WINNIE'S POV

"Tesoro"

𝘖𝘩 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵

"Enzo?" Enzo was standing in the entrance of the building, he doesn't look happy.

"Who is that Princess?"

Nathan was standing a little bit in front of me now, like he was protecting me from Enzo.

"Umm....uh.."

"Princess"

"Tesoro"

They both called me at the same time, but still glaring at each other.

"Nathan this is Enzo, Enzo Nathan"

"What is he doing at your place this late?" Enzo was now looking at me.

"He gave me a ride home"

"Princess is there something else you would like to tell me about this guy, aside from his name?"

Nathan was being very serious right now, all his playful side was gone leaving behind only the serious professional doctor.

Before i could open my mouth to say anything, Enzo did.

"Vincenzo, I'm her boyfriend"

I snapped my head back to him with wide eyes.

𝘕𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴𝘯'𝘵 𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘪 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘶𝘵.

"What the fuck is this guy talking about Princess?"

"Stop calling her that"

"He is delusional, right?"

"Tell him Tesoro" i looked at him with tears of frustration brimming in my eyes"

"Yes he is correct"

"What the fuck are you talking about? You're seeing someone?"

Nathan was boiling. I think he is gonna throw a punch at Enzo any minute.

"Do they know?" I knew he was asking about my brothers and parents.

"No" i said quietly.

"Wow" he turned around heading towards his car.

"Nathan please don't...." He paused and stare at me.

I had the tears streaming down my face now. Nathan sighed and came closer to me.

"Stop that" he mumbled, wiping my tears with his thumb cupping my cheek. His angry look was replaced with that of concern.

"I'm sorry i didn't tell y'all, please don't tell them yet. I will tell them later"

"Okay i won't tell anybody" I hugged him which he returned.

"Will you be okay?" he looked behind me at Enzo who was standing silently looking at us.

"A hundred" i know I'm always a hundred percent safe with Enzo.

"Okay take care, i will check up on you later"

"Okay, goodnight" Nathan kissed my forehead. He entered his car and drove off.

I turned around to see Enzo standing straight, his hands deep into his pocket. He was staring at me emotionlessly.

"Hey"

"So you spent the whole day with him, this same '𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥' you know i don't like."

"You shouldn't have said that to him"

"You don't want him to know we are dating?"

"No, at least not now"

"Why? Does he have feelings for you? Are you ashamed of me? Of our relationship?"

"Enzo that's not true and you know it"

"No i don't"

"You don't understand!"

"Then make me"

"Maybe you should just go" i said tiredly.

"That really what you want?"

𝘋𝘰 𝘪 𝘳e𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘩𝘪𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘰?

I played with my fingers quietly, not giving him any reply.

"I'm sorry Amore mio for making you upset" he said closing the distance between us, he took my small hands into his.

"Let's talk inside" i said

It was a quite elevator ride to the penthouse. We got into the pent house, I dropped my purse, keys and phone on the kitchen counter. I took off my shoes and walked to the living room bare foot.

"I'm not ashamed of you or what we share Enzo. I just don't want anyone from home to know yet"

"My family is so overprotective of me that they will put me in the next flight to US if they find out about me having a boyfriend."

"I need to think of a way to convince them first before telling them about us. Please understand me"

I was actually scared, i didn't know how he was gonna take the whole situation.

"I understand Tesoro"

"I don't like seeing any man around you, i don't care if he is a friend or foe. I"

"I can't just stop talking to them though"

"I don't like Nate" i rolled my eyes

"His name is Johnathan"

It was silent for a while, this is one of those moments i wish i could read Enzo's mind. I was picking on my fingers which is something i always do when I'm nervous.

"Are we okay now?" He asked after the huge silence.

"Yeah" i mumbled

"I'm sorry" i mumbled again.

"Come here" i stood up and walked to him, he pulled me down to straddle him.

"I'm not stupid Amore, i know you have been keeping distance from me since you left my house that day"

"I talked myself into thinking our relationship might be a mistake. I mean your brother who knows you better thinks so" i shrug

"So all this is because of Cassio's reaction to you?" it didn't sound like a question.

"You have me Baby, i am here you for as long as you're going to have me. Don't think silly things, talk to me when something is bothering you"

My face was taken into his hands as he made sure i looked into his eyes while he was talking to me.

"Yeah i promise to talk to you when I'm bothered about something."

"Good. I missed you" he brought me closer and hugged me tight.

"You saw me yesterday" i giggled

"It wasn't the same" he almost pouted

"I missed you too" i grinned broadly. I pulled his head to my chest and ran my fingers through it.

"Have you eaten?" I asked Enzo after a while.

"Hmm" he hum

"I will take that as no" i tried to stand up but he wouldn't let me go.

"Baby i wanna go make you something to eat" i held his face to me.

"Can i stay the night?" Looking at him now i can see how tired he looks

"You don't have to ask" i smiled.

"I will help you in the kitchen"

"Okay, i know i won't win this argument" he chuckled at my statement.

He helped me chopped the carrots and sausage, while i prepared the food. Pasta is his favorite food so I'm making him pasta.

"Are you free tomorrow?" Enzo wrapped his arm around me from behind.

"Yes, tomorrow is my lazy day" i grinned up at him, he gave my lips a quick kiss and i move my gaze back to the pasta.

"We are going to my parents for dinner"

"Tomorrow?" My eyes was wide, i was facing him fully.

"Yes"

"Isn't it to early? What if they don't like me? Wha...."

"Stop Tesoro, they're so eager to meet you"

"Really?"

"Si you will be fine, now check on what we're cooking"

I turned back to the stove to finish off, i got the plates out and dished out the pasta.

"Sit" he sat on the counter top

"Dinning Enzo" i scolded him

"But I'm comfortable here" he whined like a kid.

This man right here can be a 5 years old in the body of a 31 years old. I shook my head at him.

We ate over small conversations, then headed to bed, Enzo had his head on my chest while i ran my hand through his head and that's how we both fell asleep.
