IN THE PREVIOUS CHAPTER

then i saw that cris and cristiano started playing fifa so i left them and georgina called me she told me that the family was about to go out and asked me if i wanted to go with them.

~

what did you expect me to say of course i said yes !

and just like that , i was a part of the ronaldo family outing ... not gonna lie though i did think that me being part of it was either cris forcing or maybe they took me in as a translator.

the kids wanted to go to an amusement park, also known as Disneyland Paris . i did have to warn georgina about certain rides being scary as fuck as the kids are quite young aside from cris .

she thanked me and we went outside where marco was waiting in a black van to fit us all in .
cristiano sat in the front passenger seat while georgina and the kids sat on the second row and behind them were me and cris .

i told marco to be prepared because the ride was about one hour and forty five minutes away from our starting point .

he started to drive and the kids were getting excited but i particularly was .

"i can feel that they like you" cris whispered to me .

"i can feel so too and i'm so happy about it , when i tell you i was stressed out !!" i say back to him.

"i knew they'd like you the moment i saw you in that Gucci store" he says looking straight in my eyes which kinda perturbed me but i still kept the eye contact while talking to him .

i couldn't explain what was going on at that time but that's for sure the time when i realised we couldn't be friends AT ALL.

and i think everyone butt myself realised that . but i was scared to be in a relationship , especially considering how young we both are .

but looking back on it i felt that taking my time was the most appropriate thing to do.

"i really like you you know ?" he said out of nowhere which sort of caught me off guard.

"i appreciate you too otherwise i wouldn't be sitting there next to you !" i say while giggling slightly.

~

georgina heard it and she thought that the two would definitely go far despite their ages . one thing she was sure about is that she'd be snitching to cristiano the moment they would be out of the car .  

~

after about what felt like years we were finally in . since cris was closer to the door he went down first allowing to do so . we then said goodbye to marco and the kids were already getting so excited.

they stayed with georgina and cristiano while me and cris were at the back tryna not to bother them too much.

he then suddenly put his arm around  my neck and continued to walk like it was nothing.

"i will miss you so much !" he said making sure that the ones in the front didn't catch it .

"i missed you so bad those two days how will it be when it's more ?" i said sincerely.

"promise we'll facetime every day at least once" he said with his finger ready for the pinky promise .

"promise" i say as we intertwine our pinky fingers .

we both end up laughing at how childish this looks but deep down i feel like we somewhat knew it was sincere .

then us and the kids wanted to go on a ride but unfortunately they were too young for it so me and cris went in , it was paired flying chairs .

at first it was cool but as we were gradually going up my fear of heights slightly kicked in and i was looking down .

"hey don't look down" he said noticing i wasn't having as much fun as earlier .

"i know that it can be scary if you look down but if you don't it's fun just look at me" he added getting ahold of my hand.

"thank you cris , you're so sweet" i say starting to smile a bit more .

"you deserve all the sweetest words of this world!" he said caressing my hand that he previously took ahold of .

and i couldn't help but smiling to my ears .

after those 3 minutes rides we got off of the ride and while we were going down the stairs where no one could see us , he stopped .

i was confused but i stopped to , we were now facing each other the only thing is that i was confused and he was confident.

i just stood there when he grabbed my head by its sides and effortlessly placed a peck on my forehead.

i didn't even mean to but my smile appeared immediately and that's one thing about me , when i love someone whether it's friends , family or love interests i can't help but be expressive .

i think he got that his move brought me pleasure .

"i want to be honest with you , i have never liked someone this  fast and this much" he said looking straight into my eyes .

AYO CHAT , you can't be more direct than this how can i play dumb now ?????

"trust me , you have become one of the people i cherish the most ! most of the people i cherish the most are either family either long term friends, and you're just you..." i said back smiling as i approached the end of my sentence .

"i have plenty of things to talk about with you but imma do it later cause the time we've spent in this staircase is extremely suspicious... they probably think we're being kidnapped while we're just have ing deep conversations!" he said making me laugh .

when he heard me laugh i think he couldn't help but join in the laughter. people often tell me that i have a very contagious laugh.

we quickly went to join everyone that was waiting for us .

"where were you , you took damn long !" cristiano said laughing .
