It was obvious how fond of her mother she was. Julian smiled slightly at the memory."Well, she did it. I think that my father may have been responsible. After he found out, he got violent. And he didn't take it well when she killed herself." Serena explained. She shrugg
The sound of soft footsteps alerted Julian to the presence of another person entering the room. He turned around and gave his visitor a weak smile."Hi" He whispered. She returned the gesture with a soft smile of her own."How are you?" She asked concerned, moving to sit down next to him. He glanced at her briefly and shrugged."I'm alright. Tired. I think I caught a cold. I feel pretty gross, too. My throat is hurting." He answered honestly. She chuckled."That happens sometimes when you get sick. Have you eaten anything?" She asked him. He shook his head. "I can cook you something.""No, no. I can eat when I have the chance." He protested."You shouldn't. It can cause more harm than good." She told him. He sighed quietly."I know. But I'll eat anyway. If it means that I won't starve to death, I'll eat." He insisted. She laughed again."Okay" She agreed after a beat.Silence fell between them as they both stared blankly at the wall opposite of them. After a few minutes of silence, h
"I see…" She paused for a moment before she spoke again. "Can I ask you something though?" She inquired. Julian nodded absentmindedly. "What happened?" "Why did you have that conversation with her?""Because…” He started explaining vaguely. “Because…" He trailed off as he tried to find the words to explain to her. It was true that he didn't want to burden her with anything concerning his relationship with Serena. However, he knew that he couldn't hide things from his family forever. If he did, then eventually they would discover that something was wrong with him. He sighed heavily as he ran his hands through his hair in frustration."Dad, can you give me a minute? I'll be right back" He whispered. Without waiting for his father to respond, he ended the call and went back inside the room. He stood behind the couch for a few moments as he listened to the soft sound of Serena's breathing. He could barely make out any sounds from the living room.He approached the sleeping girl slowl
“Yeah, I’m fine. Don’t worry.” She smiled reassuringly, hoping that her boyfriend would believe her. Julian smiled back at her.“Alright then” He said in response. He leaned forward and pressed another tender kiss onto her lips. A few seconds later he released his fiancée from his embrace and turned to open the horse carriage. Before leaving the parking lot he glanced at his wife once more. “Stay inside, all right? No wandering around alone.” He added.“Sure. Don’t worry.”“I don’t care if you stay inside the whole time, I will still worry.”“Okay” She laughed and waved at him as he drove away. She waited until he disappeared from view before returning to sit down on the sofa once again. She was silent for several minutes, pondering what he had told her before. As she sat there and stared ahead at nothing particular, she suddenly felt like she was suffocating.She took in a deep breath and closed her eyes for a second. When she opened them again, she found herself sitting there sta
He smiled gently and leaned forward and placed a soft kiss on his fiancée's forehead. She chuckled quietly and moved her hands to hold the back of his head. They stayed like that for a few moments before Julian pulled away."I need to go check on something." He announced getting up from the couch.Serena watched curiously as her husband headed towards the kitchen. She tilted her head to the side and crossed her arms in front of her chest."Do you think that he might be cheating on me?" Serena whispered to herself.Suddenly the sound of footsteps caught her attention. She looked behind her and spotted Julian leaning against the door frame watching her."Hm?" She hummed. He shrugged his shoulders."Nothing. I guess you should come with me." Julian told her as he gestured towards the hallway."Where are we going? And why?" Serena asked."I'm checking if my mother and father are home and if they have any guests." Julian answered as he walked toward the closet to retrieve his jacket and t
After another minute or two he started moving his hand slowly. He caressed her side slowly, enjoying the feeling of his thumb brushing against her tender skin. He pressed a gentle kiss to her inner thigh and started teasing her.“Please….please don’t….stop” Serena begged breathlessly, her eyes still closed. The prince smirked and continued to stroke her thigh slowly. He reached the peak again, but hesitated. Just as he was about to push inside her and make her come, there was a knock on the door.Serena froze and tensed in his lap.“Are you expecting anyone?” Julian asked calmly as he continued to stroke her inner thigh slowly. The princess shook her head no and slowly slid off of his lap.“No, it can’t be my parents. They aren’t home yet." She muttered worriedly. Julian furrowed his eyebrows. Something doesn’t seem right. He looked over to his wife and noticed that she was staring intently at the door. There was fear evident in her blue orbs. What could it possibly be.“Go answer t
“I love you so much Serena.” Julian said placing a few quick pecks on the girl’s lips. He heard some gasps around him and saw that everyone else were looking at him weirdly. He frowned and pulled away from the girl. “We have to pay for these groceries so let’s hurry up okay?” He said before grabbing the shopping basket from her hands.A few minutes later they were leaving the grocery store and Julian couldn’t hold back the huge grin on his face. This is definitely the best day of his life and he wouldn’t change any minute of it. He finally proposed to his beautiful queen and got a yes from her."I am so happy." He thought happily.He looked over to Serena who was walking next to him and noticed that she was also smiling like a fool. As soon as they got in the carriage, he reached out and held her hand. "So many things happened yesterday. Our parents came, I proposed to her, she said yes, she said yes to marrying me and I kissed her." Julian laughed and squeezed the princess’s hand
“You look cute today.” His girlfriend said while looking at the prince who is smiling at himself while wearing his blue coat and holding his hand. “How can I look cute when you are wearing the prettiest thing on earth?” His boyfriend said kissing the redhead’s hand.“You are lucky I love you then.” Serena chuckled taking the boy’s hand and heading towards the exit of the park, the prince couldn’t stop smiling.They arrived at the ice rink where they usually meet each other. Their friends is there already waiting for them and they went to the ice skating rink together. This is where Serena found her boyfriend. He was wearing a red robe with scarf wrapped tightly around his neck, gloves and long coat. The boy was smiling brightly like a mad man while trying to keep his balance on the slippery ice, he looked adorable."Do you like it?" Asked Julian while looking at her. The princess was busy admiring her boyfriend, her heart was beating rapidly inside her chest and she felt herself blu
Suddenly, the dragon let out a deafening roar. It echoed throughout the entire pier and caused many people to yelp in pain and fright. Several people started crying and clutching onto their friends' arms tightly as if they would fall apart at any moment. Serena couldn't take her eyes of the terrifying beast which was now standing proudly right before them, roaring and snorting menacingly. It was impossible to tell how many people were trapped inside those gigantic jaws, as the darkness prevented them from seeing. But judging by the loud growls coming from the creature, they must've been close to death.After a few seconds the roaring sound gradually decreased until it eventually disappeared, leaving behind an eerie silence. The crowd was dead silent. Everyone remained motionless, except for the tears streaming down their cheeks and the shudders that wracked their bodies. No one made a peep or uttered a single word. Everyone was glued to the horrifying creature in front of them, a
