Serena got up and followed him into the kitchen. They started making breakfast together. When they finished cooking, they carried their plates into the dining room and sat down together at the table."How does pasta sound?" Sergio asked her.Serena smiled at him "Fine."After they had eaten, they went and put the dishes away. When they were done, Sergio suggested that Serena should try getting some rest. So, she laid back down on the bed and closed her eyes. She fell asleep almost instantly. Sergio was just starting to wake up when he felt something brushing lightly against his bare chest. He blinked a couple of times and looked down to find Serena curled up against him, asleep. His breath caught in his throat. He had never seen her look so beautiful. Her hair was spread out all over his pillow and her eyelashes rested upon her cheeks, casting shadows on her face. He brushed a strand of hair out of her face and looked at her lovingly. He ran his fingers through her hair. His heart
Serena couldn’t help but laugh quietly at Sergio’s statement. She knew Sergio missed their bedroom ever since he first moved in with her. Sergio has always liked their homey environment and Serena couldn’t blame him for wanting to continue that lifestyle. However, it is too early to say that they are moving back to their old house. Sergio was ready to start a family with Serena, so she decided that she is okay with their current manor. Although she is glad that Sergio will be happy wherever he is, she also wants to make sure that Sergio’s happiness will still be a priority in his life.They spent their entire day today at work and today Sergio told Serena that she didn’t have to work late anymore.“You deserve a rest,” Sergio stated.“I guess,” Serena responded.“Come,” Sergio said taking her hand in his and lead her to their bedroom. He placed her on their king size bed and climbed onto her lap.When he straddled Serena’s waist, he pressed his lips to hers hungrily. Serena gladly a
As Sergio got ready to make breakfast, Serena went into the kitchen and poured herself a glass of water. She took a sip of her water before she continued watching Sergio preparing breakfast. A familiar smell reached her nose.“What are you making?” Sergio stopped stirring the batter and turned around.“Pancakes,” he replied.“Really? Is that what I smell?” Sergio nodded. “Good because I can’t wait for it!”Serena took the two plates Sergio set on the table and sat down next to him.“It smells amazing! Thanks!” she said excitedly.“You’re welcome, sweetheart.” Sergio gave her another quick peck on the cheek.Soon enough, the food was ready. Sergio carried one plate over to Serena’s place and put it down. Then he sat on his seat and waited for Serena to finish her breakfast. After eating the pancakes and washing her plate and fork together, Sergio helped Serena clean up the dishes. After they finished cleaning up, Sergio brought the plates into the kitchen sink. He turned on the tap t
“Be right back,” Sergio whispered before walking out the room.Serena woke up a few hours later, yawning as she stretched her arms out and curled up on the bed. Her stomach grumbled loudly.“Hungry?” Sergio’s voice suddenly said behind her.Serena jumped a bit in surprise and turned around to see Sergio standing right next to her bed with a plate in his hand. Sergio placed the plate on the nightstand next to Serena’s pillow and sat down on the edge of the bed facing her. “Thank you, Sergio,” Serena said. “What are we having?”“Pancakes and sausages,” Sergio answered as he picked up the fork and knife from the nightstand.“Wow, those sound delicious!”Sergio chuckled.“Here, try one,” Sergio said, handing Serena her plate.After taking a bite from the pancake, Serena closed her eyes, savouring it.“Delicious,” she murmured.“So did you like it?” Sergio asked.“Of course, I liked it! How could I not? This is the first time I get to eat this delicious food in days,” Serena smiled as sh
Sergio grabbed hold of Serena’s waist and lifted her off of the bed. He walked them both towards the door, while keeping a tight grip on her waist.“We’ll wait till I get downstairs to come back up, okay?” Sergio instructed her once they reached the bottom of the stairs.“Okay,” Serena smiled.Sergio let go of her waist and kissed her gently. Then, he went over to where he had left his jacket, and slipped it on.“Stay safe,” Sergio whispered. “Don’t stay in my room alone, especially after this evening.”“I won’t. You know how clingy I can be sometimes,” Serena said, chuckling.“Yeah, yeah,” Sergio chuckled, patting her head.The next day, after waking up early, Sergio brought Serena some breakfast and sat beside her as she ate.“Thanks for everything yesterday,” she said, smiling.“I promised, didn’t I?” Sergio replied.“Yes, but still thank you,” Serena insisted. “For everything that you did for me.”“You don’t need to thank me,” Sergio insisted. “You’ve saved my life many times a
Sergio stared at her for a while, thinking.“I hope you are comfortable sleeping in here,” he said. “I don’t want you getting cold or uncomfortable.”“No, I won’t,” Serena assured him. “As long as you are comfortable with it.”“I promise I am,” Sergio said, caressing her hair.The two of them sat there quietly for a few minutes. Then Serena stood up, looking down at Sergio.“Do you want to sleep together again tonight?”Sergio glanced up at her.“Of course,” he answered, placing a soft kiss on her lips. “But let’s just stay in here tonight, alright? We can go to bed after dinner.”“Okay,” Serena smiled, sitting down next to him again. “Can I still cuddle you if I get sick?”Sergio rolled his eyes playfully.“Yes, but only if I get to spoon you too.”“Deal.”“You need to come up with a better name for yourself,” Sergio says, watching the sun setting across the city skyline.He turns to look at Serena. “Don’t look at me like that,” Serena sighs, smiling. “It’s not like I haven’t t
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
