Lunas pov

It's ripping me apart.
It's been one week since I've spoke to Stefa. We were never this long apart from each other. I miss her voice.

And I finally realized that I reacted wrong. I didn't even let her explain herself. I don't know if she even has to explain herself cause she did nothing wrong. It was just my anger which causes all this stress. I couldn't think straight.
And know I feel guilty.
I know Stefa won't come to me first cause she would never do something like that when it's not even her fault. I have to apologize to her first.
I look up.
I'm standing in front of Álvaros mansion right now and try to pull me together. I have to go in now.
I rang the door and a young maid opens it.
,,Oh, hello miss Vastello! Your sister is in the kitchen if you want to see her. Should I show you where the kitchen is?" she smiled at me and bows.
,,Thank you!" I smile back ,,And no need. I'll find it myself."
I walked down the floor and found the kitchen.

Stefa was sitting on a chair on the table and eats cornflakes.
,,Stefa"
She looks surprised up.
,,Luna? You're here! Finally..." the last word she whispers.
I hug her. And she hugs me strongly back.
,,I'm sorry" I mumble in her long black hair.
,,No it's okay. I can understand why you overreacted. You needed me. And you thought I ignored you."
,,But that wasn't right from me! I can't believe that I yelled at you because of-"
,,It was my fault" Álvaro steps into the room with his whole black suit. ,,I made Stefa angry at me and I broke her phone. And I'm sorry that you guys end up like this for a whole week"

Wait...is he apologizing for something between Stefa and me?
That's actually...cute of him.

I look surprised in Stefas eyes and she looks wide eyed at me too.
Then she smirks.

She grabs me by my arm and drags me out of the kitchen while whispering in my ear ,,You see? He's actually nice and sweet" she says full of proud.

God they are cute.

I turn around to glance at Álvaro and see him how he looks at Stefas back with dreamy and "newly in love" eyes.

Are they good together now?!

I follow Stefa upstairs to her room and we sit down together on her fluffy big bed.
,,Did you see that Luna? The last few days Álvaro was always so sweet and thoughtful. And now he's even apologizing. I didn't know he's this nice. But he really treats me like his princess. He feeds me. He comes every night in my room to say good night and when he's working he sends me every hour a message asking if I'm okay or if I need something"

,,Hahahaha omg Stefa you just had a bad picture of him! See! He's so nice. When I first spend time with him with Liam together I already knew that he's a good and funny man."

I'm happy that Stefa finally begins to notice his nice side.

,,Uhmm Stefa?" I bump flirty on her shoulder.
,,What is it?" she asks suspicions with one eyebrow raised.

,,Did you two...you know...did it..?" I smirk."

,,Luna!"

,,WHAT?! I wanna know!!" I laugh and see how Stefas face gets a red tone.

,,Yeah..." she says shyly.

,,OMGGGG" I hug her tightly and can't hide my happiness. I never would've thought that these two would actually work out.

,,And how is it with Liam?" She asks also with a happy voice.

,,Ohhh uhmmm..."

,,Don't say you two break up!"

,,No we didn't! It's just...we're fine but...I think I avoided him a little...you know..the whole week my mind was by you and I couldn't think'bout something different and we don't see each other the whole day anyway because of his work but now I didn't wanted to spend time with him at night neither...I felt like I had to punish myself cause I felt so guilty and-"

,,Luna stop! God you're an idiot" she grabs my shoulder. ,,Poor Liam...you not only punished yourself...but him too. And he didn't even do anything... God why do all the man have to struggle too when we have stress"

Stefas pov

It's 8pm now and I spent my whole day in my room with Luna just talking when I hear a knock on my door.

,,Come in" I say.
The door slowly opens and Álvaros face peeks into my room.
,,Is Luna gone?"
,,Yeah she went away an hour ago"

Then he completely comes into my room and closes the door behind his back.
I sit on my bed while he slowly walks towards me with his heavy steps. He's still wearing his suit but he looks much more exhausted then this morning.
He kneels down in front of me and lays his head on my lap. His arms are squeezing me tightly.
I play with his hair.
,,Stefanie Erienne. My wife"
,,Yeah?" I ask with a quiet voice.
,,Do you want to marry me?"
,,Hmh" I mumble.
Do you want to marry me..
Wait wha-?
,,Álvaro but we are married"
,,I know but do you want to marry me again?"
He raises his head and looks up at my face.
,,With love? Do you want to wear a ring that I put on your finger with true love? If I put a new ring with love onto your finger, then do you want to share a bed with me? Do you want to grow old with me? Do you want to have kids with me one day? Do you want to lead the Mafia with me on my side?"

,,I...uhm I-"

,,You don't have to say anything. I'll go to my room now and I'll wait until you're ready to give me a response.

With these words he stand up and walks out of the room, leaving me there with a shocked expression. Did he just...made me a proposal?

——

I woke up early in the morning.
I don't know if I could say "woke up", cause I couldn't even sleep properly.
My mind thrifted the whole night to Álvaros words. And know I'm lying there with red burning eyes, staring at the wall above me.

This is horrible. I can't think straight.
It's not like I don't like Álvaro...but we don't even know us for that long. And now I should get married with a man with true love and have kids with him one day? Am I ready for this?
But we already slept together though! And we actually...do it every night so...
Argghh.
Why is this so difficult. It's not even like he's a stranger. He's my husband.
But...do I want to grow old with him? Is he the one?

After a couple hours I decide to stand up and walk out of my room. It's 3 pm.
Wow I stayed quite long in bed thinking'bout him.

I walk down the stairs and already have a weird feeling in my stomach.
Something feels off...
It's too quiet.
And it's too dark.
I look around me.
Yeah the windows are all blacked up! So theres no sunlight.
Where is everyone?

,,Hello?" I say nervously into the dark.

I reached the floor and already smell...flowers and candles?
Yes!

It's the smell of candles.
And right!
There are petals and red candles on the ground!

I follow these petals and they lead me along the floor to Álvaros office. But his door is closed.
I knock on it but no one answers. So I decide to open slowly the door and...
I widen my eyes.
This is...amazing.
His office is full of teddy bears.
I can't even count them. This must be over 500 teddys.
I gasp.
His whole office is like a pool of bears I could literally swim in it.
I hear Álvaros breath on my back.
,,Please say it. Do you love me too? Just say yes please"
I turn around to look the beautifulest man in his dark begging eyes. My husband...who wants to be my husband.

The most powerful man is begging in front of me. With a red rose in his hand. With his hairs styled just for me. With a white shirt and a suit jacket. And with his office full of bears?!
,,I..." I try to speak. ,,w-when did you get all these teddys?" I gasp.

,,Doesn't matter. I thought you'd like it" he says and steps nearer.

My heart is racing like crazy when I feel his big figure in front of me.
I-I love this man...every time he stands next to me I feel like I can't breath...the whole day I wait for him coming back from work...every hour I wait for his message...
And the only man I think of is him. The only man I could imagine having babys with is him. The only man I want to share every single night a room with is him...

,,I love you too" I manage to say finally.
Finally...these words wanted to come out so long ago but I just couldn't bring myself to it.
Finally.

Suddenly he throws himself at me like a little childish boy and we both fell down on the teddybears.
We cuddle together in them and just lay there.
This feels so stupid but I really...like this whole thing...
Yeah, I think I like this.
