Rodney Casimero is a brute! And a liar and a manipulative douchebag! All these were things Caroline wished she could hurl at his face at the moment.
He'd said he'd allow her to have lunch and it was almost 6 now...did he always eat lunch at 5:30?...She was so hungry that she felt annoyed and the piece of blueballs called Rodney had not even had the decency to check in on her. She could be dead and he wouldn't even know. That shrimphead!
Caroline sighed as her tummy rumbled badly, she was famished and halfway into the gates of hell but it seemed dinner time was still a long ways from starting.
She kneeled down beside the bed and clutched her stomach, earnestly praying for a miracle. As if on cue, the door creaked open and someone walked in. A strange young man. He was beautiful, a redhead with a mane of curls, thick lips and strong eyebrows. He was the definition of male dominance in his white shirt and baggy jeans.
"Hi, I'm Rodrigo but you can call me Rigo. I came to fetch you for dinner", he said in a really calm voice, the opposite of Rodney's loud hoarse one.
Caroline smiled a little. "Thank God", she whispered making Rigo smile.
"I can see you were famished", he commented making Caroline a little embarrassed.
"I didn't have any lunch, that's why"
"Oh okay, sure no problem at all", Rigo answered again.
He walked her through a huge hallway, down a couple of winding stairs and then into a really huge space with a long table in the centre.
what century are they living in?, Caroline wondered.
But she kept quiet and allowed him to pull a seat for her. There were two people already seated there. Rodney and a female guest Caroline didn't know.
She smiled at Rigo and sat down, glaring at Rodney for an instant. Rigo smiled a little at her adorable reaction to Rodney and sat down as well. Everyone ate in silence and for the first time after she'd been abducted, Caroline felt happy. Happy that she didn't have to bear Rodney's attitude nor hear his voice.
Rigo filled her plate again for the second time after she cleared it and she smiled.
"thanks", she whispered, earning a glare from both Rodney and his guest.
"That one's a pig", the female guest commented making Caroline almost choke on the piece of pork cutlet in her mouth. She took a sip of water and smiled at the guest.
Rodney stole a glance at Caroline.
Caroline took a deep breath in and huffed it out, before shoving another piece of pork cutlet into her mouth, pushing it down with a glass of red wine. Rigo, attentive as ever, immediately filled up her glass again.
"Thanks Rigo", she said a little too loud, obviously because she was a little dizzy from consuming alcohol.
Rodney quirked a brow, "you're on first name basis now?", he asked in a distasteful tone.
Rigo smiled, giving him a quick nod and a challenging look. He whispered something into Caroline's ear, making her giggle slightly. Rodney didn't miss that, the beautiful smile and how it brightened up her face.
Vanessa Hudgins, the girl beside him smiled up at him but Rodney vaguely felt like looking everywhere but her faceDamn, he's been seeing her for a month now but how is he suddenly tired of her?
Rodney glanced down and momentarily cringed as her fingers caressed his thigh in an upward motion. Caroline and Rigo were still talking, whispering and giggling. Like damn, he hadn't. gone through the trouble of abducting her so she could sit there and warm up to his little brother!
He frowned slightly as he watched them.
"Okay, that's it! Dinner's over...Caroline get back to the room and don't come out again"
Rigo frowned, "I'll take you", he offered and Rodney glared at him the entire time Caroline walked off with him.
"are you okay?", Vanessa asked but Rodney only nodded. He absentmindedly began straining his neck, wondering why Rigo was still not back from escorting Caroline. He got up in a haste and headed for the room. He found his brother halfway on top of her and she was giggling excitedly.
Rodney felt annoyed in that instant. walking over and pulling his brother up.
"What the hell are you doing Rigo?", he asked in a venom laced voice.
"Oh nothing Rod, I tripped and accidentally grabbed her arm. Luckily we fell over the bed and avoided any bruises"
"Oh really?", Rodney asked in a sarcastic voice. He held his brother's shoulder and led him out but Rigo turned at the door and whispered a goodnight to Caroline.
"come on", Rodney dragged him out when you smiled and was about to reply.
"Dude, what is your problem?...shouldn't you be with Vanessa right now?", Rigo asked.
"shut up and go to sleep", Rodney simply said. after he left his brother in his room, Rodney headed towards his room, smiling when he met a very naked Vanessa waiting in bed for him.
