Chapter 20 - Chapter 19.

ROSE P.O.V.

After an hour

I'm wrapped around someone's strong muscular branches, he held me close, incredibly close…

"Beloved, please don't leave me" he begged, his voice was familiar but it held a hint of sadness, an undefined sorrow that squeezed my heart.

I wanted to promise him, I will never, but I couldn't…

Everything is blurry. For a second I couldn't understand who or where I am. I don't know how I got into this bed or how I got into these clothes. Then I tried to process everything slowly.

I'm in a room and it's really dark. The walls are painted black and the ceiling a deep ash gray color. I'm tucked safely inside of a black silky duvet with a dark brown silk pillow beneath my head. I'm wearing Lorenzo's clothes.

I can see everything clearly now. Slowly trying to get up, I felt my head heavy and spinning with every little movement.

I tried to remember what happened that I ended up here but that just makes my head hurt more. I tried standing up but a voice stopped me.

"Rest." It said,

It's Lorenzo, he was standing near the window, staring outside but didn't look at me. I got up but couldn't stand due to the throbbing in my head.

"I told you to rest," he ordered, making his way over to me.

"What happened? Why is my head aching so much?" I implored in pain.

"You slipped," he responded, still not looking at me.

What happened? Everything was alright but now why is he behaving like this?

I hate his bipolar personality.

"I want to go back to my dorm," I announced. I wasn't going to be with him just to bear with this attitude of his.

"Okay, I'll drop you there," He answered.

'See, he also does not wish to be with you,' My subconscious yelled.

Sighing, I tried standing up again but couldn't due to the pain in my head.

"Aww, my head hurts!" I cried, clutching my hair as if it would help.

The minute I said it, strong arms quickly lifted me in bridal style as though I was a light doll.

"I can walk," I argued.

Why is he now becoming so concerned? A minute back he was not even looking at me.

"Yea...I saw," he taunted making me roll my eyes,

Oh no! Again this bipolar attitude…

On our way to the parking garage, I realized that he lived in a penthouse apartment in one of the most luxurious buildings in the city.

As we were waiting for the elevator that was still on the 12th floor, I decided to burrow my head into Lorenzo's chest due to the amount of throbbing in it.

The elevator finally stopped at our floor and the person who came out from within had me completely baffled.

It was Professor Steel!

He lifted a brow at Lorenzo and Lorenzo just shrugged.

If one would ask me what was the most embarrassing moment of your life, I would have given this one as my answer.

My own history Professor watching me in Lorenzo's arms. I felt so embarrassed that I wanted to either kill myself or 'Mr. Obvious'.

"I'm gonna kill you Lorenzo!" I muttered under my breath.

Lorenzo ignored the professor, he didn't even greet him and now we both are in the elevator 'alone'.

"LORENZO HOW DARE YOU! HE IS OUR PROFESSOR, but…...what is he doing here?" I inquired confused

He just rolled his eyes and replied, "He is my uncle."

What? He's Lorenzo's uncle. Now I know why he introduced him on day one.

"You can put me down now, I'm fine,"

I told him, not knowing who else would see me in his arms and make me feel embarrassed.

"Why? Are you not enjoying Senõrita?" He teased, making me blush the darkest shade of red. I tried to cover my face in his chest taking in his heavenly scent.

It was my heaven...

"Sembri caldo nella mia camicia signorina" (Translation: You look hot in my shirt Senõrita) he says.

I turned my head to take a look at his face so that I could understand what he was saying but his eyes were focused on my lips.

There's a 'Ting' again and the elevator opens revealing a short old woman carrying a paper bag in her hands whose eyes grew bigger like an owl when she saw us. But my 'Mr. Obvious' ignored her and came out of the elevator making his way to his Lamborghini.

Today is gonna be the most embarrassing day of my life.
