Chapter Sixteen

Nolia

I don’t know if I am doing the right thing being Roman’s fake girlfriend, but it isn’t the most awful thing I could ever do. Sometimes it’s even fun. Over the last two and a half weeks, the poor man has pretty much let me take his home over. Even going so far as letting me change furniture if I didn’t like it or it wasn’t comfortable…I’m looking at the old couch - or I would be if I hadn’t donated it already. It felt like sitting on concrete, not the most comfy thing ever. And don’t even get me started on how it felt to try to binge-watch an entire eight-season show on it.

Still, I didn’t think he would let me just buy a new one. He even went with me to try a couple of them out. I didn’t think couch hunting could be so much fun but with Rome, it was. And the art hanging in the hall that he bought at the gallery showing he took me to when he found out I really love art, wasn’t really matching any of the other art so he told me to find new stuff for the whole penthouse.

And the other evening, when he came back home early, and I was cleaning out the fridge and stove…because I may or may not have burnt a pizza in the oven and made the whole penthouse smell like I was burning cardboard and burnt pepperoni incense. Then felt bad about just cleaning the stove so I cleaned the entire kitchen, and he caught me rocking out in nothing but a tiny night dress and a pair of panties. That was a completely new experience for me and I’m still trying to decipher what the hell he meant when he said he was very thankful the penthouse elevator didn’t open right to the living room. It sounded like an insult to my dancing techniques, but his eyes weren’t sending me insulting looks as they ran up and down my body.

And last night, I fell asleep on the couch… and woke up in his bed. He said it was just ‘easier’ for both of us that he took me to his bedroom when I flaked out on the Star Wars marathon - the originals, not the new ones. I don’t see how it was easier for anyone, but I do have to admit to sleeping like a baby curled up next to his big, warm body. It was only in the morning that I got uncomfortable when I woke up wrapped around him with my dress up around my waist and his hands glued to my ass.

And what he said…

“There will be a day when I can stay in bed with you and take full advantage of this opportunity…but I have a meeting at nine this morning and can’t un-fucking-fortantly. You won’t always be so lucky, Sunshine.”

What did that even mean? Why would he act like I’m going to end up in
